No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.

Of the three, Drakengard 2 is the closest any of the 3 gets to being an actually good and functional game. It's also the one that missed the point that the others are going for. 1 and 3 are trying to say something, 2 they just said "Make a Musou" and then they did. It's a dang good one too honestly. 4 characters and all of them are tightly made with satisfying kits that reflect the character.

An over-arching thematic thrust of this series is that it probably shouldn't be fun to kill people. 2 tried to make it more fun because the director didn't understand that.

Even Automata is, to be frank, kind of mediocre as far as action games go. But after twenty years of this series I'm not really heading in expecting to enjoy the gameplay.

One of my biggest hurdles in playing Automata was that I really don't like 9S, but now I respect it, because I believe that was the point.

For anyone put off by the first episode of the anime I’d strongly recommend checking out the second

This is how 99% of anime recommendations go and it rarely ever pans out well for me.

Is the powered robot suit fueled by PTSD somehow, or does the suit itself has PTSD?

Yes.

that's fair, but in a discussion about "what's yoko taro even been up to", it seems weird to just ignore this game? I mean, there's tons of story in there. yoko taro doesn't do more work when the gameplay is like automata vs when it's like reincarnation, does he?

if they wanted me to give a poo poo they shouldn't have made it a bullshit gacha game

you can blast through the story fairly quick.

They made me watch that little white girl run walk through a castle for like ten loving minutes and I turned that poo poo off and never looked back. Either make a game or write a book, but miss me with this half-assed garbage.
