It’s as technically impressive as it is terrifying.

#ITONER DRAKENGARD FULL#
There’s a lot of killing with that thing anyway, along with some light puzzle solving.īut the thing this game is absolutely full of is rats. Main girl’s weapon of choice is a slingshot, and the previously mentioned crafting elements improve that by speeding up the time between shots and providing more ammo. I won’t spoil what makes him special, but it affects gameplay late in the game. Anyway, you play some girl whose family is attacked because her younger brother has some kind of special blood. It’s set during the plague era in France where the church was killing anyone who was diseased, burning the bodies, and attracting rats. It’s actually third-person stealth action game with crafting elements and a lot of escort segments. Surprisingly, it isn’t a walking simulator. Some time later, and after subbing to Game Pass, I saw that this game was on the list and decided to give it a go. I originally heard of this game when journalists were praising it from the rooftops, and quickly assumed that it was some dumb walking simulator. I am not very far into the game, but I’ve completely lost interest in it.
#ITONER DRAKENGARD PLUS#
Plus the shooting controls aren’t great, so wasting ammo becomes more of a problem than I’d like. Some people might enjoy this, but I find the whole thing a pain. It limits how far I can go, constantly makes me micromanage and stop constantly so I can go search for fuel or ammo. The resource and fuel management in the game is just the complete antithesis of things I enjoy doing in open world exploration games. I haven’t gotten too far with the story, the game is such a drag. Specifically thinking about his supposedly dead wife. The main story itself is about the protag and his buddy living in this post-apocalyptic world, and reminiscing about the old days. Thankfully you can skip every piece of radio dialogue. Even if he isn’t wrong, it’s the preachiest bullshit I’ve heard. One particular character runs a radio show called “Freedom Radio” or something to that effect, and spend the time complaining about how the American government are a bunch of incompetent ass-hats who sell out the American people at every opportunity. The NPCs are worse, and are constantly yapping at you on the radio. The protagonist is pretty boring and not interesting to listen to at all.
#ITONER DRAKENGARD PC#
It’s that latter aspect that got me interested in playing this once the PC version came out.Īfter a good few hours of it though, I just found myself in a similar place to the reviewers. Once it started getting reviews though, it seemed like reviewers were really disinterested with it, but the actual player response was mostly positive. A giant horde is cool and all, but I wondered what else it had going for it. When I first saw this game I was skeptical about the zombie stuff. An open-world zombie apocalypse survival game with crafting elements. Stop me if you’ve heard this premise before. Keep in mind that I work on this post over these months and sometimes it causes the flow of the text to be very inconsistent. It’s time for my thoughts on video games and anime that I’ve played through the first half of this year.
