searching up the legend of dragoon ost to listen to and see a Completionist review came out for the game, hell yeah.

Legend of Dragoon is so good! When I was a kid, my Dad and I would play it at night. It was a great introduction to gaming and had a great time hanging with my Dad. I have replayed it multiple times now too for the nostalgia.

I didn't play a square games until decades after their releases. legend of dragoon had my heart from the start.

Same, my cousin introduced this to me and i’ve never been mesmerized like never before

Legend of Dragoon was what got me into RPGs. still one of my top 3 games and love everything about it.

I love to talk to npc before and after a major event. then come back much later to see if the dialogue changed. you learn so many things about the world.

I actually used my dragoon forms mostly in regular battles, namely the heal or buff spells. I find that in many battles dragoon forms are a hindrance instead of a advantage. I usually just spam the attack items that clog my inventory.

Love me Legend of Dragoon, but I have to say I think Xenogears and Legend of Legaia are a bit better imo. I'd actually say the best PS1 RPGs are FFTactics and Xenogears tied for 1, followed by Legend of Legaia and Legend of Dragoon. Then we get into games like FF9, 7 and so on.

Not releated but do you think you could talk about soul sacrifice? Pretty please.

We need a Remake or remaster please Sony!

To be fair regarding grinding additions, even without doing actual level grinding, you'll generally have at LEAST 5 of your additions maxed out by the time you even get to the final boss area (at least for Dart and Albert assuming you keep them in your main party, because why wouldn't you.) I can understand it being annoying for completionism, having to also do Kongol's and Haschels stuff, but Rose only has 4 in total, Miranda (the most OP late game character in the game) doesn't have any, and Meru's are fun, so it's not that bad imo for a casual playthrough. Also, yes, Legend Casque is the most busted piece of equipment in the game lol. Getting one of those for Dart and Albert each makes you an unstoppable god.

For those having a hard time leveling up additions. There is an accessory that automatically uses the full addition move. I don't think you get as much SP for it because you aren't actually doing the presses yourself. But it DOES count toward successful uses. So having a hard time landing the button presses? Just equip the accessory and do a few hundred fights. It'll be maxed out without much strife. The biggest downside to this is it takes your accessory slot from the character. But if you're not using a specific accessory for some big bonus to your build. Then just get the easy addition usage.

still worth playing today if you're ok with old graphics. The story and gameplay are phenomenal. in my top 5 games for the console ever.

My all time favorite game!! My first rpg, the nostalgia!! Thanks for bringing love to these game!

Gawd, I remember watching my brother play this when I was a kid. It was one of my favorite games to watch him play.

The Legend of Dragoon is my absolute #1 FAVORITE turn based RPG ever made. To this day, I feel it is genuinely an underrated gem, and that it is ridiculous that it hasn't received some form of remaster. If there ever came a day where a remastered or full on remade version was created, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The gameplay, story, and world live rent free in my mind, to this day, as do the countless voice clips from the party's various Additions. Legend of Dragoon is a game I'd gladly replay at any time, no matter how many times I've already beaten it, and I think modern day turn based RPG's could learn a lesson or two from it, even now. Thank you for making an episode on this game, Jirard, this was truly a gift I wasn't expecting to receive, out of the blue, even though I know it obviously wasn't made for me. Can't wait for whatever you have coming up next my guy.

Years later it was released on the PS3 Playstation store and I finally completed it nearly a decade later. Needless to say, it holds a near and dear place in my heart and I'm happy to see it get any coverage.

Plus the soundtrack for 3 is top notch. To this day I still occasionally go back and listen to the random battle theme.

Albert is overall weaker than Lavitz. A poor replacement for a true knight and loyal friend.

You know, the story is pretty similar to how a TTRPG campaign progresses. Each characters have backstory to be explored, there's death of a PC and a new character sheet with the same class albeit different stats, while everything happened within overarching plot. But the chance is pretty low and I don't think that's what happened at all. It's a fun thought tho

Great game. I would recommend actually not grinding out your additions until late game unless you feel you've stonewalled. I kind of wish Additions were more like Xenogear's Deathblows, which you could access at any time in combat. But like Deathblows, there was also not a lot of reason to use previous Additions unless you found you couldn't do a later one as reliably.

Yessssssss this my jam I can't wait

it's my favorite RPG on the PS1 but I didn't get a chance to play legend of legaia (other then the fun demo) or parasite eve so maybe my opinion would change after there is still an interesting RPG point and click hybrid that I have to finish sometime called Septerra Core on the PC fun premise and interesting story but the gameplay felt lacking after a while the card magic system was brilliant though with fusing cards to get different effects

Arguably my favorite game of all time. Deffinitly the one I've beaten the most. Don't think I've ever to this day legitimately fought Faust though...

This is still by far my favorite RPG released on the PS1. The story, characters, combat system, I just loved everything about it.
