I just finished this gameand deleted my save like an idiot because I didn't realize it was being serious, so whoever is helped by it better appreciate itwhat did I think
Based retard. You're a good man.
>what did I thinkDo goycattle actually? Maybe kikes were right.
>>738974453I guess on the bright side I finished the game anyways, so I'm not missing much (only thing I really missed was the superboss and some inconsequential sidequests), and it helps a bro out at the end of the day. That ending segment is kino regardless
You think has the best story in the history of Japan gaming.
i played this when it first came out and didnt stop until i had seen everything then never went back to it.just started a new game yesterday and im about 8 hours in. just learned about the aliens. this game is so fucking great. theres so much ive forgotten about it its like im playing it for the first time. its one of the only games where i bother to listen to all the dialogue and read all the files and shit because theres so much attention to detail and great little touches. such a shame taro has made nothing but fucking card games and mobile dogshit since this came out. i want more nier.
>>738974410>spoilerkek you're literally meat least I don't think I'm going to replay it anytime soon so I hope I helped someone with that
>>738974410>>738974769Look into playing Replicant, for the people who haven’t yet.
Congratulations, you have now come to realize that people who say "ummm ackshually the first one is better" are drooling contrarian retards
>>738974854Same, here's hoping our dumbasses helped another nierfag in need>>738974769I feel like this is one of those games that gets even better on replays. There's a lot of stuff that may go over your head unless you know the context for it, like the reason for 2B's coldness to 9S being that she keeps killing him over and over, but wants to distance herself from her feelings for him It's something that you'd probably be able to see better in the dialogue with prior knowledge.>>738974978I'm planning to. Any thoughts on Drakengard? I've heard his earlier games tend to be a bit clunkier in terms of gameplay.>>738974585Very true. It's odd to say, but I think the overall theming has tinges of stuff like Berserk, about struggling through a fucked up world
>>738974769Reinc being lost to time is a fucking shame. Reinc being gacha is a shame. Hopefully they retool it in some way.
>>738974516>didn't do the emil fightyou missed the whole game then. Restart retard.
>>738974410I wish I could enjoy this game like other people do. To me, the story always felt a bit juvenile in how deeply it actually explored its idea, and was just grossly stretched out over its pretty long runtime, which gets further padded by awful side quests. 2B has a fluid base moveset, but there is no depth to it and the enemies are tedious and repetitive, and I thought playing 9S was miserable. I also thought the music was only fine
>>738974983I think they're both good in different ways, I prefer Automata though. The only thing that annoys me is that there's a contigency of Gestalt/Replicantfags who have a very blatant chip on their soldier about Tomato being more popular
>>738974769I didn't play it until 2ish years after it released and ended up beating it two or 3 times, and then played the original and beat it on ps3 emulator playing gestalt, then played replicant and it wasn't as good imo.Either way they're all great and fuck the mobile game.
>>738974410>what did I thinkYou didn't. You listened. And that's what no one did.
>>738975138maybe some day in the future, but for now I usually like to put some space between myself and games when I finish them. Plus it'd be 40 hours to get back to where I was, and I have a Metroid Prime Quadrilogy to play through for the first time>>738975168I disagree with most of what you say, save for the gameplay. Going from something like Hi-Fi Rush or DMC to this definitely feels like a huge step down in terms of hack and slash gameplay.
>>738974410The game was a blast and I'll forever be mad that Yoko Taro going against all odds and actually landing a big financial hit just got him sent to the gacha mines instead of a guarantee of a proper sequel.
>>738974769It's pointless. Don't you know how hard trannylators fucked with the script of that game?
>>738974410You think it has the best ost ever made
>>738975214>then played replicant and it wasn't as good imo.What? It's almost 1 to 1 with gestalt.
>>738975429This. If you played any of this in English, you didn't play the game. You played some troon's fanfiction.
If it was good there would have been a sequel by now
>>738974410>what did I thinkYou think it's overrated trash for redditors and that Its huge empty world is boring, you believe it's no better than Metroid Prime 4 in quality.
>>738975695There was. You missed your chance.
>>738975909Bait used to be believable
>He thinks it's bait
>>738974410The original Nier on PS3 doesn't even ask you. It just deletes your save.
>>738974410>spoilerthe game will always have preset "saves" that come and save you, in case you are playing offline. your deleted saved data doesnt actually do anything except make your save file name come up in the end credits of someone elses game. you dont actually help anyone as the game will make sure that even offline players can beat that part.
>>738975909Based and true. One of the worst slop I've ever played and never finished because it was such an awful slog. Stellar Blade does literally everything better.
>>738974410You thought the combat was a little too button-mashy viableYou also thought the story was pretty goodYou also also thought that Pascal was the best character
>>738975382it really is bizarre and tragic that after years of making games that almost no one knows about he finally hit it big and then it was just>see ya later, yokes, bon voyage! have a good one and goodbye forever!
>>738975909>You think it's overrated trash for redditors and that Its huge empty world is boring, you believe it's no better than Metroid Prime 4 in quality.Yeah, this is basically what I thought of it
>>738977901true, true, and true
>>738974854>>738974410The whole point is to free yourself from value systems and numbers, meaning deleting your save is the highest expression of freedom you can make
>>738978006doesnt help hes constantly shitposting about doing literally anything for money, and he simply does nothing.
>>738974410I made a backup;)
>>738978158kind of a similar chord to MGS's overarching theme, and I love that shit too
>>738974983OP didn't say that though?
>>738978092Did you guys play the first? It's literally the continuation of Ending D. The second game is a vast improvement on all aspects of the first. I imagine it would be boring and confusing not knowing all the reference points.
