I played the mobile version a few years back around the time I joined this website. It was a good experience and I'm really glad I played it, but it's probably the only DQ game I wouldn't playthrough a second time. There just isn't much in the way of playstyle options which is the #1 reason I play RPGs.

Finally got around to finishing the rest of the quests in the game.

PC or PS4? I've gotten multiplayer to work once or twice but I'm only familiar with the steam version of the game.

Completed the 3rd trial of the trial isle after using most of my pep pips to farm some seeds of skill. Figured "what else am I gonna do with em?" My party is starting to look final boss worthy, though somehow Serena is significantly under-leveled compared to the rest of my team. Apparently I forgot that I was missing a pastword for DQ2 and after obtaining it I now officially have all the pastwords. Haven't touched this new DQ2 one yet, and still haven't figured out the last DQ1 quest, but I'm getting there. A close friend of mine is also playing through DQ11SDE, having not played t

Finished all of the story quests save for Final boss and the last two parts of Trial Isle. Only sidequests I have left is one that requires the final WoH trial, and the last tickington quest for DQ1 (which I understand requires you to beat the true final boss?) Somehow made it this far with my team only in the mid 70s, I need to do some serious MKS grinding. Though I am kind of worried because I wanted to unlock all the appearance changing outfits but so far I've only gotten all of Erik's and I only know of costumes for Serena, Veronica, and Eight that I don't have yet. No idea what/where the

Yeah I only found it via the shell phone or whatever it's called. Forgot how Awful the final trial of the wheel of harma is. Those squids just won't die. I think it might be time for some MKS grinding, but I'll see how many quests I can clear before I have to resort to that.

Picked the game back up for the first time in weeks. Going to try to finish all the sidequests. Found another story quest new to the switch version in Act 3 Heliodor Castle. Got some sweet looking armor out of it!

Only did the first part of it so far and did notice something a little different.

I figured as much.

I was wondering about those crossbow target things! I thought I had just missed a trigger or something. I never bothered with them in the PC version anyway. I got the Tickington statues for III, IV, V, VI, VII, IX, and X. Those quests have been pretty hit and miss in my opinion. A lot of them are just joke lines from previous games that they stretched into a whole quest. I'm also disappointed that many of the pastwords lead to the same areas as others. TFW no DQ3 Ghost Ship Pastword About to dive into (minor act 3 spoiler) I wonder if there's anything new to D

Finished off Mordegon this morning. I decided to see if I could use switching to 2D to back in time in order to dupe the unique weapon you get from slaying him in an effort to keep it well into the postgame. Didn't work unfortunately as it removed it from your inventory when you go before Mordegon. Now that I'm actually spec'd into that type of weapon I will miss it once it's gone. Finished off some sidequests. Took me a good 8 hours to do Richie's Quest for the vest of success. That sure was a well designed quest! But with that I think I've done all the sidequests that you can do before

Maybe because Rocket Slime was my first game, but I always imagined the rider just a tool for the slime, like a puppet. I could see an argument that it's a ghost symbiote, but I highly doubt it's a human. That would raise a lot of questions in a lot of games.

I find it kind of funny that some NPCs will start off in 3D, and then turn 2D when they stop being important to the plot. Not that it isn't jarring and a odd flaw in the game but It's interesting to play through the game with that quirk in mind.
