Devola - "Did we manage to help?" A2 - "You did" RIP Devola and Popola, you two did your best.

[@_Umbrael_]

Yep, they helped get 9S into the tower and by consequence helping end the world! :D I don't mean this in a mean way, just stating what they did, love you Devola and Popola!

[@_Umbrael_]

Actually did that end the world or did it just end... well, them. WAAAHH.. T_T 2B... I miss you.

@Gyro expect them in the comments section of a song cover for a game you have yet to complete lol

"They were designed to feel a persistant sense of guilt" *sound of heart breaking*

[@fakerweldi7879]

*NieR: Automata - Devola and Popola’s Story Explained* Just like Emil, Devola and Popola are returning characters from NieR who play a part in the events of NieR: Automata. While they’re different models from the Devola and Popola we knew from the first game, the connections between the two pairs are quite explicit, and they play a huge part in the sequel too. First, some backstory: the Devola and Popola models from the original NieR were responsible for protecting the Shadowlord and making sure that he could continue to help stabilize the Gestalts. However, the Shadowlord’s Replicant killed him at the end of the game, effectively dooming humanity. This marked the end and failure of Project Gestalt, and all of the Devola and Popola models gathered the Replicant data and sent them to the moon. All the androids started resenting Devola and Popola for destroying humanity, and they became outcasts. As punishment, the Devola and Popola line of twin androids were discontinued and gotten rid of, except for one pair - the pair that we meet in NieR: Automata. For this pair, their memories of Project Gestalt were wiped, and they were allowed to go free. It’s not entirely clear why these two androids were allowed to live, but perhaps they were meant to serve as a reminder to the rest of the androids why Project Gestalt failed in the first place. When we meet Devola and Popola at the Resistance Camp, we find out that the rest of the Resistance androids are pretty cold to them. They’re also forced to perform dangerous tasks for the camp, despite the fact that they’re not combat models. This is the Resistance’s way of punishing them. When 9S asks them why they’re assigned these tasks, they simply say that it’s their way of atoning for past sins. Later on in the game, when 9S finally gains access to the white tower, he has trouble hacking into it as enemies start coming after him non-stop. At this point, Devola and Popola show up, and they fight off the machines while 9S continues hacking. The hacking process goes smoothly until he encounters an unbreakable barrier. Here, Popola grabs the barrier and she ends up short-circuiting herself to bypass the barrier and let 9S in. Devola throws 9S into the tower, and when he tries to protest against leaving them outside with the machines, she tells him that this is their atonement. Inside the tower, Pod 153 provides 9S with the memory records of Devola and Popola. It’s here that we find out about the failure of Project Gestalt and how Devola and Popola from the original NieR had brought about its end. We also learn about how the last remaining Devola and Popola models were subject to verbal and even physical abuse from other androids. At the end of it all, Pod 153 reveals that their memories were wiped, and that Devola and Popola’s systems were programmed to generate constant feelings of guilt and remorse. This is why they accepted all the abuse and felt the need to atone, despite not being the actual Devola and Popola models who failed to protect the Shadowlord. Later on, A2 arrives at the tower and sees that all the machines have been defeated. She also sees Popola lying dead in Devola’s arms. Devola herself is close to death as well. As A2 moves to enter the tower, Devola asks if she and her sister managed to help. A2 says that they did, and Devola responds by saying that she’s glad.

faker weldi God damn I didn’t need a feels trip again for these two why did I read this

[@azurlune1877]

faker weldi I really hope popala didn't die that actually made me cry a bit

[@roadzal7361]

😢

[@yaboirhombus1693]

There's also that important bit about the role reversal from the original deaths of the twins, where it was Devola who died in Popola's arms.

[@comandercarnis]

Fun little fact, they aren't the only models left out there.

[@blacknemesy]

The voice is very appropriate with varying degrees of intensity and emotion to match the tone. Massively underrated cover. Instrumentals are 10/10 as always.

Crazy idea, have Waffuru and Rena do a duet with this.

[@765craven4]

Haven't played Automata and this legit gives me fucking goosebumps. This is better than music has any right to be.

NEVER!!!!!!

[@vengeanceweapon]

Salute!

[@nathanrichards615]

Nice dude. I absolutely love the Nier Automata OST with a passion. Hopefully we can all see a full cover OST soon, yeah?

[@thelastgiant5576]

Nathan Richards with how it's going, I wouldn't be surprised. He's covered some of the major tracks, and some of the minor tracks.

[@nathanrichards615]

The Last giant Hopefully. There's like, what, 10 songs already? And if that's the case when everything's said and done, it could be (an Nier Automata album itself) just as big as the past two MH albums. It would be nice, but I guess that we all would just need to give the thought itself and Falk some time.

[@FalKKonE]

Well, I'm not so sure about covering the whole OST (even though they are all great tunes), but there's still at least a few more I just can't help but want to arrange lol

[@nathanrichards615]

FalKKonE Sounds good enough to me. Will you be doing more soulsborne sometime in the future?

[@jmanlogh9696]

FalKKonE you ever gonna cover any from the first game like shadowlord I'd love to hear that

[@RDMS360]

i clicked to listen the cover... I ended up crying... this image just broke me...

[@alfathir3882]

same here

[@DWFTW]

This is one of those songs I'd be most worried about being covered wrong, but I had a feeling seeing who it was featuring it had no way it would be. She got the Desert theme down, and she most definitely got Song of the Ancients down too. Easily my favourite between the games, though I do prefer the ones from the original to this. I'd comment on the instrumentals, but I don't think there's a single upload from FalK I have issue with those in. Always great.

[@FalKKonE]

Thank you ^^

[@Chizuru94]

She? If FalKKonE is a girl, then what a surprise :D I wouldn't mind, though. I'm a girl myself and it doesn't make any difference other than me being happy about other girls doing stuff like this ;)

[@xae8324]

@@Chizuru94 I think the "she" is in reference to Waffuru. Regardless, this cover is nothing short of amazing.

Nier Automata the game that got dark as hell if you played all the ending, but had the best music in a game in a long ass time

[@jesseramos1951]

you need to play first NieR, its more rough and dark than Automata

[@traviscorriea2487]

Jesse Ramos Not that surprised as from what I know it’s in the middle of humanity dying from the Drakengard ending if I’m correct

[@janedoe4929]

#NotallPopolasandDevolas

[@rizzierizriz]

Ah... but they kind of did (it was actually because they did nothing that all this happened)... but they didn't deserve what happened to them

[@janedoe4929]

🍒riz🍒 The ones that screwed up are long dead as they both died in Neir, all the other Devola and Popola models were then punished in their place, even though they were as horrified by their conterparts colossal fuck up as the rest of the androids. They were reprogramed to feel the guilt of their counterparts's mistakes just because they look the same.

[@rizzierizriz]

Jane Doe In that part you are right, but if I remember correctly all Popola and Devola models were overseers of the Gestalt project, so the responsability falls unfairly on all of them, since they had a big part in the whole scheme, but still couldn't bring the project to the end. But in the end they are all victims too, the real cause was the defeat of the dragoon lol and also both Niers and their will to save Yonah. Dammit Nier why cant you wait and listen to other people >:T

[@Kurayami_13]

real cause was dragons being inferior to heat seeking missiles. After being teleported in Nier world dragoon almost won but then JSDF used interceptors. apparently they were VERY effective.
