DOOM HI RES TEXTURES SERIES

The conflict between what is logical, but perhaps cold, and what emotion dictates as right is at the heart of the game and is put to good use. The morality questions I posed in the introductory paragraph are where the interesting gray area kicks in, making you wonder who is really right, without Velvet’s party and their individual struggles looking unsympathetic.

We’ve all seen this revenge plot setup, and Berseria doesn’t really go out of its way to deviate from the path you expect from the tale. The party characters that Velvet meets along the way have their own stories of vengeance and redemption, and their interactions with Velvet will help her let go of the ‘badass rage-filled heroine’ facade every now and then. The event that lost everything to them brought humanity back to the brink of destroying the demons, although they are still there, and the population seems to be overwhelmingly grateful for the new Exorcist Abbey, a group of augmented warriors, the target. Newly motivated by hate Velvet is given the opportunity to pursue her target after a bloody prison break, only to discover that her ultimate tragedy could have resulted in the salvation of the world. Velvet Crowe, initially a caring young woman doing her best to care for her brother in a demon-overrun world, has her life forever changed three years before the events of history by a trusted mentor as she loses everything, becomes a demon and finds itself locked up as the world changes dramatically. In the end, the setup and most of the beats in the history of Berseria can be seen a mile and a half away.
