"It was about 10 years ago when we were working on the original Drakengard that I thought about the meaning of “killing.” I was looking at a lot of games back then, and I saw these messages like “You’ve defeated 100 enemies!” or “Eradicated 100 enemy soldiers!” in an almost gloating manner. But when I thought about it in an extremely calm state of mind, it hit me that gloating about killing a hundred people is strange. I mean, you’re a serial killer if you killed a hundred people. It just struck me as insane. That’s why I decided to have the army of the protagonist in Drakengard be one where everyone’s insane, to create this twisted organization where everyone’s wrong and unjust. I wanted to weave a tale about these twisted people.
And then we worked on Nier…We created this game called Nier, and after the world experienced the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the war in Iraq, we were being bombarded with updates on terrorist organizations and activities even in Japan. That’s when my opinion changed. The vibe I was getting from society was: you don’t have to be insane to kill someone. You just have to think you’re right. So that’s why I made Nier a game revolving around this concept of “being able to kill others if you think you’re right, ” or “everyone believes that they’re in the right.”"

From Yoko Taro's interview about Drakengard 3

Probably everyone playing Nier:

Ending A : "HAHA EAT SHIT SHADOWLORD!!"
Ending B-E : "Oh god what have i done?"

[jaredsergent]

Yonah " Are ya winning Dad?"
Shadowlord " ghgdrhhilkinb" ( *No* )
Nier " Yes" (hes not)

[capncrunchfan]

Me fighting the shadowlord on ending A: let's go! Finally gonna save Yonah.
Me fighting the shadowlord on ending B: PAIN

[jaredsergent]

This just in on Android News!
"Local Dad Dooms Humanity to Save his Daughter"
And next "How to deal with loss of our creators"

[cjmarshall]

“Well, I better go find a cure for my daughter!”

“…What the hell do you mean I doomed humanity?!”

[TonyBMan]

The saddest, most metal boss theme in the world. A juxtaposition of objectively doing the right thing, while simultaneously doing the WORST THING YOU COULD POSSIBLY DO.

[Cahir]

I love the similarities between Shadowlord and Eve
-Both are finall bosses of routes A/B
-Both are fighting for the sake of their sibling and go full despair after losing them
-Both ends up kneeling after the fight, just waiting for finishing blow
-One breaks our melee weapons, forcing us to take him down with ranged attacks, while the other can only be taken down with melee weapon while we lost our ranged attacks
-Their themes have pretty similar feel to me. While epic they are also sad and melancholic

Came here faster than fucking lightning after i got the notification

[midnightkitsune]

I love how I literally started playing NieR Automata the other day and soon hopefully Replicant after I finish. Then the legend uploads this.

[lotusluminance]

I didn't even try to not cry.

Let's all thank Yoko Taro and Keiichi Okabe for this haunting beauty.

And Falkkone for the intensification of course.

[Ultrachannel]

Well, humanity may have been wiped out because of this battle, but at least in the future there's cute androids!

[rizzierizriz]

I am SO SO HAPPY that Shadowlord is getting the love it deserved from the beginning, back when original Nier was released it wasn't really popular, even years after that it stayed as one of the less popular songs of the franchise, but now? it's being appreciated as the masterpiece it is and I'm so glad for it!

[senhara]

Now I can cry with sick guitar riffs at the same time!

[pedroaqua]

Now all we need next is Drakengard 3 The Final Song!!!

[sufferingmp]

Damn you really did justice to this already great track

[qphehqohaaa]

You want me to understand your sorrow !? You think I'm gonna sympathize with you !? I swore to protect my sister and friends if someone puts them in danger they must stand aside or be cut down! NOW COME ON! LET'S FINISH THIS!

[TheChibiGingi]

I NEVER clicked on a video as fast I did just now.

[tear]

Finally a FalKKonE Shadowlord cover, this is fantastic

[ZacSonicMee]

THANK YOU for making something for Replicant instead of ignoring it and just going to Automata again instead, people seem to forget Replicant just recently got it's remake.
