I've always wanted to try DQ, which one do you think I'd like best?

11 or 8 probably. Those are usually considered the best ones. I liked the DS remakes of 4-6 and the SFC remake of 3. I'd stay away from PS1 version of 7, though the 3DS version is a little better. I haven't played 9 and 10 is an MMO which has a single-player only release but it's Japan only and I never was motivated enough to mess with fan translations.

Tbh if you like any DQ, you'll probably enjoy the others. Every game has it's unique aspects but they're all kinda the same game too.

Also if spin-offs are on the table, I recommend Rocket Slime and Dragon Quest Builders 2.
