The dude really said "my liver is acting up and if I went to Germany I'd drink beer so instead I won't go and I'll work on a game that probably won't be that good" and then released one of the best games I've ever played. I don't have the words to accurately describe how much of a power move that is

[@matiasfaccini9995]

"i wouldn't spect to much if i we're you" he made the best jrpg in the last ten years, that's some freaking modesty right there XD

[@Konpekikaminari]

Deadpool in defense of most devs, it is usually the publishers that screw things up platinum are a good example, when paired with a good publisher (such as kojima or SE) they make gems, but when paired with people like activision we get shit but I agree, I wish more companies would put focus on story and uniqueness instead of high-prforming mainstream game

[@sirravixfourhorn7681]

The only time I ever bought a game soon after its release with the €60 price tag. That wonderful RPS review sold it for me. My Laptop might not have the specs of a gaming PC so the game often crashed and I had to turn off The FPS limiters to get 16 fps during gameplay then turn it on during cutscenes. Running this game was a struggle and it took me 100+ hours to finish it but my God it was worth every cent and second I spent on it. It blew my mind. The third playthrough in particular was unique and exhilarating, controlling both A2 and 9S on the way to their final confrontation where they have their epic and very memorable showdown was genius. Nier:Automata sets such a high standard for stories in video games that it stands shoulder to shoulder with MGS3, Witcher 3 and Yakuza 0, different though they may be when it comes to genres. Yet in my heart of hearts there is only you in this world; Nier:Automata.

[@noahhkun5097]

Not being toxic but I disliked route C the most weird to see someone loved it, I hated the constant switching and exclusion of 2B , probably mainly because I had kept emils house until route 3 expecting 2B to be in it and then kept it even more bc I expected she’d somehow return, I then forgot about it and finished the game deleting all my data and never got to experience emils house , should never have deleted my data , it’s neat I guess but I didn’t like that option I didn’t really think I’d lose it but trust yoko taro to do some crazy shit like that

You know....everyone is talking about nier 2 but what about Drakengard? Am I the only one who wants a next game? No not another prequel but rather a continuation of what happend in Drakengard 2's B ending.

[@frosty6845]

Drakengard 2 isn't canon

[@jonaszprzybycien6545]

FrostyP How its this not cannon?

[@frosty6845]

+Jonasz Przybycień (MHPL01) Yoko Taro doesn't consider Drakengard 2 canon, therefor it isn't it's that simple

[@TheNoybusiness]

Yes he does. Before Drakengard 3 came out, he said he considered Nier his personal "Drakengard 3". For it to be Drakengard 3, there must be a 2. But it doesn't really matter, since this is a series with multiple alternate timelines. A next Drakengard game can easily follow from one of the first game's endings or Drakengard 3's Branch D, bypassing Drakengard 2 entirely.

[@gomes1258]

on that note, the mech from Nier 2 demo plays very similar to flying Nowe. And after the multiverse stuff from D3, there is no problem with D2 being canon in some forgotten branches.

[@edwardoliveira1748]

why is he wearing that... You know, i actually dont want to know

[@acnologiaxastra9235]

Edward Oliveira the mask is a character from the NieR series called Emil. The reason for him wearing it is because he dislikes pictures of him being taken in which is why he always wears this mask or anything to cover his facial area.

[@edwardoliveira1748]

Talha Sajjad this is actually quite symphatheticXD. Speaking of nier. i still have my PS3 laying around so i can play mgs4 and other great PS3 exclusives. what exactly is the First Nier and is it worth buying if i already have a ps3?

[@acnologiaxastra9235]

Edward Oliveira well the first NieR centers around the story of a father named NieR who is trying to find a cure for the illness called Black Scrawl his daughter yonah is suffering from. NieR is a very touching and truly heartwarming game that centers around themes such as family, friendship and the cruelty of mankind. Since you own a PS3 I'd highly recommend you to play the original NieR. Visually speaking, it is not that impressive but it's the story that makes this game a true masterpiece.

[@edwardoliveira1748]

Talha Sajjad its kinda funny i only hear about the original NieR so shortly before automatas release. i normaly tend to look out for Games with Great story. though... as a game it needs to fulfill the demands that come with being a game. is the gameplay acceptable? also the Guys Name is NieR? with a capital R at the end? lmao wtf?

[@acnologiaxastra9235]

Edward Oliveira the gameplay is quite fun but it certainly has its flaws. There are some aspects gameplay wise which makes the game stand out from the rest but at the same time it lacks things that other games do have. I only heard from the game through a forum about a year ago. Although this game certainly is a masterpiece, it got under the radar due to other "big" game releases from Square Enix such as Final Fantasy XIII. It is quite surprising that they are developing a sequel considering the original one did not sell that well but hey, I'm not complaining :D As far as I remember that is indeed his name...and believe me, when it comes to names there is another character who has to suffer a much worse fate.

[@Unknown-xx7ft]

+Meme Fiction apparently he just wears it because he`s shy and really don`t feel comfortable with people recording and taking pictures of his face so he always wears the mask during interviews and videos and such. now you can see him unmasked by simply typing Yoko Taro unmasked or something along those lines but i warn you it will actually take away the mystery and make him less special trust me i did that mistake lol but yeah don`t reccommend you looking his face up instead just try and keep it a mystery.
