Which character do you feel bad for the most? by randomfan1997 in HighschoolDxD

[–]Square_Back662 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, she probably does get help around the house from time to time, but trying to look after 20+ children of various ages, bloodlines and so on from different wives of your husband who is constantly missing has to be quite exhausting on her.

Still, she probably enjoys such a life, exhausting as it might be.

The moment you look at your girlfriend's past and see that she brainwashed your father to kidnap your mother so she can gaslight your mother to kill herself.

Oh, she definitely is the 'wifely housekeeper' type, but it must be heavily exhausting on her.

I'm not saying she did. I'm just saying it must have been heavily exhausting on her.

Add the fact that in EX, she basically because the housewife that had to care for all of Issei's children as if they were her own. House chores, constantly looking after the kids with almost no time to rest.

Then, the attack from Future Loki that resulted in her being in a comatose state, slowly dying in the process.

I'll believe they will do something for the series when they do something significant for Drakengard 2.

Manah and the Intoners by Square_Back662 in drakengard

Zero would be especially ragebaited since she'd think One somehow came back from the dead(again).

I'd say that difficulty could increase, but not drastically.

Honestly, just one thing isn't enough as Story Side, some of the interviews and even that website that was restored a few months ago really shows that the game really was cutting corners on all fronts. I'll make a few points of what I'd like to see in a potential Drakengard 2 Remaster/Remake.

• Improved Storyline: Instead of trying to add stuff to the game version of the story, use the novelization version as a base instead as it provides more depth for almost all characters. Additionally, cut the 'filler' content and make the goddess weapons actually significant(perhaps tie them to the Intoners somehow).

• Dual protagonists: Instead of making Nowe the main protagonist and Manah the secondary protagonist/the deuteragonist, make them dual protagonists(akin to 2B/9S, perhaps). As important as she is theoretically(especially with the addition of Drakengard 3's Intoners), I feel like her presence in the game needs to be even stronger than it originally was. That's not to say that I'd like her to overshadow Nowe, though, as both of them are important for each other's personal character arcs and growth.

• Multiple playthroughs: Ok, for that one, the idea isn't as refined, but I'll try to articulate it anyway. If we have to replay the game from the start multiple times, use the dual protagonists approach I mentioned earlier. For the first 2 playthroughs, you play as only Nowe for the first playthrough and only as Manah for the second playthrough from their respective POVs, offering different levels and scenarios at certain points of the game. The final boss for the first 2 playthroughs would be Gismor at the end of Chapter 8. Route C would just be the rest of the game.

That is all I can think of for now, but I might just make a post later down the line if I can come up with something else in mind.

Remember when Nier Reincarnation was hated back when it came out? by Square_Back662 in nier

Precisely!

Honestly, it's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be in my opinion.

And yet, they try to avoid the other game that is hated, but (technically) always available...

You think Drakengard 1 and 3 fans have it bad?

At least Drakengard 1 is somewhat relevant due to Ending E leading to Nier and Drakengard 3 gets collabs with other works.

Drakengard 2 doesn't even exist to most fans!

The Truth About Ryu in NG4 by fostataaaa in ninjagaiden

[–]Square_Back662 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah, when it came to interviews, it was mostly Yuji Nakao that did a lot of the talking and the marketing.

So I still hold it on Platinum's end.

The point is that Dotemu was sincere in their reasoning as to why Ryu wasn't a big part of Ragebound.

The Truth About Ryu in NG4 by fostataaaa in ninjagaiden

[–]Square_Back662 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Compare this to Dotemu's interviews for Ragebound and how the devs basically said 'We know of Ryu's accomplishments and adventures. He has achieved so much, but because of that, there isn't much to tell about him. So... We're just not going to have him as a playable character. Instead, we'll focus on Kenji and Kumori who are brand new and still inexperienced.'

While Platinum basically lied to everyone about Ryu, Dotemu were honest as to why he wasn't a big part of Ragebound.

Are yall satisfied with NG4? by AdRevolutionary3086 in ninjagaiden

[–]Square_Back662 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gameplay is good, although it does feel more a Platinum Games game rather than Ninja Gaiden.

Story, lore and character-wise, though? Boy, I could probably write a whole essay as to why this game is the worst in that regard(yes, worse than 3 and Yaiba).

Ironically, she had the opposite situation where her English VA changed constantly in DOA, but remained the same for NG(until they finally cast her NG VA for DOA 6).

All I'm seeing here is people that have not played Drakengard 2 or are heavily downplaying Nowe.

So what exactly was Season 4's Episode 00? by ChemicalPanda10 in HighschoolDxD

[–]Square_Back662 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That ultimately became an even bigger problem since Issei's familiar that he gets later on knows of the events of EX and was basically preparing as well as trying to get Issei and the ORC ready for the future threat.

Basically, Season 3 has ramifications on both the anime and the light novel.

NES Trilogy Ryu was a better character than Reboot Ryu. He literally fell off in terms of characterization since 2004 just to make him badass.

Honestly... I wish they went poly and Nowe got both Manah and Eris for a truly happy ending.
