Stay Out of the Deep End
I’m going to guess you want more fish-people, but I’ll admit I’m very bad at predicting what other people want. So let’s just say I want to write more about fish-people. I often go to TV Tropes to see examples … Continue reading →

Caravan of Crossovers
I recently finished watching an entire playthrough of Dragon Quest Monsters: Caravan Heart. Beth said the guy playing sounded like Garfield. You know who no one ever said that about? Chris Pratt. But anyway, watching turn-based games can be a … Continue reading →

Ticking Over
I’m still playing Dragon Quest XI. It’s a longer game than I realized, especially after beating the guy who’s initially identified as the main villain. But there was one aspect I wanted to discuss that I’m almost done with, the village … Continue reading →

Man or Monster?
I’ve read Volume 4 of the Dragon Quest Monsters+ manga, which continues with the story of Marumo, Loran, and Pazuzu. Loran, the Prince of Lorasia and hero of Dragon Quest II, left home when the seeds of hate and fear that … Continue reading →

Saving the World While We’re Young
I’ve seen the topic come up of how everyone tends to be young in Japanese role-playing video games, to the extent that people in their thirties are considered old. I noticed this in Final Fantasy VII, where everyone seems to … Continue reading →

Rhapthorne Session
I’ve tried several times, but still haven’t managed to beat Rhapthorne, the final boss in Dragon Quest VIII. At least I’m pretty sure this is the final battle (not counting post-game bonus content); I already beat him once in the … Continue reading →

Quester vs. Jester
I recently started playing Dragon Quest VIII, and I’ve made it as far as the hill near Ascantha where wishes are supposed to be granted, although I haven’t finished with it yet. While mostly functioning like other DQ games, there … Continue reading →

Orgodemir or Bust
It was over a year ago that I started playing the 3DS version of Dragon Quest VII, and now I’m finished. Well, finished the main game, anyway. I know there’s some bonus post-game content, like a dungeon where you can … Continue reading →

Fullheal the World
I think I’ve played enough of the 3DS version of Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past to get the gist of it, so here’s a preliminary review. I played the PlayStation release of this (called Dragon Warrior VII) … Continue reading →

Monster Jam
