Yes, this is an extended edition to my 3 hour review from last year. This review contains several elements that were cut for time last time around, some more controversial elements that I'm sure I'll regret talking about, some things that have come up since last time, and some things that commenters had brought up that needed to be addressed. I also fixed some minor mistakes and cleaned up the voice over. Was the length necessary? Yes, because I'd rather make a 4 hour review for something I love rather than eleven 20 minute reviews for games I don't care about.

I too have that same itch. This game was my introduction to video games (by my dad). We play it once a year together as a tradition. Started at age 4 and I'm turning 25 this May. Wow, how time flies.

[@Lrbearclaw]

My headcanon has always been that young Dart was found by Master Tasman who took him to Seles so the boy would be safe and to train him. This explains how his mentor knew Dart's mission to kill the Monster. If he knew it all along, he would have been able to prepare the boy for the dangerous mission.

I wanna make note of something, Which has always made me wounder about the Moon Child, originally the intended soul of the Moon Child was not meant to be Melbu Frahma, but rather Shana. Who is probably the gentlest and mind kind soul in the game. Which makes me wounder if the Moon Child was not necessarily destruction. Our main source of information about the Moon Child is also Melbu Frahma... who is far from reliable. It's possible the Moon Child was meant to judge the world, which could mean destruction, or some kind of enlightenment. Thus the source of the two prophecies , with Melbu and the Winglies actions pretty much making their version of the prophecy a inevitable one. Though it has been a while sense I played the game, so I could be forgetting something. Regardless, it's just a thought that occurs to me based on Shana's personality, I doubt it was the interpretation of the writers. There is an idea of a "Gentle Destroyer" in a lot of Japanese media...

About the housewife thing... Anyone who thinks being a housewife or being a "good housewife" is a bad thing, has obviously never been a housewife. Do you have any clue how hard that job is? It's not for the weak that's for sure. It's not for the dumb either. Here's a short list of just SOME of the things my wife does while I'm working 55-60 hours a week. Kids. All day. Hope I don't have to expand on that, it's self explanatory. Cleaning. Bills Shopping Organizing Budgeting Planning Cooking Meal plan Kids. I say it again cuz it's really an all day ordeal. Cleaning. I say it again because once again, with kids, it's an all day ordeal Snow removal Home repair. Sinks, water heater, stuff that can be done that are on the smaller side Appointments I know I'm forgetting at least a dozen more things. But this list doesn't even include her own basic needs. And before y'all get bent out of shape. Yes, of course I help her. If I'm not at work, I'm doing one or more of the things listed. My only point, is that housewife is not some pity job given to the weak or useless or something. It's seriously exhausting, and I could not do it. I could tryz and I have, but what my wife does is absolutely amazing and inspiring

[@TheJacklikesvideos]

i hope she sees this bro

[@JustinWebbMusic]

I've been playing this game on and off since its release. I remember the first exposure I had to this game was on a PSX demo disc and it left me completely hooked. I just stumbled across this review because I, too, just got that "itch randomly to play Legend of Dragoon again." Masterpiece, 100%.

[@megaton.settler]

So, I watched your original about a year ago. And then I saw this one pop up on the field because I haven’t watched one of your videos in a while. And I listen to the entire thing again, it was just as awesome as I remember. It took me a day or so as I listen to it in between drives. But it was really really amazing to have a unseen and on physical connection with someone who care just as deeply about a game that I care about. Honestly this game created not only my childhood bye my expectations for a future games with stories. And weird way this game kind of jaded me. I was so damn good, only Skyrim has even come remotely close to living up to how much fun iVe had. And I think my favorite part, is when you touched on the end, where the glass was on the desk next to Lavitz Portrait. I actually didn’t know that. It did not click in my brain. I have been in this game at least 20 times in my life, maybe more and I’ve been playing literally since it’s launch week. And I never do that, as soon as I heard you say that to be honest I cried a little bit and I had to pull over. Just so damn sweet, and spent so long not knowing such an amazing fact about my favorite game. So not only am I acting like a fruitcake about some bond with another human being I’ve never met, I just overly admired the amount of time you put into this, how it was very tasteful and the right amount of comedy with used. Sometimes it can be over done, that’s why I hate Marvel movies. So I want to say thank you, for making this, as it almost feels like he made it for me. I also want to congratulate you on how good and touching it was, and how hard you work. And I also want to say, please make more. Eh what the hell, we should totally hang. JK? We can listen to metal(I think blind guardian /boltthrower/ Sonata Arctica go well with this game) all day and play

Good job! Appreciate the time stamps as well, 11/10, have watched both of these!

