Idk if this playthrough is missing loads of content but they only really went into the introductions of Leonard, Antioch, and Serre. Is there more interactions between these characters or is this it?
The end is fucked up
yup i'll check it out and also subbed. Good job mate
@Dr Katz all of them
I just read the funniest bit of trivia about this. "Caim and Furiae were respectively based around Guts from Berserk and Rei Ayanami from Neon Genesis Evangelion, with Caim being codenamed "Guts" during development"
Yikes
That.....makes a lot of sense.
watching this it's so obvious the dev team were going for "berserk lite"
drakengard1 feels more like berserk than berserk at times
Berserk inspired a lot of other works I think, I feel Dark Souls was also inspired by it (the armor at the cover similar to Guts' berserk armor).
Dude, thank you for this thorough coverage of the story. I'm on a quest to wholly understand Drakengard 1 and 3 in order to enrich my appreciation of NieR and NieR: Automata.
You haven't played Nier yet?
I haven't and probably won't _play_ it. I've _watched through_ it, seen all endings, and wiki'd a chunk of it, including the Kaine Grimoir Noir story and the timeline of how the world of NieR came to be. Sweet reads.
I've only wiki'd the basic premise of Drakengard and know of some of the endings - including the most important one for understanding NieR.
Fully understanding Drakengard's story will enrich my enjoyment of NieR in retrospect, which is why I phrased it like I did above.
At least you understand how the Nier world came as I still don't know how Nier has anything in relation to the Drakengard series. The only references I know is that Kaine looks like zero and has her Flower as a charm, Pig boss from Drakengard 2, Shades that have the seal symbols from sealing away Angelus and the randomly word dropped during the end ''Project Gestalt''.
NieR takes place in our world - "the real world." It's a continuation of Drakengard Ending E, where Caim and Angelus fight the final boss in Tokyo, Japan and the air force kills Caim and Angelus with an airstrike (In our year of 2003. Bear in mind that NieR takes place in the 3000s).
Our world doesn't have magic particles. The final boss from Drakengard - it brought foreign magic particles to our world, which diseased humans. The disease forced their minds into making a pact with some God of the Drakengard dimension: they would either die where they stood (they would turn into salt) or become a white monster (Legion) that served that God.
The military and Legion warred for years.
What we see in NieR, though, isn't that war. Humanity won that war long before NieR started. Humanity fucked themselves up in the process of winning that war, though (with the Gestalt Project), which is what we see in NieR: what's left of a humanity that crippled itself 1,300 or so years later.
This is also why there's a song in NieR called "Snow in Summer," which matches the opening sequence. That's not snow. That's salt from dead humans.
Caim's VA has a unique position of voicing the main character but having probably the fewest lines
Good thing he got the role of Inuart as well so he could have a more interesting and fruitful recording experience. He did a pretty good job with both, too!
"Hello, congrats, you've got the role of the main character"
"OMG really??"
"Yeah, just come by on sunday to voice your 2 lines"
"..."
Not really unique. JRPG characters often have a voice actor even when they're a mostly silent protagonist. In Persona 3, the main character only ever speaks when summoning his Persona (and is voiced for many names, if not all), but never actually speaks during the course of the story. And that's not even the best example of it happening, because that's way more dialogue than a silent protagonist usually gets. Sometimes they have no voice actor, but a lot of the time they have a voice actor to get "hurt" or "attack" dialogue (mostly just grunts, etc... think of Link in the Legend of Zelda series as just one example, though that's the least Japanese JRPG I can think of since it's high fantasy and light on the most commonly expected JRPG tropes).
Serph from DDS1 had even fewer I think.
@@Lucifronz Byleth in 3 House's doesn't talk in cutscenes but has voice acting in battle quotes for example.
"Hatred drives you but sadness fills your soul." Next time someone feels the need to be mean, just quote Angelus ~
i just can't explain with words how i felt when angelus says
"Is this the land of the gods?"'
the audio goes silent and just "Tokyo" written on the screen. i remember that when i first saw it i started sweating like crazy. still get goosebumps when i watch it
then there's the bells in the background giving an apocalyptic feeling to it, i just didn't know what to feel at that time
Anothers Worlds
@Yee Yee? Shit dude that's how I felt during 9/11, the event that inspired that ending.
