Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei | Essential Gameplay Tips & Overall Guide
Digital Devil Story Megami Tensei on the NES is known to be a difficult and unforgiving game. After spending at least 40 hours playing the game and hours more poring through Japanese/English guides, I put together this video containing various gameplay tips with the hope that this knowledge would encourage more people to try the game. I definitely enjoyed the game more than I expected and I hope you will also give it a shot!

    Coincindentally, I played through the Android version of DQ just a week ago. It still holds up very well, specially if you play on a smartphone (the game is a little too short for console standards). I has fun finishing it and seeing where DQIX (the main game I have been playing in the last few weeks) got its references from.

    Very nice review. Dragon Warrior was one of my favorite games as a child, but the NES version took forever to earn enough gold for new equipment.

    Without the Nintendo power walkthrough, I would have never beat this game. It was a good thing. When I got the game it was with the Nintendo power subscription. I barely beat Zelda on my own without a walk-through. Oh to be 11 years old again.

    As of Dragon Quest Day this year, there’s a chance that instead of just III, they’re now gonna remake the entire Erdrick Trilogy in HD-2D. If all goes right, those versions might well be considered the definitive versions of the Erdrick Trilogy.

    The Super Famicon version certainly looks the best, but moving in half tile increments can be somewhat awkward to control as the game is rather inconstant as to whether or not it will auto shift the player when bumping corners.

    I hated RPGs growing up, and only developed a love for the genre with modern RPGs and all their quality of life features and in-depth combat systems... so it really, really surprised me just how much I loved this game when I played it for the first time recently

  • @GottaBeFrank
    @GottaBeFrank 5 місяців тому

    I don't play a lot of RPGs. The genre is a difficult one for me to be invested in, with a few titles as exceptions. Dragon Quest (Dragon Warrior) is one that I always think of when I think of my earliest exposure to the genre and have been wanting to play it again. A few years ago, I finally did that with the mobile version, but I will always love hearing the theme of the NES version.

    Thanks, you really sold me on playing the SFC version + ENG patch! This will be my first playthrough of DQ1. I fell in love with DQ11, and have wanted to try playing more of the series.

    For those into retro consoles, there's a version of Dragon Quest I for the Intellivision. Despite that system having less RAM than the NES, it still plays the game quite well.

    DQ1 is a very comfy game. There's something nice about having an RPG with a straightforward plot. You're the hero, kill the bad guy, save the world. No moral hangups, no character drama, no world-reshaping disasters, just a young hero on a journey to slap the Dragonlord's evil face in.
