Out of all the video game soundtracks that I have, the Dragon Quest series has the most boring music ever. Sure, it is well composed, but it's just so boring. I could not stand to listen to it much - though I do appreciate the composer tremendously, just not as much as Uematsu and other video game composers.

It is an alright game. A lot more challenging than most mainstream role playing games, in my opinion. Just not my favourite.
