Horii specifically said to play 3's remake before 1&2 and you'd get a surprise at the end.
And while you're doing that, remember to pre-order Mark of Erdrick, since Horii confirmed that that is also important to DQ.

Nobody has ever finished a fan translation of this manga. The new English release is the only release. Seems they'll be releasing at a rate of 1 volume every 3 months starting September, with each volume containing 1.5 tankobans. The original run was 21 volumes, so you'll be done all of the homework for the Roto Trilogy by December 2028. That is, if they are only doing Dragon Quest Retsuden: Roto no Monshou, but if they continue into the even longer sequel series (that is itself, an interquel between DQ3 and 1), "Monshou wo Tsugu Montachi e", they will be doing another 22 volumes of materials released every three months, which will mean an addition 5.5 years of waiting, and as such, will mean you will need to wait until Summer 2034 before your prerequisites for enjoying the remakes AS HORII INTENDED are ready.
