About Gears of Dragoon: Fragments of a New Era
Within the labyrinth, one may find the truth.
The city-state of Carnas prospers, founded on a rich, thriving culture of magic. Unbeknownst to its inhabitants, relics of a bygone era lie hidden beneath their feet.
In Carnas, machinery is seen as an affront to the sacred art of magic. But when individuals capable of manipulating mechanical wonders begin to emerge, they upset the city's magical balance, causing disquiet and unrest, particularly among the ruling class.
Two ideologies, tangible and esoteric, coexist in a city where magic once held unrivaled supremacy. As tension simmers beneath the surface, the gears of destiny begin to turn.
A daring young adventurer, driven by insatiable curiosity, braves the ruins beneath Carnas. And if the legends hold true, the secrets of this enigmatic underworld await his discovery...
Evoking classic JRPGs with intense combat and immersive top-down exploration, Gears of Dragoon: Fragments of a New Era is Ninetail's magnum opus, celebrating their 10th anniversary.
Welcome to the enchanting city-state of Carnas, a realm steeped in arcane wonders, governed by skilled magic users. Yet, beneath its cobblestone streets and towering spires lies an unexpected contrast—the Dragonschaft, a labyrinth filled with forgotten technology and mechanical mysteries. This underworld, teeming with monstrous creatures and remnants of an extinct machine-driven civilization, waits silently beneath the bustling life of Carnas.
Meet Rustar, a young adventurer imbued with curiosity. Bearing his father's final words and a unique talent—the mastery of both magic and machinery—Rustar dares to venture into the depths of the Dragonschaft. His journey takes an unexpected turn when Percy, a fiery young woman wielding an ancient artifact, crosses his path.
With their destinies intertwined, Rustar and Percy delve deeper into the Dragonschaft. The resurgence of a mechanical civilization within its depths disrupts the magical balance Carnas has maintained for centuries. As echoes of a forgotten era stir, so too do the ancient gears of fate, thrusting our heroes into a quest that will forever alter their lives and the course of Carnas.
Prepare for an epic journey in 'Gears of Dragoon: Fragments of a New Era'. Challenge the labyrinth, unlock the secrets of the past, and shape the future of Carnas.

Well, complaints first. You need to figure out the Drag n' Drop interface. Drag n' drop is how you do many critical things, such as equipping weapons, applying items, and populating menus with skills. It feels both byzantine and obtuse, but things go more smoothly once you've figured it out. Navigating in a dungeon can be painful until you find the relevant map. Monster fights are heavily influenced by elemental attributes. The strengths and weaknesses of an enemy can be read by left-clicking on the enemy, but this is also overly obscure. As far as I can tell, a strength/weakness rating for fire, say, of "B" means the enemy is resistant to fire, while a rating of "H" means the enemy is weak to fire. Unless I missed it in a tutorial, there's nothing to make this clear to you except experience. But all that said, once you've figured it out, this is an engaging, entertaining, and well-made dungeon crawler.4 found this helpful

[h1]An rpg that asks the age old question of fiction: Magic or Technology?[/h1] A fairly good, though dated, VN x Dungeon crawler. There is a patch for 'scenes' if you want, but not needed. Kay is my waifu.1 found this helpful
Not a bad RPG but its a really good example or a game where developers got so hung up on making it hard they didnt bother to think about whether what they made was fun at all. You'll spend a lot of time going through 2 hour long dungeons where you kill every normal enemy in one auto attack with a boss at the end that will make you reload autosaves 80 times until you get a fight that doesnt kill your entire party before you get a turn.