I completely understand, it's an incredible indescribable feeling. I almost feel like the word "weight" is the closest I can get to describing it.
When does this happen? I want to feel it too
I didn't know what to feel either, that's why I felt nothing, I guess... kek
This game is worth it for Angelus alone. Her voice does such an amazing job for her character, it feels unreal.
(fun?) fact: she has the same voice actor as kyles mother from south park
Not to mention, as she said, she's also speaking for Caim. But it also comes to a point of where does that end and begin?
@@Zorb1s I guess it's a fun fact but the character is nowhere near the same
@@yourpalsammy9773 I'm pretty sure it's not too hard to figure out when she's speaking from her own point of view vs speaking for Caim or the both of them
@@wubilicious4158 I mean, with them being pact partners, it seems like the line blurs sometimes.
I love how the typical knight in shining armor saves the damsel in distress is completely skewed in drakengard to "oh... I just doomed an entire species... and killed my friends." Also the dialouge really feels like something out of a Shakespeare play.
Thanks yoko taro?
Don't forget that damsel is his sister. Who has incestuous feelings for him
It's too bad that Caim's pact took away his voice. I would've liked to hear his input about the batshit insane events that transpire later on in the game
He does say in one of the endings, "I am Caim" ;p
You can kind of infer what he says at points based on the party members' reactions, but yeah it would've been nice.
Though I do appreciate mute Caim's overtly aggressive and hostile behavior, it's...kind of funny? (maybe that's just my strange sense of humor.)
He gets voice back in one of the endings, and I really wish he would ramble on and on about how much he loves death and killing. Would be funny
Oh, I was so glad when the game tells he's mute because of the pact... His dubbing is _SOOO_ bad it made me cringe quite a lot in the few first lines he has at the beginning of the game... kek
That wasted huge Potential, but Nevertheless this shit at the end is unique.
Edit: nah, in someway it's very good portayed with caim.
People say that this games soundtrack is notable for being terrible for sounding chaotic. This ost is fire asf
It’s amazing and it fits the game perfectly.
They probably said the same thing about Stravinsky cuz this ost is amazing
I Fuckin’ love the ost. People just suck, don’t listen to people. Wish we could get another game like this instead of the Nier series. I crave dark, gritty and fucked up stories like this.
Think this might unironically aside from a few like evergrace and maybe automata at points be my favorite video game ost actually
The ps2 era really got crazy with it and I genuinely love experimental music like this
@@asneakylawngnome5792tell me about it i would love to see a drakengard 4 faaar after Ending A aka the lore continuation of Midgard I do miss this world and it’s F up bloody ness tone
Nier spin off we’re alright but there only sequels by a thread not being actual direct in the same world and they kinda written themselves into a corner like for a franchise that is a success because of what happened by its end it’s ACTUALLY F LAUGHABLE 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anyway hopefully when ever they do remake DG1 DG2 and remaster tweak fix DG3
We can get a DG4 but the way things are going it looks to me like yoko just doesn’t care about his original universe world he’s to much of a simp for his ending E alternate universe now
Now I know people might find this strange but I like to fan fic pretend berserk and AOT take place faaar after Ending A of DG1 lol 😂
Every race so far in this game; "Humans are fucking stupid! They're so bad in every way it's so sickening!"
The same people; "Let's make a pact with them."
It’s born out of resentment. These godlike being are bound to humanity, these lesser creatures. Mere worms, yet they scatter the globe.
No lie Arioch at 1:27:45 kinda got a giggle out of me despite the horrifying implications to what she was trying to do.
She IMEEDIATELY came swooning in like it was free real estate to eat as soon as she saw Seere potentially dead.
Oh lol Golem even shoo'd her away
People talk about how weird and dark the story is but man do they downplay how much everyone says, "Jesus fuck Caim please stop killing the people."
