Probably nothing. It was 042 that put the sand in there while she was knocked out. It was so she would go and talk to the Resistance to find help, but the Pod network already knew Resistance members don't have the required part and she would then have to go and make friends with Pascal. Did you notice how overly eager 042 is to twist A2's words regarding her feelings towards Pascal/the machines? They probably arranged Pascal getting ganked next to the Resistance camp too. Too bad they fucked up and Ending Z is canon, lmao get fucked Albert Wesker.

Hey I just played Drakengard 1 as my Automato homework and started on Drakengard 2, but it seems boring as fuck right away.

Does it get better later or should I skip to Drakengard 3? I'm kinda interested in what happens to Caim and Angalus but Now and the blue knights seem like boring assholes.

You don't miss anything when choosing one over the other since the character you don't choose doesn't go anywhere till you choose them (If that makes sense). The only choice that does matter will be fairly obvious and it's right at the very end of the game

>>172990074
Yoshimune Kouki's writing works in such a way that most things are telegraphed a mile off and you're pretty damn sure you know exactly what's coming, and when it arrives it is actually basically what you expected. But it still hits you anyways.

I think Yoko Taro's writing doesn't work the same way. Overall I think I enjoyed N:A's story more than MLA's, but it's exponentially weaker with spoilers.

It's probably extremely cliche at this point but Ghost in the Shell is one of my long time favorites. It touches on some similar issues (death of self, machine sapience, hacking and memory alteration) not to mention it has an absolutely lovely tone, beautiful visuals, and beautiful music.
>>
>>172992147
You'll end up watching Lain but just remember that I tried to tell you not to.

Steins;Gate Ghost in the Shell are good by any metric. Texhnolyze and Ergo you may like or hate but they're on a similar vibe. Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust has a lot of the same melancholic feeling and takes place in a most barren and desolate future that's also occasionally vibrant and full of futurey shit (and my favorite of anything I've recommended here).

For example disabling power in the whole factory.

>and there's only a timestop when you're playing as 9S
Sometimes 9S says he is hacking in. He's pressing triangle/Y at that time. Actual hack takes nanoseconds and that's why 2B doesn't even notice it. If you think time should stop for 2B when 9S is hacking something something you're retarded.
By the way if you get hacked during opera fight as 2B time stops too. So it's not only 9S.
>>
Think of it this way.
the actual hacking happens when you're holding triangle and filling up the meter, the minigame you play while time is stopped is only there to determine if you succeed or fail.
It's simply a skill check.
>>
>>172992997

You should be happy that you're unique at least in something even if it's in retardness.

During route A all his hacks (aside certain unique hacks like factory power) were instant. But actually getting into hacking sequence takes time both in route A (he usually asks 2B to wait) and route B (pressing and holding the fucking triangle/Y).
>>
Im pretty sure 9S doesn't stop time while hacking.
It took a while to hack Eve.
The hack is happening during the white circle then you play the minigame which is a gameplay mechanics but it's what happens during the white circle
>>
>>172996569
The most simple one is time is only paused when you're playing as 9S because it's a video game you piece of shit.

Huh.

I'm a huge pleb when it comes to anime and I've only watched surface level stuff (I really like NGE) but I'm definitely going to give Ghost in the Shell a try. I seem to remember seeing either a film or a few episodes millions on years ago, and it's got obvious connections to a lot of modern sci-fi stuff, including Nier Automata. I need to make myself watch it at some point.

I think people are actually looking for some kind of suffering/attrition/pain because for the average person there's so little of it in real life. Suffering is a necessary component of life, it gives you something to compare your joy to so you can determine it's value. An injection of that Automata melancholy makes happy moments all the better because you have some sadness to compare and contrast with.

What's wrong? I kinda agree with him. You can't truly enjoy joy without knowing despair

Really? Because I've seen some babies way too young to know despair be absolutely ecstatic over someone hiding their face behind their hands and then revealing it.