[@BigDaddyBland87]

This game holds a special place for me as well. I always say this game turned from a casual young gamer into a hardcore gamer-for-life. I still go back every other year or so and play it again (probably at about 8-10 playthroughs at this point including earlier this year). I love almost everything about it and was my all time favorite game for a long time (only got passed up in the last couple years by Witcher 3). I live in a smallish town in a rural county. My younger brother and I discovered this game as a demo at Walmart in 2000 and I instantly fell in love with it. Got it that Christmas and became a life-long fan. The only downside was my brother and I were essentially the only ones in town who knew of the game. And for the longest time, I knew practically no other fans of the game. It's been nice to find other die-hard fans through videos like this, talking about their love for this game, warts and all. (Seriously though, I find it's quirky dialogue endearing but that 32 item limit can go straight to hell. That's my #1 fix for a remake.) This video perfectly encapsulated why I love this game. Thanks for making. I enjoyed it.

[@quarreneverett4767]

I looked earlier mmfans have a mod for to use with emulator that increased the limit

[@starlyghtdrifter66]

The item limit is meant for not rendering the defense/healing mechanic useless. It was a very purposeful choice. 32 is more than enough, I never have problems, but I sell items constantly too.

[@kirkmusprime2542]

Remake would be better graphics, same combat system, updated dialog, change of weapons, actual sidequests, 4 or 5 extra villages that may help the optional characters background, 50 item slots

[@grantprice9768]

Favorite game ever. Only issues I had with it: 1. Loading time! 2. The power balance is poorly done for human vs dragoon form. As you state, late in the game it’s often much worse to be a dragoon, either an item use option or change back to human would really help, but they should be dealing way more damage in dragoon form. 3. Shanas lack of additions

[@attinger117]

I will always cherish this game as it was the first game I really fell in love with when I was in Jr high early 2000s. As I've grown older, I have only continued to appreciate the story of this game more and more. I love this story, as it flows from simply rescuing your close friend, to fighting in a war, and escalates all the way to stopping the end of the world. And while end of the world scenarios have been done a hundred times over, this games story has a uniqueness to it in its art style and world building that really make it stand out to me.

[@jerryplummer6874]

I hope they do a remaster that would be amazing that way everyone can fall in love with this game and it can finally get the love it deserves

@@valor1omega I’m playing on ps4 now and the “rewind” feature really helps with learning additions, it’s also great for doing the pirate ship chest puzzle (just rewind if you input the wrong number and try again, free of punishment).

[@marloges]

Damn, that's commitment. Probably won't have the time to watch this one any time soon, but I'll definitely get around to it.

[@bluestarultor]

So to start, very good video! Well worth the watch! There are a couple items I want to address. You're not the first to not know how to pronounce Mille Seseau. While "seseau" is not a real French word, it follows French spelling rules and "mille" means "1000," so chances are it's "Meal Sess-oh." "Eau" means water, but it's probably coincidental since unless their intent was to call it "Thousand Their Water" and pronounce it "Meal Say-zoh." It would be a slop translation at best. Rose's Additions and weaponry are a little less innuendo-driven than her animations. People generally accept that she uses "fencing swords," but this isn't strictly true. Her weaponry, including the Demon Stiletto, are best recognized as mostly daggers and shortswords, except the Flamberge, which is a 2-handed sword, but far from the only "flame blade" or wavy blade in general worldwide, with others including a perhaps more appropriate kris. A stiletto is a hard, short blade that's neither a dagger nor knife, more like a nail with a handle, that was used for a coup de grace, or basically a mercy killing of a fallen knight by stabbing him in the eye through his helmet visor. Whip Smack, in keeping with her actual weapon model, and Hard Blade after, is most likely in reference to Chinese hard whips, which are more or less batons that use ridges or spheres for additional striking and blocking power. They're a totally awesome weapon that are criminally underrepresented in media, often adorned with dragon heads where the handle connects to the business end, which is totally appropriate for the game as well. While some of this may fall to translation for what her weapon qualifies as, the intent is to convey that she's using her weaponry as a striking weapon for that hit, even though her technique otherwise does focus heavily on piercing. That's all I've got, really. I never thought I'd sit through a darn near 4-hour video, but this was totally worth it!

[@HalfMonty11]

Thank you for making this. It's a beautiful love letter to a beautiful game. The effort and sheer amount of content you put into this is stunning.

