As promised, I've been conducting interviews with Dragon Quest fans all over the globe as part of a new series I'm calling "Dragon Quest Around The World." This time around, all the attention is on Flavien Salsmann, who runs the Dragon Quest Fan site, the largest DQ...
I know it's been a long time since I've updated Dragon Quest Austin, and people still ask me about it from time to time, but this was originally meant to just be a chronicle of me playing every single DQ game in a single year. I did that, I started the Dragon Quest FM...
The Dragon Quest Trading Card Game (DQTCG) has been out for a number of years. Not to be confused with Dragon Quest Rivals or some of the other DQ card games out there, the Dragon Quest TCG (like a lot of Dragon Quest stuff) is only available in Japanese. I couldn't...
The Nintendo Switch is a little over three years old, and it's already established itself as a real JRPG powerhouse. Whether you're into the latest entries of Dragon Quest and Xenoblade Chronicles, or you want to play through classics like Star Ocean and Grandia and...
A while back, I wrote about how to play the free trial version of Dragon Quest X on the Nintendo Switch. You can read about that here, if you want. Since then, lots of folks have asked me additional questions about the game as well as sending me some info regarding...
Since I wrote about how to play Dragon Quest X on the Switch for free, and then how to keep playing once "Easy Play" is over without losing your character data, this time around I wanted to show folks how to subscribe to the MMO. Step One - Purchase the Game Before...
A little over a year ago, I played Dragon Quest VII for the first time. I found the 3DS version to be slow, so I started up the PS1 version (which was supposedly even slower) just to see if it grabbed me more. It didn't. In fact, I struggled with my entire time with...
Recently, I purchased an official Dragon Quest VII guidebook from Viz. It's completely in Japanese (which I can't read), but it did feature an interview with Yuji Horii at the beginning. Unlike a lot of posts, where I talk about my thoughts on the games, this is just...
I recently had the privilege to play through an early access closed beta of Dragon Quest Tact on iOS. You can read my thoughts on it by clicking right here. However, I wanted to share some of the monsters you'll find on your journey. These characters have cute,...
I'm always insanely happy whenever we get new Dragon Quest games in the West. I was cautiously optimistic that Dragon Quest Tact, the new tactical mobile game, would eventually come West. It even made my list of Dragon Quest games that need Western releases (which you...
This week, we’re talking about translation and localization in Dragon Quest games. It’s a bit of a touchy subject with some fans. I compared it to putting my hand in a beartrap a while back. It’s like, you can’t please everyone, and no matter, you’re losing a few...
This week, we're talking about Dragon Quest's first cousin once removed...Chrono Trigger. With the 25th anniversary of its North American release coming up in just a few days, we thought that there was no better time to talk about a game that was created by Yuji Horii...
This is the final post on Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation. Last week, I warned against spoilers for the last half of the post. Well, this whole post is basically one big spoiler. I know this game is thirty-one years old, but if you want to play DQ3 without...
Welcome back! It's now week four of my playthrough of Dragon Quest X, and we've finally arrived in the big ogre city! There are plenty of problems going on in this desert kingdom. Even the king seems to have caught a bad case of the "rage." And by that, I mean he's...
