Yeah, I think it's safe to say that Drakengard has some of the worst gameplay I've played for an Action-RPG. 90% of the games challenge comes from dealing with the games awful camera and getting cheapshot from an off screen enemy. Not to mention I love how the Crossbow enemies not only have ridiculous range in the air, but their A.I. ranges from "stand there and block with your face" to "I'm mothersmurfing Legolas here, watch as I fire three arrows in rapid succession with my two partners and scoot back without moving my legs a good 10 feet when you try to attack me". I wasted a whole evening trying to finish one of the simple expedition missions but kept getting reamed at the last second thanks to being constantly cheesed by these ranged enemies. Don't even get me started on the dragon mode where half the enemy cannonballs work like you think they would and the other half are homing attacks. Good luck figuring out which is which when the enemy fills the screen with them.
