I removed this:

"Blind Idiot" Translation: One may argue that the German translation of Dawn of Souls is this. Most things are translated correctly, except for Intelligence, which is translated as IQ. It's highly unlikely that anyone with an IQ lower than 20 would be qualified to save anything, much less know how to cast magic or swing a sword.


I disagree. IQ is common shorthand for "intelligence" and an IQ stat in an RPG doesn't have to be the character's literal IQ. EarthBound (1994) does the same thing in its English localization and I never thought anything of it, and IQ stats are similarly low in that game.

I think The Load should by YMMV, because for me The Monk is the Load when I play it.

YMMV doesn't work that way. YMMV is only for tropes that are marked YMMV, not when you dispute the usage of a Main trope.

Was Dragon Quest II really Final Fantasy I's main competition at the time? Dragon Quest II was several years old by then, and Dragon Quest III would be out in 2 months and frankly blew the former two out of the water.
