Ah, the RPG...my favorite Genre. Among them, I have been playing the Dragon Warrior (Now known as Dragon Quest) for years now, and I've greatly enjoyed each one I've played. Anyway, this particular entry is about the first one in the series, Dragon Warrior.
You play the role of an unnamed Hero, who is the descendant of Erdrick, a Hero of the Past. Your goal is to recover the Orb of Light, and destroy the Dragon Lord. Sound easy? It's not!!
You have to do all this stuff, like collect items, rescue a Princess, and kill a Golem-Like Monster before you can go and battle the Dragon Lord, but fear not, for it's damn good fun doing it all, and it's well worth your time, despite the high difficulty of it all.
So, why do this at all? Because it's fun. For more fun, here's some Trivia on the game:
-In Final Fantasy I for the NES, there is a Gravestone marked "Here Lies Erdrick". This exists because Square and Enix hadn't become one yet, and were rivals back then.
-There is a Remake for the Super Famicom and Game Boy Color.
-Erdrick is actually the Protagonist of Dragon Warrior III.
-An Episode of Captain N: The Game Master revolved around this game.
Also, if you look at Screenshots of the Japanese Version VS. the US Version, you'll see that some graphics were changed. Besides that, the Japanese Version used Passwords, and the US Version used Battery Backed-Up Saves.
That's all for now. I hope you enjoyed reading this entry!
