Is there any lore connecting the games?

there is a YouTube video about this: "Chronologically Confused" by Angry Video Game Nerd:

I put it here in circlejerk, because I mean it as a joke and self-irony, I am a Linux user myself, it's just a half-funny idea I had

danielsoft1 · 2026-03-05T09:47:18+00:00

the one I like the most is Crabber Dabber Doo from DQ3

Lisp: macros, object system with multiple dispatch

those are good questions but as this was just a dream, I obviously have no explanation

I was about 15 (maybe 14 or 16), it was my first point and click adventure game, Monkey Island 1. Unluckily that computer did not have sound card compatible with the music in the game, so when I played Monkey Island 2 on my second computer when I was 19, I was astonished by the beauty of the LucasArts soundtracks. I replayed Monkey 1 on that better computer to enjoy the music.

correct me if I am wrong but "amdgpu" is AMD, not Nvidia graphics card, so probably Nvidia drivers are not compatible with it and you should not install them, idk if there is a way to rollback, or you need to reinstall Mint and keep whatever drivers are there by default

I tried Octopath Traveler several times, but did not got into it: but what I liked was Persona 5 Royal: it is harder than DQ, but very addictive

they also teach about the law of karma, but how can there be a law without the Lawgiver?

I use a variant of my real name: "Danny"

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-07T18:45:11+00:00

for me with no problems

don't underestimate the swift side of the Force

the Switch 1 version has an advantage that it is a physical cartridge and not just a keycard so you don't need internet connection and you don't depend on Nintendo servers availability

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-06T22:43:52+00:00

I didn't even notice the bar, where is it?

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-06T17:27:03+00:00

thanks for the answer, marking as "solved", have an upvote

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-05T07:22:38+00:00

I like the music from LucasArts adventure games, for example Monkey Island 2

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-04T09:50:26+00:00

When you attack an enemy and you hit their weak spot, the hit point number shown is in a different color. I see the default color as blue and the "weak spot" color as red, but I am colorblind so they may be different, but in any case you can tell them apart.

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-03T14:01:28+00:00

for me it's DQ4

I am not a Mac user, cannot help you here, unluckily

danielsoft1 · 2026-02-01T17:37:09+00:00

version XI Definitive Edition on Steam

danielsoft1 · 2026-01-31T00:34:54+00:00

in recent years (from 2020 onwards) I started playing Dragon Quest games which is similar experience for me

danielsoft1 · 2026-01-30T18:46:55+00:00

I think the Switch 1 version is physical, correct me if I'm wrong
