Did Drakengard 3 deserve that 4.8/10 review?
>>
>>748933582
Every Yoko Taro game is 5/10 or below
>>
Should have been at least a 6.
>>
>>748933582
its a 7/10 desu
>>
Thats about the exact number I think of it desu.
>>
>>748933582
Nah its better than stuff like Witcher 3 or Fallout 3 that got 10/10s everywhere
>>
It's simultaneously a 2/10 and a 11/10
>>
I dare anyone to play more than an hour and come to a different conclusion. I'd say it's the best 3/10 ever made.
>>
>>748933582
I mean, it ran like shit, had repetitive gameplay, side quests were awful and the game looked really drab, even by PS3 standards.
If the story and characters are the only good things about it, its gonna end up being a niche product, and it was.
>>
>>748933582
this shit ran like at 15 fps, it was still pretty fun tho repetitive asf if you wanted to get the true ending

I beat it on the PS3 years ago, and it's easily 7.5 / 10, the very least. It's only downsides are purely technical issues, as the console seriously struggled to run Unreal Engine 3 well.

I do hope that we get a good PC recompilation of the DoD games soon. The emulation is nice and all, and can get you smooth 60fps if yer hardware is up for the task... but it's still a bit hacky.

>Accord doesn't really give any indications beyond flirting with Zero
2 out of 7 is pretty close for anon, to be fair.

>>748935439
accord only counts as a side character
they are all sex obsessed, including one two and four, its part of being an intoner
they are all whores and they are all based off both women and aspects of Zero (a literal prostitute)'s personality

despite the amazing fast progress so far, this is still very early in development so there's no ETA, but this is done the old way by hand, no static recomp or AI automated shit
>>
>>748935563
(even if four is a virgin whore and two is maybe a monogamous whore)
>>
>>748935439
Accord doesn't count as she's a clanker and not one of the numbers.

>>748935608
Also I wouldn't be surprised if she sold herself and her clones at her shop

Don't be stupid.

>>
>>748935774
Accord even doesn't even show up until you get the final ending. There is only text references before that.
>>
>>748935939
>Accord even doesn't even show up until you get the final ending
so you didnt play the game, good to know, cause she does appear several times throughout all branches after ending A
>>
>>748935939
She's in every branch, and surrounding media. If you're going to include 5 who does nothing but innuendos and being the punchline of a joke, then you'd be retarded not to include Accord.
>>
>>748936174
>she does appear several times after the first ending
>main female character
>>
>>748936232
without her we wouldnt have 75% of the game, and she is the sole reason why we get to see the other branches, so yes, she's literally one of the main characters

imagine thinking a character isnt important only cause they show up after 20% of the game
>>
>>748936174
>>748936225

It's been so long since I last played it, my memory is shot. I'm also drunk. I do know that she got mentioned in a loading screen in the Nier Remake. She's also best girl. I love her chonky 80s cell phone.
>>
>>748936393
Main character does not imply or require essential for how the plot happens to have been written
She is a textbook side character, even the dudes are mainer in comparison
>>
>>748936493
mainlier you might say
>>
>>748933582
Only the soundtrack is good, so yeah.
>>
>>748936412
Each Branch is a self contained timeline and you never actually follow the same characters in 3, Accord is the character that ties the endings together basically. She also appears in the prequel manga and the sequel manga to Branch A.
>>
>>748936493
See >>748936556
Accord is the main perspective that we view the entire game though.
>>
>>748936556
I have no knowledge of the side materiel. I'm not a fucking nerd.
>>
>>748936781
No, she isn't
>>
>>748933582
Game was borderline unplayable so yes
>>
>>748933582
The eventual claude recomp will make it a 7/10 game.
>>
>>748936821
..and it would be irrelevant even if she was, which she isn't. She is a side character.
>>
>>748936821
>>748936898
she literally is.
Each time one branch ends, we see her visiting another one and play in it, without her, we couldnt see what happens in the other branches.
how can you even claim that the MAIN reason why most of the game happens and the main proxy through which we see it is irrelevant
>>
>>748936821
>mini bosses that barely have dialogue
>different versions of characters who appear maybe twice at best that we don't even have proper context for
Those are main characters, right there.

>plot integral character that the player views the various timelines with and the only consistent character throughout
Side character at best.

You're being stupid.
>>
>>748936979
You are so dumb you have to be a zoomer or something. One it's fiction and can show us whatever perspectives it wants for whatever reason. It always shows it from Zero's perspective, even if it's just multiple timelines Zero. Accord is just a plot device to connect them so they don't feel totally disconnected. Drakengard (1) isn't the only yoko taro game to do it and Accord isn't in all of the games
>main reason why
So Caim is a main character in Nier? You idiot

