I promised it in May, just in the nick of time. Some real life stuff has delayed production, and I am prepping to move, so I know there may be delays in the future. For now, the May Patron Video will be later this week, and I'll be jumping straight into the next Patron pick (another RPG).
You can't see me, but I'm doing the happy dance right now. Time for my afternoon coffee, my couch, and this video. Thanks!
You do these SO well and I watch a lot of these MANY times over. Would you ever consider doing Vagrant Story in the future if you haven't already?
lonman80 Haven't done Vagrant Story .... yet (will do in the future)
I wasn't able to beat this game in my youth. It's nice to finally have a great summary of the story.
EDIT
Also, if you're taking requests/suggestions, I did enjoy MegaMan Legends very much. 😏
If I may say these are very nice but at some point you have to start doing the breath of fire series brothers
Back when JRPG used to be long and full of content. This totally deserves a remake.
Persona 5 and The Legend of heroes games seem to be returning to form.
P5 is cancerous though....
How so?
Now a day they focus on graphics less content mechanic
you do know these games are way shorter then todays games right?
People talk about Aerith from ff7 when they experienced for the first time the death of a party member... but my first time was my Boy Lavitz man... His mama is still waiting for him to come home T-T
Aerith was no surprise. Way too much foreshadowing.
Lavitz was a total freaking shocker. Remembering the only words one could only mumble..
No way man..
I was not ready for the feels.
Late reply lol but when I was a kid and Lavitz died for the first time in my playthrough, one of my friends had called my house trying to like hang out or whatever, and one of my parents handed me the phone to talk to them and I was just CRYING lmfao
LAVITZZZZZZ😭😭😭😭
Sad days
I'm currently playing through this with my kids (6 and 10 years old). They got hooked instantly and are nuts about the story, the later additions are too difficult for them but they're fine just watching and reading the dialogue. They absolutely lost their shit with the revelations at the end of disc 3. They progressed through all the stages of grief, denial, anger acceptance and so on. The next morning they were discussing it over their Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
That’s dope man ! Really good memories playing This with my grandpa when i was like 7-8 years old. It was amazing so i know they’re loving it
I never finished the game but I will say that I used volcano all the way up to fighting zieg lol
If ever there was a game that needed a revival, it is Legend of Dragoon. To this day, the gameplay, story, and execution was completely unique, refreshingly original, and had an epic story and conclusion that is still talked about 20 years later. If ever there was a game that came close to outdoing the masterwork that is Final Fantasy VII, this is it.
Agreed. Hard to decide which one is better.. I would say ff7 by a hair
That and Final Fantasy 6
I'd recommend trying Shadow Hearts and Shadow Hearts: Covenant (both PS2 era) for a non- Final Fantasy RPG that still has a rhythm element to its attacks
One of the best freaking games I played as a teen! So good!! I still have the original game! I wish they would remaster or remake the game. Such a masterpiece.
Alex Ortiz I know, right. What are they waiting for?
Alex Ortiz Me too!
I'd rather have the "war" that is referenced in Roses backstory as the game instead. The games story has been told already. I want more of "11,000 years ago."
Yeah if you haven't know the secret about being an IMMORTAL PARTY
mike hutchinson A prequel set during the Dragon Campaign would be great, but knowing how it ended for the Dragoons would make the ending a tragedy.
Haschel have one of the best histories of all rpg characters, really underrated, travelling 20 years to find his missing daughter, but discovers she already dead, but left a son. Now he fight alongside Dart (they meet before game events), making his journey painful and a the same time happy. Lost his daughter, but found his grandson and new friends to fight for, side by side. Amazing.
🎉🎉
In my opinion, one of the best RPGs of all time. Thanks for taking this game into consideration.
alarsenal10
Eeeehhhh, I wouldn't go that far, I don't think I would say it's the best RPG in the PSOne. IMO, I don't think it breaks the top five, maybe even top ten on the PSOne. Valkyrie Profile, Vagrant Story, FFVII, FFVIII, FFIX, Breath of Fire III & IV, Suikoden I & II, Parasite Eve I & II, Xenogears, Chrono Cross, Wild Arms I & II, Grandia, Legend of Legaia, Persona 2 (both of them), Dragon Quest VII, Tales of Destiny II, and Lunar SSSC & EBC are JRPGs that I'd personally place above Legend if the Dragoon. If we start counting Tactical JRPGs then the List sky rockets even higher. It was a great game at the time, but man that story just drags around halfway of the third disc. It just kind of becomes, idk, I don't want to say bad, but not good. I loved the additions, but kind of hated that the Dragoon transformations were kind of useless. I would say it's a great game, but not among the best of all time, or really even the best the PSOne had to offer. Although, that's kind of a testament to the Systems library, that a game this good doesn't even crack the jrpg top ten or twenty jrpg titles on it.