Less facetiously, it's a hard argument to really defend, because your only counterargument to someone that says they've experienced joy without knowing despair is that either they weren't truly joyful or they were despairing and didn't realize it. Either way you're trying to dictate what someone else's emotional state must be, and that's pretty tough to do convincingly.
>>
>>172998531
His assertion is that the average person is unconsciously seeking out sad media as a form of self mediation because they're not getting enough of it from other sources. That's absurd.

>>172998541
>Please do explain some specific objections though.
Haha uh oh, somebody's so confident in his position that he put on his big boy argument pants! Now I'm scared! Antidepressants are being prescribed at an unprecedented rate, social isolation is at an all time high, and political schisms have marred the whole of western society. If you seriously think that normal people are experiencing "so little suffering/attrition/pain" that they have to artificially supplement it for some kind of homeostasis then your head is so far up your ass that no logic can possibly penetrate it.

Not him, but rather than framing it in terms of a human need for contrasting emotional states, I'd be tempted to just say that it's like spicy food. Sometimes you are in the mood for spicy food, sometimes you aren't. There's not necessarily any greater meaning to it, and even if there is it might just be something simple, like
>Man, I haven't had any spicy food in a while, I could go for a chance of pace
or
>Man, I had spicy food yesterday and it was great, I'm going to go get some more
as opposed to
>Humans cannot taste/appreciate mild food without spicy food

Dash and run normally, top speed run uninterrupted is your max speed.

>>173001438
I dunno how the additional consideration of chips changes things, but speedrunners navigate terrain (even straightaways on flat ground) by dashing repeatedly, not by letting their character get up to top speed.

Then fuck me, but I always tried to do those races just dashing and failed, while usually got it each time doing the uninterrupted run.

>>173001858
I had a bitch of a time with the third race and ended up winning it by running at top speed, but I was using movespeed chips and there's also the question of whether I simply had a good skyscraper dismount at the beginning of the run.

I honestly don't know which is more appropriate for the race, just trying to provide additional facts.

That was probably the bunker or some place related to it. I doubt it'd be producing regular T-shirts.
Humans could've left some plans/designs lying around in the production line's database, but if the production androids/machines only follow what's established, they'll never be made.

I think all the main endings are happy endings of sort.
A/B: The main antagonists are defeated and 9S didn't have to die again.
C: 9S is saved. A2's character development is complete, she finds beauty in the world and she gets to be with her loved ones again, if you believe in that sort of thing.
D: N2 realizes the futility of the war and leaves the planet. 9S' character development is complete and he finds peace.
E: The pods become sentient and give the androids a second chance in this new, peaceful world.

Alternative was the first VN I read after really learning Japanese back in 2008 or so. It really fucked me up with post-reading/game depression for a long time, but I've learned that I have an attraction to tragic heroines and die, first Meiya and now 2B. Such is life, I guess.

I can't even bring myself to touch Automata again just yet, or even listen to the soundtrack. I keep browsing through SFW Pixiv stuff throughout the day, but otherwise I just get really emotional and tearing up when I try to do anything else. I feel dumb.

I feel like all of you should replay parts of the game where it takes longer to hack some enemies, like the tanks. Basically you take time to disable the security system by holding the hacking button, which takes time in realtime in game, much like waiting for a decryption program to run it's course irl. After that, time stops and the actual hack takes place in nano/milliseconds, because all the encryption is down.

In the few times you are given extended timers (>20s), 9S is failing and so you can assume his clock cycles are much lower. Thus, they're happening in close to real time.

The only other instance I can think of that breaks these rules is when you're hacking the YoHRa server, in which case, 9S' thoughts are his own thoughts, which can happen in milliseconds. When you look at a word, do you consciously say it? No, you gloss over it but absorb it in next to no time.

Shit didn't mean to quote.
>>
>>173028963
they directed nier to his journey, thanks to which weiss lost his memories, which made it impossible for him to rejoin noir until he was restored. joining of both was needed to begin the gestalt-replicant reunification. by the time he regained memories, he befriended nier, so he rejected noir, fucking up the reunification.

then nier went and killed his soul, which was the only source of uncorrupted maso for other gestalts/souls, and without it pretty much every gestalt went insane.

there are rumors of reunification working out somehow in other regions, but apparently it wasn't enough because 800 years later the remains of humanity went extinct.

no idea why. maybe the insane/relapsed gestalts made sure humanity was fucked, even after reuniting they were just left with groups of feral animals. or maybe replicants gaining their own souls before that made sure the reunification left every restored human with two minds battling for dominance, which could also lead them to insanity.

