western games sucks at action combat system because they want to have most number of normalfags playing ti as possible and everyone here knows it. and don't compare a turn based rpg with a action rpg you fucking moron.
Also the battle system sucks compared to oter japanese action games. platinum is making the combat more and more casual friendly since Metal Gear Rising. Even bayonetta 2 was a huge step down

>>376215127
The game was far from perfect, but if you're gonna make complaints about something you haven't played, at least make the complaints about stuff that's actually true.

It is.

Best music

Best gameplay
Best quests
in 2017.

It's 100% GOTY if you live in Japan and can visit all 5 concerts and read the art books with canon stories about 9s/2b and their creators. They are by far the most developed Taro's characters and the most interesting ones.

If you are a gaijin though, well, get fucked you mongoloid. Taro's games are Japanese-only products that never meant to be played outside of Japan. His books and concerts are never getting the official translations and without extra materials his games are incomplete.

外国の豚 would prefer fatlus entry level glorified VN such as Persona 5 because even normalfags can get into dating simulator with anime girls.

It's not about route C. Read Memory Cage and Memory Thorn.
She fell for him so much that at one point she decided to rather die than to keep killing him.
The only reason she still lives is because 9S understood her situation and asked her to continue killing him so they can be together.
She tries to distance herself from him to make her own work easier but each time it still leaves her broken and the only moments she enjoys in her life is when she's with him.

In concert post-E scene she's so devastated that he's not waking up grief almost kills her.
Japanese weight of the world lyric show that the only thing she wants is to live with him and that's a core of her prayer to the players for forgiveness and salvation.

>waaahhh someone does agree with my opinion
I hated the music in this game. The vocals doesn't at all fit what an overworld music should be (in the background and not distracting). The battle music all sounded like they were rejects from RPGmaker Final Fantasy fangames. The credit song sounds cringe as all hell, like they tried to make a Kingdom Hearts theme song, but gave up halfway and decided to make it into some dumb J-Pop song sung by a reject Western singer.

And using a fake language just makes the song unbearable to listen to. I want to understand what the fuck you're screeching about, overworld music singer lady. At least give some meaning to whatever garbage is coming out of your mouth.

I own HZD, Nier Automata, and BotW. I finished N:A (100%), I'm playing HZD (probably about 40hrs in right now) and I've put about 40 hours into BotW.

It's been about probably two weeks since I last played BotW mainly due to it being so well... forgettable. I'll probably get back around to playing it again once I finish HZD but than again I have Yakuza 0 too which I haven't started..

fuck it sucks having so many choices instead of just having two ports to play.

Absolutely not.
Combat is shallow as fuck for Platinum standards and the game has to carry it for 40 hours.
The overworld has got to be the worst I've ever had the displeasure of experiencing in any video game ever.
Sidequests for the most part were lame.
Character's weren't all that interesting aside from 9S towards the end and A2 because she actually has some personality.

I was kind of let down to be quite honest, the most this game had going for it was "muh feelz" but it didn't even evoke that much emotion in me, those people who call this "emotional rollercaoster" are pretentious shit heads who have no idea what they're talking about or they're the type of people who cry over romcoms.

Embarrassing.

>>376213934
Pretty much, yeah. I haven't played P5 yet but I don't really see how another teenager RPG could dethrone Automata for me.

It's not flawless though, they should have made it harder near the end-game since it's very easy to get overleveled and make the game trivial even on Hard. That's a real shame since the combat and chips you get later would actually provide a decent amount of variety and potential builds/play styles, but everything is so easy by that time that it's simply impossible to try anything more interesting when you murder enemies in 3 hits anyway.

They should also have put a decent effort into the PC version, some of the technical issues are actually inexcusable (can't even set the proper fullscreen resolution), although it's still easily the best version to play thanks to FAR.

A2 has the same mindless revenge mentality as 9S, remember when she killed that baby machine for no reason.

That being said, I'm really digging the spear.

>>376223292
Humans have been extinct all along

2B dies

2B's programmed purpose is to kill 9S

Project Yorha's purpose is to fabricate the fact that humans are extinct so androids will continue fighting in a practically meaningless war because it's their meaning in life and without it they'd have an existential crises and all kill themselves

Yorha bunker is destroyed with everyone in it

2B and 9S are brought back to life in ending e

Jesus. Are there people who just dont play either japanese or western games, just becuz they are this edgy?

