May the patron saint of BUYING watch over this thread!
Fund Yoko Taro's exploration of the culinary delights!
I got so scared when I looked at the other thread and saw it dead. I thought I failed to keep it alive
>>498556327>...It only confuses me more. If Gestalt events happened in a previous world cycle, how come Papa Nier's weapon (Cruel Arrogance) appears in Automata?.. Does Automata happen so long after the first cycles that it becomes a shared future for all of them, no matter how different those loops were?.. How do two different "timelines" even unite?..We don't really know, anon. We don't even truly understand how the cycles work or what causes them or what the game means by "branching". The consensus among the fandom is that there's branching timelines and that certain entities can observe stuff across multiple branches by using maso based quantum computers. Accord also seems to be able to travel across space and time and multiple timelines as well. She's also distributing weapons all over to collect memories or something.The Japanese materials describe branching as a "shift" and there's some discussion in the DoD 3 Complete Guide where a bunch of the writers who work with Yoko Taro discuss the concept and say they don't know what Yoko Taro means by it but it might actually mean shifting the entire timeline instead of how we conventionally think of branching.Yoko Taro has stated that no matter what things always turn out the same way and that's what Accord is trying to figure out.Anyway, all that said, the weapon probably ended up there due to Accord. It's worth noting that Virtuous Dignity (the opposite version of Cruel Arrogance) references Brother. Also, Iron Pipe references either Father or Brother depending on the language setting.
>>498608107oh hey, the last thread actually reached the bump limit for once.
>>498614253Father > Brother.Period.
>>498621242If he's so good then why did his game sell so bad that Yoko Taro decided never to bring him back?
>>498621558Same with Manah. Fans hate good characters.
>>498614253>but it might actually mean shifting the entire timeline instead of how we conventionally think of branching.So... closer to Steins;Gate version of time travel? There's an infinite amount of possible world lines, most of which don't differ from each other by much, but they can be grouped into larger "threads" where some big important event happened (or not). Only one world line can be active at a time there, and only specific people (that would be Okabe and his friends through the Eye of Steiner's radiance in S;G, or Accord, Admins, Watchers and Players in Drakenier) can actually see/feel when the line changes and remember what things are different between various lines. But in Nier, there is no rule about only one active timeline, so that'd be the reason why Accords are hopping here and there.>Yoko Taro has stated that no matter what things always turn out the same way and that's what Accord is trying to figure out.I'm curious what is the real End of Nier...
>>498623432U S E L E S S
>>498623509I bet that S;G3 is going to have an Automata collab. This cannot continue. This cannot continue. This cannot continue. This cannot continue.https://youtu.be/OMtgmx70d1M
>>498623432Yes,it feels very reminiscent of Steins;Gate to me as well.The discussion in the DoD 3 Complete Guide has some examples brought up that support the idea that it's a worldline shift.Also, regarding things always ending up the same, Yoko Taro gave that explanation (pic is part of that discussion) in response to YoRHa ver 1.3aa which ended in kind of a crazy way that makes it seem impossible for Automata and everything else to happen. Accord kills the Red Girls. Yoko Taro says that even though things are different, no matter what. things will always turn out the same way.
>>498624295>Accord kills the Red GirlsWait. You mean the one in Nier Automata?
>>498624295Here's a couple pages from the DoD 3 Complete Guide discussion. Dumping in Japanese and Google translate.
>>498624431
>>498624562
>>498624672
>>498624419I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. There's a bunch of versions of the YoRHa stage play. The various versions of the stage play all cover the Pearl Harbor Descent Mission (i.e. A2's backstory) but they all seem to take place in different branches. YoRHa ver 1.3aa is the latest and most unusual version in that it used all-male casting (characters are still their canonical gender, casting is just switched) and it had Accord being involved in the plot.Webbum is a huge spoiler, so consider watching the stage play instead.
>>498625251Oh great.More stuff taking place outside of the games.I'm giving up on Nier and I'm focusing on Drakengard.
>>498624295...What happened to Osaka though?>YoRHa ver 1.3aa which ended in kind of a crazy wayI mean, there was really no need for Accord to do that. Red Girls would have done that by themselves.>things will always turn out the same way.Who is the dying Mayushii at the end of Nier?>>498624797I got lost.>Yes, I intentionally abandoned Yoko's understanding of the world a long time ago...And I'm not alone!>>498625251>all-male casting (characters are still their canonical gender, casting is just switched)...But why?!
>>498626125>he thinks Drakengard doesnt have important story outside of games
>>498626839Already read Utahime Five.I approve of Manah's greatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreataunt's ass.
You wake up to this, what do?
>>498632494Play with her!
>>498634863I would also play with her
>>498632494Garbage "cosplay"
>>498643779She can pat in return!
>>498646189And cook
>>498650795And steal clothes!.. Does it mean that 4S is supposed to wear that tattered half of Atoo's old dress?!
