Drakengard isn't the worst game in the world because it does have some awesome things going for it such as story, soundtrack, and atmosphere. The gameplay on the other hand leaves much to be desired. It’s got the whole musou aspect and some moves feel good, and some just don't quite do it. Like for example landing the finishing blow after a long combo string feels awesome right? True, but then the general clunk impedes a lot of that. Riding the dragon can be awesome but has its share of issues as well. However, the biggest problem is that if you want to see all the endings you have grind like hell. Imo, one playthrough is enough and besides the normal ending is the one the sequel follows.
