5/7/2023 0 Comments Blue dragon battle themeLike FFT, you control a number of characters (up to 16 at once) that each have their own powers and weaknesses. This of course goes great with the DS's touch screen format. I'm a fan for strategy games like Final Fantasy Tactics and say, Command and Conquer and that's exactly what game feels like, a mix of the two. That might not be good for "hard-core" RPG fans but goes well for Blue Dragon and for its platform on the DS. It took me about 18 hours to go through like I side but it did feel that the main plot goes by very fast. It still is a wonderful story that revolves much around the main antagonist, Nene and his connection to the cube the story takes place in. Don't expect any flash-backs, so there will be a story gap for those who haven't seen up to this point. If you are a fan of Blue Dragon or plan to watch the series (like me), the game will be a be of a spoiler.but its very well encased in its own, acting like a finale movie to the story. I'll admit, I've only seen the first episode of the anime in which the main character, Shu (looking of course like Goku to some degree) first gains his Shadow powers. Well, the story is set after the end of the anime, I believe. All-in-all a wonderful score and what you'd come to expect from Nobuo Uematsu. Not a bad thing but I can tell you I hear it right now a few hours later ^^. Most of the time though, you will have the basic battle theme which will be stuck in your for a while. The battle music might get a bit repetitive but there are a few different scores for the battles throughout your course. Need I say there's much similarity to the music in BDP to that of FFVII's music and that of his earlier FF titles. The instant you hear the music, you know its famed Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu behind it. Nevertheless, I had no real complaints about the animations here. Granted though, as an anime fan and Akira Toryama fan, I'd rather see hand drawn anime cut scenes (much like Chrono Trigger). The graphics are done well in the numerous CG cut scenes that litter the beginning and end of the game's story. 3-D graphic are mixed in during real game play when you or your enemies summon their shadows. As you can see from the screen shots I kept from my previous posts, the graphics looks much like that of say, Final Fantasy Tactics.which is very accurate to the game play and suitable since the game based off an anime. Took about 18 hours of game play to go through the main story line and I still have some touch-ups to do with side quests and other aspects of the game.ĭon't expect the DS to simply wow you with graphics since the machine isn't a PSP but 2-D pixel junkies like me love to see the graphics doing fin in this time in video game history. It's been some time since I've played an RPG on the DS and this one was well worth it. Alright, just finished through the awesome DS game, Blue Dragon Plus.
