I honestly loved it. It's a full on sincere video game with a very simple yet well executed story and the 1-man army makes the game a lot more melancholic and introspectivr than later games with big parties, this is just you alone going to slay a scary dragon lord in a hostile castle. Battles all being 1 on 1 make the balance always fair, but there's less room for error too. It does feel amazing when at the end game you can kill dragons like it's nothing, the sense of power scaling is solid.
Also it's a rather small game for RPGs standards but besides the fact this is a 1986 game, the smaller scale map also plays into the melancholic feel of loneliness. You're not always reaching new kingdoms and lively towns all the time, you are just trying traveling through your own country, seeing how it's in danger and dying slowly.
A real masterpiece of video games, there's a reason Dragon Quest is as big as it is.

Not the first RPG
Not even the first JRPG
>>
Anyone saying this isn’t the first JRPG is like those fuckers claiming there was heavy metal before Black Sabbath
>>
>>12515937
Yeah I was gonna say, the whole correcting people online because "aaakckcckcshushshshualllyyyyy" has turned into a real midwit problem.
We all know what OP meant, DQ is one of the first ones AND also it IS the first one to do the classic JRPG formula you later see in Final Fantasy and 99% other JRPGs, they copy DQ, not Hydlide or Dragon & Princess or whatever
>but DQ takes from Ultima and Wizardry!
It combines elements of both and gives them a more seamless navigation and interaction system, so? Neither Wizardry nor Ultima really is like DQ either.

I look like the one on the left and say this for Mugen no Shinzou 2. You are on the right.

Yeah we all do realize OP is baiting, except you who wants to go ACKSHUALLY
>>
>>12514492
Of course it isn't the first rpg. Americans were making them way before this.
>>
>>12515946
Yes it takes elements so it isn't the first rpg at all. Japs love to copy America.
>>
Early Ultima and Wizardry play nothing like modern rpgs they might as well another genre
>>
>>12516203
Are you implying modern RPGs play like DQ1 because they play nothing like it.
>>
>>12516214
They do though more or less
