It looks like I finally got some of my wish granted-ish.
Look at the bottom left of this Famitsu scan:

So SQEX have announced a HD game and plan to release it in the same year they've announced it? Kudos.
That means the following are coming to PS3 this year from SQEX Japan:
- FFXIV A Realm Reborn: Summer 2013
- FFXIII Lightning Returns : Fall 2013
- KH 1.5 HD ReMIX: Fall 2013
- Drakengard 3: 2013
Not a bad. Hopefully, FF Versus XIII may fit in there or release in Spring 2014.
Here's more:

I was hoping to see a prequel with Caim and Angelus in it but I guess we can't have everything in life, I guess... :heh:

^ Nope no Caim and Angelus but some chick with a flower eye, She looks pretty cool but I'm mainly interested in IF ITS COMING TO MURICA!
Honestly if Versus comes out, it will be for the Ps4, same with Last Guardian.

Drakengard's always had great ideas, but rather poor execution. ( in both story and gameplay )
Nevertheless, it's still one of my favourite crapsack fantasy setting, with good design and nice music.

They've suffered enough. ;-;
I just hope the 3rd series doesn't crap all over Nowe, assuming it's still in a similar timeline.
Suffering, despair and crazy gods may be an everyday occurence in Drakengardverse, but Drakengard's already ruined one couple's love. Keep away from the other!
Who needs Versus if you can have Drakengard 3...okay that was a joke but damn if Drakengard with Nier music composer doesn't make my day...

That's definitely true... after all the crap they've been through in the first game these two really deserve their rest.
Although, having them being mentioned is all good to me even if they're not shown.
Tbh, I'd rather see anyone than Nowe... To me, he was probably the only character to irk me so much to begin with. Hell, I'd even favor that emo Inuart over him any day :heh:

Now there's one series I never thought I'd see again. The main forces of the Drakengard and Nier team are back too. Different dev though, hopefully it's more batshit al'a DK1 and less whatever that was DK2. :p
From Duckroll at NeoGAF:
Producer: Takamasa Shiba
Creative Director and Scenario: Yoko Taro
Character Design: Kimihiko Fujisaki
Music Director: Keiichi Okabe
Developer: Access Games
Publisher: Square Enix
- Ground combat missions and dragon aerial combat confirmed
- High speed action
- Zero uses a sword
Some more info:
The Utautai (Songstress) are people who exhibit the ability to manipulate magic using songs. The main missions in the game take place on the ground, and the power of the power of the player increases when exposed to blood splatter. Sounds like a M rated game like the previous ones.
The game sure sounds like a hard M-rated game. Blood apparently remains on character clothing and skin (ties in with gameplay too I guess), Zero is a liberal minded woman who is open to sexual relations with multiple partners, the visual themes in the game appear to be "erotic" and "bloodstained", etc.
Scans featuring great artwork as expected of Kimihiko:

Official site (http://www.jp.square-enix.com/dod3/) up.
Dunno about anyone else, but One really looks like Manah to me.
EDIT: Yeah this definitely looks like Drakengard game after viewing the screens, empty environments, lackluster in game models, and texture all in all. Barely better than Nier really. lol Still very interested though.
Hopefully the game comes across better in motion.

She could be a Manah clone made by the Watchers? or maybe Manah's or Nowe daughter? (if they ever end up with one another after Drakengard 2 or survive after the 3rd ending)
I get the feeling "Growing wings" is going to be still the main theme song of the game... at least that's what I got after hearing the song at the official site.
I hope I can somehow play as Caim or as the other playable characters from Drakengard 1, but it's more than likely they're going to become DLC if they'll be included... *sigh*
nice to see Drakengard 3. i've played some 1 and 2 back in the days, but never really
finish the games. the 3rd one gotten me interested with a female lead.
the graphic does looks a little lackluster from the screenshots. i hope they polished it some
before the game's out. looking forward to some more news. and i see some
blood...i like it bloody like 1. 1 was pretty cool.

she's probably manah and nowe's daughter just from the fact she kind of looks like a long haired manah and the sword she drawn with looks a lot like nowe's first sword in 2

so the dragons went from red to blue to white, I have to say I was not expecting the next dragon to be white