It's not uncommon for employees of a company to not know what other departments do, or in more extreme cases that they even have department x. Military generally doesn't have this as much, but these are highly specialist androids so it's not that hard to believe they only know what they need to know to carry out their own role.

Do you think Ending D of Nier is cannon, since nobody seems to remember him (the android population, and even Emil)?
>>
>>173040952
But why would he need to know? You'd know what a Type B or Type H just because they're inherently working with you as a team, but Es generally work alone. The E at the start would probably fuck off the moment they landed (possibly tracking 11B). Just because you work at a place doesn't mean you know every role existing there and what they do.

Also consider also the possibility that the knowledge is wiped out of him each time 2B bonks him.

It's also not even that far-fetched that despite 2B loudly reporting the downed unit as a Type E, she does so to her Operator. They don't use open channels, as you can see during Route B when 9S talk to 21) about upgraded flight units but 2B is completely ignorant to that conversation.
>>
>>173040952
>>173040786
>>173041282

Is it ever stated that other B types aren't aware? Aren't E-type specifically for taking out scanners who learn dangerous info, because scanners are the ones who tend to be smart enough to look too deep?

Are there any scanner units in the initial assault in the prologue? 9S was involved but not in the initial drop, and most likely wasn't part of the comms when 2B said "7E down." He didn't start remotely communicating with 2B over comms until after they met up in person
>>
>>173041419
that's a good point, if she's talking to her operator then there's no plot hole. I might be wrong, but is it ever implied in Route A or B that 2B can hear 9S's calls with 210, or that 9S can hear 2B's calls with 6O? I don't think so but I could be wrong

The E type in the side quest was hunting down defectors in the Resistance, so they are the android KGB for everyone, not just scanners.

As 2B you hear him talking with 21O during the betrayers side quest and before he inquires the commander about 2A, but I don't recall 9S listening to any talk with 6O.
>>
>>173041282
I just laugh my ass off at the concept of 2B "bonking" Nines. Like every time he asks a question about something high profile she just bops him upside the head and he forgets everything.
>>
>>173041556
They are not network administrators. Adam and Eve are just machines on the network, just like the stubbies. They're the pinnacle of machine evolution, but they aren't the network and they aren't in control of it.
>>
>>173041556
Nope, they don't control the network, they're just on it. They're just like the other machines but way fancier. For example, Adam disconnects himself from the network during the boss fight, wouldn't be possible (or at least wouldn't be something he'd do) if he was in control of the network or an avatar of it like N2.

>>173041651

I mean, it's basically just 2B with devil trigger, but you can get fun with the devil trigger if you spec it out right. Stack those offensive heal chips and always taunt right after you go berserk and you'll have a good time.

>>173041941
fuck you m8 playing as 9S is neato. Hacking is fun and even if you don't like it, he fact that he can do heavies and lights with the same weapon means that he has access to two movesets at a time (4 taking weapon set swapping into account), just like 2B does. All he's lacking compared to 2B is the crossover attacks, which isn't much to sacrifice in exchange for hacking
>>
>>173042605
Hacking isnt fun, and its way too powerful, nothing stylish about it.
>>
>>173042605
>Hacking is fun and even if you don't like it
Speak for yourself, I found it pretty repetitive since it has like... only 5-7 variations, it is the same shit over and over to the point when you notice the scenario muscle memory does half of the job.

You can say that 2B/A2 is the same thing with the hacking 'n slashing, but at least it is fast paced and has a cool effect.

>he fact that he can do heavies and lights with the same weapon means that he has access to two movesets at a time
Maybe I was playing wrong, but I found no reason to use weapons as 9S outside the little machines, hacking OHKO nearly everything or takes such a humongous amount of damage, you need to hack A2 three times to beat her ffs.

