Does that mean you were both enthralled and disgusted? I mean, I couldn't decide if the ending was depressing or not.

Alright, I haven't posted in forever. But since I watched DQYS last night, I'll share the following thoughts... Since a normalization follows the infamous twist, I was not as disappointed as I was anticipating. If anything, things like the old lady and the potion resolution were actually a creative way to alleviate the famous choice. At first my wife was down about said choice, and pleasantly surprised at the "everything's cool" twist. I also liked a certain moose joining into the fray. The infamous twist was good in intent. It was a big middle finger to the "games are for kids" crowd. However, its one of those things you'd be better off knowing at the start of the flick. It would have driven home that nostalgic middle finger. Having read the spoilers last year, I understood Dr. Agon's line. Finally, turning a long game into a 102 minute film required cuts, but I was actually surprised at how well they fused together the plot considering the restraints. That said, DQ5 would make for a solid mini-series.

Thanks folks!

Was the first time I heard this: Merry Christmas.

Here's an unpopular opinion I have. I strongly prefer the DQ2 soundtrack over the DQ3 one. In fact, the DQ3 overworked theme is second from bottom on my list. And then I go about my day.

My wife and I are playing through the original trilogy together, since she never had the chance to play the original 3 titles. We got through DQ1 and now we're working on 2. Been a great time so far, really enjoying the graphic style and the soundtrack. I grew up on NES, so to me Midi is sweet sounding.

Hell yeah!

The reason lies in a massive spoiler. I'm the type of guy that will like a movie despite something that should ruin it, so although I personally think its a serious bummer, it might not affect my enjoyment of the other parts.

Buy it. There's a swath of things to do and more freedom to build. The characters are far more interactive.

Or its just a storybook. That's my take on it.

I got 4 in a day? Yeah!

Maybe a custom order from an Etsy store? There's a DQM:CH case I want to purchase from there.

Sounds like I'll be getting both.
