Thanks for making a new thread. Now I have a community to go to whenever the music reminds me how alone I am.

On that note, a genderswap 2B and 9S would work horribly, but that's just me.

By the way, would anyone like to see Papa Nier dressed as 2B or is that just me? I'm thinking of drawing that.

So let me get this straight, are the resistance androids the same as replicants, or are the two completely separate things?

Resistance Androids are regular androids caught in the frontlines of wherever Automata takes place. They're just regular androids with regular AI. I suspect they're modeled after humans moreso than YoRHa androids which explains their uselessness in combat.

YoRHa androids are cutting-edge combat orientated models created from a project to make it look like humans on the moon are alive and made new, better androids to fight. They have more combat predisposition than the more general-purpose androids milling about. Their AI is repurposed from machine cores probably for the sake of mass production and to make them seem less like regulars.

>Square Enix wants to make another 13 game.
NieR Automata - Happy ending and doesn't need to be touched. Taro messed it up thanks to the NieR concert.

NieR Au2mata - Accord will be in this game and time travel shenanigans will happen. She brings A2B on an adventure to help solve paradoxes to bring 9S back. 9S wakes up at the end.

9S Returns: NieR Automata - 9S has become God and it's up to 2B and the gang to fix it. The final boss is GOD!9S. He says lewd things to 2B during the battle, like how much he wants to fuck her and make her his QUEEN. 2B kills GOD!9S and he turns back into cute little shota and doesn't remember what happened all thanks to the power of love.

Replicants all died because their Gestalts all relapsed. Without Nier to generate maso to stabilize the Gestalts, errors in their DNA caused them to all die out about 800(?) years after NieR Gestalt/RepliCant.
Replicant body data and Gestalt data are present on the moon server, and are probably what the androids use to base their bodies from, even till now.
>>
>>175029325
I assume you haven't played the first Nier. Replicants are human shells made during Project Gestalt. Their corresponding soul, or Gestalt, was supposed to return to their body after the rermoval of every single maso particle on Earth. However, the Replicants gained sentience, and rejected the Gestalts from returning to their bodies. A Replicant will die from the Black Scrawl if their corresponding Gestlat is killed or relapses. During the events of the first game, Shadowlord, the original Gestalt, was killed by his Replicant. Shadowlord was the only being keeping the Gestalts from relapsing, and with his death, doomed humanity to extinction.

So in those 4 translated stories there's virtually no signs of why 9S couldn't awaken at all, but massive amounts of absolutely heartbreaking 2B9S moments.
Looks like for them memories of each other is what defines their "self", this is past some petty romance, it's a straight "true love" territory as much cliche as it sounds.

It was barely touched aside from a few references and a cameo

Okay, I remember that now, I hadn't played the game but I watched Clemps's Drakenguard/Nier analysis
>>
>>175029664
And that's what will likely happen if there's an Automata sequel. Drakengard 1 was barely touched (2 wasn't Taro). Drakengard 3 was barely touched. Nier was barely touched. Automata will barely be touched.

Who cares.

>>175028956
Yep. The androids are everything but realistically shaped. They're more designed to follow contemporary ideals of what beauty was to humans.

Which in the end makes sense as they are created to serve humanity and there's no real drawback to it.
>>
>>175030224
So I don't see what the problem is, It doesn't affect the story of the previous game apart from emil's ultimate fate, it's almost as much of a spinoff as Nier was to Drakenguard

They're fucking robots dude. Human bodies aren't all that efficiently designed as far as space goes.

Now the important thing here is that Replicants cannot have children and their bodies are created artificially by copying the Replicant body using data from the Gestalt. However after a Gestalt relapsed this was impossible and the replicant will not be reconstructed after death.

>>
>>175030483
My point is it's fucking retarded to say SE wants to turn Automata into another XIII situation. If Automata "doesn't need to be touched" then the same was equally true of Taro's other games. IF there is a follow-up it'll likely have little to do with Automata.

