Let's Play Dragon Quest 8 (Part 11): HE SAID IT! HE SAID THE LINE!!!
In 2006, Square-Enix released Dragon Quest VIII in the west to rave reviews. It is often regarded as the game that really put Dragon Quest on the map outside of Japan (a lot may be attributed to coming with a demo of Final Fantasy XII), and likewise, it is regarded as one of the best and most accessible entry into the series. Initially old school to a fault, the west saw additions to the game like an updated menu system, symphonic music, and most importantly, voice acting. However, the main gameplay stayed the same allowing it to please newbies as well as veterans alike. Personally, it is one of my favs and I have only grown to appreciate it more with time.
Going on a treasure hunt, X marks the spot... yeah, if you are looking for story progression, move onto the next part... we also get about half way into Morrie's Monstruous Pit™ before I realize that I need bigger monsters that will strike hard and finish the job... What?
