Line 46:
** Evil Jessica in Memoriam's charm attack will always work on your male party members, effectively forcing you to switch to using Red and Jessica for most of the battle.
* [[That One Boss]]: ''Dragon Quest VIII'' can be difficult if you have a habit of skipping fights, but Dhoulmagus is the crowd favorite for this title, though. He has two forms - his first, where he splits into three copies of himself, and the second, where he {{spoiler|assumes a demon form that is somehow even stronger than the combined might of the three from the previous fight}}.
* [[Tier-Induced Scrappy]]: Just about everyone has at least one useless or underperforming skill besides Fisticuffs (which are, ironically, only really good on Yangus).
* [[Unfortunate Implications]] - Don't tell me you didn't raise an eyebrow when you saw the 'priest' in Tryan Gully.▼
** Yangus deserves special mention due to the fact that Axes are essentially his only ''good'' skill tree due to the abilities being good ''and'' Axes being the most available weapons for him. Sure, he gets a rather hilarious attack if he maxes out Humanity, but to a lot, his low MP really doesn't justify investing so much, especially when he can learn some very useful axe abilities instead.
▲* [[Unfortunate Implications]]
** Well, in this world [[Our Demons Are Different]], and they aren't all evil. You can even meet a good Archdemon monster inside the inn.
* [[Values Dissonance]]: The 3DS changes: the censorship of Jessica's outfits were actually because what the game could get away with in 2004 versus 2015 has changed.
* [[Win Back the Crowd]]: After the resounding failure of ''Dragon Quest VII'' (in the west), ''Dragon Quest VIII'' was released to massive sales and critical acclaim and successfully renewed interest in the franchise in the west.