Not entirely, the waist is at least a little bit wider. It's 56cm and the hips are 88cm, though obviously that's the hip overall and not a single thigh.

Either way, she's thick as fuck and that's great.

You see, though, Nier was barely touched by Automata, if this concert was all SE's doing, then that would be molesting the title, there is a big difference between the two

Well biologically speaking feminine traits are indeed built to take dick. Exaggerate the hell out of those traits and put 'em on a robot and bang you got a sexy robot I guess.

I find it interesting how 2B and A2 can have different effects on different people. 2B is sexy but A2 looks like a giant porcelain doll so I can't really get the appeal.

Used a few different translators for this line to try to make sense of it

>Her existence, called family, what would be an oversimplification. Known as lovers, what is also too distant.

>Her existence, is called as the words of family member, acts sloppily. Is called as the words of lover, is extremely remote.

>Her presence, called family words, is to mess up. Called lovers, how too far away.

So basically what it sounds like is that it would be wrong to call it simply familial love, because their love goes beyond that. But... they have definitely never actually gotten romantic yet.

That's what it always boils down to. You fags are pissy because one ending out of 26 is potentially being changed and now the happily ever after you all dreamt up is in danger of being invalidated. Idiots are trying to claim that adding on to E will ruin the game when the fact is the game could have never included that ending and it still would have been fantastic. E was a narrative asspull to begin with and it being altered would change nothing. We don't even know which ending, if any, is canon or will be continued in a future game.

>>175033976
You do realize 21 of those endings are jokes and 4 of them are just chapter endings right? Citing one ending out of '26' as if they are all supposed be equally valid conclusions is a bit silly. The game only really has one final ending.

3 years is a while, but that new reveal is pretty much flat out saying that even though their love is certainly beyond familial, they still couldn't be considered lovers.

I doubt it, Yoko very rarely revisits shit he's done before (I'm honestly surprised they had a condensed version of the screenplay in the game). If story DLC gets made, it'll be about new shit, similar to how the story DLC for Drakengard 3 was all new shit.

Basically, we need Anemone and Jackass wacky hijinks DLC. Oh, and I guess we could bring A2 along to shut up those who would inevitably whine about A2 not getting enough screen time.

With 1M+ in sales, he has to at least be thinking about additional DLC. And if he doesn't, Squenix will nudge him. That's a lot of money to leave on the table.
>>
>>175040102
This is assuming we even ever get story DLC for the game. The only DLC the original Nier got was basically colosseum dlc, similar to what we're getting now.

I'm a bit suspicious that the price of the DLC is double that of the one from the original Nier despite basically being the same thing (Recycled Vessel cost 7 dollars, compared to what is presumably 15 dollars). I wouldn't be surprised if Yoko and co hid some story stuff in there.

Yes. Although in defense of the other guy, this was before anyone knew the game was going to sell as well as it did.

If they do work on story dlc, then they likely only just started on it, which means we won't see it for quite a long time unless they go the cheap route like Drakengard 3's dlcs.

Publishers, like Squenix, are basically financiers. They say "We like your idea for the game, here's some money. Don't go over budget or else." That's why Taro says he didn't have the money to build DLC.

However, if Taro or Squenix want DLC, then Squenix will say "We like your idea for DLC, here's some money..."
>>
>>175040518

I think I heard 30M budget, so that means sales have doubled cost, and SE probably gets more than half of that. No idea if 15M+ profit is enough for them to feel the need to splurge on a story dlc.
>>
>>175040964
Well, it's pretty clear that androids have to latch onto whatever hope they can. I imagine most androids, even the more bitter ones like A2, would like to believe there's something good waiting for them instead of pitch black nothingness.

Andromeda supposedly had a 40M budget, and that's a triple A game. Nier had no where near the manpower or marketing budget that game had, so it's budget is likely quite a lot lower than 30M, especially since it's a niche sequel to a niche game that sold like shit.

