Drakengard 3 Review | Hardcore Gamer

Drakengard has always been one half beat-em-up and one half Ace Combat-style shooting. In previous games, the ground-based combat was not great. The controls were sluggish, and on the whole encounters felt too slow. Drakengard 3 definitely fixes that problem, delivering a fast, acrobatic spectacle fighter in the vein of Devil May Cry and Bayonetta. While not nearly as precise as its contemporaries (the camera in particular needs a lot of work) its quite fast-paced and fun in its own right, well above the standard set by most Action-RPGs. You can switch between four weapons on the fly, each of which handles quite differently, and the unlockable variations of each weapon all use different combo trees and animation timing in addition to different stats.