This.
It doesn't matter how fun playing melee 9S is if hacking is so much more efficient that there's literally no reason to ever do anything else from a practical standpoint.
>>
>>173042996
>there's no reason to use weapons as 9S
yeah except for wanting to.

That's like saying
>there's no reason not to stack offensive heal chips on A2 and use berserk mode on everything

A2 with a +7 offensive heal chip and a +7 taunt chip kills bosses faster than hacking, even on hard, and literally all you have to do is berserk and then mash x. There's nothing any enemy in the game can do about it. It's as braindead as hacking ,if not more.

I'm not saying this makes A2 a weaker character than 9S. Just saying that you can break the game to the point of braindeadness w/o them.

Any anyway even if you do abuse hacking Route B is still more challenging than any of the Nier 1 replays, so if you're juding the game as a nier game, not a platinum game, it's at least a big improvement. At the end of the game Automata is a Yoko Taro game developed by Platinum, not a Platinum game directed by Yoko Taro.
>>
>>173043114
>he played on normal
You're right, plug-in chips are easymode on Normal, but on Hard they're absolutely necessary to survive. One of the reasons Hard is the better difficulty, especially once you get to Route b. it makes the chip system actually important instead of just cheese

>>173042901
Then don't fucking hack dude. If you actually care about being stylish in a game like this then clearly efficiency isn't important to you, and you shouldn't be tempted to hack in the first place. so don't

The game as a whole is too easy for that argument to be particularly compelling. You might as well hack, or you might as well not.

Sure buddy. You surely can break the game as the girls, but as I said earlier, it still fast paced and fun even if all you do is smashing a button, you see a shitload of animations, explosions and shit.

Hence why I like the soul box, the hacking sequences there are different and pretty interesting.

>>
>>173043410
I've played through on normal and hard, and all Im saying it, the fun in the combat is from playing it. Building your chips for defense lets fights last longer, building for attack is just to get through the fights quicker.

Besides, telling people to not hack is dumb, no one would put a handicap on their gameplay and ignore a button. youre gonna use what the game gave you because 9S is so boring to play. Having Heavy attack on not its own button sucks, not having the switch weapon attack sucks. I'll admit his move set was pretty fun, and if they were together, the complete character would have been great. 2B shouldve had delayed combo strings.

This. 9S looks like a shota fuckboi but I don't get the sense that he's necessarily younger, personality-wise, than 2B.

He certainly seems less battle-hardened and weary but that's because his most traumatic experiences get wiped and hers don't.

Speaking of, why the fuck don't the wipe 2B every time, too? If she forgot her past experiences with 9S she wouldn't have any real attachment to him and killing him would be much easier, which in turn would be better as far as the android illuminati is concerned

>>173045490

Because even while it hurts her to backstab Nines, she knows everything about him through experience. A new, unexperienced E model will get cocky with him and get her shit hacked out of her given the chance, and Commander may not be nearby with her logic virus backup.
>>
>>173045490
Like>>173045490
said it's not that they wipe their memories, it's that they restore an older backup when they are killed. So presumably in the prologue 2B would have also lost her memories of that specific time 9S died if he didn't do the remote backup, so presumably she may only remember times she killed him rather than them going out together other than that instance as far as we know.

There would be no reason to have to rebrief her every time since she was informed about most of the YorHa stuff from the beginning, and in the event she ever defected they probably had some means of eliminating her.

If you're legitimately too stupid to understand pirates, I can outline it very simply for you:
>other people pay for products, ensuring the continued development of said products via market demand
>pirates, knowing that other people will ensure the continued creation of these products, refrain from paying for these products despite the fact that they enjoy them (because it is advantageous for the pirates to save money for other things)

you can use cheat engine to set your experience to 0. it'll set your level back to 1, and everything will be hard again.

no quests though. you'd have to hack them out of the savefile. half of it is in plain text though, so entries like q561_FIN may indicate completed quest flags.

you'd probably have to compare it with a blank save, but with some work it may be possible to set your savefile to such a state that you have your weapons maxed, all pods and intel stuff, but no levels and no quests so you could enjoy a true new game +.
>>
>>173049115
1. Experiencing a catharsis is not equivalent to having emotional depth.
2. Showing remorse on one's deathbed after fucking up beyond repair is not emotionally mature behavior and is certainly not emotionally mature behavior surpassing someone who never behaved as irrationally or sadistically in the first place.