No idea about Andromeda but google says triple A games can be 100-200M. I'm not sure where I heard 30M for automata but I believe I did. But if the budget was lower then that just means more profit.

My understanding is that publishers do like to do dlc because they're obviously a ripoff, like this arena dlc obviously is.

I disagree halfway. I think that YoRHa androids have true AI and true sentience, but the platform that it's stored on is different from the ones in the other androids for the reasons you mentioned. But perhaps that's why you put "real" in quotes.

That's the point. Note how androids go on and on about how machines don't have feelings yet they quite obviously do. They just presumed machines were incapable of emotion, and therefore decided it would be more ethical to base YoRHa off of machine AI than android AI.

It's explicitly stated ingame that using standard android AI for YorHa was deemed inhumane.

Thus, by using the cores of machines--who are believed to be incapable of consciousness or thought--the ethical issue is resolved. You aren't raising and killing an intelligence. It's just a mindless machine.

It's left as an open question whether the machines actually evolved intelligence or whether they're just emulating humanity. But that's the problem of other minds in a nutshell.

Well hey, the game doesn't stop you so that's fine, and someone still benefits in the end.

I find it rather fitting, what with Ending E about rebelling and beating the system/fate and all, that one can defy it in this instance as well if one decides to go down this route.

I have read there were some problems with the PC port of Nier Automata. Are most of the fixed by now either though official or unofficial fixes?
I have a 1070 so I would like to play it on PC for better framerate if there aren't any problems, but I could buy it for PS4 pro if the pc port still has problems.
>>
i only lost some dumb nips data so i dont give a fuck if don't sacrifice my data

>>175058037

There's the FAR mod that can help with framerates a lot depending on if you want the 100% overrender or cut it back a bit and also fixes the downscale-upscale issue with fullscreen. At "High" FAR setting, maxed ingame setting with a 1070 and 2560x1440 I get a steady 50FPS with peaks at 110

does he? at the final moments his eyes begin to glow red anyway. it seems more like he mostly purges it, but the virus goes dormant, adapts and overcomes his purge, becoming too complex to deal with.

I can't understand shit in most of them thanks to google translate but the only thing is obvious so far is that 2B and 9S are infatuated even deeper than the game portrays, 9S is smart as fuck, 153 was the one warning Commander and 2B about 9S accessing classified info and Taro most likely will present an unused story branch where 9S doesn't die after his combat with A2 and ends up doing something foolish.

In fact, i won't be surprised if HE is the one who was supposed to sacrifice his data to save his comrades original Nier style before Taro decided to go with the idea of E we see in the game.

She also said that the world is beautiful so it's not like her life would be devoid of meaning.

Also, during the start of E Pods are saying that it's really fucking risky to attempt data salvage. If 9S did it in one of the possible outcomes and especially without outside help from auditory, this would explain why his personal data was fucked.

both cases the pods play that game. they're fighting against their programming forcing them to delete the stored memories.

maybe during that fight 9s's memories got corrupted.

>>
>>175070840
>9S plays the game himself
that makes no sense.the game is the pods fighting against their programming using their newfound consciousness. it's not a "bring the androids back to life game," the pods can just do that. but to do it they need to fight their programming. 9S playing the game is impossible and also makes no sense
>>
>>175071105
how is that relevant to >>175070994

it's impossible that 9S was playing the credits game as the point of the credits game was that the pods are breaking their programming so they can have free will
>>
>>175071105
if we assume the theory that in ending C 9s an heroes, then C>E could be for taro's play.

ending D's 9s overcame his hatred, despair and found inner peace. ending C's 9s didn't, and was pretty much left all alone, until he sudoku'd. until that moment his memories were recorded by the pod.

