I know that the gameplay and tech are garbage, but fuck it. Just ordered Drakengard 3 from amazon.com. Can't go wrong for 20 bucks.
Garbage is a really strong word. I've played truly awful games, D3 is not one.

D3 had good gameplay. Action is my genre and I've played a lot of it. It just wasn't polished due to the obvious low budget. I really liked the gameplay the most in D3. Everything else, not so much.
A primer for anyone wanting to get into Drakengard. Some vague spoilers that don't really give the details of the events:
It's not even joking or exaggerating about the descriptions of things and characters in it. Your party members are an actual pedophile and cannibal. And the game isn't you playing the bad guys or villeins.
For ya'll that didn't have had the chance to play Drakengard and Nier but interested in knowing more, a let's play of both is available at lparchive.org.
An ongoing LP of Drakengard 3 is available at somethingawful.

Reaction to NieR New project announcement

lol i had the exact same reaction, but with tears of joy
Oh wow, there is some great stuff in that fanart section.For ya'll that didn't have had the chance to play Drakengard and Nier but interested in knowing more, a let's play of both is available at lparchive.org.

Now this is a story all about how
My world got flipped, turned upside down
Let me take a minute, it won't be too hard
I'll tell how I became the number one hit man in Midgard
In East Caerleon, born and raised
Guardin' the goddess was how I spent most of my days
Waltzin' round, killin', stabbing for fun
All the fools who came rushin' in to sack the kingdom
When a couple of guys who weren't thinkin' too good
Tied up a red dragon in my neighborhood
I got in one little fight and took a slash to my back
And said "Hate me if you will but we must have a pact"
I reached into my chest and when my hand came out
There was a glowing little orb with all my anger and doubt
If anything I could tell this act was insane
So I yelled "DRAKENGARD," and I turned off my brain
Haha, perfect.Oh wow, there is some great stuff in that fanart section.
So while all people involved make for a combination of pure sex and I'm hyped as fuck, I still firmly believe Nier was lightning in a bottle and cannot be replicated in spirit due to it being what it is. Much love for Nier, from me at least, comes from how surprising and oddball it is within the framework of a seemingly traditional ARPG. It's very deceptive. And you can't really pull the same trick twice without losing some of that spark, even if what you end up with is outstanding.
So yeah. I want Nier 2 by Yoko Taro and co with Platinum Games. And I also don't want Nier 2. If that makes sense.

Oh shit. Somethingawful LPs of all of them I'll make a point of reading them at some point. The few that I have read have been funny as hell. I also love the word filter that site has for non-members
No, apparently just a miniscule detail was lost in translation and voice acting. When sister's mind gets read and all her thoughts are revealed to everyone, "oniichan" is used instead of the more normal "oniisan", and the voice acting puts emphasis on that. Otherwise identical script.That description is great but it missed the part about his sister wants to bone him hard. Wasn't it sort of censored in West?

- The theme of the game is "agaku," a Japanese word that means to struggle/desperately fight your way out of a situation. (According to the translator.)
- There are three main protagonists in the game: the girl in the trailer (who is a completely new character), a young boy, and a character not yet revealed.
- The three protagonists may travel together at times, but not always. (This is still being decided.)
- The development team is toying with the idea of allowing players to experience multiple playthroughs using each of the main characters.
- The reason the game is on the PS4 is because of the platform's high specs.
- One of Platinum Games' goals is to have the game run at 60 FPS.
Still not sure about Emi Evans presence ?
Im pretty sure they said none of the other characters will return. But he could just be protecting us from spoilers.
Emi Evans is the singer who defined Nier's OST. She also contributed to Drakengard 3's.

OOPS, i thought you meant Emil from the first game heh, my bad.

Apparently, it was confirmed that she'd be working on the game in the Dengeki article.
Q: そして『NieR』といえば、未来語(?)を操る歌姫エミ・エヴァンスさんのことが忘れがたいのですが。
岡部:素敵ですよね、エミさんの歌声。もちろん、今回もエミさんにはぜひ作品に絡んでいただこうと思っています。前作ではほぼすべての楽曲に歌声を入れるというテーマがあったんですが、新作の音楽はまだ未知数ですからね……。それでも、エミさんの歌声は『NieR』には欠かせないと思いますので、皆さんもぜひご期待ください。
RIP AND TEAR?
Drakengard 2's story has numerous flaws, but the way how Caim, who I may remind some of you, was the protagonist of the first game, was turned into a slasher horror villain, was fucking inspirational. They really didn't change his character all that much either! Tormenting Manah is his lifelong mission
Aha... Drakengard game running at 60fps...
Sounds very promising (rough, quick translation):
Q: Speaking of Nier, its hard to forget Emi Evans who used this future(?) language to such a great effect (in the music of the game).
A (Okabe Keiichi): Her voice is really incredible, isnt it. Of course were thinking that we absolutely want her to be involved this time as well. In the last game, almost all the songs had lyrics, the number of songs (with lyrics) in the next game is still undecided And yet, I think that Emis voice is indispensable to Nier, so please anticipate it everyone.
It's Platinum. I'm not worried about the game's performance or gameplay at all.
Re installing the game on 360 right now... only played a couple of hours total but this announcement got me pumped!
To give Platinum some credit, they never really hit 60fps because there is normally too much going happening on screen. Seeing as this will be an ARPG and with a less deep combat system I'm sure they're more likely to hit 60fps, even more so with the newer hardware.
haha you really think there's going to be less things on the screen in nier?
those dudes are gonna find a way to flood the entire goddamn screen with bullets and make the frame rate tank to single digits
and it will be glorious

some scenes were literal bullet hells.
Indeed, not only did the first game have huge God of War syle bosses, some scenes were literal bullet hells.
The game was actually pretty smooth despite all this, graphics weren't mindblowing but the draw distance was huge, it had some really wide open environments.
Excellent. If it's not running at 5FPS, it's not Cavia. Slap it on the back of the box as a bullet point.
spoilers in link for those who haven't played nier:
seriously, this fight: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DprF-R-U_xg#t=3m40s is one of my favorites 'cuz of that
i really am super excited to see what platinum can do with the concept because it is insanely unique in both an aesthetic and gameplay manner
I wish Nier would get released on PSN or even PC so I could actually play it, it's actually impossible for me to get this game for less than 50 and that's a bit much for a gamble
One of Platinum Games' goals is to have the game run at 60 FPS.
Kinda hope they will make this 60fps. Platinum might push for it. Doesnt need to look amazing, some decent textures would already go a long way.
