The channel soars on the back of the Patrons! - https://patreon.com/IFinishedAVideoGame What causes video games to be remembered? Why do Final Fantasy, Resident Evil and the Legend of Zelda live on while others fade into the background? Today we're going to be exploring one of the forgotten - Panzer Dragoon. It's a series that not only deserves to be remembered for it's innovations and creativity, but also tells the story of Sega's downfall from console giant to struggling publisher. We're going to follow both from birth to death and discover what ties Nausicaa, the Dreamcast, Final Fantasy 7 and Star Fox 64 into a tragic story of noble failure. It's part critique, part retrospective, part review and part history lesson - obviously full of spoilers and obviously full of my opinions. === Credit for the incredible thumbnail goes to the immensely talented - @MicahTheBrave VDP Split footage was created by the incredible Digital Foundry who have an amazing video about the first two games use the Saturn hardware (highly recommend watching) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GQTv4jdUdo All media in this video is used for the purpose of review, commentary or criticism and is defined as fair use under US Copyright law. === Chapters === 00:00:00 – The Question (Introduction) 00:02:51 - The Sega Saturn (A Tragic Genesis) 00:12:41 – Panzer Dragoon (Development) 00:20:17 – Panzer Dragoon (The Video Game) 00:33:39 – Panzer Dragoon (The Experience) 00:48:29 – Panzer Dragoon Zwei (Development) 00:54:35 – Panzer Dragoon Zwei (The Prequel) 01:07:51 – Panzer Dragoon Zwei (Evolution) 01:20:28 – Panzer Dragoon Mini 01:29:49 – Panzer Dragoon Anime 01:42:32 - Panzer Dragoon Saga (Development) 01:50:36 - Panzer Dragoon Saga (Foundations) 01:58:54 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (Breath of Fire) 02:08:42 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (House of the Dragon) 02:19:24 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (Side Quests) 02:26:38 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (Four Disc Finale) 02:40:43 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (Divine Twist) 02:51:38 – Panzer Dragoon Saga (What Happened?) 02:59:39 – Sega at 2000 (A Dream of Spring) 03:06:40 – Panzer Dragoon Orta (Development) 03:12:58 – Panzer Dragoon Orta – Rebirth (Gameplay) 03:27:04 – Panzer Dragoon Orta – The Daughter (Story) 03:34:01 – Panzer Dragoon Orta – Pandora’s Box 03:43:32 - Crimson Dragon (A Failed Encore) 03:58:42 - Panzer Dragoon Remake (Swansong) 04:08:49 – The Answer (Conclusion) === #PanzerDragoon #Sega #retrospective