Of course it's subjective, and on gamefaqs it's listed at thirteenth best jrpg for the PSX, beating out Grandia, BoF III & IV, Wild Arms I & II, DQVIII, Legend of Legaia, and Person 2 (it beating out BoF, Grandia, and DQ kind of stunned me tbh, those are widely held as pinnacles/classic of the JRPG sub-genre). I can see it beating our Persona and Wild Arms, I don't think those aged as well and I think I may like them more from a nostalgic perspective or from a analytical one (Wild Arms and Persona respectively). Such a great console though, I think it beat out the PS2 for JRPGs. Is parasite Eve and tales of games considered action-RPGs and not jrpgs? If so it raises its spot by a bit :P
There are quite a bit of amazing Jrpgs on psone. The ps1~ps2 era is the golden age of Jrps IMO.
Wade Schipprack the comment said one of the best, and all the ones you mentioned, are in your opinion. others will have different opinions. I don't put ff8, 9, legend of legai, persona 2, dq 7 or many of the rs you mentioned above of legend of dragoon AT ALL. and yet some people might, like you. and many of the people here who liked dragoon would agree with me. so it's important you state in your opinion. this game for me is without a doubt one of the best jrpg that came out
blkwng
I did say it was my opinion as well as a collective opinion (which should hold weight for the best of all time type scenario). I would have liked it a lot more if the story stayed more coherent, it kind of fizzled out sometime during the third disc. Mechanically it's amazing, but JRPGs need a pretty strong story. I think a good story is as important than mechanics. Maybe even more so, idk, I can play a JRPG with mediocre mechanics but a good story. Not the reverse, great mechanics definitely, but only good? Nah. It's one of the few genres where the story really makes or breaks the game. It kind of sucks as LotD's story started off fairly strong. It looked like it was going to be a political drama with a puppeteer pulling the strings and a dangerous supernatural force lurking in the shadows. Too bad, it could have been an epic story, it had the foundation for one.
I guess DQ7 isn't worth playing now that a better version is one the 3DS and the same for Persona and BoF III on the PSP. But a lot of the others don't have better versions anywhere else. Which is odd considering everything seems to get remade/ported to portables today.
blkwng other than ff8 I actually think those you listed did have weak story's, and in some cases mechanical issues, I thought dragoons story was phenomenal and this recap while it does go over it pretty thoroughly doesn't capture the drama due to the differences in tough story fights compared to traditional encounters
I once asked for "Spyro 3 - Year of the Dragon" in a store and they accidentally brought me "The Legend of Dragoon". I was so glad they made a mistake. :D
I had a similar thing happen. I was young and had heard that final Fantasy was good so asked the game section guy for a final fantasy game and he brought me this!
@@erichall090909 BRUH!!!
@@erichall090909 LOL
This game was absolutely amazing. I remember buying it on a whim, with zero idea of what it was, and once I loaded it up, lost TONS of sleep!
Same! Saw the commercial and begged my mom for it... it was $50 at the time and we were broke but she still got it for me. I have such a deep attachment to this game. It's my treasure
lol same thing happened to me! but I bought two copies! because my dad wrote our names on the CD because I was a kid at the time. And it was destroyed and we loved that game. so he got us another XD. that game was my childhood!
From the bottom of my heart, thanks for making this recap. The Legend of Dragoon is one of those hidden gems that never left me. I was only able to play it on the PS1 when I borrowed the CDs from a friend but never got to finish it, 5 years later I was able to play the game but lost my save file and I stopped, another 5 years later I was able to play the game through an emulator and finished it. I was so happy and sad a the same time because my journey ended. It was a good run.
How do I get it on emulator
@@dylanh71493 there are a ton of rom and cdo website out there. I use emu paradise myself.
Getting the Playstation emulator. to run smoothly can be a little tricky. But I was able to ruin it almost lag free on a shitty pc.
