Age instead of Era will never not be a dumb decision.

Even in spite of this, 11 > 8 >= 9 > 7 > 6 > others imo

Journey of the Cursed King, especially when you realize the title is not named after Trode.

Age sounds better than Era. The syllable count flows better and you actually start the word age and era with close enough sounds.

If they went with "Era" it would be purely for the sake of forcing alliteration rather than in the interest of a better title.

Journey of the Cursed King is the only one that fills me with a sense of wonder. Most of the other titles feel like nonsense

Nah, Elusive Era sounds better than Elusive Age. The G sound disrupts the flow.

They were added much later (for the mobile remakes for 2 and 3, and for the DS remakes for 4, 5, and 6). 7s was also added for the 3DS remake.

Not as dumb as not giving Builders a subtitle when Restorers of the Ruined Realm was sitting right there.

They always have in Japanese beyond the first one. Some of them are pretty much the same as the English but a few are very different!
Dragon Quest II: Gods of the Evil Spirits
Dragon Quest III: And thus into Legend...
Dragon Quest IV: The Guided Ones
Dragon Quest V: The Heavenly Bride
Dragon Quest VI: Land of Illusion
Dragon Quest VII: Warriors of Eden
Dragon Quest VIII: The Sky, the Sea, the Earth, and the Cursed Princess
Dragon Quest IX: Guardian of the Starry Sky
Dragon Quest X: Awakening of the Five Tribes (plus more subtitles for each expansion)
Dragon Quest XI: In Search of Time

Mega Man has also always had subtitles in Japan

Wtf? How is this topic not overwhelmingly biased towards World Tree's Woe and the Blight Below

It sounds like it's talking about poop
The Blight Below and the Big Log, Whoa

Wasn't GreatLog the hub town from DQ Monsters?

They all carry the blood of the Legendary Hero and are descended from a Zenithian.

VIII is the only one I have ever played (for the FF12 demo) so I never realized all the other titles are alliterative.
