So I should start off by saying that I've never really played a main series Dragon Quest game. I have Dragon Quest Builders as well as Dragon Quest Heroes. I enjoy these games well enough but I realize they're nothing like the JRPGs that their property is borrowed from. At one point I did own this game for PS2 and I played the first hour or so. At the time I remember thinking it was interesting but didn't get that far into it. Unfortunately I no longer own a PS2 nor any of the games I had for it as they mysteriously disappeared after several moves in college.
I kinda want to give this series a real try. After doing a little research, much like Final Fantasy, everyone has their personal favorites. And it seems that VIII is the one people hold the most regard for across the board with a littering of VII, V, and I think I remember a few IV's and VI's. Since this game just released on 3DS I figured this might be a good a time as any to give the series another shot. I was curious on what people's opinions were for the series and this port as well. I've heard a few things have changed, but mostly they were quality-of-life changes for the better. Is VIII a good jumping in point? Should I try another game first?
I should also note that I do have an iPhone and an iPad but after sampling a few of Square Enix's other ports to the platform somewhat recently I can't imagine it's the ideal way to play.
