Question

Favorite Dragon Quest game?

The first DQ game i ever played was DQ9, and it was very fun for me. Then, i played DQ8 (but it was on android though), it was still a fun game, despite the major lags. Then, it was DQ1 and 2. Out of all of them so far, DQ9 is my favorite right now.

    Honestly, I'm very biased, but mine is Dragon Quest 8. I grew up watching my Mom play it, and I loved it so much that I literally drew every monster in the game. Later my Mom actually let me play it, when she found out that I could hunt Metal Slimes for her :P but I always immediately flew to Farebury and killed monsters there. :) So yeah, DQ8 is very special to me, so it's my favorite.

    8 is easily my fav thus far and probably always will be. The story, the characters, the journey, its ost, beautifully detailed visuals, etc. Its an amazing masterpiece of a game. It was also my 1st played DQ game that i remember but i've also played DQ7 (remake) and DQ9.

    DQ9 is a funny game and might be my second favorite in the series. You have to create your own party tho (which can be fun) but outside of combat it's just not as lively as DQ8. DQ8 also looks a lot nicer.

    Yeah, I do agree that DQ8 has the better graphic designs, character personalities, and Overall world features (how detailed and big the world is in game), but in my Opinion, DQ9 had the better gameplay. You're able to choose so many varieties of weapons and armour from past games, and you make your own party, AND you can choose whatever vocation you choose, and change it later.

    Plus, you also got those grotto maps, so those are always a blast after finishing the main story, Plus, you can also get the Legacy maps, which you can fight any final boss from any of the past DQ games (yes, Rhapthorne and Dhoulmagus are one of the legacy bosses). Basically, you can pretty much do everything in this game, despite the graphics and maybe poor character personality.

    That's why DQ9 is my favorite out of all of them. DQ8 would be number 2 for me.

    I still favor DQ8 over 9 for many reasons even if 8 has no job class system since the skill tree system is just as fun and u can use it early. Honestly i never liked job classes that much since it makes a lot of characters not that important with roles since anybody can take up those jobs. I mean its fun but i like it better when certain characters have their own roles it adds much more-

    -importance and depth with the characters imo. Those grotto's can be fun but they can boring and tedious very quickly to me as well as repetitive when trying to get good grotto's to generate not to mention finding them. DQ9 was a good game tho and i still greatly enjoyed it but mostly for the story than the gameplay, although i did enjoy its gameplay but with rpg's or adventure games in general-

    -i like for them to have a greatly written narrative and good character development more than gameplay. But i do want the gameplay to be engaging tho.

    I've only played 7 & 8. Eight's easily my favorite--and one of the best RPG's of any kind I've ever played.

    CB yeah, I get what u mean. All of those things r reasonable to say about the two games. However, in DQ9, you're also able to see the actual monsters out on the field, so then u don't have to have a battle every 3 seconds when you're on the field, like in DQ8. u can choose whether u want to battle or not in DQ9