D's 9s would wake up no problems, even post>leave one, since his last memories would be "i accept". he'd probably be confused "why am i here? why is 2b alive? is this the ark?", but otherwise fine.

so maybe they try to revive C's 9s. his last thoughts were probably "2b is dead. humans are dead. i have no more reasons to live. it's time to die too", and that's what he's revived with, thus he doesn't want to get back up, because he's still trying to kill himself.
>>
>>175071213
>it's impossible that 9S was playing the credits game
Just like there's not a single canon reason he won't wake up if it's D into E.
Maybe during Taro's version of C 9S intervened when he learned about leftover data and did the whole thing by himself.

Not sure how it being a side branch makes much sense seeing as how we know 2B is there. Unless the pods revived 2B and A2 and then went and found corrupted out 9S and threw him next to 2B just so she could find him dead when she wakes up. Would kind of make the pods into some real funny guys.

"Jean-Paul Sartre's (1905-1980) defining preposition for the movement, "existence precedes essence," rules out any ground or foundation for establishing an essential self or a human nature. When we abandon illusions, life is revealed as nothing; and for the existentialists, nothingness is the source of not only absolute freedom but also existential horror and emotional anguish.

Nothingness reveals each individual as an isolated being "thrown" into an alien and unresponsive universe, barred forever from knowing why yet required to invent meaning. It's a situation that's nothing short of absurd." --http://www.iep.utm.edu/nihilism/

Any of that sound familiar to you? It should if you played the game; Jean-Paul Sartre was even the name of one of the machine lifeforms you did a quest for. The whole damn point of the game is that you have to invent your own purpose in life and, for one brief shining moment, two androids in the ruins of a devastated world found one in each other.

They're never shown but YoRHa was set up by whatever "Command" runs the greater android society, like the intel file on it says. Remember, the other androids we're seeing ingame are only resistance fighters, whereas we know from the artbook that the androids overall have set up at least twelve other space stations besides the Bunker, they established a cosmetic staffed base on the moon sending useless rockets there willy-nilly, and they supply the resistance with carriers and ICBM missiles, so it's safe to say they're quite sophisticated.

Pod 153: "Denied: An error occured during the reboot sequence of 9S."
2B: "...What kind of error?"
Pod 153: "Unknown: All checks were successfully completed, yet his self-consciousness data refuses to begin the loading sequence. As such, he currently cannot be reactivated."
2B: "His self-consciousness data won't load...? Try running the monitoring sequence, but skip the confirmation sequences, and..."
Pod 153: "Negative: 345 combinations have already been attempted for a total of 34500 times, and all have ended in failure."
Pod 153: "The most likely explanation for this condition is that the self-consciousness data of 9S has faded away for some reason or other."
2B: "His self-consciousness data has faded away...?
Pod 153: "Proposal: Consider disposing of the body of YoRHa unit 9S."
2B, in a strong tone of voice: "There's no way I could think of just 'disposing' of him like that...!"

OK, here's a really rough translation and I can't guarantee that it's completely right either but here's what I can translate.

Part 1:

Pod 135: 9S's reactivation test was unsuccessful, a bug was detected.

2B: A bug...?

Pod 135: Unknown: System checks completed. However, self data loading failed and unit is unable to reactivate.

2B: Self loading failed...? If the monitor test won't run then skip the check test.

Pod 153: (Can't really understand this part, I think it goes like this) This unit has already tried 345 different methods to bypass the error. However, all 34500 attempts made have failed.

I mean this is just looking more and more like he's just really not going to wake up. There have already been several nips on twitter saying he never wakes up, and now we have this showing them unable to get him to come back.

The only fishy thing about it is 153's comments seem to be written to be mildly humorous, which would be out of place if it's meant to be truly sad.

He could very easily just say it's going to be a performance of a non-canon ending just for the fans who are there. They actually did exactly that when TLoU had some concert and clearly advised everyone in advance to not take it as canon. But Taro hasn't said anything like that.
>>
>>175079417

042 did say to the player that your data has been deleted.

