Drakengard 3 ps3 playtime8/10/2023 ![]() Add in the fact that you will also need to purchase health potions and possible power/defense potions, and money always seems to be in short supply. You are left then to upgrade one weapon after each mission and it can be really slow going. ![]() The big problem here is the money aspect, as you barely scrape up enough cash after each level to upgrade a single weapon or buy a new one. ![]() It can be a lot of fun to switch weapons mid combo and continue the hit streak with a new weapon.Įach weapon you find throughout the level or buy at the beginning of missions can be upgraded up to level 4, increasing the damage done with the weapon. Switching between the weapons during battle is incredibly simple and time is slow down during your selection. Each weapon provides a unique reason for you to use it, whether it is breaking strong defenses with the spear or getting in close and personal with the bracers. There are four different types that you will have at your disposal Swords, Spears, Combat Bracers, and Chakrams. As you progress through the different chapters, you will gain a new type of weapon to use. In the beginning of the game, you will start out with only a sword to use. This is actually a good thing, because the game quite simply cannot handle anymore than that, as there is a ton of slowdown when you are fighting enemies on screen while your dragon is firing down fire on the battlefield. The combat rarely becomes as crazy as say Dynasty Warriors, with usually only around 10 enemies on the screen at one time. During each chapter, you will find yourself running through completely Linear levels and fighting through groups of minions. The game is broken up into different chapters that you must fight your way through, with each chapter ending in a battle against on the five Intoners. It is a very teen humor type of story, with a lot of cuss words thrown about and various insults thrown about by Zero during battle, like the classic bit “Go home and suck on your mom’s teets.” The immaturity in the story actually works pretty well and the characters provide some good moments of humor, though sometimes it can go a bit too far as the disciples only seem to want to talk about their members and ways to get into the Intoner’s pants.īeyond the crazy story line and characters of the game, the rest of it is fairly straight forward and at times basic. Things are never taken very serious, as evident when your reborn dragon gets yelled at by Zero, causing him to basically piss himself. The story is one you might think would be rather serious from hearing the above paragraph, but it is actually the opposite. You are on a mission, with the help of the dragon Mikhail, to destroy your five sisters and stop them from uniting the lands. Now that these five Intoner sisters have taken out the Warlords, they have become worshiped by the people and that is where you step in as Intoner Zero. With the world going crazy with war, five Intoners have come down from the Heavens, defeated the Warlords, and created peace among the lands. Read on below to find out my full impressions of the game and whether it is worth it to venture forward into this world.ĭrakengard 3 is a prequel to the original game, taking place roughly 100 years before the events of the original game. The game also features a new developer, as Access Games has taken the helm over Cavia. The gameplay mechanics feel a bit dated and it feels odd that the game doesn’t provide better use of the 8 year old PS3, but there is still plenty of fun to be had in this package. In steps Drakengard 3 for the PlayStation 3, a game that for better or worse is firmly trenched in the past. It has been awhile since we last caught up with the Drakengard franchise, as the last game released back in 2006 for the PS2.
