So I just beat this, and apparently the post games really long and I'll be honest, I don't know if I have it in me to go through the post game if I don't need to.

Is the post game story necessary? Or is it just filler story that I'd be fine not going through? I'm just getting burnt out at this point but don't want to risk missing big story.

Do it faggot
Do it for Jessica

It really isnt
8 post game is babby mode compared to others, maybe 10 hours more
And yes it has critical story information and lore

It's slight filler but it does explain a huge part of the Hero's backstory

But I saved the princess from prince faggot, that's not an automatic lock in for Medea?

Wait what the fuck, can you get Morrie as a party member?

ahhhh fine, guess I'll hop in and do it. I've got 9 days till Judgment releases anyways

Where have you been?
On the 3DS version
Red is also a party member there
And you can marry Jessica

Where should I start in the DQ series
Im a FFIV, FFVII, FFIX kind of guy

in the 3DS version yeah

4 then 5

The post game of VIII is one of the best stories in video games. It explains the heroes role in the story, where so far he just seems to be some random guy. It will also give you the equipment the hero has in Smash Bros.

If you have a Switch, you'd be fine doing XI

But if you have a 3DS you can play 4-9, 9 is great, 8 is pretty good, i can't say for 4-7 because I haven't played those yet.

You can get pretty good ports of 1-3 on your phone on your app store (or just download an apk file for each) 1 is good, 2 is rough but enjoyable, 3 is the best of the erdrick trilogy

so can i marry jessica if i helped the princess escape prince faggot or did i like myself with medea

either is fine i just wanna know my options here

What the fuck?
Man I remember seeing the remake when it was announced and going "oh cool".
I'll pick this up if I decide to replay 8

did you like it op? would you recommend it?

I guess I'll go with 4 as my starting point
I started with FFIV and the main character has a pretty cool design, so I'll find a DS copy sometime in the future

You can marry Jessica in the 3DS game. In the PS2 game, there's no option. Medea is the better girl anyway.

3 for old school JRPGs, it's also the genesis of the whole DQ series that should eventually be played.
5 for plot with 2d sprites but the game is enhanced if you played 4 before it.
8 or 11 for 3d.

I would suggest not starting with DQIV. Not because it's a bad game (it's one of the best). But because the west got an absolutely horrid translation and content removed. They really need to re-release a fixed version of the game. And no, a bad smartphone port with the same shit dialects is not a fix.

>The reason 8 hero can negate curses is cause he already has a curse on him an there's a random side effect where it cancels other curses.

I really didn't like this explanation. It just feels cheap.

alright guess I'll do the PS2 version with number 8

yeah it was great, go play it, hell, go play any dragon quest game they're all good

But that's not the explanation. The reason he can deflect curses is Munchie in his pocket is the one deflecting curses. And curses aren't really that big of a deal anyway.

Dont listen to that retard I started with 4 and its my favorite

But that's wrong. It's directly stated that the curse on his memories is negating the other curses as a side effect.

So question then: since i saved Medea from Faggot at the end of the main story am I locked into marrying her or could i go for jessica in the post game? I'll probably stick with medea and I know this isn't a big deal but i like knowing my options
