Has there been a more destructive cast of "heroes" than the mass murderers of Chrono Trigger?
>>387220994
Nier 1's MC dooms humanity just by trying to save his daughter and a woman who fell for him ignores the fact he commences genocide despite understanding what's truly goes on.
>>387221215
To be fair, the real reason he does is because he doesn't know that Shades are the real humans.
>>387221291
Yes, but Kaine can actually understand their language and she does nothing to stop him.
Which is still understandable, but they still commence the genocide.
>>387221370
Either way, aliens showed up and lost a war to a species that was extinct.
No we have robots running around that are trying to become more and more human. I hope it goes well for them.
>>387220489
What are some games where the final boss is really disappointed in your thread?
>>387221370
>Kaine can actually understand their language and she does nothing to stop him
>Which is still understandable
>>387221603
dont forget they are cleansed of their "original sin" programming that they constantly go on about and their desire to fight and kill. At least the ones on the Ark anyway are, the rest on the planet will probably fight to their deaths or shut off at some point.
>>387221723
Well she fell for him so hard she was ready to throw her life away just to remember him in Lost World, so yes, her behaviour is understandable, she's ready to go to hell for him.
>>387221749
According to timeline machines and androids signed a peace treaty and the only conflict in next 500 years is inside the machine community itself because they adopted caste system with nobles which understandably didn't make all machines happy.
>>387221914
>need an enemy
>employs feudalism
>constant "war" with each other
makes about as much sense as anything else
>final boss is the personification of all your self-hatred and lingering doubts over whether or not you did the "right" thing (female)
>>387221845
I always forget that she likes him
>>387222039
Not "constant", timeline mentions the only internal division and it's likely not a result of a desire for conflict. They just became too human, up to adopting bad traits of human societies.
>>387221215
Humanity was already doomed because Devola and Popola never started the merging process with the gestalts and replicants. Nier contributed by killing the shadowlord but everything is their fault.
>>387221749
Never expected a good ending from Taro.
>>387222146
They nearly kiss once, he kisses her in ending C and overall even through her rough as fuck demeanour caused by awful life you can see how much she values him. That moment when Nier is mentally broken and she beats the shit out of him to make him stop being an emotional wreck was adorable.
It just doesn't work with father Nier as well as with brother Nier.
>>387220298
>final boss is the final boss
>>387220298
>final boss can erase your stats
>>387222260
First Nier was planned to have a good ending for main characters too, it was just cut out from the game.
In Automata it's just thematic as it goes together with the theme of refusing to follow the pre-determined narrative.
>>387222238
Project Gestalt was never going to work in the first place. The moment the queen and Cain/Angelus fell unto Tokyo, regular humanity was already dead.
>>387222168
but drakengard's whole shtick that gets continued in nier and automata, is that humans are full of hate and desire conflict. It's not really a coincidence its the thing that makes adam turn himself mortal, and its not a coincidence that 9S becomes crazy when he becomes mortal. If the machines really DO want to be human then conflict will be in their nature.
>>387222451
>is that humans are full of hate and desire conflict
That is exactly the narrative you're denying in ending E of Automata.
If you missed it, last big names during credit shmup shoot bullets in Flower's pattern.
>>387222441
what, why? the whole thing only went to shit when replicants suddenly came to life
>final boss is eating your memories of the adventures you had along the way
>>387222593
The Ark is obviously the exception, not the rule. The lifeforms on it are free of the sin of the machines and can go somewhere else and go beyond humanity's hatred and desire for conflict. Maybe it will work out for them but it probably won't with 9S on board.
The rest of the machine lifeforms however are pretty much doomed to live in cycles and have their "sin" programming still in them, if anything can come of that though will be interesting.

Is this thing actually fun or just style over substance. (Superior art direction that fails to tell what the fuck happened)
>>387223186
It's a legitimately entertaining series. The action is pretty to look at and the humor is rather good as well.
>>387222142
I want to pat her head
>>387220380
Spiderman edge of time
>>387223186
it's style with substance. great, likeable characters with tons of development and bantz. the art direction is mostly to cover the fact 90% of it is talking.
course it's also kinda divisive, the art rubs some people the wrong way. and it's really fucking japanese. hope you like mythology and shintoism and shitty puns based on both.
it also basically finished today, so no better time to marathon it.
>>387223186
Honestly it is hit or miss. Each story arc is 2-4 episodes long, and they vary wildly in quality. Some are just fanservice with really stylistic art direction. Some are mindblowing or heartfelt stories. Some are boring and drag on. Others are weird and super experimental. The good thing is that if you don't like a story arc, it only takes 3 or 4 episodes at most for something new.
The girls are consistently hot though, so if you like attractive anime tiddy, then this is a show for you.
>>387221845
There's also the fact that her grandmother was killed by that giant Shade that likes to use hallucinations and deception in it's battle tactics, so it's possible that Kaine thought that the other Shades were also merely pretending to be sympathetic.
>>387223386
It also has best girl

how the fuck am I supposed to jack off to this

Sisters are for hugs and headpats (and the occasional brushing of teeth), not sweaty tomboy sex like monkey.

so how would a monogatari game work anyway?

FF11: Wings of the Goddess. It's the main character of that expansion rather than you (though evil you shows up too) but it's the same principle.
>a likeable character goes through hell
>a girl who could change his opinion about the world is killed in the most humiliating way

There's only like two cases of this happening i can remember in vidya but both of them were really powerful.

Isn't that basically the point of the mainline SMT series?
Yaweh became the Supreme Being by kicking out whoever it was before him, created a bunch of shit but didn't have a Goddess for companionship so went crazy.

Could be a fighting game
Most characters has some way of fighting
>>387225195
He was never killed in manga as well so i consider "time constraints" just an excuse. Getting away fits the narrative perfectly, you either save everyone with Ryu or destroy everything with Fou-lu for him to start over and built a new peaceful empire.
