i seriously wish some art/philo ppl take a look at what automata is; it basically summarizes all of western philosophy up to postmodernism in the context of a crazy video game i've been reconsidering stuff i've read from beauvoir, sartre, nietzsche, hegel etc. there's SO MUCH. i've never looked at transhumanism, existentialism, suicide, theology, feminism, gender, art, and so many others the same way after it. it's such a liberating game: people have especially been praising the representation of sexuality in the game with the operator characters. i think everyone can play this game and see something that reflects them, touches them, makes them feel more involved than many works of art

it might sound ridiculous reading these tweets and you might go "so you're going to say that NieR: Automata is the most important artwork "that represents us in today's postmodernist times and go beyond even the concet of literature". yep, that's what i'm saying.

NieR: Automata is the despair of everything -- the totality of everything wrong with society -- that inspires people to hope in the end. there may be trouble in understanding gender, sexuality, politics, technology etc. but we can shoulder the weight of the world together. it's a plea to strive together in the midst of this despair so nobody will have regrets; i cannot stress how important it is as a reflection. it may be the most antihumanist story to reveal how much contradictions we have as human beings and yet it reminds us we're humans we're bags of shit and the game examines that; that's why we need each other after this realization to find a better future. even if the eternal recurrence is real & we are trapped in the same narrative/social construction of reality to the point it's meaningless, striving for a better future because of our completionist attitudes is the only thing we can do and we'll have no regrets from this.

Real talk though: What is the timeframe we are talking with Automata? Like does it take place over days? Weeks?

Every time I think this game has shown me all it can I discover something new.

The fact you can hack enemies, create small robot armies under your control whilst also having the ability to use an enemy's entire moveset all the way from a stubby to a goddamn drill-snake.

And this is just...in the game. It's just there. Like the fact I can jump into a quadraped robot and run around the map at my leisure is just normal and to be expected, no biggie.

This game is next fucking level, christ almighty.

So I noticed there's someone kneeling on the broken overpass in the tower area, but when you actually get there there's no one there anymore.

I've tried it multiple times, and that kneeling person is always there when I run along the overpass from the crater side towards the tower side.
This is on route C as 9S.
Is this a bug or am I missing something?

I have a lot of questions but some I'd appreciate help with are

1) it is stated that 9S is a high end model. Are all [S]canner model high end or just him ? Is he the only S model to learn the truth ?
2) since 2B killed 9S in different occasions, does she know the truth behind Yorha as well? Or is she just given the order and proceeds to execute him, no questions asked ?
3) do we know how many times the cycle of the bunker's backdoor opening repeated before the Automata story line ? Is this the first one?

2B is not very smart.
That depends on how many generations of YoRHa there were between the prototypes at Pearl Harbor and Automata's story, assuming the A series was prototypes for all of YoRHa and not just one generation. I think it's about 200 years before, and 9S and 2B were manufactured only three years prior to Automata. [/spoiler]

Just a theory. From 21O's unit data we learn that you can switch models and you keep your number probably because number=personality, as she joined the offensive in route C as 21B. We also see 4B shot down in the prologue and find a 4S in route C.

I remember Two being real tedious and upsetting, because you had to kill the Homunculus each time and her screams and such really stick in your head. What's your favourite, anon?

For me the door usually opens after the e-mail where Emil tells you about the fish. He sends you that every time in a new route, and I assume also for chapter select.

I can't be the only person here who absolutely hates the hacking minigame, can I? Maybe it's because I don't play twinstick shooters, but the controls just feel way too loose for something that requires such precision.

I'm on my third playthrough right now, and I'm playing as 9S going through those giant towers. First one was fine, just an enemy gauntlet. But this second tower is driving me fucking crazy, it's literally nothing but chests you have to hack. There aren't even any save spots inside these damn towers, so I can't just quick save and quit the game to take a break. I don't really have many other major gripes with the game, most of the flaws are minimal. But this hacking shit is really beginning to annoy me.

Drakengard in the style of Cuil theory.

Spoilers abound.

