Gorgeous looking and sounding remake of what is already one of the most important video games of all time. Not getting a western a release despite jrpgs peaking in popularity there during the snes and psx eras was a huge missed opportunity and if it weren't for the upcoming hd-2d remake it might've been the last chance it could've gotten to really get the appreciation it deserved. This is the best version by a pretty wide margin but the gbc and nes versions are still great, though if you only want to play one version absolutely make it this one. GBC dq3 is basically the same as the snes release except it's a bitcrushed (albeit impressive) handheld port with a bonus dungeon that's not worth unlocking but it's the best for solo hero runs which is what I'll probably do next. Snes version is worth it alone for the spritework and soundtrack like damn if the overworld theme wasn't called "adventure" already i'd still probably assume that's what it was called and I mean Adventure with a capital goddamn A because I've never had urges this big to blast video game music through my headphones and run through a big ass open field god I wish dragon quest was real
