I haven't really played much DQ though. Is it maybe a bit more like Zelda (in its tone) in that you don't really care about story that much?
Cos if it was a FF game, a bad story just completely kills it for me!
The way the story is told is what I like.

(SPOILER) you go into the past, go on a quest to lift the darkness from the place. Then go back to the present, world is changed, and you can explore the present place and a new quest you can do. Also some parts of the story require revisiting certain past places (literally) and that's a cool aspect. Chrono trigger comes to mind.
