That's interesting. Better than having to spend time in the casinos trying to get Metal Slime Gear.

The teeeeeeeease.

I would love to see the Pope one day!

It was somewhere in between a third and half, but sometimes indexes can be a bit misleading because some areas encompass more stuff than others. I just use it as a way to see about how far I am. I'm about to get to see the Pope I think

So I occasionally check a walkthrough index to see how far I am in a game without spoilers and apparently I'm almost half way done Grandia II already? Maybe some of those sections are much longer than the other have been

There's a reason most people don't finish DQVII.

Well...

-You lost a party member in the area before it, who happened to be your meat-shield main damage dealer.

-The two regions before this one are largely story focused so you probably didn't get much in ways of levels or gold before getting here.

-You get stripped of your abilities at the start of the area for story reasons, making one of your party members almost completely useless and seriously hampering the party since you now have to use items to actually survive.

-The game has a serious difficulty spike at this point with random encounters being pretty brutal and the region has a notoriously high encounter rate.

-Like all DQ games, unless you lucked out and got a certain item drop in one of the previous regions, you'll be under-equipped and the prices in this region are criminal and the Gold drop is even worse.

-There are at least two boss battles that are scripted, you can't really win them but the game gives no hint that it is this way. When you actually do have to win the fight, the enemy isn't exactly powered down either...

-It is the longest section of the game by this point and once you start Dharma, you can't leave. Your trapped there until you complete it so if you're party is grossly under-leveled, you don't have the option to leave and go to an easier region to grind.

It is the most notorious section in the game and one I've heard DQ fans hope got changed a little with the remake. About the only saving grace of this area is that you get a Sage Rock (item that does free group healing and can never be used up) in this area. Yeah, Dharma is basically when the game decides to take off the kids gloves and really show you that you'll have to put some effort in the game to succeed.

Well that's neat. I'll have to get around to it eventually. Of anything, I need to get back to my playthrough of DQVII I started late last year before MGSV stole my soul. I had just gotten to Dharma Temple and access to Job Classes when I left off and considering Dharma is like the first real pain in the ass location in the game, it feels a little bad to leave off from there.

So has DQVI taken the mantle of your favorite DQ game?

Eh turns out the guy was faking anyway but it still hit the feels
