This is my first Dragon Quest and is definitely my favorite. Its top spot is unlikely to be usurped thanks to this game's fantastic quality. The gameplay is some of the best in any RPG I've ever played, the story is classic but not afraid to go to some more mature places, the music is wonderful, the ability to play in 2D is outstanding, and overall this is an addicting game. I love RPGs and it's no surprise that the Dragon Quest series has made one of the best.
