/v/ knows about pic related because they wanted to know the reason waifu was in vidya. This fact is nowhere near as prominent to players of the game as /v/ makes it out to be, with practically only really one line mentioning it.
Whacky Moon Man isn't so much a genius as much as he is just more competent than other paid 'professionals'.
It'd be nice if /v/ never knew what this thread was about, or at the very least, never became part of the collective knowledge. It still makes me sad to this day that Nier is such an unplayable game, but that too is a testament to the strength of Whacky Moon Man's vision
>>377396735
I wish, SE is still retarded, Automata became as good as it is because they didn't give a shit about it until the last 3 months.

Automata's writing is pretty bad compared to Planescape's to be quite honest, kind of embarrassing.
>>377396950
>game's writing is inferior to the best written game of all time
>how embarrassing!
>>377396872
But SE was retarded because they thought it wouldn't have been profittable enough and a waste of resource and time, so Dragon Quest director had to step in to save Taro. Now that the game is selling and they found a new source of decent incoming everything should go smoother. His next game really needs to be more polished, and to do that the man needs some decent budget.
>>377396950
Completely different genre and type of story and writting. The kind of story Automata has is very well made, and its stronger point is the direction and the visual storytelling in any case.
>>377397608
Not him but we should always be worried that Square-Enix will swoop in and ruin everything with their greedy bullshit. They did it to Hitman and Deus Ex.
>>377397608
No, SE is retarded because its SE.
They just wanted a cheap Platinum game so they let him get away with his things this time due to it being a small budget game and Saito's influence (which btw always was on Taro's side, and yet Drakengard 3 still came out like it did)
Now that he has garnered mainstream attention they'll want t make actual money using him, and when they want to make money they as
>>377397671
says, swoop in with their greedy bullshit and ruin everything.
The bigger the budget they give him the less free hand he gets with it.
>>377397608
Hopefully they can keep Platinum on board and make the next game challenging without a bullshit one shot kill mode.

I like to think that Drakengard 3 taught them a valuable lesson. That lesson being that if they try and force their ideas on Taro he's going to give them shit in return.
>>377398090
>Taro wears an Emil mask everywhere he goes
What did he mean by this?
>>377395502
you think Emil is a self insert for Taro?
lol
>>377398268
More like the lesson of "We can't trust this guy".
Publishers are only looking for safe bets.
>>377398308
That he doesn't like to show his face.
Taro is happily married unlike you faggots.
>>377394806
Because it comes from a place of innocent purity as opposed to a calculated plot to subvert society or shoehorn muh diversity

this post reeks of not knowing what you're talking about
>>377398352
>popola and devola are dying
>EVERY DAY'S A SALE
>>377398352
Actually Taro admittedly did it because he wanted to reflect the diversity in the real world.
He just did it well, and didn't make the character for the sole reason of doing this.
>>377394806
Oh it's about him getting feelings towards Nier?
That happens because he fuses with this sister though
>>377398417

>>377394806
Because when the majority of entertainment you consume is anime and JRPGs, your standard of quality becomes much lower as a result. See: people who think Nier's writing is some deep intricate shit
>>377398475
No, he always wanted to fuck Nier.
>>377398546
even old man nier?
>>377398475
Taro literally rejected that idea when interviewed and asked about Emil's sexuality.
>>377398581
Maybe? Taro was probably only talking about bro Nier. You'd have to ask him.He'd probably say yes.

I'll be glad when this fucking meme dies.
>>377394806
Because 2B is the best female vidya character to date, who cares if alttab changes the game from fullscreen to windowed and if has 30fps cinematics. I still can have a rock solid 1440p@60fps experience.
Pretty much same thing goes for raise of the tomb raider, optimized like shit, character makes you just forget about it. Its not because is japanese.
Tl;dr buy a better computer.
>>377398581

>>377398709
Well apparently someone did because he has a daughter. Kaine wanted to fuck him too.
>>377394806
He's still a likable character regardless.
>>377396735
If they want to show us they started giving a shit they should Taro give some Budget to make a Witcher tier expansion pack based on one of the events of the new Nier:Automata Timeline
>>377398709

Would you accept being turned gay if it meant you turned into an immortal skeleton wizard?

