Shadow hearts battle mechanic work more or less like hot shots golf, while lod is more like parappa the rapper, I think i’m I right but I played those games when they came out so I might be wrong.
I was thinking this was a joke thread before entering it, then I realized it was serious after reading the first paragraph. I would have liked it better if it were a joke though :( i love Legend of Dragoon, it's one of my top 5 jrpgs only bested by Suikoden 2, Final Fantasy IX, VIII & VII and Star Ocean 3.
| BraLoD said: It's perfectly fine for you to drop a game as soon as you feel like, and to dislike it and say that. The problem is saying the story and characters are something when you just don't fully know what they are. Present it as "what I know of it is really bad and I don't think it'll get any better" for example, and that's perfectly fine, for example, like you did now, that's perfectly reasonable, your opinion is your opinion and it's all up to you. Now you said you finished disc 1, so I can tell you that you didn't see the actual story develop at all, you saw the beginning of it, an internal war for the control of a single country that is all but a pivot for the gigantic proportion of it, I'll spoil you here, and everyone else, so please do not read this paragraph further if you don't want to, but here it goes, SPOILER ALERT > it gets to a point that you have to invade the second moon that has fallen on earth to fight a being of 11000 years ago of a superior race that is trying to complete their world's creator will of bringing destruction to life on the planet by last species he made that was sealed on that moon by the the now almost extinct magical race superior to humans in the fight to dominate the other species 11000 years ago. Now you tell me the cliche part about any of that. < SPOILER ALERT END You don't need to be sorry, you can like or dislike any game as much as you feel like, it's your money and time, you decide what to do best with it. You made a topic about it and we are engaging on what you exposed, that's normal, no hard takes on it. You expose your points I expose mine, that's it. |
Dude, the bolded part is the definition of a jrpg stable lmao. Someone trying to ressurect and/or complete the will of an ancient species is so played out is absurd to say this isn't a clich. The plot point you described is the almost the same concept you see in FFVII for example. Sephiroth is trying to do the exact same thing hue. The specifics of how he tries to do is different of course, but the concept is already full played. Not even the moon is an original idea, FFIV had that. I'm not saying this doesn't sound like cool concept,i like jrpgs for things like that, but if in 20 hours i didn't liked the cast or the combat, is not enough to change my mind this late in the game. That really doesn't sell me in this game at all.
And yeah, it's all good. I knew this post would probably have disagreements.
| BraLoD said: I don't think that's a cliche at all. Sure world domination or destruction is, but what drives that to that point is not, and that's what we enjoy while playing the games. |
No dude, all of it is. We're just gonna have to disagree in this one which is fine. But that doesn't sound different from the standart jrpg at all. At all.
Hurray, BraLoD woke up!

Legend of dragoon is awesome, and I want a remake/sequel!! :D
I disagree entirely. I love FF VIII and VII more but LoD is right behind them with regards to PS1 RPGs for me. The soundtrack is brilliant, the combat is fun and the story is interesting enough to keep you engaged.
I agree with OP then again i dislike almost all JRPGs

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Almost? Which is it you do like?
Never played LoD myself, it came out on PS1 after PS2 released in the UK, now it's like £80 on eBay.
Hmm, pie.