You ask me to save your sister. I give you a Dragon. You hate the Dragon, the dragon hates you. I give you a Dragon. You take the Dragon and murder thousands. A man kills his friends in a forest. The knife cuts through them like butter, but when the blade reaches his own thoat his limbs fall weak like the wet bun of a greasy hamburger. I give him a fairy. The fairy gives him a knife. A Dragon sleeps restlessly in the desert as thousands of elves meet their untimely demise at the hands of a cult. I give you a Dragon. The Dragon soars through the skies and burns your enimes. The elves are dead. You sister's fiance sings a song that fails to make her simle, inside he dies, never to feel again. The petrified dragon cries out in agony as you murder hundreds of child soldiers. I give you a dragon. You are in the desert now, searching for a way to save your sister. The man and the fairy are with you. The Man is blind. I give you a Dragon. There is a monk with you now. I give you a Dragon. You are raiding a prison camps, destroying the enemy, a moan rings out, the moan of a broken girl cursed to continue living in her shell of a body as her mind continues to destroy itself. She has a pretty Dress. The girl attemps to force herself upon but is held fast by the priest and the man. I give you a Dragon. Somewhere, a twin cries out in agony as her mother beats her again.

You soar across the sky. I give you a Dragon. You have rescued a child. Your merry band complete, you rush forward to save your sister, and murder her husband. I give him a Dragon. I give you a Dragon. You are locked in mortal combat with the fiance. His eyes burn crimson as hatred fills his viens, reminded only of his failings as a lover. His Dragon gives you a Dragon. It is beaten within an inch of it's life. You fly to the capital. Stone children rain from the sky. I give you a Dragon. The children do not stop their descent and your friends are overwhelmed by their numbers. The are hungry. I give you a Dragon. You watch as the children devour your friends, who have ought you enough time to enter the main building. I give you a Dragon. You murder the child who was beaten by her mother. As she dies she sings a cheerful song in a man's voice. I give you a Dragon. The child's corpse rised through the cieling, growing larger and larger. I give you a Dragon. You kill the child again. An extremely large stone child falls from the sky crushing a large portion of the city. You rush to meet it in combat but your blows land without purchase. I give you a Dragon. The rest of your friends sacrifice themselves as you prepare to face the stone child. I give you a Dragon. You are falling with the stone child through a portal. I give you a dragon. You are in Tokyo, Japan. The year is 1998. The city looks on at your battle. I give you a Dragon. You engage the creature in a mortal battle of Dance, Dance Revolution. You dance harder. I give you a Dragon. The beast descends breaking up into perfect particles and disspating into the atmosphere. An F-16 fighter streaks by. Seconds later you are engulfed in the flames of a missile strike. I give you a Dragon. You fall from the air, like a hamburger dropped by an american. I give you a Dragon. The dragon is impaled on top of the Tokyo Trade Building, streaking the skyline red.

Not exactly. If it's lost helping someone then that person's save data is removed from the pool from which help is drawn and cannot go on to help someone else. If you're feeling particularly malicious, you can sit in the credits removing as many peoples' save data from the pool as possible.

>>171722768
There's some hacking levels I can't stand, with others I have no problems. The one with the red boxes in the tower in route C was an utter nightmare, thank god the game basically just hands you the win if you fail often enough.

I though the hacking stuff was a nice change of pace at the beginning, but the game really didn't know when to let go of that gimmick. But I guess that was kind of the point of that tower.

That's the one I'm stuck on right now.

Actually, on the same topic, I hate the shmup segments when you're in gestalt mode too. It has the same loose, imprecise feeling as the hacking. But at least those sections are easy to spam, you can dodge things more easily, and you can regenerate fucking health.

>>171723815
No, this is.
>>
>>171723815
Yeah. Absolutely beautiful build-up to the fight as well and had the perfect length.


Both Ro-Shi and Ko-Shi single and double fights got my excited as well, but boy that one dragged on.

>>171723714
In my defense, I meant client-side.
That player wasn't going to see that save again,
That is, unless they backed it up, which they may as well do.

There's also dummy data in the pool so that the people that were there first could win. Those specific ones that you got killed are gone forever now though

Warp to the City Ruins Near Factory. If you're ever going to get him to spawn there, that's where you'd warp to or start and reload from.

