Void Swordsman said:WOW, that is the biggest rip-off of the DS I've seen. lol, it's like they copied and pasted that from the manga!
Wereallmad said:the original PSO had the dragonsayer. It also had an option to create a 1 eyed hero with spiky hair.
CullKnight said:My friend and i were playing Streets of Rage 2 on the Genesis and there were 3 "homages" we think.
CullKnight said:This isn't really a ripoff but a homage maybe? I dont know tell me what yall think. My friend and i were playing Streets of Rage 2 on the Genesis and there were 3 "homages" we think. There is a female enemy that you fight named Casca and male flying jetpack enemy called GRIPHIS. Those alone are just a coincidnce but the sincher was the alien boss named VEHELIT. So i dont know, i know obviously its not a ripoff, there were no Dragonslayer clones or one eyed berserkers but interesting nonetheless
Vaxillus said:There's a weapon in Drakengard (Drag-on Dragoon for those in Japan) called Hymir's Finger. It's a huge sword which looks very similar to the DS. I couldn't find a pic though.
Final Fantasy VII's story, I spoil for you now, is Berserk's story, with some ingenious Sherlock Holmes mystery thrown in. In Berserk, Guts and Griffith become good friends and allies; they eventually fight, and (to put it into the simplest, most abstract) terms, Griffith loses (without being hit), which only scars him emotionally and pushes him to do a Drastic Deed which will bring about something roughly as nasty as the Meteor hanging over the sky of Final Fantasy VII. The characters are similar, the girls are similar, and the Major Plot Events are all parallel. The only catch is, well -- Berserk is still going on today.
Nakochan said:Yoshinori Kitase, the director of FFVII, apparently admitted in a Famitsu interview that he is rather fond of Berserk, so it makes sense that Cloud's sword would resemble the Dragonslayer.
Nakochan said:Although, I don't think I would go as far as to say what this guy did on his review of FFVII
hatu said:more like a bigger version of the stereotypical big fantasy sword
hatu said:The Dragonslayer isn't exactly the most original sword concept ever, more like a bigger version of the stereotypical big fantasy sword
hatu said:I just mean that every sword with a big blade isn't necessarily a intended imitation of DS
hatu said:If someone has the images from the first post saved could you upload them because they're not working anymore
Meathook said:I know in the new castlevania game there is a sword that you can make that is called the dragonkiller.
Meathook said:Text is : this massive sword is rumored to be able to kill a dragon in one hit. Or something very close to this