Translation:
- Zero's partner dragon name is Mikhail
- The game takes place before the first game, and in this time there is still no pact system
- Utautai has a mysterious body where the flower in their right eye that keeps growing
- The meaning in Zero and One's name is because they are sisters and to recognize their order
- For the battle, the player will be accompanied by an ally and they can attack and heal

So... I'm not sure if what I read on the site was true, but you get to pick who you want to have sexual intercourse with... (One thing is for sure... I'm not picking the last one) http://gematsu.com/2013/05/drakengard-3-apostle-companions-detailed
It doesn't tell how it's going to benefit the MC in battle, but I'm guessing they might give the player a good fapping session :heh:

Yep, the buxom blonde is called Five. She's an Utatai sister.
And yes she's an antagonist because I believe ZERO's goal is to kill all the other Utatai sisters... with perhaps the exception of ONE... although I'm not sure.

So would this make Zero a Villain Protagonist? Kinda like Caim except the guys Zero's fighting aren't necessary worse than her.

Seems like it, because they say that Zero's personality is that a of lazy person mixed with a very violent nature.... kinda like a fat drunk wife-beater but in the form of a woman and much hotter.
Hell, it's the Drag-on Dragoon (Drakengard) series, of course it's gonna be fucked up, it's they're trademark.
The Japanese version of Drakengard, Drag-On Dragoon, featured such taboo plot points as incest and pedophilia.
However, this was toned down or outright removed from American version, but not completely (Angelus: Because you are brother and sister? What manner of excuse is that?).
The Japanese version of the game featured several very adult oriented themes, and many characters had more than questionable sexual orientations and/or perversion.
Leonard is actually a pedophile, and Furiae feels sexual desire for her brother.
Arioch, who has lost her womb from her pact and gone mad, enjoys killing and eating children.
While all of this isn't reflected in the actual game play, it is inside cut scenes and conversations between characters.
Most of these were removed in the American version of the game, making certain cut scenes very difficult to understand. For example, when partly possessed by "The Watchers", Furiae chooses to kill herself, rather than reveal her feelings for her brother, but the censorship makes the reasons for her actions very unclear.

Drakengard 2 is like the kiddie version but with better mechanics... slightly better.

After Drakengard 3 on the PS3... cannot wait to see what they'll do on the PS4. I hope they go back to something NIER-related... or continue with the Drakengard series... hell, the PS4 could handle lots of enemies on screen and do it beautifully.

I guess anyone knows at this point that the video game called NIER is also related to the Drag-on Dragoon (Drakengard) series... and NIER... well, "NIER Replicant" (the japanese version and true version IMO) is just as screwed-up as Drag-on Dragoon.
In Nier Replicant, the younger incarnation of Nier is the main character. He is brother to Yonah, and is searching for a cure for the disease she suffers from, the Black Scrawl virus.
Nier is a teenage boy whose parents died some years ago. He lives with his sister Yonah in their parents' former house, and takes odd jobs from others in the village for money to take care of them both.
In the story "Red and Black" from Grimoire Nier, it is revealed that at the age of 15 he was coerced into an implied homosexual relationship with a man in Seafront, in exchange for money to help care for Yonah. He despised the man, and when he later joined an expedition to kill Shades, which by coincidence the man had joined as well, it is implied that during the battle Nier took the opportunity to kill the man. It was this event that made Nier unsure of the distinction between humans and Shades, as he found that killing them "felt the same".
__________________________________
As for the time gap between DoD 1 & DoD 3, well, apparently, DoD 3 is a prequel that happened way before the events in DoD 1.

Knowing this is DoD, there are a lot of possibilities to explain why is that.
But, base on the information disclosed to us so far in the manga....
Unless One is a hermaphrodite, he most certainly has a body of a man at this point.
BTW, One is bodily young as he was shown in DoD3 art, yet he's old enough to have a grandchild in the manga.

How do we know that he or she has a body of a man? I don't think we even know his or her age yet. Lol maybe it's just a very young female that haven't matured enough yet, thus why her torso looks like a male's lol.
Here's an in-game screenshot of One. You can definitely see that her torso definitely doesn't look male. http://www.4gamer.net/games/207/G020792/20130626019/SS/005.jpg

We get to see One's upper body in the manga, which makes things pretty clear.
Also, One clearly does not age. Even in DoD3, Five, who is the youngest among th sisters, is physically older than One.

