Dreamcast RPGs

[Bugrom1076]

Any good ones besides Skies of Arcadia? I'm looking for one along the lines of Shadowheart or Desgaea for PS2.

[Shibathedog]

their are TONS

 

Try Evolution, Evolution 2, Grandia 2, Shenmue, The Ring, TimeStalkers, PSO...the list goes on forever

[Cominus]

F&^$ all those, Legend of dragoon"Man hold up this game kicks azz" It's my most favorite rpg, i'd almost suck a "%$%" for a sequal..almost but not quite there.

[Rag]

I'd recommend Grandia 2 the most outta that list.

 

Then again, I haven't played many in that list either

[Shibathedog]

O_O crap i forgot Dragoon!!! That one rules!!!

[Rag]

Legend of Dragoon is on DC???

[Bugrom1076]

Yeah I thought that game is for Playstation 1 only.

[Mag]

Well I think that Grandia 2 is the second best reffered rpg for dreamcast, other than that.. I would also count Shenmue as a semi rpg game, as one of the top 3 rpg games as well next to Skies of Arcadia of course.

[Rag]

Shenmue is one of the best, unique games I've played

[BobRedthorp]

Shenmue is may fave game off all time, I wonder what the future is for the series?

[Shibathedog]

i dont know, i didnt like Shenmue 2 as much (but the free DVD that came with mine ruled)

[prnzokoshiro]

I've played through the first on DC and both the DC euro and Xbox version of part 2, and everytime I almost had tears, but... Yu will probably scrap the series because it's too high-budget and not nearly profitable enough. The care and attention to detail and the unique, disciplined, beautiful nature and story of this series will go to waste...

If you like Diablo style RPG's you could give Record of Lodoss War a try, it's a really cool game.

[Lightsier]

Haha, The Ring sucked, big time.

 

The only RPGs on Dreamcast that are worth playing are Record of Lodoss War, Skies of Arcadia (fav), Grandia 2, and both ShenMues. The others you can skip and wont be missing out on anything really.

 

Legend of Dragoon = PSX and wasn't that good of a game. All reviews pointed out the fact that it wanted to be Final Fantasy 7 soooo bad (it's was Sony's 1st party dev team trying to create an epic RPG). It was very true statment and is clearly evident as you play through it. It had the annoying combat system that was based upon getting bigger hits by timing when to push the attack button. No, it wasn't done cool like Super Mario RPG, it was rather annoying and got to you as the game progressed.

All FF7 did was talk about "summoning"(damn witches) "sucking D@$k" and "time travel"wait that was 8.........anyways legend of dragoon was evened out. They didnt fight guys that had machineguns with swords, or stupid big azz tanks with theirs fists, They fought dragons damn it, like they're supposed to. Plus everybodys story line some how tied to each other and most of them from the past. The combat system, i dont know about you, but i dont like falling asleep buring the battles, it wasnt the kind of game in which you just throw a game shark and beat t that way. You have to master the blocks, which you do if you play cose attention. another one they didnt play like cosplaying b#$%ches going to mardi gras, they wore armor and stuff like they were going to war, not trying to make a fashion statement. And the biggest one of all, they didnt have kid heads and run around with little bodies, they looked damn good(dart) "no gay pun intended" Well thats all i got to say about that cuz legend of dragoon said so!
