Diehard GameFAN writes: "Nier, developed by Cavia, seems to try and smash absolutely every video game genre it can onto its humble little disc. Not only that but it has one of the widest range of characters I’ve ever seen since beginning my gaming quest at the lowly age of four (go Pong!). On the surface Nier is an action RPG with fairly simple weapon and magic choices with slight customizations that can be done to both, but at its core a mash up of video game references and throwbacks to old games. This doesn’t always work very well, but it gets an A for effort."
Get ready to embark on a journey filled with monsters, magic, and overpowered haircuts, because this list features the best JRPGs on the PS3.
There wasn't that many. Thanks to the west's criticism. It was definitely lacking compared to every other ps system. Dont get me wrong there were a few good ones i know that.
Only gripe I have with Ar Tonelico 3 is that Saki is annoying as hell whether English or in Japanese. Then Saki's English voice actor became Ionasal on Ar Nosurge she was a little annoying but not as bad. Johnny Young Bosch voicing Tatsumi I thought he did a great job. And Akiko Shikata with her vocals and the music from the games just went hand and hand.
Nier and Drakengard are two series that couldn't be more different in their setting and stories, but somehow they are still linked.
Whether intended or not, NieR makes a strong case that good gameplay is not everything, especially if a game has larger goals in mind.
i mean ... it depends right. when i think about drakengard 1s combat .. damn. its god awful. the game is great but its very charring to get through because of it.
good combat helps a game tremendously
