A mashup I made of Tears and Sona Mi Areru ec Sancitu, both from Panzer Dragoon Saga. These two songs made up the primary part of the trailer for Panzer Dragoon Orta (my beloved) and I’ve finally recreated that song in good quality.

[Review] Panzer Dragoon Saga (Sat)
Tumblr media
Maybe they should have stuck to rail shooters...
My perfectly sensible journey through the Panzer Dragoon series: Mini, then Orta and the OG, then Gamera 2000, Remake, Zwei, and now finally this, the one that's not actually a rail shooter. Apparently development on Zwei and Saga both started at the same time but being an RPG spread over four Saturn discs, Saga took a few more years to cook. It's also one of the more pricey games in existence due to its release right when the Saturn was imploding and overall poor sales; its reputation as a rare and expensive title comes with a vaunted hidden gem status, but the reality... well...
Tumblr media
Saga (or as it's known in Japan, Azel: Panzer Dragoon RPG) certainly is experimental. Like the monsters that populate the world's wastelands and forests, it's a mutant creation, a strange hybrid of Panzer Dragoon mechanics in an RPG framework. Or if not mechanics then surface trappings: four-quadrant perspectives in battle, aiming a lock-on cursor, three-dimensional dragon flight... but the gameplay experience is nothing at all like the arcadey rail-shooters that constitute the rest of the series. Saga is very much a departure, and I don't think that works in its favour.
The world of Panzer Dragoon was always so evocative, the unknowable but hostile technology of a lost era (with its cool techno-organic designs) littering a devastated landscape, folk struggling to eke out an existence while empires battle overhead. Digging into the setting seems like something the series was crying out for... yet somehow, by nailing things down in Saga you do end up losing some of the mystique. Sure I understood the lore more clearly from in-game texts and characters pontificating, but is that what the series really needed? Maybe they explain too much, and since this is a Japanese RPG you of course end up travelling through space and time to kill God. Ho hum.
Tumblr media
Panzer Dragoon has always had cinematic moments, but again Saga goes to excess by having all dialogue be fully voiced, with mocapped cutscenes and long conversations. (The VA is all in Japanese as well, even in the international releases, with the series' trademark made-up language only used for the intro and outro cutscenes; another choice that removes a layer of mystery from this world.) It really slows the pace down, which is a theme for the on-foot sections, battle animations, and the speed of the overall plot.
After the inciting incident where Edge the bland protag-kun meets the dragon who befriends him for no reason, almost nothing happens to advance the plot for two whole discs. Although Edge is a defined character with a voice and backstory, he was designed to take a backseat to the eponymous Azel in story terms. Congratulations Team Andromeda, you created another boring RPG protagonist. Azel herself has potential to be interesting and has her moments but ends up underdeveloped, as often a plot device as a character, and literally not present for maybe half the game.
Tumblr media
Although four discs sounds big, each one has just a handful of areas, and there's only two and a half towns in the game world. As an RPG and a story the scale is relatively small which works just fine for Panzer Dragoon, and the inhabited areas you do explore are dense and lively, with a day/night cycle and lots of interaction with the blocky Saturn people who live there. Controlling Edge in these areas is kind of clunky and slow, with the lock-on cursor being an odd way to interact and observe the world, but it results in lots of flavour text for background details even if a lot of it feels like filler.
When on the dragon, the world is understandably scaled back. An overworld map takes you between discrete zones, which are usually big open spaces broken up by tight corridors, or dungeons absolutely riddled with repetitive hallways and lifts. The dragon movement mechanics seem impressive but feel ultimately shallow and limiting, the technology and dev realities clearly not fulfilling the ambitions of open-roaming dragon-flying exploration. There's only a couple of occasions like the assault on a flying warship or the stealthy infiltration of an Imperial facility where these sections actually approach compelling gameplay; most of the time it's just busywork flying around and locking onto things to interact with them.
Tumblr media
Finally, the battles. There are random and set encounters in the flying zones which take you to the battle screen, your dragon occupying one of four cardinal positions around the enemy. You or they can choose to move, which affects the ATB gauges that determine your actions but more importantly your relative positions put you in safe or danger zones from enemy attacks, and likewise enemy weak points are only revealed in certain spots. This positioning mechanic gives battles a unique feel, and turns most encounters into puzzle battles as you figure out how to respond to certain enemies. Your actions include the traditional PD single-target gun shot, a multi-target homing laser, and Zwei's Berserk technique is now the magic spell system. It's an amusing way to convert PD conventions into RPG ideas but it works well enough in theory. The problem is it felt to me that battles eventually became just slow and punishing until you learn the trick to them, at which point they're easy and time-wasting.
Tumblr media
Saga is full of little secrets and such, the sort that compelled me to follow a guide so I didn't miss any obscure sidequest or missable treasures. One interaction requires you to talk to an NPC twenty-six times for crying out loud! Many of these rewards are relatively inconsequential but if you want your dragon to reach its final form there's a few hoops to jump through. By the end I found my inventory full of unused items and unspent money, so maybe I was too thorough. I also followed the guide's advice to seek out rare enemies to grind levels on, which may have reduced the difficulty but I'd rather that than the tedium of getting destroyed in late-game battles and having to replay sections. Saga is old-school in that way but it is from 1998 after all.
Tumblr media
Panzer Dragoon Saga is such an unconventional RPG that I can't help but admire it, but at the same time it's clearly held back by the technology of the time and development pressures that result in it feeling messy and clumsy. There's no denying it has atmosphere and ideas and ambition, but it just didn't translate to the transcendent masterpiece that it's been built up as for me. Moreover, as a Panzer Dragoon game, it has almost nothing of what I really want out of a series that is otherwise stylish and inventive rail shooters. If telling a deeper story is what you want, then Orta was much more successful at it just by having a little more cutscene between levels! Even the rich world and visual design of the series is compromised rather than enhanced here as a result of the combination of gameplay styles/scales. I'm glad I played it but it's firmly the black sheep of the series as far as I'm concerned.

