@OozoraSubaru
Oozora Subaru is an MMA and e-sports club manager who debuted as part of Hololive 2nd Generation. Although tomboyish in nature, her feminine side often shows itself during interactions with her friends. She is often teased as a comedian because of how naturally takes the tsukkomi role while interacting with others.

@@Garrox00 Really?! This is the only compilation I've seen with it or rather clips D:

[@NightmareZV]

The game's intense from the very beginning. "Hard" is literally hard lol so I was really frustrated all the first part of the game, that once I beat it, I felt like "Ok, Fffk all this." Once I started 9S side on other time, it was like the game itself told me, "u don goof" and I started to regret whatever I got angry at XD it's a rollercoaster how it suddenly makes you empathize with everything you just went through on the first part. The whole experience is actually beautiful. PS: Subaru's intuition is awesome. I mean, the game does give you the awareness of some things, but Subaru literally deducted 2B's real type form and that there were no humans on the moon like nothing when that actually caught me off guard. Sasuga Shuba-chan.

Hard wasn't that hard However expert is impossible to play, unless you have superhuman reflexes

[@NightmareZV]

@@dafaqu694 On hard you can easily die against chainsaw of the goliath on one hit at the very beginning while on normal I think you can get as much as 3 or 4 hits and still be good to go. There's actually a considerate difference of intensity from just those difficulties. I agree that the game ends up teaching you to always be on guard and careful, but it's still tough if you decide to try your first run on hard without any experience or knowledge about how punishing the game can be if you are overconfident PS: Not to mention that you definitely don't wanna die during the tutorial part

[@dafaqu694]

@@NightmareZV I always play hard, I played this game on hard too, I didn't die on the 1St Goliath battle BUT yeah I only died once, in the first aerial battle, adjusting with control and feelings and everything and then get a W ending Seriously it's not that hard, dying a few times is normal things to do, the only challenge for me playing hard was fighting eve at the end of route A, only that

[@Hyperversum3]

The funniest thing about Automata is how It turns the table, I think that also She picked It up. "I was playing s gentler game". Automata throws a lot of bad shit at the player, makes existential questions about the value and meaning of humanity and yadyayada, but at its core it's still a positive story where people can hope for the best, where Life goes on

So I've watched quite a few playthroughs of Nier and it's always interesting to observe how the streamer reacts. There are people who don't react much, like they're disassociating themselves from the game by treating it as a game. Then you have people like Subaru who have high levels of empathy and they get really immersed and attached to the story. It's always nice to see people in the latter category and I'm glad to see that she was able to enjoy the story the way it was intended to be. In tears and despair.