>>738978353Yeah it's definitely quite similar to MGS2, 4 and maybe PW the most considering what The Boss does in it
>>738974410I can't lie I was in fucking tears though the whole ending and this punched me in the gut something fierce. I'm very emotional person and I played this at a very volatile moment in my life (retard idea) and I actually ended up having a full on freakout the next day at work and crying on the floor because I thought about it too much. I love music as well and it's something that's always had emotional pull with me, so I think that made a big difference. The music in this game might be the best in any ever made.
>>738979049I felt some of that. Definitely brought me to tears. Music is the most important part of a game if we're being real. If the themes spoke to you you should read Akagi and Ten, it got me to this emotional state as well.
>>738979049you sound like you have some serious emotional problems and i would recommend you not be such a little bitch. also,>The music in this game might be the best in any ever madeit is. in any game. ever
>>738974410Did you do the DLC? I'm guessing not because you deleted your save. It's not much but I enjoyed it.
>>738978860Don't try to engage with these retards, they're either trolling or genuinely too much of a soulless NPC to "get" it and neither of these are worth a response.>>738979372Thank you for the suggestion, it's always nice to see that other people that relate and I actually 100% agree with music being the most important part of a game. It's enveloping, all encompassing and sets the vibe and tone throughout the entire experience.Other standout examples for me include SIGNALIS and Death Stranding 1 and 2 as excellent examples of how effective music can be at elevating a game from good to great.>>738979532I go to therapy once a month now!
>>738978860if the "vast improvement on all aspects" version of the game already sucks why would they play the prequel?
>>738979049Good music can really carry vidya in my opinion.
>>738975461I meant the replicant 98-125y7092357 edition.the remake.They butchered a bunch of the ost and the original is better Imo. They story beats are also different slightly because different characters.Papa nier is just cooler to me.
>>738979941>Papa nier is just cooler to me.Oh, you're one of those.
>98-125y7092357 edition>3C3C1D119440927 dlcdo these huge number strings have any meaning hidden in them or is it just 'lol whacky computer code' naming?
>>738979829>Good music can really carry vidya in my opinion.The absolute state of /v/. What happened to "gameplay is king"?
>>738980569Was always a philistine take from people that peaked with Quake.
>>738980569tards who post that shit were frothing the most dogshit japanese ps2 rpgs you can imagine.
>>738974978Replicant is a fucking slogfest in comparison. Ho lee cow what a boring experience
>>738979820For the story. It's not Final Fantasy. Even Drakengard 3 is on the same timeline. So I was already a fan. Do people here ever play a bad game for a good story? That was the original Nier, and I liked it. Got the Platinum too.
>>738974410Truly the KINOest ending I've ever had in a game.
>>738983271>Do people here ever play a bad game for a good story?Not me, I primarily play videogames to have fun. If I want a good story i'd read a book or watch a movie from the 20th century.Gameplay > Music > World Interaction > Story > Graphics >Drakengard 3I played it and thought the characters were extremely obnoxious especially the Masochist big guy. Combat was pretty clunky too.
>>738974410You thought it was a extremely soulful game and you'll now go play nier.
>>738983271>Do people here ever play a bad game for a good story?no that sounds retarded
was funa2 is the superior posteriorreplicant is dogshit don't bother
>>738974410Switch 2 resolution/texture/framerate upgrade when?
>>738974769>aliensqrd?
Not a single post about the gameplay or combat. Tells you everything you need to know>>738975909>file already posted:hereBASED
>>738980192dumb incest enthusiast.
>>738980293I did that 98 thing and I just slapped my keyboard because that's basically what they did when they named it. idk wtf the actual name is nor do I care enough to copy paste it.
>>738986056Never because Switch 1 games don't run actually run natively on S2 and there is a translation layer that enables compatibility(this is why the patches are paid for Nintendo games btw). They would have to recompile a new S2 executable which they won't do.
>>738975909>>738977871thisit has cool lore but there's just a few sentences of it in the whole game hidden behind shit gameplay and replaying same segments two times
>>738986404Damn :(Kinda silly though. Even though Platinum would be double-dipping, a lot of users (myself included) would appreciate and buy it.
>>738974410crazy how this dude has done nothing with any impact since this gamealso crazy how it's almost 10 years oldi'm so old
>>738982662The opinion of anyone who posts wojaks is automatically invalidated.
>>738974410It's a huge disappointment if you played the previous games first. Route A is okay. Route B has Nier's problem of "are we the baddies" except even worse. I don't care if your murderbot has a crying baby inside it, it's still a murderbot.Routes C and D are rancid garbage. A2 has zero motivation whatsoever outside of being a spectator for whatever's going on, and the whole route is a buildup to some grand finale that's just a discount SHODAN, a tidbit about 2B that doesn't even matter at this point, and machines just fucking off, zero reference to all the foreshadowing from earlier. Ending E would be alright if it didn't follow the dogshit that's C and D, as it is it's just hollow.Also they killed off the Machine Village, which it the most interesting part of the whole game, for cheap drama instead of exploring it further. Lame.
>>738974410Ive beat and seen all the endings , honestly the only thing this game got going is the story and the music, everything else is meh, the combat and gameplay is pretty boring and hugely lacks variety, enemies are boring to fight, I dont even remember much from the story or the different endings, but it was a long time ago that I played it.

>>738974410Game of the century. I cried at the finale.
>>738983271There are better mediums suited for what you need. In fact you could be reading visual novels instead of ubislop with jrpg coat of paint
