Still working my way through Dragon Quest II. I’m a pretty good ways into the game so far and I like it a lot more than Dragon Quest I. It feels a lot less grindy and I’m enjoying the variety in monsters. Pretty harsh game though, your party members will drop dead instantly if you aren’t careful. It feels like the best strategy a lot of the time is to just smack with the player character and defend with the other two, then heal up after. There’s still times when there are other good strategies though, and having party members at all gives you more freedom in how you approach things, and I like that they each have strengths and weaknesses (even if they aren’t super well balanced about it) so still a big step up from DQ1 for me. They give you no room for items either despite there being a lot of key items. I still haven’t even tried the lottery yet because I only have room for a couple consumables and I’ve been holding on to them for emergencies lol. Still though, I’m liking it. The harshness of the game plays well into the general hopeless vibe the game’s setting has in my opinion.
I played 1 and 2 recently, but I liked 1 better than 2. Ive heard good things about 3 😃
Yeah I’ve heard 3 is really good, I’m looking forward to it! I know 2 has a pretty poor reputation and I can see why, but I dunno, something about it just clicks with me.
I enjoyed 2 over 1, as well. I liked how they made you balance between the three characters. You had to prioritize getting better equipment for the weakest person so they could help during fights.
But yeah, 3 is gonna knock your socks off if you’ve enjoyed 1 & 2. I want to go back and play the new remasters, but I know I’ve been spoiled by 3 so I probably wouldn’t enjoy replaying the first two lol
It’s funny because I wasn’t that into 1, like I didn’t really dislike it and found it charming, but I didn’t actually have that much fun. But I watched someone stream DQ1 HD, and I kept getting annoyed by the changes lol. It’s too different, it’s like a completely different game now and the changes they made didn’t seem that great to me. I guess there’s nothing wrong with it being completely different, but it wasn’t what I was expecting at all. Maybe if I played it myself I would enjoy it more but watching it I was just like “what is this…”
