Top 10 Most Underrated Games
9) The Legend of Dragoon
The Legend of Dragoon is an old JRPG for the original PlayStation. It was a pretty classic RPG with 50+ hours of playtime spanning four discs. Back then having multiple discs was soon as a good thing, not a detriment. RPG fans might be surprised to see LoD on this list but keep in mind the game only got average review scores when it was released (it garnered a 74 aggregate review score on Metacritic). It should have scored way higher.
The Legend of Dragoon had an awesome plot, cool characters, and PlayStation-era cheesy voice acting during FMV cut-scenes. The game also introduced a “ring” system which required the player to press a button at the exact right moment to properly executive physical attack combos. More powerful attacks required more precise timing. This was pretty innovative for the time and it made combat much more interactive and skill-based. This system is also used in another game found later on the list.
Ask any old school JRPG fan what they think about The Legend of Dragoon and they will most likely agree this game is excellent.
Hello? Where's Psychonauts?
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness and Sky are all severely underrated; One of IGN's reviewers gave a poor review of the game which demoted the initiative to play the game, however why is it a fact that so many other people who have played this game, criticized the IGN reviewer and loved the game? It's because it's so good in every aspect.
PMD explorers of sky was the 2nd best pokemon game to me dude its super cool for me atleast
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky. The most underrated video game of all time, it's literally the best RPG I have ever play, for countless reasons. An underrated masterpiece.
Kay ham ahase game dounlod nahi kar sakte he.......
The SNES Shadowrun was better than the FPS Shadowrun. It was significantly closer to the tabletop game
I disliked that Adam Wake basically had a final boss about as difficult to deal with as the normal enemies. It was still a decent game, just the final boss was a real let down
Dragon's Dogma is terribly underrated. You literally can't trust the reviews, because most of them are made up. No fast travel, too hard, and nonsensical story are just some of the lies being told about it. I'll admit there are some flaws, and no multiplayer just doesn't make sense, because the foundation for it is there. However, it's still one of the best games I've played.
Unfortunately, Capcom made a jerk move by making Bitterblack Isle non - downloadable. The only way to purchase it is to buy the Dark Arisen addition, and that includes the original game. Then they advertised, "Includes the original Dragon's Dogma" on the box like it's a good thing. The game was being dished before Bitterblack Isle was announced, and this definitely didn't help. Also, Bitterblack Isle is worth buying (unless you already payed full price for the original). It adds much needed difficulty and some cool boss fights.
I heard a rumor about a sequel. I don't think it's possible, but I hope I'm wrong.
Just recently finished replaying LoD. Nostalgia plays a big aspect into this game. Looking back it was fantastic, now its somewhat painful to play. It was a product of its time and like many other games it did not age well while still others did.
LoD is a best RPG besides FF. every RPG fan will loved it
Lost Odyssey is a truly amazing game. One I've played and replayed numerous times. Has a great story with characters who are engaging and believable. The Thousand Years of Dreams gives good insight into the memories of Kaim and each story is amazingly well written.
LoD!! AMAZING Game!
Lost Odyssey is the most mature JRPG in terms of story..i think i will go back play the game again
Legend of the Dragoon was my FAVORITE game (besides Jet Moto and Twisted Metal 2) for PS1. Challenging, tons of side quests, great soundtrack, great gear, superb plot line, unforgettable boss battles. Loved it through and through. Im glad you're giving it the respect it deserves. Thank you.
Shadowrun was a great game
