Use this, sync it up somewhat and in 5-10 hours of trial and error you'll manage.

Let's face it, every girl in the first game is either insane, evil, or both to the point where the best girl, is your dragon.

He was just one guy. It's not elves that were cunts, it's faeries that were cunts in Drakengard, all of them, without exception.

Anoooo Koooooeeegaaaaa

I got a kick seeing Zero punch the faerie king.

How would you rank the intoners in terms of madness?
Who is the most batshit, Three or Four?

Didnt she go mad in D2 though? It wasnt really her fault, but it still sorta happened.
She was still best girl either way and I hope Caim fucked her.

This is the only correct answer.

>>Drakengard 1 has great voice acting
Inuart's "WHAT IS A WORLD WITHOUT FURIAE?" is absolutely legendary, and he's got the tragic, manic laugh on point. I also adore Angelus's voice, and think everyone else manages to capture the dread and despair the game shows in its world quite well.
>>Music is great

That might not have been what everyone thought it was, but I like to imagine that it was, just because it makes it all the more fucked up.

The least insane are easily One, Five, and Two (in no order). But the most insane is arguably Three.
Yeah it happened, but that was because of years of torture. Unlike the rest of them who were crazy since the beginning of the game's story.

They also used classical music actually incredibly well for a video game

Wait the fuck up, what? Can you source this? Amazing if true.

It’s a joke ending

Inuart's laughs are the laughs of a broken man. It's extremely evident in the cutscene before the final fight against him in chapter 9.

At least Five can be entertaining. One is basically one of the only Intoners with their head still on their shoulders.

They don't fuck. They just bond over their love of genocide.

i've never played this game before but im not exactly seeing why people are saying this is bad it looks like someone with even a mild experience with rhythm games could finish it with little to no problem

>Wise old men:Angelus.
I don't think there's a single person that doesn't think she's best girl.

It'd be easy if you had clear indicators for when to press the buttons.
The problem is the circles are borderline impossible to see half the time with the camera playing all sorts of bullshit tricks on you and the notes aren't really on an easily discernible set rhythm. There's even ones you have to hit during the final screen transition when the characters are just talking and the screen is completely black - it's pure trial and error.

I can FC a handful of 18s in SDVX and that sequence still took me hours.

have you ever tried tapping your foot like a metronome? while watching the video thats what i was doing while you clearly couldn't see your character i really looks like the only hard thing is the end where you can't see jack shit which would lead to it being more trial and error
are you supposed to lose if you fuck up a note or something im not sure how this exactly works

>Are you supposed to lose if you fuck up a note or something im not sure how this exactly works

Yeah, if you fail to perfectly hit even a single note you have to start over from the beginning, the timing required is fairly strict.
The entire thing is just way too long, doesn't help it has a minute long loading screen in-between attempts either.

The whole thing is over 8 minutes long and there are no checkpoints either. Mess up one note and it's back to the beginning.

I'd say the biggest problem is how the tempo gradually speeds up, while the number of notes increases. Then at the very end the tempo slows down again, which can be hard to adapt to. And that final note on the black screen.

Four(4) of course.

It's literally just a rhythm game. It's not fucking hard. I'll grant you the last note is actual bullshit but other than that you just have to press one fucking button in time with the music.

Drakengard 1's final boss however is actual cancer because it has no fucking rhythm. It's just 'press the buttons in response to the colour in the correct order with the barest minimum amount of allowed response time thirty times in a row or you fucking die'. Fucking Drakengard Ending E.

Yes but that shit is just 2 minutes, in 3 you're basically just taking a blind shot every 8 minutes, twice in a row may i add

If you're focusing on the visuals in the final boss of 3 you're missing the point. It's a call and response. I'm musically retarded but I can feel the beat enough to know when to hit it without looking.

Taro lives to throw tropes under a bus. I mean, when- outside of a hentai game, has the princess you're supposed to save desperately wanted to fuck her brother? No jap half siblings or raised like siblings shit. Her actual brother. And he's totally grossed out by it.

Attached: maximum lewd.jpg (728x1074, 235K)

Let's face it, Five wanting to know more about how to be happy is kind of interesting because of...how she normally is. You can say it's her greed for knowledge coming through, but I don't know.