Well it turns out Chapter Select makes him stick to the desert route and frequently forgets his dialogue so you have to go through the whole Emil mask theft speil all over again.

The Watcher tattoo and Logic/Red Eye virus could be alluding to how watchers still have influence in Nier's world, or that the machines absorbed data on the legion and ended up shaping themselves after it somehow.

But I think N2 would need either red eyes or blonde hair for me to see her as a direct reference to Manah.

Half those corpses are dead players though, I thought they all died because they sucked. I don't even remember the last time I died in actual combat, the only times it happens to me are in those shitty hacking sequences.

Literally all I do is hold down R1 for a constant stream of fire, continually mash R2 so I'll dodge 95% of things, and then run in every now and then for some melee damage. Just put on some chips that increase your Pod's damage and your evade range, then whatever the hell else you want. I can't imagine anyone dying to that boss, or any other boss for that matter. Maybe on hard mode, but normal? Come on.

1. When and how did 2B's and A2's memories merge?
2. Wouldn't that have fucked up A2 from that point on?

Though it really does help me understand endings C and D, because I guess she IS 2B at that point.
>>
>>171729286
>"Jackass was it?"
Yeah, I think they recognize her, but it's implied to have been a while since they've seen her.
>>
>>171729403
No, shes A2 the whole time. Its just that YorHa units store memories in their weapons so when 2B gives A2 her sword, A2 can now see what 2B saw and felt and experienced.
>>
>>171727989
The ending kinda lost me on a lot of points tbqhwy. Like, who was actually controlling everything? The machines?
>>
>>171729403
1) 2B transfers/copies her memories into her sword & A2 receives them when she receives the sword

2) Memories are different from system data or whatever, so the virus wasn't passed on? I'm just assuming here.
>>
>>171729403
I assume they merged when A2 took 2B's sword and Pod. She did state "these are my memories" or something to that effect, and considering 2B was infected, that probably made her memories merge with A2 instead of just being stored as separate data.

As for whether or not it would have fucked her up...well, she's already kinda fucked up in the head to begin with. But maybe it didn't mess with A2 because she's an earlier model.

>>
>>171729537
N2 pretty much

still not sure who created yorha though, the whole black box file makes me doubt the machines were responsible
>>
>>171729403
1.When she took her sword as she was being taken over by the virus, she did it as a last resort so A2 would have all the information she needed in order to grant her final wish.

2. No, it just bugs her a little after the desert battle purely due to the last resort hacking attempt. All it does is let A2 know everything 2B knew as to become more efficient in protecting 9S. Also she's obviously still A2, she cut her hand using her sword to show she was accepting 2B's wish

so what does yorha mean anyway, i thought the name had meanings and crucial to the plot but guess not?

Wait, no

I'm actually disappointed that nobody talked about how the Tower is like a branded product/service with all those messages that you hear when you approach the Tower and the Resource Units.
I intentionally hung around for spoilers,
but I was thrown completely off guard when I first tried interacting with the Tower as 9s because listening to you fucks lead me to assume that it was mostly robo-Tower of Kagutsuchi.


It was a bit of levity that left me a bit unsettled.
>>
>>171729537
Unseen higher-up androids hid the truth about humanity's extinction for the sake of morale and made Yorha, designing it to evolve through a cycle of endless sacrifice and data-collection in order to keep building better units and win the war.

The machine network followed their initial directive to fight the enemy by going out of their way to keep the war at a stalemate so they could continue to have someone to fight. All the while they evolved as well and began to move beyond their original directive.

Whoever initiated the Yorha program to begin with. The ayys were made up just like "muh surviving humans." It's all a really fucking cruel way to find a suitable replacement for the human species by having two separate species (androids and machines) duke it out for centuries until both reach peak evolution then consume each other for the ultimate gestalt.

It's basically repeating the same shit that happened with the Gestalts and Replicants, only for even less of a good reason this time.

The main problem is that "Passing" is such a vague term to translate. Like, is it an adjective of a temporary state, or is it a literal verb of falling under gravity?