Live!
>>498644385
>>498644385…it can always be worse…
>>498652273Atoo certainly doesnt care about walking around with next to no clothes, looking at how in Rein she went around in very small pantsu and a babydoll top.
>>498668607maybe she just forgot to get fully dressed
https://twitter.com/mintdrakenier/status/1846618720107475408Accord's Library is being shut down by the end of this month. SE sent their legal team.
>>498672430thanks, i hate it but really, thanks for sharing anon :(
>>498672430it's over
>>498672430Well. Fuck.What's that software to save websites in an offline version?
>>498672430mint BOUGHT alot, is this the pinnacle of BUYING?I dont understand why now SE took legal action on a fan site? Specially on a franchise that they only remember to sell 2B figures and nothing more. I guess there are many books and stuff scanned that are being distributed ''ilegally'' and they want you to BUY them. But ALOT of CDs, books NEVER released TRANSLATED on the west, if they want more money they should release everything thats exclusive to Japan right now. If its to protect their IP and resources then WHY ARENT YOU MAKING OFFLINE VERSIONS OF SINO AND REIN ??Alot of DrakeNier media will become lost on the internet now
>>498680786Yeah, of all SQEX IPs I think it's strange that they focused on this site in particular. I'm starting to think this was orchestrated by some ebin troll.
>>498678048Httrack? Getleft?Dunno.
>>498626125>More stuff taking place outside of the games.Yoko Taro basically said it wouldn't be followed up on but that it doesn't matter cause it ends up the same way.
>>498672430They aren't making a public backup available. So grab what you want to save.
>>498495145>In the anime, 42S' final broadcast happened during the Machine attack on the Resistance camp in ep.11. That means he survived a lot longer than he did in the game, but I have no idea what Grun and Accord would do in ver1.1a. Grun was dealt with entirely off-screen, so maybe that's what Glasses Girl was busy with in the first season.>>498582857 (Me)So, I looked into it some more and the phrasing is almost exactly the same in Japanese. I think it's definitely plausible that the weapon story was recorded during the anime scene. I compiled materials together and wrote up a rentry for it.https://rentry.org/type-4OLanceSecret
What if Mikhail is still alive?
>>498702610What if your wife orbits my dick.
>>498702867rude
>>498672430Torrent of archive when?
>>498707941It seems lots of people are individually putting together efforts to archive it. The site owners themselves are not making a backup available in order to avoid legal trouble.
I wish gaming magazines covers were this good over here, tho i remember we had free dvd demos and even complete pc games as bonus for less than 5 bucks. 2013 was a better time
>>49871589090s and early 2000s had some pretty good magazines with in-house illustrators and stuff. That all died by the late 2000s as stuff like G4TechTV and internet resources started becoming the standard for gaming info. Game demos and stuff were great back then too. If I remember correctly, PSN used to come with demo disks that included demos of Japanese-only games.
>>498672430nigga damn wtf. >>498680786u sayin pic related is all his merch? fuck sqex are fucked in the head
>>498672430are you fucking kidding me
>>498672430lawyers must die
>>498707941>>498708941Internet Archive was killed by hackers aka the feds so now there's literally nowhere to host stuff like this
>>498725496There's archive.md but the rendering is kind of screwed up. I think you have to manually visit each of the pages on archive.md for them to get archived. It seems some people are doing it currently.https://archive.md/accords-library.comTyping space into the search bar I got>Library 263 results>Contents 1428 results>Wiki 342 results>News (no number listed, but 7 results shown?)>Videos 2114 results>Weapons 686 resultsThe "Library" results include scans which probably won't get caught by archive.md. Some of the videos are actually hosted on there and some are links to youtube. Currently archive.md says it's at 615 urls, so lots still missing.
>>498672430Fuck you, SQEX. That's bullshit.>"No, you can't host old garbage that was released 21 years ago and is no longer on sale, it's not allowed!"
>>498702610Nah. He got killed by a nuke and/ or went to the Sino Library to farm crystals until they EOS'd
>>498715890Now KISS

I'm really depressed about accord's library AND IA going down. I hate the internet
>>498766080maybe squeenix will release the pages of their out-of-print books as nfts to BUY…h-haha…ha…

>>498809926Needs spankings. A lot of them.
>>498809926Not Drakengard or a nier.
>>498813736She's only looking at the colors and drawings
>>498818408Wait for Nier 4 where the sinos are going to be part of main story like Emil in Automata, you are going to find their weapons somewhere or with someone and in Taro fashion if you max upgrade them the story is a clue to find their fairy tale book somewhere in the world (it wont appear if u dont max upgrade no cheating). When you pick a book each has a long side story about that sino and there is a separate open map with gameplay shifts, like having a big underwater map where u control Fishwife or Cindy gameplay being Diablo inspired or a unique alchemy system exclusive to Dorothy or game turning into an ero VN with Kags. When you collect all books you trigger a hidden story that explains how the sinos are connected to main plot but only as a prequel and lets the Nier 4 cast meet with them and realize what kind of world they truly are in. This hidden story which has the same production value as the main endings, leads to a hidden ending that if a player gets before ending E he would think he just got ending E and beat the game thus in Taro fashion he trolled the player again.
