Squandered Potential: Games that could have been so much more

[bluestarultor]

Well, I'mma pick an obvious one and say Chrono Cross. So underdeveloped. But I'll leave that one at that.


I'll also have to say The Legend of Dragoon. It was a solid game as it was, but then it kind of drove itself off a cliff in the last quarter with Miranda. I'm sorry, but it was just a poor choice to introduce a new character that late in the game and then keep on trying to develop her up until the very end. She came in as a bitch, stayed a bitch, and got a Freudian excuse when it was too late to matter. She never really meshed with the team. If they'd introduced her earlier and had GIVEN her her backstory earlier and made her deal with her problems and actually develop, it might have been okay.

Also, some of the Dragoon powers just weren't worth it. The cast really needed to have a better balance in their abilities.
