This is one of the most objectively positive reactions to this I've seen, which is nice. Seriously, people really, REALLY haven't been super hyped for these guys, which is especially rare considering it's a legacy character
Because DQ’s never been popular in the West, so people here just assume it isn’t important or deserves the same respect as say Banjo, which is probably exactly how Japan feels. Just some obscure N64 games that the West loves so much. We should all just be appreciating that it’s even possible for a game like this to have so much love and care put into it and is a celebration of video games as a whole.
Danny Kazari i grew up in a Japanese family and i can tell you that Banjo was a big deal back then. I think the difference between the two is that Banjo has more of a nostalgic value while DQ is an ongoing series. Maybe not the young kids but grown ups are very happy to see Banjo making a come back in Japan as well 😊
I can't believe how low excitement is for not one, but essentially four Dragon Quest protags. Dragon Quest is one of the most important RPG franchises in history, and the fact that we get all this representation in Smash is so awesome. Kinda makes ya feel like the general gaming community just plays Fortnite or some crap. This announcement was amazing and that final Smash with all the Heroes is beautiful.
I have seen anger at why a "franchise that only does well in Japan" would have a character in Smash a Japanese game. Freaking insane are you telling me they have no one else to play out of how many Smash characters that the DQ Heroes are too much. I am so hyped for them especially VIII Hero.
I guess it's mostly people who wanted (INSERT CHARACTER HERE) and were angry that a relatively niche series in the US got a DLC slot. I'd say just give it a few days. They'll either move on or warm up to the character over time. I'd also recommend avoiding stuff like that. Stewing in negativity on the internet can really get tiring.
One of the Hero skins is the DQIV protagonist. You actually could play as a Male or female version of that protag in IV so I'm a little disappointed the girl isn't in Smash. Besides 9, that's the only time you can be female. IV was my first DQ. I've played all except 10 which is Japan only. I am max hype!!!
Super Mario *Bing Bing Wahoo* I really don’t want Goku in Smash, I think there are better more deserving characters to choose from. Just no more Fire Emblem would be nice.
@@JereJK the excitement for a new character, guess it's just not for me. I mean I'm a huge Superman fan. If he got his own game I'd be happy but to play as him in MK ..I'd be like...skip
This E3 has been Dragon Quest heavy and I love it
FinallyJeremy Right, just Dragon Ques Heroes 1&2 are missing now
I have been very tempted to play dragon quest for a year now and this just sold me to it. Goddammit i'm still playing final fantasy
XI finally gets some actual love at E3 as well.

Orca morca That’s why I said probably, I wasn’t totally sure how he was received over there. That makes me really happy to hear though!!
Danny Kazari oh yeah I didn’t mean to call you out haha. Just to give you a perspective on BK as a Japanese audience🙌
Orca morca No worries, I was hoping to find out, so thank you! :)
I love how knowledgeable these guys are. They know the characters, know the techniques, and the references. This is how React should be.

I feel you, everybody complaining about this. This is one of the most hype moments, LOVE DQ!
Didnt even know dragon quest even existed
You should watch Japanese reactions. They have the opposite reaction with DQ and BK.
To be fair, dragon quest isn't big in the states and people are just coming to grips with it.
But I still agree with you though
You want some cheese with that? Here, I'll try to reach you way up there on that soapbox.
Love it. Called it back in November on GameFAQs for Luminary haha. And the others as alt skins works perfectly.
You called nothing.

Mind your manners, son.
@@acidfruitloops
Get rekt lol
Hell yeah DQ8's Protag is here
The Luminary can kick rocks; it's all about Eight.
And DQ3, DQ4 I picked the female protag XD
DQ8 protag reminds me of Serge from Chrono Cross, and that's a good thing.
@@trumps_toupee :
Nah man, it's all about the original hero from III.
there have been some hype reactions, not everyone is into Dragon Quest sadly, I am and I'm so happy to see these four in Smash!
I'm happy at least someone liked the reveal. Seems almost everyone else was just... Indifferent, I guess?

People don't really know DQ but they should because it's one of the best RPG series and XI was so damn good
Yeah, it deserves a lot more attention than it gets. Although it looks like XI's Switch port and this character reveal might change that.
Yeah all smash characters ever revealed are all Japan characters whether you like it or not.
DQ ost are the best...
I love the smile you people make when the music stars
Brandon dancing = pure joy

You can be a girl in DQIII as well
@@ScorchedEarth97 oh you right opps
@@ProGamingN00b no problem
We don't know if you can/can't be the female protags yet.
You know. This setup would've worked well for all those Fire Emblem characters. Just you know name select. 😂
Every React when they see Dharkon, "Bayonetta"
One person (I can't remember who) thought it was Metroid.
@@DemirAros guess not many played the story mode
1:52 "OH DAMN"
I'VE BEEN HAVING THE SAME REACTION SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE TRAILER
So hype!
I just want this one come to ps4...I know that's a day dream...
Maaan, I wanted to see Golden Sun in smash, pls!
Dude he got deconfimed a LOOOOOOONg time ago. I wish Issac or Matthew showed up though
You need to wait next smash game to see Isaac playable
It's a party of 4. I'd say it's one character slot "the hero" and they switch automatically after every few attacks.

Please upload full Nintendo Direct reactions.
Where is uncut full reaction?
hubers not here ugh
You're not gonna upload the whole thing? I went crazy with NMH3 and Panzer dragoon

How did Ben and Damiani identify it so quickly?!
There were leaks all over the place, a data mine as revealed, but people were still hoping it wanst true (in America)
Sigo viéndolo y digo: Japón, te comprendo tanto
Nice
Why is there no "E3 2019" in the the thumbnails this year?
Lack of time. I believe thumbnails will be made and added after E3 has died down a bit, just like last year.
banjo reaction wya
Is this the closest we’re getting Goku in Smash?
Yep
Do you guys unironically want goku on smash?
@@francesco8572 I'm sure plenty of DB fans love that stuff totally unironically with zero self awareness. It's...worrying.
Super Mario *Bing Bing Wahoo* I really don’t want Goku in Smash, I think there are better more deserving characters to choose from. Just no more Fire Emblem would be nice.
Lucario, Ryu and Sonic: Are we a joke to you?
*bAyOnEtTa*
ドラクエ海外人気微妙なんよねー
I like Dragon Quest but this kills the chance of Sora or any other Final Fantasy character ever getting in. Makes me sad.
I mean, who knows. We can't count anyone out now.
Cloud is already in man. Without Dragon Quest there would be no Final Fantasy, or the entire console RPG genre.
Since this comment we've had Sephiroth and Sora. This comment aged like milk and I'm glad to drink it.
Really don't get the whole new character stuff 😂 but ight
What dont you get lol

@@trounbyfire it ain't for you then. But that's fine, to each his own.
trounbyfire yeah I get that. I never even played either of these games so I didn’t get the banjo hype
Damn how many Swordsmen do we need
How many brawlers do we need?
They use spells as well which helps I suppose
More than half the roster uses punches to fight. How many brawlers do we need!?!?!?
How many character that use attacks do we need?
Considering these guys are THE RPG swordsmen, the complain feels a bit entitled.