Does Azel, the deuteragonist of Panzer Dragoon Saga, have a Ryu number?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Azel has a Ryu Number of 4/3/does not have a Ryu Number.
(explanation below)
Yeah, it's a whole thing.
I've identified one point of crossover for Panzer Dragoon, which is the Dragon Canyon track for Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, which prominently features the series' iconic Blue Dragon.
Tumblr media
Now, which Blue Dragon that is, and if that's a meaningful question in the first place either way is an entirely different matter, and from what I've gleaned, it's muddy. (Something about a program responsible for all the dragons the protagonists ride?) I can state with confidence that I feel entirely unqualified to settle on an answer to those questions, so I will leave that to the Dragoonheads to litigate. Maybe they have thoughts about these theories of dragon identity.
At any rate, I've identified three possible answers with a corresponding Ryu Number to cover the spread, so take your pick:
The Blue Dragon as a form is not unique to the dragons the protagonists ride. Therefore, the Blue Dragon in Dragon Canyon is not uniquely identifiable, and Azel does not have a Ryu Number.
The Blue Dragon is the same dragon the protagonists ride throughout all Panzer Dragoon games. Therefore, the Blue Dragon in Dragon Canyon is the same dragon Edge rides in Saga, and Azel has a Ryu Number of 3.
The Blue Dragon is unique to the protagonists' dragons, but are not the same between games. (Excepting possibly Saga and Orta.) Therefore, the active presence of Shelcoof in Dragon Canyon identifies the Blue Dragon in question as Lagi from Zwei, and through the Guardian Dragon, Azel has a Ryu Number of 4.
(This is all assuming that Shelcoof itself does not qualify as a character on account of being a nonsentient(?) ship controlled(?) in some capacity by Sestren. If this is incorrect and Shelcoof could be considered a character in its own right, which is definitely possible, Azel's Ryu Number of 3 could instead go through Shelcoof via the ruins in Saga.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In conclusion: I dunno, take your pick.
On a (potentially) simpler note, Azel could have an Extended Ryu Number through the Worlds Unite Archie Comics crossover, which includes Keil/Kyle Fluge and Ryu. What that Extended Ryu Number would be is left as an exercise for the reader.

@admiral-craymen replied to your post “Please tell me everything you know about the Panzer Dragoon video game series.”
There is only one JRPG in the series. The rest are railshooters.
I don't know for sure, but I am inclined to believe you, since I know that Panzer Dragoon 1 is definitely a rail shooter, and Panzer Dragoon 2, Panzer Dragoon Saga, and Panzer Dragoon Orta (the last one I know about) were released for the PlayStation 2 and feature a lot of rails.

