Game has its ups and downs, with the mid part definitely being the biggest drag, but it still feels super good to play.

My biggest problems with it are the enemies, they really don't push the combat system at all, and the open world, just feels a waste of time.

2B tho is such a great design and has godly animations.

I must be almost finished with the 'A' playthrough as a number of sidequests have been locked.

Goddamn what a game. It's too early for me to make any final judgement on it yet but this has gotta be one of the finest videogames ever made, yeah? It just feels so deliberate in its purpose and design. Yoko Taro :bow

:bow 2B :bow2

B play through is worth the time just to get to C.

I'll add that nothing is missable so don't feel you have to complete everything you might have missed previously in that run if it becomes a drag.

Don't worry this game has a cure for people who are ocd about achievements.

Still just picking away at the 'B' playthrough. Too tempted by all the sidequest blips on the map so it's taking me forever to get through the game. I blame UBISHIT software

holy shit the concert is mean

Whats so great about this shirt design is that the original engrish design made zero sense :-
      but in the context of Nier Automata its absolutely perfect.

Make sure you do both versions at the point where the game lets you choose which character to play during the fight.

This game really lingers with you doesnt it? Game of the decade for sure - possibly GOAT

The Tower is probably one of the most powerful sequences in gaming history. All tied together by an amazing song:



I've done all endings A,B,C,D,E now. Mopping up the DLC, sidequests and misc achievements now. Will purchase the grindy ones I think.

there's so much i disliked about nier, from the disjointed gameplay elements that made much of my playtime feel like a chore to how little the characters, specifically 9s, connected to me on an emotional level despite the writers' best efforts. however, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts and on a philosophical level, it resonated to me on a level a game hasn't since completing mgs2 as a teenager. there's so much i'd like to discuss and i'm saddened i wasn't there when most of the discussion was to be had. the game is so layered and nuanced that i might be even willing to sit through, i can't believe i'm writing this, some overwrought youtube analysis, especially as i plan to never replay it and i didn't pick up on a lot of the finer plot details since i generally breeze through games with little care for much other than gameplay. it's why i wouldn't hesitate to call this game a masterpiece despite not enjoying much of my playthrough.

now that i think about it, my timing couldn't have been more inadvertent as nier is almost too perfect of a game to playthrough with death stranding looming around the corner. though, i'm really hoping kojima delivers on all fronts
