/ndg/ Nier/Drakengard General #6

9S is the final boss of DoD4.

>>171243246
No, Tactical Support Unit 042 is.
You get to play as the credit sequence.

I miss back when I still enjoyed Megami Tensei games.

>>171242978
2Bs feelings towards 9S are fairly sad, but I honestly don't care much for 9S' feelings towards 2B. Somehow that sours it a bit for me.

I dunno what I just did, I kind of fondled the controller in a funny way and this little pop up menu appeared with the pod and its equipped pod program on it, but then it went away the instant I changed my hand position and I have no idea how I did it

>>171244296
Probaly just all those things. Denuvo is involved so take that as you will.

>>171244436
Do you mean the menu that pops up when you press the left side of the touch pad?

>>171244436
Click the left side of the pad.

Are there any scans of the artbook yet? I want to see the N2 art in a real quality

>>171244436
You hit the left side of the touch pad.

On top of the building you first drop into the city ruins next to, the one that gets partially destroyed during the Engels fight. You gotta climb up the elevator shaft to the roof. Also I think they only show up after you get to the point where you can choose a character to play as in route C.

Go talk to Emil first, every time you do chapter select it resets that flag, you have to go chat with him and make sure he tells you where he lives

I wish. I just grabbed it from a thread the other day.

This game makes me want to cry when I kill one of the multi-tier stubbies and they're reduced to just a top half and bottom half, the top slightly misaligned with the bottom and all they can do is just sit there in agony, staring at me without being able to express their emotions

But they're the only good way to farm stretched coils and warped wires...

This is Japan, you know they have shit taste when making doujins. There will be one cute vanilla one that won't ever get scanned and 50 others that do get scanned that are NTR.

>>171251817
Probably because 1) they needed everyone to be a standard height or close to it for the sake of the body storage and transporter systems, and 2) a little extra height didn't really offer that many advantages anyway when they're powerful androids so might as well make them a bit more compact

How will there be any when they have no genitals? Will the sex consist of purely intense kissing and dry humping?

>>171252295

I'm willing to bet there was going to be a lot more A2 content including the Pearl Harbor mission fully playable, but they had to cut it for time and budget reasons. Maybe they can add some of it back in with DLC, but Taro said he hadn't been given the budget to do anything as extreme as story DLC.

I think it's Taro's best selling game yet. 200k in Japan alone if I recall correctly. With worldwide sales, I could see it possibly hitting 1m eventually. Hopefully the sales will bring DLC and get Taro a bigger budget for his next game.

Wait, so sacrificing your save doesn't actually contribute to helping another player finish the ending? You're just replacing "Such and such developer name" data with "ledickbutt69xD" data?

>>171254163

If you're completely offline and never connected to the network even once during your playthrough, then you can just keep retrying until the difficulty of the credits actually lowers to let you win anyways.

>>171252832
The way he talked about it was his usual everything is shit way of talking. He even specifically said that SE didn't want him talking about the locked doors. 200k sales in Japan alone is really really good, and it is pretty popular in the west too so I would say it is a hit, making them a lot of money. Plus the producer, Saito, wants to do DLC, so it is almost certainly coming eventually.

>>171251369
2B technically already gets NTR'd in the game by 9S being curious. Just how heartbroken would be be if she could never find him again?

I did connect during my playthrough, I just happened to temporarily be unable to do so whenever I was initially attempting to get ending E. All that happened to me was the game kept prompting me to go online when I died, which of course I couldn't. There were no dev messages or anything either. It could be that it would have gotten easier if I kept trying though, I didn't feel like fucking around with it any longer.

So, has anyone read Yoko Taro's manga series, "Thou Shalt Not Die"?

>In the future, supernatural powers not only exist but have become science fact. The “Special Abilities Private High School” is established in order to utilize students’ powers for the military. Students are roped onto the battlefield without knowing the meaning of the fight, whether it will save their lives… or spell their demise.

>>171254824
Fucking forever, it has massive HP and defense

What I suggest you do instead is

>Hack and remote control the first clown you see
>Walk it to the square and hack one of the medium bipeds with the gun
>Use it to kill all the other enemies in the area

You can't target the statue for hacking unless you're controlling a machine, and it seems that you also can't target it if you don't kill every single one of the other machines in that plaza

When I saw it for the very first time, I immediately thought "this is going to turn out to be a parallel to the game's story, isn't it?", but having finished everything, it never really seemed too relevant.

I imagine that what we heard from him was probably the extent of what he knew. He was already repeating the same handful of phrases by the end of the quest.

Though the fact that he rejected all the gifts and went on some journey to find himself in the end probably means that he genuinely thought of himself as a scholar of sorts.

They seem to spawn indefinitely, but you'd be surprised at which enemies actually don't spawn indefinitely.

If you're comfortable with combat and/or high enough level, you can see if you can clear out enemies at the end of route A. I played around with it, and eventually they stopped air-dropping more goliaths in that particular spawn point, but I lost interest in seeing if I could clear out the whole city ruins. Maybe later when I'm grinding for a secret boss, I can come back and see if they all actually stop spawning or not.

What kind of future are 2B, 9S, and A2 going to make? N2 is still at large and will never be beat, humanity is extinct, YoRHa is dead. How long will shallow optimism and appreciation of past human relics and customs last until the existential crisis sets in with an even greater effect?

Caim and 9S are locked in a basement with no way out
They must work together to find a weakness in the ceiling and burrow their way out
Who murders first?

>>171259668
I just hope 2B and 9S get to finally be honest with each other and be truly happy for a while, they deserve it

>>171259738
Caim. Why is this even a question?

>>171259668
>YoRHa is dead
lolno, YoRHa gen 3 is already finished and about to be launched when 2B died
Sequel or DLC will involve them somehow

>>171259668
Just wait for the sequel where the main cast gets transported into the DoD verse through Taro's fuckery.

Jackass recovered all of the data from the tower through salvage and learned the truth, as you can read in the archive. She knows that the people behind YoRHa are bastards now, and probably made the information widespread, so another YoRHa would be rather ineffective.

I just finished the game and gGod dam this game is fucking brutal. I think I consider it to be even more brutal than A Song of Ice and Fire.

>>171259846
That could be interesting.

By the way how do I do spoilers?

The immediate threat is over with N2 tearing itself apart, the pods move to repair duty to salvage whoever they can, some straggling machine survivors might be able to make good with the Resistance again (assuming Jackass doesn't go aggro on everything she sees), 2B and company are free of Yorha, but there's apparently another bunker out there with new units ready to be prepped.

It'll still be a rocky transition, but I think everyone earned a breather, however long or short it may last.

>>171260208
Yeah, and YoRHa3.0 becomes the new enemies.
Plot Twist: they're imbued with the copies of data saved from the Replicants and Gestalts, so they're technically more human than everyone else

I could see this, but their purpose would have to be different seeing as everyone would have already seen the evidence, which is rather irrefutable, of what the android council, or whatever, were doing all along with the old YoRHa. Plus I would think that the new YoRHa would find out due to how widespread the information is now and need to be being controlled somehow. Otherwise why would they help the ones who are probably going to do the same thing to them as they did to our YoRHa at some point?

Literal chills. I wanted more fuckery with the loading screens after the Bunker was destroyed though. Or a different one for A2 since she's an older model.

She was going to mount him right there if the beeps didn't start. It was meant to show her lust for him since she had fallen for her target.
