Dragon Quest FM

BJ Keeton and Austin King

Let's talk about and obsess over Dragon Quest!
The 35-year-old JRPG series has its hooks in us, and we're okay with that. Austin played through the whole series in a single year and is blogging about it, and Beej is discovering and adoring the series right on his heels. From character spotlights to deep dives into mainline games and more, we hang out each week to rave about Dragon Quest and celebrate the series!

Like all Geek to Geek shows, we try to keep a clean rating. DQ is about fun for us, and if you can play DQ with your kiddos, you can listen to our Dragon Quest podcast with them too!

    S8 E08 - Zenithia Trilogy Remake (What We'd Love to See)

    There are rumors abound that a Zenithia Trilogy (DQ 4, 5, 6) is in the works, so we have a listener request to do an episode about what we'd like to see in the new games. Do we want full 3d like DQ7 Reimagined or HD-2D like the recent Erdrick Trilogy? What other things should change or get added in? Let us know in the comments!

    S8 E07 - Monster Hunter Stories 3 (It's So Good!)

    Austin did a review of Monster Hunter Stories 3 for work (that you can read below), and he also had to gush about how great it is on the podcast. Since you all love turn-based RPGs, this one is right up your alley. Austin even says it's his favorite monster taming RPG at this point, and that's saying a lot.

    S8 E03 - Dragon Quest VII Reimagined (Unboxing the Collector's Edition)

    Austin kicks off this episode of Dragon Quest FM by unboxing the Dragon Quest VII Reimagined Collector’s Edition live on air, finally cracking open a box that’s been taunting him in his office for over a day. We walk through each item—the slime plushie, PS5 physical copy, slime steelbook, and the wonderfully elaborate ship-in-a-bottle display. Austin's dog Olive is terrified of bubble wrap, and we tangent into downloading Final Fantasy XIV on a PS3 in BJ's office because of sketchy rural internet.From there, the conversation shifts into BJ’s early impressions of Dragon Quest VII Reimagined on Switch 2, including his frustration with game key cards on unreliable internet (which triggered the tangent), using “easy mode” boosts to XP and vocation points unashamedly, and enjoying Maribel’s alternate “day off” outfit unlocked via the demo save transfer. Austin vents about some pacing issues, arguing that some of the remake’s “streamlining” still leaves tedious sequences intact.

    S8 E02 - Dragon Quest VII Reimagined (Spoiler-Free Review)

    Austin was able to play Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined early and he's here with a review for us! We talk about what's good, what could be better, and what was surprising about playing through his third version of DQ7. Beej's copy of the game should arrive soon, so we'll dive deeper as he gets to play it and see more of the game. https://patreon.com/dragonquestfm https://youtube.com/@dqfm https://bsky.app/profile/dragonquest.fm https://twitter.com/dragonquestfm