I bought this shit on Steam about a month ago. I dabbled in it here and there thinking it was fun but it wasn't until the secrets started being revealed during the 9S playthrough I really got sucked into it.

I ended up playing it hours a day until I finished routes B, C, D, and E. The third act of the game is fucking amazing. I've never seen so much psychological damage thrown at one character so fast. In this video game I went from thinking I could save the world to thinking maybe I can save myself to thinking that death is probably preferable to the suffering of being alive.

It has responsive and addictive combat, the soundtrack is orchestral, catchy, and of extremely high quality, the story is unforgettable. My only gripes with the game are a couple of tediously difficult sections, and that the main characters outfits make it impossible to pitch Nier to any normie. When I get them to actually try the PS4 demo or the first level they always buy it though.

I'm assuming the real fight when humans were alive had a different name.

>>376227187
Then, if the very purpose of the android's existence is protecting humanity, why would the ones that learn about humanity's extinction create a lie and not just kill themselves?

It's a convenience to enable the story, is what it is.

>>376227042

Should've just advertised as 9S's game right from the start. Would've prevented the cancerous waifufags from infecting the fanbase, although that would have hurt sales.

To create for themselves a purpose for existing. So they wouldn't have to commit collective suicide.

Reminder that the epic ruse was fully automated and not even the Commander knew.

>>376227862

They told straight from the beginning that there will be 3 protagonists.
And there was three protagonists.
It was a game about three protagonists, not one, not two, three.

The only people who think otherwise are the people whos attention was grabbed solely by 2B ass, in which case you can only blame yourself for thinking and informing yourself through your dick.

>>376227793
They aren't just mindless robots you know, they're setient AIs, protecting mankind is where they derive their sense of purpose from but it's not like they immediately shut down if there's no humans left. It's like how humans would react if it was somehow proven that God doesn't exist.

Not every android would think to commit suicide if they don't have a reason to fight anymore. They tried to bring humans back but then the aliens came and took over Earth. Gotta take it back so the new humans can return, so lie to the android forces and give them a reason to kill all machines.

>>376227910
>>androids try to clone humans back

never happened

>>376227793
They are not in the game, so your question can't be answered, maybe their models or personalities let them to somehow deal with that fact but some of them killed themselves so the ones left decided to create that lie.

>>376227924
You are missing the point. If the androids would commit suicide without a purpose, then the androids that learn that they have no purpose because humanity is extinct should have killed themselves.

Them being capable of making the choice to create their own purpose clashes against the claim that Project Yorha is needed for androids not to kill themselves.

It's a self-defeating plot device.

This game does neat things with storytelling and sudden changes in gameplay and the soundtrack is fantastic, everything else about it is unremarkable.

>>376228861

>>376228472

They did nothing like that, they simply sent the remaining data of the project to the moon server, that means very little, theres no genome or anything to clone from, humanity is dead and the last bits of data about them are sent there.
The nature and failure of project Gestalt ensured that humanity is actually, totally dead, because all actual usable DNA information was contained in the Gestalts, who are dead.

No. I don't think so. It was...okay.

The love story was lame. I cared more about Yorha and the machines as faction entities than I did about any particular individuals. The main characters just aren't interesting on their own. A2 was getting interesting, but her play time was short. In the end, 2B failed to be a compelling waifu, and 9S becoming a screaming idiot over her death wasn't interesting.

I liked the side quest stories, but the gameplay wasn't that good. The themes and philosophies were entry level attempts at artistically weaving them into the game. I appreciate the effort, since most games don't bother, but it was still rather shallow. The main villains sucked. What can I say? It just wasn't that great overall.

The music was good, but that alone is never enough to carry games.

Debatable, and certainly not all of them, DevPop most definitely were programmed to love the other one. The DevPop in Nier Automata were also just following their programming.

With that said just like Replicants could turn sentient, so could androids obviously, but Beepy did come and force sentience upon them, which is where the problem of Automata originates from, or where the feelings of Yorha androids originate from (through the machines used to make them)

>>376232730
It probably doesn't matter for androids who only need water to survive.
If anything, they are the ones who will be able to make the thing habitable again.