[@garreonlefay6703]

Fun fact about Shana and her Dragoon Armor. Her armor is very different from Shirley and Miranda's who have similar armors and the same color scheme....but there is a story reason for that. Shana is cheating with her status as the Moon Child to wield the White-Silver Dragoon spirit, which is why her armor is so different and has aqua blue accents for the armor and her wings are aqua blue and sea green. It is also the reason why the White-Silver Dragoon Spirit jumps ship to Miranda so fast, because it never chose Shana, she unconsciously made the spirit work for her with her latent powers

[@jmilla321]

I 100 percent agree that a good way to remake LOD would be to do a combo game where you play as BOTH the current dragoons and the Dragon campaign dragoons. Being a HUGE fan of Legacy of Kain soul reaver, I would love for the quest lines to start very disconnected and for you to not even understand that you are playing in two different timelines. I always believed with a talented and creative writing staff you could make a double timeline game out of LOD be just as satisfying, if not more satisfying than the double timeline story telling of LoK SR

[@johnathancraig14]

You did this game justice in this review. Best LoD video on KZbin

[@DomtheDevilsRival]

Once again absolutely fantastic. I'm going to retread a bit on my comment from your previous version of the review and talk about how you and I have virtually the same passion for our respective games. For me, I feel almost exactly as you do with Castlevania: Symphony of the Night. The story, characters, graphics, music, gameplay, all the fidelity and finesse is there for me to enjoy. It's a game I love playing to 100% completion, going throughout every nook and cranny in Dracula's Castle and getting all the items and leveling up Alucard. The level of detail in the story, animations, graphics, etc always never cease to amaze me, and the intro even engages me every single time. Now compared to The Legend of Dragoon, Symphony I don't believe has nearly anywhere near as much depth as it obviously, BUT I still have the same love and passion for that game as you do with this. Every now and again I have an itch to play it from start to finish and still love it no matter how many times I play it. It's something I NEVER get tired of. And just like you, every time I read up on the game or play it once more, I'm always discovering new things whether it be items, details in the environment, and so on. The song that you had playing during your epilogue of the review even reminded me of "I Am the Wind" a little bit. Both games definitely have biblical themes tied to them, I mean Castlevania is all about demons and good versus evil so that's more of a no brainer. Bottom line, both have a strong passionate fanbase behind them and both were clearly made with care and love from their respective developers. Throughout watching this review, I started to feel an itch to finally try out The Legend of Dragoon. I am not a fan of RPG, especially JRPGs whatsoever, unless you count Pokemon, but I am intrigued enough to play this once and for all. Plus owning a four disc game would go great with my PS1 collection. You've outdone yourself again, keep up the good content, you are one of the only good youtubers left that seems to give a shit about what they provide and not consumed by the drama around them. God bless you, and your channel!

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this video. It, too has made me want to boot up LOD again on my PS5. I still remember how hype I was when we defeated Lloyd for good for the first time. I was so excited thinking not only would we get to then use the Divine Dragon Spirit, but also be able to experience Lloyd as a playable character in the party. 😩 It was still cool to see Dart use it though after the Fire Spirit returned to his father towards the end of the game. Also couldn’t agree more with how well this soundtrack was composed. The forbidden battle theme, #2 boss theme, and the major boss theme were hands down my favorite of all though. And Lloyd’s theme.

[@tcandrewtam228]

It would have been amazing if you had an addition menu in combat so you could select the one you want and that each addition had a type of advantage to use, for example element type, recharges mp etc. Btw Shana/Miranda’s dragoon was OP with ring that restored MP

Thank you for such an incredible review that does true justice to the greatness of this game.

[@JetZV]

I'm afraid I have to call you out on the Shana pronunciation; to pronounce it like you do, there would need to be a 'u' or 'w' after the first 'a.' The correct way to say Shana for this game is similar to how you pronounce chandelier; I've met people with this way of saying it so I know it's possible. And I know you showed the cutscene where Dart says it your way, but that is exclusive to the English dub; the Japanese version of Dart's line uses my version... sorta. The ENG translation for this game can be a bit scuffed at times, so I think it was just a misinterpretation by the VA. And that doesn't even take her Japanese name into consideration; when written out, her name is シェーナ, which sounds like Shayna. It's also pronounced this way by Zieg in that final scene and I can sometimes hear it in Dart's pronunciation too. EDIT: A detail about Shana's stats; her high Magic Attack is not just useful in her Dragoon form. The damage of magic items is partly based on the Magic Attack stat of the character that used it. With hers being so high, it's smart to have her be the only person that uses those items.

