Of course, there are a handful of design similarities that fans of the last Dragon Quest Heroes will recognize. Though it's a sequel, you don't need any context from the first game or Dragon Quest in general to appreciate this one's story and gameplay. Dragon Quest Heroes II distinguishes itself from its equally great predecessor with its free roam-friendly fields of battle, which feel like an homage to the open expanses of mainline Dragon Quest games. And, as one of the many spinoffs of the 20-year-old Dynasty Warriors series, it retains the best elements of the franchise's trademark combat, where you decimate armies with rudimentary, albeit flashy, combos. If it normally takes 100 hours to amass a kill count of 10,000 enemies, this game lets you reach such milestones in less than 10. The gradual addition of new party members, the rollout of plot twists, and other typical genre roadmarkers come at you at a fast clip. Dragon Quest Heroes II is a JRPG on fast forward.
