Why did I pay $40 for this? Still awesome though. Love the Zelda vibe. I'm about halfway through. Enemies are a bit repetative though

I had a huge amount of trade in credit, so I was buying things left and right. Still, you can get games for cheap - lowest I've seen is $3 for Sega Superstars Tennis. I could have got i cheaper if I'd waited.

I like it, but I think i'm going to take a break. Powered through about half of it without even stopping to do sidequests.
There's a Let's Play up on the Something Awful forums by the guy who did the Drakengard LP that goes into some background on the weapons

I've been skipping the sidequests and the upgrading and all that and playing it like a Zelda clone.

had the worst experience with this this weekend. Saturday night i got to the Darklord's Castle. get to the very final bit of the very final boss. i've got a sliver of health and its 8:30pm. try a few times to get through the bullet hell, realize I'm not going to do it with no food and i need to leave anyway. so i quit, and realize that the last save point was about 3 hours ago.

powered through it the next morning but it still left a bad taste in my mouth. liked it, though... gonna try for the B ending. wish you could play as Kaine. seems like a lot of the game was cut because they ran out of money

Apparently, the E ending (part of the cut content) had you playing as Kaine. There've been some rumblings about a sequel despite all evidence to the contrary, and if this happens I would not be surprised to see her as the protagonist.


it feels like that's what the game wants you to do with the B path

I've been watching Supernatural, and I've got two three younger siblings, so I understand the protectiveness.

The timeskip didn't make as much narrative sense in the version I played, though. It was like 'a few things changed and you can use bigger weapons' vs what it must be for Brother Nier.
