As much as I’d love and want a remake to my favorite RPGs, I don’t want to play all my favorite rpgs as button mashing hack n’ slashes with menus. I’ll pass unless they actually keep it turned based. Turn based can be done right and awesome. Look at rpgs like legend of legaia, or lost odyssey.

Elda816d ago (Edited 816d ago )

Just know if they were to remake it from the ground up don't complain knowing the battle system will not be the same.

jznrpg815d ago

I’d prefer turn based maybe with some updates but I would take anything at this point .

CrimsonWing69815d ago

Yea, I’m with you.

Although I wish these devs/publishers would stop treating turn-based as archaic design and instead treat it like a sub-genre.

I was bummed when I saw Dragon Quest was starting to go the action route with Treasures…

Adrian_v01815d ago

Some sort of cinematic turn based system would be ideal for this

Lore816d ago

PREACH.

That FFVII REMAKE treatment

shinoff2183816d ago

No please don't do that to legend of dragoon. Leave it as is if redone

Lore815d ago

I essentially meant that they would need to tweak and evolve the combat, story should be untouched

jznrpg815d ago (Edited 815d ago )

If that was the only way they would make it happen I’d say ok as it done well but I would be much happier keeping at least some of these turn based games turn based .

"I essentially meant that they would need to tweak and evolve the combat, story should be untouched"

So tweak the combat but everything else exactly NOT like they did with the FFVII Remake.

porkChop816d ago

I remember after GoW 2018 came out that Cory Barlog said remaking TLoD would be his dream project. He didn't seem optimistic about Sony letting him do it though.

Scissorman82815d ago

Bluepoint has also showed a lot of interest in remaking TLoD as well. :)

GoodGuy09816d ago

Yessir. A remake with much needed QOL improvements. And please keep it turn based, the random encounters can go though.

shinoff2183816d ago

Gotta be turned based. I feel they'd pull a square to attract the younger audience though and make it hack n slash

Scissorman82815d ago

It could work a lot like FF7R - a hybrid of both real-time and turn-based combat. The combo-stringing with timed button presses would be interesting to see with a more modern approach.

Terranigma, many missed out on this game.

jznrpg61d ago

Vagrant Story, Xenogears, Koudelka and Shadow Hearts just to name a few.

indifference8460d ago

I would even settle for these games being brought to modern consoles.

Personally, I prefer to buy all the "remasters" of classic games on Switch so I can play them @work and on the bus.

I haven't played Parasite Eve since the 90's and I'd love to again!

The Legend of Dragoon Gets a Surprise PS5 Patch That Fixes a Lot of Issues

Sony has rolled out The Legend of Dragoon update 1.000.004, which is a surprise patch for the RPG, and this manages to fix multiple issues.

repsahj92d ago

We need a total remake of this game ASAP!

Travesty92d ago (Edited 92d ago )

With all these live service games that are really just a big gamble. Either they are positively accepted or really bad and ignored.
Sony has so many titles that no one ever heard of unless you’ve been a gamer since the 90’s.. Legend of Dragoon was quite the game. I know the turn based rpg is not as mainstream anymore but if they could just find the right team or hire the right people to remake it. It would be great.

victorMaje92d ago

Some young gamers just don’t realize the great games they should be asking for…
