Today we got the information that Dragon Quest III remake comes to every console and PC, as well as Yuji Horii want Dragon Quest XII worthy of the posthumous work of the two [Akira Toriyama and Koichi Sugiyama] who passed away. I take that as an opportunity to talk about the Dragon Quest series. It’s one of the longest running series in the genre but seldom i see people talk about it. Unfortunately, the series has recently suffered a few setbacks with the deaths of artist and wesom mangaka Akira Toriyama and composer Koichi Sugiyama. But in general, the series is quite popular, espacillay in japan, seeling a solid number of about 85 mio copies worldwide.

Are you interrested in the upcomming titles? What are your favorite parts or gameplay moment of the Dragon Quest series or what stand out for you? Let’s discuss this long running series.

The art is from the cover of book: “Dragon Quest Illustrations: 30th Anniversary Edition” by Akira Toriyama that was release in 2018.

    I loved playing Dragon Quest 4 oh about 20 years ago. I thought the chapter system was really well done. You got to focus on the story of many different characters. When they finally all get together into one party, it just felt amazing.

    Always wanted to get into the series more, but just never really came up. I recently went though DQ1 throught 3 on my phone and really enjoyed them although the ending of 3 was getting to be quite the slog and I needed to look up help on where to go quite a bit.

    I would love a recommendation on what to try next to get back into the series.