Thought it was interesting how machine eyes were colored like traffic lights. Green was friendly, yellow was indifferent, and red was hostile. Kind of like green was "go, approach freely", yellow was "approach cautiously", and red was "stop, do not approach"

>>376231621
That's about the same size as the ass I posted.

>>376231842
OK, like the one I posted? Do you have a gif or webm?

>>376213934
I wouldn't say the best GOTY ever, but I do think the game is good enough. That's all that matters.

>>376232982

At no point was our discussion about size though.
Size doesn't determine a good ass.

>>376232973
>9S hacks into a chunk of machine network by the end of A and makes all machines under his control flash green
That was beautiful.

I think discussion for this game has run its course for the moment on /v/. Its like the first day of the jap streams all over again with people shitposting.

OK, so if it's not size, that leaves shape.

See how the "drooping" is entirely affected by the way she stands?

>>376233204

Its done so for weeks now, its now just shitposting and some clueless anons thinking it is not.

>>376233283

Sure, its still not a better ass, even if its a good one.

It's a better ass because it jiggles. Female butts jiggle. 2B's ass looks stiff in comparison.

>>376233681

Only a flabby un-fit ass would ever jiggla that much, and god it looks bad in that shot, its a man ass if I ever saw one.

DOOD 2B'S BUTT LOL

>>376233991

Don't need to be so butthurt anon.

worst meme on /v/ at the moment

>>376233363
I have been following this video game ass discussion, and I think it has led me to a finer appreciation of video game asses.

So thank you both for that. Another constructive /v/ thread.

>>376234065
Well, you called it flabby because it jiggled a bit.

>>376234181

That jiggled a LOT and not even really a physically correct way. Again, technology matters to butt-simulation. That ass looks like a flabby man ass in that gif, and I can say that because it pretty much looks like mine.

The reason you think it looks like a man butt is because of her narrow hips, right? They look narrow because of her chaps which make her butt look smaller than it really is.

Also, that's not a lot of jiggle. Her ass jiggles differently depending on what move she does.

>>376234582

I'm not sure whats the point of this anon, you are clearly obsessed with this ass so I would never expect you to accept that 2B's looks better.

>>376234675

Fuck off. Its just another slightly above average game made by Platinum. Pretty sure it would be just as overseen as Nier 1 was if it werent for all that waifu faggotry.

>>376213934
>dust has settled
It was literally released today...

>>376232336
You can still say apples taste better than oranges.

>>376234582
It shouldn't jiggle at all when she wiggles her hips like this. Yet I can clearly see the fat jiggle.

Bullshit. I also want to fuck 9S.

>>376213934
No. It's just a cheap fapbait with cookie cutter floaty Platinum combat. Sasuga Taro.

2B was a mistake

A couple days worth of fap material anyone over 21 would get tired of is not worth the absolutely cancerous people she brought to the fanbase.

Still a chick, just with a dick.

no thanks, even Taro himself doesn't think his games are masterpiece, also the game has already been forgotten

>>376235809
Do a DNA test on her and results will be female.

They're not even in the same ballpark

>isn't my character so sad even though it's only revealed at the end of the game, and the game doesn't actually showcase my purpose

>>376236030
I think people are stupid for missing the point. 2B's design is meant to be sexy and draw you in, and then as you learn more about her you should feel bad because of what a shitty existence she has.

Emphasis on should because this thread is full of retard shitposters and perva who jack it to everything.

>>376236272
*gets better
The game is good from the start.

>>376213934
It's a tossup between Zelda and Prey for me so far

>>376236348
There were small bits about what was going on with 2B here and there, but they should have done a better job or thrown a few more in the main story missions.

>>376236260
You wouldn't jerk her off while fucking her from behind?

>>376213934
Nioh and Nier Automata are still my favorite games this year so i guess so

>>376235779
He actually reads 2B as an open book and understands that she's a huge softie inside, according to the novels.
>9S laid down 2B on her back, and forcibly hacked into her despite her still shaking head.
He's going to fucking ravage her after ending E and she's going to enjoy every second of it.

>>376236348

You are trying to hard to make that point, Kainé is a swearing cunt for most of her game and her personality is so one-track that Taro keeps reusing it, with zero and now A2.

Just appreciate the whole story for what they are, instead of this waifufag shittery. They both served their roles fine, Kainé just gets more exposition and a way better voice actor.
