Would that not be dependent on where you're ordering it from? Really glad we're getting it in Europe but I gotta say that is some sketchy voice work from Zero.

How self aware is this though? Like horrible Deadpool self aware where they directly reference bad game design or are the characters just complaining about having to do objectives while looking at the camera?Forgall posted:Yeah, Drakengard's insanity was played straight, as far as I remember. This winking at the camera stuff doesn't really work. And what jokes are left for The Dark Id to make when the game is already parodying itself? Maybe just let the game show itself off then

Okay then that's just a lousy joke if the level design is still terrible. It'd be nice if whenever they do these self aware jokes they just circumvent it somehow. I mean surely there's some sort of solution considering she has a massive dragon with her.

Oh Cavia, only you could get the idea that your game design is terrible and then think it would be wonderful to poke fun at yourself instead of fixing it. This is starting to sound like a whole new breed of Drakengard!

You know if the gameplay is as decent as Nier's was and it's being insane and self aware I think i'll be happy. I realize I don't give a poo poo if the story is trying to take itself seriously or not having played tons of Wonderful 101.

Artix posted:Well I got Ending A and welp, that sure looks like the one that leads into Drakengard 1. Now, off to Route B, where the true Drakengard begins. Wait, you thought that leads into Drakengard? What about the doves and the fact that brother one just splits into Manna and Seere and the "We took a wrong turn" lady? I just got ending A last night and I swear it barely connects to Drakengard. That boss too, whenever I attempted to do a slam with Mikhail he'd manage to miss, try and correct his path according to the lock on, miss again and start flying straight up into the roof. Bonus Fun fact: if you kill a Golem while it's launching it's hands and a cutscene plays right after it'll glitch and loop the launching hands sound effect, over and over again.

Artix posted:I dunno, Brother really looked like Manah after getting a bunch of Zero's blood on him and he wandered off saying something about starting a new religion and I figured that was the sanest things were gonna get. If not, I guess I'll be proven wrong pretty quickly. I really don't care about the continuity or anything, I'm here for the crazy. You're right but I still don't know when, how or if brother one splits into seere and manna or if he's like their parent or something. It's just weird because they just go "Heeeey doesn't brother one look kinda like Manna, yep that's how Drakengard gets started." But hey this is Drakengard! I shouldn't think too much into this.

Beef Waifu posted:You were supposed to shoot fireballs into his mouth. That almost never worked for me. I ended up just finding out his simple pattern then running up and doing that fire breath attack. Always knocked him down for me. I don't know of any problems while fighting with Mikhail that can't be solved by fire breath.

# ¿ May 30, 2014 09:19 |

I actually found the fire breath safer, because he's locked in a direction once he starts charging and i can run to hit left and right and fire breath him. Also the moment your breath attack begins he gets stunned and you get extra damage in with the fire breath and get to prep another. The only unsafe attack against him is doing a flying charge which always cause Mik to freak out and fly into the ceiling letting him.

It doesn't sound like she enjoys it. More like she'd rather not have to put in the effort of killing all those soldiers to get to her sisters. She'd prefer her sisters just line up so she could kill them and be done. Dito now obviously enjoys it. Dito is Caim.

Man I love this game. So on Cent, is he more fleshed out in the other routes past the first? The moment you get him you're already close to the end and he doesn't get much time.

Cool, for the short time I had Cent on my team the only thing I kept thinking was "This guys hiding something. What's wrong with him? Why doesn't he have any severe mental issues like the rest?"

On Spirits, I've found on more then one occasion that launching them into the air will remove the spirit and if it doesn't I can just air combo the poo poo outta them until they die or the spirt pops out.

Monomythian posted:Also you goons are crazy, Three's dlc was the best one. Aside from the dialogue what was actually good about that? The arena fights with a lovely moveset are not fun. Neither was the platforming.

Monomythian posted:The game is ugly as sin and watching the same doors open and close again as loading times is really tedious. Why would you ever want to spend more time running through the levels then you absolutely have to? Three's arenas are great because its an variety of unique enemies/combinations just thrown in front of you to murder. While she explains what they are and why she made them, instead of mowing down a hundred ineffective soldiers like all the other sisters. Dialogue's still good but this would have been a lot more fun if we could do this with any sister or different weapon movesets. Three's attack animations are kinda lazy also, it would have been nice to include maybe a swing with the scissors in her other hand or work those in properly instead of being another sword. The gameplay in Three's DLC is terrible.

Now I haven't played Zero's DLC but having played the DLC for 1-5 I don't think it's really worth 30 bucks. It's handy for bucket loads of in game cash though.

^ Don't forget in Nier because he killed the Shadowlord it'll cause the rest of humanity(Replicants) to die out and all the shades will go mad. Also notice that he didn't really cure his daughter, just saved her from the shadowlord.

Welp Zero's DLC crashed just at the end of it so I skipped that part. Don't need the money at this point anyway. Sooooo.....gently caress the final boss. gently caress it's stupid camera changes and gently caress the long rear end loading time for restarting it. Still have to beat it.

I know, I know. What's happening on screen doesn't need to be used. I'll wrap this up tonight. If it weren't for the loading times I'd be absolutely fine with this.

We have all these great chefs, if you will, working together, and now, is it going to be missing that thing that made it so endearing to our fans?
