Christmas can be scary. Krampus. Gremlins. Sandy Claws. That time Ron Weasley had to wear his uncle's outdated robes to the Yule Ball. And if you're looking to get into some spooky Christmas Dungeons & Dragons sessions this year, look no further than Icewind Dale:...
I was a kid the first time I was exposed to Dungeons & Dragons. Although, it might not be in the way you're thinking. It's certainly not the way most people were exposed to the tabletop RPG, which now has a pretty wholesome and even kid-friendly reputation. My...
This week on Dragon Quest FM, Austin is taking a close look at Dragon Warrior VII and its legacy. The PS1 game shattered records in Japan but is heavily criticized for its graphics and pacing. Still, the game holds up fairly well in 2020, and Austin takes a look at...
This week, we start our deep dive into Dragon Quest VII. We’re mostly going to be using names from Dragon Quest VII on 3DS, and if you’re confused as to why - check out our Translations episode or just the fact that this is a deep dive into Dragon Quest VII and NOT...
One of the coolest things about Dragon Quest XI S is that it gives players the option to play the entire game in breathtaking 3D or in clean but classic 2D. It seems like a great time to discuss the pros and cons of each mode, since the game is about to release on...
I've heard a lot of complaints about Dragon Quest VI. Before I even played the game, I had a lot of people warning me that I might not like it. So when I started it up–fresh off the postgame of DQV, I was cautiously optimistic.
Dragon Quest XI S has some great characters. In fact, it has some of my favorite characters in the entire series - and just in video games in general. The cast is a lively and likable bunch, and it's one of the reasons I fell in love with DQ 11 in the first place. My...
This past week, we got tons of good news at the Nintendo Direct! We saw lots of JRPG goodies--from Rune Factory 4 and 5 (yeah, that's right, they're making 5!) to a surprise Final Fantasy IX drop that very day! We also got plenty of Dragon Quest news. First, we're...
Last week, I talked about how massively disappointed I was with Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past. If you haven't read it already, you can find it here. I mentioned last week that there was at least one redeeming quality about this game, and today I'd...
Before we dive into the awesomeness that is Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride, let me mention two things. First, this is probably my favorite DQ game besides XI, so you won't find many complaints or criticisms here. Secondly, the main story is split into...
This week, I'm talking about Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride! The game is divided into three parts, based on the hero's age, so the posts are divided up that way, too. You can find the first part, detailing the hero's childhood, right here. Today, I'm...

This week, I just wanted to rank some of the most memorable characters in each mainline Dragon Quest game. That doesn't mean they're necessarily my favorite (although a few of them are). These are also my most memorable characters, the ones who stuck out the most for...
Welcome back to Adventures in Astoltia! Last time, we saved the ogre king from a really bad headache and a magical necklace. This time around, we're catching the train to the elven island to see what's going on with these cute little winged creatures. And if you're...
This week on Dragon Quest FM, we're geeking out about the new mobile RPG, Dragon Quest of the Stars! The game released on the night of February 24 for us, so we we managed to log in quite a few hours before recording the episode. As usual, our play styles are really...
The characters in Dragon Quest XI S are great. It's why so many fans around the globe have latched onto them, and it accounts for at least part of DQ 11's rise in popularity. One of the characters most likely placed at the top of nearly everyone's lists is Veronica,...