Well technically he can't or the world ends
@@codysingh2572 yeah, people kind of miss that the gameplay segments imply that some of the failures to protect seals/save people come from Caim being too bloodthirsty to focus on the objective at hand
“Did someone say murder?” - Caim’s inner thoughts
Caim: 2:48:15
Caim has no choice
2:6:30 "At last, the end is near" you mean your end is NieR? *gasp*
Bruh
Ha! So cheesy, Bless you XD
Why was the english dub for this game so good? So many good lines as well - "Do not battle so. Hell is here, no matter how much you struggle"... "For you who live on bloodlust, can this new world be a happy place?"
Even more impressive when you remember this game was released in 2003. Japanese publishers were still figuring out how to dub their RPGs, so the fact Drakengard stood the test of time is a testament to its quality.
Unfortunately the game was censored to an extent outside of the Japanese release
@@Stangrex
The fact that it was released over here at all is a miracle tbh. Same for Drakenguard 3 and original Nier.
Ending E brings back such confused, angry, and surprised emotions. I had worked so hard to gain all the weapons and finish all the different storylines just to see that all that they had gone through was in vain - Angelus and Caim impaled like that made me not touch the game for many years after, LOL.
I completely feel your pain. Trying to get the "perfect" ending in final fantasy x2 was the hardest gaming experience I've ever had. I think the developers need to rethink the definition of the word perfect. Hundreds of hours to get a non cinematic cutscene... I was crushed.
@BeAn BeAn There are lots of girl gamers all over the place. We are literally everywhere. O.o
@BeAn BeAn I don't play online games.
@BeAn BeAn Mate, no. Just no
@BeAn BeAn About as mature as I thought you'd be.
How about you properly Tag me next time, when you're gonna act like a typical brat.
I started watching this, then started to realize, *oh no, it's Yoko Taro's game*
“I am Caim”
Of all words, that’s the one the game chooses
I laughed at that!
@@LCukieras soon as Angelus said the pact was broken, I was on the edge of my seat wondering what Caim had to say after all that tragedy and killing. "I am Caim!" yeah, you sure are buddy.
The epilogue calling Caim and Angelus "the heroes who saved the world" becomes pretty ironic once you know how Nier is related to Drakengard.
On a related note, the new weapon stories in Replicant 1.22 suggest that Caim and Angelus were fighting the giant in Tokyo for four days, and that nobody knew where the order to fire on them came from.
Thank you for this. For anyone wondering, the weapon is Fool's Lament.
Four days? Where the hell did you get that from? The battle between Caim, Angelus, and the Grotesquerie Queen only lasted an hour.
@@lolrus5555 - They already said where the hell they got that from.
@@Kyran1996 yeah, _but he was wrong. It says the battle only lasted an hour._
@@lolrus5555 no it lasted four day, you only think an hour because you saw the time and didn’t notice that the dates where different
I guess the "I am Caim!" was intended to be a way for him to state the fact he is no longer tied to Angelus, and is finally fully himself again. But it came out terribly...still, I love this game!
my brother, can I get a time stamp for that beautiful line
@@gangganggang2219 2:42:59 if you still want it
I just today, about an hour ago, found out that NieR:Automata is a sequel to Nier, which is also an indirect sequel to Drakengard! So now here I am trying to get myself absolutely caught up. So thanks for this video in advance!
drakengard 3 is the prequel to 1
I hope you are enjoying your journey of going through the series' story. c:
What did you think of drakengard 1?
you got it kinda backward tho
drakengard 3 -> drakengard -> Nier -> Nier: Automata
Imagine having had played through this, finished through the last ending, as a kid in Japan back when the game was first released, when internet wasn't so wide-spread, and when plot-twists weren't mainstream.
That ending, a game which already was difficult to devour as it was, mixes up the world you live in, the scenery very close to you in a game, the game in that(this?) world of yours.
I think I would've remembered that feeling forever.
Too bad I wasn't one such person.
I was 11 when I played this.my uncle owned it.i played it in its entirety too.i had nightmares for a while.grew kinda paranoid and it altered my personality in a way.definitely too dark of a story for kids to play.
Yeah, I think this series is actually more popular in Japan too.
I'm so late to this comment but i did play it as a kid and got all the endings. This game really left an impression on me and i wish we had a remaster
@@cricker1998 I played it with my best friend. Got all the endings. SO many moments that blew our minds as kids. lol
@@acrophobiatml8800 I know right? I played it with my older brother and even to this day we sometimes listen to the OST
And I thought Nier Automata was depressing. This game is pure despair and madness, and such a bizzare and poetic spectacle. I regret not playing it when I had a PS2.