>>498822823shes a dummy but she's a cute dummy so its ok
>>498843117the oneth anniversary...
>>498818408sinos is neirs
>>498818408They're connected
I know it's harping on the same issue but I genuinely cannot get over Squeenix shutting down Accord's Library. It's really been bothering me a lot since I found out about it. I really hate these companies destroying things that people build, purely out of spite and greed.
>>498844915we still don't know how though...
>>498843117>firth
Yoko Taro has made a public statement regarding the closing of the Library.>>498847709Same, anon. I really have no idea what I'm supposed to do and what to save first. I'm also really afraid that the Ark and that one French Drakenier site might be next on the line. The end is near... The end of Nier...
>entire neir franchise ends>deletes your saved fileswhat did he mean by this
>>498864686
>>498856483SINoALICE has always been canon to NieR. The SINoALICE Drakengard 3 collab explained that the Library is a "phenomena" that came into existence because of the Catalysm, same event that brought the cathedral city into Drakengard timeline. The library is like a bubble universe containing many realities and the power to manifest ''desires'' into powerful magic but the library is floating around the World Tree of branches, which Accord refers to it as the Transitional World. The sino puppets are recorders made by "Group B" with the same technology or powers as Accord, they can travel between branches. Parrah and Noya were given the task to take control of the library to destroy human emotions but they also did many other experiments. Accord is fighting a multiverse war against Group B, Accord wants to preserve humanity in all branches while Group B wants to eradicate all life by destroying all branches. The first appearance of Group B was in the SINoALICE movie, go watch it its great for newcomers. Group B was also in the Automata anime's hex codes, they were the reason the anime was different from game. Also at some point the library was destroyed and saved at the same time, its just a shell devoid of power and life floating in the void now, during those final moments Accord took notice, entered it and recorded everything about it. Which then she copied into the moon server database of Automata, the library is shown in Reincarnation main story as part of the digital worlds inside the database. Its still unknown why Accord did this or for what purpose. Maybe if Rein wasnt rushed to EoS it could have played a bigger part. A theory could be to give back the remaining androids on Earth the technology to travel branches or learn more about Group B with puppet prisoners.
>>498872058This post is 95% speculation.
>>498872179There's nothing more disgusting than Porn addict Automata secondaries trying to act all elitist and shitting on Sinoalice for being ''''''not canon''''''. 99% of you never played Gestalt, worst of all one of the best moments and subplots in Automata (relating to Emil, the cavern of Lunar Tears and his outcome) is completely lost on 95% of the faggots playing the game because fucking filtered subhuman morons likely told them to skip Replicant and play Automata first. Go back to Nier leddit with cheap 2B cosplayers posting their onlyfans.At least the secondaries will never dare play Drakengard 1 because they know they will get filtered instantly.
>>498877132>clumsily attacking the poster instead of the postHe struck a nerve, huh.
>>498877132I played Sinoalice and I literally made the screenshot you posted. Your post is almost entirely speculation.
>>498881134 (Me)Just to clarify. I made the screenshot, not the translation. The original source is from The Worst Blog but the site went down a couple months ago while Cour 2 of NieR:Automata was airing.I linked screenshots of some of the other relevant SINoALICE x DoD3 material at the end of the hex code rentry I made.
>>498608107>resource pastebin https://docs.google.com/document/d/13MJypGK-BOMSaAVAxphhY_o5GBopXcB9Z0vVygxsweo/I made this ages ago and haven't been in the 'fandom' since. Seems like the accord library guys actually managed to recover a lot of materials but they banned any discussion of backups on their discord and are deleting the site. Archive as fast as you can anons because the resources in this thread aren't completely up to date and worst case scenario square enix might go for the youtube links.

>>498908896The people who BUY this shit don't care about the lore though.
>>498666927What about these?>>498912134The average Nier fan does care about lore, they BOUGHT and went to concerts just for a minute of new 2B 9S A2 moments. Thats all the lore they care about, they dont care what happends in the Taroverse if 2B isnt the MC.
>>498912134>>498917358surely one can do both? that said, i buy the books but skip almost all figures, so maybe you’re onto something… i think 2Brandon is still my favorite lol
>>498918929>surely one can do both?Only if you didnt start the series with Automata but there wasnt much merch before and after....
Actual statement from Toko Coco regarding the closure of Accord's Library.
