It's nice to see that this game inspired so many that they still remember it 10+ games after. What a golden age for creativity.

Hope he makes more documentaries about other classic games like Dot Hack IMOQ - these titles really deserve remasters, remakes, or at least digital ports on new gaming devices.

This game was a cornerstone of my youth. Such memories.

The lore in this game is actually pretty interesting. Shame we will never get a sequel or a remake. Sony should licence it out to someone.

It's amazing to see this game still has a fan base.

A video dedicated to the very woman I'm named after? Yes please!💜

I absolutely love this game. Rose was my usual go-to party member with Kongal as the other. Her story is tragic, yet instrumental to the game. I would've loved to see a return of the world of Endiness and maybe see a new generation of Dragoons be born. Maybe take on Soa (the god who created the Divine Tree) in a bid for survival. As it stands, Rose's dragoon spirit is the only one to have never changed hosts, so another plot point would've been finding a worthy successor to her stone.

Miranda’s “favorite” party member and her name being a painful reminder of her own past. Rose is indeed one of my favorites from LOD and well developed. Rose literally had killed every incarnation of the moon child 101 times. That’s a lot of baby killing including the people influenced by the moon child. 😰

This game needs a full remake!

Thank you!

Thank you so much. Sincerely. Please keep the content coming. We love the legend. Never let it die

I got this game when it first came out. I still have my copy. Like LOK, I revisit it every few years.

I was waiting for this video after the Dragoon Campaing one, will enjoy this :)

Fantastic video as always. Thanks for highlighting this amazing classic.

I certainly wasn't expecting a lore video of The Legend of Dragoon. There's a LOT you can do videos on. Like the plot holes I'm aware of. For example, why was Shana and her late twin Louvia on that royal ship out at sea to begin with in another city anyway? Why was Queen Theresa not present with her daughter on this voyage? Who and where was the king, their father? Regarding the latter, the only hint we possibly get is the skull of a victim onboard the Ghost Ship in a cutscene. FUN FACT @8:30 for ya: That is the voice of actor Tony Todd (Candyman) you hear in these scenes as Minister Noish and Librarian Ute. Also I never noticed during that cutscene of Zieg fight Melbu Frahma, that his Dragoon Spirit was vanishing and reverted by to his normal attire. Couldn't really tell with the original PS1 quality. And as for you theorizing Claire Feld possibly being slayed by a Melbu-possessed Zieg would is very interesting. Would be a VERY dark and tragic moment. I never even considered that possibility. I, like many others, just assumed she died from Rose's assault on Neet but that's certainly a sinister likelihood.

I believe Princess Louvia and Shana were separated at birth; twins in Mille Seseau were considered an ill omen, so those attending the royal birth separated them and sent Shana away. Queen Theresa wasn't even aware she'd given birth to twins. I can't remember WHERE I found this lore, so don't take it as 100% truth. If I find where I discovered it I'll post an edit.

Time for more Dragoon Lore! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Please keep making LOD videos - it keeps the game alive for people like us 🙏🏽😭

Somebody out here posting stuff about my favorite game!!! Let’s go!

I've really been enjoying your content own this legendary jrpg and I was wondering if you could do an analysis on Lloyd in the future.

Absolutely. Lloyd was next on my list, actually.

Rose is so cool, i love this character design and her dragoon

As always thanks for such amazing and wholesome content. You never disappoint. Rose backstory was tragic but at the end she found peace and the man she loved.....

I just found this video and I’m already excited! You got a subscriber!

Now we need a video on the moon child herself. With the lore dropped here, does this mean Dart was just a thrall under her spell the entire time?

Rose remains in my top 3 favorite video game characters of all time.

I wonder if the other 107 moon children were either humans, gigantos, Winglies, minatos, merfolk, dark elves, gnomes, goblins, orcs, trolls and the other species born from the Divine Tree. Oh and if Rose didn’t sacrifice herself to slay Melbu Frahma, she could have married Zieg and been Dart’s step mom

I think any species on Endiness was fair game for the soul of the God of Destruction. So long as it had a body to assimilate, it likely didn't care.

@samflood5631

@@gjtrue I think the reason why the God of Destruction didn't use the Winglies as it's host is because the Winglies were the ones who separated it's soul and flesh in the first place. Why would the God of Destruction not want a Gigantos or Minatos as its host? Also, I want to know if Rose has been east of Endiness if a Moon Child is born in one of the countries in the Far East. Or she's been slaughtering every Moon Children in just the Kingdom of Tiberoa, the Kingdom of Basil, the Empire of Sandora, the City State of Funri, the City State of Lohan, the Rouge Tribe within Endiness?

​@@samflood5631Since Dragoons can fly so fast from the cutscenes, Rose probably traveled like a vagabond listening for rumors when the time was close. The Super Virage can manipulate whole towns so talk would travel like light,then she's x'ing everybody in that city to be safe.

@@samflood5631 No. The Super Virage "Is" the moon that never sets. All the virage that come out of it are the versions winglies created by the thousands, still weaker than dragons btw. The soul(moon child) forces anyone around it to protect it until it can go back to its body, The moon that never sets. We now know it would take Melbu instead of Shana as its soul in the end to make the abomination.

