I'm going to go with 5.

>>2580647
Chronologically is usually the way to go.

SNES or GBC for 1-3, DS/Mobile for anything else. Unless you want to go with NES for 1-4, which is perfectly fine. Either way VI's SNES fan-translation was never completely finished, so you should consider the official non-japan release for that.

After that we never got VII's remake so just use initial releases for the rest.

I still prefer v ps2, if only for the music. You get everything else but the wife and 2 monsters (arcdemon and jailcat)

Because popular things generate more hentai than unpopular ore more obscure ones?
The Dragon Quest series is one of the most popular game franchises you can find in Japan, with lines forming outside of stores during releases.

Well, the Dragon Quest world has a bunch of non-humans, so they could be having centaur babies or something.

I like them more than the main series. They all tend to be light on story, but the breeding can get addictive with all monsters having potential if bred the right way(more or less, family traits become more important in the endgame).

First DQM features random dungeons with the final areas being like retconned story parts of DQ1-6. DQM2 is more like traditional DQs with set worlds and mini dungeons, but also has a randomized endgame with the key system.

5 will get you emotionally involved like no other DQ. If you like that kind of thing go ahead.

Just started playing DQ V ps2 today .the music is pure soundgazm and the think looks really good. So far I just made it to the fairies after 1 boss

4 inspired the best erodoujins for sure, as evidenced by the OP's pic for sure. I almost wanted to vote for it for that reason alone. I ended up going with 5 though, not only because of the high quality of doujins in THAT series, but mainly because the gradual growth of the protagonist (and the really intense scenes such as the dad dying, having kids, being a slave. I'm surprised to see 8 so high, though the 16-bit-gems episode implied that most people got their start in the whole series from that game, since it was free or something. I haven't played very deep into it but I imagine 7 is the best overall in the series.

Just started 4 on DS and goddamn these accents are real annoying
