![]() ![]() The story is also pretty good, sometimes the game can't seem to make up its min whether it wants to be funny or serious, but overall it's ok, it's at least more original than the story of some games these days. The only really good things I can say about this game is the sound track is very reminiscent of Nier, I loved Nier and the I adore the soundtrack of Drakengard 3 all the same. Among one of the most amateur mistakes this game makes however is the bad AI There is no excuse for that kind of AI, not these days, AI are frequently running into walls, and sometimes your companions don't notice the hundreds of enemies surrounding them and will just stand there taking hits, it's bad, unforgivably bad. Usually I wouldn't comment on such a thing, when a game has a Japanese Audio feature, but being a lucky schmuck from Europe Square released this tripe and didn't fix the damn Japanese dub, leaving us with no choice but to listen to the American cast. The voices don't really help, it's a Japanese game and while it hasn't got the worst cast in the history of American dubbed games, you're likely to hear rare classics like Yuri Lowenthal whose whiny voice makes already hated characters that much more hated. I'm not even kidding, everything that comes out of their mouth is crude filth, and while I enjoy that sort of thing usually, constantly hearing it just makes the characters hollow and really puts a dampener on the whole game. By far one of the worst things about this game though are the characters, 1 dimensional tools who apparently can't go a single sentence without some depraved sexual statement, one of which is overly eager to share his desire for masochistic punishment. One of the selling points of this game was being able to fly on a dragon, yay!.Unfortunately the dragon steers abysmally, this coming from someone who's steered the helicopters in GTA V, that's saying something. While it does a mostly ok job at this, the game takes any and every opportunity to glitch and show its atrocious frame rate making the game virtually unplayable during the later levels where there are lots of enemies as well as big ones. As for combat, the game is a basic hack and slash. I'm an old school gamer, so rarely do I concern myself with graphics too much, but my god this game is UGLY, the prime example is the leading leading, Zero herself Somehow a woman wearing completely white, with white hair can still look dirty, courtesy of the obviously low budget this game was working on. For starters the game feels like its a decade old, no scratch that, there are games that actually are a decade old that appear more advanced than this game. Quite honestly could never recommend this game to anyone, especially in its current state. But I could not even bring myself to start on the second play through. It is tasteless, stupid, pointless and not even funny in the slightest. All the while you get to hear the character you collect along the way tasteless talk about sex. Before the first ending (and more or less up until the last second of it) the story can be easily summed up as "Zero wants to kill her sisters because she's a **** With only vague hints in the last couple scenes that there may be more. I should not have to literally beat the game once before things get interesting. While I have heard that it improves quite a bit after the first play through. Easily making the boss fights, complete with epic music. The set scene and well themed bosses manages to make them actually very interesting. The boss battles are typically pretty cool. While most of them having only a few standout sections. The levels are lengthy, and have very little variety. Well sorry but pointing out that your game is poorly designed doesn't make it any less poorly designed. With the main character literally complaining about the games poor design choices on a regular basis. I chose the former, finding it to be a lot more reliable.Īnd all the little enemies are either pointless, or annoying. You are basically stuck dodging backwards 2 or 3 times, or timing one dodge perfectly. and the fact that all of them spin around like ballerinas during that time. With lengthy wind-up times they should be alot easier to dodge then they are. that is all counterbalanced completely by the enemies that you use them to fight.Īll the big enemies feel pretty much the same to fight. And they function differently from one another.īut for how good the character controls and weapons are. The game has an insane number of weapons. and of course the character controls are awesome. The soundtrack is great, the character designs are fairly well done. ![]() There are a couple of things that I like about this game. Despite everything that I am going to say. And if you liked the first Drakengard game you will probably enjoy this quite a bit. Drakengard 3 carries on it's predecessors legacy completely.