Not that guy but I did poke around in the save files to see whether I could easily reset quest flags.

I don't know whether it would be skilled labor, but it would certainly be tedious. Flags for having pods and other items seem haphazardly strewn in with completed quest tags, different quests seem to have different types of tags indicating their completion, it looks like a fucking slog to me.

That's interesting what you say about experience, though. I knew levels could be reset with cheat engine, but I was looking to do it lazily via editing the text file and I couldn't find any value relating to my level. I'll try looking for a value relating to experience instead.

gestalt's probably something more than just a simple soul. a soul with no container can't interact with the world (see death), and i'm guessing angelus's maso was used to form such a container, and nier's maso to refine/stabilize it.

Yeah, I can see that, but I don't know how considering I did every fucking sidequest available. It's not like I was allowed to do them again on B side there was just the main story to do and I did it easily because hacking makes any enemy trivial

Am I just completely fucked? Should I stack as many XP chips as I can and try to grind the level 50 enemies? They give fuck-all XP, everything gives fuck-all XP.

No, it sounds more like you didnt find or skipped most sidequests.

Endure this particular section of the game it will get easy again very soon.

Running past enemies and ignoring sidequests isn't being too good, it's rushing through the game. I doubt anyone playing this game actually grinded other than blowing up the golden rabbit a bunch to get to 99 at the very end

Nailed it. I reached a point where I realized that there would be a critical level disparity if I kept running by enemy groups on the world map so I started fighting them even though I didn't need to.

You're not "good" because you managed to get yourself in an "unwinnable" position in a game where the majority of players complain about the game being too easy. If you were, you'd simply fight your way back out of it without getting it.

What was there last year? It was mostly re-releases and indie releases the first three months. 2015 had a limping start too.

Compare this to Berseria, Gravity Rush 2, Yakuza 0, RE7, Nioh, Persona 5, Zelda, Automata, Horizon Zero Dawn.

Add to that that so many of these titles are niche turned triple-AAA (Gravity Rush 2), have been in development hell (Nioh), or been a while since their last mainline entry (Persona, Zelda), and suddenly they all release in one tight window.

It's a pretty unusually awesome start to a year.

It's possible that she did, it's also possible that she didn't and that she just killed 9S when ordered to without knowing why, like in the memory cage novella.

Many people say the obvious anger she shows at some of the game's "glory to humanity" moments are evidence that she knows they aren't real, but that's not necessarily the case: remember that the "gods" she wishes she could kill due to her current situation (having to kill 9S over and over again) are humanity. So it's possible that she blames the humans for her hard life and is just angry at them, and that's why she reacts the way she does.

Essentially, either interpretation, that she does or doesn't know, appears to be equally valid and equally easy to argue with the small amount of evidence provided in the game, so it's really up to the individual's interpretation

And given that Automata was made on a shoestring budget by AAA standard (don't remember the exact number but somewhere in between 5 and 10 million USD, closer to 5 than 10), hopefully this profit margin is enough for Squeenix to throw Taro and Platinum a few extra bucks to pump out some DLC

Uh, I... I don't believe you. Did you hunt down all the red dots on the map, or just take quests given to you in towns?

Because I finished Route A at level 31, and I didn't even do all the sidequests in Route A, just a bunch of them. I don't see how it's even possible to only be level 38 at the start of Route C.

1. If you're on normal, you need to get good at perfect dodging, which is very easy because you can just mash RT to chain dodges.
2. If you're on hard, switch to normal for the Prologue; you can't save until after the prologue is over. Then switch to hard afterwards. However, the entire prologue takes less than 1 hour so I don't know what the fuck you mean saying it took 4 hours to get there.
3. Get the FAR fix from the steam forums, it will literally double your performance.
4. Get the fuck off this general before you get spoiled, come back once you've fully beaten the game.

