I remember years ago, maybe like 2005? You could sign up for something on Square's website and they would send you a demo disc of this game
I remember ....straight falling asleep while playing it but then the next day I gave it another chance and I ended up beating it. The only thing I remember is that there was ALOT to explore. in just the one town alone. I remember being disappointed that I couldn't save my progress for the real game --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

there was the Slime Knights website where Square paid people like me with PS2 games to spread hype of DQ8 around the internet.
It would be weird for them to send a demo of the game in 2005 when it came out in 2004 --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I was really confused that I kept finding weak equipment that's even weaker than my starting stuff. But then I found a key for a thief's key and it hit me all at once, there's a crafting system. Time to hold everything I ever find and never sell anything

So I go into the world map and my first battle is against three bell pepper monsters and a rabbit. They killed the main character so I was forced to run as yangus, this is not a good vote of confidence nor a good start to this game

The main thing is to pick one weapon type and stick with it, since the skill points don't help you unless you're using that weapon type.

if you were being serious, I'll cover the shipping costs, as long as you don't put it in a fancy, huge, and extravagant box, it shouldn't cost more than 10 bucks. And it should arrive in less than a week

so story time
one time GUM wanted to order a Slime controller, but they didn't ship to Canadia, so he was sad. So I volunteered to receive it then I'd just send it his way apparently Canadia HATES Texas I would send it off, it would disappear for a month, and then just come back to my house that happened 3 times. I'm sure he started to think I stole it from him I did nothing different the final time and it finally arrived. so yea, took a few months. and I had to pay for it every time I think GUM reimbursed me a bit so yea, this conversation is giving me PTSD right now.
