If any other game had a shitty PC port with the devs/publishers saying nothing for months they'd get fucking thrown through the wringer and back. But because this mediocre trite is perceived as a masterpiece on par with great film/lit then it's ok.

The only other games I see getting their issues handwaved is trash made by Bethesda.
>>
Game is Japanese and has Big Fat White Asses so of course the faggot side of /v/ loves it
>>
>>389845923

I'm still mad. I pre-ordered and ended up refunding because of the issues and Sqaure still hasn't said shit. I'm still waiting to give them my money but it seems like they've abandoned the game wholly.

FFXV isn't getting my money until I get solid confirmation that the port is good.
>>
>>389845923

Dark Souls

Nier is fixed with driver updates and the FAR mod

Forget it
It's Japanese devs. They NEVER fix their games
>>
>>389846026
You know there's a fan made fix that was released day 1 that gets rid of all the problems, right?
>>
you're free to pirate it and download the community patch that fixes everything
they shouldnt get money for 0 support on the game
the game is still good
>>
>>389846095
And most issues were fixed 1 month after release. Or at least I was able to play it mid-high 60fps with an i5 and gtx 960
>>
>>389845923
Or you could play it on PS4 like it was intended.
>>
>>389846079
>Nier is fixed with driver updates
Don't really fix shit, several AMD cards still get white screen even with latest patch
>FAR mod
that's a third party fix and not really a great one either

I absolutely love Nier but the fact that the game still doesn't support 1080p+ in fullscreen is bullshit
>>
>>389845923

The issue is that all you retards are bitching at Western Squeenix, and the people that actually ported the game are in Japan and don't speak english.

>>389846123
Far only fixes port issues, doesn't fix crashes. AMD and Nvidia have released driver fixes. Hell, AMD's fix actually fixed a crash i've had in Steam Big Picture mode.

>>389845923
>oh no my shitty pc can't run a new game
it isn't a shitty port, the game run like shit even on ps4 and ps4 pro, having a decent pc is objectively the best way to play this game (which is a good one), so stop crying for shitty port if you're a poorfag

there are also enough fan fixes around to let you play it on less then minimal required specs
>>
>>389846123
doesn't solve shit
the fan patch doesn't even add proper fullscreen support, you're still rendering the game at a lower resolution the difference is FAR is using quality upscallers so you don't notice
>>
>>389846241

FAR is honestly pretty great in how much shit it fixes.

>still white screen
did you do full clean driver removal with DWS? I'm on an RX480.

I do remember my gtx 760 having similar problems in other games.

>>389846184
>Game is good

I don't get what people see in it at all. The gameplay is the most stilted and bland thing I've seen from the genre. Why the fuck does the story even have 'routes' when it's all linear and each event precedes after or alongside one another? Route B should've been integrated with A and the game should've swapped you off between 2B and 9S. People scream about how this is a story that can only be told in a video game when the only part of it that couldn't work in other mediums is the Smash Bros end credits shit in Ending E.

wtF, who thinks that? Nier: Automata was one of the greatest disappointments of the year. It's the only game that was so shit that I dropped it, and I usually love JRPGs. What a lousy game.

It gets a "pass" because anyone with a brain who can into computers can fix all the issues in under 3 minutes. Which is what most people did and didn't cry about it.

idk what your issue is but the white screen issue was fixed by AMD in a driver update

Then sorry man I don't know what to tell you, I had crashes on the driver I was running when the game came out. I downgraded to the october one before Relive was out, beat the game on it, and have replayed a bit of the game on the latest driver after the update came out. I'm on windows 10 if that means anything.

I do remember getting one crash on the latest driver, but I think that was before I restarted after a driver update.
>>389846649

we have had thread after thread of people explaining why they like the game, in detail, for months now

you have likely shitposted in those threads till your fingers were blue because you can't handle somebody liking something


>>389846719
When the status quo of Japanese publishers is KNOWN to be shit. When Squeenix is KNOWN to have issues understanding the western market. Its people's fault for not going to /jp/ or /a/ and finding anons who know Japanese and getting them to help pelt SQueenix **JAPAN** with constructive bitching.

