Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride.

I've gotten into Dragon Quest quite recently after discovering some doujins and hentai images of the series. :D
And I'm here to present Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride for the DS.
I Found myself almost throwing my DS across the room lots of times since level grinding and fighting monsters is tedious, on monster can fukken paralyze your whole party and it's game over? WTF KIND OF BS IS THAT!
But what I like about this game is you can choose from three brides to marry and there's three save slots. :D
It's worth checking this game out. 8)
Plot. (Ripped from wiki.)

I'm quite a big DQ fan. This is the first DQ game that was genuinely well developed, in my opinion. DQ, DQII, DQIII and DQIV all feel like prototypes whereas DQV feels like the culmination of years of RPG making.
The party chat function is great if you play JRPGs more for the story and/or characters. What your party members say is specific to each room in a dungeon, area in a town and even what NPC you spoke to last. Of course, your wife, kids and childhood friends say the best things whereas the various monsters you can recruit tend to say pretty generic things.
I actually have a DQ hentai blog (that I've been ignoring for a while now). You can check it out here: http://dragonquesttreasures.blogspot.com/

I hate it that he lowers your parties defense and he can cast a spell to triple his defense? rawr!
I just leveled up and kept having your son kabuff my party and eventually I killed him.

Probably the biggest difference between DQ and FF is that buffing your party actually makes a difference in DQ. In FF there may be the odd boss that you need to cast Reflect on your party to beat (even then, only like one or two enemies per game and it's still only a helping hand rather than a necessity) but in DQ, you'll get killed before you know it unless you raise you're defence and/or lower their attack.
Another difference is that you generally can't afford all the new equipment when you get to a new town whereas in FF you can just effortlessly glide from town to town and buy whatever equipment you like when you get there. This leads to a more realistic and almost wRPG feel; you often won't have optimal equipment and will probably find yourself with the odd bit of early equipment even when you're over 10 hours or more into the game.
Despite all that, DQ games really aren't that hard - and in fact, most DQ fans consider DQV to be the easiest one - but if you've only played FF and similar games, DQ will seem horribly punishing sometimes. That said, even FF can be more of a challenge than DQ sometimes, like with the Weapon enemies. Anyway, I recommend you play Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne or even the Persona series, then return to DQ - it'll seem like a relaxing holiday by comparison.
Generally the monster party members in DQV are better than the human ones (apart from the hero) but I just prefer having the hero's family as my party. As I say, the main thing is to buff yourself against bosses, debuff them and if they use spells, use Insulate or Insulatle (whatever they've called it this time). If they do that spell that removes all your buffs, recast them - prioritising Insulate if they use a lot of spells. If they're going nuts with debuffing you, just buff yourself a little (rather than repeatedly casting buffs until your defence maxes out) and focus on attacking and debuffing them.
Some of the monster party members get spells relatively early on (compared the human party members) that can resurrect party members (so you don't have to return to a church and pay) and heal your whole party in one go. For example, the Orc King.
Final tip: in the casino in Fortuna, there are three rows of fruit machines: 1 token, 10 token and a single 100 token one at the back. The 2nd 10 token one from the left has the highest chance of paying out of all the fruit machines.
Oh actually - Final final tip: many items in DQ have really useful effects when used in battle, even items of armour or weapons. I think the Zenithian Sword, when used as an item, will actually remove all positive spell effects from a single enemy. This is very useful for bosses that keep buffing themselves.
