The white layer is artificial skin which is soft but I'm not sure if the black layer is. The black layer is at least pliable because she has creases on her wrists and insides of her elbows and knees.

Took this scan from the last thread.

>Q42 What's up with Eve's tattoo? Does it have anything to do with the last game? And why does only he have it? (*Extremely paraphrased translation)
>模様が入っていること自体は、人類の過去情報から学習し「人間を真似する」ために表示しています。また、その模様を表示することを指示したのはアダムです。イヴにとってその模様は兄の形見で、几帳面にその模様を維持していたのですが、暴走時にその形状を維持できなくなってしまいました。
>He has the pattern for the sake of imitating humans, taken from their past data. The one who told him to display the pattern was Adam. To Eve, it was his brother's memento, so he periodically maintained it, but was unable to continue doing so when he was behaving recklessly.

What does that even mean? He just painted it on himself or something and it magically shrinks and grows for no added combat value or story significance whatsoever? It's really just there because the character designer thought it was cool?

>>175136006
Mere human imitation.

>>175135839
Apologies if this has been answered a million times already, I'm avoiding as many spoilers as I can.

>>175135839
It's on the 4th hack. You overleveled.

>>175136756
Any way to fix this? Or am I going to have to replay the entire game

>>175136949
You can lower your level with the save editor in the OP.

>>175136949
Looks like you have to replay it, as there's no level scaling. I mean you could watch a video of it, it's nothing plot related, just a really cool easter egg.

>>175136949
You could try bumping it up to Very Hard, but I don't know if it it increases enemy health.

It's kind of shitty and forces you to skip sidequests so you don't go past level ~58. Why is she ten levels lower than the preceding three or so bosses anyway?

>>175136998
I guess I'll have to do that then, thanks.

>>175137030
>>175137217
Yeah it doesn't really make sense that she's such a low level, especially considering that losing all your chips isn't a thing anymore in C&D.

>>175134924
I don't think it's scummy. Nobody knows if you backed up but you so where is the harm?

>>175135597

Taro had a different mask before.

Do you ever sometimes wonder how many times 2B has taken 9S's virginity? Do you think when 9S gets redeployed after 2B kills him she begins to plan how and when she'll fuck this one for the first time? I wonder if she has jumped a 9S the second she first met him.

>>175146208
>thought you meant in the game
Disappointed...

>>175146413
I'm sure they can figure out something. Stands to reason that at some point she probably decided to see if she could make 9S really happy during his time before she killed him. She probably stopped though, since the whole murder thing just hurt both of them more when she did that.

>>175146208
Honestly, I don't care about sex. As soon as gynoids get above the threshold of the uncanny valley, I'll buy one just so someone can keep up my house and just be my friend.

>>175145856
Ok, I've seen that mask before but I hadn't played any of his games back then so I didn't know who it was. So he's always worn a mask?

I just need to spend some time away from the franchise before I jump back in.

So chinese fag still haven't translated 5th one?
I wonder why

>>175154267
It probably revealed that his fanfic wasn't canon

>>175154267
What did the 4th one reveal?

>>175155289
nothing really new.
But apparently, 9S didn't die after tower collapsed.

>>175155328
Oh cool, no big deal then.

So ending E is still fine unless he actually kills off a character, and that's what we're waiting to see from the translation?

>>175155474
check the end of the previous thread, there were a lot of discussions about it there

>>175145784
Someone is writing a fanfiction about how 2B fucked 9S every time before killing him and people requested the author to write about their first time. Im sure you will like it. It is callef System Reset on AO3

>>175155536
Missed that, thanks.

>>175146531
Again, read system reset, even one of the stories is about angry 9S fucking her really hard so she cant forget it and suffers more the next time. That is actually I can se him doing for revenge

>>175155474
So far the post-E scene seems to be standalone from the game narrative because it directly contradicts E ending, events of C route and even some of the other bonus materials.

>Pod 153 in post-E scene is a stone-cold bitch who calls 9S by his official designation (which she stopped doing on route C entirely) and offers to simply dispose of his body despite side material about her and 042 fishing clearly showing how much she wants to meet her friends again and even practices a speech for their awakening
>9S's cognitive data somehow ends up being deleted before he even boots up which means he does no conscious choice and it's a result of him doing something prior to E events, most likely sacrificing his own data original Nier's D ending-style
>in chapter 4 there's no mention of him dying too
>he also doesn't go with the Ark as there's a message about this in his memory
>everything about post-E also contradicts the fact Pods got all their memories in actual in-game E

Unless there's more details we miss, this feels like his original intent for ending E and can be safely ignored as even he says that actual in-game E is a happy ending.

>>175155941
I'll add:
>this sudden tweet by Yoko Taro: https://twitter.com/yokotaro/status/856445823005085696
>The very first sign of in-game E was personal data(consciousness) "leaking" into credits. Then 042 launching successful suicide attack to save this personal data. So 9S having none of it for "some reason" directly contradicts this.

