>Wretched Weaponry>>>The Wretched Automatons

I posted your exact opinion and I got blasted almost every time I say it. You do mean to say that the automata remix is better than the original one right?

I am a secondary so I went back to play Nier after finishing automata, but I think outside of wretched automatons which I for some reason ABSOLUTELY DETESTED, every other BGM in Nier is better than its Automata counterpart.

>>384004061
if we are talking about first-time-moments, nothing touched me harder than my first time reaching the opera boss.

Still gets to you in the end.

>>384003609
I like it though, if anything the twists gave me more incentive to blast through the game ASAP and reduce the down-time in between major happenings.

>>384004345

I played Nier 1 on release and I think the automata ost is better than Nier 1. It really is simply a matter of opinion though, both ost are far above any other ost, though the supergiant games come close.

These OST wars are fucking pathetic.
Both games have incredible OSTs but Automata's one is undeniably more diverse and incorporates itself into gameplay way better.

>>384004513
I agree that on their own the OSTs are about on part but Automata has better sound direction. In fact I think very few games can even compare to Automata in that regard. Taro and Okabe work amazingly well together.

>>384004513
>both ost are far above any other ost, though the supergiant games come close

I agree, bastion's OST was employed the same way as Nier's OSTs did and it was really enjoyable when it was did right.

I would say MGR's OST also plays a big part in making the game feels good, but not quite on the same level for obvious reasons.

I would say that Nier's OST are not as good if you don't hear it during the context of playing the game. Automata's OST is more accessible than Nier but I would say it has less impact than Nier when both OSTs are played during the game.

character design aside, I always felt that she was destined to be nothing but the cliche "I will stay with my ship till the last minute" captain-esque character so I am not really surprised she does nothing at all but exactly that.

IMO A2, Adam and Eve are the real disappointments in the character development department. A2 is like a third wheel throughout the entire playthrough of route C getting involved in things she wouldn't be caught in in the first place (ignoring pod's involvement)

>>384005071
As with most characters, you come to understand way more about her after you've already finished the game with ending E.
The fact she gave 9S those documents is extremely intriguing.

Transistor is great though. Not as good as Bastion, but still a very good game.

Don't get your hopes up. It was confirmed by Taro that they had neither the budget nor manpower for anything other than minor DLC. Whatever Taro is working on next is guaranteed to have a greater budget now that Taro has some fame with the unexpected success of Automata.

Adam worked perfectly thematically.
His very first sentence is asking you why you are harming him, then he starts getting into the desire of evolving and you see him making fun of his "grandparents" (the aliens) for being a race that lacked complex rationality and emotion (iirc correctly he compared them to plants or something like that). Then he starts getting into human culture more and more, studying, dressing like what is supposed to be an anime-ish refined gentleman and building a beautiful, but all those refined things weren't enough to satisfy his thirst for, humanity, human culture and evolution.
All the refined ideas, acts, and works we human always boast about are nothing more than only a very limited part of our nature, even if we always try to sell that as the pinnacle of our nature it's actually very far from the essence of humanity.
Most underrated character of the game by far, imo.

I mean..granted, but you're still controlling an enemy machine in a segment where you can mess around with controlling it in a safe environment right before playing as a character who has a gimmick around hacking and controlling enemy machines.

It's possibly nothing, but you can't entirely dismiss the possibility.

He didn't quite understand how humanity dressed, he tied a neck tie like a bow tie and wore a belt over his pants

>>384007850
Its LITERALLY the exact same twist, I understand the humor can get in the way but its the same thing. The voices are what make it funny.

Automata is a comedy/tragedy while the first NieR is a straight drama. Just cause its funny doesn't mean its any less sad, that just makes it more interesting honestly.

The first NieR has way too much sadness thrown in your face for shit that you didn't even do or couldn't avoid. Basically after route B is "do you feel bad for doing this yet? do you feel bad now??"

Automata does a pretty good job at making you feel a lot of mixed emotions all at once

>>384008245

The only time you get to control a machine is if you sneak up on it and hack it, don't try to make it sound like that's the main purpose of hacking.. Most people don't know that you can even control the machines before the factory section where you're forced to do it. It's not a tutorial, it's just a segment for the story.

It's honestly one of the weaker moments of the game since it just kind of comes out of nowhere.

i thought the game was cool but it feels like the parts of the "plot" i find the most interesting are things that are inferred the idea that 2b has been murdering 9s over and over and over again or that 9s is aware of her role seems like a fan theory for how much evidence there is in-game to support it

i'm going down a deep taro hole now (having only finished the game last night) trying to piece all of this shit together but it only poses further questions

>>384009282

Also its a natural evolution of the "This Cannot Continue" section

Dude, there are 3 quests about suicidal androids. They are war machines that are inclined to resolve inner conflicts with auto-destruction (and, yeah, there is a pretty clear thematic a connection with mankind), linking that to a cult was a perfect idea.

>PC version somehow managed to sell almost 500k
>PC version STILL abandoned
fucking why?

>>384010525

Not the guy you are replying to but I both agree and disagree. It got a bit disjointed at times rapidly switching between A2 and 9S but if you notice as route C progresses, the switching between A2 and 9S becomes more frequent the closer they are to encountering eachother. At that part near the end where you are switching between them like every minute or so it made my heart pound, like "oh shit, they are going to meet eachother soon and it is not going to end well".

