Best of NieR Automata [Route A]

[@MisterMusashi]

*NieR Automata:* "That's my secret, Cap. I'm _always_ playing one of the best songs in the game."

[@borderlandmanjack9108]

So much of this game is S-tier from the music to the gameplay to just the story

[@syndicaterx]

Route A aka the ‘ full game’ for Matt

[@novikovPrinciple]

2B: I'm good. 9S: Oh. This dialogue hurts so much more after you discover 2E.

[@luisalamo-rivera5787]

Novikov_Principle I’m getting a lot of that having just gone through this game. One oomph after another

[@k.-flynn]

They both remember tho, he just doesn't know how it ends.

[@Sanodi21]

I know the LP was over a year ago, but it feels pretty good hearing Woolie and Liam together again

[@dogsoldier123]

They're still friends right? Woolie is cool with everyone.

[@TheNocturnal1]

Mr Saturday yea, he's the glue that's kept them together.

Moose worth 15k Woolie: I REJECT MY HUMANITY

[@4Wilko]

See that moose? You get a jetpack if you kill it.

[@Radoh1017]

There's nothing more Woolie than being the only person that I know who not only doesn't hate Jean-Paul but actively likes him.

[@ThatOneGuy0006]

I mean, look at him go with his little hat!

[@MidgarMerc]

This should just be an hour of Liam saying "This is the best song in the game" followed by him talking over it. Alternatively Liam saying a sidequest doesn't matter despite it having important story content

[@kohalurker]

Please stop

[@MidgarMerc]

@@kohalurker THIS. CANNOT. CONTINUE.

[@zo0bit]

He can stop when Liam's memory is better than that of a goldfish.

[@lifeiscrap103]

Or having arguably the best weapon in the game as a reward for it. Like Heritage of the Past and it's reward; Spear of the Usurper.

[@IronicHavoc]

I don't think you can blame him for talking over it. Pretty much everyone does that. Plus I think Woolie can still hear it during recording and viewers really shouldn't expect an Lp to be the best way to hear the soundtrack.

[@speedy2davey]

Woolie says weird sh*t sometimes during dramatic moments I've noticed.

[@silverleon777]

Missed chance at the end for "2[B] Continued"

[@timesstopdinosaur]

Is really the best song in the game

[@BallinBubblegum]

Time's Stop Dinosaur and he’s always right

[@VinceMouse]

I really love how Woolie missed the label on the hair dye bottle at first.

[@marialuke2116]

16:29 Oh no, Liam brought it back. EDIT: great, now I want a KH x Iron Giant x Nier: Automata. Just for the drama of Hogarth and the Iron Giant trying to say the Giant isn't a gun to 2B and 9S who don't believe them, with Sora and co trying to defend the Iron Giant. (and maybe Hogarth gets a stab which makes the androids freak out because _that's a human._ )

[@ThatOneGuy0006]

Hogarth would say the same thing he said in the movie and Sora would just be there in the background saying redundant things like "yeah" and " that's right".

[@4Wilko]

Oh sweet. I actually just resumed binging through my 30 part NieR Automata backlog this week so this came at a perfect time.

[@MrQuinnhalo]

I was hoping a compilation vid would come out, thank you Woolie and Solidus113!

[@lifeiscrap103]

God damn it. Vague Hope (Both Spring Rain and Cold Rain) is always the song that gets the one tear from me. Every. Single. Time.

[@TheEvilwisdom]

I always remember the moment it plays at the end of route D... Oof, it got me good.

“This is one of the best tracks in the game.”

[@MegaRazor619]

Thank you. I couldn't watch the entirety of your lp since it was so huge

[@KinduVborrd]

The best part for me was watching Liam and Woolie have fun together.

[@eseph_agen]

I absolutely love how so much of the world is kept as close to neutral colors as possible, because then when theres a blood splatter kill scene it completely disrupts the current color scheme and leaves a huge impression

[@XC11301991]

This hurts and that opener song choice

[@jscandyhell6846]

I like the roller coaster segment. It's one of the best tracks in the game.

