Panzer Dragoon avaliable NOW ($24.99, Switch timed exclusive)
- Thread starter sibarraz
- Start date
Yes, through Limited Run Games. Pre-orders start tomorrow and last for four weeks.
LOL at the fan art in the end credits. Cute.
Normal was a bit easier than I remember, but still fun. Atmosphere is a different for sure but that is incredibly hard to recreate. All the menu and 2d art is lovely, and I'll be interested to try out the OG soundtrack when it releases. I hope so much that this does well enough for Zwei, if only to keep around interest in the series.

Pretty damn enjoyable with my hori split pad. I don't feel any of the magic that I did when it came out obviously but this is a really darn good remake. It's a total fucking tease though that really makes me want a Saga remake.
While it doesn't have the magic of the chunky 3D quads from the saturn days, I actually like the new art for what it is and am very interested to see Zwei and Saga in this style. Here's hoping we get more remakes -- I will easily buy every variant of these games multiple times. I already have it on my wishlist on Steam and intend to pick up the LRG release as well.
Well said, that's a perfect point of comparison. A lot of people dismiss the 32bit era but games like Silent Hill, the Panzer Dragoon series, Vagrant Story, NiGHTS and MGS have a timeless quality to their visuals that still look great on modern TVs with the right equipment and cables.
the update never fully fixed the controls, I can't get anywhere close to my records with the new loop controls. You're too sluggish in the NiGHTS remake.
But even ignoring the controls, like half of Christmas NiGHS is omitted in the remake.
Sounds like my experience from Gamescom. Seems like they weren't confident about the game themselves with the way they released it.
I just played the original game a few days ago on my Saturn and I didn't really enjoy it at all. Maybe because I have 0 nostalgia on this game.
Usually im the one not happy with "modern artstyle" variants, caus they miss some of the flair and feel (OoT 3D, to bright)
But here it seems im not the only one. Even John (GameXplain) made a video, and pointed things out i thought...
The watter, it diesnt "pop" in this dreamy way on level 1.

- the color, to warm,
- to much details, -Y distracting
- missing reflections in the water
- lack of 90ties cgi blue haze (draw distance), which removes a bit of the dream like atmosphere (at least in my dreams, things that are not in my attention "dissapear", and new stuff comes "from nowhere"...)
Its a small team, console exclusive, and nintendo was doing the promotion... i think the team just has enough to doo with patching up stuff with this, before releasing it on another platform that probably will need its own patch.
Is there any cheats in this version of the game? Like Level 0, Level Select, Invincibility, Secret Mode for beating Hard difficulty (x2 speed) etc?
Yeah I got that completely backwards. I am just so used to these types of releases defaulting to the new soundtrack and the original being an extra thing that I assumed that was the case here too. 2nd, 3rd time through things started sounding more familiar :P
Yeah, it's pretty weird for this game to be released without the remixed OST which was announced earlier this month.
Between this and the lack of gyro controls, it feels like a rushed release.