>>498932932I cant believe he made Accord a drunktard like him! Now the timelines will be forgotten and will gradually dissapear from people's memories/hard drives, then when gen Z and Y die out no one will ever remember what even was Nier.
>>498945902How many do you want in the Intoner One family tree?
>>498949387Here's a better explanation of the family tree
>>498949387I only want adult Manah.
>>498949863what’s with all the created from rib stuff? just someone having fun throwing around biblical references, or is that actually mentioned specifically for some characters? rib stuff never came up in rein with the tree admins iirc. when Him created Her, it looked like the gacha summons
>>498953446You get evil digital Manah instead>>498960609Its Yoko Taro who puts biblical references across his works and yes its specifically mentioned in each game. But its also one of the themes of the franchise about cycles that repeat over and over. Intoner One was born from the flesh and memories of Zero. Brother One was born from one of Intoner One's ribs. The Tree admin used data of himself to create a twin, in this case data=flesh. Adam and Eve are the most on your face reference by Taro.
>>498949863DoD 1 didn't follow DoD 3, it followed the novelization where you don't have the intoners flowering. The gestalt terminal is powered by a maso engine but this doesn't seem to be the same as the Mother Angel's maso or perhaps it was purified somehow. Maso just means something like "magic particle" or "magicule" (the latter is how the slime isekai localizes it). The Gestalt terminal doesn't get integrated into the machine network. That directly contradicts Re[in]carnation where the She is still around and integrates N2.>>498960609The rib stuff is a reference Yoko Taro uses a lot to say that a character has created a copy of themselves. It probably doesn't mean much more (Adam/Eve excluded).For Adam and Eve, the explanation is that the machine network searched through human data and decided to create Adam based on the biblical Adam because he was made in the image of God. Eve was then created from Adam's rib but it happened subconsciously (Adam wasn't even aware of it). Adam views Eve as another Adam though, and the reason their personalities are so different is largely because Adam is panicking about not having anyone to learn from (and thus choosing humans to learn from) while Eve doesn't feel the same weight of responsibility and just plays along with Adam. The framing story for Automata (according to Yoko Taro) is Androids who have lost the thing they were meant to protect and machines who have lost their parents.Pod 153 and Pod 006 are also biblical references but Pod 042 is Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy and they're not really that meaningful.Most of the other biblical/gaijin references in the series are associated with angels/machines/bad guys basically and aren't really that meaningful except to hammer down the typical JRPG point that are the bad guys (standard fare in JRPG cause westoid concepts are associated with forced westernization/industrialization/etc..).The series seems to use more Shinto/Buddhism concepts throughout.
>>498963759>You get evil digital Manah insteadNice. But too small for spankings.
You have reasons to live!
Realistic Papa Nier doesn't exist, he can't MURDER you!
>>498979492do we? the only things on the horizon are more 2b merch, that Rein artbook, and that weird diner concert thing with taro.
>>498984064
Is there any way we can help with the Accord's Library salvage project?
>>498993562Mint posted some infohttps://x.com/mintdrakenier/status/1847057496634282122Basically though, everyone is scrambling to download content from the site or to get it archived on archival services. It's possible that archival services may get targeted by Square Enix as well though.Personally, I think the best thing we can do is archive everything and share it via Nyaa.The Accord's Library people have their hands tied by legal liability so they're not putting out a backup themselves and discussion is banned on their discord proper but it's being discussed in other places.
>>498994012They could do something in the background at least you'd think. Like work with archivists on the downlow
>>498994012We should really do that, because now all info is hidden on circlejerk discords. Reddit doesn't touch piracy because the mods want clout, so funnily 4chan is the only place easily searched publically. Especially after the internet archive is getting takedowns as well.To those who are hoarding info: maybe you got the books for yourself, but the next time you'll be looking for books you'll have to rely on paying import taxes from Japan because there won't be anyone else sharing scans.
>>499011483I wouldn't blame them if they were wary of doing anything in secret, the last thing you want is to give any ammunition to the massive company that could destroy your life without batting an eyelash.
>>498970723I thought you liked this gremlin
>>499025769I do. But for spankings, adults are better. They have more curves, an ass that can actually fill your hand, and high pain tolerance which means you can actually take out the belt or the paddle.Kids... just look at them and frown and they're already crying.
Don't give him attention.
I don't like this end of Nier... Can Accord start a better cycle, pretty please?
Someone should BUY SQEX.
>>499032267NO
>>499039597If you give me a small loan of 50 million dollars ill sit down with producer Saito and convince him of the puppets idea.
CUTE
Sinosisters SQEX is now going after us! Start archiving all sino databases like, sinoalice.game-db.tw, before they get hit by legal action!https://x.com/ThreeEyedGemini/status/1847676572150423790
>>498994012>>499047116I can't see the posts...
