The dragon designs in this game are some of the coolest and most bizarre I've ever seen. Glad to see you've started this playthrough up!
I’m glad I finally be playing this!
This game is an all-time favorite. I played this when I was little and I hold it near to my ❤. I listen to this OST all the time on Spotify, especially when I need to concentrate to work and study
The music is so... Different in this game, and I love it! Most nostalgic game for me. I played this when it came out until the final boss. I tend to love the subjects in high school as well, but flunked out since I didn't do the tests. I have to get those final bosses on the games I've been playing! Finished the game recently in 2012.
It's different because it's mainly made by an occidental composer
@@SquallSZ Yeah kind of refreshing forn a JRPG.
Oh lord. . .that music is giving me flashbacks. When I was a kid I LOVED this game. I'd almost completely forgotten about it.
"Yes master, please". Well, I was not expecting that, my heart skipped a beat.
😅
Giggity
Oh damn. This game is a damn LEGEND (no pun intended)
😁
🌋
I loved your videos!
Always fun to see peoples reactions to the combat system and multi attack items
This was one of my favorite RPGs on a console from the late 90s. 😊
Just found this, it's my favorite game of all time, I'm glad you did a play through, bout to binge this playlist
I love this game so much. The music was awesome. The battle system's concept is simple but just hard enough bc of the timing... just amazing. Im only starting your lets play, but i hope you enjoyed it.
I searched for a Legend of Dragoon play-through so I could get the inner details of the game as a proxy crossover with the Yugioh TCG for a standalone proxy.
In other words, I'm creating my own custom Yugioh cards using this game's events, characters and inner-workings intended to be used in a standalone format.
I loved this game when I was younger, and it's stuck with me for a long time. I'm happy to relive it again through a fresh, new user experience. I'm looking forward to your play-through!
Glad you started this game. This was such a great game back when I first played it. I hope you enjoy it!
Hi April. Hope enjoy Legend of Dragoon. It's been about 8 years since I played and beat this game so I was a little late on this one. It's a great game. The music is one of the things that stand out in this as well as the characters.
Yeah the music is very distinctive. I don’t think I’ve heard anything else that really sounds like it.
I have such a soft spot for Legend of Dragoon. It’s not one I recommend to a casual jRPG fan, because it shows its age in tons and tons of ways, but damn there’s so much charming nonsense going on in it, and that part of the game only grows as you get deeper in.
Dart and Lavitz is one of the first times I remember friends telling me “I think they should kiss” and going “actually yeah I can see it”. That energy gets way more obvious later but the way they become instant friends is still great.
Oh I really like the aesthetics of old games like this
Awesome! I was hoping you would play this one. Have fun! We as viewers most certainly will 😊
Woo, this game is nostalgic. I played it a bunch. It didn't resonate with me quite as strongly as it did for some of my friends but it's a good time. Great music, I love the combo additions and Lavitz is our best boy. Interested to see how you get on with it. Keep being awesome!
I see my NUMBAH WAN game and I HAVE TO SUBSCRIBE!
😁
Oh my gosh, you are playing this game! I am so excited, this is one of my favorites of all time! I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.
This is stinking exciting thanks for picking this one!😊
This game is really great and memorable, I do indeed love our Fantasy Power Rangers game and all that...
...But man did this game age *weird*, and the dialogue will reflect that weirdness. As I always say, this game from mechanics to script to visuals and audio, it has aged like both milk and wine at the same time.
There really is no other RPG like it. It really is a bizarre, unique experience that I believe any RPG fan should experience at least once.
Edit: Also the cursors matter, dunno if chat mentions it at some point. You see, while running around you have a blue/yellow/red cursor to let you know when a random battle is coming. When fighting enemies, they have a blue/yellow/red cursor to signify how much health they have left.
It is quite something of how much graphics have evolved that I distinctly remember these graphics being incredible to me when I first played it. They still work but they are more amusing than good at this point.