Ironic that Rose as the Black Monster, wiped out over 100 towns filled with people..right after spending years fighting for humanity as Dark Dragoon.👿

I love this game, and Rose was my favorite character. Glad to see you covering this in depth. With how well you've done with the Legacy of Kain series, I expect some great deep dives.

What Rose went through in her long extended life, gotta say the pain is unfathomable and she was pretty much an invincible killing machine. If Zieg wasn't possessed by Melbu and saw what Rose had become, oh boy.

God I want a rerelease of this game. Not even a remake just a remaster.

"If youve had thoughts about Rose" Dude. If only you knew

god danm what a trip.

I don't know why these videos were suddenly recommended to me, but damn if these weren't a blast from the past. I'd actually almost completely forogtten a good chunk of this game's lore.

0:02 what a way to be taken seriously

Unlike The Legacy of Kain and Medievil, both series that i played to death back in ps1 and 2. The Legend of the Dragoon is something that i regretfully never heard off. I liked the first video as well as this one and I'm looking forward to more, i will try out the game for myself of course when i found the time. I really like it's FF-esque atmosphere I'm getting. Plus, Rose is hot, she certainly dragoons my dragon hehe.

I think that rose meeting dart was a turning point in her life. all she had done was kill and kill. he showed her a different path that would absolve her of her duties. I wish the game ended a little differently though.

I'm so missed we haven't got a good reboot or sequel.

I think that dart made the right choice in letting rose go free when he found out the truth. he needed her and her expertise in retrieving shana from "emperor diaz." some people had criticized the game as being too forgiving but I think that in a life and death matter when your love ones became your enemies and your enemies became your friends you're bound to make hard choices.

I infer as well that the main reason she took on the job was because she and her friends fought so hard for a better future but she found out that there was a fate worse than being wiped out by the winglies.

This video was done really well. I enjoyed it very much

I always wondered how did Rose track the Moon Child? Somewhere in the world a baby needs to die, that’s so vague and she only screwed up once.

It cannot be!

i must push back on this idea that living forever would be mental anguish. you cannot know how it would feel to be immortal, so it's silly to assume you'd know how much mental anguish you'd be put through

Don't be dumb. Humans are not meant to exist forever as all things naturally decay. The mental strain alone of seeing the world change around you while you stay the same would be enough to drive most people insane

HA. Yes. The one thing that frustrated me is the reason why I ended calling this game “The Legend of Dragoon: The Game Where Your Super Power is Completely Useless Against Bosses” Don't get me wrong. I loved playing that game. Having to press buttons to counter, to counter counters, to get higher damage and more crits. But every freaking Boss in this game had power against your Dragoon power. Either a power that lowers the Dragon power so you could kill it, an Impenetrable Magic Shield, a Sacred Blade made specifically to slay dragons. And since the Dragoons are basically powered by the dragons themselves (I could be wrong, I played that game last before 2002, so 22 years ago), whatever hurts the dragon can hurt a Dragoon.

I always felt that Rose was more the protagonist of LoG than Dart.

Will you do a video based on the Ghost Ship portion of the game? Best part imo.

Moar Dragoon content plez

More Legacy Of Kain please!

honestly I wonder as well if claire had died by her husband's hands instead. I think we would know if her soul was found in mayfil.

What are you using to replay this game? The backgrounds look so crisp!

Dragoons and Suikoden 2 had better stories than all Final Fantasies.

Am I the only one who thought many of the dragons looked more like machines than dragons? And the Virage's resemblance to mechs is quite apparent. Not this any of this is a bad thing, just an obsevation.

Im in my thirties PLEASE somebody remake this game b4 i die PLEASE

Dart: "We are here to ask you about the Moon That Never Sets." Fester: "Oh! About the Moon That Never Sets! Wait here for a minute. Let me get some materials. You are interested in a weird matter. Of course, I cannot make judgements about other people. Please take a look at this. In astronomy, a Moon That Never Sets cannot exist." Dart: "Cannot exist?" Fester: "That's right. Stars travel the sky by catching the winds of time. But, this moon is not affected by time. It never moves, day or night. That's why it's called the Moon That Never Sets. After counting 108 years, when the Moon That Never Sets glows red, a moon child descends upon the earth to fill the world with holy bliss. A poem of war, telling the fate given by the Moon. However, what we really get is the spawning of destruction and fear, that is the Black Monster.

How can a like video 2000 times?

I remember there being a lot of hype surrounding this game prior to it's release. But when I got to playing it, I found the combat to be really underwhelming. I generally found the game to be pretty mid, but maybe that was just because no game can live up to its own hype.

@SamJulesGillians

Ай бұрын

It is mid if that, I’m not trying to throw shade. The story is decent, lore is cool. Combat is boring even with action buttons. You have a limiting item bag and can’t really use magic unless you’re a dragon. Really great concept but really behind in gameplay, considering how many great rpgs that are around in the PS1 era.

I love all your videos, but the IA art turned me off a little now...

Wth is this game