>>499051974>Apparently in the wake of the Accord's Library incident SE has also now started going after people archiving SINoALICE content on various websites. I would recommend that anyone interested in anything Taroverse starts making their own backups of whatever they can find.
>>499051974
>>499067794Fuck fuck fuck fuck
>>499047116I told them and told them and told them on the discord that they needed an external archive for Sino db
/tarog/ the [E]nd of data
>>499080939Why does everything I love die
Breed Yonah
>>499082321
>>499062958>>499067794It's ogre...
The next thing SQEX is going to do is to lobotomize everyone who has ever read anything Taro-related for the sin of remembering. After that, they are going to close every game that had a Robutt collab for abusing the image of Holy Toobie. After that, they are going to raid every house, every room that has Automata merch, seize it, and kill the owners. There is not much time, sons of man.
>>499110729They can't do that, it's illegal!
>>499062958>>499067794so how long until everything related to rein is deleted from the interwebs? Are people's youtube videos still there?
>>499113153They are sending their Illegal Teams.
SQEX already killed me
So any news on those backups? Don't tell me it's really every man for himself while some group circlejerks in their private chat
>>499120654Then we won't tell you.
>>499120654what else is it gonna be? no-one's gonna put them up online while squenix have got their lawyers all warmed up and ready to annihilate people breaking copyright.
>>499113364Youtube videos will be fine but rein guide will prob shut down aswell in the near future.
>>499132831who that
>>499132831What would they even gain from closing archives of CLOSED games? Is it just an example of corporate autism?
>>499133026Saryu the witch, she's a student of Taro's Hogwarts and is harrassed by a lesbian despite her being hetero.
>>499137180She needs spankings.
>>499135981Iirc it's because copyright law sucks, you can't just let little things like this go because it sets a precedent that someone else could use to "steal" bigger things.

>>499018381>>499120654>>499126207Discord is easy to organize in unlike an anonymous website like this. I have joined one such discord server in an attempt to find other people who are also archiving.I have archived a lot of things, including most of the main website, v3 website, all of the gallery, img, resha.re etc. which I'll be writing a guide on how to run in a rentry eventually. (https://files.catbox.moe/auee7w.mp4)There are more archival sites than just internet archive such as archive.ph which we are using, along with making local copies of the archive.ph pages.There are less tech savvy people in here who are just copying translated books and whatnot to Google Docs. Basically what I'm saying is, most of everything is safe, stop acting like a massive faggot. Nobody is hoarding the data, we're still collecting and fixing what's broken.I'll put up a torrent on nyaa once I've got everything ready but I can't seed it for long, a week at best maybe. My internet connection isn't very good nor do I have something akin to a seedbox.
Hello there, recently started playing Automata. I remember back then /v/ used to talk a lot about the game, but I could't play due to lack of a computer or console good enough to play it. Judging by the state of this general, nobody cares anymore about the game but did the company behind the game ever release anything else?
>>499170874I do care about it, and not really. There's a remake of Nier called Nier Replicant, but the rest are mobile games, like Sinoalice or Nier Reincarnation.
>>499171471What are they doing now? Are they preparing anything new or did they fall into irrelevance? Sad when I get into popular things too late.
>>499170874
>>499171735We are in the endless 2B merch timeline, that means that Taro has been whoring 2B due to her popularity to anyone that wants her and gives him money. Many companies and other games ofc want 2B popularity and Automata became mainstream so there are alot of fans that BUY anything. This has given Taro enough money to keep eating and drinking until he dies without having to do anything. He was forced by SQEX to make the 2 gachas in exchange for money for Replicant remake, something Taro wanted to do. After that Nier related, he milked the Automata train again with an anime that finished this year only to sell more 2B merch. Also couple Nier concerts, one still ongoing with new short stories that he wrote. But now that the 2 taroverse gachas died this year, which was the only thing bringing new stuff into the franchise yet alot of the fanbase ignored due to mobile gaming hate, there is nothing now. Taro has hinted he is working on something not nier related, hopefully AAA game unlike the card games, but he is known to troll his fans.
>>499170874>nobody cares anymore about the gameI like Replicant way more. I can't say that Tomato is "bad", but it's definitely a lot weaker than the original.
>>499186415
>>499192250Automata's twins look more fuckable.These pants need to be lowered to their knees, for some anal.
>>499171735>Are they preparing anything new lol
/tarog/ has been pretty miserable lately, but how about sharing some fun things from Accord’s Library while we have the chance? https://accords-library.com/contents/dod-8bit-video
>>499227159we wouldnt be as miserable if bad things started happening
>>499228132anon, be honest, are you drunk? https://accords-library.com/contents/super-space-time-character-exchange-roundtable-in-shinjuku

>>499236501>/tarog/ has been especially miserable latelyis that better?
>>499237648Yeah, that sounds better...
Do you guys also like Dark Souls games?
>>499240669A little. I didn't play the games, but I like their lore and music.
