Let's Play Dragon Quest V!

[Skyblade]

Ending with some rhetorical questions, I see.

I wonder if the twins are going to be the new playable characters as Michael goes and gets lost trying to rescue his queen.

[Pumpkin]

TWO BABIES ON A QUEST TO SAVE THE WORLD

Yeah it would be sucky for that family if history keeps repeating itself

[Pumpkin]

So I go check the Chancellor's room for clues and find some special flying shoes, which I use.

They bring me to a Church

Attachment 56074Attachment 56075

Looks like I know where I'm headed!

So I head to the tower and I've got to see it is an awful place and I hate it.

Eventually I find Jeeves

Attachment 56076

Yeah really?

Jeeves dies and I'm okay with this. It's a very anticlimactic death scene really.

Eventually I find this dude

Attachment 56077

And beat him up

Then I find this dude

Attachment 56078

And beat him up

Before I finally go find my wife

Attachment 56079

I've missed you Nera

Attachment 56080

Kon doesn't like her confessing all of these plans and zaps her with a lightning beam

Attachment 56081

Puns DQ, really? Now of all time?

Attachment 56082

Look familiar?

So I take a few turns barely damaging him before Nera steps up, shines brightly, and breaks whatever barrier he is using after which I kick his butt.

Attachment 56083



So he teleports away and we get a visit from an old friend

Attachment 56084

This is quite the entrance

So the monster who killed my father arrives and tells me that the legendary hero would be born of noble blood according to legend.

Attachment 56085

So our son, then. (Let's not tell him we just had babies)

Anyways he is not for this legend and decides to turn us to stone

Attachment 56086Attachment 56087

What a jerk

[Pumpkin]

What's this?

Attachment 56088

How did you guys even get here?!

Attachment 56089

Ugh.

Attachment 56090

So looks like they've found me a bit too late.

Attachment 56091

So Michael gets auctioned off as a lucky statue for 20k

Attachment 56092

He says he has special plans for the other one and I am deeply concerned

Reunited with my wife only to be separated again

Michael just has awful luck doesn't he

Attachment 56093

So Mr. Pogie buys the Michael statue to celebrate the birth of his son

His son grows older as I stay the same

Attachment 56094

This continues

Attachment 56095

Then suddenly (I'm told this is a good storytelling phrase, so I'm using it here to express a sudden unexpected event)

Attachment 56096

Georgie... Porgie (sigh) is kidnapped by monsters.

Attachment 56097

Mr. Porgie comes and kicks Michael over, yelling at me because I was supposed to be lucky.

If the game indicates anything its that I am NOT lucky. Please get rid of this statue ASAP

Attachment 56098

We then watch as statue Michael lays on the lawn as days pass and seasons pass

Attachment 56099

Will they ever find the supersoft to rescue me? Stay tuned to find out!

[Skyblade]

Wow. I honestly didn't know what would happen. But I think I'm right: shion is bad news for RPG heroes.

[Spuuky]

Oh, the poignant sadness of being stuck as a statue. You sit, through the years, watching a child grow up, bearing witness to its pain and its joy, and that of the parent; precisely what you are losing as the youth of your own children slip away in a distant land, not even really knowing who you are. What a terribly cruel game you are, Dragon Quest V.

[Pumpkin]

This will be a small update as I have much things to do today.

8 years after Michael became a statue, he gets some visitors...

Attachment 56156Attachment 56157

My good old Spanish friend is overjoyed by this

Attachment 56158

its my kids

She pulls out a staff and this happens
Attachment 56159

Oh my

Attachment 56160



That's the number of smiling faces in this pic

Attachment 56161

I am all for this!

Attachment 56162

My son is pumped!

Attachment 56163

.....................................................

I was wrong


I am not the legendary hero



my son is

Now how am I supposed to stay the alpha male in this game

Attachment 56164

He doesn't talk much anyways so its not really a big deal.

So we are brought back to Gotha via Millie casting Zoom

Attachment 56165Attachment 56166

Hands off the purple cape, please

Attachment 56167

Gotha likes to party is what I'm noticing

The next morning the umm nanny lady gives me something

Attachment 56168

Apparently the king wanted a picture of her in it, but alas

Attachment 56169

Sancho was debating giving it to me or not

Attachment 56170

The twins find me and insist on following me on my journey since I was journeying with my father at their age

Attachment 56171

Oh

Attachment 56172

That's... that's cool too I guess

Attachment 56173

Oh, some family drama here

Attachment 56174

That is my next destination

Let's find out about our twins before we leave off for today

Attachment 56175Attachment 56176

At least he's honest

Attachment 56177Attachment 56178

Oh my gosh they are so adorable

AND HAIR RIBBONS

Is my girlyness showing?

Tune in next time!

[Skyblade]

Oh my gosh they are so adorable

AND HAIR RIBBONS

Is my girlyness showing?

Yes. Because your love for hair ribbons is the first instance of your girlyness showing through in any of your Let's Plays.

[Pumpkin]

YOU TRYNA SAY SOMETHIN

I WILL BEAT YOU UP

[Pumpkin]

Alrighty guys, taking a break over the weekend. I've had a hectic week and I have a full weekend, but I should be able to update again on Monday

[Pumpkin]

Okay so I have no idea how to get where I need to go so I instead end up exploring and return to the castle of Prince Harry

Attachment 56296

This is ironic

So I go see Harry and the kiddies play together and we talk

Attachment 56297

What is up with you guys

So I go collect my children

Attachment 56298

Yep, it's that trick again.

Also, I find some random dude stealing a treasure chest and fight him off. Then I head to Nera's village and see her father quite distressed.

Also funny conversation:

Random Man: treat em mean, keep em keen [laughter]
Millie: That's disgusting. I hope you don't ever turn in to that
Logan: That is so cool!

Attachment 56299

Turns out its some jar troubles

Attachment 56300

This again

Attachment 56301



Attachment 56302

This is all concerning

So of course the jar is red. I also say hi to Bianca who is now married

Attachment 56303Attachment 56304Attachment 56305

oh dear

Attachment 56306



Attachment 56307

!!!

Attachment 56308



Attachment 56309

So this is me after doing this fight for about 20 minutes.

Can I win it?????

Nope . I spent about a half hour trying and I just got bored. Will complete it later on.

Next time is the hunt to find my wife!!

[Skyblade]

Why are you being mean to Bjorn?! The dude just woke up, and he's immediately attacked by adventurers. How do you know he's a bad guy?

[Pumpkin]

He said he would eat me

[Freya]

Holy crud i didn't know you could marry someone in this game. I need to play it...



Yes that's a selling point for me....


Good job on the let's play though!

[Pumpkin]

Little update

So after many many in game days and realizing I was on the wrong ship, I finally found where I'm going.

Attachment 56639

Lofty Peak! The village Michael's mother is from. Also, I'm supposed to find a flying carpet, which Logan informs me would be a good present for all of those birthdays I missed.

I speak to a stranger who tells me I seek truth and enlightenment.

Attachment 56640

How do strangers always know so much about me

Attachment 56641

See, what is this? I just got here like 40 seconds ago

So I find some people and do some things, the town is a bit overwhelming with the camera angles until you get used to it. Then I go and see the elders

Attachment 56642Attachment 56643

Guard dude knows his stuff

Attachment 56644Attachment 56645

Good to know

Attachment 56646

So my mother is the only one who can do what they need her to do

Attachment 56647

This sounds very concerning. Millie has a theory that the evil monsters are using Michael's mother to open the gate.

So of course I have to rescue her!!!

Tune in next time~
