>>731134698After Drakengard Trilogy Remaster release.
>>731134698Unfortunately Yoko Taro is kind of stuck doing projects for Square Enix's that keep failing to materialize (or in the case of the phone games not meeting Square's legendary high standards for profits)>Why don't they get someone else to make one? They have done if they didn't keep squandering all the money they make on stupid crap like NFTs a couple of years ago. Now they're putting all their eggs into the Final Fantasy 7 remake basket
>>731134698It literally already got TWO (2):The FFXIV raid, and the NieR Re:Incarnation.Also, Taro recently confirmed that he'd started working on a proper PC + homeconsole sequel three times already, and every time Squeernix canceled the projects.

Squeenix unironically thinks that pouring massive resources into REDDITBIRTH is a better choice than another Nier game. Beyond comprehension.
>>731136169thanks for helping me cum
>>731136328he just posted that!
Nier Automata's story is kinda ass. The world too. 2B and the Yohra aesthetics were the only good things.
>>731138743yeah. fight robots only to die due to numbers gets pretty boring
>>731134698Reincarnation
>>731138743>>731140538Shit take by literal zero IQ plebs.The story and especially the subtext of the game is amazing. The game has like seven layers of meta slapped on each other.
>>731140992okay tell me about it then smart guy
>>731141067Sure thing, kiddo!tl;dr: Nier Automata's a game that celebrates both humanity and the history of the video games.The entire game of NA serves as a dark reflection of our own flaws and cycles of violence, illustrating how miscommunication and outdated beliefs can control our lives and the actions of humanity. How the original meaning of ancient memes may have been forgotten long ago, yet the process itself may still survive and have become a new cause.It warns of the harmful path we may be heading towards and highlights the irony of advanced artificial beings worshipping humans and repeating our mistakes.The game's meta aspect deepens the message by portraying artificial beings trapped in a fictional media created by humans, unable to escape their programming and stuck in a cycle of death and rebirth. The game's integration of its UI and settings as a part of the androids' own bodies and world view adds another layer of immersion and understanding.Yet no matter of all these cynical and nihilistic themes and portrayals of suffering, the game manages to end on a surprisingly optimistic note. It demonstrates that change is possible, it just requires a potentially painful first step. A strong desire for change. And the way this choice is portrayed is something only the true video game enjoyers could appreciate or even begin to understand.Gonna have to post part 2, because of this gay post length limit....
>>731141471>cont'd:In a way, the entire game of NA is like a black mirror, showing where OUR own traits, our own currently existing endless cycles of violence can lead us and the children of the entire humanity eventually. The game tries to show us how the mix of miscommunication and some outright ancient memes can control our daily lives and the actions of the entire species. How some naive and archaic raison d'etre can lock us all down a very harmful path, becoming a self-sustaining, closed loop system of its own. A machine whose original purpose may have been forgotten ages ago, but which's existence itself has become a cause for many.It's a grim warning dressed up in a form of interactive science-fantasy, which initially seems to just play the common tropes, making players draw early conclusions of silly robotic programmings and whatnot. Yet soon after the players realize should realize how similar us humans are to these artificial beings, and how big of an irony it is to see these perfected, almost immortal super beings worship us and our dark history as their "gods", repeating our mistakes.The meta of the game goes even deeper though:Here you have artificial beings, keen on understanding and imitating mankind, trapped in a piece of fictional media made by us humans. Essentially double artificial creatures, unable to escape their own programming (on many levels), stuck in their own miniature cycle of death and rebirth.By portraying this panorama through the lens of video games, to the point of making the game's UI and settings part of these Androids themselves, a piece of their own natural behavior and world view, things suddenly just "click".
