Huh, I thought Legend of Dragoon was more like Crimson Dragon. Like you ride a Dragon and shoot stuff.

You're thinking of the Panzer Dragoon series, which also has a JRPG among its ranks though. Crimson Dragon is a spiritual successor to the main games in the series, sharing similar gameplay.

A remake of Arc 1 & 2 would be lovely. I wouldn't kick a new Dragoon or Wild Arms game out the bed either.

That would be great to see. Been way too long since Sony has made any notable 1st party JRPGs.

I hope there will be a 1st party JRPG in the pipeline. If the PS4 userbase continues to support JRPGs in Japan and overseas, it would behoove Sony to make a JRPG of their own to appeal to that fanbase.
