Automata is shit.

The gameplay is bland and repetitive. The map is empty and copy-pasted. The story is the same shit over and over, 'ai's have feelings???? So deeeeeeeeeeeep' and shitty japanese anime tropes and conversations. The sidequests are all fetch quests or shitty minigames. The soundtrack is good.

Is this just proof of weebs becoming such a massive part of the gaming demographic? Because I guarantee you, if there was no ass in it, and it had a western art-style, people would hate it. These are the same fucking people who are watching One Punch Man and pretending it has a deep, thought-provoking story and it's not just a shitty parody aimed at literal kids.

I'm so done with weebs. I want them to fuck off. This game is the physical embodiment of anime, in the worst possible way. It's hollow, creatively bankrupt, and pretends to be far more than it is.

it's evidence that fans of japanese games will eat up anything that has cute girls in it, even when they're forced to play as some dumb shota for the majority of the game, even when the game itself is derivative garbage that they've played 10 times over before

You're not wrong, but there are better examples of it. FFXIV being the one that comes to mind.

Nier at least tries some new stuff, even if it has a lot of really glaring flaws everywhere. FFXIV is just a shitty MMO that nobody would play if it didn't have the Final Fantasy name attached to it. It's one of the worst MMOs I've ever played. And I've played a lot of really bad MMOs.

>>387693943
It's the thirst for games with decent story telling. Sure it has it's flaws and is quirky and odd. But you know what? It doesn't fucking matter because the game and the story felt like it had vision and passion.

Too often the modern games come out with committee designed stories with shit just shoe horned in. The closer the games industry gets towards trying to be hollywood the shitter the stories will get.

Hence the resurgence in Indie games with a lick of passion and love on them. Hence the sudden popularity of games with no story or "make your own" aka PUBG etc.

There's a balance to be had but currently it's in the shit. Just look at what happened to fucking Bioware, to Bungie, etc etc. EA and Activision need to be disbanded because they are literally killing video games.

Award shows happen every year and if according to some people standards no good movie/music/game comes out that year doesn't mean they won't give awards obviously if there is no similar standard to compare to you can't just call something bad like, how are you saying something is bad are you using some kind of standard if there is what is it? that game is quite okay, the artstyle the gameplay, fanservice and a lot of other things. If you would have posted something story heavy like some final fantasy and visual novel style, bland game than your argument that weeb eat everything japanese would have suited. Like its been quite a time since we have gotten a good straight forward game with stylized combat. all big games have either shooting, platforming or cinematic combat and gameplay or lives on environment, atmosphere and exploring.
it was quite surprising and exciting to get a game like that after a long time when stylised combat even superficial was common
>>
You know why noone replies to the posts bashing Shitomata? Cus we all know they are stating truths, and cuck weebs are too busy autistic screeching to come with a proper debate. So sad...

>>387698396
You can. You will just miss some reference. Try yotube if you really want for DoD and Nier
>>
>>387693943
Thing is, if it was a western game it wouldn't have the themes, characters, or the Route-oriented gameplay it has.

It'd just be your standard boring trash with collectibles and a quest to save the world while playing a power fantasy.

So it's a unique game. You might have noticed that the same thing occurs in western RPGs (particularly cRPGs).
Deus Ex, Arcanum, Fallout and VtMB are text book examples of this. They are extremely unique - be it for side quests, their characters, or reactivity and setting.
>>
>>387698403
I have never even played the game but I am really hating all this contrarian behavior around it

>>387698396
The original Nier has a lot of gameplay issues fucking FISHING but otherwise it's got a good story. Like >>387698614 said it'd be easier to just watch a playthrough on youtube if you just want the backstory.

>>
>>387699264
>/v/ is one person

I've explained this before, and I'll explain it again. The reason this happens is due to mostly contrarianism due to popularity, like how Hollow Knight was beloved and had great threads and now everyone thinks your a shill if you like it, and also because when people are done enjoying a game, they stop talking about it, leaving only assblasted shitposters like OP to spam these bait threads. If you go on any other part of the board, then general opinion is very favorable.

State of the art cutting edge technology androids looking like cute girls dressed in 19 century outfit complete with skirt and heels armed with giant swords created to combat evil robots. You can't go more weeb shit with setting than that. It is a man's disgrace to post this game with a picture of Blade Runner like they are even remotely comparable.

You know what's weeb but not shit and is comparable to Blade Runner? Ghost in the Shell from 1995. That movie is something else. Why can't we have proper weeb settings in video games?