I still can't find all the discs. I've only played the first three discs. And I forgot what happens in the game. All I remember is that this is the game that started my love for rpgs and jrpgs like legend of dragoon, final fantasy, and summoner.
WHAT is Legend of Dragoon you ask? Short answer: one of the greatest games of the PsX era. Heck, of all time.
Ok,, you want more details? The story is a masterpiece, and just might be one of the greatest stories ever told in video game history. The characters are unforgettable, the plot is full of twists and turns. You learn more and more about the characters as the story progresses. Rose in particular is masterfully written.
Gameplay wise, the game is tough. Some boss fights are very difficult, and you can easily die (which is not common these days). Dragoon form is powerful and FEELS powerful, but is also weak at the same time (it is not an "i win" button). Additions are fun, and are rewarding when done completely. Items play an important role in the game. The game rewards exploration with some powerful repeatable items (items that dont go away after one use, these items are invaluable), weapons, and even optional boss fights which can be quite challenging.
Optional Boss example: Magician Faust. This is an end game optional boss who is both so fast (he gets to attack MULTIPLE times for every ONE time ONE of your characters acts), and hits your party so hard that you HAVE to have a very particular gear set to beat him. Oh and some of that gear is missable and other pieces of that gear cost a completely ridicules amount of money in a game where money is VERY scarce. Even when equipped properly he is easily harder than the final boss of the game who is already no slouch.
The musical score is just like the rest of the game. Incredible.
All in all, it is a masterpiece. 10/10, if you haven't played it, GO! NOW! Play it! I COMMAND YOUUUUUUUU! No but seriously, its a fantastic game and i am certain you will not regret it.
Fuck Faust, hardest secret boss I've ever fought.
I actually never knew about Faust, but most of the game is fairly easy if you master the additions
Really loved the "addition" system in the game, Albert is still my favorite character though he's a glass cannon. I tried Final Fantasy games after Legend of Dragoon and honestly it was like trying to eat stones as dinner after having normal healthy edible delicious meal as lunch. Gave up and never looked back. Hope they remake or remaster this game, for many people have missed it out and besides, this game is pure gold both in terms of story and combat mechanics.
Faust though.. My last playthrough, i sold everything but the equipment currently being used, bought nothing, and still was only able to afford two legend casques for the fight. Still one of the hardest fights around, but not nearly as difficult as chocobo racing in ffx..
Most nostalgic game for me as a 8 year old trying to beat the game and getting lost and stuck every 15 minutes. Took me over a year to beat it with some restless Friday nights trying to find out where to go next only to fail and try the next day since there was no internet to cheat and watch a play through. I'll always love this game and it was a huge accomplishment only being 8.
same
I know I’m like 5 years late but this was my experience with it too 😅
The fucking backgrounds in this game did such an amazing job making you feel the setting.
I haven't played The Legend of Dragoon since around 2004/2005 and have been wanting to re-visit it again, and now I think is the perfect time. Thanks for making this video!
They NEED to remake this game for the love of everything holy, this is the most underrated JRPG ever
This game needs to be remastered. No remake. No sequel. Only remastered.
Joshua Hernández completely agree
A sequel was in planning phases, but was silently canceled. I would be happy with a remaster, though :)
Joshua Hernández I agree
Ivalice VKP but I wonder what their reason behind canceling it, and why they haven't remastered it
Possibly the team moved on to other projects and Sony wanted to focus elsewhere.
"Huh, Ha, Harpooooon!"

...
Oh wait, there is another.
"EXPLOSION... AAAAGGH! DING!"
lmao!
Holy shit I can hear that
VOLCANO!
Burning slash!

Once the music kicked in at 4:29 and you began the explanation of Hoax I started tearing up. Man, that was a wave of nostalgia. Seeing this massive man do cutscene attacks and pulverize my team, only for the mysterious chick to come back with wings and empower me to do the same shit back to him was powerful. Probably my favorite moment in this game. It's one of the most moving moments in LotD.
I'm a simple man. I see Legend of Dragoon in my feed, I click on it.
Rest In Peace... Lavitz... you were the best bro anyone could ever ask for.
Shana and Dart’s son should be named Lavitz. Best wingman of the game
@@kennethjose7159, YES! THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING!!!