The only thing that doesn't make any sense is the start. How the hell did the sisters become God like entities in such a short amount of time?
They never even show how the flower infects the fmc. Missing a good portion of the story seems rather retarded
>>
>>748937348
its in the book or dlc or some shit i forget which
zero was sold to a brothel, had a shitty life, died but got brought back by the flower, tried to kill herself but it reanimated her and created the sisters as a failsafe
>>
>>748937348
>They never even show how the flower infects the fmc
she literally explains in in branch D.
A more detailed retelling is in the prelude novella(for how Zero got the flower), and in Utahime Five(prequel manga, focuses on the intoners and how they got the powerup that made them so strong)
>>
I hate how you need to acquire supplemental maltreats to get the whole story.
>>
>>748937348
>How the hell did the sisters become God like entities in such a short amount of time?
The Intoners are basically exponentially growing eldritch horrors that brainwash people through songs granted to them by gods. That part is explained ingame, but what isn't is that they started as a hero party of sisters who earned their initial respect in the world and place as leaders, you only get that context by reading a manga.
>>
>>748933582
more like 4.8 fps lmao.
>>
>>748937452
>>748937567
It only tells you in a small bit of text. That's it. You'd think they'd show something that important considering it sets the stage for the story itself.
Instead it starts at like 30% into the story. It's just stupid.
>>
>>748937774
why do you need to know that to enjoy the story? it must be because of retards like you that they have the whole
>now let us sing of the world's end

>>
>>748937814
SAR SAR STORY NOT IMPORTAN SAR
>>
>>748937774
The story only really starts once she's recovered though, and because of that for most of the game you think she's actually killing her family and might just be a bad person. The cold open of a dragon pissing leading into a confrontation is way more engaging than a generic JRPG flashback start that goes back even further than the prequel manga and takes away all the mystery of the Intoners from the start of the game.
>>
>>748937845
BACKstory is not intrinsically important to the story, otherwise you would need BACKBACKstory etc you idiot
>>
>>748937930
this except for them ruining it with the whole
>let's sing of the world's end
line
>>
>>748937774
the entire series(including both drakengard and nier) literally works that way, you are never shown the full story, thats the entire point of this style of storytelling(which isnt unique), being dropped in a situation without the full context, where you either slowly find out how it all started, or you're never revealed any of it cause that's part of a more broader narrative spanning the entire series(which in this case doesnt include just the games, but also the books, mangas, and novels)

if you think this is stupid, then most games are stupid, cause as example, you're never told or shown how Solid Snake became who he is, his past in foxhound, his training, other missions, etc, you're just dropped in after the disbanment of the unit, despite that being quite central to the story.
the same goes for god of war(the original trilogy), and plenty other games.
>>
>>748938192
>cause that's part of a more broader narrative
or because it's character driven or otherwise just not about all the irrelevant details about what the tax policy the aliens destroying earth have back on their home planet when the main characters blow them up
>>
>>748937930

people really don't understand that a lot of the charm of these games comes from NOT knowing, from the mystery, from being left with unanswered question even after the end credits(the actual last ones)

I remember people posting about how much more playable it was on RPCS3 compared to console years ago. An actual port would be better since it doesn't have to go through the emulation layer but my PC is really crap right now either way.

>>748933582
Maybe, the only good thing about that game is the story. It runs like dogshit, the gameplay is pure repetitive kusoge and the final "boss" is a cease and desist letter to the player.
I love it so much.

Feeling generous?
>>
>>748933582
Yeah. Its technically unplayable. 7 to 20 fps with some of the worst frame pacing logged in an action game. Actually it has the worst performance of any action game. Music and story are fantastic, combat is solid but its objectively unplayable except now on PC via emu.

Yes. As a game it fails in almost every level. It really, really, really should've just been an anime or LN or something, because every single aspect of it that stems from it being a videogame is fucking garbage

It ran very poorly, but it really was only "unplayable" in some of the later sidequests with a lot of enemies or multiple fishmen. You don't need to frame everything as absolutes, anon.

Anon, I don't know if you're an ESL or just accidentally overlooking it because you really like DoD3, but placing words in quotes like "this" implies a different meaning than the literal one.

>>748943031
My bad. I thought >>748942592 sincerely meant that DoD3 was actually unplayable, i.e. couldn't be completed.
>>
>>748942592
If you enjoy your action games to have single digits fps and high teens with the worse frame pacing in the genre then have it at. I own the collectors edition. Its got a good story and OST. The game runs worse than any other action on the market. Action games that run at single digit FPS is a crime against humanity and you fanboys sweep it under the rug.
>>
>>748937121
>>
>>748943514
>and you fanboys sweep it under the rug.
Almost every single post praising the game includes the caveat that it runs like shit so you should emulate instead. Even back then when PS3 was the only option everyone agreed it was shit and that you put up with it for the other aspects in the same way you put with DoD1 being complete garbage too. You're so desperate to be seen as a special snowflake.
>>
>>748933582
Yes. Even Nier is only a 7/10 and it's the best games In the series
>>
I genuinely hope Drakengard 3 never gets a remaster or port.
I had to suffer through the 12 fps drops so should everyone else.
>>
>>748942050
I think you could only have the quantity of inane bantering between Zero and the disciples in a videogame. For me this is a plus but I know not everyone feels that way.

You can get the music from the game files itself if you have a dump.
I made this ages ago https://nixx.is-fantabulo.us/dod3camp/ since I was mad the OST didn't have the camp music.
The files themselves are untouched iirc so you get 128kbps mp3 in the game files, I guess.

I didn't say it was an entirely pleasant experience, but it's definitely doable. The only part I could not complete on the older PS3 models was the true final boss because fuck you yoko taro I hate you

I thought even that still didn't have the full soundtrack because things like Intoner mode were done by layering it on top ingame?
