* TheComputerIsACheatingBastard: The Grotesqueries don't follow the same rules from level to level. After a flying level where the player can roast them with ease and their projectiles only hit for about a circle of health, the next level is an on-foot level where they're suddenly immune to dragon breath and magic. Two levels later is one more flying level where their projectiles suddenly hit you for a quarter of your health. No mention is made of them getting stronger in-universe, they just seem to have whatever abilities is convenient for that level.

* DragonRider: Caim (and Nowe in ''2'') can take massive leaps to mount his dragon in field battles and rides on her back in aerial battles.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: As the first game in the series as well as Taro Yoko's first real project, it's unsurprising that this game sticks out compared to later installments, for instance lacking much of the quirky humor and moral complexity of later titles. To elaborate, not only are the villains essentially mere thralls of an AxCrazy genocidal cult, the "[[NominalHero heroic]]" main cast of the game is a rather unsubtle TakeThat against the tropes he was {{Deconstructing}} at the time, with their humanizing and sympathetic moments being few and far between. The characters in all his later games were given considerably more nuanced and sympathetic portrayals even with the DeconstructorFleet being in full effect.