Okay you rushed the fuck through, then. I was 20 hours in when I finished ending A. I really took my time, but most people are at least 15 hours in when they get ending A. And don't say it's because you're so super good, the game isn't hard at all. I probably died twice.

You must have sprinted past fucking anything for it to be even possible for you to get to ending C at 18 hours in.

Okay, you can stop complaining now, we've solved the mystery: you skipped tons of shit, probably missed out on plenty of quests you never found, and ran past groups of enemies whenever you got the chance. You rushed through the game at lightning speed, that's why you're underleveled. Mystery solved. you have my permission to stop posting now.

howtobeat says 12 hours for a fast run of A, which sounds about right since I spend 12 hours on story content and 4-5 on sidequests before rushing through B side in 2 hours or so.

Dude, I'm sorry, you played the fucking game wrong. You rushed through it lightning quick and then complained about being underleveled? You seriously must have sprinted past almost every combat encounter that doesn't lock you in a room, fucking pathetic.

Just switch to easy mode so you can finish the game. Then at least you can use chapter select to go back and catch up on the huge amount of content you missed

lol you're the one complaining to us because you played the game wrong and are now being punished. You haven't actually admitted it but from everything you're saying it's EXTREMELY clear that you were just sprinting and jumping past most combat encounters.

I have a retarded friend who only did story quests, no sidequests, and even he wasn't underleveled when he got to C. You think all those normie reviewers did all the sidequests, or that they grinded? Hell no, but none of them complained about being underleveled at route C.

you fucking skipped most of the combat like a speedrunning fag or you wouldn't have been so underlevelled.

So drop the game or switch it to easy. either way stop complaining here.

The true answer is because Nier 1/Cavia didn't have the budget or knowhow to make a proper Day/Night cycle, so Taro game up with an in-universe excuse for it being always day, and didn't want to retcon it with Automata.

Why didnt Taro come up with a better use for Emil than a cameo character and a secret sidequest where you bully him to suicide for no good reason at all?

He could be a part of the story or somethng.
He could play Pascal's role for him or i dunno, matter in any way.

If you're using KB/M, ditch them for a controller ASAP. Plug in a PS4 controller and download either SCP or use the native drivers from windows update/the internet manual install if your pc doesnt find them.

Install FAR

Turn off AA (this is a huge resource hog in this game for some reason, even 2x killed my PC, disabling it gave me like a 20fps boost. Interestingly jumping from 8x AF to 16x AF net no fps change).

It's because it's MSAA, some people were saying you can force different AA but I didn't have any luck in my control panel settings, although I didn't try it with reshade, which supposedly works.

The AO adds postprocessing AA anyway.

That's the Emil's Determination quest in a nutshell. If you play it as A2 he even calls you Kaine by accident. But outside of that, I don't think Taro wanted the game to be too intrinsically connected to Nier 1, which I can respect.
>>
>>173063705
>What is this? I think was important but i cant remember
He literally says this at a few points throughout the game, at least once during the Emil's Memories quest, and the tragic aspect of his character makes up 100% of the Emil's Determination quest.

Please tell me you're not posting these questions when you haven't beat the game, anon...

lol, it's not morality BS dude. it's that the game won't be cracked for a long time. It's running the newest version of Denuvo, and the piratefag crackboys very recently tweeted that they had absolutely no plans concerning the newest version at this point.

It's not "get a job pirating is THE DEVIL REEEE" it's "get a job because if you refuse to pay for the game, you're not gonna get to play it for a long fucking time."

>>173064124
I don't know how intentional this is, but hey, reader-response criticism we go: I appreciate the aliens for the mere fact that they're dead. The game very obviously has a bunch of parallels between machines and androids and one of them is that both have dead creators (though the machines killed theirs because they found them boring, humans died out and are admired by androids) and both are fighting to exterminate an enemy that is already dead, tying into the overall theme of (meaningless) struggle for struggle's sake. The Commander even makes it clear towards 2B/9S that the aliens being dead should remain a secret for now, just like the extinction of humans.

How can you be underleveled for C anyways?