I said possible because 可能性 is the word for possible or possibly.

Yet. And by mere coincidence it is advised not to share or translate it.

So this just means there's one branch where 9S sacrificed his own data to save 2B instead of players.
>>
>>175079417
If it really turns out that he deleted his data to save 2B that would be cute, although it wouldn't make any sense because he saves A2 as well and he doesn't care about her. Plus the pods were the ones to restore 2B and A2 anyways so it would make even less sense that he would just needlessly delete his own data. Unless he made a mistake believing that he needed to when he didn't, in which case he died like a retard for no reason. I don't really see it.

Really it seems like that story is set as a "what-if! lead-in to Ending E where 9S chose to "ride the Ark" instead of "stay behind".
In all honesty, it's hard to tell from those two pages alone since it's clear there was more leading up to it and the conversation obvious doesn't just end there. Have the rest of the pages been posted anywhere at all?

Man this really sounds more like a lead-in for a miracle type of deal. Which would be logical from a storytelling point of view. Even if there's to be a happy outcome, you still need to have some hardship before that point. Otherwise the happyness just doesn't have the same impact.

I'd like to know what happens after this point.

>>175080310

It's been confirmed that 9S didn't leave on the ark from the cryptic message that some anon posted a while ago.

9S said that he does not deserve to leave Earth for what he's done and that "Yorhas don't deserved to be love."

In that case, I'm stumped. The text is vague on whether his data was erased deliberately or simply faded away, but the kanji 消失 leans more towards "died out/vanished" than "destroyed/erased". Plus, Pod 153 simply suggests it as the "most likely possibility", not the ONLY possibility.

The Bunker still exists and it's pretty clear that it's 9S and Eve are fusing together, so most likely this is at the end of route A/B where 9S's body is being corrupted just seconds before 2B gives him his quietus.

For the most part, it only makes sense around A/B, maybe a little bit for D as well but from what the anon said, it's right after they defeated Eve so D is out the window.

There's no such thing as non-canon as far as Taro goes. Everything is canon, you're just getting buttblasted over one possibility out of myriad possible.

I think Taro did it purely to provide some alternative to absolutely enormous amount of happy fan content.

>>175083932
If it's a totally separate ending then sure, but if he's directly adding on to ending E then you can't just pretend it didn't happen. I would officially be a canon part of that ending.
>>
>>175084725
The beauty of ending E is that you can reject anything added after it as it's a collective effort of players. Unless he makes this shitshow flowing into Nier 3, i won't buy it. It has no logic and reason for happening, it straight goes against the entire buildup of the narrative and especially the part about Pods having all their memories.
>>
>>175084081
hivemind was broken. n2 is a network of various machines/nodes, each one of them follows the hivemind, but is also capable of acting by itself as shown by those who were given the illusion of complete freedom, which was a controlled, monitored freedom that could be (and was) revoked at any moment. it wasn't explained how, other than increasing the amount of them hacking a2 at once.

maybe as more and more of them started appearing, some began trying/theorizing about different strategies since the one taken by the hivemind wasn't working, which led to forming a split that deepened, eventually rapidly developing different mindsets which then ignored hacking a2, and instead began annihilating each other.
>>
So.
1. Nothing really new in 4 stories, no reasons/plot devices for 9S to delete his consciousness
2. 9S presumably alive after tower collapses.
3. We know that he didn't fly away with gay-band.

You see what is missing between tower collapsing and 2B waking up? The fucking game credit sequence. With everyone's blackbox signals offline.
It was explicitly said by pods that personal data was "leaking" so it was there for everyone and we collaboratively helped them to preserve it.

Now we see that for some reason 9S lost his consciousness(aka personal data). Suspicious isn't it?

Consider that the game is still new, dlc is coming around the date of concerts, additional stuff like strategy book also comes out... and even Taro's recent interview and the whole "don't share" mentality with this book?

