She wants to kill her sisters to become the strongest being in the world, and she also has a dragon that urinates compulsively. After killing women, she takes their men and has sex with them, she has a flower that’s sticking out of one eye that lets her regrow her limbs, and her arm falls off but she uses a parasite to keep it attached. She’s sadistic and genocidal, she’s abusive towards her only companions. She is also the player character, and this is one of the stupidest videogames I’ve ever played.Ĭoming to us courtesy of Access Games – that studio behind the brilliantly demented Deadly Premonition – Drakengard 3 is about as dumb as it gets. One drakengard 3 full#įull of brainless hack and slash combat that is sloppy in execution, littered with insensible dialog, full of repeated references to extreme masochism, horny old men, and the shoddiness of the game’s own level design, this is a title that picks up the crazy ball and proceeds to hump it without dignity or remorse. There’s something about this game that is impossible to hate. It is crude, both in terms of gameplay and humor, yet it carries with it a total sincerity, a sheer love of its own creative insanity that I can’t help respecting. While an old man on stilts declares that he can’t function without “booty in the morning,” and Zero complains about receiving experience points for mundane tasks, this third Drakengard goes out of its way to subvert expectations and lampoon itself at every opportunity.

For a game about mindlessly slashing at everything onscreen, Drakengard 3 never fails to surprise.