I remember the first time I played this game, I was stuck at Indels Castle in Bale for like 2 weeks. I mean, I was 7. Just cuz I couldn't see there was more stairs(on top of stairs you just came through) that you had to take to get to the throne room. There was a few more things like that, but that's the one that stuck with me the most.

[@jamesshepard3]

This is also my favorite game. I hope we get a remaster soon. I still have my ps1 discs, but it would be nice to play it without getting out my ps2. Such a perfect game.

I wasn't sure if I agreed with you on the phrasing you brought up around 2:56:10, but then I read "I'm glad to receive your fist, Master," and had to do a double-take.

[@monkeybear]

Damn glad you made this, it was a joy to listen! Thank you PS. Yep, on PS4 and PS5 you can now get the Legend of Dragoon, added trophies too

[@TinyWhisperWonders]

my first finish jrpg, collecting all the stardust and max out all additions, open every treasure boxes lul, what a journey loved it!

[@zacheryburgett1602]

To your point about losing addition timing at 24:00 I SWEAR the same thing happened to me as well, it’s as if the addition window gets shifted ever so slightly away from the feedback you’re getting on the squares on screen. It’s very difficult to explain without playing but I know exactly what you mean

[@udemeebong3242]

Deserves a remake

[@Daocpwnswow]

I need to scramble for my ps2 controller+adapter so I can fetch an emulator online and replay this game only to revisit the Praire shack! I loved this video

[@Mrnoobestreturns]

Talented over 3 hours content enough said don’t know any other video over 3 hours that’s fantastic

[@BzechuanInteractive]

Theres a guy who hated on persona 5 for about 5 hours.

[@Mrnoobestreturns]

Who is he

[@joeykornegay4587]

This game had no business having a soundtrack as good as it was but none of us fans are complaining. Battle soundtrack #2, Boss theme #2, “Reminiscence,” Forbidden Land Battle theme and the Major boss theme are my favorites 🙏🏾

[@silo7211]

I don't know if anyone has told you, but about the dragoon attack wheel, you got to tap x right before it hits the line to get the perfect bro.

Necessity is the mother of invention. A world with magic would either only need technology to fill roles that the magic can't be used for or to make up for some kind of scarcity of magic.

[@Vohtwomax]

I love how you came to your "optimal" team and it's Albert, Dart and Haschel. This is the team composition I have ALWAYS used. But I also grind out max lvl and max dragoon lvl. Small tip on the final boss, if you use your Special Dragoon transformation right off the bat, you usually get most of your turns before he nerfs dragons. Maybe have one turn left on all characters. I can usually get through P1 and P2 pretty easily and then smash additions after that. Easy peasy.

[@pharaohyami5000]

What's next? The Definitive Edition? If so, share your thoughts on the PAL and JP versions of Legend of Dragoon, if you have played those.

[@wild1dog1]

On the subject of additions, there is an option to turn off the button press requirement in exchange for half SP gain.

[@wild1dog1]

Never mind, it was an item. My bad…

[@mrwwwebs]

Just settling in for my annual replay of the game myself. The part about the itch needing scratched part really hit home. Gotta get my fix.

[@c.h.6669]

Amazing review to an amazing game.

[@alkimane]

i played the games through 3 times in a row just to test it with every charakter back in 2001 an to this day is my most favorite psx titel of all time thanks for the video realy brings me back

[@IMZ44]

Not a days goes by, I miss this game and wish for official comeback. I don't cry myself to sleep about it. Kinda.

[@ChrisMortJr.]

If I ever find myself reviewing this game I'm definitely going to be pronouncing it druhgoon

[@nogoofies5099]

Played it when it first came out on PS1 and even on PS5 I’m currently playing it again. Easily my favorite game ever🖤 an up to date remake would be a god send that would bring me eternal happiness

[@phoenixraven5692]

There's certain cheats you can use to remove party members btw. I did a play through of level 1 dragoon and level 5 additions with just Dart and Lavitz in the party

[@mistingwolf]

Absolutely love LoD's combat system! Albert's Flower/Blossom storm is my favorite addition.

[@phoneixmetallica]

This seems like it was a HUGE undertaking, but what a fantastic video this was. This is one of my favorite games of all time despite its flaws. Also, I loved the unforgiven III reference 🤘🤘🤘

[@carlrygwelski586]

I always wondered what it would be like to ride the canoe in Bale, or even better, Shirley's Shrine