I think some or most of the pre-rendered Backgrounds still look really great. The have a kind of artistic feel many modern graphics do not have. Also the Magic Effects in the game are quite good i think.
This was my childhood!
Nothing like old school ps1 era rpg's and this game definitely feels a lot like the ones i played growing up.
Visually it reminds me a lot of FF9.
I love watching ur first time playthroughs U always find a way to make me smile ("sha na na sha na na LOL) This is prob my fav RPG of all time Bought it at Game Stop and it came with a magazine with a full walkthrough 😮 I took it home dropped it in the ps1 and played for HOURS. long story short it took me 2 years to finish this game 😮 HAVE FUN playing. This game is def a diamond in the rough, A jewel on the crown ETC , im binge watching this playlist HAPPY GAMING 😊
Thanks!!!
Awesome! Missed watching your videos. Last couple games you were playing weren't my cup of tea. Seeing this pop up just made my winter 100x better. Can't wait to watch your journey with this game. It's unique and has its own charm to stand out from the other jrpgs of the time.
Glad to have you here for his one, Zac!
nostalgia great game. voice over genius. chiiiillllldddd hoooood. a wonderful rpg begin to end.
Came here from reddit. LoD is a favorite of mine. One of the main reasons I kept my old ps1 for so long. Completely crapped out on me not too long ago while replaying LoD though.
Oh. The outro music is from FF8. Nice. Another favorite.
Hey, thanks so much for checking this out!
@@bunnytails No problem. I always hope that any decent amount of attention will persuade Sony or whatever to remake or remaster LoD.
Regardless thanks for taking the time to play this classic.
Hey im back to actually watch this all the way through now and anyone who plays this game is f*cking awesome. So yeah i love this game.
My most favorite jrpg of all time. ❤
Missed the notification that you were uploading these to RUclips. This was the first Twitch stream I ever watched live!
Thank You! And I hope to see you in stream again sometime! Maybe tonight? 😁
A great classic indeed!
Tip from a blind player, if you listen to a recording of the additions, it’ll help get the timing of the button presses down. That’s how I do it and Lord knows I cannot see the screen. 22:02
when you said blind player, I didn't expect it to be literal. the voice cues are very helpful to getting the timing right.
@@RoseNZieg lol, believe it or not, the battle system is the easy part, navigating through towns is hard. Especially Lohan.
First time ever watching you and you're playing my all time favorite game. Your hooks are in me lol
😁
Believe me, Additions (the rythm minigame when you attack) are a bit difficult to get right at the beginning. But it is mostly practice, the more you do it the more you will get the timing of your Character's Additions.
Honestly, i hope you have a great time playing this gem
watch the square that goes around when its corner is pointing up hit the button and ur timing will be perfect all the time
Upvote this to let Bunny know important infos.
I'm a bit ahead with your stream. I'm at the part of Dragon Nest. I wanted to say a couple of things.
Yes, Shana doesn't have additions and is weak initially (that's made on purpose by developers, to represent how weak she is compared to more combat veteran guys like Dart Lavitz and Rose, and later as the story goes on and she gains combat experience she catches up with them).
Because in reality Shana is the second most OP character in the game lol :) though i get that she isn't as fun as others because of no additions. That being said, later on she gets something and with that she can then unlock a certain ultimate spell, which is super OP. I'm not saying you HAVE to use her, just saying that she is super strong if you know what to do with her. If later you're interested in exploring Shana's strengths, just let me know and i'll tell you in more detail what she is good for and what to do with her basically.
The second thing i wanted to say, that obviously you couldn't know/guess, is that after every step in the story, if you return back to previous locations, you'll witness new dialogues (with A LOT of extra Lore stuff to discover, if you're into Lore stuff that is) AND, the most important part, hidden dialogue scenes (not cutscenes like Shana destroying the Snake, but scripted scenes of dialogues).