I mean Taro is a known asshole but it looks like he will just present something he originally intended and won't actually touch real ending E in the game. We are being super jebaited now. Hell he even commented cute 3-weeks old fanart for some reason saying that he can't create such stories.

So chill everyone, no one is taking your ending away. And if Taro decides in the future to continue from this bs only then we can rebel.

しゃん、とぼくは背筋を伸ばす。おねえちゃんはちょっとぎこちない笑顔で、ぼくに訊ねる。
「君たちの名前は?」
「ぼくは……」
そのとき、背後でがしゃん、と何かが落ちる音がした。結構大きい音だったので、手を繋いだままの2Bがぴくんって反応したのが分かった。つられて、ぼくもそっちを振り返る。
そうして、ぼくはまんまるに目を見開いた。たぶん、2Bもそうだったとおもう。
「……な……」
僕らの視線の先にいるのは、なんと、ぼくにそっくりそのままの姿をした、銀髪、S型のアンドロイドだった。そう、なにからなにまでそっくりだ。服装も、顔も、髪の毛の色も、なにもかも。
相手はゴーグルをつけてはいるけれど、まるで、信じられないようなものをみた、って表情をして、ぼくたち二人をまじまじ見つめているのが、ぼくにはわかった。だって、くちびるだってわなわなさせてるんだもの。動揺してるのがまるわかりだ。
だけど、信じられないものをみた、って気持ちなら、ぼくだって負けてはいない。反射的に、2Bを背中にかばった。9S? って2Bが聞いてくる超えがしたけど、ぼくは負けないよう――何にかは分からなかったけど――とっさに、顎をくいって上げる。精一杯瞳に力を込めて、相手をみつめかえしてやる。
「なんですか、あなた。じろじろ、人のことを見て」

I'd translate it myself but it's a bit much when I'm tired, and it's clearly a chunk of something larger. I'll put down the gist of the scene in the next post:
>>
>>175084304

It's very possible, I just kind of thought the red eye is the cliche thing since every game does it.
>>
>>175078902
>>175085659
9S seems to be reminiscing on an event of some kind. 2B asks with an awkward smile "What are your names?", and 9S is about to try and answer when they both hear a sound from behind them. They turn around to find a Type-S android wearing goggles, staring at them in utter disbelief like he can't believe what he's seeing. 9S notes that this android looks exactly like himself in every single way. 9S moves to stand in front of 2B as if to protect her from something - though he doesn't quite know why - before turning to face the Type-S android with a firm look. Then he asks "What's with you, just ogling people up and down like that?", and the page ends there.

If anyone had the rest I could give that a shot maybe tomorrow, but otherwise that's all there is to that one page.
2B asking "names" isn't a mistake by the way, that's plural in the Japanese. Probably after A/B end where 9S's consciousness data is in the machine lifeforms? Not enough context to tell.

I'm expecting originality from a Yoko Taro game. And with version of ending there's none unlike original E.

>I'm expecting originality from a Yoko Taro game.

Basically. Ending E sent a very clear and powerful message. There is literally no reason to add anything to it at all.

Then again, I'm waiting til I can see the whole picture and how it all ties together before I lose my shit. All of this is too fucking vague to make sense out of.

That might be ridiculous and off the wall kind of nonsense, but as long as it doesn't contradict anything that came before it then it's not the same type of nonsense we potentially have here. The complaint with the concert is not that it's ridiculous, rather that it contradicts things that were already set up by the story.

Not only that, but 153 in chapter 5 calls 9S by his official designation, a thing she doesn't do on route C anymore, let alone asking to just dispose of his body.

Don't tell me it's some CYCLES shit and it's actually an ending that happened prior to game events.

Yup, definitely seems that 2B and 21O had a rival hidden in plain sight. As noted in the translation, Pod 153 drops the "Report" prefix after being confronted for her reasons, so it's possible it's getting a little emotional.