I finished this game so many times that i lost count. Maybe 15 times. It was so damn good! This game talked about god, religion, race diversities, politics, apocalypse, love, friendship, loyalty, jealousy, and many other things. It had it all! And every thing left open in one of the four discs, was closed in the next disc. They didn't leave nothing to chance i guess. The story was so great and the way the story was delivered was even better. Truely a timeless masterpiece. I hope one day it'll get the deserved remake. Or i hope i get so rich that i can do the remake myself. A gem every player should try at least once.
PS you did an awesome job at recap all this story! You covered almost everything, so great job! I watched it like it was nothing. ;)
I love The Legend of Dragoon to no end!!
one of my favorite games and one of the first rpg's I played as a kid and still love as an adult. BURNING RUSH!!!!!
MADNESS....HERO!
CAT'S CRADLE
Carmelita White Five Ring Shattering !!!
I must have heard "double slash" a thousand times lol
Carmelita White just finish it in an emulator Gust of wind dance (king.albert)
This game was so amazing. I remember playing it back in the early 200's when i was like 14, 15. Thank you for this awesome blast from the past :D
I'm 21. This game taught me to read when I was three. I know it's not like it was the most appropriate game for a toddler to play, but it literally drove my appreciation for JRPG games.
Every time I see this game, my all time favorite Playstation release (next to ape escape, of course,) I actually get so worked up emotionally, because nobody seems to know or remember this game.
It's basically the unspoken cult classic of Ps1 JRPGs. I love it so much and I hold it dearly to my heart.
You really just made my day! I still own this game on my PS3. You sir get a permanent subscriber.
Parietal Polymath I have the disc copy
tre97able how did that happen?
Still to this day is one of if not my favorite game of all time. It has the best story and characters out of any game I've ever played. I admit I cried several times during the game, especially at the end. The Legend of Dragoon is the definition of a masterpiece.
It also has a awesome score, so much that I sometimes use the extended version of the world map music when I'm on the city bus or hitchhiking just have feeling of being in my own game lol
15 minutes and 15 sec's has got to be a record for finishing the 1st 2 disc's of the game.
Your recap is reminding me of the parts I had forgot thank you.
That opening song, my goodness, beyond beautiful in ways undescribable.
One of my fave PS games. i have managed somehow to have 3 copies of it. such a great game with lots of play to attempt to 100% complete everything in the game.
UniTearIca it's weird that you have 3 copies of it
Me too, the greatest hits version, the normal version and the psn version.
sobrev1viente I just have the Greatest Hits version
Hamot Nihc Awesome.
I have 7 copies. Lol. Including 1 Japanese copy.
I remember, I used to play this during friday nights until morning when I was still in my 1st year in highschool. Can't believe that time passed so much. Its been almost 16 hours.
I absolutely loved this game. It was amazing at the time. I literally made my first best friend over this game.
always loved the opening song.
I was always a die hard fan of the indel castle theme. I would literally just stand in the castle for hours letting the music play in the background while doing other things.
i actually loved this more than the final fantasy series....
still loves final fantasy though
Same, I had gotten both games on my birthday and played dragoon way more!
This game was and is way better than any FF game ever made and will ever make.
@@veiledxpariah Oof, let's not go that far.
@@viewtifulgold4223 lol sorry forgot to say in my opinion 😅
It's all good, amigo. LOD is an amazing game though!
i admit this is the best storyplotline and rpg I enjoyed the most in all my lifetime!!!!
To this day it's still in my top 5 games of all time. I replay it every few years and it never gets old. A remake of this game could be phenomenal. But doubt it'll happen.
Why can't sony just remaster this game for us? Fans have been asking for a very long time. There have been so many Final Fantasy games created and FF7 has been remade numerous times. This game is by far more heart throbbing, epic and emotionally touching. PLEASE SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!
um....ff7 still hasn't had it's FIRST remake, the hell are you talking about? It got ported to steam, but that is not "remade" it plays exactly the same. Literally nothing was changed. Also, as a fan of both games, i don't agree that LoD is more "heart throbbing". Literally nothing in LoG tops aeris' death scene/burial. LoD has a way better story in general though, and top notch ending.
ff7 has had prequels and sequels spawned after it since you are forgetting that and aeris deaths being tragic is entirely ur opinion as i found lavitz death tragic af too he was my best character at the time :(
I've played both, ff7 is amazing! Awesome game, but legend of dragoon was more fun due to the game play.