>>499242435>I didn't play the gamesWhy not.

>>499253012>>499257131Gacha cuckery.
>>499263313Still better than being cucked by literal food.
>>499266475At least you can eat the food and be happy. Gacha never brings happiness.
>>499267459but we don't eat the food... he does. and now we don't even have gachas to cuck us. cucked out of gachas and cucked out of food by the madman
>>499267459i wouldn’t say never…!
>>499266475Did anyone even tell him about the Library?
>>499267459>Gacha never brings happinessIm very happy to have met my wife and i always made sure i had enough to get every version of her if not gacha through medals, i had pure bliss each new stuff about her plus sino was kino despite the flaws. Im also happy i still have my account thanks to the offline version.I wouldnt mind paying masketa man rent if there was the same amount of Fishwife figures as 2B does, but since he didnt im not giving him anything. I havent bought anything Nier since Remake and i was f2p on Rein.
>>499272452If you mean the sino Library, that came from Toko's mind. He created the setting/scenario
>>499272452To be fair, even if someone had told him about the legal situation of the site I bet some autist highly likely did it he wouldn't comment on it because corporate policy.We just like to meme about it because he's always so gleefully disconnected from what fans want to hear from him. And that's probably for the best
>>499208362Why is that?
>>499274836we just don't know. You'd think he'd HAVE to be working on a big project after all this time but nothing has been announced so we're all in limbo
>>499274836Yoko Taro just seems to want to make anything but a new game (stupid card and gacha games don't count) and square enix are retarded and only care about final fantasy.
>>499273837>he wouldn't comment on it because corporate policy>cut to "Kuso Square Enix!">cut to making CEOs killableHm.>>499275345I thought Saito, Keiichi and Koko were working on something-maybe-Nier-related-hee-hee....It was the dining concert, wasn't it.
>>499281759Both of those were made on official communication and actually done in-game, respectively.He refrains from talking or commenting about anything related to his employers on his personal gourmet account.
>>499281759Yeah, they seem to be working on two projects and one is not NieR and the other "might be might not be NieR". I suspect they're going to announce things next year during the 15th anniversary. The last set of games and stuff were announced during the 10th anniversary.
>>499289590Nobody will be around by that time... Everyone will be already gone because of SQEX's Illegal Teams...
>>499289590>I suspect they're going to announce things next year during the 15th anniversary.The only thing he's going to announce is the ramen he will eat later that day. Get off the copium.
Taro forgot about Drakengard's 20th anniversary and Drakegard 3's 10th anniversary, what makes you think he's gonna remember?
>>499294968Why would he do anything for DoD's anniversaries? He only does stuff for NieR anniversaries.
>>499294968>>499296703i get the impression he’s done with people expecting him to remember anniversaries at all
Does anyone know if there's an easy-ish way to tweak Grabber for it to work with Accord's gallery, and if it's even worth it? I think I'll save the pictures faster myself, one by one, compared to all the time dealing with codes and plugins and whatnot. I am too old and stupid to learn this shit.
>>499297792He should be done expecting to get money from (Me).
>>499313861Didn't get a sino gravestone.

>>499372115You just know that they all take turns, with two of them waiting outside his room while muffled screams are heard from insane, along with words like "slow down", or "not so deep", and muffled moans of pleasure.Then the door opens, and another one goes in, and the screaming starts again.
>>499329039Despite Doro being a neet nerd whenever she goes outside she wears next to nothing, why is that?

Abit offtopic but, SEGA is suing a japanese gacha company that made Memento Mori over patent infringement. TLDR SEGA is saying they own the patent of an alchemy system and a gacha system with pity system. If SEGA wins this case it would mean that SEGA is the only japanese company that can release a japanese product with those 2 elements. So SEGA would be the only ones that can make a japanese made gacha game. https://automaton-media.com/articles/newsjp/sega-boi-20241021-315258/

Any /tarog/ rec games?
>>499508938I really like that NieR series, have you heard about it?
>>499507652Would fuck until she can't walk anymore.
>>499511132
>>499519143Works with Manah in Drakengard 2 too.Aka my waifu.
>>499519143>>499492196i hope Fio eventually gets a good ending…
>>499525378I already start to think that the best ending Fio can get is if nothing happens at all... Just let her play clapping games with Girl Admin and 10H and leave it at that... No more games...
>>499521574Manah is not an innocent character
>>499526130You leave my waifu alone, it's her mother's fault for hitting her.
>>499525635you’re probably right, but it’d be kind of sad if she and Levania don’t get to see each other again
>>499528334>Levania gets reincarnated>His human form looks like a shojo prince
>>499532541so basically Rion?
>>499536007Like very tall Rion! Probably with black hair too.
>>499536007Needs spankings!!
>>499538638Stop it. Get some help. It's not funny anymore.
