    Despite the hype, Legend of Dragoon is a soulless creature, a subpar game held aloft by deceptive marketing. Don't trust it.

I have quite the collection of Jrpgs between Snes, PS1 and PS2 and Legend of Dragoon is easily one of the worst I own. The story is pathetic (if you can call that a story), the characters are boring, the pace is just a corridor like FFXIII without anything else to do beside the main story (no sidequests) and the battle system is nothing more than an archaic turn based system even by Snes standards.

Few come close, but none can top the overall atmosphere and beauty this game has captured. The combat is amazing. Additions and dragoon transformations give the player a challenge while also being incredibly fun, addictive and interactive. The graphics for it being a Playstation 1 game are simply astounding! This is my personal favorite game and a must play for any RPG enthusiast.… Full Review »
