I am very very excited. I was never too fond of 4 (I loved 3 and 7 the best), but the chance to finally play 5 and 6 has me giddy.

I _cough_ migh have played them… i wouldn’t really be that excited. Not bad, but not great. _Very_ tedious. But maybe they’ll rework that.

Wow, how did I miss this originally? :dubious:

I’m excited. I loved Dragon Quest VIII. Well, actually it was more of a love-hate relationship because there were certain parts (Dhoulmagus, I’m looking at you) that made me scream in frustration. I’m looking forward to playing some of the older ones.

Dude, I just realized between Dragon Quest VIII and Final Fantasy XII, I spent 160+ hours of my life on them. That’s almost a whole week…on TWO video games. Jeeeeeeebus.
