Also, many of the questions you would probably want to know after playing the main game are answered in these chapters, either indirectly or during the actual events of the gameplay. Because of this, the DLC does a much better job relating each of the sisters to the player than the main game ever did. The story of each of these chapters is obviously tailored to the sister it stars, exploring part of their life before the events of Drakengard 3 occurred. The DLC handily contrives a reason for dragon levels by having One's dragon, Gabriella, aid each sister.

Every chapter also has TONS of in-game VO fleshing out the sister in question and her relationship with her Disciple (including One’s “new” Disciple). There are a few cutscenes for each chapter, most of them in a new pop-up storybook style that works quite well if not appearing a bit cheaply made. You can level up each sister but on a much smaller scale that caps at 10. Each of them also have their own weapon, one of the four types from the original game, with its own stats and attack patterns-these weapons also unlock for the main game after finishing each chapter. You play as Zero’s sisters for the first time, but this isn’t much more than a model swap with many of the same animations. Each of these chapters is four stages (with one of those being a dragon level) that take about an hour or so to complete in total. There is one for each of the sisters, One through Five, and a new prologue chapter for Zero. Since this DLC is quite expensive ($30 for 6 new chapters), and since Drakengard 3 is already a game not too many people have “got around” to playing yet, I thought it would be useful to some if I did a little overview/review of what the DLC entails, to help all of you decide whether or not to purchase them.įirst off, let’s talk about what you get in the DLC chapters.

The most recent reason? Its DLC, which I bought a few months ago and just recently got around to finishing. I’m here yet again to talk about Drakengard 3-is anyone tired of it yet? All humor aside, it’s a game I think has been tragically overlooked by many, even with its rough edges, and I can’t stop thinking about it for a variety of reasons. and the entire bridge Zero was standing on.The new "pop-up" style for cutscenes-likely cheaper and easier to render than the other ones.

Then Five gets back up, but is immediately bisected by Dito, and he begins kicking her body while apparently cursing up a storm - except we can't hear what he's saying, because relaxing piano music has kicked in ("This audio has been deemed inappropriate for human consumption.").

No big deal, since the flower in her eye allows her to regenerate. In Branch B, Zero encounters Three and is maimed by her enhanced creations.
