Good thread idea Jesse,

I like DQ too, it has that timeless setting and appearance; it could be 1802 there, just as easily as 2002... but,

I've always been fascinated by the cover art of COTS, what appears to be a photo re-touched to look like a painting; the woman in the background; the dark grainy turquoise of the painting appearance... Its very atmospheric, just as DQ. I'll go with COTS.

Just a thought; If I am not mistaken, there is a rainbarrel of staves-and-rings type - your standard barrel, in both DQ's and I believe in IYCRMM's cover. Thoughts ?