It was an interesting detail I noticed with a second playthrough that subconsciously increased the tension for the player.

You can still do it via chapter select, or new game plus the whole thing again as a victory lap.

And thosr were my favorite parts. Taro is really great when he uses the medium like you described. That ending where you can sacrifice your data and the first time I had to "reactivate" 9S were some of the most memorable experiences I had with a video game. It's just that after so many deaths I stopped caring for the characters. Like when the children killed each other out of "fear". After all we had been through (Yorha, 2B and Pascal's Village all gone), it felt trivial. I felt that the same problem happened with how he exposed the whole machines imitating humans thing. After the third or forth "but machines can't do that!" moment it lost its impact.

i can agree some of the deaths did not hit as hard, like how i felt more bad for pascal than his village. The weight of misery that 2b and 9s were going through really outclassed most of the other characters suffering. That being said having to take down 21O right after doing her quest and realizing she just wanted a family was harsh.

Also did anyone else manage to hack all the machines at the beginning of route C and get the secret 21O dialog? What did she mean by this?

>>384009314
the idea that 2b has been murdering 9s over and over and over again

Is there any shame in accepting help and not deleting my save?

I have not started the DLC which I have purchased already for some time now. I can't start the DLC without completing the base game yet the base game is telling me to hara kiri if I don't clear the ending sequence alone.

The farthest I've gotten was past E-Commerce at the third checkpoint, putting me at about 60% to the end. I have never played a danmaku either and getting past Quality Assurance after the Marketing Division sequence and getting the third checkpoint put me to bed. My head hurt so much from all the oxygen and pressure even after I woke up and went to bed again after the pain welled up once more.

Everyone stated that the DLC spoils ending E when it was released, because the content breaks the narrative and structure of the base game.

Its about to become the fourth day I have been stuck at the ending E boss. I rage quit two days ago at Quality Assurance, but went at it again and beat the segment yesterday. I think I really have spent more time on the boss than most people will spend playing Nier Automata. Therefore I'm now inclined to just get help and not delete my save.
I have already pondered about uploading my save after doing ending E a second time, but concluded that I will then take the files of two people.

I have already deleted my Nier 1 save before. So after much thinking and carrying the weight of the world, almost a week of trying, I might as well use someone's file and keep my save this time.

People who played Ending E at version 1.00 are lucky. Version 1.06 buffed ending E enemies.

I pirated the game myself at first and during the credits I just decided to fuck it and buy it anyway because I loved it. I still haven't seen what's after the credits, I'm just slowly doing another playthrough. With that said I should probably leave the thread because some fucker is sure to spoil the ending now.

Im a newfaggot when it comes to Taro games but is there a connection between Automata and Drakengard 3?

>>384016649
not really
Drakengard and Nier games take place in the same "universe" but because of story branches and time travel they have little in common, especially D3
the only thing that connects them is a reference to a D3 character

>>384016649
There's barely a connection between Drakengard 3 and 1 to begin with, so I doubt it.

Nah, you people are forgetting that the main character of that part was 2B's pod itself, it (and, yeah, the player) is the one who was getting the charadevelopment in that part, while the main characters got the positive consequences of it.

I wasn't implying that 2B and 9S were definitely overcoming their loop. If anything its more like a more positive version of Kimochi Warui.

I more talking about how the narration is very similar to the one by Rei, Kaworu, and Yui about breaking cycles and finding happyness

>>384019589

also, lets not forget that congratulations was half speaking to the viewer as well

Taro definitely likes his Eva, he said his favorite anime was 2.22, which is funny, because alot of the problems in the script come about from it feeling more like one of the rebuilds at times than NGE.

Like, each bit of drama needed more setup and was really sold by presentation and music, but it was still 70% there.

they managed to break the chain which is what ending e really meant. No more proxy wars, no more yorha, and no more having to kill each other.

If the problem is the grinding, you can beat the lv 80 rabbit easily with hacking to get a fuckton of exp, the exp chips obviously help as well. If the problem is that you are afraid of getting bored since the quests/getting weapons and materials is too chore-ish and the game doesn't have contents specifically made for lv50-90, buy or pirate the dlc, it has some fun post game gameplay contents,gives remote controlling a purpose, and it's a good excuse to have fun with A2's gameplay and the lv4 weapons.

>>384019417
Nah, just get Anti-Chain Damage and increase your max HP and you can easily heal after every hit, so you're good to go even if you're really underlevelled.

Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . that is if you can handle it...

Androids derive pleasure and something close to love from battle according to jackass.
A2 has been on her own doing nothing but fighting for years.
Which means?

Yeah, you are right, the tone is very similar.

>>384020803
Yes and no. That chain was broken during ending D by the network fucking off and because of the pod getting its developing in Ending E, what you said was the consequence of those two endings, not the content of one of them. The characters themselves failed from any point of view, but those failures weren't useless for the pod and gave him the strength to go beyond his own nature, to evolve, and to do that "embarrassing" 100% emotive kamikaze attack to try to give the main characters a second chance.

Yeah, the amusement park was honestly the most pointless and out of place section in the entire game, as what went into the game.

I felt there was more that was supposed to be there, but really all we ever got out of it was a side story about a crazy robot cannibal.
