When High Voltage Software’s The Conduit releases next week, it may very well be the best online-enabled title on the Wii to date. Even so, most gamers will probably retain the belief that the PS3 and Xbox 360 boast better online functionality. But there is some hopeful news for Wii owners. Rob Nicholls, Lead Game Designer at HVS stated on a Ning network page that the general reaction to multiplayer in The Conduit will allow High Voltage to push for “the experience more like other titles on other platforms.”

“It IS available in public (both worldwide and regional) matches, but yes only with Friends (people you’ve shared codes with) in those matches. We don’t have an invite system. However, you can see from the main multiplayer page how many Friends you have online and then see from the Friend list who they are and what type of game they are playing. You can then elect to join that friend or not. Character limit on profile names is 8; there is no ability to do “clan tags”. And no, you cannot rename your profile without losing your multiplayer information. These are all things we will be addressing in future products; however for Conduit we focused on the gameplay first and getting a good system up and running on Nintendo’s servers. IF multiplayer does well, this will give us more to push with when we want to make the experience more like other titles on other platforms.”

* DQ9 was conceived as an evolution of DQ3.
* The theme of the game is ‘independence.’
* Considering the nature of the content, it wouldn’t be far-fetched for one to spend 100 or even 200 hours on the game.
* There are lots of different quests, including some that continue in a line with a steady story.
* You get a damage bonus (combos) for attacking the same enemy consecutively.
* The new dexterity stat affects the chances to run away, and to get a critical hit.
* Items received from breaking pots or barrels might be replenished after some time passes.
* Some of the downloadable quests that will be released after the game is out are supposedly going to be like side-stories involving main story characters.
* Treasure map bosses are very strong and challenging.
* Treasure map dungeon layouts and treasure are randomized to a degree, so each user will have a different experience.
* When you die in multiplayer, you’re given the opportunity wait for help or revive at the church.
* You can exchange items during multiplayer.
* The ‘medal king’ in this game is a former king who wants to be a pirate, Captain Medal.
