Well, it's finally done, Dragon Quest II is the vaguest game I have ever played, I can see why you guys said to move straight to DQ3 after 1.

Wasn't too bad until Rhone and Hargon continent. Fuck Rhone. Fuck Blizzards and Batboons.

Now, what version do you guys recommend for Dragon Quest III? I have heard that the GBC is the definitive version, but there also seems to be a fan translated SNES version.

I am looking to start this series from the start as well OP. What platform should I play DQ1 on? And should I skip two? Is it worthwhile?

SNES for 1-3
Mobile for 4
PS2 for 5
DS for 6
3DS for 7
PS2 for 8

NES if you want the original experience, SNES for better visuals, less archaic interface and less grinding.

OP here.

I actually played both the NES and SNES version of DQ1

While I appreciated the difficulty of the NES version more, I really liked that the SNES version introduced styles, themes, and other elements that were core to the later games.

If you're just looking to see what Dragon Quest is all about, the SNES version is a good place to start. I myself ran 1 and 2 on the NES just out of some meaningless pride.

DQ2 was hard as balls, but the satisfaction is real

He actually becomes decent from level 30s, but Midenhall's strength growth just starts to drop off

>>344890129
why the ps2 version for 5? Delicious DS version has more stuff.

Also, on the note of DQ2, I heard that the recent remakes have streamlined it so it's a LOT less grindy. I would definitely give the game a try, it is fun.

You mean 1 extra waifu that's not canon?
PS2 has better dungeon layouts, better graphics, better music and is overall better.
But yeah, sure is worth going with the DS version ON YOUR FIRST TIME with the fucking non-canon extra waifu that adds virtually nothing to the game.

Git gud.

i played both versions and i definitely prefer ds one, both have shitty graphics but at least ds has sprites that age better , if dq v looked at least remotely close to what dq viii looks then i would agree with you

Autism.
And the game looks like dogshit, the character models are FF7-tier.

Play the fucking NES games 1-4 you faggots and like it, enjoy that grind, its how I went through them as a kid.

>>344894221
I genuinely don't understand how you can actually prefer the PS1 DQ7-tier sprites over actual 3D.
The DS remakes all use the same engine (and even recycle house wall models and some other things) from DQ7 on PS1.

>posting a low quality stretched screenshot of the child-MC
Totally not cherrypicking at all.

But let's be honest here, you're an underage that started with the DS version so of course you will defend that piece of shit despite it removing cutscenes, orchestral music, updated dungeon designs and other improvements of PS2 version.

>>344894532
Thanks for proving how underage you are. I'm out, I see no reason to argue with the modern /v/ audience which is all generation z scum.

Dude the 3D models look way worse than the sprites no matter how you look at them.
But you sound pretty angry and autistic so I don't think I'll bother further.

Looks like shit.

Bye. Don't let the door hit you.

well if i have to choose between shitty full 3d or shitty 3d plus somewhat decent character sprites then i will definitely choose the later, too bad they didn't just go full 2d with older games, dq vi looks fantastic on snes but it's fan translation is really bad..
