Dragoon:
Thus concludes a great, fun, and engaging RPG, which in many ways merges gameplay elements from both Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia into a much more refined system. The sprites are noticeably a little less detailed than Illusion of Gaia's; however, I think they actually work better now due in part to the potential game overloads in towns (which has a lot of NPC's) if the sprites had the same amount of details or more imbued with each NPC. The monster sprites are spectacular, as are the graphics; which feel much more smoother and natural than its predecessors. Most of the music is excellent and quite memorable. One good improvement was the story, the narrative, and the dialogue (with a few minor grammatical errors, leaving me to believe the translators were probably half asleep when they were doing it).

The only annoyances I found was the weapon inventory system; it should be enlarged to facilitate more than 12 weapons because during the course of he adventure Ark finds more weapons than actual armor, it would've been more convenient to have more space like the ITEMS room to store more. In addition, some of the special weapons are next to useless in actual battles whereas some normal weapons like the Roc Spear are not considered special, but at the same time, can never be discarded. Armor can also benefit from some more space, although armor is less likely to overload as easily. Tight rope mechanics should be re-adjusted because they are simply just AWFUL. Oh and I almost forgot... MAKE THE DAMN LOST DESERT TRAVERSAL SHORTER!!! Seriously, that time consuming piece of crap of an obstacle is unnecessary, they could've made it so that crossing it successfully once is enough to allow you to pass through it normally without EVER needing to re-enter the damn place; there is literally NO BENEFIT of returning there, heck they should've instead kept the zombies alive in Louran. Only to knit-pick, but the game company wiping themselves out is still something that bothers me. Doesn't even enter a playful sense like whenever the Simpsons poke fun at the Fox Network.

*Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoyed my playthrough, as well the playthroughs of Soul Blazer and Illusion of Gaia*
