Today marks my completion of Dragon Quest 8 (3Ds). I have been playing it for a long time.

(yes this is my miiverse post)

The Beginning:

It has been a lovely ride playing a lovely game. The only thing that I would have to say I didn't really like was the slow leveling,but I have played other RPGs with that similar problem. Seeing this game (the original PS2 version) being played or the characters pictures across the internet is what got me into the DQ series.

The purpose:

I always wanted to play it now I have, and it's very good! I've heard people say 8 isn't the best Dq out there, I've heard that title belongs to either 3,5,or around them. I can't rightfully comment on that by the simple I have played only a few of the main series (7,8,9). But what I can say is out of those I have played 8 is by far my personal favorite.

I started this game anting to understand why-if not being the best or the favorite of some - why it was so famus of the DQ games. An coming from finishing it, my question has been answered: I now know why it is so well known, this game has charm coming out of it's ears!

The feeling of accomplishment:

Now I would be lying if I'm not sad it's done. It was my go-to game on my 3Ds when I played it, heck when I beat it memories on the cave the go through at the beginning of the game were going through my mind. I know I can start a new file whenever I want, but the feeling of what's going to happen next will be gone!

I will play it in the future, I want to simply look back at the game right now. I will play something else in the meanwhile ( play some DQ Heroes 2 maybe :wink: ) before I jump back to this again.

The review:

The things I like from 8 are the following:

-the characters personalities

- the design of the world and characters

- the ability to change the outword appearnce of the characters

- the story telling.

- the humor

The things that I disliked from 8 are:

- the slow leveling up for characters

My recommendation:

I would completely​ recommend it to anyone who either likes RPGs or who likes the art style of Dragon Ball. All I have to say: hustle :notes: hustle :notes:

P.S. If your wondering what ending I went for( if not obvious by the picture above) here is a hint
