This was without a doubt the best dragon quest game made. It's such a shame it's stuck on the DS, when it would be the perfect switch port. The storyline is excellent, the after game to-do list keeps players engaged after they've finished the main plot, and the ability to play as a customised character make this game the cult classic it is. The gameplay features a classic turn-based rpg experience, complete with a class system. I've put 400+ hours into the game over the course of the past 14 years.

I feel like this game is tailor made for Me, CAUSE HOLY SHIT I LOVE THE CHARACTER CREATOR. as much as I love wacky dragon quest side characters, having a party of a bunch of guys I made is something I will never get over. Not to mention the amount of awesome armor sets in this game, and while I wish there was a way to wear weaker armor but still have it be viable in the later game. The game never gets to hard were you can't wear your weak but awesome armor seats.
I also belive this game has one of the best dragon quest story's. The tale of corvus is so tragic, and with many twists turns and surprises I was always entertained. This is complimented experimentally by the gorgeous soundtrack.
If you havent played this game do so it's alot of fun
