Go play Dragon Quest III, IV, or V (or, if you want a more modern entry, VIII or XI)
Experience some of the series' best--I've stuck with it for a decade for good reason.
That's one heck of a collection.

I hope everyone takes a moment to think about how influential and important Dragon Quest has been to gaming.
And even outside influence it has had on games, I appreciate all of the friends I've made because of it 😢#DragonQuestCelebrationDay
