Blue dragon is brilliant! it has great music, great graphics, and gameplay that does a wonderful job of feeling both familiar and fresh at the same time. blue dragon has a colorful cast of characters, each with their own unique personality. the artwork by Akira Toriyama is wonderful and when combined with the great music in the game done by Nobuo Uematsu really makes the world of blue dragon that much more interesting to explore. the battle system may be turn based but it's part of what makes blue dragon feel familiar and fresh at the same time. unlike other role playing games you don't need to waste money on buying new weapons each time you get to a new town, because your weapons are your shadows. the shadows can be one out of nine different classes that level up with the more shadow points you get. of course the fun part of the class system is that as your class rank increases you gain new abilities and then switch to a different class and equip the abilities you gained from any other class. therefore a black magic user could also use white magic or even support magic all at the same time. plus some of the skills you learn as your class rank increases can be used on the field. another fun thing about blue dragon is that it has no random battles at all. overall blue dragon is a wonderful game that will make you want to play it long after you've finished it and even though it's not bringing anything new to the table it does a pretty good job of standing up to blue dragon creator Hironobu Sakaguchi's most notable creation, final fantasy.
