Dragon Quest FM, Episode 29: Mother, Earthbound, and Dragon Quest with Dan from GameApartment 1C
This week on Dragon Quest FM, B.J. wasn’t available. Thankfully, we already had plans to hang out with Dan from Game Apartment 1C! Dan hung out with Austin, where they talked about Dan’s history with the Dragon Quest series, including his favorite mainline and...
Why We Need Dragon Quest Heroes III
Okay, okay, okay. Maybe you're skeptical or think I'm biased. (And, yes, I am biased.) But we really need a third entry in the Dragon Quest Heroes series. I love the Heroes spin-off series of games. I've said it repeatedly on here and on the podcast, and it's true....
DQFM Episode 28: Dragon Quest XII Wishlists!
Since this episode is airing on Black Friday, we figured it’s the perfect time to put together our wishlist! Not of TVs or new smartphones, but what we WISH we’d see in Dragon Quest XII!
Dwellin’ on the Past: Fun Times with the Altar of Ages!
Dragon Quest XI S is filled to the brim with content. In previous posts, I've talked about the mini-games and (some) of the Tickington content like Tockles and pastwords. And like I said last week, this time around I want to focus on a special part of the Tickington...
Dragon Quest FM, Episode 27: Our Top 3 Dragon Quest Games (So Far)!
This week, we discuss our Top 3 Favorite Dragon Quest games! So far, at least. Our lists differ, but there's some overlap with Dragon Quest XI S, which we both love!
Tockles, Tickington, and Pastwords
This week, I want to talk about one of my favorite new additions to Dragon Quest XI S! For a year, I was hoping we'd get the Yocchi Village content from the Japanese 3DS of XI here in the States. On the blog and on the podcast, I talked about it A TON! So I was super...
How I Beat the Superboss at the End of Dragon Quest XI S!
Two disclaimers really quick: First, there are going to be a ton of spoilers ahead, so consider yourself warned. Second, I'm in no way an expert. And I'm not saying this is the best way to do it. This is just how I (as in, me, personally) defeated the new superboss at...
Back in the Saddle: Horse Racing and Mini-Games in Dragon Quest XI (S)
That's right! My "Dragon Quest" Quest is back, and since (like Dragon Quest) I love puns, I thought this was a perfect way to get back into writing about all my DQ shenanigans. "Back in the Saddle?" Get it? Get it? Get it? Are you still there? Okay, cool. Let's jump...
DQFM 19 – DQXI S – “Best Demo Ever Made”
We’ve got a 99% spoiler-free rundown of the Dragon Quest XI S demo, and WHY you should be playing it and buying the game that came out today!
The End of the Quest?
Once upon a time*, I proclaimed I was going to beat all the mainline games in the Dragon Quest series within a single year. It ended up only taking me nine and a half months. I've enjoyed (almost**) every moment of it. I think I flew through the games simply because...
DQFM – 18 – Final Fantasy vs Dragon Quest
This week, we’ve got a special episode for our Patreon patron, Ty. We have a thoughtful and friendly discussion about Final Fantasy versus Dragon Quest. We thought it’d be cool to compare numbered Final Fantasy games to its DQ counterparts. We’re both Final Fantasy...
Dragon Quest IX: The Gortress, the Gittish Empire, and Beyond
This is the final week for me to talk about Dragon Quest IX, which is a game I've thoroughly enjoyed. You can check out my first post on the game here, and my second post here. This week, I wanted to discuss a lot of the endgame story, areas, and characters. For me,...
DQFM 17 – Dragon Quest Monsters+ Manga – “This is our spiteful manga episode!”
Just in time for the new release of Dragon Quest Monsters + Volume 4, which releases in English on September 17th, we’re bringing you an episode all about DQ Manga! We’ve been talking about it for a while, and now it’s finally here! For today, we’re mostly just...
Dragon Quest IX: Quester’s Rest, Krak Pot, and the Starflight Express
Last week, I mostly talked about the Dragon Quest IX's Vocation system, the story set-up, and how themes and locations remind me so much of Dragon Quest VII. This week, I'd like to talk about some of the mechanics that make IX feel unique and different from other...
DQFM 16 – DQ Builders 2, Part 3: Austin Goes to Hell (Moonbrooke) – “I hate you, and you’re gonna live in the snow.”

Dragon Quest IX: Angels, Alltrades, and the Almighty
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies is the final game I have to play in my year-long Dragon Quest Quest. I started this game back in July, and I've been having a good time with it so far. I actually beat the main story this past week and am playing through...