>>499539224>not even denying it>attacks the poster instead of the postSo you admit it, I see.
Return to fish and you will only worry about hunting food, not being eaten and fucking, lots of fucking to have alot of children.
>>499544541But mermaids are literally unspankable, so... no.
>>499536528Fio would make a cute sailor senshi…!>>499544815not with that attitude!
>>499547295Fio is sort of one already, isn't it? Just need to find a pretty seifuku for her.
>>499548359 heh, she would be Sailor Moon Server
>>499549139Yep-yep!...On the other hand, wouldn't 10H be better as Sailor Moon Server? Hm...
>>499549519hmm, then one of them will have to be Sailor Chibi-Moon Server lol
>>499551970I want offline Rein...
>>499553429that would be nice…
>>499554163And it should have playable Sixo! With a cool staff! Doing magick tricks with Saryu!
>>499557452>magick tricksnow i want to know what clown operators would have looked like…they really should have done more crossovers…
there's some news on the Accord's Library situation. I don't have the tweet but they said basically everything's saved, and they're just trying to find a way to upload it. It's like 300 gigabytes
>>499560501They'd look really cool, I bet... For some reason, I think 21O would be a sad clown, like Pierrot.
>>499569674This is a new poster you can BUY
>>499564731they still look sad when they smile >>499569674this is how i imagine fishbro and spoonker-kun fighting for fetish supremacy
>>499576141Both fetish are part of /tarog/ culture. We just tell each other to calm down sometimes but mostly respect, so there is no war. Its another anon that doesnt like spoonker, >>499544541 this was meant to show its not worth fighting here.
>>499576141>this is how i imagine fishbro and spoonker-kun fighting for fetish supremacyLewd.
>>499587071>not worth fighting heregood, then i’m glad i misunderstood! >>499563836wow, good news?!
>>498608107Red's cute butt!!
>>499576141That's because they don't get enough hugs...>this is how i imagine fishbro and spoonker-kun fighting for fetish supremacyI chuckled. Never change, doll-anon.>>499593670...I instantly imagined 4S on the right. Oh no. It fits them!
>>499612371who the fuck is 4S
>>499615862One of the few other Yorhas that survived. Friend of Nines.
>>499616432Oh, from the anime?
>>499616490No, from the game. He has a quest in Route C.
>>499616750>fucking twink has a quest>mah waifu in automata doesn't
>>499619049Who is your waifu, anon?
>>499620026The one in the middle under the arrow.
>>499620101I know her!
>>499620353No, that one has a secretary skirt, not a poofy ballet-like skirt.
>>499620390She could have worn a less frilly skirt in ver.1.1a...
>>499620519I refuse to believe it.
>>499621238Yorhas are allowed to change clothes! It's their hairstyle and hair color that distinguishes them.
>>499621712>Yorhas are allowed to change clothesAre you sure about this?
>>499621864Yes!
>>499622103How come I never see 2B wear Manah's outfit then?
>>499624143Blame SQEX. Zero was allowed to wear Caim's, Nier's, Kaine's and Manah's clothes.
>>499625080Zero is a slut and the prototype of what 2B became. They initially thought Zero would be a big icon and would sell alot of merch, which is why the aggresive monetization of DoD3 with alot of skins DLC and dumb hats for Mikhail you barely can see in his flying missions. The thing is those skins except Kaine one actually made Zero less of a slut by covering her up and its only for the diehard fans plus in ps3 era digital goods werent the norm or acceptable outside of preorder bonuses.
>>499625080I feel cheated. If only I had a working Manah models...
Don't die.
>>499629346But zero IS a slut.
>>499629346>Zero would be a big icon and would sell alot of merchAnd now she is only known as the burger girl...>covering her upIt might be just me, but I never thought of Zero's dress as revealing or lewd or anything. Yes, there's a huge tummy window, but it doesn't look like a deliberate attempt to make Zero hotter. It's just there and it looks pretty on her. IMO, the skins' main problem is that neither of them really fit Zero as a character. Honestly, that's my problem with all the reused Kaine/Nier costumes. Make something new, like in Gestalt or Replicant! Samurai sets were cool as hell!>in ps3 era digital goods werent the norm or acceptable outside of preorder bonusesThose were the good times...
>>499629346Zero is more a A2 prototype(and Kaine but that was canon)
>>499642304The chicken girl
>>499648839I am really hungry.And Taro won't share a single instant ramen!
>>499417920Googled around and found this summary of the patents. Doesn't really sound like a big deal to me.