As it's been already addressed, FF7 is still waiting for a remake, amd while I don't remember much of this game, I do know that I loved it, and found a pre-owned copy from Gamestop's online store for $15. It just arrived and I'm about to dive head first into it....as soon as my ordered PS1 memory card also arrives. 😅
that music at the end just sends chills through the body. Man I miss games like this.
"Lets cut it down to size with a reca..."
HOLY SHIT I GET IT NOW!!
Decapitation+Recap!
This man gets it :)
MIND BLOWN!
I got it right away, but I don't think it's because I'm smarter, I just have a dad and two brothers that are constantly making puns, so I'm more accustomed to recognizing them.
Not the quickest are you?....
It was such an awesome game, and a plot roller coaster. GO GO POWER RANGERS!
Saddest part of the game is when Lavitz said good bye to Dart and Albert... LOL it's almost 20 years now and i still remember their names... Dart, Rose, Lavitz, Shana, Meru, Kongol, Haschel, Albert & Miranda...
Just goes to show how wonderful the characters were developed through the game.
Never liked Miranda
@@tri1937 same 😂
Meru for life!!!!! Haiiiiisss if only there is a true life meru
I played Legend of Dragoon and it was a great game. I do hope it gets a PS5 remake and if it does, here’s a list of improvements.
1. Let the players choose their additions during combat instead of changing each addition in the menu
2. Show the weapons of each characters like new swords, rapiers, spears, bows, gloves, hammers and axes
3. Show the hp of each enemy and boss during combat
4. Add a fast travel system so players can go to certain areas like cities or dungeons
5. Use fully voice acted moments in cutscenes
6. Show the enemies in each location instead of a random encounter when the arrow turns red
7. No limit in terms of items like potions and magic items
8. New game plus
9. Update the graphics
10. Fix the script in terms of dialogue
11. Keep the addition system
12. Have more uses of each button during combat like circle, x, triangle and square when using additions
13. Expand upon the minatos as well as the new the 102 species born from the divine tree
And here’s my idea for the Legend of Dragoon PS5 remake voice cast.
Dart: voiced by either Ray Chase* or Zach Aguilar or Robbie Daymond or max mittleman or David gallegher or Bryce papenbrook
Rose: voiced by either Christina Vee* or Allegra Clark or Erica Mendez or Chermi Leigh

Kongol: voiced by either Patrick Seitz or Joe DiMaggio or Kevin Michael Richardson*
Miranda: voiced by either Erica Lindbeck or Chermi Leigh or Laura Post or Julie Ann taylor or Britney Cox*
Lloyd: voiced by either Robbie daymond* or Xander mobus or Robin atkin downes or crispen freeman or Kirk Thornton

One of my favorite games of all time. Thank you for doing this and lets hope for a remake or sequel sometime very soon.
man i got chills hearing the background music, this nostalgic feeling, good ol' times... been huge FF fan but LoD have a special place in my childhood. this game have so much prequel potential, we still dont know the details about the dragon campaign war 11.000 years ago, emperor diaz & zieg's fellow dragoon, and the huge ballista that used to shot down winglies flying fortress, aaah we need more.
My favorite game of all time
Definitely in my Top 3
@@chasestredic ikr
Now this was a really great game! Man I missed playing this game so much fun! Great times
This game is my whole heart. 20 years later and my cousin and I are STILL quoting it to each other during our few family get togethers. Thanks for this video!
I loved this game I remember turbo controller made you OP with items that hurt enemies.
LOL thought I was the only one who knew this hack!
I remember playing this game for the first time when I was in college, finishing it, and being blown away by both the graphics of it at the time and also the storyline/ gameplay. One of the most underrated RPG's out there, and hopefully people are playing it again, as I have thought about that multiple times. Still got an old copy of it and will probably fire it up soon. This recap was just what I needed to get inspired to play this epic game again! So thank you for that!
One of the greatest video games of all times!
Thank you for this video, I enjoyed it lots! =D
I've literally played and beaten this game thousands of times, but yet I'm still able to enjoy these walkthrough explanation videos of this game. I don't understand why this game hadn't had more done with it.
My very first JRPG and my favorite.
This game is the whole package! Music, story,...everything about this game is great!