Panzer Dragoon Saga
Panzer Dragoon Saga, known in Japan as Azel: Panzer Dragoon RPG, is a 1998 role-playing video game (RPG) developed by Team Andromeda and published by Sega for the Sega Saturn. The third entry in the Panzer Dragoon series, it replaced the rail shooter gameplay of the previous games with RPG elements such as random encounters, semi-turn-based battles and free-roaming exploration. The player controls Edge, a young mercenary who rides a dragon and encounters a mysterious girl from a vanished civilization.
Sega felt an RPG was critical to compete against the PlayStation and Final Fantasy. Development began in early 1995 alongside Panzer Dragoon II Zwei, (released in 1996). The project was arduous and repeatedly delayed; incorporating the Panzer Dragoon shooting elements with full 3D computer graphics and voice acting, both unusual features in RPGs at the time, pushed the Saturn to its technical limits and strained team relations. Two staff members died during development, which the director, Yukio Futatsugi, attributed to stressful working conditions.
Panzer Dragoon Saga is one of the most acclaimed Saturn games and is often listed among the greatest video games, earning praise for its story, graphics, and combat. As Sega had shifted focus to its Dreamcast console, Saga had a limited release in the West, and worldwide sales were poor. The Andromeda artist Katsumi Yokota attributed the low sales to the creative spirit of the team, who were not interested in creating a mainstream product. Although it became a cult classic, Panzer Dragoon Saga has never been rereleased, and English copies sell for hundreds of US dollars. After its release, Sega disbanded Team Andromeda; several staff members joined Sega's Smilebit studio and developed a fourth Panzer Dragoon game, Panzer Dragoon Orta (2002), for the Xbox.

#Gamefemerides
Hace 21 años fue lanzado Panzer Dragoon Orta. Es un juego de disparos sobre rieles para el Xbox original, publicado por SEGA y desarrollado por el estudio Smilebit de la misma. Es la 4ta entrega principal de la serie Panzer Dragoon. Muchos de los desarrolladores formaron parte del extinto estudio Team Andromeda, que fue desmantelado luego del lanzamiento de la entrega anterior, Panzer Dragoon Saga (1998), en el Sega Saturn. La historia sigue a una adolescente, Orta, quien es rescatada de prisión por un misterioso dragón, y debe defenderse de la milicia de un imperio opresor.

I know you covered the Panzer Dragoon Remake a couple years back now, but have you played the original games? If so, what do you think of them? (I just beat Orta on the Xbox, which is a wicked good time, and it's made me curious to revisit the Saturn trilogy)
Playing the Remake is the most I've ever played a lot of these games. I never owned any of the original Panzer Dragoon games (I never saw them on shelves, and even when I did, I was just a broke kid).
And with emulation, that's often something where you "poke" at games but only ever maybe finish 0.5% of everything you touch. So I'd played Panzer Dragoon and Zwei, but never gave them my full, undivided attention, and never saw the credits roll. It's the difference between "testing out a Saturn emulator" and "sitting down to play Panzer Dragoon."
So, before Remake, I'd played maybe 30 minutes of either game. Now, since Remake, I've played the original Saturn version to completion (knowing how how short it is). Still haven't put much time in to Zwei, though. I streamed maybe 45 minutes or an hour to a friend on Discord earlier this year.
Never touched Saga. Never even looked at it. I don't want that to be a game I "poke at." When I play Panzer Dragoon Saga, I want it to be the sort of thing where I sit down and intend to finish it.
About a year, maybe two before Remake came out, a digital copy of Panzer Dragoon Orta was on sale on 360 for like $3, so I picked it up, and played an hour or two of it to contrast with Remake.
I think the thing about at least the first Panzer Dragoon game is that when you're only really sampling it, it feels incredibly simple. The game doesn't openly track score, there isn't dialog during play (like, say, Star Fox), and the game isn't especially difficult. So you're just kind of vibing and it's kind of boring. Like Rez, without the rhythm element.
I don't know if that ever really goes away, but I do know that Zwei is definitely more challenging and engaging, and Orta has all kinds of mechanics with switching dragon modes.
Anyway, I like it. I think I said this in my review for Panzer Dragoon Remake, but, I get the same vibe from that as I do, like, a Team Ico game. It's got that same kind of otherworldly melancholy of, like Ico, or The Last Guardian, or Shadow of the Colossus. It's not your typical fantasy world.
I still don't think the Forever Entertainment guys are very good at their remakes. House of the Dead was at least slightly more polished than Panzer Dragoon, but they still have kind of a sloppy, rough, devil-may-care attitude to how they handle these remakes. They've vowed to remake all of the Panzer Dragoon games, and frankly, I'm dreading what they'd do to Saga, assuming they ever get there.