You don't understand the hierarchy here do you?
>>377398818
I'm already a gay skeleton, but being an immortal wizard might be nice.
Can Emil still feel lust when he's just a skeleton head?Do you think he was attracted to 9S?
>>377398870
This.
>>377398869
What are you trying to say here
>>377398910
I'm sure he was busy snapping from finally remembering his past again after nearly 7k years
>>377398916
Taro doesn't have a budget to give, he is employed by SE to direct the game and nothing more, SE gave the money for the game, SE got the income from the game, SE is the only one who can "give a budget" here. Its not his decision at all.
>>377398756

As a person who has extensive experience in trying not to think about things you can't have, if I try to extrapolate that to 11000 years of doing it, I'd say he probably gotten good at it and does not think about it.

You now slowly begin to realize that it was 9S fucking up Bunker and almost destroying Androidkind via Atlantis that the entire Bunker became gay and most male YoRHa got shafted.

>>377396735
Taro is going into his NEET mode bro
He has stated he is done with games
>>377399254
He says stupid shit all the time, its probably stupid to take it seriously. Plus he is already working on sinofalice
>>377399241
A2 is the prodigy, shes the only one who can STOP the 9 models appocolapse
SHE'S THE CHOSEN ANDROBOT
>>377394806
Because almost no one notice it, because ordinary people don’t really care about it, because Developers didn’t aggressively promote it like some sort of SJW propaganda in order to show how "progressive" they are, because it’s just fucking tiny-winy background which really affects NOTHING, because Emil is not even human or replicant and he‘s not even real Emil in Automata. No one really give a shit about this unlike you queers. I've played both Nier and Automata since the they first released, and I NEVER notice this shit until some fags came out to promote it like always.
I know what you’re trying to imply, and you probably a real fag, because only lgbt degenerates are obsessed with this shit so much. Go kill yourself.
>We will never get a Taro directed FF game
Not that SE would ever let him touch the 2 or 3 IPs they actually care about but one can dream.

yeah what the fuck happened to these threads? Where are 2butt posters? why only landshits are here?
>>377399910
Because people actually went through the game and can't fap to 2B anymore.
I can relate to Japan's wacky, zany, eccentric, misunderstood outlook on everything, much like myself
>>377399802
>He'd just have to wait for the non-Yorha shota models to be released.
The are worth dying for though

>>377399898
>>377399894
actually 9s was ok as a character but he definitely brought the appocolapse, I have no problems with him honestly
I hope A2 will put him out of his misery, poor thing
>>377400117
Anyone trying to harm 9S will have to come through serious 2B and when she's motivated enough she can actually gut things well enough.
Reverse situation is the same, too.
>>377399112
Why did A2 seem so tacked on?
>>377400273
She's like a protagonist of another game who appeared in a sequel, except there was no other game.
>>377399582
YoRHa was probably a lot less gayer when they had male YoRHa units around.
>tfw Nier Automata 2 features a cast of little scanners in short shorts

A2 is the only logical girl
>>377400323
>implying the male models didn't fuck off to make their gayboy utopia in atlantis
They even fugged with the machines.
>>377400207
A2 can and has killed both of them.

You might be being ironic, but you're right, regardless.
Ever see a thread talking about the GAMEPLAY of Hunniepop, 100% Orange Juice, or Automata?

>>377400331
>9S
>Antagonist
The only times he turned into an Antagonist was before Nier:Automata happened. Just because 9S was rage fueled and wanted annihilate the Machine Network doesn't make him an antagonist.
>>377400398
I've seen dozens and participated in a lot of Automata discussion.
You just see what you want to see, which is asses and shitposting.

yes they did give a damn about A2, also 9s is special because for the plot, as A2 and 2B
Everyone is equal but A2 deserves a DLC at least, I barely witnessed some of her greatness

And neither will A2. She only exist to give 9S something to scream at and now that that's done with what purpose does she have? None.

