So long as Yoko Taro is not pulling our leg, it is more and more trying like one other Nier sport is on the best way. Whether or not that is Nier 3, or Nier 4 if you happen to depend Reincarnation (and you need to, as a result of Taro himself actually appears to), nobody is aware of simply but, although the current hints counsel the phrase “repent” may match someplace in there. That is all nice and dandy, probably thrilling even, I really like Nier! However (after all there is a however), the factor I would actually like to see most from Taro, is a return to his lesser recognized however equally fascinating sequence, Drakengard.
Should you’re a devoted Nier/ Taro fan, you will probably already pay attention to the Drakengard line of video games, a brief sequence of video games that Taro solely really made two out of three of, however can be deeply linked to Nier itself. I will not get too deep into the weeds, however imagine it or not, Nier is definitely a spin-off of the unique Drakengard, set in the way forward for one among its endings that’s ridiculously tough to unlock. That ending is significantly wild, as a result of the complete sport has a mediaeval setting, but for some purpose it sees its dragon-riding protagonist thrust to modern-day Tokyo, setting the occasions of the unique Nier into movement.
Drakengard did really obtain a sequel, however Taro had nothing to do with that one, although he later got here again for Drakengard 3, releasing in 2013, three years after Nier. Sadly, 3 in the end obtained blended critiques, principally due to extreme framerate points, although gameplay was properly obtained – even when nobody appreciated the dragon-riding components.
