>what is Dragon Quest?
It's a lighthearted, simple turn-based JRPG with a Dragon Ball Z art style
>where do i start?
Most DQ games are stand alone meaning you can start where ever you want. DQ 2 is a sequel to 1 and 3 is a prequel to 1 but the story is so basic that it doesn't matter which one you play first. 4, 5 & 6 loosely have to do with each other but again it doesn't really matter. The rest (as far as i know) are completely stand alone.
>What are the best and worst DQ games?
3, 5 & 8 are considered to be the best while the rest are ok. in my opinion the only bad DQ game is 2 but others have issues with 6 and 9.
>what ports/versions should i play?
I - SNES
II - SNES
III - SNES or GBC (SNES is better overall, GBC has a couple more extras.)
IV - DS or Mobile (Mobile version has Party Chat restored, is otherwise identical to DS version.)
V - DS or PS2 (DS has an additional waifu to marry, PS2 has better graphics.)
VI - DS
VII - 3DS
VIII - PS2 or 3DS (Mobile version is gutted)
IX - DS
X - lol never ever but is for pretty much for everything in Japan. btw it's a MMO.
XI - Coming in 2017 and will be on PS4 and 3DS and is rumored for the NX
