I'm playing Dragon Quest: Jokers right now(well I don't really play it so much), and my question is should I stop playing it and get Dragon Quest IV instead?
If you think about it, point 1 and 2 are moot because you can simply use cheats. :\ Faster running speed + 2x EXP (or 4x if it's that slow...) and you're set.WileCoyote said:Joker wasn't that bad really just had some things that bugged alot of people......
1.Running speed of the hero (This one annoys me the most)
2.Grinding of levels,but it's not to bad once you can fight metals slimes and such
3.Dark Crystals were way to damn easy to find
4.Lack of a REAL story
5.More monsters?
I'm sure you can add to the list but it was an overall decent game.....
Vampire Hunter D said:Coyote 1/2 that list of yours is why I quit on it about 15hours or less into it. I remember getting to a few islands, seeing the beach with the pit, the castle one and so on. The problem was that you had to capture so many things, grind the hell out of them excessively(even for Dragon Quest standards) and then meld them into stronger but weak lv1s if I remember so you had to re-grind to meld some more. Combine that with it having ZERO story outside the opening and it honestly felt pointless to bother which is why I stopped.
You can get monsters in your party occasionally. But it's usually story related.WileCoyote said:Vampire Hunter D said:Coyote 1/2 that list of yours is why I quit on it about 15hours or less into it.

Na only the first one was me,but I do see your point about the story but level wise those are easy to get back...i'd love a sequel or a new "Monsters" game cause I enjoy the games with monsters more then I do with people in my party,of course I have enjoyed DQ IV even tho you can't have monsters in your party like the monster titles.....
