So spot of with the DQ music comments. I've only played like 5 DQ games and thought the "they need new music" - comments felt strange. But after seeing these 6 trailers with the same music, I felt the same. They need new music.

I liked all of the games shown and can't wait to play the DQ 3 HD-2D remake
