I know I love that game more than anything else, that doesn't have anything do it though, as I said multiple times.

I'm not talking about how much I like it, but how much people are still talking about it.

There is no single way Panzer Dragoon Saga or a single Grandia game are more remembered than LoD. Seems like rose-tinted glasses are having the effect there.

The Legend of Dragoon is about as much talked as Xenogears and Suikoden 2. That's what I'm talking about, maybe you didn't see it yourself but LoD tracks a good amount of attention as those other games you consider classics.

Don't believe me? Well, I just made a research on Google Trends then.

The Legend of Dragoon vs Panzer Dragoon Saga vs Grandia 2

(Worldwide last 5 years)

The Legend of Dragoon vs Xenogears vs Suikoden 2

(Worldwide last year)

(Worldwide last 5 years)

(Worldwide since 2004)

(I know Google Trends is not like some definitive proof of interest, but it is some data)

So as we can see:

Panzer Dragoon Saga doesn't remotely compair, and Grandia 2, the oldest numbered title (so we don't get the whole series data) is also considerably lower than The Legend of Dragoon.

And The Legend of Dragoon tracks about the same as Xenogears and Suikoden 2 currently, with Xenogears having a big spyke around the end on 2017 as the only get away from them.

Also even from as back as 2004 LoD comes higher than Suikoden 2, as an example.

So again, not judging what I or anyone else think about those games personally, The Legend of Dragoon has been getting as much attention or more than those games you consider classics.

Not reading all that bullshit. lol using graphs. That is such flawed logic it's not even worth addressing.

Let it go bro. You love a mediocre game. Cool.

There is no way in heck that LoD is better than Grandia, much less Xenogears. I have played and finished the 3 games, and LoD is clearly the worst title. LoD had its shot at greatness and had the advantage of being a late gen PS1 game and a freakishly large budget. It still ranked as an average RPG when it released, because that is what it was. You are not the first person I have met that loved the game, I had a neighbor that thought the game as awesome, as it was his first and only JRPG that he had played. But for those of us how played every RPG that there was to play in the 90s and early 00's, LoD just felt mundane. It's best character was Rose, but everything else was cliched and copied from other games that came before it. Save for a few tracks even the music was pedestrian.
