Persona is King niche, but good.  With that out of the way...

Which do you prefer: Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest?

I have always felt that Dragon Quest was always the better product from a gameplay standpoint, and it strived to stay true to its roots while catering to its fan. Final Fantasy has more flair, but I felt it has strayed from its root to appeal more to a mass marketable audience.  And I never thought I'd see the say when Enix and Squaresoft finally merged as one once being direct competitors.  Between the two, my vote is for Dragon Quest.  If Final Fantasy fell off the face of the earth today, I'd feel no big loss.

Never liked the amount of grinding Dragon Quest has.  I mean, it's still insane.  

It is personal preference when it comes to the tolerance of the amount of grinding one would allow, but I can see why it's not as much as  an issue in Final Fantasy becoming more and more mainsteeam.
