The game is so shitty and horrendous to play that it plays you after you decide to tolerate it just to see where the story goes only to realize there is no real catharsis in any of the endings. Just like Eva and Berserk

@@weednose9415 I mean, you could say the mindlessness is the point. Killing thousands upon thousands of people, human, elves, goblins, children, giant flying demon babies, all of that isn't supposed to be fun. However, the game could be more streamlined. Animations could be more smooth, dubbing and music should be re-recorded (at least in English, the Japanese dub is kinda great already), and there could be a lot of touch-ups. Maybe even making the game actually fun.
Honestly, I love the idea Drakengard 2 is a direct sequel because it's so traditional in style that it makes the events of Drakengard 1 feel that much more insane by comparison.
I hope in my lifetime I will see a drakengard remake, better core gameplay, graphics obviously, more interactive scenes on each characters, and even I dont mind a total re write of the story as long as they can still show how dark metal this game is
tbh Drakengard 2 has metal moments... *like when caims appears, smiles and cuts five guards in one sweep* but that is basically Drakengard 1 rescuing Drakengard 2 ehehe
@samhainmars2686 Yoko Taro was brought in at the last minute to direct the CG cutscenes. So while he didn't write in Caim killing a bunch of guards, he did direct the way in which he did so: cutting them all in half with a single swing of his sword and smiling maniacally afterwards
The best way to describe DoD2 is: the actual introduction to DoD for those who missed out on DoD1's release, based on Ending A. (Fun fact: Yoko Taro did actually have some involvement in DoD2, serving as a mentor and second-opinion figure, and was responsible for the Caim/Angelus plotline) Kinda makes it hard to write it off as non-canon now. Still love all the Drakengard and NieR games.
Despite the hate for drakengard 2 I think it's still valid, it still keeps the biblical themes and just explores a different ending rather than just the nier route
Prefiero mil veces a Drakengard 1, es un buen ejemplo de fantasia oscura y se sale de la norma de la fantasia medieval Mientras que la secuela no es nada que no hayamos visto antes
DrakenGard 2 understandably was trying to tone down the darkness in the series, as the main goal of the series was always suppose to be about the bond between a dragon rider and his dragon, but the problem was they really nutered the edginess by to much. 3 in many drakengard fans feel is one of hte best as it found a good middle ground
DOD 2 doesn't have that "charm" of the first game I don't feel like i want to jump off a building (both emotionally from the story and literally because of the gameplay lol) when i play the second game
The only good bits of Drakengard 2 are the Caim and Angelus parts those were interesting well thought out rest of the game though...... Yeah.... Very accurate.
Everything developed by and Co-singed by the original author are cannon. The endings have different branch connections. Most leads to nothing (so far) B,C,D Branch A loosely leads to DoD2 (Not necessarily with the Novel retconning it to be its own conclusion to the drakengard verse) Branch E leads to Nier.
Drakengard 1 i prefered the story, tone, some of the music, gameplay in the air, the endings. Drakengard 2 i prefered the epic conclusion, most of the music, gameplay on the ground, the second two endings. Drakengard 3 i prefered the flow of the game in Route A, some of the music, some of the characters, the humor. Nier Replicant I prefered the story, characters, music, tone, the endings, the flow. Nier Automata I loved the gameplay, music, story, characters, endings, the epic conclusion. I didnt play Nier Reincarnation, if it comes to consoles I will.
He literally did though, he just wasn't the main guy. Also Accord acknowledges DOD2 in the Drakengard 10th Anniversary blu-ray, but it's described as a dead branch that has been struck from the record. So it's definitely canon just not the the timeline of NieR. Also if I'm not remembering wrong DOD1 is the only game directly connected to the NieR timeline, cause DOD3 is only connected to DOD1 through a novel not through the actual game itself.
As a fan, Drakengard collectively sucks ass gameplay and narrative wise. But 2 received undue hate, 3 is terrible and I don’t know how people applaud it. I guess it’s cause Yoko returned even though he was still involved with the production of 2 Terrible franchise all around though, I’ve never seen a game have three separate aesthetics, in three separate titles that are all technically unrelated to one another.

Accord is canon, everything is canon.
Nowe has 3 dads. He's also related to the dragon, its not an adoption thing. Oror adopted him... because plot...
He's right, you know.
Oh yeah.
This guy gets it.
Drakengard 2 is canon. Accord actually recorded the events of Drakengard 2 like she did with 1, 3, and the Nier games.
Everything is canon while at the same time it's not. It's like roads that lead to different places.
Caim deserves the Platinum remake treatment
Tbh not even platinum could save the game from is god-awful gameplay
Caim and Zero both!

This hits deep since I started with 2 first...
It’s honestly jarring how different each game is
Man, I really love seeing this edit of the Death Note Opening 2 with the cutscenes of Drakengard 1.
I fucking love how twisted, sick and incorrect is drakengard1 and how it drives you to brainrot aswell aauauauuafahdhjskwkj
Drakengard was so unique, twisted, dark and made me want more. Drakengard 2 had some interesting moments, but felt drab compared to the first.
Yes.

These 2 are some of the games that actually needs a remake, not masterpieces like ff7, re 3 and 4, silent hill 2, etc.
DoD 1 is the literal definiton of nature isekai with steroid.
That fact this is spitting facts is so true
everyone's going "DRAKENGARD 1 REMAKE/REMASTER" but like
...no...i wanna see what happens if taro is in charge of a 2 remake.......
(besides as much as i would love a dod1 remake we all know it'd prolly be censored to hell and back 😭😭😭)
I don't like drakengard 2 but they did manah's movesets beautifully 😂
Dod3: I am just a angry girl.
I really hope they remake Drakengard

I like drakengard 2
What a shame

Well, you're wrong
Aquí otro fan de drakengard 2, el único hispano xd
The music and gameplay seem cool, I'm not sure about the story though.
I'm new to the fandom is DoD2 canon to the timeline or is just a different route of the first (other words non canon)
Everything developed by and Co-singed by the original author are cannon.
The endings have different branch connections. Most leads to nothing (so far) B,C,D
Branch A loosely leads to DoD2
(Not necessarily with the Novel retconning it to be its own conclusion to the drakengard verse)
