  Serious question: What makes Dragon Quest special? I’ve played turn based RPGs from that era and there never really seems to be any distinguishing characteristics between them

    It’s comfort good. Never pushing the envelope much, but always high quality.

    Note that the first game came out in 1986. These remakes will look great and put some modern conveniences on… But it will still be a game from 1986. If you want a modern DQ then 11 is great.

    I think it’s that Dragon Quest was pretty Genre defining. Not really first of its kind but one of the greats of its time.

      This, and it’s THE big traditional JRPG franchise in Japan itself, as big as or bigger than Final Fantasy. FF just happened to have more worldwide appeal.
