Comment on Dragon Quest VIII is so charming

I think it’s a testament to the series’s formula that DQ8 managed to keep charming me despite how dark it got. There’s a late game twist with a character that I still think about from time to time.
DQ5 is my favorite in the series by a mile–it’s also rather popular in general–so that’s an easy recommend for people that like the series. There’s also Chrono Trigger if you haven’t played it yet, as another in the lighthearted/JRPG/Akira Toriyama vein.

I played chrono trigger decently far into the story but ended up a bit bored with it.

As a fan of Chrono Trigger, how far did you get? There’s a section that’s noticeably duller than the rest before it picks up again.

This last thing I remember doing was this.
strategywiki.org/wiki/…/Magus's_Castle
I peaked at the next section and IT didn’t sound too familiar, so I don’t think I went any further.

I’d finish out Magus’s Castle, because that does change things some. But if you’re still not having fun after beating Magus, it’s time to cut bait.
