Dragon Quest

Got out of work today and realized its the 12th, my steam key for Dragon Quest 3 2d HD hopefully unlocks tomorrow at midnight.

I think you can still get 15% off using the november promo code at greenman gaming.

edit: nope just read it won't be till morning, bummer. Added picture.

edit2: some of you have really strange up/downvote patterns... ^~cough~^

...nearly every dragon quest title on steam is currently on sale. :)

You can also share like your top 10 in order if you want. As long as you tell me your top DQ game :)

I has a sadness

Basically, as the title says. I've got the itch to play another dragon quest game and would like to know how well regarded the ones are I didn't play yet compared to the ones I've played. Although I'll probably play IV in preparation for the upcoming DQM game, as I love those, maybe I've got time for two. Anyways, here's my list:

1. DQ V (DS version)

• It's got the overall best story thus far and includes monster taming, which I really liked. Overall just one of my favorite games.

2. DQ VII (PS)

• I'm oddly fond of VII. I'll acknowledge that it probably is not better than some of the following ones on paper, but it just clicked with me. I really like the beginning part of RPGs and VII got several of those with how disconnected it is at times.

3. DQ XI (Switch)

• I loved every second of XI and would probably rank it higher if the post-game wouldn't do what it does. While I really liked them later on, the Hero and both twins started off quite bland.

4. DQ VIII (3DS)

• The game itself is still really good, but it never grasped me with its story as the ones above did at times.

5. DQ IX (DS)

• IX never clicked with me at all. Having only silent no-names in you party already started off bad, but the overall story wasn't my cup of tea either. I generally like class systems, but this one didn't do it for me either.

edit: I didn't have my hopes up when I 1st posted this, but I've now read they actually announced localization for China and Taiwan already. It might actually happen this time.

I was just asking because I seem to be running out of wood more and more often, but it doesn't look like the trees are growing back.

I just want to give a shout out to Sham Hatwich for being one of the most adorable things I've ever seen

Once in a while I fire up my NES cart of Dragon Warrior 4 just to replay chapter 3. Chapter 2 is pretty good as well, but 3 keeps me coming back.