What i mean with "every step in the story" is basically this: after talking to King Albert, before going to Hoax, you could have returned to Seles, where an interesting scene would occur (remember, Shana didn't return to Seles after the escape from Prison). After the event at Hoax you could talk to people in Hoax and they would react to what happened, you could also talk with people in Bale and they would say something new. By the way, if you want to see this scene in Seles, i think you are still "in time" to do it. As long as you don't finish disc 1 i think you can see the first scene with Shana in Seles.
Got it? ☺After every step, you can get a lot of new info lore wise. This game is so deep with the lore, the lively world and all these things. Also when you finish the first disc, i really advice you to return to the region of the first disc (where you're now) and revisit all the cities. Every single person will say something new, there will be a new scene in Seles involving Shana again (this is the second scene in Seles involving Shana) and a certain character in the last city of disc 1 will change his role in the city.
Really, there are so many of these small details, like the world keeps going even after your main events and even after you've left. And it's fun to know what happens to each city and to the NPCs.
Hopefully you read this before your next stream. 😊 Have fun and enjoy this wonderful game. I've beaten this game 11 times and it's my favorite ever, that's why i'm so passionate about it. 🤗
Thank you for the info. I may go back from time to time for dialogue but I don't like to backtrack too much. Also, I stopped reading the part where you were talking about Shana and her abilities in the future because I consider that a spoiler so hopefully we can refrain from talking about the future of the game. I would rather miss out on things than have my first playthrough spoiled or too heavily guided.
That being said, I can't wait to play more of this game! :)
@@bunnytails I was vague with Shana, because you didn't reach that part yet, but once you reach it i can comment here and tell you. It won't be spoiler-y i promise :)
Also, yeah i get you. It's fair to not like backtracking. I usually don't like it either. And also LoD unfortunately doesn't give a fast travel till way later. Though as i said, there are definitely some scenes worth backtracking for. So basically keep that in mind. :)
I can't wait to watch the next episode! :)
1:29:20 Fruegel is, ironically enough, not very frugal with the staffing budget. His employee churn rate has got to be expensive for the Empire to deal with.
This game is something where I always heard people had it on the pantheon for PSX RPGs and I had never actually seen it in action before you started streaming it. Impressed by the graphics for the era, especially the backgrounds, and every single thing on the OST freaking rips. Looking forward to continuing the journey along with you.
Me I Play That’s Games Long Time Ago When I Had PlayStation 2
There's a game series I think you may enjoy. Legend of Heroes by Nihon Falcom.
Someday 🙂
I love this game i remember playing it when i was 13 and could never pass the stepping stone puzzle to fight emperor diaz. When 18 i played it again and my ex girlfriend solved it pretty quickly. I had some beef with that game for awhile
Hey so try to master your additions before switching to next one you master them by doing them a certain amount of time
I beat the game 5 times old games like this have more emotions every time I picked it up I felt like I was really their
The fact that u didnt beat the game in 0.5 seconds gives me PHYSICAL PAIN
-Morgan Ellis
Nice i beaten this earlier which i never did before
If I remember correctly, Shana doesn't get additions.
The good thing about single button Additions (like Double Slash or Harpoon) is that they can't be counter attacked, and they are easy.
Hey so the cursor over enemies tells how close to death they are its blue then yellow then red i forget the percentage of health left for each color though
Childhood love of mine!
for me this is another blast from my past
Yes. Finally.
Edit: I beat the game in 2003. 😬
I am definitely having flashbacks also on how sensitive and frustrating the timing system was on this game.
It sure can be frustrating at times!
I don't know if you encountered the same thing I did, but I also feel it isn't helped by the fact that the time is different, not just between different 'additions' but also between characters, so it makes it rather hard to build up a rhythm for it.@@bunnytails
@@doorofnight87 Yes, that was definitely an issue at times.
