Character classes are semi permanent, meaning that they cannot switch classes on a whim. In Dragon Quest III, the player may take up to three additional party members with them, the recommended balanced traditional team is Soldier, Priest and Mage but other options are available, like Merchant, Martial Artist, Thief and Gadabout. There are a few different options to set to help shape the AI behavior, but for people who want to control every party member, set the tactics to follow orders. Unlike the original NES version, this version has all recruited party members set to AI behavior in battle as their default setting. Even with the king’s bode of confidence, the hero is too weak to save the world alone so they must go recruit some party members in town. The land is threatened by the archfiend Baramos, and while most of us at sixteen are excited about trivial things, this person is saving the world from powerful evil forces. For the sweet sixteen, the son or daughter of Ortega is told by the royal monarch that there are expectations to follow in the great hero’s footsteps, whose demise was shown in the brief introductory cutscene.

This is a shame since this is one of the best entries in the Dragon Quest franchise.
The 1992 port still had 1988 graphics, so not only did other NES titles look more advanced at the time of release, but the game looked downright primitive compared to the SNES released a year prior.
In Japan it was extremely commercially successful but didn’t sell too well in the states. It was originally released on the Japanese Famicom in 1988 and but didn’t make it stateside to the NES until 1992 under the name Dragon Warrior III.
Dragon Quest III: The Seeds of Salvation is the final installment of Dragon Quest’s Erdrick trilogy.
