Game Rant Writes "The Legend of Dragoon is available on modern consoles for the first time since 2014, though fans are still clamoring for a full-blown remake."
The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.
The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
For some gamers, The Legend of Dragoon is, hands down, the best RPG ever. Isn't it time for a remake or reboot and not just a port?
It never will. The game may have been good, but it was just average at best. The kind of game that is one and done.
Story was good combat was better than ffvii. Game deserves a REMAKE not a remaster
It was anything but average! The story and characters were highly captivating, the gameplay was enjoyable, and the world was interesting. Fans have been requesting a remake for quite some time. I revisited the game last year and found myself completely immersed in it once again. The PS1 had numerous beautiful classic JRPGs that truly deserve remakes.
I'm happy with the PS Classics port, but if they did, I'd like a port/remaster of Legend of Legaia as well (please put that on PSN).
I was just going to say legend of legaia REALLY needs to get the remake. Also keep the combat the same, and the OST. Legend of legaia a truly a gem. I still have my original ps1 game, mint condition.
I wish I still had my disc, I really enjoyed that game as a kid, but then the disc disappeared (I'm normally pretty good with my games, so it's strange that it's the only game I've ever lost), I have Legaia 2 still, but it's not as good as the first game, unfortunately. It's surprising the first has never been on PSN when Sony owns the license for the game, they seem content to sit on it and do nothing with it.
A team of modders has been working on an unofficial PC port of the 32-bit Playstation JRPG, The Legend of Dragoon.
If Square Enix can remake FF7, then why not Sony?
Remake these classics, Sony ... not recent games like Until Dawn
lets see ... Bluepoint's remakes are great ...but not total reworks like RE2 or FF7
but pretty sure they can come up with a good Remake of Legend of Dragoon
to be fair it's a good game, not a great one. I recently played in on PS5. combat becomes stale after doing the same button skills again and again. I think they will have to overhaul combat like FF VII remake then it will shine. Story was good though!
Cory Barlog literally said his dream project would be remaking The Legend of Dragoon. If I remember correctly, he's actually pitched it before but Sony refused to greenlight it.
Damn
I recall Barlog also expressed interest in remaking Silent Hill 1 once ...
Crazy square doesn't do this kind of thing themselves with all their classics. I'd throw lots of money. Thank God we have such great communities as they're always the ones that properly remaster these games.
Porting means rewriting a game's code to run natively on another platform. Many think LoD's release on PS4/5 is a port, but it's actually running on an emulator. Roms are the "game" itself. Both emulators and PC ports use these roms to load the game. The difference? Emulators imitate original hardware, with many of their limitations still in place. It's why some types of modding are difficult or unfeasible. With a native PC port, modding is way easier and the core game runs much more efficiently.
Leaving money on the table is debatable imo. Will the casuals invest their time. I dont think it will show much of anything. People like us on the internet showing are excitement arent in huge numbers all like that hardcore gamers arent the majority. I feel if it has enough downloads and sales from those not on plus that that will determine if a remake is feasible and possibly worth the cost to develop it. Personally id love to see this remade. Get rid of the button timing battle mechanic and the limit on inventory it would be even better.
I was never a fan of this game personally. It didn't seem like a traditional RPG, rather a timing game to make sure you hit the buttons at the right time. I prefer strategy over rhythm style games, but to each their own.
The writing can get pretty unbearable. They really should’ve put effort into that, it takes away a lot from the game by making characters look dumb or pathetic. That and maybe as I’ve gotten older I expect a little more…
FFVII Remake, with all of its name recognition and the other resources and muscles behind it, it could not muster the same impact of the original and had to come in pieces to manage the cost vs revenue. What's LoD compared to it? I'm not dismissing the game, but from a modern business point of view, a remake will never be green lit for a niche title with such a scope and scale.
We are in an age where corporates are so extensively and exhaustingly busy controlling and calculating, it's smothering freedom and creativity.
Damn skippy! But I’m just glad we got trophy support at least. Loving this game so much!