Theres a very important difference between diversity, and forced diversity though.
>>377402402
Let me guess, if it doesn't appeal to you it's "forced" diversity.
>>377402253
I laughed though
>>377402471

Like the difference between your response, and a contrary response - yours is forced.

But be ready, technically its also the worst, terribly so.

Which game would you recommend playing first soundtrack wise(nier/drakengard). Honestly the main thing that got me about nier automata was the soundtrack.
>>377403485
Not him but definitively Nier.
>>377403485
Nier ofc, its the best OST ever and I still consider it better than Automatas.
Its also the best game in all other aspects too basically.
Then Drakengard 3, it has a much smaller OST but has a few amazing songs like the Final Song.
Then Drakengard 1 which is a completely different thing, especially OST wise.
>>377403739
i like pretty girls
>>377403739
Made by humans, humans like attractive things.
>>377403005
>but it's impossible for her to ever hope to outrank main duo in popularity or story
I don't know if it's exactly as my point, but wasn't she one of these very mysterious characters and then you could play as her? She wasn't in the main first route anyway so there was no point in ranking her in the begin with.
>>377403485
>>377403541
This guy gets it. Nier has some of the best OST in any videogame. Period.
Unfortunately, it also has that fucking Northern Plains song that will stay with you till you die.
Drakengard feels like like someone decided to drill a hole in my eardrums and fuck it. It's fucking weird and tormenting but it's still some kind of degenerate sex.
>>377403739
They got combat uniforms
>>377403739
They imitate humans. They are sentient beings. She wants to seduce other androids. The director likes pretty girls.
>>377403739
Because sex appeal. That's all, horny virgins are so escapist they latch on to and inflect.
Not saying there's anything wrong with it, but I also laugh at "2deep4u robot with feelings Big O" waifu simulator
>>377403739
YoRHa is a propaganda squad first and foremost.
The real firepower during their operations is flight units and satellite beams.

Doesn't seem like it with your spergout rant about horny virgins and escapism. Projecting much?
Stop commenting on games you didn't even play.
>>377403829
Yeah, she didn't interacted with the two first MC, so why ranking her is significant to the story?
Now that the dust settled you can kill yourself
>>377403739
If they're human looking then why NOT have them be attractive?
But what's the purpose of making them androids? Why not give them 4 arms so they can quad-wield? Remove legs, place boosters/treads/wheels whatver.
Who said they had to look like humans in the first place?Taro did, because he likes girls.
>>377404167

It's a decent song, all things considered, just that the first half is kinda repetitive and you HAVE to listen to it every time you want to go the Forest/Aerie/Junk Heap.
I liked Cold Steel Coffin because I didn't visit the Aerie nearly as much and wheneever I did, I was there long enough for the song to not feel like a 20 second loop.

