It's kind of awe inspiring, is this literally just Yoko Taro making these calls? At some level you have to respect the hustle.

That's more than Metal Gear Solid 4, the Final Fantasy 7 Remake (through 2023, at least), any Fire Emblem game, any Kirby game, any Megaman game (by a lot), any Persona game, all the Final Fantasy Tactics games combined, any Pikmin game, or any Metroid game. It's huge for an RPG, getting numbers that even Final Fantasy has to respect, and a lot of it comes down to 2B, with her design drawing people in, and her combat style and role in the story keeping them long enough to get hooked. Makes sense she'd get a lot of cameos.

Still blows my mind that a sequel to a niche game like Nier blew up this hard. As someone who was obsessed with the original for years, never saw that coming lol

9S qualifies as a robot rear end so it’s really only one.

Unless you want to count the mobile game (which you probably shouldn’t). But yeah, it is odd they haven’t announced a Nier 3 or even a Drakengard 4 by now despite Automata doing fairly well as I recall. Has Yoko Taro even done anything notable since then for that matter (assuming he stlll works for Square)? Larryb fucked around with this message at 01:08 on Feb 27, 2024 |

3 incorporated some more Nier-esque combat into it right? But yeah, a remake with better controls/combat could be nice At least the original Drakengard had some weird rear end concepts going for it (like giant cannibal space babies), not sure if you could salvage anything from 2 Larryb fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Feb 27, 2024 |

It was a pretty substantial project.

I mean, there's tons of story in there. yoko taro doesn't do more work when the gameplay is like automata vs when it's like reincarnation, does he?

Pretty sure he mentioned in an interview (jokingly or not who knows) that PlatinumGames was so good at their job he had nothing to do. I'm paraphrasing and It's Yoko Taro but I'm sure there's a hint of truth there.