And I couldn't find any phonetic kanji reference- which does mean that a good weeb or Nihongi might be familiar enough to recognize kanji phonetically. I don't know.

I'm not saying they were fictional, I'm saying them actually being conquerors from other worlds was made up. Yorha probably engineered some weirdass creatures, made them really dumb so the machines could easily take over, and then let the whole thing play out.

>>171730268
Digesting androids. Didn't you read any of the damn info provided to you? The androids' core is made up of the exact same thing the machines' is. They're two sides of the same coin, and the machines are meant to assimilate the androids once both parties have reached peak efficiency.

Yeah, I guess sacrificing the bunker itself is less about data collection, and more about cleaning up lose ends regarding those that know about humanity's extinction, including the commander.

It's odd that the bunker and all of its resources are expendable enough that they can just burn it all. But I guess the pre-programmed backdoor leaves little leeway for other variables.

Yeah, I found it already by looking the stuff up. There's that weapon at the flooded coast too that requires the scanner.

>>171731126

The entire reason that the androids have been fighting and dying for thousands of years is based on a lie, and despite their sentience, they're all completely expendable in the name of military secrets and weapon advancement.

Yorha is already shady without another conspiracy on top of everything else.
>>
>>171728290
That is exactly what happened to me, multiple fucking times.

First I had the game set to hard because the trash was becoming too easy and the boss one-shot me.
Then I went through it on normal and my game crashed as I was going to the next tower.
Then I had an awful time with the hacking chests before finally beating him on hard just just vengeance.

I actually enjoy the hacking minigame but holy shit the ones in that tower were a pain in the ass.

If the war wasn't over I guess they would have uploaded data to a new line of combat units at a different bunker and continued the fighting.

But since the war is maybe probably over, I guess it's an awkward transition stage of telling everyone that humanity's gone. Which they can't gloss over, since Jackass apparently already spread around the info that said that they had been lying the whole time.

Automata had limited budget due to little expected profit, and most of said budget probably went on thousands of hours modelling a literally perfect ass.

Now that it outsold all previous games and is blowing up all the charts even in the west it may well get some more funding.

They have other bunkers, and they NEED to regularly launch "supplies" to the moon.

There's literally nothing stopping them from launching materials and tools into space and having androids build a new bunker when they need it. It's not like they need space suits.

Additionally, processed steel is readily available. Just gather scrap from literally ANYWHERE.

Because it still takes time and resources to build a high-tech space station in the middle of a war?

We didn't even know that there was another bunker until we read the archive data on it. But I guess Yorha HQ does most of its work behind the scenes.

Winning the war isn't the objective, not yet anyway.

the androids have no interest in prolonging the war, the whole lie about mankind is about rallying the troups and strenghtening their resolve in the first place.

They made it very clear that Emil Clones were being killed and they made it a point that they were biologically immortal so it's very probable that the war has started again.

So I am confused about something. At the end of A/B, 9S is in the Machine network right? But no mention of how he gets out by the start of C. Is this because 2E kills him again and they restore him without the memories of Humanity being extinct?

Do they clarify how many times 2E has killed 9S? They only show twice, but it seems to be implied that it has happened a bunch.

I feel like I lost the plot completely during the tower.

>>171734262
he just moved his conciousness inside a machine since he happened to have an opening within the machine network due to his hacking into it earlier on, they probably just teleported it to another body after that like they did through the whole game.
Anyway it's at least 3 times since she also kills him in one of the novellas but we have no 100% sure number

6O is a flame that burns intense. There's always risk of it dying out, and if not, the sheer intensity can start to be a bother.

21O is a flame that burns just as intense, with strong desires of gratitude and a wish for a future together. And yet, 21O herself insists to hide that away from the person she loved the most, even if it hurts her.

To give you the benefit of the doubt, real life doesn't have a clear narrative focus, where you get to see someone's meaningful and dramatic stories.

It's very easy to empathize with a fictional character precisely because you know what their story is and you have a surprisingly intimate look at who they are.

That is an incredibly rare privilege in real life.