Was I not paying attention or was this not fully explained in the game? Why did she feel bad about killing 9s as opposed to the others? How many times had she killed him? And why? Because he was asking too many questions?
>>377404875
>Why did she feel bad about killing 9s as opposed to the others
It wasn't fully explained but heavily hinted to that she did killed 9S more than once. The side-story material elaborates on it. You should read it.
>>377404875
There's a lot of stuff that isn't fully explained in the game.
>>377404875
I think all the executioner models eventually breakdown from having to assassinate other members of Yorha (like that other E model that you meet in the game). The fact that they were programmed with emotions like guilt just shows how much of an asshole the androids who created Yorha are.
>>377401335 >>377401540
Fun fact: The commander was 2B's original design before they came up with we have currently
>>377403739
>Can someone explain me why an android would look like this?
Androids in this universe are obsessed with mankind and go out of their way to mimic them.
YorHa units (the organisation 9S and 2B fight for) in addition to performing combat duties, are also meant to provide a morale boost for the androids that live and fight in abject misery back on earth.
The uniforms don't really come across as sexy in the game, there's a really creepy, cultish vibe to them.
>>377405151
>The uniforms don't really come across as sexy in the game, there's a really creepy, cultish vibe to them.
I just thought they were cute.
>>377405113
Nah, I doubt it, the commader's design suits a commander character too much and a heroine character too little.
>>377405078
According to side materials, she broke down a long time ago already and asked 9S to kill her.
In return 9S killed himself and insisted that she would keep killing him as it's the only way for them to really be together.
The one who created YoRHa was a nice guy, a scientist who thought about them as his family. It's the one who changed his initial design is a complete asshole. And that was 9S' prototype who also destroyed the entire satellite base and killed all other prototypes.
Which means 9S is both the main character and villain of this story.
>>377405113
Are you sure?

Did we play the same game?
>>377403739
"Glory to Mankind"
This phrase is their creed, they use it as a salute and sometimes a chant, they whisper it when they die in battle.
Would robots that look like fat lards or covered up in excessive clothing like a muslim look like glorification of mankind to you? Keep in mind they are androids, armor is mostly useless to them except in cases where they'll be needing it for large scale operations, not infiltration/reconnaissance. And when said large scale operation happens she wears said armor as well.
>>377405254
> "free me from my yoke of iron" finally makes sense
>>377405254
>Which means 9S is both the main character and villain of this story.
No real reason to think of them as the same person though.
They probably aren't even that related - for example 2B is based on A2 as the prototype - not the number two who was there with Zinnia.
>>377405368
Yep, glad Taro explained that.
>>377405194
You are right and he's right, that was the whole point of that style, mixing a lot of things togheter.
Obviously the shitposters will only pick the aspects they can shitpost about.
>>377405332
If you didn't feel the creepy cultish vibe at all there is something really wrong with you. Hell, even the color palette of the game helps in making it feel like that.
>>377404679
Looks like a clit.
>>377405492
50 minutes in and i felt the same anon.
>>377405396
>No real reason to think of them as the same person though.
It's a confirmed fact that number is related to personality type.
They are different models but they are the same person. They even use the same phrases.
2B carries the same personality data as A2, too. And that data traces back all the way to Zinnia's prototype as it's their blueprints Number 9 has sent to the moon server.
Hell, Zinnia himself is a base for pod 042.
The only really different thing about number 2/9 and 2B/9S is that prototypes never got close to each other while 2B and 9S eventually fell for each other and it changed them completely.
>>377405396
#2 is the Prototype for both.
Basically goes like this #2 > A2 > 2B, #9 and 9S arent the same persons but they are very closely related as seen what happened right away when 9S was activated.
A2 is the best
and 60 is cute
;_;
>>377405293
>top right
Goddamn that's nice. I wish we got more costumes in game that let us look like other models/other potential 2B designs.
>>377405620
>>377405645
Debatable, A2 was a prototype - that would normally mean she is new.
But not my point anyway, you simply cannot really think of them as the same person.
>>377394806
>>377402279
Most people don't actually hate those things though, just how the mainstream handles them. Nier is full of pandering but the characters in Nip games aren't centered around their social identity. Nier is a story about robots and existentialism. Also the way it's marketed is a huge indicator as well.
Japan can do these thing because they throw the concept of social convention into a shredder. When big western companies do it, they make it a big deal, that is more often than not, terribly written.
>>377405712
>A2 was a prototype
Her MODEL was a prototype, not a personality data.
She was shaped into a unique person thanks to her memories with her squad and A4 just like 2B was shaped by her love to 9S so they ended up being a tsundere and kuudere despite having the same basic design.
>you simply cannot really think of them as the same person
For all intends and purposes, personality number 9 is indeed both the villain and main character. They evolved differently and had different self-consciousness cores, but it's literally the same personality design.

