Drakengard 3 is an action RPG that plays very similarly to Nier albeit in a more linear fashion. All of this aside, Drakengard 3 is not a bad game and I enjoyed it from beginning to close to the end. There is a sense of humor that is prevalent throughout the game, though it is cruder and more juvenile than what was in Nier, and none of the characters in Drakengard 3 are particularly likable. Drakengard 3 has a good soundtrack but it was not as a impressive. Aside from better graphics and more interesting enemy design, Nier was superior in all other areas. So naturally after learning that Nier takes place after the fifth endings of Drakengard, my interest was instantly piqued in Drakengard 3 some time later when I saw it at a local game store, and despite mediocre reviews, it ended up in my collection.ĭrakengard 3 is not Nier, which shouldn’t have surprised me since that was a common warning in customer reviews from some online store. The sense of humor, story and especially the music all appealed to me. Nier is not a triple A title, nor is it one that is expected to top the majority of favorite RPG lists, but for whatever reason it clicked with me and I was completely enthralled by it. In this list there was a game called Nier which sounded interesting and was cheap enough to take a chance on a purchase after reading a one paragraph synopsis. Drakengard 3 ended up on my radar thanks to the indirect influence of a clickbait article about obscure RPGs that are worth checking out. Some of these can be very minor and do little to interrupt the flow of game, but one in particular was so aggravating it lead to pitching an idea for a monthly column solely to be used as a public forum to vent my frustration. Fatal Flaws examines these scars that are left on games, whether they are just mildly out of place or come close to ruining an otherwise quality game.Īs stated in the general description of this column, almost every game has some flaw I can find reason to complain about. Some aspect of their design leaves a stain on the experience, forcing the player to question what in the world were they thinking. There have been many good games that have been held back from achieving greatness.
