One of Drakengard's possible endings showed a gigantic demonic being emerge through the portal. Though Caim fought valiantly with his dragon companion's help, The Watchers ultimately acquired all the seeds and opened the portal. Each seed was stored inside one of the various kingdoms, and The Watchers' powerful empire had conquered all but one the one Caim fought for. These seeds could be put together to create a portal to another dimension and summon an evil being to destroy humanity. The story of Drakengard began generations later when a hero named Caim fought against The Watchers, who sought out the seeds of destruction. These children would create a cult known as The Watchers.
Of course, things are never that easy, as one of the sisters created a clone of herself, who went on to have children which possessed the intoners' powers. By the end of Drakengard 3 she completed her mission and destroyed all the intoners- including herself. After Zero discovered that the intoners' power came from an evil flower who wanted to destroy humanity, she set out to kill her sisters in an effort to stop this plan from reaching fruition. The player controlled Zero, who along with her intoner sisters, could control magic through song. There is a lot to this game and I’m sure that if you play it and actually pay attention from start to finish that you will have a grand old time and understand everything just fine.Drakengard 3 took place in the fantasy setting of Cathedral City and its surroundings. Set many years before the previous games, as a prequel, there are actually multiple timelines, called branches, that tell a few slightly different stories as things progress. Right, here’s the crazy bit of it all the story. Then the combat kicks off and the score sets the scene in a way that I just can’t get over. Similar to the ethereal and intriguing exploration music you get from Nier, it engages you in the world and fills you with a bizarre sense of wonder. Oh, my goodness, this has a soundtrack for the ages. As the player is dressed all in white, it only makes sense so I’m glad that they thought to include it. If it wasn’t for the music, you’d feel as though the world was empty.Ī small detail that I appreciated is how covered in blood you get in combat. An enemy could be around the corner at any point and you have no idea because the world sees alive yet suspiciously quiet at all times. You play a character on a quest to another location and must fight various battles and monsters along the way, there is a strange feeling of never knowing which door is going to lead to another battle. With some downright beautiful visuals and world design and a fantastic amount of travelling so that you can see it all, I am somewhat reminded of the Devil May Cry 4 game with gives a similar air of traversal and uncertainty.
