3 years later this comment still rocks.

Boring Name ken doll

It wasn't a pompadour, but he did have some luscious, flowing locks.

He saved Josuke as a child. His hair style as a result lives on through the Jostar line. Drakengard is a Jojo reference

If only I could be cool now as I was 4 years ago, this guy was pretty funny

Ikr.... comfort food for.. your.. eyes? Lol idk, but Clemps has always been my fav YT 😅

Same 😂 doing it now for the millionth time lol

ditto

Like what

oookaayy doood Eve’s tattoos

@@tackwardsfongjump1800 oh yeaah i forgot about that, his tattoo is like the cult of the watchers symbol or something right?

oookaayy doood which is also kinda a reference to drakengard 3 because the symbol was retconned and now represents one and her brother.

I mean it makes sense since Drakenguard IS the starting point to the series.

To be fair, Yoko Taro has a point. I meant what person who kills a lot of enemies deserves a happy ending?

Yaaay! I did the "Read it just as it comes up" thing I hear so much about! Consider your comment narrated!

Yeah. But still.

Did it mean something to him? Or just another Anime trope?

I mean compared to everyone else he got off easy Caim can't talk anymore Leonard cant see Arioch cant coincide and give birth And seere can't age at all

​@torrashinjiro4196 the last one could be done well depending who they are

And people complain about Puck rofl

Drakengard will always be lit as fuck

I played a bit of it recently and man I would love it as a kid, just going around KILLING for hours and hours on end

I'm way late but you got a point. The two actions also have a neat dichotomy, the bond of souls bringing about power and the bond of hearts bringing about destruction.

Holy shit I never thought about that

Thats the only thing i dont understand abou this saga. So, basically a city from 2000 years in the future got teleported to the roman-viking age. Ok i get that and all the falling of the other empires because of that. What confuses me is one of the endings where Caim and the salt queen get teleported to japan breaking a dimension wall. So basically the world of drakengard is an alternative version of the normal world? When Caim and the dragon break into Tokyo they basically jumped foward in time

Once time traveling gets involved you can say goodbye to any logic or continuity, and may as well forget about trying to make sense of the plot. There is no point, as it is usually used to simply justify "we wanted to put cool shit into the game, but didn't know how to explain it in any meaningful way"

that's the "E" - "joke" ending in which they get teleported into the future, defeat the Salt Queen, and also the Dragon dies. The Dragon becomes a test subject, the Salt Queen unleashes a disease that when you get sick you meet with God, and you get two choices, become one of his warriors and subjugate yourself to his will, or decline his offer and turn to a salt statue and die. This thing people find incureable, they start developing android bodies in which they can put people's souls (Project Gestalt) and save the bodies not turning into stone, and after the disease has passed, people's souls would be returned to their bodies. Blah blah blah, The joke "E" edning is the continuation and spinoff series of NieR and then NieR Automata.

Shajirr it’s not necessarily time travel though, but more so multiverse theory

Err... no. You're mistaken. Drakengard's world isn't Earth. It's another world. You could argue it's a parallel world or timeline or whatever, but it's nothing like the real world. It has magic and the gods actively participate in the world's status... mostly by trying to destroy all of humanity. You're conflating the Ending E of Drakengard 1 where the Queen-Beast bends time and space after being attacked, causing Caim, Angelus and the Queen-Beast to be pulled into our world, leading to Nier's world. Being that the Queen-Beast is a Watcher, a servant of the gods (an angel, basically), it isn't surprising it has the ability to cross dimensions. Its death in Tokyo caused the White Chlorination Syndrome that plagued and killed humans turning them into salt (or turned them into monsters if they accepted the pact it forced them into) and Angelus' death lead to the discovery of magic, which came in the form of the Sealed Verses you use in Nier.

It makes Devil May Cry 2 look like Devil May Cry 5. One day, I hope this joke is funny and not depressing.

You are wrong.

No, I'm not, because I specifically said "I've ever seen." You don't get to dictate what I have and haven't seen.

Ryan P I just did. and are you telling me that this is the wiggliest you have EVER seen?