I can certainly understand the cruelty behind it, but at the same time, they have every aspect humans do. They're basically James Cameron type Terminators, with flesh over cybernetic bits inside. And considering they try to mimic humans as much as possible in their design, why not genitalia? Yes, the corpses are lacking in that feature, but that could just be because Taro didn't want an X rating. Or possibly since they're extraneous bits, they degrade the fastest when an android dies.

Did he use Overclock?? Because that shits fun. I think you have to set up your chips, along with your weapons, for what kind of style you want to play. I was happy with my setup halfway through playthrough 1. I have Ancient Overlord and Virtuous Contact ill spam light and heavy attacks to get this fast combo going on, I have my pod on Mirage so ill evade to active Overclock before unleashing Mirage. Thats just what I found fun and effective.

That quest makes the enemies artificially harder, anyway. I was a higher level than them and they still tore through the parade faster than I could kill them all. Same goes for that stupid kid you have to escort back to his mom.

I'm convinced the only reason Taro even put those damn missions in the game was to fuck with completionists.

Fucking machine kid. The enemies were lower level than me but had bullshit health anyways. The only really hard encounter is the second to last, and the only time he actually died was during the last one where I was beating up the knife guy and turned around to see him get hit by like 10 balls at once.

Like I said, I'm pretty sure he included those two escort missions to fuck with players. Everything else (except maybe Emil) is possible to get through at a fairly low level, so long as you've got a chip set and play style that suits you. Even the bullet-sponges are doable, if you have the patience. The only enemies that are legitimately cheap are the ones on the escort missions.

You can tell that raised bit is still just the same piece of fabric though, so there's nothing of any importance there. The filters are removed so her underwear is less obvious, but it's still there. But her underwear is totally riding up on her and sliding to one side and up her pussy. It's probably really uncomfortable too.

That being said, it's pretty fucking clear from all these screenshots that androids DO have genitalia. They didn't just model a cameltoe by accident.

I accidentally skipped the scene
What's the deal with the baby robot?

Is it the last part of the king that worked?
Or is it king's baby?
What is it at all?

400 years pass by and they wonder why baby king doesn't grow up

then one of them says
>sure is a cutie though

>>171740616

Imagine being the baby king stuck in that helpless body for four hundred years.
>>
>>171740687
I think that's one of the implication of the situation

but they're too dumb to figure that out

Is there anything I should know going into a hard/very hard playthrough? Like any weapon combos that can keep enemies in the air or disabled for an extended period of time.

Im really just dreading any fight with a Yorha unit.

I hate this game and the people that play it. It's so obvious that people are only playing it because of yoko taros sex appeal. Even the creator said he only designed yoko taro like that because he "likes girls".
Maybe if he really liked girls he wouldn't hyper sexualize her like that

Not sure why you went in thinking the story would be better.
Not like Drakengard 3's writing was anything to get excited over.

Taro wasn't the reason Nier was good. Cavia lost one of their best writers during the collapse and Taro doesn't know the meaning of subtlety.

I personally prefer dod1 and dod3 over nier and automata. The story telling is less polished but honestly it's just more unique and interesting

I find the setting more interesting than the writing, but I can see where you're coming from.

Fair enough, roughly how close am I to the end of the game if I've just passed the white copy city? I've felt overpowered for most of the game but don't feel like I've progressed much story honestly.

Dont confused the noobs, [A] is not even an ENDING, but prologue.
If you tell people they have beaten the game they might think that was itwhile the real story is after [B]
>>
>>171741870
yeah dod settings and how it carries over to niers are more interesting than the individual stories of the latter, I agree

The big plaza just before the bridge to the forest castle, where the shortcut gate to Pascal's village is. You need to do a bunch of platforming from pillar to pillar.

I have one question about the end part of Automata. Why did they both climb the tower to the top? I understood that 9S just wanted everything to burn but what about A2? Knowing that the red girls were dead at that point it kinda seemed odd to me. Maybe I missed something?

I think the biggest tragedy in this game is that the cutest girl in the game is going to be overshadowed for the majority of people by a robot with a bucket on its head.

The second biggest tragedy is that she probably wanted die by the hands of 9S but couldn't be granted even that.