I almost did no sidequest and only grinded a few mobs at the end of A which sent me from level 22 to 30 (killing all the mad machines until they don't respawn). I still ended up being the same level as most mobs +-2 level and without any weapon on level 4.

Just get some paper and write down each one you spot and come back after you finish the game unless you want the weapons and lore now.

You can't redo subquests, so no worries there. There are new quests unique to route B, and any side quests you left undone are still available, but any you completed are still completed. In short: PLAY THE GAME.

If your level is low and you get 5 hacking attempt, A2's hacking pattern is the same as 2B's hacking pattern during the 2B army battle.
>>
>>173071869
This is an anime game and 2B has the greatest strength of character among all of them, which means she'd win in any fair fight against anyone in the game.

>>173072038
>which means she'd win in any fair fight against anyone in the game
she was obliterated by Nines himself in Memory Cage and he had less combat experience than his current version

What the fuck?

Does this only happen in hard, because I didn't get the 3d plane part at all when I did the D ending on normal.
>>
>>173072162
Then it must not have been a fair fight by the rules of anime and friendship.

Do the shortcuts in the prologue only stay open in normal mode or something?

She tried to ambush 9S but he ambushed her first. Swings and roundabouts.
>>
>>173072350
He just disabled her instead of killing her before backup plan from Commander triggered, maybe planning his way to escape, maybe planning to take her with him so it wasn't a complete lack of friendship or whatever he felt towards her in that iteration.
>>
>>173072510
Holy fuck 2B sucks at her job
>>
>>173072863
E units are supposed to backstab, not kill in open confrontation. Real B units carry a shitload of weapons at once, she can only carry two.
But yeah, her entire point is that she's really not suited for what she's forced to do.
Hopefully 9S will correct this mistake by giving her a happy life after ending E.

What if 9S's mental breakdown in Route C was just because of the E-drug
>>
>>173073885
He needs either humanity or 2B to maintain sanity.
Route C robbed him from both of those.
2B is his best E-drug and he can't get enough of her and even has a special waifu folder of her in his own mind.
>>
>>173074354
He probably had a few pics of Commander too. Everybody does. Especially 6O

the time in the beginning of the game when youre at the bunker. 9s and her do the glory to humanity thing and then the game zooms on her angrily pressing her hand

A lot of people attribute her fist thing to be anger at 9S not remembering what happened

How would you rank the boss fights in this game? We need to make our own approved boss tier list.

>>173074937
Which is a vital part of why she wants to "kill the god" which is effectively humanity as she wants to free herself and him from this retarded cycle.
And Nietzschean concept of the "death of god" means stopping to believe in him or letting the idea of God to influence your life or morality.

The only one I remember not being boring garbage is ballbot mk. 2 (electric puddle boogaloo).

Adam has like, two melee attacks and one ranged attack? Even has like two attacks per form? The bosses in this game are fucking pathetic, it's insane. Hegel gets points for being a really ballsy design, mechanics wise, although I hated it. Other than that there's really nothing. I've forgotten most of the other bosses.

Just finished ending E, got a few questions
Who was N2/Red Girl, and why does she appear during route B? Why does 2B in end of route A/B implies she has killed 9S more than once? Why do Androids wear a bandage over their eyes? What did A2 mean with ending C? Why did 9S start getting heavily damaged while fighting in route C, and why did his eyes get the red glow?
>>
>>173076398
How did he get 3rd person pictures?
>>
>>173074937
>>173076053
Exactly. Which is why her doing this doesn't necessarily support the theory that she knows the truth about humanity.

I'm not saying it doesn't, just that there are other explanations. I think whether or not 2B knows is one of those things where there's really the same amount of evidence on both sides of the argument and it's just up to personal interpretation.

>>173076352
>Who was N2/Red Girl, and why does she appear during route B?
The personification of the machine network. N2 is just the avatar of the collective machine consciousness.

>Why does 2B in end of route A/B implies she has killed 9S more than once?
She has. Her entire role as 2E is to kill 9S every time he learns the truth about humanity being long dead.

