While it doesn't compare to most AAA games in all likelihood, the game received an aggressive marketing push and it was clearly a much higher budget game than NieR. It's not the shoestring budget you make it out to be like Dragon's Crown which was one million.

The evolution of opinion consensus on Nier: Automata within /v/:

Release date:
This game is good! Solid 10/10, brand new waifu!!!!

1 week after:
This game is so deep, the subtle story telling on humanity, existentialism and trans-humanism is on par with the greatest thoughts the ancient sophists had!!!!!!!!!!!

6 months later:
This game is fucking shit and lacking. Weeaboo pandering bullshit with no real substance. Retarded jumbled plot and the director just has a hard-on for psuedo-intelligent bullshit he crams into his games.
>>
It was always a game first and foremost, most(if not all) AAA games prioritize ''muh cinematic experience'' above anything else. But it was a great game, even if I didn't enjoy the story up til ending c/d.

The combat is satisfying and not too difficult (unless you change the difficulty of course), the hacking minigame and the SHMUP aspects were also done pretty nice. I however disliked the hacking minigame quite a bit so I tried to avoid it whenever I could, but I still liked how it was integrated in the story, and also how the game presents and integrates lots of other stuff such as how chips affect your capabilities (you can even remove your OS chip and your android body will stop working).

Overall it was a pretty good experience, and I could (eventually) find a lot of well written character development as the story was progressing to it's end, but I wouldn't return to it.

What happens is a development house makes a game, if it does well you get lots of "special interest" groups offering money to have their propaganda shoved in the game.

I guarantee you if they make another Neir Automata it will be full social justice bullshit.

I played it, it was trash.
I completed it because it at least tried to promise some sort of variety in the future to enjoy it.
Where people hated 9S' gameplay, I loved it because I'm a fucking sucker for bullethells.

The actual combat and story are pathetically bad and it's arching undertones about humanism are basic as fuck only a American Highschooler would consider "deep".
>>
It was alright but they were lazy with the gameplay and the story is unironically the worst part about the game, despite focusing so much on it.

Overall the first game was the more rounded experience, but Automata is still heads and shoulders overt most bullshit rleleased today

He really didint, and he was one of the few characters that actually went anywhere.

The game's story felt like a first draft that they had to roll with for time constraints, and I didnt like how the gameplay was just copypasted from Nier 1 with very few adjustments, to the point the exact same balancing issues crop up for a second go.

I'm sure you'll continue along like a normie, blissfully unaware of the game's obvious shortcomings. Then you'll go back to questing in Skyrim, thinking it is also the best game ever. In fact, most quests are pretty similar to Skyrim. Go here, kill shit, come back.
>>
Remember that you're on /v/, where everything that becomes popular must be despised and torn apart even if /v/ was jerking off to it when it came out. Hell, even before it comes out some people think they have a sworn duty to "balance" the liking of something with rage and hatred, look at Sonic Mania, Mario Odyssey, Crash N. Sane Trilogy, any game that gets a really positive reception, in a week or so /v/ will have 180'd on it and declared it the worst shit ever full of SJW and liberal propaganda made only for normies.

My issue with the game is there's zero replay value. It's an extremely entertaining rollercoaster ride from start to finish, but the actual combat is so underdeveloped that there's no actual fun factor that makes you want to keep playing after your first run through all the endings. You can fuck around in the debug mode if you want, but actual fun combos are impossible to pull off outside a controlled space.

Gotta go a bit more in-depth there buddy. The UI and presentation parts were top-notch, story was bretty gud to brilliant, combat had depth for those that looked for it. It had the possibility of being pretty damn hard to laughably easy depending on what you wanted from the game.

Frankly, I'd want a more in-depth complaint here, because I can't really see what is wrong about it that can be attributed to such a general term.

This happened with Undertale. Shit was praised like a motherfucker and then it became reviled after the normies/tumblr started liking it.

I personally loved Nier:Automata but I have to admit that it has a lot of flaws when it comes to it's combat system. Nier allows healing spams, mindless grind and worst of all you can obliterate almost every enemy in the game just by running around and shooting lasers. For me fighting was just a chore most of the times. Perhaps I could have just control myself but I wanted to progress with the story too much to not force my way through the game with cheap tricks.

So /v/ pretended to like a game cause it wasn't popular but then hated it when it was popular

So /v/ never liked it

>contrarianism

Contrary to who? Even mainstream critics were really into it out of nowhere. The contrarianism came into play once faggots saw people on /v/ enjoying a game they had no personal interest in and had to put a stop to it. The game has flaws for sure but the amount of people you saw (and still do on occasion) bitching about having to play 5 times for the real ending and making it obvious they'd never touched the thing was absurd. The fapbait isn't even the protagonist and for a month or so after launch when people were actually discussing the game there was a huge drop in assposting.