A remaster with at least 40 trophies is needed💪
BlackBond0007 I don't care for trophies, but yes, I would love a remaster
Now i want to make a wishful trophy list lol
One of those trophies is gonna be to get all those annoying as hell stardust. Oh look at this barrel that looks like it's just scenery, guess what, it's actually stardust!
They should make the second game and remaster the first
After many years I’d intending to get around to this game, I finally finished it today. Such an amazing game and I was very surprised at how impressed I would be at its depth a design, even in 2021. Many modern games lack the depth and heart that this game has.
this was one of my favorite non square-soft games of that era.
This game is very underrated. It was my teenage years. I remember the first two discs and the last two i forgot. It has always stuck with me. When I meet a dude I say Legend of Dragoon. He never heard of it. It's amazing, I would love a remastering of it.
One of my favorite JRPG of all time!
I had played and owned this game forever ago. I probably have the disk around somewhere too but it's just so hard to get back into a game like this with technology's march. I want to thank you for letting me relive it a bit. You are appreciated.
Thanks so much for the story summary. This was one of the games I didn't manage to finish back then. I noticed a few caption amendments needed:
11:14 astronomer

23:52 immortal magic in the magic choker
26:15 it’s

28:52 wedded
Hope this helps.
Thank you very much, I have made these corrections.
Playing TLoD was like playing an anime. The story and characters were both fantastic, the music was absolutely amazing, the cutscenes were well done, and the combat system was fantastic, especially the additions. If I had any critique of the game, it would have been the magic system, what little there was. I never liked having to use items to cast spells and then mash the button to make them stronger, because it always made my hand hurt and cramp up.
When I replayed it as an adult, after many years of experience watching anime, I realized how similar it was in so many respects to anime, and it made me love it even more. Thanks for a great recap!
I always stopped using the green dragoon after Albert was the replacement. Lavitz, you were the chosen one!
Thank you so much OBM . This game needs more attention now . I miss it so much
this is only the greatest non final fantasy rpg game ever created and it deserves to be rebooted in all its glory on a newer system
Joshus Zimmermsn facts facts facts!
Ooo idk, I think chrono trigger takes the cake. But definitely non square-enix game
I hope you hit that 100k soon. Been following you since forever.
I know the story beginning to end, end to beginning, middle to beginning and middle to end.
This why I subbed to you, not many people played this, I looked for reviews an it's basically just you. Which is a shame more people didn't play it when it came out it was insane
I just want to say that getting Kongols dragoon spirit from the merchant is an optional thing, not an actual required part of the story. If you don't pick it up from the merchant you end up acquiring it near the end of the game, when Kongol fights his brother.
The Spirit from the Merchant is the most canon thing as the other option is only from a ghost.
this is an epic game , it deserves a remake , imagine playing it on a next gen console
Probably the best jrpg i have ever played. So underrated!
ahh nice Oni. I just replayed this game about a year ago and was surprised by how well it held up lol. I hit 100+ hours but had only just made it to the moon section. I forgot Rose dies ;_; best girl
AceCube rip lavitz too :(
AceCube when 1st time play this game one think in my mind....why dart not dump shana somewhere and choose rose...
favorite moment of the game was Dart's first transformation. I cannot explain how epic that moment felt! The music, the action, the sense of power, it all came together in one of the greatest video games scenes I'd ever experienced.
Thanks again for another fantastic video. I'll make a request for *any* of the Mana games. I'll see you on the next battlefield.
I see you request that often... you may be getting your wish sooner than you think. Stay tuned this next month!
I have finished this game at least three times in the past and always thoroughly enjoyed it! I find the story line to be very well-written and interesting. The little twists/revelations toward the end about the true identity of Rose (as the Black Monster), Zieg, and the Moon Child: awesome!
where can I find that CG cinematic of Dart Transforming into the Dragoon for the first time? I know there is a Cut scene of it somewhere, and not the one from the original game. It was a HD CG of him transforming. I am going crazy not being able to find it anywhere at all. Can anyone help me with this. I've searched it all over youtube, too.
This was one of my favorite games. Loved the story and the innovative combat system for the time.
