Was this a good game?
Was this a good game?
No.
Berserk has no good adaptations.
Ps2 game is ok
It's pretty good for the time. draconus is better
I know it has an amazing soundtrack
>Came out in 99
Did it have any influence on DMC?
This. I'd often read the manga while listening to the game and anime OSTs.
Maybe but don't count on it
Probably not, but imagine a Berserk game made by Itsuno.
Good for the time
Nowadays probably frustrating to play
It’s ok for a short DC game. Pretty arcadey and that’s great. Only problem I had with the game was how bullshit Zodd and the mandrake hallway chase was.
I played it again recently and it's actually pretty comical how bad it is by today's standards. Loved it as a kid though.
No, for some weird reason they added a stun if you hit the sword on a wall, then gave you a shitton of indoor levels and the camera was shitty.
Based.
I forgot about the camera and the amount of time wide swings were fucked over in this game.
It’s strange because there’s decent wideareas where that issue doesn’t apply, yet so many hallways with enemies crammed in instead of an open arena.
PS2 game is better than DC, but no, none of them are really "good".
berserk, frankly, only has the golden age arc that's any good for suitably adapting into a video game. Problem is it's just a generic musoubait at that point, which we have in the form of that band of the hawk musou which is... Serviceable, but again, nothing special. It tries to go beyond it but it's just mediocre in every regard.
I wish someone would take the time to make a berserk game that goes through the golden age up through and including the eclipse, and doesn't go past it. Just a self contained game.
FINISH THE MANGA YOU FUCKING PEDOPHILE JAP FUCKER. FINISH IT NOW NOW NOW BEFORE YOU FUCKING DIE! GODDAMN IT!
BalZac. His name is ball sack. Damn.
No, it's like every non-sega dreamcast game where it's almost a good game but it's just a little half baked because the console was a weird middle stage between 5th and 6th gen hardware. The PS2 game is pretty amazing though.
If you want an influence on DMC, look up a PS1 game called rising zan.
>Berserk
>Fans can't agree that literally adaption of the material besides the original manga is truly good, many of them are considered to be actively bad
>Has been going for 30 years but the author still hasn't finished because he doesn't give a shit about the IP anymore
>Was always just devilman but in medieval times anyway

You think so? I think a dev would have a ton of shit to work with beyond that. There's the Black Swordsman arc that takes place before it, and the Tower of Conviction arc as well. Both arcs involved Guts mowing down countless enemies, the boss fight potential alone should be substantial. Imagine fighting Rosine or Mozgus and his cronies in a combat system developed by the likes of Platinum or Capcom.
I cant really see your point about golden age being the only suitable one. Something like the arcade game works fine in concept with doing a self contained plot during black swordsman.
Just depend on the devs with action aspects.
But if they want to do a golden age game, it should be something like a tactics game, like FFT in a sense. Would work well with the army aspect of it and working notable fighters as unique units.
Could even bullshit a second half with the neo band of the hawk and the apostles fighting the Kushkans.
The thing is black swordsman really only has a pair of fights, the two big apostle battles. Everything else is just slaughter. Guts is a monster past the golden age, and barely ever fights against anything that puts up the slightest challenge. I mean the entirety of the lost children arc is to display that exactly. He's a terrifying beastly man with no hesitation or afterthought for tearing through THOUSANDS of beasts. That's cool, but like, what the fuck do you do with that?
How can I play this game without buying a Dreamcast?
Why? Why is it so hard for those Japs to make a good adaptation? Hiatus is no excuse since Hunter x Hunter got a 150 episode anime made by Madhouse of all people.
Emulate it?
Don't, its not really good
Saying things are derivative of Go Nagai is a bit of a moot point
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?????
Redream or flycast
It was great
Post the walk.
You know which one.
