Honestly the moment i understood that you see the game title for the first time only on route B, i understood that he's the actual MC and he didn't disappoint. He's the best Automata character and of all Taro rides he had some of the wildest.

He also has a great chemistry with 2B even if she tries her hardest to appear emotionless and aloof. When shit goes down both of them always try their hardest to protect each other, completely dropping their usual demeanour. I think the game perfectly captured the mood of two of them being alone in a weird and hostile world. They are like rays of light for each other and i'm happy that they got a chance to live in a peaceful world.

>>384723384
He is presented as somewhat annoying (and 2B as unnecessarily distant) in Route A.
You see that he's actually very capable and puts in a good share of the effort in Route B.
In Route CD, he's fighting despite knowing the truth, being infected with a logic virus, and wanting to lash out at all of the bullshit that made him suffer his greatest losses.
And with all of the other supplemental information and Intel, 9S is very endearing.

His fighting style is limited only if you perceive him as having lost heavy attacks. Where 2B's Light Hold attack is usually some kind of weak dash, 9S's Light Holds are very powerful stingers (spear, fists) or mid range shredders (swords). With a Shockwave Chip giving him greater range, and when you incorporate weapon switching, 9S is just as versatile as 2B.
Add on the hacking (both as an in-combat thing to nuke a cluster of enemies and a sort of stealth preemptive attack on one enemy to Subjugate them) and I found him more fun and powerful than 2B.

Only thing I would have liked to have was the ability to equip three weapon sets, so I could have a Spear, Small Sword and Long Sword at the ready for 9S.

>>384723384
Best character in the game by a longshot and one of Taro's better written characters

>you'll never put your dick in his butt

>>384723674
Jesus Christ I hated going back to 2B or A2 after having the hacking shit with 9S. Honestly, the gameplay never really clicked with me enjoyment-wise. It was servicable and not really a hinder in any way, but for some reason I never really enjoyed it like I would Bayonetta, DMC or MGR. Can't stop listening to some of the songs from the OST after finishing though, that shit was top-notch, especially Weight of the World.

>>384725425
>9S is just as versatile as 2B.
I'd say he greatly beats her in versatility aspect simply because he deals a fuckload of damage at any range and has access to stun/dot ability.
Fighting drill worms with girls is annoying as shit, with him it's a single spear toss or hack.

Honestly, spear toss became my primary method of attacking since it does really good damage without the necessity of getting close. Add to that with the Spear of the Usurper at lvl 3 or 4, whichever gives the second ability, you can occasionally insta-kill enemies by making them fight for you and detonating them or just have them rampage.

I remember not liking his limited moveset. Then when I went back to 2B I missed the hacking.

Only problem is that so much of C&D would have hit harder if the side stories were in game.

Like if instead of those cardboard play cutscenes for the bosses we'd have more little flashbacks to say, memory cage.

Imagine a hacking sequence that drops you into an arena with 2B before you really understand everything.

>>384725812
Spear of the usurper may as well be his canon weapon, it suits his playstyle immensely, as well as Demon's Cry because its unique ability coupled with his insane ranged ora ora move explodes an entire encounter with a single throw.

They had a change of heart thanks to him. Given that A2 destroys the Ark by swapping herself with 9S, he arguably could destroy it too, yet he re-evaluated his life at last moment too.
That ending is beautiful because representatives of both machines and androids managed to stop the violence while being one step away from destroying everything.

>>384731167
>Given that A2 destroys the Ark by swapping herself with 9S, he arguably could destroy it too, yet he re-evaluated his life at last moment too.
I think the reason he didn't destroy the Ark had more to do with the fact that A2's sword was pierced through his stomach and the logic virus had corrupted his mind thus he was literally ten seconds away from death.

>>384731319
I think that he was simply shocked to see his enemy just approaching him like that and showing him that they changed and have no desire to destroy androids anymore.
At least the scene with Adam deeply moved 9S and made him question his life.

They were better friends, maybe. But I feel the quality of the character writing was consistent between both games. NieR was about you and your squad with the world against you. Tomato had its characters more isolated because it was about perpetual, meaningless war and the strife encountered therein. You didn't have as concrete of a team because they wanted to stress the themes of fear and paranoia at an unknown enemy.

But even so, you can't tell me you didn't die a little inside when you had to kill 21O.

>>384737376
"Roger that, Nine...ze."

9S was easily the best nier character.

He was able to meet god (the moon server) and wanted to break the circle of purposeless life by destroying it, just like the machines did when they killed the aliens.
The machines were able to create own human like societies and lived for different purposes (the king, beauty, family) while the androids kept on fighting an endless war because the server told them to.

Not too fond of him but whatever

>>384737220
Her two cute feet

>>384737638
But the machines doing that was because the Network / N2 gimped themselves, right?

>>384737638
The reason you meet machines in the game which evolved beyond "kill all androids" is solely because N2 let them believe they were off the Network and gave them a couple hundred years to macerate in that new atmosphere for the express purpose of examining the results.

Meanwhile, it is shown that androids that do something else get culled by E-models. It's their job!

I don't know why it was so awful having to kill 210 I guess it was because you learned that even the most aloof androids were secretly utterly lonely and depressed, and you have to end her sad excuse for a life when all she wanted was to be happy.

From what I gathered she just really hated machines for killing so many people she knew. So she just wanted to kill any and all machines and didn't really understand her own motivations

Nice.

I enjoyed him more than the girls.
He's basically Bomberman...without pants (which may or may not be pro to some people)

>that hand
>bought

2-5 years in prison when the police arrest you for a B&E, burglary and probably assault.

I thought it was kinda sexy when he tore off that 2B clone's hand and used it to replace his own, anyone else?

He was someone created to be killed over and over again by the one he loved the most. There was subtle hints that he already know of it all, but he accepted it, yet that was denied of him, and with the losing his waifu he died

truly the romeo and juliet of vidya