>he's totally grossed out by it
I thought that was partly because of how she wasnt pure and was spewing pure hate about how she wanted everything to die as well and not just that
Hell, I'm not sure if he was ''totally grossed out by it'', it looked more like he was taken aback than plain disgusted

Gameplay was not very strong, but nobody it was probably the story & characters that threw people the most.

One of the creepiest things I had ever played in any game was from the dialogue of Two's DLC. On the surface, they're just weird boss fights, nothing we haven't seen a million times before. But the dialogue was heavy.

You think you're playing as just some generic anime chick who's low energy.

Then it turns out the anime chick you're playing as...she CREATED the monsters.

Then it doesn't stop there. The biggest monsters you fight are screaming things like "Mother!" "Father!"

Your anime chick is telling her sidekick how the weak willed die in the process, so she mentally tortures them first.

Things like going to a village, killing all the women in front of the men, so the men can be turned.

She says she wants to find things most precious to a person, so she can destroy it to make better monsters.

Then she asks her sidekick, what he values the most...

that was a low that blasted me straight out of left field

Was damn surprised by that. After everything they did to build up that character as selfish, vain, and gluttonous for every vice, you find out in written logs that she's trying to be a good ruler, feeding the poor, sheltering orphan children and all that.

Attached: 1410503944888.jpg (1093x725, 389K)

I thought it was him being very disgusted by Furiae. Nobody would blame him for being taken aback from the indirect confession.
I'm just surprised Five is secretly one of the nicer intoners even if there's the possibility that her kindness stems from her greed and her people could satisfy her being a general fatass. She went from my least favorite intoner from the first time you go through the story, to my second favorite intoner (I don't include Zero in the list of favorite intoners since it's obvious) after going through every side shit.

And Two was just extremely nice to everyone, was her fault being naive and loving a dumbfuck?

Absolutely. But she took a gentle approach to everything, not pragmatic or smart the way One did. Everything was behind rose tinted glasses. One wouldn't have outright listened to Cent, leaning more on books instead of "m-maybe this will work because it makes sense in my head."

Attached: Two did nothing wrong.jpg (714x1000, 201K)

Loved the story, characters, and was damn intrigued trying to figure everything out. It's like a puzzle you have to piece together type of stories, looking for clues wherever you can. Problem is that sometimes you have to get clues from outside the game, like from the comics or novels, to understand everything which bites since they are hard to find (sometimes impossible) in English.
Yoko Taro seems to love misery and turning things on its head. Even if she did everything right, the author would've found a way to destroy everybody...sadly as an Intoner probably whatever she does would've been cursed, being that she's got part of that evil world-destroying flower in her

>room IQ temperature

Yes, but because you like 3 as much as 1 and 2

I can get to the final two notes easily, but those two notes are just thrown randomly, there's no rhythm involved, in fact the only reason i can hit the last one right is because mikhail talks and gives me the clue

It was clear that she was too deep in love for her to notice Cent's stupidity.

The way that the game takes off into more and more fucked up directions with characters becoming aware of the branching & being driven mad by it is my single favourite implementation of NG+ in vidya

So, the flower is evil alien shit. That much we know, but where did Zero come from, actually? I always thought she was Rose, the whore who died with 5 other girls.

But I also recall one of the side stories (poorly) about the Cathedral City and some researcher or someone who inherited the eye? It's been a long time since I've read it, and I heard the original translations were shit tier and incomplete.

>jump further in the video

>was giving

They just released the flower in cathedral city i believe, the flower then found itself a body, one hateful enough to wreck as much havoc as it possibly could on its own before it could take control, the problem is that while Zero was indeed the best fitting person at the time, she was always an extremely objective and cold human being, almost like a machine, and was the flower felt at the time was just the hate of someone that was miserable her entire life and released it all at the very end, which is what the flower detected, and backfired because even though Zero was a horrible human being, she was like that out of need instead of genuine evil, that's what i got from everything i've read about the series at least

I've never heard anything otherwise, so Zero is the reanimated corpse of said whore. She retained enough of herself to react with viceral horror when she realized what this meant and was able to act against the flower's goals.

Thanks. I can't believe how long it's been since delving into DoD3. As others have mentioned before, really looking forward to XIV and seeing if there's anything beyond the predictable waifu bait.
