Blue Dragon Official thread

Ive been playing this the past two hours, and i gotta say the demo certainly didnt do it justice. This game is awesome, granted i usually hate being able to see your enemies and avoid them instead of random encounters, the way you can utilize that into created a Monster battle is awesome.
so far the story seems to feel alot better than the chunk we got in the demo.
my only gripe is WTF IS THEIR OBSESSION WITH POO? poo monsters...poo snakes...even after you kill a monster it leaves behind a golden pile of poo that you gotta rummage through to find some gold. WTH?
That and the freakin boss music, Its cool the first time...annoying any time after that. They should really have put in more than just that song for boss battles.
i wanted to punch the wall with how many times i heard it in the demo and only hoped it was only like that in the demo.

the class unlock system is pretty cool, havent messed with it much as im just gonna stick with the default classes for now. theres only like 4 or 5 equipment slots ive seen, and its just accessories.

Its got that good ol classic rpg feel to it with that spice of anime'.
This game is great and will go great with the nearly as addicting eternal sonata! ill post more as i get through it with thoughts on the game and NO spoilers.
BTW, the game is THREE DISCS. expect some huge game play time.

the demo was odd. But i think people have been crying for an upgraded RPG for a while. This games visuals are beautiful with the art style. Story and gameplay willing, i hope i fall in love with the final game.

After the demo I am willing to wait on this game until it is at the $30 range. Well that or until a person I know, whose opinion I value, tells me it really does rock. A trip to Blockbusters may be needed.

i just got past the ancient hospital area and its growing on me more and more.
I havent gotten much into the story yet as not much as been revealed besides the epic opening and the later revealing of the main bad guy.
there are chests EVERYWHERE you go, and just about everything you see is examineable and searchable, so you can find lots of items and gold if you just ran around examining for awhile.
The boss battle music still peeves me...it sounds like a washed up old man tryin to rock out, and it gets very redundant.

Well, the poo thing is funnier in Japan; and they used music just like it in the JP version.
lol Blue Dragon's gonna rock. I also see me being broke after getting a 100000 games by the end of next month......

I had to turn it off after the sixth or seventh battle (on the demo) - the music is like a min and a half long just looped over and over and over and over and over the boss fight could've taken me ten mins and I woulda heard the same shitty song 5 times more than I would've liked to. More thought should've gone into it, take out the lyrics, switch up the song, do SOMETHING to make it less redundant ><
