people always mention the first game but not the second. the second has an english patch you can apply to the iso.

I still have not beat the first one. The translation patch for 2 is pretty good though. I tested it out and did one battle.

Bumping because Dragon Force was my favourite Saturn game. The sequel looks a bit shit, is it?

I played it through, I cant even remember which monarch I used. Seemed a lot shorter and easier than the first, both need a hard mode patch. Theres an save editor for the first game I tried to make one with but all I could was boost levels of shit which doesnt fix the shit ai.

the 1st one is better in my opinion. the 2nd one also had shittier music. i pay attention to that

I've played the 2nd game with 2 characters.

Honestly, I think it's behind the original game in several aspects - the continuity doesn't make any sense, the music/art took a hit and commanders seem to have way too much HP which makes killing them a pain and almost negates the improvement of being able to field 2 different types of units at once.

I can sort of see why they didn't bother to give it a PS2 rerelease.

I can never get past the part in the first one when those soldiers that never die start coming from that one castle. You kill them and next round they come back again.

It's pretty much shittier in every way except some graphical upgrades real shame.

I think I just got tired of fights every few minutes that I was not very invested in. And if you take over the castle they just keep coming from somewhere else to attack the castle.

I might try it again, I did like the cave guy leader with the club.

Yeah the first got rereleased on a more popular system while the sequel was Saturn only. Also I the additional factor of a Working Designs translation helped the first become much more popular. I do think the mix and matching of unit/troop types is a necessary addition of depth.
