Calaveron posted:Wonder what he thinks about botw If I recall he was interviewed around the same time the release date for the Switch was released (with it being very close to the Japanese release date for Automata), which went something like Interviewer: "What were your first thoughts on the switch" Yoko Taro: "I realized that it and the new Zelda release within a few weeks of Nier: Automata, and I am now dead." Interviewer: "Are there any features of the Switch which excite you?" Yoko Taro: "I do not know, because I am dead."

I had sold them and finally gathered enough of them before I discovered that Yoko Taro doesn't lie about consequences.

I believe TDI drunkenly messaged Yoko Taro about his Nier LP and how he's getting more people to buy the game, and then Yoko Taro (probably also drunk off his rear end) sent a thank you with a bunch of Nier merch

Episode LIII: Missing in Action Music: City Ruins (Shade - Dynamic) .jpg) We find ourselves in the 100 yard span of land designated as the Flooded City. This will be the last time we’ll be here for a main plot relevant purpose before we hit NieR: Automata’s first ending. .jpg) Now that we have the Dynamic Scanner, we can use Pod 042 to track down 9S. Or... you know, any other heavily injured YoRHa android in the area. I suppose we can be a team player and help them out as well. You hanging in there, bud...? .jpg)  You got hit by an EMP blast.  I... I don’t remember anything... Don’t worry. I sent out a rescue signal to the Bunker.  We are currently searching for a missing YoRHa unit, designation 9S. Should you possess any information on the subject, please disclose it at once. I’m sorry... I... I don’t know anything. That’s okay. Just stay here and rest. W-who am I...?.jpg) Well, that was a bust. However, the Scanner has picked up another signal close by on the other end of this platform. Two signals, actually. One belongs to another damaged YoRHa android. However, much more pressingly is a hidden item pick-up. .jpg) Oh poo poo, son! I cannot believe Caim lost this thing again. That murder machine idiot! .jpg) Iron Will, also occasionally called Iron Will posted:
.jpg) The poor thing has tragically rusted into complete poo poo. Even if we upgraded it to Level 4, not even the sage blacksmith Masamune can do anything for the old boy. This is it. This is Iron Will now. A rusted hunk of dull iron. This might be the most tragic thing in all of NieR: Automata.  I suppose we don’t have time to lament a once proud murder instrument’s decay. We should probably check on that dying android it was rusting next to and perhaps find that bozo 9S. .jpg) Don’t worry, I’m— N-no... Get away from me! I don’t like the look of you! Proposal: remove fear functionality. No! Stay away! I hate you! I... hate... Sorry to startle you. Just stay here and wait for help. Urrrgh... ...... So... scared....jpg) .jpg) Well, that didn’t help any. I suppose maybe we ought to have started in the portion of the Flooded City with the main objective hotspot marker. But first, let’s swing back around behind the western most part of the region. We kinda avoided this earlier so as not to trigger the next story beat until necessary. But now that the Grün business has been sorted out, we can explore back behind here to find... .jpg)  There is absolutely NOTHING of value here! So don’t let it distract you and run along now! Hmmm... but I can’t just send you off empty-handed, now can I? I’d love to give you a souvenir of some kind, but I have nothing on me right now. What to do, what to do...? ...... I know! I shall self-destruction for your convenience! This will result in a rain of useful materials. They are yours to keep! Ah yes, fortune smiles upon you today! Once you’ve collected my gifts, please forget everything you saw here. That’s a promise, you hear? Goodbye!.jpg) Machine Lifeforms are strange creatures. Anyhow, another inaccessible elevator is located back here. It’s a DLC hook we’ll be exploring at a much later date. .jpg) For now, let’s return to our investigation into finding the missing 9S. There’s one final injured YoRHa member slumped against a bus at the end of this area. This is actually the only YoRHa android we need to investigate to progress the mission. Let’s see what her deal is... .jpg) Pod, employ a check module and a logic-virus vaccine.  Nnngh... Easy. I’ve contacted the Bunker. They should be here soon. Th-thank you... We are currently searching for a missing YoRHa unit, designation 9S. Should you possess any information on the subject, please disclose it at once. Please. Anything will help. 9S... That’s that kid who was with you, right? I saw him, all right. That explosion sent him flying... Which direction? Hard to say... I’ll take my best guess at a landing spot and transfer the data to you. Thank you. You should stay here until the rescue team arrives. Target location data obtained. Marking on map. Nnngh....jpg) Alright, where do we have, Pod? Ergh... That’s not really helpful... This world map isn’t great. Hmph. Let’s try shifting it a bit to see if we can get a better bearing. .jpg) Oh... huh... That’s the City Ruins sinkhole. Like in the mines leading to the Alien Mothership where we last saw Adam and Eve ages ago. That... is a long and very specific area to get flung. That cannot be good... .jpg) Alright, then. Next stop: The City Ruins sinkhole and hopefully 9S semi-intact. It won’t be the same to yell at an earlier back-up copy of 9S if we need to get a new one. He technically would have had nothing to do with ramming a missile into a giant robot’s mouth right next to 2B. That’s the trouble with constructing back-up androids if the old one dies. You cannot even yell at them for their gently caress-ups! It’s a huge morale hit... .jpg) Alert: Faint black box signal detected. The transmission seems to be coming from an underground cave network.Music: Widespread Illness (Quiet) .jpg) .jpg) The same machines from our first visit to these caverns are still hanging out. They’re stuck to Level 10-15 so 2B can just look at them funny and they’ll just self-detonate at this point. However, there are some new additions to the caves this go around... .jpg) Just a few bound and flayed android corpses decorating the path. No big deal. Maybe Simone over in the Amusement Park had some spares left over and the machine lifeforms just wanted to spruce up the drab mines. It’s probably fine! .jpg) No black box signals detected..jpg) If we attempt to head towards the buried alien spaceship, Pod 042 will inform us we’re going the wrong way. Nope. 9S isn’t there. That alien ship is never relevant or necessary to visit ever again. Forget about the aliens. They were just set dressing. .jpg) Remember our first trip through these mines we found an alternate path leading to a locked elevator that I told you to remember for later. Guess what? It’s later... .jpg) Alert: Possible enemy ambush ahead. Don’t care..jpg) We’ve come this far. We’re not heading back. We’re gonna scold 9S for nearly blowing us up, dammit!  Music: ENDS .jpg) The elevator starts heading down. Far. Like really far... It’s a good 20 second descent and seems like it’s moving a decent clip. And at the bottom floor we find... .jpg) Urgh...? Pod, is 2B’s eyes malfunctioning and she can no longer see colors? No... that doesn’t make sense. You and the elevator are still in color. Then what is...? .jpg) Ergh...? Come again...? .jpg) .jpg) .jpg) ... ...... ...What the gently caress?

It's called the copied city. Clearly somebody 3D-Printed part of the original city, and then stuck it deep underground and forgot to paint it.

Yay, Copied City! This place has my favorite music in the whole game. There are a lot of strong contenders - Amusement park, Birth of a Wish, a Beautiful Song, and a lot of others that we have or haven't heard yet - but Copied City is my preferred one.

Well, this should be interesting. Usually white, blank, semi block-y cityscapes are computer simulations. If this isn't one, I've got this odd mental image of a giant 3-d printer.The Dark Id posted:That’s a promise, you here?