>Why do Androids wear a bandage over their eyes?
Idk, it's probably Taro's fetish.

>What did A2 mean with ending C?
She got over her edgy machine angst and noticed the world was beautiful.

>Why did 9S start getting heavily damaged while fighting in route C, and why did his eyes get the red glow?
When he attached the 2B unit's arm to his own, it re-infected him with the logic virus.
>>
>>173076710
it's almost as though we discussed that very thing in this very thread

durrrr
>>
>>173076053
That line bothered me in the beginning, since kill the god is a bit different than what she actually says, 弓を引く, which translates more closely to disobey/defy/turn on.

It is definitely hostile but doesn't necessarily mean to physically "kill", now that you bring up the Nietzsche connection it works a bit better though.

You should probably replay the game, you missed a lot of the most important plot points.
N2 is the collective consciousness of the machine network, it appeared to monitor you during critical moments a couple times since a lot of the things happening to you are engineered by it and it wants to see the results.
2B is actually a 2E unit, an Executioner. She acts as a killswitch for 9S whenever he comes too close to confidential information that would compromise the Bunker and isn't supposed to be public knowledge. She's killed him countless times before the game even starts and he had his memories wiped every time.
The bandages are combat visors, giving them a HUD and other useful information.
9S was being contaminated by the logic virus 2B's arm carried since he implanted it. That little hack he did managed to remove 95% off it so he was fine for a little while, but eventually it still started to take over.

Red girl/N2 was a consciousness born out of the machine network's desire to emulate humanity. It appeared in route B, as far as I can tell, for "oooh forshadowing" and nothing else, though I'd love to be proved wrong on that point.

A2 and 2B explain that 2B has killed 9S many times, she's been killing him over and over again for years. A2 makes this very clear right before the final fight, maybe rewatch that cutscene. She's an E unit, her real name is 2E; if you missed the "amnesia" sidequest in Route B for fuck's sake go back and do it and it'll make more sense. Everytime 9S gets too close to the truth about humanity, she is forced to kill him, and his memory is wiped. Hers never has been. When they "meet" in the prologue, she has known him for ages and they've been on many missions together, but for him it's the first time they're meeting. The bandage over their eyes is basically a revengeance reference; it's an AR visor or whatever. it's also just a literal metaphor for how they're blind to the truth (that humanity is no more, that 2B is a 2E unit designed to kill 9s, etc).

9S was getting damaged because... because he was getting damaged. The red glow is because he was infected with the logic virus by 2B's hand he attached to his arm, which is straight up stated by the pod. It sounds like you need to make sure you got all the sidequests (namely Amnesia) but also just replay the last chapter of the game, a few of these questions are outright stated. It's said several times out loud that 9S has been infected with the virus through the 2B hand and can only surpress it for so long.
>>
>>173076954
Who could blame it?
>>
>>173076493
>who was n2
>why does 2b imply she's killed 9S more than once
>why do 9S eyes turn red

Every single one of these questions is directly answered in a cutscene, most of them more than twice. It sounds like you weren't paying much attention, anon...
>>
>>173076493
>Why did 9S start getting heavily damaged while fighting in route C
Bunker is not around anymore to provide repairs and he goes on a single man genocide crusade pushing himself over all limits possible.
2B asked about getting routine maintenance even after simply fighting Adam in the beginning, and 9S killed a few armies of robots.
>>
>>173076493
>Why do Androids wear a bandage over their eyes?
Taro said that the character designer is a perv.
He actually made DG3 story mostly based on the look presented for Zero.
The blindfolds also give the scenes more impact when we see the full face (not like the dead stares in Kingdom Hearts). Taro says that he is in awe about the current technology, being able to create so many emotional faces.

>>
>>173077615
Can you really not think for yourself even just a little bit?
He's simply a hell of a lot more perceptive than 2B. He's a super high spec scout model that is so advanced command decided it needed its own fucking killswitch to be able to keep it in check, what do you think?
>>
>>173077615
9S is as advanced as Adam/Eve and provides a shitload of insight into existential values N2 needs so much.
Entire route C is N2 giving 9S personal hell to test him.