>>175096373
Pod 153 was doing its duty to the Yorha project, regardless of its personal feelings. However, during the ending E sequence, pod 042 says he also knows that ending C/D is not what it pod 153 wanted and in the ending video we see pod 042 helping out with the repair process.

>>175096702
Repairs aren't complete for any of the androids yet. The pods clearly expect all 3 to wake up, but whether 9S will or not is indeterminate at this point.

Sure looks like it.
It's probably an original concept of Taro's ending before he got the whole "players collectively blowing through the credits" thing. This would explain that siliconera interview where he stated that he weren't initially planning a current E ending which is a happy one.

At that point, 9S is basically a full-bore psycho who intends to keep killing until he's killed and even 9S himself knows it (Remember "Sweet dreams, 9S. I'll be with you before long." from the keepsakes mission?).

Yeah, the pods grabbed all his personality data but 9S probably isn't going to want to come back.
>>
>>175099195
9S gets calmed down in both D endings.
The only way to make sense for him not wanting to wake up if he went through ending C then killed himself and wished to stay dead so his data rejects attempts to get him back and running again.

9S definitely is still not okay in Ending D. Both of your options amount to him saying that Yorhas still have no business existing.

because it is true?

In D leave he straight finds strength to continue living and there's not a single reason local copy can't exist at the same time.

He's not leaving because he wants to live, he's leaving because he doesn't deserve to stay on the earth. His words.
9S is still pretty suicidal no matter how you look at Ending D.

i just bought automata on pc, i hope i didn't get memed

>>175101516
"Don't deserve" and "straight suicidal" are different things and it doesn't explain why his self-consciousness data fades away despite Pods recovering all of it.

9S is not saying "holy shit I want to die" in big bold letters but he's speaking as a man that doesn't want to keep living. There's no explanation for why he deleted his own data because we had no idea it was something that could happen until this script turned up. We don't have enough context to place this event at all, and we just know that the pods tried to reboot him and it didn't work. But 9S is fully capable of taking this option if presented to him in both of those endings, which is my point.

And, really, if he was well enough in one particular route of the game for this to not be the case, then there would be no element of uncertainty to Ending E at all, which goes against that ending completely.

he was dying anyway there, he used his last remaining power to answer Ark invite.


Well, I can asspull an explanation!
We don't know what actually happened with 9S because Pods only "rescued" some of his memories. So he might as well sudoku after declining invite(and for some fucking reason left a message about it, wat?) when he talks about 2B looking at the sky.
>>
>>175104557

All of them. For all of them.
He doesn't want to boot? Format his body and install different parts of his memory from backup again to see what exactly prevents him from booting.

Cockblocked by his own characters and players alike.
It seems really shitty compared to what's is in actual game.
>>
>>175104786
>All of them. For all of them.
I am talking about ending D monolog, it was his "rescued" memories.

But yeah it contradicts ending E. But in E pods said about the memories only after the credit sequence.

>>175104046
>painful voice
kind of sounds like he actually wanted/tried to, and then when the copy was awakened he realized that he failed that (even though in that case he didn't, the original who went through the tower and fought a2 is still on the ark), so he's disappointed.
>>
>>175098907

How do I access these blips? The one on the left flickers and I can't find anything at it and the one on the right is on top of a building I can't find a way t get up to.
>>
Is there an Emil ending in automata? If so, should I finish Nier 1 before I do it?
>>
>>175109006
The one on the right requires you to climb a building next to it and then jump-dash to the rooftop where the sidequest is.

For the one on the left: Try climbing the highway ramp next to the grounded goliath. At the top there should be a flying machine lifeform that you can talk to. He's flying around though so you can miss him.
>>
>>175109036
his story does get resolved in one of the sidequests, the requirements to get it are the standard yoko taro fare. get all weapons, upgrade all to max.

so yeah, finishing nier 1 may give you extra material for the stuff from that to be more painful.
>>
Just beat the 3rd ending...a few questions:

Is it okay to stop playing now? I was fucking pissed when I finished the first ending and thought that was it, but I'm satisfied now with the third ending. Just want to know if any of the other endings are worth pursuing.