I thought my disc was broken when I was playing this because the music repeats itself like a broken musik disc.
But its actually how the soundrack sounds in the game.
Watched the entire thing. I have no way of playing this game so thank you for uploading this for us!
np, I know it's a pain playing through this game. When I first played through it I was bored most of the time and just wanted to quit.
+BuffMaister I know the gameplay sucks but I love the story and how messed up it is. Nier was even better. Kudos to you for getting every weapon to get all the endings.
Any plans on doing the same with Drakengard 2?
It's been up for a few days. ruclips.net/video/jMjKkGl18Nc/видео.html
You are a true hero.
Holy shit! The work you did putting this all together is INSANE! *clap* *clap* *clap*
You are a saint my man, I was expecting only cutscenes but you are adding like all the dialogue!
I love that nauseous feeling I get when I see the story of Yoko Taro games unfold. But damned if the story ain't crazy good
I just finished watching the whole thing... WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ENDING E, DUDE?!
Anti-climatic and assholish as fuck! You just beat the hardest boss ever, the craziest boss fight in gaming history, and your reward is getting blown up by the JSDF!! And just that! Not even a dramatic monologue! You're just *BOOM,* you're dead! AND THEN IMPALED IN THAT FUCKING COMMUNICATIONS TOWER!!
Jesus, it's like this game really hates Angelus and Caim to make them suffer as much as squeazibly possible!
@@MrDibara Apparently, that bullshit leads to the spin-off series.
@@MrEasyNah where not only Caim and Angelus are fucked, but now the human race is too...so yeah it's bullshit for the humans of that earth too
@@MrDibara it was kind of a joke ending meant to troll people who wasted their time upgrading every weapon in the game in order to unlock it. Then, ironically enough, it became canonized as the true ending years later, as these events lead into the Nier franchise.
@@MrDibara the whole game sends a hilariously true message to our real World. Caim & angelus where instruments to showcase this madness. Every Character represents something. Even the "angels" (watchers) are a different description for "human". So humans destroy themselfes. Also manah says: "stupid humans, don't know what they really need! Stupid, they all stupid, Salvation lies before them, but stupid people won't be loved!" It's a Message that our luck is before our eyes, but most of us move forward with Ego, greed, and want to fit in, instead of going for our higher real self & porpous. If you analyze the game you will find so much deepth combined with this Grotesque World that is literally a dark fantasy parody of our world state. Ending E showcased the superficial blinded view of our society. We see something different otherworldy, we don't want/kill it. Angelus & caim got killed, but nobody questioned they could have saved mankind & whole existence. That "target nutrilized, roger, and out!" From the jet guy fits it perfectely.
Peace!
Edit: 1:22:21 Angelus always verbally brings Abolution with her/his dialouges. Always superb, and a Message.
Anytime something bad happens Verdelet pulls out that “Om galleg Ni allifrey natillah” and it does nothing except at the very end XD
Poor Verdelet, he gets too much hate.
lots of drakengard 3 uploads can be found on youtube, but not many of 1 and 2! i know i greatly appreciate you going to the trouble of uploading both games. and at such a nice quality! and i must commend you for taking the time to edit out all all the "unnecessary" fighting and battles, and getting right to the cutscenes and dialogue im looking for. wonderful work!
Gameplay was pretty bland, but I was addicted to the story and the in-game speeches. It was so dark and I loved it. I really wish they would make a manga or anime or remake the game.
Kiriyama T there is an actuall manga for drakengard but it takes place before the first game. its available online but ive never found an english printed one..
Thanks for letting me know. It's too bad it's not in English.
actually gameplay got addicting though atlleast ps2 standards.
