Let's Play Dragon Quest 8 (Part 2): What!? Halfwit!? Who's the halfwit!?
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.
Quick one here, I just wanted to get us back on track before starting a brand new segment. This likely won't happen often... will likely happen even less when I get FFVII Rebirth done... now if you'll excuse me...
