No.Berserk has no good adaptations.

>>507735161Ps2 game is ok

>>507735008It's pretty good for the time. draconus is better

I know it has an amazing soundtrack

>>507735161>Came out in 99Did it have any influence on DMC?

>>507735712This. I'd often read the manga while listening to the game and anime OSTs.

>>507735867Maybe but don't count on it

>>507735867Probably not, but imagine a Berserk game made by Itsuno.

>>507735008Good for the timeNowadays probably frustrating to play

>>507735008It’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.

>>507736761I played it again recently and it's actually pretty comical how bad it is by today's standards. Loved it as a kid though.

>>507735008No, 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.

>>507737175I 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.

BalZac. His name is ball sack. Damn.

>>507735008No, 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.>>507735867If 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

>>507737757>berserk, frankly, only has the golden age arc that's any good for suitably adapting into a video game.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.

>>507737757I 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.

>>507738594The 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?

You think of DMC, Bayonetta, God of War, Ninja Gaiden, Metal Gear Rising etc and all those game basically fit that description - slaying a bunch of mooks until you get to the challenging boss. Honestly, it sounds right up Berserk's alley.

>>507746129The game is still bad.Your point? None.Don't you ever reply to me ever again.

>>507740385Probably not as many as you'd think. Seems everything's slowly coming together. The Four Kings are obviously a counterpart to the God Hand and may very well be the actual God Hand, with the Idea of Evil's goons being imposters.The Kings and the Hand are gonna have some showdown and Femto and Guts will too.He's gonna go normie as absolute fuck with the climax, I guarantee it.

>>507746390You've never even played a second of it, otherwise you would've known it wasn't an adaptation. I have zero reason to take credence in your opinion of this game.

Unless he goes to that assassin clan hideout where Rickert is heading or something. I mean, I don't want that many detours but stopping off at one or two places for the sake of developing a few characters a little more (like Serpico and Isidro) couldn't hurt.

>>507750512Yeah, I'm feeling the same way. Maybe a couple more short arcs leading up to endgame.

>>507742659people probably don't wanna go around recommending something with that much cunny in it

>>507750512>>507750595See, the dilemma I have is that I personally want to see the likes of Serpico get more fleshed out before the end, but at the same time I also want a few more people to join Guts' crew like those Bakiraka dudes and maybe Zodd, but then this would be at the expense of the people already part of Guts' crew. At any rate, I think everything is designed to set up a parallel between Guts and Griffith, where one day Guts' Behilit will activate and engulf the rest of the current gang, and then he's left with a choice between sacrificing them in pursuit of Griffith or refusing the sacrifice and then God knows what happens.

>>507744681Blacked, sacrificed, betrayed, cucked, falsely antagonized. Haven't read new chapters, maybe more.

>>507747192Didn't Miura already confirm that the ending wasn't going to be happy?

>>507753379That faggot is too busy playing idolmaster to give a shit

>>507743863There is a line that acknowledges this in the game. I forget the exact wording but it is self aware.

Millennium Empire was the beginning of the end and Fantasia is absolute garbage>>507750512>Isidrogod I fucking wish.poor kid has potential for interesting development but two joke characters weren't enough for Miura so he had to butcher him, too

>>507756774>Millennium Empire was the beginning of the end and Fantasia is absolute garbageWhy?

>>507756735Sometimes when you kill over 1,000 enemies, Guts will mutter to himself "They'll need to think of a new nickname for me now."

>>507757313guts party became increasingly worse, especially with the introduction of schierke who brought with her all the terrible magic garbage.furthermore you feel barely any story progress on guts side, almost like miura doesn't know what the fuck to do with them.the saving grace of millennium was the kushan war which remained interesting.griffith's half of the story if fantasia was somehow even worse than guts bits but at least now it seems to be setting up for something interesting with rickert.still I have lost all hope for guts party. At this point I just wish he'd kill them off and continue with whatever crazy idea he has for rickert

>>507757568Ok, that's kinda funny.

>>507758540Schierke is great though.

In this world, is the destiny of mankind controlled by some transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of God hovering above? At least it is true, that man has no control, even over his own will.

>>507758992I admit she's not bad in of herself, it's just that the rest of the party gets shafted hard for the sake of fellating that goddamn loliwitch

>>507759245Miura realized how retarded that was and retconned it for now

>>507758992Silke would be a fine character if there was a new chapter every week and not twice a year.

>>507759487I don't think that's the case, it's just that her magic makes her more useful to Guts than the others so she shares more panel time with him.

>>507762323I don't see how Shirke's arrival coincides with any character's development halting. Besides, Serpico's had plenty of development. We know pretty much his entire backstory and there have been chapters that depict how he's subtly changed from who he was at the start. The thing is that his character is not an independent one, it's directly tied to Farnese. He goes where she goes. The only way you can develop him further at this point is if something comes into conflict with that dynamic.
