I started playing dq8 for 3ds last week, and while I’m just level 7, the game has been really fun.

It is a really charming series. I’ve played dq11 pretty far, but I did not complete it. It’s just a long game.

I think I like the lightheartedness of it. The art style is cute and the dialog does not take itself too seriously.

What are your thoughts on the dragon quest series? What should I play after I finish 8?

I adore XI and highly recommend picking it up next time it drops to $20 on steam. My daughter is playing it now and I’ve been really enjoying watching her get into it, knowing what happens later to all the characters she’s meeting now in the early game.

Yeah, I will totally do that. I have about that much in steam credit anyway and it’s such a good game it’s totally worth the money tbh.
