Beautiful game to look at (at the time). Some great music. A pretty standard battle system and the worst story I'd ever seen in a JRPG, ever. It was like Power Rangers or something.

Not true, the battle system was somewhat unique back then. though it was turned base, the addition of combos plus the ability to transform into dragoons were one of the things which made this game an instant hit to a lot of people.
Though truth be told, the story was pretty meh, the battle system, though cool was very slow and got old after a while, experience and money was so hard to come by. I mean, damn! Experience and money gained from random battles were stingy as hell. Not to mention armors were expensive. Plus they took away the coolness of the dragoon form when every other enemy after gaining the ability to transform were strong against dragoons or are extremely effective against dragoons.More often than not, you'd opt to not just transform.
But I do agree that the story was kinda weak. I remember shaking my head in disbelief as every single member of your party turned out to be dragoons...damn, what are the odds of that.
Good power ranger comparison though.
I tried re playing this a while back and it felt so sloooooowww... but still, the over all package was a good rpg. not great but still good.
