How the fuck do I even play Automata? There are so many fucking particle effects and hitsparks that I can barely see what I'm fighting.

Click your mouse a lot, press Q, then hold down shift.

360 controller for life
>that feel when evade an attack and counter with a heavy up attack with the really big axe
yeah I had this problem too. It gets especially bad when you're fighting other androids, you have 3 black-clad characters with white hair spinning their swords everywhere. Fortunately with healing being so OP you don't need to dodge

360 is objectively inferior to the Xbone and Dualshock 4.
>>376876712
Agreed, i want to know ONE reason to like 360 over X1

Unless you're playing on Hard or above.
I played on Hard until the Adam fight in the ship; fuck that noise. Turned it back to Hard in route B because of powercreep with my chips and Spear of the Usurper+Taunt being laughably broken on 9S, but quickly reverted to Normal when I had to start fighting those corrupted enemies in Route C. God damn do those things suck; having 5 of them on you spamming 2HKOs faster than you can dodge is retarded.

Your mother is objectively inferior to every other woman but it doesn't stop everyone from fucking her
>>376875016
Play The Last of Us instead.
>>376877504
yeah I heard Hard was full of 1HKO bullshit so I didn't even bother. They really fucked up the balance with healing, how can someone playtest the healing in this game and think "This is okay, this is perfectly balanced"?
Hard mode should have just increased damage (but no so much that you get constantly 1 shot), added an animation for using items, and limited the amount of items you can carry to 10 of each

Platinum games in a nutshell.

I didn't really have a problem with that until you play asA2 in the desert against the giant worm thing. It was just a bunch of flashing, undodgeable shit on screen. I ate like 20 recoveries just trying to keep track of that bullshit.
I love the game, though. Most of the time you can tell when to counter by sound alone.

The bumpers on the 360 are better, but the d-pad is terrible. Besides that, you're fine with either.

Every other Platinum action game reads and controls better than this one.
It's the power of Taro's shitty directing that we have a Platinum game as mediocre as this when it comes to action.
Is OP for real. I dont know if he's just joking.
>>376881634
I enjoyed it more than any other Platinum game. At least here there's something more than just non stop retarded action.
>>376875016
Use the booty as an anchor to orient yourself with.
80% of your damage will come from your pod firing bullets constantly, the melee weapons are almost always too risky to use due to no animation-cancelling.
Just hold RB and spam the right trigger, breeze through the whole game this way.

Platinum really does have game feel down to a fucking art. Even with the problems that Nier Tomato's combat has, it still just feels really good to smack around machines.
this is your main antagonist now