>>499648839forced meme
>>499642304>I never thought of Zero's dress as revealing or lewdWell the dress got shortened and opened more her belly and cleavage for maximum sexyness. She also originally was gonna have a exposed leotard with high stockings (before 2B). They did thought of making the intoners as sexy megucas. >reused Kaine/Nier costumesYou can bet for certain any new game or gacha is gonna have preorder or launch bonuses of replicant/automata skins which is pretty boring now. They didnt even add DoD costumes for Remake. I agree about creating something new but aswell now that there is sino and rein id like them to take advantage of those. But normies only know 2B>>499648026Well in the context of marketing. Original Nier was very ugly so very hard to waifubait for merch, even if Kaine's design is lewd. DoD3 had very pretty faces and a great female cast.>>499653880Big corpos are retarded
>>499659660>Well the dress got shortened and opened more her belly and cleavage for maximum sexynessYes, but... in the end, it somehow turned out not lewd at all. I guess it's because Zero is so pale that all those open parts just don't register as being erotic. DESU, I only recently noticed that tummy window. That's how safe Zero is in my eyes.>She also originally was gonna have a exposed leotard with high stockings...I'm glad this design wasn't chosen. It's really not that great.>They didnt even add DoD costumes for RemakeYes, that's pretty sad. And the Automata DLC costumes weren't that good either. You can only use Boy Nier's Scanner costume for a limited time, Adult Nier's costume is a little bland, Kaine's A2 costume is ugly, and her 2B dress is the only one that is somewhat decent. Emil didn't get any costume at all. Amazing selection, right?>now that there is sino and rein id like them to take advantage of thoseEhhh. There were so many Sino jobs and so many Rein costumes that it'd be hard to pick the single best ones to put into the game.>Original Nier was very uglyThis is really funny to me because I've seen several people praising Gestalt for better faces compared to the remake. Like, yeah, sure...
>>499629346the problem is dod3 is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and zero being a slut is extra off-putting for people who like pure girls
>>499680158>the problem is dod1 is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and caim being a murderer is extra off-putting for people who like pure guys>the problem is dod2 is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and nowe being a dummy is extra off-putting for people who like smart boys>the problem is nier is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and kaine being a hussy is extra off-putting for people who like pure girls>the problem is automata is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and 2b being a robutt is extra off-putting for people who like real girls>the problem is rein is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and fio being a sweetheart is extra off-putting for people who like rude girls>the problem is sino is an off-putting game in general at least for normies and everyone being a slut is extra off-putting for people who like pure girls
>>499686963other than automata all of that is true. Automata has the lowest barrier for entry because toobs is not a psychotic slut or severely mentally ill
>>499686963Funny that you mention it, because I've described the sino experience and its premise to a bunch of people, and everyone liked or at least found the idea interesting until they heard about the gacha kusoge part
>>499687143>toobs is not a psychotic slut or severely mentally illI'm not sure any android qualifies as "not psychotic" or "mentally stable" in Automata...
>>499687143>toobs is not a psychotic slutAre you sure about this?
>>499688384Sino had a larger than average girl population base, which makes sense because the waifus don't really hit traditional waifu beats other than Snow, who's main flaw can be easily glossed over. The main character is used goods and that's a dealbreaker for a lot of people.
>>499694354The average sino player

>>499740543ded
>>499729610buuuurn
>>499732472The film lacked 40mins extra with best girlfishwife that was part of the launch cast and there is no excuse for why she didnt get a 3d model!
>>499759641She was the first post-launch sino but she was so close to launch that it's weird to think about her as not part of the original crew. Her design stuff even came out around the same time as the others iirc. I think it's kind of annoying that in the big final sendoff to the brand (hopefully not though god willing) they didn't bother to go all in and just put everybody in, even if they were just cameo roles.
>>499759817Exactly the only reason fishwife didnt release at launch was bcoz they held her captive for a couple months since they needed something for the ''monthly gacha game content pipeline''. I think the movie does a good job at introducing the library,puppets and how some sinos represent a human desire. The theater part was really short and could have had everyone there and we should have had Snow vs Ibara and Kags fucking Pino. Yet the movie doesnt flesh out the sinos except Arisu Gretel did absolutely nothing in the movie, barely you can see him and he didnt even get a proper introduction, so the movie was mostly for fans that already knew the sinos and the movie wouldnt need to waste time on that. Which is the problem with movies with big casts, people lack context to care for x character and movie has no time for that and the big bad problem for the characters to face at only 2hours runtime.
Drakengard 4 looking weird.
>>499768391Finally cyber dragons, time to dress the dragon with 2B's leotard
>>499773587About time.I hate that this game constantly crashes because it's really fun. Imagine Empire at War mixed with Drakengard.

>>499791681Laputan machine.Sticks and stones.
>>499768391i loved dragon commander but it was woefully undercooked. the strategy game part was boring but the actual shooter was okay, and then the part everybody remembers was the VN stuff. I wish they'd been better at balancing it but I think they just ran out of money. Wish we'd gotten the goblin girl too
>>499794192The strategy part feels like Empire at War, so I kinda like it, but you are right, it does feel undercooked.
