@robbybedfart:
One of my favorite moments in DQ8. Since you can actually EXPLORE, its possible to finish quests before you're told them. And at one point, Red gives you a fetch quest. And if you've already done it, the crew walks outside and King Frode asks Yangus
"But Yangus. Don't we already HAVE the Dragon's Tear?"
"Well yeah gov, but we have to make it look like we worked for it. Can't make it too easy can we?"
Oh really, well one more reason for me to play the game again.
I remember when i got to the second continent i did so many things before having Angelo in my party that i felt really stupid when my whole was like 15 levels above him, i hate when that happens in some RPG's.