My comment (http://www.siliconera.com/2013/07/01/drakengard-3s-first-trailer-shows-off-gory-gameplay-footage/#comment-948194702) on the Siliconera article, "Drakengard 3′s First Trailer Shows Off Gory Gameplay Footage," regarding this video:
Zero's voice actress, Maaya Uchida (age 23) is a young, super cute actress (Hiroyo Hakase in Unofficial Sentai Akibaranger) and voice actress, best known for doing young female roles in anime (e.g., Rikka Takanashi in Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai; Mao Amatsuka in GJ-bu; Rei Kuroki in Vividred Operation; Frenda Seivelun in Toaru Majutsu no Index and Toaru Kagaku no Railgun S; Rea Sanka in Sankarea).
Uchida shows off her range here doing the voice of Zero, whose voice appears to be much lower and deeper than Uchida's natural speaking voice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vor-tJZjrM
Versatile veteran voice actress Rie Tanaka (age 34) (Neptune/Purple Heart in the Neptunia game and anime series; Morrigan Aensland in Marvel vs Capcom 3 and Project X Zone; Kan-E-Senna and Garuda in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn; Emina Hanaharu in Final Fantasy Type-0; Mitsuru Kirijō in Persona 3 and Persona 4 Arena; Sakuya Haibara in Fatal Frame 4; Karen Erra in Phantasy Star Universe; Karen Erra and Helga Neumann in Phantasy Star Portable; Maribell Crois in The Legend of Heroes: Ao no Kiseki; Ciel in Rockman Zero/Mega Man Zero; Sylphie and Ki in Namco x Capcom; AC-130 FCO {Fire Control Officer} in the Japanese dub of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3; etc.) lends her voice to One.
Young voice actress Nao Tōyama (age 21) (e.g., Mizuki Kawashima in THE iDOLM@STER CINDERELLA MASTER; Noah in Eureka 7; Shiori Terashima in Zenki Sesshou Symphogear; Margot Knight in Kyoukai Senjou no Horizon I ⅈ Kanon Nakagawa in The World God Only Knows anime series) voices Mikhail.
Seasoned veteran voice actors Mitsuki Saiga (age 40) voices Dito (another one of her numerous male bishounen/biseinen/ikemen roles), Kazuhiko Inoue (age 59) voices Decad, Chafūrin (age 51) voices Octa, and Ryōtarō Okiayu (age 43) voices Cent.
The CG look gorgeous but I know people will aim for the in-game graphics with heavy weaponry. Don't care about graphics myself as long as gameplay and atmosphere is on the level.

In the first place, no one should be expecting good gameplay from Drakengard.

If Nier is anything to go by, at least it'll have better gameplay than either of the two Drakengards. I still wouldn't expect the game to look particularly good though - Cavia and ex-Cavia aren't exactly known for that. The sound design should be excellent though.

Maybe she doesn't start with it - I wouldn't expect major spoilers in a trailer. Caim was able to talk at the beginning of Drakengard after all.
Am...I the only person who is completely and utterly unimpressed by this? :heh: It doesn't really look that interesting to me in the least, but I saw people absolutely losing their shit about it earlier.
Then again, I played about ten minutes of the original Drakengard before giving up and deciding that no story was worth sitting through gameplay that god-awful, so...
Drakengard 1 and 2 are meant to be read about, not played. I can't wait 'til Drakengard 3 comes out!
Nier was genuinely fascinating.

Cool. I've always expected this, but there's no guarantee given Square Enix's difficulties lately.

Wonder if Caim ore Nowe are related to Zero.
If there's any connection, it's more likely with Furiae rather than Caim or Nowe.
Caim was nothing special as an human being, he simply had the 'luck' that his sister got chosen by the lottery of the 'Goddess Seal.'
And Nowe was... unnatural, so I highly doubt he has any connection of sorts. :heh:

That's one of the best things. He's not special but he ends up saving the world, growing a close relationship with one of the most powerful dragons and becomes super powerful.
Compared to someone who gets handed special stuff, he wins.

