So I'm thinking of buying both these games but I have some questions before I buy them.
DQ8 supposely have random encounters and they are quite frequent. I find those quite annoying. The game is difficult and veteran jrpg gamers will love it according to gametrailers, and I usually dont mind some challenge. I like jrpgs and the ones I've finnished are following:
Persona 3 FES
Final Fantasy VII, X, XII,
Tales of Symphonia
The World Ends With You
Am I experienced enough to handle DQ8? So if it's difficult is the story engaging enough to make you want to continue and how do you find the characters? good/bad etc? The only DQ I've played is Dragon Quest: Monsters on NDS and it was fun.
About VP2: Slimeria:
I never played the original on the PS1. Is the stories related? How is the characters? Is there good characters development? Story? The grinding, good or bad?
