Dragon Quest game designer and scenario writer Yuji Horii also discussed another new element.
“In the game’s story you can marry [redacted due to spoilers], but I thought that people would want to choose from various characters, so we’ve added that,” Horii said. “While it isn’t marriage, you can even choose Erik or Hendrik—so you can choose the person you live with.”
Producer Hokuto Okamoto supplemented Horii’s statement, adding, “You can choose the partner you live with.”
