   @Tadano I have a small obsession with Dragon Quest right now. It fills the void in my heart left by Paper Mario. They just don't make RPGs like they used to. Except Dragon Quest.

     @eris @Tadano He got such a good deal being the illustrator of Dragon Quest and Dragon Ball. Seems too good to be true.

     @alex @Tadano I've never played a Dragon Quest game, but I always love the artwork that Akira Toriyama does.

     @eris @Tadano Dragon Quest and Dragon Ball though? They both start with the word Dragon and are entirely unrelated except that he illustrates them.

     @alex @Tadano It's not luck, he's usually the creative director behind his own projects, or at least, he was back in the day.

     @alex @Tadano The whole shtick with Dragon Quest is that it is "just like the old days".

     @Jens_Rasmussen @Tadano Just like the old days, but 1000x better. Make JRPGs great again.

     @alex Which Dragon Quests have you played? And when you say Paper Mario do you mean N64 or TTYD as well?
     And yeah they really don't make them like they used too. If you're looking for similar RPGs to fill the void the Mario & Luigi games are real good. Same with the Trails in the Sky trilogy.

     @Jens_Rasmussen @Tadano @alex The toriyama artstyle is a positive in my book.

     I’ve read enough Dragon Ball as a child to be a fan of it.

     @EdBoatConnoisseur @alex @Tadano The Toriyama art is not a positive in my book. I've read enough Dragon Ball as a child to be tired of it.

     @EdBoatConnoisseur @Tadano @Jens_Rasmussen @alex It's still funny how Android 17 suddenly became a JRPG protagonist.