[@parker469a]

ty i needed this best of

[@Vinlander95]

Didn't they not finish the most important side quest/boss fight with a certain round boi? That was such an important moment in the game I wanted them to play.

[@kemonoautumnfall6331]

This is the BEST of, so I assume they didnt put it in this one.

[@Vinlander95]

@@KGhaleon I know.cbut I don't recall seeing them ever attempt it during the full playthrough. Shame, as I would've liked to have seen his reaction.

[@DivineEnjoys]

Watching this after finishing Route A myself. I now realize how much i actually missed. Fuck!

[@theNickRYG]

I used to go to bed listening to "Fortress of Lies" myself

[@biogamer1728]

after MULTIPLE playthroughs of this game and watching this compilation multiple times I am just now noticing the ikaruga ship 2B gets into turns white so it has the ikaruga black and white style

[@spartandumpster1158]

Partially off topic, but anyone else find it weird when demos aren't just the beginning of the full game, but usually an early level/area from the full game, but then they don't remove all the tutorial stuff from that demo area? Like learning to attack and everything in the beginning of the game, then once you reach the Demo part they tell you how to attack and all that stuff you already learned again, like "you really couldn't just remove that trigger and text box or whatever from the release version?" It's one of those small things where you're like "that's so small who really cares?" but also "why not take a minute to remove that small thing though?"

[@EternlDepression]

I'm feeling so nostalgic rite now.

[@unboundking9742]

The Best of Woolie Vs Overly Slappable Asses? Count me in.

[@SteelBallRun1890]

The world has become a lot less fun as of late, but it's always nice to remember better times.

[@Densoro]

Hey, hope you’re hanging in there. It’s been nuts, but there’s still room for new good times.

[@Caidezes]

The most frustrating LP returns as a feature film! Now with uninterrupted annoyances and content skipping. (Still gonna watch it though.)

But will Woolie fight the Super Boss?

[@ExemplarKyle]

This game has been sitting in my Steam library for the better part of a year now. I started playing it and absolutely loved it, but it's the only game on my entire Steam library that makes my laptop run HOT. Like, scary hot. Hot enough that I don't feel comfortable continuing it. -I blame 2Booty.- Granted, this is an ASUS laptop from back in 2015, but still. One day, I'll upgrade and enjoy this game the way it deserves, but not anytime soon. X_X

[@grantowens7537]

Ah, the game of BEST THINGS

[@spartandumpster1158]

I hate stories with some kind of creature or being that "has no emotions" except when they do but no one in the story will acknowledge that they do. I'm mostly pointing my finger at the Nobodies in Kingdom Hearts, I sort of dropped out of the series and the fandom a while ago, but as far as I know no one says "okay, guess we were wrong, Nobodies can have emotions to the point where they're indistinguishable from people". The same can go with androids where it's like "the ones that have emotions don't actually have emotions, their programming just went haywire", it's fine coming from a character (preferably a villain) whose entire thing is that they'll fight tooth and nail to the very end that they have no emotions. I can understand that part of the purpose is to keep you wondering, or make you decide for yourself whether androids or other types of artificial humans have emotions (specifically ones that aren't supposed to) and should basically be considered human, but at the same time it is a work of fiction. Androids are a realistic thing on the horizon, and if/when they become a common thing, they'll most likely lack everything that makes us question their humanity in fiction, which will affect how we view stories that do and leave it to speculation, because the ones we have don't and it might even be stupid to believe they could be considered human, so by not trying to solidify or confirm "in this story, androids have the capacity to feel human emotions" we'll more often than not leave the story thinking "nah, that's dumb, androids don't have emotions, they're machines."

[@CriticalCipher]

Super long ago but curious if you have seen an entire playthrough of the game aswell as an anyalisis cause the androids clearly have emotions and they are designed to have them, the machines aswell, it's revieled so near the end of route C and E
