Should I buy this on PS4 Pro or PC? Heard there were some issues with the PC port
>>
>>377499019
PC port is fine as long as you are using parts from within the last 2-3 years.
>>
>>377499057

Using a 4690k and a 1070

Is it a bad port?
>>
Only problem with PC port is the damn KB+M control is horrible, two fucking button for dodging, that's just unfair.

though you can mod it so the pod fire becomes toggleable, which is neato.
>>
"Buy" it on PC.
>>
Just pirate it. The crack has been out for a couple weeks now.
>>
Why not just pirate it? Didn't it get cracked?
>>
Make sure your PC has a good GPU otherwise it will be unplayable, even at the lowest settings.
Also get a gamepad. In any case, just pirate it to try if your computer can handle it.

>>377499108
Looks alright to me then.
>>
>>377499121
Which mod is that?
The fix from the turboautist?
>>
Yeah, I've got a 770 GTX and it's pretty hard to get it running smoothly. I'm sure that as long as you have a 1070ish or so, it would run better.

You would run it at a solid 60. I used an FX-8350 and 1060 and ran it at max with the framerate dipping into the high 40's when a lot of shit was going on.

It's a passable port, not fantastic but with your specs it would run completely fine.

Take note of what >>377499121 said, this game is not for KB+M, play it with a controller. If you have a PS4 you should be fine with using the controller from that.
>>
Pirate the 9gb repack. Otherwise, just get it on ps4. The game isnt very mod friendly anyway as is usual with platinum games.

Nobody else would have published it. The game wouldn't exist without them.

>>377499108
It never dips under 60 fps with a 1070, whether you use the FAR patch or not.
You still need to use that patch or Borderless Gaming to fix the rendering resolution though. Also like others have said, you either play this with a gamepad or you weep.

I doubt it has any glaring differences with the ps4 pro performance wise.

It works fine on pc as long as you use gamepad. I didnt use a controller and the shooter sections are horrid cus you can only shoot in 8 directions. Those sections arent hard by any means but its looks silly. Literally my only complaint on PC

iirc the digital foundry video showed their seems to be an issue with the PS4 Pro version where the game oddly dropped into the 50s very rarely in places where the regular PS4 didn't. Maybe they patched it or something but that's probably worth noting. Have fun with the game wherever you decide to play it. Don't despair when things look bad.

pirate cracks are very unstable atm. I tried a few diff cracks and all consistently crashed the game within an hour or so of gameplay for me, and apparently I'm not alone.

I enjoyed the game enough to buy it tho, am running it with FAR with no issues other than the rare white screen crash that happens to pretty much everyone iirc.

great game but shit port btw. For the way it looks there's no way it demands the hardware it does to run at 60fps 1080p

>Just admit that youre a corporate boot licker.

Semi-correct, I actually work for one of the companies mentioned above, as a dev.

It's really not up for dedate, people who money have no reason to risk commiting a felony.

The only case you can make is one of convenience, which doesn't hold true anymore.

Back in the day, torrents were the fastest method to acquire games, especially old ones that weren't up for sale anymore.

With steam the downloads are faster, you have access to most older games, cracking games have also become a much bigger pain in the ass.

The *only* people willing to goes through all those hoops to avoid paying are people who can't afford it. This is not a debate.

Because 2B is rounder, while Raiden is literally edgy with all the metals sticking out.

Unironically this. I pirated the shit out of everything when I was in high school because I couldn't afford anything.

Nu /v/ actually coddles these autists and they shit up threads with their edge.

>>377500857
MGR worked fine and its functionally the same minus the pod
S**t square enix deliberately made the pc controls ass (dodge is two full key presses while on a controller it is one who does that??) just like they didn't have a pc release date till the ps4 release and all the advertising had no mention of pc
to be fair the game should have had a pod overheat system to incentive using it when enemy was out of range rather than macroing it to toggle on/off or just include a toggle for pod fire so consolebros can get on the same level as pcfags using autohotkey
>>
>>377501039
You lock on with Q, but I play on Hard/Very Hard so I don't lock on.

In fact, being able to aim with the mouse is a huge advantage for KB+M, just too bad the dodge button requires TWO INPUT.

