Help me out. Is this the original copy of the game or a re-release/re-print. I think I first played the game after renting it from Hollywood Video and bought this copy immediately.

Anyone rocking both NTSC copies? I’ve got the green label from my childhood and picked up a near mint black label a few years back to display.

What are your elf theories?

So theory time. Do you think elves like the dark elf are a different species or some form of mutated wingly. They seam to have the ability to cast magic inherently and have blond hair so that would lead one to believe they are a type of wingly. But they could also just be another specie, there is a large gap between gigantos and humans. Same goes for orks they seam to be intelligent humanoids who have crafted weapons.

Disc 4 of my team Lock Playthrough

Already final quarter of the game of my team lock run of this year Shana and Rose

Lloyd was pretty easy I tried it a little bit because I forgot to restock an items but that's on me. I grab the soul eater sword although I don't think I'm going to be using it that much. And so far it's been pretty easy I'm only worried about two bosses in Disc 4 the final boss and the 50 stardust boss.

And another playthrough where I fail to see where Rose falls off cause she's still dealing about 1000 per demon's dance which is close to what Shana is doing what white silver Dragon attack which on average deals between 1100 to 2000 depending on the enemy.

However I get the feeling that that's going to change as I go through disc 4 but I will see but so far Rose has not fallen very much in terms of power.

Rose's head or rose's headband

Ok are the sort of spikes on rose's head horns if so does that mean she is like a human subspecies that has horns because she had them during the course of the game yes it could be her headband (but if it is horns it would be normal to assume that it is her headband for other people in game who are wondering)but I like the idea of her being a subspecies of humans from the dragon campaign that would explain why nobody else looks like her.

Is there a text version of LoD's story?

Hello,

I'm looking for a long-form write up of Legend of Dragoon's story; not a short summary. I want to print it out and send it to someone that doesn't have access to the internet. Reading it will be our way of celebrating LoD's 25th anniversary.

I first looked on the Fandom Wiki, but found that the final chapter wasn't finished. I then found a plot analysis on GameFAQs, but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for. The grammar left me wanting, too.

If there's nothing else out there, I'll likely send the incomplete version from Fandom; I copied, pasted, and formatted it into a decent PDF. Link below for anyone interested.

PDF Link:

RPG elements you would add from other RPG's?

Hey guys, just wondering if y'all ever wondered what The Legend of Dragoon would look like if you added other RPG strategies/elements to it.

For example:

In Golden Sun: The Lost Age, you start out with a party of 4 members and as you reach the endgame, you suddenly add 4 other party members for a total of (8). You can only choose 4 for a main battle, but if any of them die, they instantly get replaced by another surviving party member in your roster.

Obviously, this could make the game easier, or vice-versa, some bosses could start dishing out more damage to balance it out since you effectively have (8) party members participating in battle. Not to mention other RPG balancing that would need to be done.

I always thought it would be so fitting to fight melbu frahma and go all out till the "last man."

Something I would also add to TLOD which is common in other rpg's would just be to add more enemies that can appear in regular battles. Something like 6-8. I love practicing additions, and sometimes it sucks that after the loooong intro, a random battle lasts less than a minute. Also, killing 2-3 enemies with dragoon magic never felt too satisfying, but wiping out 6-8+? Gimme that

Anyways, just excited to hear y'alls thoughts :)

Best way to play?

So I've probably played LoD 3 or 4 times. Once on my OG play through and then a few times after that on an emulator.

I'll be honest, emulator is really nice because turning up the speed when you run around is great.

Are there any other options? Where's my remake?

Moon Child theory

So I have recently replayed the game(don't ask how many times I beaten it), and had the following theory pop into my head. What if the only reason everybody joins and Dart is in love with Shana is because of the moon child and its effect on people? In the game you find out Rose kills the entire village of the moon child due to it having some sort of magic mind control power(supposedly?), so is it possible that Dart and Co. join Shana due to the mind control effect?

Ever since my first time playing The Legend of Dragoon as a kid, I've noticed that wind magic is often green in JRPGs and anime. Over 20 years later, I finally decided to explore why, which took me down a deep Japanese mythology rabbit hole! I thought you guys might appreciate this.

Summary of the main antagonist

Replayed the game after a long time and realized this about the last boss.

He's a dictator who was thought to be dead, who possessed a dragon warrior, who was thought to be dead (twice), who was impersonating an emperor, who was thought to be dead

I did a Voice Acting project of this game for my birthday

Legend of Dragoon | Condensed Voice Acted Story - YouTube

In the description are links to the longplay (no commentary) and a commentary version. I'm curious what my fellow Legend of Dragoon fans think of this xD It took a lot of work

Finished my first playthrough using Kongol

Just casual conversation.

I've played this game once a year since I got it 2000. Every time I've played I've avoided our friendly neighborhood Giganto, for the reasons this community well knows. His speed is the worst, and his magic defense makes him a liability in disc4. This playthrough i finally bit the bullet and gave him a spin.

I re-fought Drake 8 times to get the Bandit's Ring, as that was my bare minimum requirement to enjoy the playthrough. And you know what? He's alright. He does chunky damage with simple, quick additions, and has HP for days. I grinded as I usually do and ended up putting a Legend Casque on him, and never took it off.

Funny enough my other party member, Meru, ended up being more of a liability by getting run over by high damage physical attacks. In the Melbu Frahma fight he almost one-shot her in phase4, giving me a mild heart attack given my low healing items at the time.

In any case, Kongol does need a lot of help. Equipment that shore up his weaknesses are definitely better put to use on people who already have good strengths. However, I will say he makes for a more chill playthrough since you don't have to work so hard on his additions. Would recommend for a casual experience.

Side Quests Disk 4

Hello, I'm looking for a non-spoiler (as much as possible) list of optional quests on Disk 4.

I always like to do as much content as possible, as early as I can, but trying to Google what is and isn't accessible at certain points leads me to story spoilers which I generally try to avoid. I just got to the point in Act 4 where I have fast travel (Coolon). As soon as I unlocked this I went and did the 4 Dragoon souls, and Faust.

Is there any other optional content (that is still accessible) I'm missing at this point? I want to do as much as I can before I hit the "final stretch" fully.
