This game at times really was just unplayable and obnoxious, but overall, I think i kinda liked it .

Its a wierd succsessor to Panzer Dragoon that tried to tie in RPG elements with a multiplayer focus, but what you have is 4 hours of gameplay stretched across repeated levels and busywork.
The multiplayer elements also break the difficulty entirely when you can hire a max lvl dragon to aid you , and after the campaing is done, all youre left with is score-chasing and medals. These were honestly not bad incentives to dick around with the mostly allright on-rails shooting.

Presentation-wise its also pretty terrible but the art design and music are actually great and can at times transport you to this alien world.

I think for most people this really is just unsalvagble, but its one of those undercooked games that compell me through mechanical identity and aesthetics that arent too common to find.
Truly an interesting relic of the 8th gen and god I couldnt imagine playing this day one and not feel ripped off.