A 920gtx isnt a toaster lol.

A toaster is having a 1.8ghz processor, 2gb gpu and 4gb ram. I doubt Nier can run with those specs.

I'm in the same boat and I'm thinking of buying the ps4 version just because muh physical box and sticking with a pirated pc copy for now.

I counted the time it takes to get to the first buss with the saw thing is like 10-15 minutes. So I just lost like 30 minutes in this game with the no save at all meme.

I know people are gonna say git gud, but this is just annoying, having to do it all when I can get past the other sections just fine. Games in the past usd to do that for two reasons: pad games because they were in fact quite short, and to be like Arcades that had cheap difficulty to milk quarters from people.

Are you supposed to play on Normal kind of deal in Nier Automata?

Spam the everloving fuck out of dodge and use your pod to do a lot of damage. Only melee when you are positive that you won't get hit back.

Usually people tell you to switch to normal for the tutorial. Hard is kinda annoying in the beginning since you have shit chips but it gets better when you get them later on and makes the game slightly more challenging. Under no circumstances are you supposed to play on normal unless you want to sleep through the game.
>>
>>377501712

So basically melee is useless in this game? I see a lot of people just circle strafing.

if you can't be bothered to finish the first 30 minutes of a game on hard nobody's forcing you you know. just play on normal and then switch back.

higher than normal difficulty is pointless in nier automata since the enemy groups are identical they just have more hp and do more damage

This desu. At one point normal got boring for me until i switched to hard. Wish I'd done it sooner

Name one game platinum made past 2010 that wasnt an action game.
>>
>>377501904
Those are a bit of a piss-off, I agree. Normal mode is pretty much the best gamemode to play the game in. It becomes a cakewalk later on though so you may want to consider changing to hard when you find yourself steamrolling the game.
>>
>>377502005
This game? It's an action RPG.

But that's another point, there are already a ton of Plat action games, stick to those.

>>
>>377501982
The story is really fucking good. Try it out.
>>
>>377501904
Seriously, put it on normal for now, change it back to hard again later, at about 20, maybe 15 hours depending on how many side quests you've done. Sounds casual as fuck but the truth is the difficulties are really poorly balanced.

After awhile it became more tolerable for me with higher level equipment and more heal items so hard is almost ok right now.
>>
>>377501959
Old games had lives and continues. They also had this "do all over again" design philosophy because many of them were quite short, like they had 5~ levels total so to make up for it, so players don't beat it in 3 hours they'd make it unforgiving in difficulty, also to imitate Arcades where this thing was a norm so people would have to spend many quarters to finnally beat a game instead of putting a coin once and don't feel like doing it ever again after you beat it in one session.

It's a meh port, performance isn't as good as it should be considering the outdated graphics, but it's not a complete train wreck like Dishonored 2 was for instance. A 1070 will have no issue at 1080p and it should do perfectly fine at 1440p with FAR too. You need to play it with a controller though, if you're OP and have a PS4 Pro you can just use that controller, obviously.

There's basically no reason to buy this on PS4 if you have a monitor beyond 1080p. It will look and run better on PC, FAR fixes some graphical issues which are still present in the console versions and you can get it cheaper than PS4 on GMG or other shops.

I'm playing with a 360 pad but it's sad they couldn't implement mouse controls properly for Automata, they should have made the top down shooting use the mouse for shooting direction. I mean this game involves a lot of shooting and aiming where the mouse excels at. It's more like they didn't know how to implement proper m+kb controls.

This game is unlike any other I played. And I played the first Nier. Its fucking weird because Ive never put down a game multiple times and then came back to play it again over and over.

Im 10 hours in, my first save and check out was at 2 hours in. I then waited maybe 3-4 days and played it again and checked out at 8 hours in.
Now I've been playing pretty much an hour or so a day. At 12 hours in now and I somehow dont care about the story at all. Ive been getting a lot of Metal Gear Solid mixed with Dark Souls 2 vibes from it. I also dont find 2b sexy at all, half her voice lines are Whats this and Whats going on during cutscenes.

