- This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/4.... TAS originally published on 2020-10-04.
Dragon Warrior is an epic RPG series which now spans 11 games across many systems. The second game greatly expands on the first to include a party of three heroes (all descendents of Erdrick and the hero of DW1) and battles that may include many enemies.
The world is much bigger and there are many big dungeons to explore as well. Luckily there are new abilities and items to make this easier. Enemies can randomly drop items when defeated and there is a lottery which is the precursor to the casinos which appear in each later DW game.
TheAxeMan (tasvideos.org/T...) improves the previous TAS (tasvideos.org/5...) by 1 minute and 52.5 seconds, thanks to new glitches and better optimisation. Please read the author's comments (tasvideos.org/6...) and the commentary subtitles in the encodes for more details.
You can watch the complete run played back on console ( • [TAS Verified] NES Dra... )

"Dying in battle is really easy here."
You have no idea how many freaking times I thought that myself the first time I played though this hell-grinder RPG.
The way you just experience next to no random encounters in this. You make this game look less painful than what it is
Malroth was basically a Dark Souls fight. Do small damage, and then dodge their attack
Great commentary. I enjoy your runs quite a bit due to seeing your notes in CC.
The tale of a boy and his trusty ghosts
"I see dead people. They don't know they're dead." Just another way of saying 'I suppose I had better revive thee, though thou deserve less.'
Ah yes, DQ2, the classic walking simulator.
With New Team Monster Whacking!
I beat this great game as a kid. Took slightly longer than this run, though.
LOL “slighty”
SumDeaner's Dragon Quest II runs are my favourite RPG speedruns. No running from battle, no lengthy cutscenes (after the intro), just brutally hard combat where every decision counts.
"Haha! You've fallen into my trap! Now...! Where did they go? Where did who go? What were we doing?"
I was over halfway through when I realized there were subtitles. Time to start over!
Thanks for the commentary, very enjoyable!
This was fantastic, great run and thank you for the interesting explanations and stories!
Ty TheAxeMan for the TAS
Ah darn, I was hoping this was a new run! Nice to have the old one in HD though.
This is a new run
New run, same old game
I will still never get why it is, they initially called these Dragon Warrior, rather than Dragon Quest. Just doesn’t make sense.
Dope TAS, BTW.
Shortly before the Western release of Dragon Quest, Simulations Publications released the third edition of its D&D competitor, DragonQuest, so Enix was worried about trademark infringement; as of this year, that has been the final edition of the tabletop RPG, and in 2003 (with SP having merged into TSR and then into Wizards of the Coast, and with Enix having bought Squaresoft and re-naming itself Square Enix), Square Enix, considering WotC to have abandoned its DragonQuest trademark, registered a trademark for "Dragon Quest" and started using that name two years later, with Dragon Quest VIII.
Thank you So much 👍
What i want to know is how on earth the guy took out malroth at such a low level and basically couldn't be touched that whole fight.....
RNG manipulation, the point of the whole run and video. Turn on CC for the text commentary.
What is the ax man’s real name I wonder?
Thank goodness that you get a ship in this game unlike the previous one
I have already beat this game once now the five nights at Freddy’s series is difficult kids today
Gosh we humans misjudge video games in terms of difficulty and scariness
This just felt so...strange.
Gg por ti, genial
(:
There's no récord possible in a TAS
I think there are more than 8 games by now.
11 mainline games, not to mention the re-releases and side games.