Kiriyama T Agree, especially 3 which is filled with humorous and interesting characters. They need to make this series follow the path of what platinum did to the latest game but combine the funny comedic references of 3 with the story of Nier and Nier 2 aka automata and drakengard 1 and 3. The gameplay in Automata help me bring back of how japanese games like that with a budget that is not as high like most western Triple A games can still be a better than them still
Surprisingly, this game is actually pretty innovative in how dark its story gets. It would be interesting to see if a modern day remake would still follow through on the original's feeling of despair. That being said, there is a kind of unique atmosphere in how dated it looks. Almost like its age actually makes the game feel even more grim and unsettling.
i tried watching cutscenes but i couldn't understand a thing so i tried with gameplay and i fell asleep. thanks for this dude!
I remember playing this as a kid. Didn't realize how fucked up the theme and story actually is. I just like hack and slash games so much now because of this game
With the success of Nier: A, I hope will we get to see more Drakengard and Nier games. I've been a long time fan, glad to see the series are starting to get noticed.
Don Dude there should be an hd remaster of Drakengard
I wish I knew about this series from the beginning!
The creator is thinking 2 more games and a porn.
@@Deadvenuz Wait, what was that last thing? A _porn?_ Yoko Taro is?
@@marialuke2116 yeah he wanted to make a porn.
I thought NieR had a crazy story, but holy fuck this is way an another level of craziness.
Btw. the way which NieR is connected with Drakengard 1 was very mind blowing for me.
That's Nier, but it doesn't have that much of a connection as your expecting. You have to read the stuff online about Project Gestalt.
Drakengard 3 > Drakengard 1 > Nier/Drakengard 2 (sequel but canon) > Nier 2 Automata
There's also manga about Drakengard, ''Drag-on Dragoon''. It's before Drakengard 1, and fucked up things happen in there. I had a link with the majority of the manga on them but lost it.
i love it every time when caim or vedelet kicks and pushes someone away when they talk bullshit or go insane. EVERY TIME!
My favorite is Manah slapping Seere away not once, but twice, and while dancing no less! Only in Drakengard!
Exactly! Only in Drakengard! You can't find it in other games! This is a limited edition, hurry and get it now! XD
I love it when a story's core is the deconstruction of concepts and people. I loved especially the deconstruction of Seere in his ending. It's the ultimate form of storytelling for me. To see the structured reality slowly crumble and see what comes of it...

after hours of failure getting to Growing Wings brutalized me. the death of mankind as the mutants rise followed by this discordant droning song filled with metaphors of nostalgia was a trip.
Its weird. I played through this like 2 years ago but almost completely forgot the storyline. All I really remember is the bat shit end. Strange how some games are memorable while others aren't at all.
Thank you for stitching this together, dude. Extremely helpful.
Were did you play it? I've been trying to find it for a long time
@@kriss007G it's on ps2
dat crazy fairy beetch tho... if i ever heard or saw anyone as toxic as that id just walk into the fire right then and there xD
Or throw _her_ in the fire, like Zero probably would.
@@Lucifronz Or punch her, like Zero did.
That being said, Leo's fairy partner tormented him by specifically choosing to look like a young boy. Toxic is putting it lightly.
@@WarriorKalia Huh... until now I always just thought of his fairy as an androgynous female, but looking at it they do lean more towards male than female.
I never saw anything that indicated it was a choice, though. That his fairy *chose* to look the way it did. I'd believe it, though, because it was a sadistic little fucker. Totally counter to what you'd expect of other fantasy fairies. Except maybe SMT, but even then they're more like selfish, childish brats rather than straight-up psychopaths.
Wow man, this requieres a lot of work. I remembered playing this game so many years ago when I was a kid. It reminds me of many old feelings, square Enix used to do a good work. Thanks for this, you will get all the views and likes you deserve, dont you worry.
Square didn't make the game though.
Well... I guess Yoko Taro likes a lot The End of Evangelion and Berserk.
I love Caim and Angelus. And the soundtrack is incredible, so beautiful
That song in ending B is amazing. Always love dark songs.
*spoilers*
So the other endings are basically "choose the way your world will be destroyed", you got the Angels with Furiae, the Dragons with Angelus and the giant baby golems.
ok that makes more sense, i was wondering why the fuk the game ended like 5 times lol
at least A was pleasant.
Good point. Humanity is seen as a mistake by the gods anyway, so the dragons are probably the "good guys" all things considered, especially since humanity would've destroyed the world. Even Caim is not a good guy.