Just finish the prologue on Normal and switch to Hard in the game proper. You should not play on Normal after the prologue though, because the game is absolutely braindead-easy on Normal and you will never die or be challenged in any way whatsoever. The perfect dodge and healing while paused are extremely powerful defensive options once you get into it properly and the game needs to otherwise be extremely punishing of mistakes to offset that.

>>377501795
No, melee does way more damage. It's perfectly usable once you're used to the game since the perfect dodge has a very generous timing window, you're meant to dodge and use the special retaliation after the dodge, which you will find yourself easily doing. Defensive chips are also very useful.

>>377502268

The other part of the game is liberal in save point.

Nah, you can change how many times you want, whenever you feel like it. That being said I never felt the need to switch to Normal after the prologue.

>>377503261
but why would they do that in the tutorial, it just makes me think "hey whats next, I'm having to do 15 mins of gameplay all over again, maybe I shouldn't play this game, I don't want to do 1 hour of content all over again because I fucked up"

Ideally, he wants you to play on normal.

Nines, i want to have lots of unprotected hacking with you until you access my main menu.
>>
Something inside me is not letting me put this game down. I think the forced tutorial, forced tryhard story, forced sexy clothing and forced action combat are ironically bringing out the RPG parts of the game. I mustve spent at least a quarter of my time in menus and talking to shopkeepers.

I just wish the boss battles werent so gimmicky. The waterfall ruins city boss which took 30 mins had the opposite of its supposed effect on me. Fighting Adam was like some matrix shit. I dont know if I want to play more because I know its just gonna be more random shit thats supposed to connect to one story.

Id say this game is somewhere in the 6-7/10 range. Definetely not 10/10 or 9/10 like the normies praise it. During some parts I can just tell normies would be mindblown but I was sitting there unamused and aware of that.

Because it feels out of place. The story is something written by an edgy high school shounen kid. I mean come on fucking Pascal comes out of nowhere to grab 2b from getting blown away.

No really, after taking note that the commander was obviously doing some naughty stuff and that the machines were "misunderstood" at best i was certain that during the invasion the lid was going to pop and the protagonists would switch sides after the reveal (Didn't help that this was supposed to be the "A2 route", who had stated that it was "command" who had betrayed them as well as the fact the commander made some cryptic statements about "choises" to 9S)

Then the machines turned out not to be misunderstood, they were total, unrepentant, psychopathic, assholes

Then the commander didn't do anything wrong and she went kabloowey along with the bunker and all of YoRHa

Then 2B was infected

Then the prologue ended

They're cracking down on it. The restrictions to gifts they put into place a few weeks ago is evidence of that.

https://www.vg247.com/2017/05/04/steam-introduces-a-big-limitation-to-the-way-gifting-works/

Steam, along with almost every single developer of every size hate these key reseller sites. It wouldn't surprise me if they started banning people who bought some of these keys or gifts since a good amount of them are purchased using stolen credit cards.

I hope key resellers die out. They're a legitimate problem for the industry.
>>
>>377507317
Shouldn't be an issue, but don't buy from G2A. There are other key shops which simply sell games themselves and don't have regular users as sellers, so they can't be used to dump illegally acquired keys.
>>
>>377499430
Where did you find a good crack? The Baldman crack crashes so much for me it's unplayable.
>>
>>377507949
They should make it so having games removed from your account due to being stolen keys should remove the ability for you to redeem keys to your account; first for a limited time and then permanently if it keeps happening.

Additionally valve should then encourage devs to disable those stolen keys more frequently.
>>
>>377508227
how does G2A steal keys?
>>
>>377507949
I agree that they're bad, the stolen credit card thing is obviously something they shouldn't be able to take advantage of.
Just hoping my account (and my 100+ games) doesn't get banned because of where the person gifting me chose to buy their keys.
>>
>>377508296
Credit card fraud supposedly

>>377508407
Valve probably won't go that far, your account should be fine. Though I would avoid unofficial key resellers just in case.

Additionally when those purchases get chargebacked the devs/publishers of the games have to pay money for that, this is why developers would rather have you pirate their games than to buy them via sites like G2A.
Those people who bought those keys often get quite angry against the developers too when their keys get revoked due to that and try to spread negativity about them.