I still got my original black label case never selling it
Jose Nunez I found it at my local swap meet for $1 but the front label has water damage
I got 2 greatest hits versions one scatched to hell and the other almost flawless
this was my first JRPG i ever played and it opened a door to a awesome new gaming world. RPGs are my main jam now and it all began with LOTD
God this game is sooo Good soooo dame Good, even now it is a diamant like FF7-8-9 , the story the gameplay, the items the secrets all are realy top class and even now if youcan get your hands on it do it and you will never regret it!!^^!! This game needs a HD remake overhoul and it wude me a hit even right now ;)
Can download it anytime on my phone for free and I will as soon as I finish playing koudelka. Legend of legaia was also a great game.
my absolute all time favorite game, and i dont really ever expect that to change
the world need a remaster of this game!!!!!!!!!!! sony!!!!!!!!!
amazing recap i have to say this was worth the watch i loved this game as a child and even came back to play it again a few years back. if they remastered this game (probably wont happen) i would buy it and play it endlessly.
great game, one of the best.
wonderful video, it reminds me a lot. I replayed this game recently. almost 20 years past, it's still a legend.
My favorite PS1 game ever!
Favorite childhood game. I got stuck at that damn snake and once I got passed it, it was the most uplifting feeling ever.
loved this game.. it was hard as hell to
Theb0YWh0lived1 right!? also some of haschels combos were impossible
yeah lol.. i just remember once i got to Dole having trouble with pretty much every boss after him.. which made it feel amazing when you did beat the boss.. and you realy could not grind and over level stuff cause how the lvl ups worked
yeah, I rem I couldn''t play it right when I was not in right mood / when i lost concentration.
Theb0YWh0lived1 hard if u're underleved or got bad luck like u got spam by the boss with his strongest move over n over or got rect with the enemy's one hit ko move 😆
Really? I don't think the game is that hard (the final boss is a pushover even without grinding.). I don't think i ever lost to a boss. Not even when i accidentally used dragoon form against the boss with the dragon staff. It's harder than several other rpgs, granted (ff8 is a cakewalk by comparison for example) but i never found it overly difficult. Love the addition system. Despite what Mike G said, haschels combos aren't that hard either. They were hard-ER when i was ten, but i recently (about a six months ago) replayed the game and had no problem with additions.
I remember playing this game for the first time. I had gotten it cheap because it was apart of the "Greatest Hits Collection" that Sony had (which basically meant that the price for games in this collection drop from $39.99 to $19.99), and I vividly remember getting to the desert where all of your battles are initiated when you touch a roaming monster. I ended up giving up on the game for about a year, then decided to try it again, but I had the knowledge of what was to come thanks to my previous experience.
After I had gotten back to the point where I abandoned my journey in my previous play through, I soon figured out the 'Tricks of the Sand Shoots,' and got back to feeling that sense of wonder that everybody feels when they experience something new for the first time.
This game was a Diamond among the Gems of it's Era. I Wish Sony would Follow the route of Square and do a Remake of this fantastic piece of art and story telling genius, or at least continue the story... but I really don't see either of those happening in my lifetime.
Fantastic Video!
I don't see a cover for what is Jade Cacoon, The Gollarians, Shadowman, Forsaken. :D it be nice to see those topics ;D
Jade cacoon was a good ass game!
I've never heard of this game until recently since I've seen a handful of people possibly wanted this game remade. I'm only 7 minutes into this video and I can already see why, it sounds pretty great.
They should remake this game it's one of the best games of all times!
They don't make em' like this anymore , I had chills when you were replaying some of the music
If they speed up the combat a bit, I'd throw cash down for a remaster
I know you can have all 4 discs in one nowadays game disc but having 4 discs tells ya how far your in the story and the final disc is AWESOME
I feel if you fixed the Engrish on this game and made Dart a little bit more compelling as a character (just a little bit), this game could make a great anime,, probably best as like a Netflix original series for proper binging purposes.
...And that's why this is my favorite game if all time!!! So good, badass music, amazing story. It should piss you all off to know a sequal was in the works... And they canned it!!! Remaster! Please!
Awesome!
OMG my childhood, I remember loving this game. I wish they made sequel.
I'd rather a remake/remaster of this than ff7 tbh :) this wasn't a perfect game (due to spelling mistakes, and certain other little things here and there :)) but it was pretty damn close! The addition system/dragoons were epic as fuck! The story was awesome even though it kind of fell off sometimes but I was still immersed deeply into it :) This game has a special place in my heart along with legend of legaia and of course the ff series
XgwtfbroX why can't we have a remake of both? They're both epic games. :)