It looks like more that all this "angels" are just furiae's. That is the most braindfuck part for me. Just 100 of this things, For no reason, in an instant, this nihilistic despiar.
The first game that breaks the stereotype of heroes for me.
I watch this at least once every year, along with Drakengard 3. I desperately want a Drakengard 4.
Uhm... Nier Replicant and Nier Automata?
@@Ingisen and that nier mobile game, it takes place after automata
@@Ingisen well since OP said drakengard I'm assuming he meant a drakengard 4 in the drakengard universe and not in the nier universe. Not hard to understand
Verdelet
Please! Even the empire's soldier deserve our mercy!
Later
Caim, Can you scatter their army?
A religious zealot whose hypocritical nature is drawn out the more his situation grows dire.
Sounds way too akin to real life in most cases.
It's just scattering, not yet killing em
Granted, that was the mission where he said he felt rage so he can't speak sermons as a priest.
But yeah Verdelet is a big hypocrite and a coward.
To be fair they are trying to end the world
um, this is incredible
thank you
Deep voice Manah has the same voice actor as Cosmo from the Fairly Odd Parents
And Jorgen von Strangle.
Judging by Manah’s life Cosmo could have been her Fairy Odd Parent. Maybe he got wish wrong and it lead to this. Jk jk.
alright he's got his voice back, let's see what cool lines this psychopath can think of
"I am Caim"
Goddamit Caim.
43:44, they really hint at Furiaes feelings for Caim throughout the game
@Jay Bee wait, what? is not they are blood related?
@@alexamderhamiltom5238 They are blood related
@@alexamderhamiltom5238 super late but yeah, that's essentially why she kills herself in ending D-- she's supposed to be this ultra pure and virtuous goddess, but she has sinful incestuous feelings for her brother, that combined with the obvious disgust Caine shows when he realizes how she feels makes her guilty enough to renounce her divinity and commit suicide.
Yoko Taro said in an interview that he absolutely hates the stereotype of the passive, innocent maiden so this is his way of subverting that.
@@hollylucianta6711read the manga. Plays before the scenario of the Game. With the Knowledge of that & the Game I came to the conclusion her mutant angel Form reflects her true Character.
This must have been a beast to edit, but I really appreciate you skipping through a lot of the slaughter. Games fun to play, but not watch. So skipping all those fights must have been hard, but thanks again man you’re awesome. My ps2 copy was destroyed during my cousins house fire. Kills me.
Angelus is the true MVP here. Talking Everythime the absolute truth, with/and absolute master wise quotes.
“Do you go to save lives or to take them?”
Holy shit this dude has the squeakiest pants
Great job putting all of this together, even the little in-game dialoges that are really nice to have
Never played any of the games. Premise and setting sounded amazing but the first game looks quite repetitive.
Imagine a remake where mechanics and elements are touched up. Basically expanding on things and improving the overall experience. Maybe another game altogether rather than an enhanced remake.
Like the Nier Replicant treatment?
@@randomguy6679 Yes please! I really hope Taro, SE and Co realizes just how much momentum they have now. With Nier Automata's success, plus Replicant Remaster, they have public interest, money and technology on their hands.
I forgot how annoying the faeries are in this game. It’s like everything else in the story is great, but the second Leonard’s pact partner starts talking I gotta mute the TV.
Anyway great job with this. I think everyone who watches it appreciates that you edited in all the in game dialogue scene too and not just the cutscenes by themselves, as it really captures the full story.
I played this game for such a long time, today i was thinking about it and after this video i need to play it again. God bless that i still have the Playstation 2 and both of the Game's . Muhahaha.
Thanks for putting in so much work, friend.
that scene between Inuart and the Watchers feels like it was referenced to again in Nier automata between 9s and Adam
You mean where manah kills caims sister?
Imagine being Caim's voice actor and having to read just a couple voice lines...
Must be a sad gig.
Having played this game to completion recently, it can't be understated just how good the game is in contrast to just how Not Fun it is. The story is a grand tragedy that spans time and space where nothing good happens to anyone and the only kind of silver lining is that humanity is doomed slightly less so in Endings A, D, and very technically speaking E (modern day is doomed, Midgard is fine I think.)
