Neither. Get the KH games instead.

This would be a decent recommendation if it was what he was asking.

Lemme ask you, Nexzen, what do you like in an RPG? FFXII is very different from the norm, while DQVIII practically defines the norm.

 i was having doubts on dragon quests old school battle system then again final fantasies new one seems interesting yet awkward as well. Which one has a better story? i want a rpg with a good story, memorable you know and also fun and addicting at the same time the gameplay.

Well, I like Final Fantasy XII a lot, and I haven't played DQ8 but I have played a few of the games in the series and I like them too.

Don't listen to Soriku, he has experience with neither.

It depends on what you're looking for. I'd say the plot in Final Fantasy XII is better, but it's much more political than standard RPG fair.

What are some other RPGs you've liked?
