Not even, it's been over 8,000 years since the last Human drove one of those things. The cities shouldn't even be there anymore.

not even the worst offender

what bodies? All the bodies you see are of androids who were made in the image of their human creators, and they don't degrade as fast as an organic being

The cars you might have a point, but I appreciate the nature creeping into an abandoned town kind of vibe.

>>378856931
The buildings in fw are intact too. You'd thing abductors would have knocked most of them down just by running into shit

To be fair the white chlorination plague broke out in about 1998 or something according to Drakengard 1's ending E. But the cars still look odd.

>>378857007
he specifically said "car bodies" you illiterate retard

>>378856931
I'm pretty sure there's someone driving those cars outside of Panopticons, although I can't begin to guess who. That or it's just those On High people dropping trucks onto the ground when they aren't using them.

>>378856393
The Tokio incident was in 2003. Chlorination Syndrome began the same year.
Then the world had to face the Legion and things only got worse.
Then replicants came about and had their own medieval societies.
Then some humans managed to reunite but the original gesthalt was dead so they eventually all died off.
Then aliens invade the new replicant society? Not sure about this.
The world you explore in Automata is what remains of the world hundred of years after the one you explore in the first Nier.

I mean, the pyramids are 4000+ years old and still exist, so why not.

Budget.

Gets even worse when you consider american houses are made out of plywood and crumpled tissue paper which rot to dust within a decade.

>>378856393
Good God is this environment empty and uninspiring.

Why couldn't it be more like souls games' environment, or any other quasi openworld game?

Graphics are shit but it doesn't do anything creative to justify low poly and res.

Supposedly the androids attempt to maintain buildings for the return of the humans, but with limited supplies and being dumb androids they don't know what maintenance means beyond "it still stands."

>>378859029
>american houses are made out of plywood
And this is relevant to Automata how?
Did you miss all the CONCRETE buildings?

>>378859029
This is not true in the slightest.
