Playstation The Legend of Dragoon

[Rydia]

I know what you mean Rydia. Shana was almost stalker material. I think Dart pitys her or something cause no way would someone put up with that crap in real life. I agree with that characters whose soul life purpose is to follow their loved one around is frustrating. Hes not interested! GET OVER IT! Girl needs to be left behind somewhere.

haha yeah. Was it just me or did it feel like Shana was forced on to Dart by herself and the other characters? Everyone was like "You have to be sensitive to Shana's feelings!" Well what about Dart's feelings? What if he doesn't feel the same way towards Shana? Should Shana automatically get him because she's speschul? When Dart finally said that he loved Shana too it felt like he was only doing so because he had to or everyone else would have murdered him for rejecting her :/ I'd prefer that they had just had a sibling like relationship. In fact, I prefer Dart and Rose because it would have been different than what we are typically used to in video game relationships.

It's kind of a shame because she actually started out pretty cool. (Being able to handle that prison) but she quickly went down hill.

I remember this game from so many years ago. I really enjoyed the battle system the most. Sure I can see how some people complain that the Addition System can be a bit repetitive once you actually mastered the timing but I still thought it was fun, especially preforming Dart's Madness Hero over and over. This is one of my favorite JRPGs of all time. I am still hoping they decide to make a sequel to this game.

 

[Oliver Queen]

I am also still hoping they make a sequel, but I don't think there will be one. It has been TOO long since the game was made, and I don't think developers care anymore about it.

Later when Dart and Rose fall into the ocean, I was extremely annoyed that she was crying about him in the hotel. And normally this wouldn't bother me because it's normal to mourn your lover, but I don't know... I think I found it annoying that she was crying over Dart but could have cared less that Rose could have died too. Maybe she's get better later in the game.

I think maybe the reason why she was crying at the hotel was because she lost someone that was close to her, and not so much her lover. That was how I interpreted it anyways. Though the fact that she didn't seem to care one bit about Rose was bad because Rose had helped them out with stuff too. She wasn't just around to be around.

I played The Legend of Dragoon when I was a kid, I remember buying it with my mother. It was a great game and I still own it to this day, I always think back on it and sometimes use it while making comparisons.

It's very overlooked due to people thinking it's just a FFVII rip-off when the only similarities are the graphics and main character design. It's a great game and it can usually be found for cheap. I suggest everyone picks up tLoD.

I liked the game but honestly i never got past Disc 1 (dont ask why). I liked how the game made you practice on your timings in order to do more damage. Awesome Rpg.

 

[mattbgamer]

Absolutely.Awesome.Game. I loved this game from beginning to end. The story was enthralling and the characters really grabbed onto you (except Meru....I hated Meru). The battle system was awesome, I loved how you had to press the button at the exact right time or you would get knocked back and take damage. The dragoon aspect was an awesome part of the game also, they looked sweet and they save my ass in sooo many battles.

For all those PS3 owners who else wishes that this would come onto the PSN store, I would so buy that the first day it came out.

 

[GalaxyFlare]

OMG! LOD this game was a great game back in the day......It only suffered from a lack of graphical quality. Story wise and fighting system wise it was a as good as a FF game and better n some respects.....The CGI Dragoons were some of the best early PS1 concepts IMO.

I played this earlier this year it boy it was fun.

 

[Aerius Sygale]

I liked how the game made you practice on your timings in order to do more damage. Awesome Rpg.

Yeah, I like precise button pressing in video games, be it carefully pressing a certain button, or pressing a button with good timing, it presents a good challenge, keeps you concentrated in battles, and feels rewarding when you time all the hits in the techniques that have a lot more hits in them, like Moon Strike (or something like that, one of that Dart character).

 

[GalaxyFlare]

The Additions were the better part of the battle system on LOD, even the Dragoon Additions were fun, I practiced so long to get it right and to this day I can only getit right 80% of the time.

Blazing Dynamo was and is my best Addition.

 

[Aerius Sygale]

That rings a bell, they were called Additions? Haven't played this game in years, I can barely remember details, just that it was a blast to play, and I never did finish it.

Blazing Dynamo...I think that was Dart's last Addition, was it not? Not sure Moon Strike didn't maybe have another hit in it though, but I could easily be mistaken about that. >.>

 

[GalaxyFlare]

Yeah.....um......MoonStrike was the last addition of dart and he got it at level 29?

Well the last before Blazing Dynamo.

I mastered all the additions of every character once............it was an utterly useless eperience

 

[Seru_Kai]

This game is one of my top 5 rpg's for the psx! I loved it oh so much. It may have been because I played it when I was pretty young, and the graphics were so colorful that I was amazed by them.

Sadly, I never beat it. I KNOW! I got to the 4th disc at around level 12-15, and ran into some big giant boss (I think it was a former/future party member, but I can't remember) that just kept dominating me.

Reading this thread has brought back some memories of that game, and I shall set out on a quest to beat it finally!

 

[mappel6]

I've heard that they were remaking LoD for ps3, or making a sequel. Is this true?

 

[SapphireStar]

Wheres the rumor come from? Ive never heard ANYTHING on this. Where did you hear this?

 

[Espurr]

Indeed, I would like to know this as well. As much as I enjoyed this game, I really doubt there will be a sequel now. It's be 10 years since the game came out and we have yet to hear anything about the game so I pretty much lost hope for the a sequel/prequel to come out.

 

[Oliver Queen]

Yeah, I had pretty much lost hope on a sequel like 2-3 years ago. If they decided to make a sequel now, I would want to know why it took so damn long.

 

[Captain Squee]

I agree with Joey. The closest they ever got was "Purge Dragoon" Or something like that, but that game can hardly be considered a sequel. Unless we plan on making one ourselves (Which would never happen) I don't think there will be one.

Whats Purge Dragoon? Never heard of that and its meant to be a sequel?

 

[ANGRYWOLF]

Several years ago there was talk of a sequel but it never materialized.

Several months ago there was arumor that Sony was devloping several titles including a Legend of Dragoon sequel...

nothing recently..no recent update on that rumor....

despite what was reported on gamefaqs:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/197765-the-legend-of-dragoon/51446236

Maybe we'll hear something at the next big gaming show..later on this year...

 

[Oliver Queen]

I've never heard of it either. I didn't know that they had made ANY form of sequel, and I checked very often when I was looking for it.
