-

Not Eternal Sonata.
yeah I heard bad things about it. I guess i should take that off my backlog
-
1. Blue Dragon
2. Dragon Quest 8
3. Dragon Quest 9
The rest can be left alone

Blue Dragon
-
ok guys, leaning towards Blue Dragon. Tell me the good things about it. I dont know jack about this game basically.
-
Play it and find out, hope this helps
-
Persona 3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Blue Dragon > The rest of those games > Eternal Sonata
-
go with blue dragon.
blue dragon is dragon quest meets final fantasy 5.
After that play DQ8.
-
Persona 3 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Blue Dragon > The rest of those games > Eternal Sonata
He has already played P3.
P3 > DQ8 = DQ9 > BD
-
Dragon Quest VIII
Blue Dragon is probably the worst of the bunch. What a shitty game.
-
If you end up going with Blue Dragon make sure to download the free Hard mode patch, otherwise the game will be a cakewalk.

Persona series drives me up the fucking wall. I've tried 1-3 but I finally came the conlcusion that I just don't give a flying fuck about being a Japanese high schooler. I know there's some creepy demographic out there that loves this shit but count me out.
Never played IX, but Dragon Quest VIII is a lot of fun but it's like a freaking jrpg marathon - the thing just keeps on going and going and going. Serious time is needed if you want to go through it. Good game though.
Blue Dragon is basically worthless without the hard patch. You NEED that patch if you're even considering it, and don't let the name fool you. The "hard" mode is more like your typical normal jrpg difficulty. Overall it's a basic by the numbers jrpg with some very pretty graphics - as long as you can handle the screen tearing and occasional slowdown.
Fuck Eternal Sonata in the ass. Worst of the worst.

If you haven't played P3, then P3 > BD > DQVIII > DQIX > Tales >>>>>> don't play ES
If you have played P3 then take it off the list and it's the same order.

Dragon Quest 8 and 9 are better than BD so I'm just gonna have to change my answer to DQ8.
-
Play it and find out, hope this helps
^ what he said. Just stick the damn game in. If you like achievements, print out a guide. You will get like 20 gamerscore for beating the game otherwise
-
Eternal Sonata owns, btw
-
Persona 3 if you haven't played it, otherwise DQ9.
-
I'd play Blue Dragon if there was DLC to somehow take out the shitty toriyama art.
-
Dragon Quest VIII
-
Blue Dragon or the DQ games are good picks, definitely stay away from Eternal Sonata, one of the worst RPGs I've played in a long while.
-
I personally couldn't play Blue Dragon, played it for ~10 hours and the kids/juvenile shit drove me nuts. Seemed like an ok game though. I'd go with DQVIII or IX (only played VIII). Haven't played the others.
-
Play DQ9 since I can't. Do it.
-
DQ8 took forever to get started. How long was that opening prologue, 15 minutes?
-
Persona 3.
