They arrived at Cathedral City and things once again take a turn for the worse. Things are looking up for Zero, she has amassed a following of disciples, killed some Intoners and despite being constantly annoyed at Mikhail’s childlike buffoonery, it looks like the quest will succeed. They two travel, killing Intoners as they encounter them and recruiting their disciples to assist in their journey while providing, um, other such services during the travels. Zero and Mikhail’s quest to kill the Intoners seems to be going well, and those who haven’t played this may want to skip this paragraph if they want to avoid branch A spoilers. Zero still wants to rid the world of the Intoners, so she and her infantile dragon venture out into the world to do such a thing. A year passes and we are back at Zero’s place with a childlike reincarnation of Michael named Mikhail. Things seem to be going well as Zero successfully made it into the city by cutting down the loyal soldiers of the Intoners, but things quickly go sideways when One’s dragon Gabriel puts an end to the assassination attempts, gravely wounding both Zero and Michael. Zero and her dragon Michael have invaded Cathedral City on a mission to kill all the Intoners. The game begins in what seems like it should be the climax. As the other five Intoners are worshiped as gods in their respective territories, Zero isn’t exactly well liked as her mission is to destroy herself, the flower and the five Intoners. The player controls Zero, an Intoner who attempted suicide but was saved from death in order to be an instrument of mankind’s destruction. The Intoners are named One, Two, Three, Four and Five, and their powers come from an evil magical flower. In the world of Drakengard 3 peace was achieved through five Intoners, who are women that are able to use magic powers through song and defeated warlords long ago. Playing the original NieR rekindled my interest in Drakengard, so when Drakengard 3 was released in 2014, it was something that was immediately wanted.ĭrakengard 3 is an action RPG and a prequel to the original Drakengard, set 100 years prior to the events of that game. Sadly, during its PlayStation 2 release Drakengard was a game I would look at in local game stores and considered because the title reminded me of the SNES game Drakkhen, but regrettably never actually purchased it. Going further back in, NieR is actually a spin off of another franchise Yoko Taro worked on called Drakengard. NieR Automata is the sequel to NieR, which was played by approximately six people prior to the release of its sequel and based on its Metacritic numbers did not receive the same reception. NieR Automata seemingly came out of nowhere to nearly-universal critical acclaim, countless awards and accolades with sales numbering in the millions. We even have a beige computer with a floppy disk drive. All the classic systems are down there collecting dust, so in an effort to improve the cleanliness of our work space, we dust off these old consoles every so often and put an old game through its paces, just to make sure everything stays in working order. The basement at the Hardcore Gamer office has a section known as the Crust Room, with an old grey couch and a big old CRT TV. Zero's touches on stuff that doesn't come up until Ending D, and should be saved until right before the final boss or after clearing it.Member the games you used to play? We member. With the exception of Zero's, you should be able to play the DLC without fear of spoilers after Ending A.Stay away from Three's altogether unless you really, really like her as a character because her DLC is really bad. Two's and Four's are generally accepted to be the best of the bunch, although One's and Five's aren't too bad if you don't mind using Chakrams/Lances respectively. Not only will it give you a little more backstory on them, but each one has about 500,000 Gold up for grabs. If you're committed enough to actually go for Ending D, just save yourself the trouble and buy the DLC for your favorite sister and play that. And speaking of the shop, the weapons in there get incredibly expensive, and you will have to grind in order to buy out the last few. There are a few hidden in side missions, but the majority of them will come from chests inside the levels or from the shop. You will need all the weapons to unlock Branch D and the true final boss.This is normal, and upgrading them won't make them any better. Chakrams are awful and you'll probably find yourself not using them outside of the times when the game actively forces you to.
