I've finally gotten around to getting a PS3 emulator so I'm going to be giving that a proper go through myself soon. I bought it on release but its.....difficult to play on hardware. I got through Ending A back then but it was just too much to suffer through.
I always liked the theory that Ending A was the story in its most fictionalized telling
And, even though I hate 90% of it, Drakengard 2 shows that it basically fails to accomplish anything anyway and generally just pushes back the apocalypse a little bit.
It does say a lot about Caim as a character that even in the absolute mess of a game that is Drakengard 2, every scene he is in is fantastic and powerful. Heck the scene where he finally meets Angelus again still gets me emotional.
Any out-of-game reading material you'd suggest?
Grimoire Neir is the only one I think is really worth it. There's far too much of it, especially with Automata now, that is inaccessible due to never being translated or being a fucking musical/stage play.
Plus I have a huge hatred of Drama CDs, which is where most of it is otherwise.
