How the fuck can anyone enjoy this? I like the combat, but other than that everything is shit. Side quests are incredibly dull, world and exploration is trash, no really interesting characters, the story is so fucking uninteresting. The music is pretty good I guess, but it gets repetitive quick. In general, the whole thing is just such a fucking chore to play through

Felt the same way initially. Guess it kinda grew on me

It's the eva of video games. As in retards experience it once and think they are philosophers

>Shit taste.
Keep playing you dunce or don't your loss.

Three reasons:
- You can uninstall your own OS chip when playing around with your upgrades and get a game over at any time
- You can buy achivements with in game money
- A bit of meaningless tutorial/game settings dialogue ends up coming back hours later in a really interesting way

>Tutorial dialogue
What specifically?

>muh toobie
>2 booty xD
Literally built for coom brains

Calibration with 9S

The game explained the setting very poorly. I thought people from the resistance were humans, not androids. I thought Yorahs were the only droids there.
Then I have to read several wikis just to grasp what a gestalt is, or what the fuck happened thousands of years ago

when 2B is having her/the games audio settings being readjusted on the bunker after the opening mission, if you pick the option that there's something soothing about 9S's voice, when you play as 9S and go through that scene again there's an extra bit of internal dialogue as he gets all confused about it

plus, how long it takes you/what your inputs were as you pick the settings is reproduced when you play as 9S, so if you sat there on purpose listening to 9S get more and more awkward as he tries to see if you can hear him, you have to sit there and wait through all that again.

The storyline is pretentious garbage for people that have never read a book.

I hadn't played anything with any type of Japanese light wackiness in it for a very long time, so there was that.

I hated the RNG of Emil's store

nier automata's success and popularity is less to do with the game itself (which is good, but not ~that~ good) and more to do with the fact that it's the first time a AA-budget (if not just A-budget) japanese game with a weirdo plot and gameplay mechanics got mainstream appeal. it hasn't been since the ps1/early ps2 era that those kind of games could actually have mainstream success instead of just big cult success in america, and it's all because square enix advertised the shit out of this game because they had literally nothing else to market at the time.

>because they had literally nothing else to market at the time.

Wasn't FFXV coming out pretty close to Automata's release?

I base Nier Automata's success on having ass and an incredibly satisfying dodge system. Shame of all the actual enemies you fight there's only like, 4 good ones in the game. Most of those being against other androids.

>an incredibly satisfying dodge system
Yeah bro how satisfying is to spam a single key and became immortal because you become literally invincible and nothing can kill you unless you attack something

Coliseum special trials are fucking insane, shame there is no more post game content.

>I have to read several wikis just to grasp what a gestalt is
user. Its a sequel to a game. Its your fault.
>I thought the people from the resistance were humans not androids
Pay attention

Imagine having this many bad opinions in a row.

I'm glad normies fucking bounce off this game the way they do. Feels good man.

Faggots that play late after reading into hype should be shot. You're all fucking retarded

>normies
Go back

Maybe cause it was explained in the game prior to this. Automata is a sequel you stupid cunt

It's so easy to pick them out too. Seething retards the lot of them

>all humans on earth are dead
>the last remnants live on the Moon Base
>oh but the resistance people are humans also but we don't care about them because they're filthy grounders
Seriously, nigga?

r/nier has 100k users. game is a normalfag magnet

Actually I'm really glad I didn't pay $60 for it lmao

>The game explained the setting very poorly.
Brainlet filter.

>Reddit
Opinion discarded
Neither did I, still knew what I was getting into cause I'm not a retard though

Yes reddit loves the game, cope harder

>Doubles down on being a fucking retard.
100k out of how many people that bought the game? It's a fucking drop in a lake. Retard

So does Zig Forums, what's your point

Don't bother, the tourist will just go
