What platform? the 3DS version has the most content, the PS2 version still wins out on the presentation front due to the orchestrated soundtrack and better graphical texture quality i'd go with 3DS personally --- https://i.imgtc.com/hB9W4JK.gif You act like I don't know my own way home <cite>Delirious_Beard posted [p:926203999] in Which Drag...

Lunar_Savage 08/17/19 10:25:41 PM #10:	DQ VIII is probably the best entry point. However, DQ XI is definitely newbie friendly, but has infinitely bigger pay off if you've played the games before it. Edit: I strongly suggest playing the original 3 games before XI. --- Number of Mega Cookies given: (::::) 29 Tips top hat, adjusts monocle, and walks away with a cane.

Ivany2008 08/17/19 10:28:41 PM #11:	I do recommend playing 7 close to last. 7 has arguably the biggest skill ceiling of the franchise. There are points you will get super frustrated and want to give up. As for what to start with, I'd suggest 8. Maybe 9 if you want something a little less involved. 11 is fun, but play it on the switch since that's the superior version. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:926204219] in Which Drag...

If you can tolerate the first couple hours or so (slightly less on 3DS), the rest will be fine. I respectfully disagree. I'm about halfway through the game when you get your classes and I had to quit due to frustration. It was arguably the most annoying thing I've ever experienced. Trying to level up in an area that doesn't give you much xp to beat a boss which is damn near impossible to kill at least for me. <cite>Ivany2008 posted [p:926205088] in Which Drag...

So_Hajile 08/17/19 10:56:15 PM #15:	If you're interested in seeing how old school JRPG's develop and are ok with primitive designs and features (compared to modern capabilities), then start with the first entry. If you're wanting to get a feel for the series and its staple features while having a modern feel, start with 8. --- Reading up on the Bat-Family: https://bit.ly/2Us5RhG <cite>So_Hajile posted [p:926205191] in Which Drag...
