Just played the demo, which was a fairly linear action level. Is the main game mostly in that vein or is it more open worldish?

warhammer651 posted:More open worldy with Standard action levely bits in between, along with some classic SHMUP and twin stick shooter bits. Ok cool. Poor as gently caress so gonna just gamefly both this and horizon zero dawn next week, maybe keep 1 of the two if some seems more likely than the other to still be playing after a month.

Got this delivered on a Gamefly rental today, really loving it so far. Tried hard mode out because I didn't really like using lock-on anyway, died a whole bunch, then decided to just play normal but unbind lock-on to have a second evade button.

SatansBestBuddy posted:That's a good game, but it's emotionally draining as hell. Good to hear that. Early enough in right now that I can see things starting to go in interesting directions but not far in enough to know how well it executes the stuff it's setting up.

Just finished route A. Real loving good so far. Kind of curious like what % of the game's main story route A comprises though. Also, does anyone have a high res screenshot of the final shot in Route A's ending of 2B standing on Machine-9S's hand? Want to make it my new desktop wallpaper.

Archer666 posted:I just had a long talk with a friend regarding Adam and it kinda threw me for a loop. Mostly what his motivation and reason for doing what he's doing through the game. Spoilers for route B and everything relating to Adam. I think he's driven by hatred in that he desires hatred, rather than him currently harboring hatred

KamikazePotato posted:Also random side: props to 9S for being an android that people repeatedly say is not built for combat, who then proceed to kick the poo poo out of everything in the game It's only mentioned in one of the side stories that wasn't officially translated, but scanner models are literally not even supposed to be able to wield a weapon and use that telekinetic combat poo poo the combat models get, he reprogrammed himself to be able to.

The ps4 update news is kind of disheartening. Kind of wanted to start a fresh playthrough this weekend but I guess I'll be waiting.

rio posted:Was 9S's nickname something that each version of him remembered or something that just that last one came up with? Former seems more likely since a Scanner unit in a route C/D quest knows about the nickname and asks if he can call 9S that.

TaurusOxford posted:I thought the same for a while, and while Persona 5 has topped it for me, Nier: Automata is a CLOSE second. This but slightly reversed for me. Horizon and BotW and maybe RE7 aren't far behind them, but it's a clear Nier #1 Persona #2 for me this year so far.

Weight of the World doesn't always have that effect on me, but vague hope (cold rain) definitely does. Even without having gone through nier1 yet Kaine's theme has that effect too after doing the gathering keepsakes quest.

The English voice acting is pretty good. Kyle McCartney does an amazing job as 9S through route C.

Cymbal Monkey posted:It does not deserve the hype. It doesn't get better, and as mentioned above the combat is super tedious. OTOH I found the combat kind of relaxing without being too tedious, and it's pretty easily my GOTY with only P5 and Yakuza Zero really coming close.

It's pretty obvious by like halfway into route A that 2B has some sort of feelings or attachment towards 9S particularly and that "emotions are prohibited" is less of a rule that YorHa androids actually follow than it is a mantra 2B repeats to keep herself detached.

ConfusedUs posted:I'm a few hours into the game, and I wouldn't describe 2B as an "unfeeling murderbot" at all. Maybe in the intro segment, but after that...not so much. "Nothing machines do have meaning" is basically to 9S what "emotions are prohibited" is to 2B. Something that is technically YorHa's position on something, but primarily repeated by 9S/2B as a personal mantra to keep themselves focused on the job despite conflicting emotions.

Just got to the second half of nier:r and (probably not really much of a spoiler but just to be safe) Zach Aguilar and Ray Chase do a good job of sounding like the same person at two different ages.

beep by grandpa posted:Something I noticed in my many runs through Shadowlord castle is in the second battle with Devola and Popola, during the first phase of the fight against Delova, Popola just stands around in the background for a while and eventually starts powering up Devola by doing some really cool dance numbers in the back. I really enjoyed watching her dancing - she has a ton of different moves! And I think the start of her dancing may be timed to only start with the vocal tracks kick in to the fight, but I'd need to go back and try it again. Really cool! This rules so much and on my recent run I basically took the fight as slow as possible to see how many different moves she goes through

Ainsley McTree posted:Just to be clear on what I need to do to get Ending E (no overly-specific spoilers please); I looked up a no-spoiler guide and it sounds like all I need to do is start a new save file, and somewhere along the way in part 1 I'll be given the opportunity to make a choice; is this moment going to be extremely obvious, or do I need to do anything special or potentially missable to make it happen? I'm trying not to look into it too closely so I go in fresh, but I also want to make sure that I don't accidentally whizz right past it and do a full, normal playthrough of part 1 again by mistake it's very obvious when that moment is there

Tarezax posted:They shoulda been more hardcore like the Ar Tonelico music peeps and made an entire functioning language. And add a new one for every game in the series. In this case having the words not mean anything is the intent though. It's just about having vocal sounds without any actual "lyrics" because words are distracting.