The only gaming company I've really seen do this is Bioware. Meanwhile, on /v/, faggots go full autism mode and start screeching about forced diversity any time a character that isn't a white male shows up in a game made by Western developers.
>>377405712
She was a prototype YoRHa unit. Her personality along with #21 existed already far before YoRHa was established.
You are right that they are not the same person on the principle that they dont have the same memories. If you switched #9 during the creation of YoRHa with 9S you'd most likely end with the same scenario. It was 2B that changed 9S, not because his personaliy was changed.
Hell 9S most likely almost destroyed Androidkind along with his accomplices when they hijacked Atlantis before he met 2B and calmed down.
>>377406058
>Hell 9S most likely almost destroyed Androidkind along with his accomplices when they hijacked Atlantis before he met 2B and calmed down.
I wonder why Commander even kept such a crazy individual fully knowing his destructive potential.
It's like trying to keep a monster on a leash despite knowing that a single precedent of losing control over him will mean entire Bunker will go down in flames and nothing will stop him.

A2 should've destroyed the 9 model

>>377404608
I love Wretched Automatons for the same reason I like Cold Steel Coffin, I'm usually in the Junk Heap long enough to listen to more than 20 seconds of the song.
The entire problem is that Northern Plains is usually limited to >Get on boar >Dash to another place. Which takes maybe 15 seconds at most.
If I had to spend more time on the plains I might not mind the song too much. I can respect your opinion, but I can't agree with it.
>>377406217
He will become a good person. 2B will make sure of it.
>>377405567
I'm convinced then.
>2B (narration): Even so, I continued on by his side, without even knowing the name of the emotion I'd been feeling.
>9S: I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel something special towards 2B.
Those goofballs are so precious.
>>377406303
Did you like not get 10 Goat hides or something?
I spent a ton of time there. But I agree, it does get annoying that it starts and then you cut it short.
Too good song you just want to keep listening - Taro did the same in Automata

>>377405978
I agree with you, though it's mostly EA as a whole and a bunch of indies I see do it. My reasoning for this is conditioning. After being fed shit in various smelly forms over the years, the community is jaded. One red flag is usually enough to predict when something is shit.

And that's not what he said, you aren't so stupid to not get that rhetoric was put there only to underline that making it looking glaringly good/beuty/sexy/cute whatever in that kind of context works better than than not giving a shit about those qualities. You don't like the style and and you would have prefered the same concept with a different style, and that's fine, but try to shitpost less.
>>377406989
Ubi/Blizzard as a company sure, but I don't really see it in their games side maybe Overwatch. Watch Dawgs 2 makes sense given the setting. Seeing a black guy and special snowflakes in Sanfran is nothing special.
I don't play Uncharted so I wouldn't know.
>>377408598

Picking that and making it your setting is already part of the pandering.

I got the goat hides in the little area before the desert and didn't have to farm much because I was killing them every time I wanted to visit Facade (pre fast-travel). So yeah.
I absolutely agree on the Automata thing though. Couldn't get enough of those but I can't just wait around forever.

Pandering to who? White males don't play games just because they have white males. Unlike fags and women who will play anything no matter how trash as long as it's pandering to them.

He was a pedo living alone in the woods with a bunch of young boys and I'm supposed to believe he only jacked off the entire time? That's like a fat bitch living alone in a house full of cakes. She may not eat a cake, but I'll be damned if she doesn't stick her finger in one and lick the frosting.
>>377411463
As neat as that looks, how is that machine not dying in two or three hits? The game doesn't have enemy level scaling for whatever fucking reason.
>>377411182
You must be retarded because that does not logically follow. If white males played every game that had a white male in it then every game with a white male would be a smash hit which is obviously not the case. White males are the standard character because that's who the devs are, white males. It's understandably easier for them to make games about people similar to them than to try and make a middle-aged indian woman the main character.