But the gameplay requires you to turn your brain off completely. I don't mean that like you just ignore any faults and just go through with it with no nitpicking, I mean you have to enter an almost meditative state to properly play this. There is little to no strategy. All you can do is kill. Trying to do something else other than killing someone every minute will result in you dying. You become Caim, killing everyone not because you want to, but because it's all you can do.
I think it's the perfect playstyle for the end of the world(s).
"what would you do if there was a child right in front of you?" 3:00:54
Nero: "kills him"
You deserve good things in your life for making this.
And so the Nier begins...
Watched the whole thing by the way and was very enjoyable :)
Yeah... the White Chlorination Syndrome...
I'd have no way to be able to play this or really the patience to watch a full playthrough of it
You're the best for making this, and even trimming the filler out while still keeping dialogue and important parts in
the only thing i didnt like about this game is that we get cutscenes of Caim with his army friends but in actual gameplay we get no fucking assistance whatsoever and the extra characters it would have been nice to see them with A.I control fighting alongside us.
Watching this fully make me realise, this is EoE and Berserk mixed together
I name all my Dark Souls saves after characters in the game; my Elden Ring save is named after Furiae
This is the kind of video game showcase I've been hunting for. Show the story, give the spotlight to important fights, no dialog, just give me the dang story so I don't have to play it myself. 10/10, keep up the good work.
I love how you still show the dialog and skip to the important parts of te missions A+ on this!
I love the music so much. It reminds me a lot of Demon's Souls and Devil May Cry
The implications of Furiae's incestuous feelings towards her brother is interesting. Even implying that Inuart suspects it, and Caim might even suspect it himself and both keep themselves in denial of it, as suggested by Angelus. Part of me also wonders if he may also possibly feel the same way.
No, Caim was disgusted by the fact. That is why Furiae took her own life.
@foolsaccord dunno about that. Certain choices of language from Caim's own pact partner seems a little weird. In ending B, Angelus says "in the end, the goddess gave her love to *no* man. Not to Inuart, not to you..."
That language use is strange. To use the "goddess' love" in a statement like that, like it was some kind of competitive rivalry for, to me at least, implies something more. I think that his look could've been a look of feeling ashamed in both himself and his own desires, with Furiae heartbroken that he wouldn't embrace her and accept it like it wasn't something to be ashamed of. There's some other dialogue as well that, to me, further implies it.
This is just how I'm interpreting with my experience, both watching this and having played to completion in my mid teens.
This game was a mind fuck for a mind that young. XD
@@yourpalsammy9773but thats not the only reason she stabbed herself, it was also that manah made clear to everyone she hates being a goddess. Everyone remembers the incest thing but not that shes also a goddess and "renounces" it. But since were talking abt incest
There are many angles to see that from but for what its worth, "drakengard judgement" had a "caim is overprotective of furiae to the point that shes scared of him, as he killed some guy who was called to do some sort of ceremony on her and when caim approached to hug her she said "dont touch me" (as a sort of call back to "dont look at me"). After that she lets go her servants possibly because shes afraid caim will murder them. It was written by drakengard co writer, and i do think it makes sense, even more so than "furiae wants to jump his bones and thats about it".
Manah's other references to dirt and being dirty imply that Furiae also detests sexual feelings altogether and even if Caim would attempt to embrace her like she wanted shed probably try to run away, since she became a goddess possibly so that she would never have to have relations with men. Shes something like Leonard in that regard actually
Lol this is a STRANGE game,[ i just reached the 2 hr mark boss]; watching this since I finished NieR yesterday, appreciate the uploads cause those 30 minute videos i'm positive would leave me confused
[after that boss oops]
I don't think you will find any connection between the series.
Yeah but it was nice to have some context to the ending that it follows, but Nier looks the better game of the two lol
There are connections between the series, actually. Grimoire Nier (a 90 something page book only written for Japan) outlines more of the backstory of Nier and its connection with Drakengard and Drakengard 3. A little research on the internet and you can put pieces together.
Apt that the Ending that sparked Nier was "E". The Extra ending that's the End of Drakengard, but the Eve of Nier. The start to Everything ahead.