@@bunnytails Glad it wasn't just me. I haven't played the game in probably about 20 years (oof, that hurts to type, I have no problems with saying I am 36, it is realizing just how long ago things were that break me) and those timing issues, along with absolutely loving the story, are the two things I remember most vividly. Frustration with the combat gameplay is a big part of the reason it took me several years of sporadic play to beat it. . .that and what I now realize was undiagnosed ADHD, but that is a different rant, lol.
I love this game I miss 😢it so much pluss hope you enjoy it ❤
Enjoy it? Well, you're gonna have to watch to find out! :D
So a pro tip is ignore extra enemies in trio boss fights focus on the main boss like Fruegel but this is great
Like if you focused on the Commander in the first boss fight the other 2 will *runaway*
Good to know!
Legend of Dragoon is so amazing!!! I remember getting it day 1, olayed it foreeeeevvver. Thwy ned to do a remake like they have been with Final Fantasy 7, or just a while new one
Please make a remake and prequel it so deserves it support the severed chains community
So glad the game is getting recognition still
YEY. Now I'm level 2. I just bought it
no idea what this is but always interested watching introductions to new games
I'm about a quarter of the way through by this point. It's neat!
Quess what April? Im gonna send you more money. Cause you are best youtuber, imo
You've got a very dirty mind, Bunny.😁
LETS GO
Esse jogo é lendário 😢😢
still waiting for a remake
VOLCANO
HARPOON
ASSASSIN'S COCK
🤣
this should be an interesting playthrough i love the old school style of this RPG and the graphics remind me a lot of the same style used in Xenogears, definitely something special about the JRPG and RPG games of the late 90's early 2000's
Haha yep! It’s really interesting so far! And you know how much I love my old school jrpgs!
@@bunnytails I love the new JRPG and RPG games but I agree there is definitely something awesome about the old school one's
1:32:02 so shana is actually a useless party member since she gets no additions at all throughout the game so once you get next team memeber put her in the back row
Only 2 good things are is she has high magic so she will do lots of damage with attack items
And second thing is her healing spells
Btw Bunny are you playing this on your PS3? PS1 games on PS3 suffer from input delay on modern displays. Additions may be a bit more difficult because of this. You'll get the timing down on the basic ones but don't worry if the more complex ones are a struggle.
You remember the sword fight mini game at the beginning of FF9? Its nearly impossible to get 100 out of 100 on the PS3 because of this delay.
I am playing this on PS5 actually. The timing does feel way off.
@@bunnytails I guess it would be the same for both PS3 and PS5 since the issue is the refresh rate of the TV/monitors? I honestly could just tell it felt off to you after the first few battles.
After I spent a few hours doing perfect attempts at that FF9 mini game and still not getting the perfect score I became acutely aware of this issue lol
Figured I'd let you know before you got frustrated or felt like you weren't doing good or something.
if u guard u can heal too
Wow, I loved this game as a kid. It came in like a big cd case with like 6 discs and I only got to the third cd. Good luck and thanks for playing a great nostalgic gem.
Hey so just to let u know u can only carry 32 items and things don’t stack so try to limit how many potions revives attack items and magic potions you have at a time
Kiitos!
Ei kestä! (is that right?)
@@bunnytails yes!!. How did you know?
I don't know why, I send you 10€ And automatically it says kiitos. It's make sense if you say kiitos and I say ( ei kestä ) or ( eipä mitään). I'm surprised that you say (ei kestä) how did you know that? I'm proud of you
@@judestinen666 I just used Google translate. I don't know any Finnish :(
I watched a youtuber who played it without paying attention to details and he spent too much time trying to find out where he's going. he barely explored the maps.
Ole hyvä
Thank you! I don't deserve it.
@bunnytails of course you deserve it. Don't say otherwise.
@@bunnytails I did send you 15€ more money to you. 25€ all the getter
I have never played this game. Seems boring. I hope this gets better. And I'm sorry I can't continue whatsing your rest of the yakuza playthrough cause I need to pause video on almost every dialog. Otherwise, I miss the dialogs. I can't enjoy it fully. You know I have trouble reading.
