>tfw I just bought Sentinels of the Starry Skies for $3 at a garage sale
Is this a good starting point
>>376045815
Bully.
Maybe you guys should have bought Dragon Quest Heroes 2
>>376046043
Not really, its probably the most bland game to play since your party members don't even speak. The story was pretty boring imo, if you got 2 or 3 friends to play with however it pretty good for the co-op feel, also if you like customization then this game will also tickle a spot for you.
>>376045815
>mfw it comes to PC
>>376045815
The PS4 version will come.
Now the 3ds version bye bye.
DQH 1+2 sold extremely well on steam, I doubt they'll miss out on the sweet sales from PC.
>>376045815
Mainline always makes it over, silly.
>>376046354
>Buying Musou garbage
>>376046505
I see. Well it was only $3 anyway.
>>376046630
>DQX
>>376046505
Also what do you mean party members don't speak? I'm used to not having them speak, since my main series is EO and I make my own party of adventurers.
>>376046564
This here.
>>376047430
That's exactly it, they're silent protagonists.
>>376045815
>implying anyone would want the most rehashed, same old bullshit franchise on their system of choice
>>376047790
Is that a bad thing though? Are they usually known to be talkative and preset in personality?
>>376046712
It's a good game but not a proper DQ gameHope you have a way to use cheats if you want to get all the post game sidequests
I'd rather have DQB2 desu
>>376048152
I have no way to use cheats. I am playing it on an unhacked 3DS.
I bought DQ VIII on 3DS despite never playing a DQ game. I did my part.
>>376048025
Yeah, earlier DQ games had party members with canon personalities but no in-game dialog (limitations and all) and in later titles they have full dialog and shit. IX is unique in this.
>>376048293
>unhacked 3DS
>not even owning a DS flashcard
jesus anon what the fuck are you doing
>>376048363
Ah. Not a huge problem for me then, I dislike super talkative protags anyway.
>>376048449
My uncle has an R4 loaded into my cousin's DS, but that's it as far as that goes.
>>376048152
>Hope you have a way to use cheats if you want to get all the post game sidequests
Should also add that those sidequests add a surprising amount of content, including character storylines.
>>376048880
Wait a second
Is this the game that had the "daily" quests transmitted over Wifi? Is that what you guys are talking about?
>>376049063
yes
>>376049204
Fuck
I remember seeing this in commercials all those years ago. It still has a save file on it though, so I'm tentative to erase it.
>>376049354
If you have a flashcart you can use the save editor on a save. It's worth it desu.

>>376049647
I have no idea how this works. All I remember is my uncle has the one flash card with a bunch of games loaded onto it (and 2 of the same Mario title). If I don't erase the save, do the quests still exist from their old save or do they just expire?
>>376046881
Yeah, X, not "10"
>>376049869
Fuck if i know dude.
>start game on flashcart, beat the game (since the extra content is mostly post-game stuff)
>download save editor
>backup your save, open it in the editor

It's not rocket science.
DQ9 on the Switch fucking when?
>>376050340
Yeah I know, I just mean that I can't use my 8 year old cousin's cart to fuck around with a $3 cart. If I could find one I'd just buy it.
Also I know that pic is supposed to be because I'm retarded (I agree) but good god do I hate pictures of babies eating things.
>>376046043
Start with either 3, 4, 5, or 8.
I highly recommend 5 but it is in the middle of a "trilogy". You can play it without getting lost though
>>376051358
I assume those can all be emulated. I dislike relying on an emulator but I'll give them a go if I like this $3 one.
Which one has the Moonbroke Princess? That's the only DQ character I know due to some very specific fanart.
>>376051358
No other games in the series are like V though. It's one of the best, but I don't reccomend it as a starting point.
>>376051358
Are any of those DS or 3DS?
>>376054805
4 and 5 are on the DS
I think 8 got a 3DS port
>>376055054
Man, they made a lot of these games. They certainly are pretty though.
>>376055054
VI is on DS, too.
>>376056037
Not him but I completely forgot about VI