I personally spammed spear throws like a nigger with 9S all the time, but I know that using a single technique to cheese shit is cheapening the game only for myself much for the same reasons the cape in Mario World is not a flaw of the game itself. If you want to ruin the game for yourself but also complain that it's the games fault go ahead, but it just makes you look like a dickweed. Not that you're doing that exactly, but a lot of people are. Overreliance on hacking or on Pods is not a flaw of the game, because you can be just as effective doing other shit as long as you don't suck.

My roomate was arguing like that almost always, complaining about the Souls series saying that anything other than backstabfishing is unoptimal and thus the games suck. I can understand, but I don't keep doing shit I find boring if I know I'm doing that to myself, rather than the game.

Well yeah, it shows. Environments are downright PS2-tier. They obviously focused all their effort in character models and 2Butt

Well, I just think Nier offers little to no challange. There are few enemies that punish you for trying to cheese them out like those partially bulletproof big machines and some bosses you could shoot forever at. Backstabbing in Souls was a little bit different, it was something one had to learn how to use on different foes over and over again while in Nier:Automata you don't need to learn shit and still beat the game. It wouldn't be even that bad if it wasn't combined with all the backtracking issues the game suffers (I like how they managed to minimise the boredom tho). It literally repeatedly throws you into encounters you're sure you can win without getting hit once. I really enjoyed the game, really did. It was probably the best gaming experience since the first Dark Souls or perhaps even RE4. But the fights with mobs (unless they were really numerous) weren't the reason and there's no replayability value for me. Sadly.

just use hp and defense boosting chips and keep your health topped off, don't buy small recoveries because it's fastest to just use two mediums when you get hurt

You're supposed to be a super weaponized android with butt in this game.
Soulsfags apparently forgot what fun is millenia ago.

I don't have a hateboner for this game but there is a lot I didn't like about it

>it likes to show off philosophical concepts, but rarely does anything with them
>the sections in the flight suits were tedious and unfun
>the story turns into a clusterfuck when the Tower appears. Like I understand what's happening but I just stopped caring about the machines part of it.
>The bosses started off very promising, but then they reuse the same one like 5 times with a different name
>hacking minigame is boring

That said, I loved a lot of parts too

>9s going fucking nuclear when his waifu died. I just love the concept of playing as a broken person.
>the backstories of areas and bosses on the second playthrough
>the creativity used to make new enemies using premade assets
>certified mad cunt Emil ruining cutscenes
>good as fuck music
>VA for the machines was excellent
>weapon stories

>>386169241
You will want to switch to hard when you get overpowered from finishing side quests. Playing the prologue on hard is a beginner's trap.
>>
>>386167369
I agree with everything you said.

But I don't care if there's no replay value. The experience was rich enough and I'll never forget it. The "value" is in the hours of time you get to talk about the game with people you'll meet.

>>it likes to show off philosophical concepts, but rarely does anything with them

I do think it did a little bit with them but some of the references are silly, and I'm pretty sure it was intentional.

>the game is all about robots reading into humanity and repeating all our mistakes without actually understanding them
>the game features a robot who has named himself after Jean Paul Satre, will wax philosophical,when you never asked him to, about existence precluding essense and all that shit, without actually understanding what the fuck he's saying, all while the game clearly shows he's so far up his ass that he can't connect with his "lovers" he love him because he quotes deep shit instead of innovating on it at all. He, thanks to his pretentiousness, drives Simone, herself named after Simone Beauvoir (existential feminist) to seek to turn herself into the very kind of woman Simone Beauvoir warned not to be (a woman who bases her entire existence on how she satisfies men, or as Satre would put it "living in bad faith").

Satre was known for his open relationship with Simone in real life, as well as being player, despite him being ugly as fuck.

Its almost like the game is going:

>people are probably gonna call me out for shallow references
> I know, so I'm gonna show self awareness at least.

People in general are too uptight about philosphy and how its used. There's alot of silly little references but Satre and Simone are actually pretty well done.


Plus it ties into Ending E's whole thing of having players overcome the loops we're often stuck in of hating each other for stupid shit, just so we can beat the game and allow our trio to overcome their loop.

And yes I did just mispell Sartre multiple times. Fuck you I'm a burger, kiss my ass.

Hold true for me as well. The first thing I thought the next day after finishing Automata was that it had its flaws but I couldn't care less for them while playing it. Maybe I'm just overthinking shit but I like to imagine how perfect this game could have been if it had a bigger budget.

Will we get DLC that doesn't suck?

What are your problems with gameplay? I thought it;s very fluid and combat never got old for me.

My problem with 9S was that it's kinda hard to aim hacking on hard when the game decides which enemy to aim at in your stead. Nothing to drop the game for though.

>>386173181
Pretty much every philosopher machine specifically mocks either the personal life or world view of that philosopher. It actually fits the narrative extremely well because N2 was trying to emulate the failure itself with all the little machine societies it kickstarted.
Beepy really fucked up by not staying on the planet for longer so he could share his vision of life and purpose to other machines instead of just granting them consciousness and fucking off.
