My perspective on Dragon Warrior II (spoilers)

[Jumpin]

Actually, Final Fantasy came out around the same time as DQ3. DQ3 already had lots of information out about it before FF1. It just may seem like DQ3 is a significantly later game because of how much more advanced it is, and how much more content there is.


I am afraid I don't recall DQ1 or 2. I haven't played them in 20 years. Although I played DQ3 5 or 6 years ago (maybe more) on GBC and it seemed alright. FF1 is fairly fun too if you have charts of everything; when you buy weapons and such, no information is given - you can't tell how powerful a weapon (for example) is until you equip it and compare the stats to the last weapon you had, you can't even see who can equip a weapon until you try to do it.

On the bright side; the magic system is WAY more fun than the over-powered system (suck down eithers which can be bought, and blow your enemies away with typical mp consuming spells) of the remade FF games. Plus FF1's art style is more charming. 1 save though, and like Dragon Quest, if you are playing on NES then the game data will erase the moment you turn off the system =P