Drakengard 3 got positive reviews in Dengeki
Here’s the summary about their review:
- The Scenario is the highest level of the series, it can bring some laughter and tears.
- Some “certain scenes” makes you want to scream up (TL note: maybe it’s a twist scene)
- The camera is a little disappointing
- It is easy to play, but the action is more exhilarating than the previous works
- Characters speak non-stop
- Completing a stage will takes a little longer time than DOD and DOD2
- It takes an average 40 hours to finish the game and 100+ hours to perfect things up
- The game music is definitely a gem and masterpiece
Overall:
It brings back memories of the previous works (DOD, DOD2, and Nier), but it is really improved.

- Completing a stage will takes a little longer time than DOD and DOD2
Ugh. I don't know about anyone else but DOD stages have always been one of the worst parts of the series due how long there and fact most of time your just doing same thing. If there more variety beyond "kill everything in bland barren landscape!". I can only this has been improved somewhat.
Overall:

It seems there are several endings in the game (some people have cleared the game).
Apparently, you only need around 15 hours to get the A ending. And it seems one need to see all of them in order to actually understand the whole ending of the story, so I assume those endings are mutually related.
Of course, I can't confirm this though since I'm still waiting for my copy ;_;

KleenexGhost
2013-12-19, 22:18
The only complaint I have so far is that they don't go very far into the sisters and their relationships with Zero and one another. Yes, we get insight due to the dialogue during the boss battles. Like Four's for example. But with the short stories we've been getting for the sisters over the previous weeks how much we actually get in the game is actually disappointing. Granted I haven't seen all of the game, only through the first two chapters (Five & Four). So there might be more when it comes to Three and Two. I'm expecting One to get a good amount of development.
Even the amount of screen time they get is sad. After the opening, which is great and gets you pumped up to see more of them and have them interact more with Zero, all you see of them afterwards is what you get when you fight them as bosses. :(
I just wish we could have gotten more of them. Developed them more on screen. They all had interesting back-stories, Four being my personal favorite :D, and not all of them feel the same way towards on how to deal with Zero. Now I did hear we get more with the different paths and endings but to what degree I don't know.

Emi Evans did not participate in DoD3. So it is not her who did the last boss theme.
And the ending credit is really not well organized to find who did who.
Aoi and Onitsuka are only stated of only singing their respective theme song in the credit...
So who sand the last boss music and the arrangement for Tsukiru anyway?

DAMN IT HAHAHAHAHA.
I got baited into watching a playthrough of this by a combination of:
CG movie
Character design
Promise of glorious amount of blood
And people keep saying the girls are all whores
What I got after like 20 minutes of gameplay including intro:
Awesome CG movie
Decent combat system, Utautai (Rape) Mode is fun I guess
Somewhat lackluster in game background art/QC; was ok still at the castle, but at the ... swamp place right after the first prologue was looking pretty meh, though I heard this is not actually SE but completely outsourced or something? There are parts where the character's literally float-walking and feet very obvious not even near the ground
Somewhat perverse sense of humor; baby dragon penis, baby dragon peeing (lots of it), and baby dragon trolling
Extremely awesome Uchida Maaya voice acting (her best ever imo)
Interesting combat dialogues
Very derp English verse (+1 point for "'thirstful' whore" and -1 for pretty much making up things with known axioms)
Honestly, I'd keep watching this just for Uchida Maaya cause I would never get to hear this side of her voice in anime, but that nicovideo just sealed the deal for me (though I'm more curious about the horse http://i.imgur.com/EeK7xd1.png).
Anyway, is DG3's story stand alone? If not, is there like a 3-sentence-ish (approx.) summary for the previous ones to get me up to speed? Are the web novels worth reading? Sorry if this have been brought up in the previous posts I might've missed 'em.

2013-12-24, 19:54
Yes, this game is out sourced. Yokotaro's under-resourced company does not have the power to develop the whole thing themselves, and we know we can't expect Square to help them.
The company the game out-sourced to is... not good. As far as I know, almost all of that company's game has terrible loading problem, and really really bad at optimizing the game.
DoD3 ties into DoD1 related franchise. Though a summary would be hard....
I also recommend reading the on line novel too, and you'll understand what Octa is doing with the horse...

