WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE LEGEND OF DRAGOON

OH MY GOD

[Rico]

DQ7 goes down without winning a single round. Probably moist the only DQ outside of 2 that could manage that feat in a double elimination tournament.

I think DQ7 is underrated and have probably spent 200 hours playing it outside of when I was actually working on it, but I can't really be angry about that outcome. I really hope not necessarily having to pay for a cartridge run gets the remake localized.

Star Ocean and Dance Dance Revolution. The former for its reputation more than anything else, the latter for DUB-I-DUB

Additions were novel at the time and the whole thing is so incredibly cliche and unoriginal that there may almost have been comfortable slipping into something safe, familiar, and executed reasonably well.

6. Alundra [ 7 ]
1. Legend of Dragoon [ 3 ]
30. Dance Dance Revolution [ 11 ]
2. Star Ocean: The Second Story [ 6 ]

7. Breath of Fire 3

[Niku]

Tomba! and Resident Evil 2 definitely deserve better than the losers bracket.

Yeah, they were pretty shameless about ripping off FF7.

I think it was a sentiment we could really feel at the time.

Lunar and Puzzle Fighter 2, RISE FROM YOUR GWAVE

[kashan]

Going against my rule of not voting for games that I think of primarily as being for another system because the Puzzle Fighter 2 and L:SSSC are so much better.

[Brantly B.]

Musashi has some unfortunately really poopy bits that mar what's an otherwise fantastic journey.

[nosimpleway]

I played Musashi when it was new, and have replayed it exactly once since.

Why?

Steamwood is why.
