    I love Grigori. His voice is so good and he's not overall evil. He just does what he was destined to do like the fallen Arisen before him. Also, big plus for having Mercedes as your "beloved". She's my favorite.

      Something that I appreciate about Dogma's world is that the way of the world is simply immutable: the Endless Chain goes on because it must, you cannot ascribe good nor evil to it as it is something that transcends everything and everyone. For all his power, the Great Dragon Grigori is nothing but a slave to the natural order, cursed to play out his role until he dies and is succeeded.
      Not even God is truly free, but a slave to the system just the same as the Dragon.

      @@arceus1385 Defeating the Seneschal doesn't end the cycle, it's part of it. The Seneschal you face at the end of a new game is Savan, the man from the introduction who defeated his Dragon and then the Seneschal. Not even plunging the Godsbane in your chest ends the cycle. At the end of a new game plus, the Seneschel is either your own character from the previous game if offline or another player's character that has become the Seneschal if online. And Savan retrieves the Godsbane from his own chest. He says the Godsbane is the only thing that can kill the Seneschal, but he doesn't say that's all that's required. The incumbent Seneschal must be killed by the new one. It's the only way for them to be released from immortality and is the reason for the Dragons and the Arisen, to cultivate the will of a new Seneschal to serve as the axis around which the universe and the eternal cycle will continue to turn.

Nothing wrong with that but Grigori does the same, after literally being the entire first and second act of the game's antagonist. He talks, even armchair philosophers and when you finally get to fight him he just puffs out his chest and waits for you to try.

    Along with that, allowing him to stand up tall and proudly as his wings spread to envelop the sky, blocking out the sun as his head is held high.

      The low to the ground or two limb version is usually used by movie and game designers to give them a more threatening appearance.
      And I cannot stress enough how big of a mistake that is.
      A dragon's design has always been so successful due to its representation of "pride", its grandiose stature and appearing as a insurmountable mountain.
      They are not supposed to be creepy, they are supposed to be imposing, yet carry themselves somewhat majestically.
      This is why Grigori is one of the best game dragons, despite games like Skyrim existing, who's "Dragons" are pretty forgettable despite being the central theme of the game.
      They even do the part correctly where a Dragon's breath attack is beyond what most magic can achieve, but also not being the Dragon's only option as in many older stories with dragons, they are usually adapt at spellcasting too, far outclassing any combat skills most humans would acquire in a lifetime.

      That's where you are wrong. The cycle is never ending, never breaking wheel. At least to the lore here are the outcomes:
      1. Accept the bargain of dragon - rule the land. New Arisen is chosen for same Dragon.
      2. Kill the dragon and challenge seneschal, but loose the fight - you are casted down from rift and reincarnated as new dragon.
      3. Kill the dragon amd defetead the seneschal - seneschal becomes the dragon, while you ascend the throne - ever waiting for another to break you free.
      No matter you do, if you choose to resist and fight you are bound to be part of the cycle as Arisen and the dragon, and as seneschal if you are deemed worthy, only to recycle the fate at some point.
      Only those who run and accept the dragon bargain are truly set free from cycle - fates irony, since they are not reincarneted either as dragons or new arisens. They cease to exist.

      Quando se derrota o senescal ele pede pra ser morto e liberto da maldição.
      Se o Arisen perder a batalha contra o senescal Arisen não morre pela espada godsbane ele simplesmente cai dos Céus em forma de dragão e outro ciclo se inicia .
      Quando o Arisen se torna o senescal ele se mata nos céus e caiu na terra junto de seu companheiro.

      As in the Duchess? Yeah, if you complete her sidequest she's automatically your beloved. However, there's a way around it: during the rescue quest, abuse the shit out of her. I spent about twenty minutes throwing her full-force into a wall, followed by a good ten minutes of flinging her into the cold water. She was *not* happy, and I managed to drain all of her affection points that way. Thus she wasn't my 'beloved' for this scene. This is a pro tip for all future Arisen who don't want that forced bullshit for your character but still want to 100% the game.

      It could be that the Dragon's voice is the same for all dragons. At least in the series this happens (regardless of how much of a dissapointment it was)
      However, Savan kills his dragon and doesnt fail in his fight for Seneschal, then when does grigori come? When does he fail to be Seneschal? Could it be that once a new Seneschal is selected the world "restarts" (since we can see Gran Soren and Cassardis completely untouched as Seneschal)?

      @mansifacio5458 Год назад +4

      I think it's very possible that Savan is the last "true" Arisen. I mean, the opening kinda makes it seem like Savan's confrontation with the dragon was a really long time ago, and considering that he's been Seneschal since, it's more than possible that Grigori is just that effective. I mean, Grigori, whenever he speaks to us seems pretty fed up with it all, which could mean that he's been the Dragon for multiple cycles now with there being no one to replace him. So once you take over, Grigori is the Dragon once more, because there was no one before you to replace him