Otherwise it all falls on deaf ears.

When Yoko Taro has been saying on twitter "talk to squeenix" he's talking about **his** domestic squeenix.

The part about Nier 1 doing everything better isn't right but Automata being recognised for things the first game did back in 2010 is
>>
>>389847984
So you can't explain why this game is so great. And by redirecting me to sift through past threads indicating that your views on the game are from other people. Rather than your own critical judgement. Wonderful.
>>
>>389848014
Except Nier and Automata have considerable differences in themes they touch as well as tone, narrative structure and especially how they handle their own true endings.
They are both great games but trying to compare them is a pure autism, they are too different.
>>
trite is an adjective you fucking idiot

consensus or agreement != parotting

I've written up paragraphs and paragraphs of why I liked the game. 3-4 months ago. Go find them and others like it if you actually care this much about what I and other think.

>World design is identical with a central area that has linear paths that lead to new areas
>Chips are just Words from the first game renamed

From a game design standpoint the games are practically identical
>>
>>389848461
>So are you going to explain what makes this game great
Nah
>>
>>389848479
it's good that game design is not the thing Automata receives most of its praise, and even then tightened combat and new mechanics like hijacking or shmup combat still makes a huge difference compared to the first Nier
>>
What are you talking about? Everyone knows 'mostly positive' means it's trash.
>>
>>389845923
Trite is an adjective not a noun. The more you know.
>>
>>389848469
Yet you couldn't even copy and paste one of those so called posts you made? The more and more you reply without being able to back up the claim that this game has unique qualities, the more you look like a blindly praising moron. I've even outlined some of my issues with the game and you didn't even bother to counter them.
>>
>>389848479
>From a game design standpoint the games are practically identical
auto adds stuff like slowmo on dodge, a perpetul laser stream, and using two different weapon types at once, as well as taking contrl of enemies, and a new weapon type not present in N1. mechanically it has enough new features to stand proud as a sequeal and not just a 1.5
>>
>>389848669
What a shame then. Thanks for proving my point and OPs that this game's praise is mindless.
>>
>>389847717

welcome to the new fanbase
TES, souls, it happens all the time
>>
>>389848920
I'm not calling it a 1.5 my point is that the first game was shunned and Automata is acclaimed, but they share the same formula. It's stupid that one has been forgotten and the other is worshipped
>>
>>389847197
>>389846123

Yes, I'm aware of FAR but it shouldn't be necessary. If I have to use a fan fix for basic functionality, I'm waiting until the game is in the $15 range to pick it up.
>>
>>389849269
One was shown at E3 and was hyped by people claiming Drakengard and the first Nier were masterpieces.
>>
>>389849393
Be real here, the new fanbase didn't buy it because of a cult niche that liked the past games. They bought it because of Platinum games or 2B's ass
>>
>>389849552
True, Platinum's name played a big part as well. Just don't count out the sea of "Drakengard/Nier summary/recap/analyses" that cropped up.

>>389849552
And because the first Nier came out and the only people who gave a shit about it were the three fans of Drakengard.

Meanwhile Nier Automata came out on multiple systems, including steam, had a spot at e3 and had a good deal of marketing both professional and youtube playthroughs. It also had a demo.

You can't compare the two sales wise, automata simply had much more hype and awareness around it.
>>
>>389846123
That only makes things worse, at least on my machine (not that I had a lot of issues, game ran at 60fps with drops to about 50, which is fine)

>>389852878
That’s beside the point
They must have had their reasons
>>
>>389852743
they didn't say a word behind the reasoning, when everyone was buying it on the actual release date for Steam our region didn't even make the cut, it was until literally the last day of April did we get to buy it. but wait, here's the kicker: the initial price was the equivalent of $60 in our currency, which is totally fine, we don't care, we just want to play the game. But then the next day they actually raised it into the equivalent of EIGHTY DOLLARS. I mean, come the fuck on here. We had to wait for a month and we also had to pay more? what the fuck kind of service is that?
