I was the guy who gave it a 6.5. I can sort of see how LoD gathered a loyal cult following ...but man the game was released on the golden era for the genre. Chrono Cross, FFIX, Xenogears, Suikoden II etc. In truth LoD was a slightly above average offering, The story was pedestrian, it had a cool battle system but  other games were better in that regard and about the only good thing that the game could do was the FMVs and stellar graphics thanks to the high production values. There were many better JRPGs in those days IMO.

Nah, Chrono Cross doesn't come even close honestly.

FFIX is amazing, I'll give you that, it really is.

LoD story was also grandiose, it knows how to progress, introduce things, pace events, be interesting, and specially be moving.

Not taking you opinions out of you, just sharing mine as well.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!  Hold your tongue!

 

Chrono Cross is amazing and is one of my top games of all time!  The fact that there has not been a third entry to this franchise kills me.  The only real flaw the game had was lack of character development for most of its over populated cast.

 

The story itself was very deep, and screw you haters, it fit nicely with the story of the game before it, Chrono Trigger.  Just because it was what some fans did not want, does not make it any less amazing!

 

LoD was a great game, but I lost interest over half way through.  You know what game did keep me drawn in?  CHRONO CROSS!

 

And that sir, is all I have to say about that!
