  • The first four dragon warriors/quests were surprisingly ambitious.

    DW is one of the first console RPGs.

    DW2 is in many ways the template for a generation of RPGs, with progressively gathering party members and opening up the map via gaining new travel modes.

    DW3 is still amazing. The party creation and job system is done better than most other attempts at it. And returning the old world was so cool.

    DW4 had a true multi-perspective narrative with a detailed story. Unlike anything else that had come out before.

    Later DW/DQs stopped innovating as much and stagnated, much as the entire JRPG genre feels stagnant.




  • There are several jobs that are frequently mentioned in discussions like this that are actually thanked all of them time.

    Nurses, teachers, fire, EMTs and police are always mentioned. They are hard jobs and mostly under paid. However they are constantly thanked, businesses give discounts and commercials and politicians thank them endlessly.

    Grocery store workers, butchers, plumbers, electricians, custodians, truck drivers and most “menial jobs” are completely thankless. Think of the last time you saw a 10% off for nurses and if you’ve ever seen 10% off for overnight stockers.
