This guide covers Part 65 of Dragon Quest IV. Learn about version history, content updates, and the author's progress in developing this comprehensive walkthrough.
Hey there! Welcome to Part 65 of our Dragon Quest IV journey. This section isn't about a specific quest or boss fight, but rather a look at the development of this very guide you're reading!
The author, snkupo, started this guide back on July 1, 2008. Over time, they've been diligently working on it, updating it with new content and fixes. It's pretty cool to see the progress, right? They've covered a lot, from Torneko's chapter all the way through Chapter V, and even tackled optional areas like Aamon and Pioneer Town.
You'll find details about when major sections were completed, like finishing Chapter IV, reaching Estark's awakening, and adding dungeons like Foo Yung and Chow Mein's. They've also been working on lists for items, equipment, spells, and skills, and even managed to include all the Mini Medal locations (except for those in Boom Town). It's a massive undertaking, and the author has been updating the version history to keep track of it all.
