I started playing dq8 for 3ds last week, and while I’m just level 7, the game has been really fun.

It is a really charming series. I’ve played dq11 pretty far, but I did not complete it. It’s just a long game.

I think I like the lightheartedness of it. The art style is cute and the dialog does not take itself too seriously.

What are your thoughts on the dragon quest series? What should I play after I finish 8?

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.

    https://strategywiki.org/wiki/Chrono_Trigger/Magus%27s_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.

    I’m sure I finished the castle. I can’t remember if I did the next part or not. I can’t really remember.