Or they can, you know, make our main female in a muscular older man or with personality entirely different. Special treat for the westerners. Yes, Nier is still a wound I won't forget, don't judge me.

What.. are you talking about....
If they changed Zero in any way I'd be pissed. Yes, I'll judge you because everyone seem to think that just because I have a picky selection of female protags that I never want a game to have a female protag. I don't mean to look like I hate female protags, its just there aren't that many GOOD ones.
I wonna know if anything links to Caim or Angelus because they are my favorite drakenguard characters so far, Zero might easily take that place tho.
What.. are you talking about....
Hmm.. clearly a misunderstanding... :eyebrow:
I was talking about the Nier thingy. Two versions, you know? We got the muscle man and they got the anime bishie. I'm just joking about changing Zero into muscle girl or something similar like that for us westerners. Not that I want that mind you. I love Zero the way she is.

Just to point out, the international version of Kuroi Uta is performed by Emi Evans instead of Aoi Eru.
Why.. the fuck are they giving her Caim's outfit? Are they trying to Lightningize Zero? Please god no...
They have outfit from almost every important PC characters in the series for Zero.
Mosr are just for show, but Caim and Eris' outfit are absolutely great.
The 5% damage boost from caim's outfit is extremely helpful on money time attack missions to grind cash.
Eris is simply overpowered by allowing guarding without consumption, which translates to perfect unbreakable guard.

I'm just annoyed because of Lightnings newest dlc.....

Damn it. Look like I'll have to rush.
My wallet is crying.looking very good. i was hoping the CE can be pre-ordered on
amazon, but i guess not. now i have to go to their site (and make account?) in order to pre-order. :rolleyes:
it's only available for the first 5000, so i'm gonna have to pre-ordered fast. :blush:
EDIT: oh wow...it comes out $91.98 with that $11.99 USPS shipping. I can't handle the price...I'm gonna
have to cheap my way out of here in shame and just pick up the standard edition for $49.99. :P

Wait, a sec, this collectors box did not include that thick as hell, Yokotaro madness filled data book?

don't forget it's also Digital River who are handling the pre-orders and shipping. you dodged a bullet there. i was going to pre-order as well but then i read it was Digital River who was the distributor. i cringed and put my CC back into my wallet. you should be very wary if you ended up getting the SE.

I'm not familiar with those Digital River guys. What's wrong with them?

Bit the bullet and bought the CE, even though it's like 100 bucks plus customs for me. I dunno why I even did it, as Mind Zero will probably be released around that time as well (spring 2014), and before that I have Bravely Default, Tales of Symphonia, and maybe Dark Souls 2/Diablo 3 expansion to keep me busy. :heh:
I'm not familiar with those Digital River guys. What's wrong with them?i did a little search around. i kind of don't know them either
since i have never bought anything dealing with them.
but it seems they're the people that did the pre-ordering of that Ni No Kuni Wizard Edition
or whatever and piss off a lot of people because the pre-ordering was WAY
over what they have in stocks.
i also got this from wiki from them:
Digital River is a company that’s riddled with problems. From leaking the personal data of 200,000 users in 2010 to botching orders for Mattel collectors, it seems Digital River is rife with problems, having online, verbose complaints since at least 2001.
comments: "with that say and done, pre-ordered @ your own risk and may they not screw
with your LE; i'm getting my cheap $49.99 edition still." :blush:

If you played Nier and enjoyed it's localization, then rejoice since the same team is coming back for Drakengard 3 for the localization. Voice director seems to be different tho. :/

That's good news. They did a really good job with Nier.
I like Tara Platt as Zero and Michelle Ruff as One.

Yea, Cute that they made Michael a girl.
amazon now has drakengard 3 available for pre-order. it looks like it was added last week. it's the standard edition with a pre-order DLC bonus. just thought i'd pass the word along if anyone didn't want to deal with digital river through the square enix site.

Lookin good, I like her design. Would like that it was Zero in the future but I doubt that. :heh:

...so just make a NieR thread? It'll make it easier for people to search.

Due to my lack of PS4, it doesn't seem very appropriate for me to make a thread of a game I can't play
