Dragon Quest is like the Super Mario of JRPGs, playing through this series has been so illuminating, so many of the common design tropes make sense now.
"Actually SMRPG is!" shhh.
Criminally underdiscussed, I've been vibing with its emphasis on ludonarrative over the more traditional storytelling of something like Final Fantasy, well of the games I've played of both series so far anyway. The first two DQ games are super archaic, haven't aged quite as well as SMB1 or SMB2USA, still better than Lost Levels!
"Absolutely no inappropriate content such as nude images, pornography, gore, vore, etc. This includes discussion of said content, including your fetishes."
I object. I completely acknowledged that the "Mindless junk" forum allows general idiocy, and I do not agree that the topic I posted had any inappropriate content. I did not even mention nudity, pornography or fetishes of any kind, or anything even "gory" for that matter.