So was YoRha created by the machines to further advance the evolution of machines? Or did I misunderstand?

Seems kind of dumb that the creators of 9S need another android to periodically kill him before he learns too much. Couldn't they just make him so that he doesn't have the capability of finding out about YoRha?
>>
>>175110203
Did you play the final fight as both 9S and A2? Only after having played it as either character you get to the true ending.
>>
>>175110203
you can get the other two endings in 10 minutes by selecting the final chapter and choosing the othet character for the final battle
yorha was created by the android illuminati, I don't get why everyone is under the impression that they were made by the machines when the document they give you in-game specifically states that the androids developed yorha units with machine cores as a basis because they thought sending real androids to their deaths was inhumane

>>175110595
you're right, I can't wait for the next vaatividja
>>
>>175110203
Machines merely used YoRha to further their evolution by keeping androids around.
9s was a prototype of androids used to collect combat data for new generation of androids to come after YoRha, they can't afford to destroy something so advance that is capable of destroying any machine lifeforms just from hacks alone.
>>
>>175110203
Also is the Emil stuff worth pursuing?
>>
>>175110941
If you are a Nier fan, yes. If you don't really care or don't really know the lore involving Emil then you don't really have to bother, as it'll play 0 emotional role in your experience.
>>

Retards see info about the inbuilt backdoor in the Bunker. Retards see machines hacking the Bunker. Retards think the machines must have created the Bunker.

By the way, yesterday's hysteria about jp weight of the world and the original cover doesn't really make sense with recent findings. You can't talk to someone who knowingly isn't there. The cover theory also is quite an asspull.
Emil's weapon is also vague af and I highly doubt that 2B will wear her YoRHa uniform for 400 years.


Seems like chinese fag won't translate anything today as he will be watching smth instead. Not sure tho, google translate is shit.

Given the inconsistencies in 153's behaviour we found today, meaning and purpose of that post-E scene only becomes even more weird.

Like it happened prior to the game's events, that's why 153 is still a cold bitch instead of someone who is so expecting her friends to wake up it practices its speech for their awakening.

>>175115813
What's weird about that price is that the original Nier had similar DLC shortly after the game's release (much earlier than this one I believe), with colosseum styled battles with unlockable costumes, for about half the price of this one. Either SE is milking shit, or Taro and co might be hiding stuff. Or both.

The name of the DLC translates to 3 Colosseums, 3 Costumes, 1 Dream, then a date. I'm curious what that dream is.

>>
>>175115985
Japanese Weight of the World is a theme of ending B which is a gateway to a spiral of terrifying and sad events. I doubt it had any deeper meaning.

In fact, End of YoRHa combines them all in extremely inspiring way.

Mod named "Fix Automata Res" which originally fixed a bug the game had with fullscreen mode. Since then it's also added various performance settings (the main important one is global illumination, which the game still has ridiculously high even on low graphics settings by default. If you turn it a bit lower it can easily give you 50% more FPS.)
>>
>>175118289
in his case it probably won't help. i have a 1060 and turning it down doesn't change things at all, the same areas that had minor lag still have it.

something else causes a bottleneck for me, probably the cpu since i only have an i5 3330.

(TL note: whichever S.O.B. wrote this used a mixture of colloquial Japanese, run-on sentences, and kana instead of kanji that makes this difficult to parse for my limited business Japanese skills. Therefore, I make even less claims about the accuracy of this translation than usual.)

「君たちの名前は?」

Depends on what you think it means. Given that he's seeing another Yorha S-type identical to him, the only logical place for this to be occurring I can think of is in the gap between when A/B ends and C/D starts. After the Bunker is destroyed, they're probably not going to be manufacturing any more Yorha units.