Reilly Celum Yes, because I mostly play good games with good animations.

Most likely When i first heard him say that Is when i knew the game had turned 100% evil. And everything from then on was amplified chaos .

I like games which have multiple endings because you can choose the ending you think is canonically right because they all could lead to something interesting I like the ending where Caims sister becomes a monster and invades earth would make for an interesting sequel

Same, she's fantastic.

Ah, Drakengard. One of my favorite PS2 classics. World ending fantasy flair with memorably fucked up characters. Where the "hero" has incestuous feelings for her sister & vice versa, those two other party members who one is a pedophile & the other a child eater. I still remembered I only managed to get Ending A,B,C & D. Never did managed to get that Ending E that led to Nier.

PolarPhantom Mona Marshall did a lot of voice work. Power Rangers and anime

SPL-316 and .hack :3

It's sexy, like god dragon sexy.

Lmao same here. A friend of the family gave it to my brother and I. I don’t think we got very far bc I really only remember the dynasty warrior combat and dragon sections.

yep, was considering to play the game...but after I hard about this from the Friendscast I just rush here as quickly as I can

I just fucking watched all cutcenes from Drakengard 1, Drakengard 2 and Drakengard 3. Fuck

CAW!!!

Wow its almost like they're from the same series.

@@user-gx4qj4kw4h I know...it's so strange

George Lucas: "It's like poetry. It rhymes."

@@user-gx4qj4kw4h I mean one wouldn't expect to find the exact same visuals in a fantasy world and a sci-fi post apocalypse one

@@geekyone7434 yeesh its been 3 years bud

This man should literally be a citation on the whole series in the *Plot* segment via Wikipedia.

Yo I know I’m a year late but good fucking LORD The World Ends with You has a FANTASTIC soundtrack.

"It's Berserkin' time" - Nuts

Ryan Paul Hell yeah!

Listen to this guy, few men can even aspire to be both hard and moe as fuck as this dude.

oh shit im feelin it

Enlightened Alcoholic same hope these are as good as pat says im optimistic

I'm glad this comment got voted to the top, couldn't remember which podcast episode Pat mentioned this channel in :/

Same. Pat mentioned it again today

There is fftactics in there too!

Ah, GameFAQs, what a cluster.

Nah Leonard wants to be inside them

You are not the only one I re watch clamps nier reviews all the time, his FF and kingdom hearts ones too.

Yo i was about to comment till i saw your comment. And you're absoultely right. Like...ew.

Which one?

Same! damn that final final Nier ending tho :'(

i think it wa 181 with super eyepatch wolf

Meek and Ashamed Zaibatsu pulls through again! I've finally got more excellent content to consume while taking a dump at work! And that's high praise! I only put on videos I intend to pay attention to completely and not just play in the background, while on the company commode!

I like Drakengard. I mean, I like its weird ass story. Maybe not the gameplay, but I do really like just about everything else!

Really late, but I like it. The gameplay maybe wasn’t great...but the weapon’s abilities made it interesting for me.

For half of the gameplay in this video, I was very drunk. The more you know

No don't play neir on shrooms, Play earthbound or toe jam and earl

Lana Rain Oh wow! Didn't expect to see you here, Lana! :) I saw your BlackBox NieR: Automata unboxing with the 2B Cosplay haha. I wish I had that figurine imo, if only I knew about this awesome series earlier I would have preordered the black box too. :/ Oh well xD

Oh god....I kinda want to try it.

Jesus :P I forgot how dark this game was, the music does a fantastic job of giving the game a twisted/depraved feel. Oddly enough I was severely depressed when I was playing this game as a teen, feels weird looking back on it. I never found all of the endings/understood all of the symbolism and backstory at the time too, so it's interesting to see what I missed :) I never played 2/3 or the Nier games either so i'm curious to see where the story goes.

im gonna riot if 2b dies at the end of automata. At least she is an android and her AI can get back up but i bet yoko taro is gonna make a fucked up shit where 2b is fucked beyond repair or where she can't get backed up. Fuck, im already rioting.

She died at the end of the demo so chances are high.