...
Also a loving nod to Evangelion lol
Thank you for playing!
Set the quality to 240p to get the true graphics experience
This game is Multi bad end.
The slogan is
The happy ending does not exist.
3:30:49 The reason Tokyo Tower is red.
Depending on how you look at it, the world only ends with D.
fun fact: the VA for Angelus is the same voice as Shelia Broflovski from South Park
Weeeeeeelllllllll
Bro thanks for these videos man. I can experience this story without having to go through all the square mashing XD
I came here following Two Best Friends Nier LP and owning Nier Automata myself....loved the lore and the setting and music and all that. Figured I'd fill out my Drakengard knowledge. Thanks!!!!
Haven't seen a magic/IRL universe crossover (Drak->Nier) go so horribly wrong since Aura Battle Dunbine when they found out the weapons systems were like doomsday level caliber when they crossed over to our universe.
No matter how much i try to remain serious, when the man voice takes over and goes Lalalalalala i crack
This game, specifically the first one of the series, is on my list of top 10 favorites. I love the bond between Caim and Angelus. I love how Angelus becomes more powerful as the story progresses. Her chaos power was so incredibly badass. I want a remake of this game so bad. Just this one. 😩
One of the best games/series ever made! Loved this Guantlet, Dark Alliance and Dynasty Warriors on ps2

when the game is too hard and you activate "slow motion"
lol, I had to do this with some games. Catherine comes to mind. Sometimes you just can't react fast enough so you have to pause the game.
That part is a bitch to play if you don't cheese yourself through it. Believe me, make a mistake on that part and you're dead/you have to to it all over again. I must've done it about 150 times, still not done it. The fact that you have to memorize it all is the worst. It's like Drakengard 3's ending D, but not as hard. Drakengard 3's ending D is notorious for being Yoko Taro's way of fucking with the player.
Just started watching this and I'm enjoying it so far! Completely forgot the story in Drakengard 1 and 2 since they came out a long time ago back in the PS2 era. Whenever I finish this, I'll definitely move on to your Drakengard 2 video!
Thank you for this. I wish to get a grasp of DG1 and 2. Planning on playing Nier, DG3 and then Nier Automata.
Beat them yet?
@@M0rshu1 Yep a long time ago, also the recent remake of Nier Replicant. Easily on my top game lore
@@teglesifer atta boi me too i got all endings awesome fucken games
LOVED this game but it also really fucked me up with all its cruel endings. The whole Drakengard/Nier saga is brilliant. Unpopular opinion: Much better and even harder than Dark Souls etc. beating the game + seeing every(!) ending.. The very last one broke my heart.
"...to protect harmony..."
Protect? Harmony?
If there were Harmony then the two forces would not be at war.
And when there is harmony, there is no need for protection.
"There was a time when we were once one, but now due to the wickedness of mankind God has dispersed us." - The Symposium
First came Chaos
Then broad bosomed Earth
The everlasting seat of all that is
Then Love
Therefore, after Chaos
The Earth and Love
These two came into Being
No reason to use use Reason and Logic and not think more critically about absurd and untrue statements is there.
"You cannot harmonize that which disagrees."
Which is said before that that anything that tries to agree while it disagrees is not Harmony.
So if anything all that is being protected is humanity's last hope. A light in a very dark world.
What? Im confused
I'm planning on tackling the full Nier series and I want to play every game bar Drakengard 1 & 2. So watching them like this is a decent compromise imo. Thx for vid
3:08:32
Best moment of the game. Fuck that fairy!!!
I can't....I don't...what in the...
First off, thank you for uploading this. I don't think I would have played any further thinking about it. Secondly, that ending. Sure it's kind of funny, but it's just...why? Ugh. My journey in this series is not over though.
Is there a Yoko Taro game in which the 'hero' doesn't slaughter children?
As Seree was snatched and flown away I got an advert for deliveroo and I thought that was pretty neat
This is where it all began...... Im so happy I played everything and not losing any easter egg sightings in D2 D3, NR, NA thank you Yoko Taro for everything.
Berserk and texholyze all in one. Even today this game still blow my mind there nothing like it. I can sleep in piece with this game
