/vr/ - Retro Games

Done better in what sense? Maybe the combat, but combats in jrpg are easy and simple anyway. Maybe is the story? I think that RPGs provide more things than simple story and characters.

On the other hand, DQ excels at giving a character to every npc, making the world exploration enjoyable, I has a good control on how much time you should spend in dungeons, wilderness and towns.

I think that the best quality of DQ is being a round game while doing things like exploration better than any other game.
