The greatest game in history is locked behind a 10,000 dollar price point on Ebay

So? The Mona Lisa is locked behind a million dollar price tag. You don't have a right to own and experience everything.

Just checked, you can find copies for less than 50 bucks. What the fuck are you on about, faggot?

But I'm experiencing it right now for free.

>>715822964 (OP)
I was playing panzer dragoon orta for the first time yesterday. Is it a good one? I like the art design

>>715823150
Japanese only

regardless OP is an idiot, nobody buys discs to play old shit these days with ODEs, emulation and FPGAs available

>>715822964 (OP)
>the greatest game in history is locked behind learning Japanese and not being an EOP faggot that pays exorbitant prices for shitty localizations or alternatively just emulating it like a normal person
fixed

It's a gorgeous game. Shame it gets pretty dull to play by the time you hit disc 3 even with its short playtime.
Orta's the best game in the series even if it feels a bit tacked on storywise and in aesthetic. The boss positioning is a great callback to Saga's battle system.

The game is good but not that good...

>download the ROM
>it's hideous looking, boring, and plays like shit
total meme gaym
Panzer Dragoon was never good

Just emulate the game.

The game is definitely ugly. It's a very late Saturn game, too. It's no wonder the PS1 won so easily. Games like MGS1, Ape Escape, Crash 2/3 and Spyro mog the living shit out of the Saturn, it's not even funny.

summer is the worst

>>715823872
but emulating is illegal and wrong. i must buy a second hand copy at a 100000% markup

>>715823783
yes the exteriors are ugly and the gameplay isn't interesting. people like it for the atmosphere and they just imagine other qualities (probably some kind of bias because the game is expensive).

the saturn was long dead before the release of this game, and it's not representative of its library at all.

>>715823068
its way more than a million bro

Orta is great and gameplay wise the best, but rabid Saturn fans deride it because it has ACTUAL DETAIL instead of riding a dragon over a gigantic emptiness stretching into the horizon (which was a result of the Saturn not being able to do much 3d, so they made the landscape with the mode 7 chip and threw 2-3 enemies in there).

bump

It really isn't that good
Despite only being about 10 hours long it's still overly padded, the ending section especially was bad
The combat is a joke, the only interesting part is the world
I think people vastly overrate this because it's semi-obscure

>>715822964 (OP)
Nah, get a Saturn and an ODE like Fenrir Saroo, or Satiator. You're literally spoiled for choice with the Saturn. I guess a Fenrir lite is about to release and it's like $60. You get to play on real hardware, you get your cake and to eat it too.

Only thing that stood the test of time about Azel is the soundtrack.

>>715834138
I think we played a different game then. I thought PDS was great.

>>715834884
Yeah someone like YOU would

>>715822964 (OP)
I emulated it to completion circa 2007 using the SSF emulator. It ran perfectly.
Brilliant game and much more consistent than its contemporary FF7 which falls apart after midgar.

The only letdown in pacing in PDS is a certain dungeon that drags on a little too much around the 3/4 mark IIRC.
The soundtrack is absolutely incredible, Archipel has some piano renditions from the original composer and they're heartbreakingly good.

Orta is not very good. It misses the point.
The gold standard for the shootemup panzer dragoon games is Zwei.

>>715822964 (OP)
I remember i beat this in a rent-a-console place when i was 12 or something. It was night and the owner wanted to close up but i was on the final boss so he waited for me to beat the game for like 45 minutes.

Still remember that shit 25 years later