I hope that for better or worse, Yui Ishikawa sings weight of the world in the concert.
The pain of tragedy is temporary. A unique rendition of a song will be with us forever.

>>175156270
Also people were thinking that it follows japanese Weight of the World, but that version is reserved for ending B where everything indeed goes to shit.

Actual theme of ending E is End of YoRHa which is extremely positive and inspiring in its entirety.

>>175156427
song theory as well as the cover one are extremely far-fetched and don't make sense with recent findings too.
It is highly unlikely that ending E will be changed or devaluated. At the moment nothing really points to this.

>>175156416
I'm not denying it would be a unique experience. I just want it to either not touch the unique experience of in-game E or straight reinforce it by assuming that it's indeed an unused route where Nines himself lived on after ending D and decided to sacrifice his data.

>>175156270
How does the tweet relate to the post-E scene? Google fails to translate it properly.

>>175156839
I will admit I got really upset when I first read the spoiler but I think we need to accept that whatever happens will happen and we are going to have to live with that.

>>175156902
well, it was made the same day "sad news" were leaked and the post he commented is like 3 weeks old.
Most likely Taro trolling with saying that he can't write such gentle stories. As his own usually ends with suffering.

>>175156902
He reposts a weeks old fanart and says that he wishes that he was able to write something as gentle as this.

It's mostly a commentary about his own recent side materials which reinforce a bond between 2B/9S even further. Their handholding is now canon, for example.

Stupid sexy machines

>>175157032
In taroverse everything that happens actually happens because lmao multiverse.

Which means entirety of possibilities after E also happened. As well as absolutely adorable endings like Just y[o]u and me.

>>175157114
>handholding is now canon
Wait what when ?!?!? Context??

>>175131620

>>175157256
that fact no one is denying.

Thing is, everything is usually foreshadowed and have a good reason. But with what we got so far, 5th story doesn't make much sense even with new 1-4stories context.


>>175157301
read previous thread

>>175157301
It's from side materials about 9S meeting "another" 9S for whatever reason.
They seem to have been enjoying themselves with 2B at some point and she was even smiling at him. It's unknown when it happens though.

Nah, people deleted their own saves, not his. That's the point of E we got. Someone needed to sacrifice something for something better to happen somewhere. Taro just allowed us to sacrifice ourselves instead.

9S also holds memories of him fishing with 2B for a day or them being pursued by a wild boar.
They had a shitton of cute moments like this probably, even though in the end it only harmed 2B more.

9S also refers to 2B as "Onee-chan" - "big sister" - in the first line of this text.

>>175157836
That's not surprising. He thought about her as a family member at first, he says this in ending D. It's obvious that his perspective changed a lot over the course of a game, especially when he tenderly touched her cheek in the Tower.

>>175157468
Second B is best

>>175157573
>>yfw people who actually deleted their savedata for some temporary good feels are responsible for 9s's death and 2b's suffering.

From Taro's interview(http://www.siliconera.com/2017/03/28/yoko-taro-speaks-varied-endings-meanings-nier-automata/):

>I believe that E was essentially the happy ending.
>I actually didn’t come up with the happy ending initially when creating and developing this game. I kind of left that off to the side for a very long time and continued to work on some of the other aspects of the game.
> I started thinking about what would be the most fitting ending for all of those characters, and that resulted in the E ending.

>It’s not something that I desired, but I believe, in the world of writing, the characters move toward that ending themselves, and they directed me to write toward that end. In the end, it’s probably what the characters had hoped for – what they would have desired.

>the moment where you have your last hope, they wanted to depict it so the system and everything was being destroyed. So, you’re breaking through that system and stepping outside to find the last hope.
>I was wondering if the game could also offer that kind of sentiment, so to speak.
>we wanted to make it so you’re destroying that data and reaching outside of that game world to find that bit of last hope.


So either it was all bullshit(highly unlikely) or this new ending won't be connected to the in-game E.

Just defeated Emil just outside his home after several addicting tries at lvl 79.
I couldn't figure out what to do when he started charging that orb, so I just decided to use a handful of my stat-boosting items (for the first time) and flail on him. Guess you're just not supposed to let him get to that point.

Why didn't they do this properly? They charge $15 for three costumes and don't even use the real body model for one of them?

>>175161071
money i guess. square probably didn't give them much while demanding an overpriced dlc, so they spent most of the funds on the ceo boss battle and reused everything else, like importing nier's models with a headswap, reusing debug area for the colloseum and doing a simple "go kill some enemies, faggot" quest line.

shit square enix.

>>175160902
You're probably right, but I've seen autists go into canon screeching often enough in other franchises that I'm curious. Weird thing to value whatever's considered "true" within made-up fiction than what's appealing, which is ultimately the point of said fiction to begin with.

>>175161071
They aren't really charging that amount just for the costumes, there are three entire arenas in there as well. I don't get why people seem to not count gameplay as content in a game. However, that costume shit is the worst. Either give me Kainé's body in her outfit with her bulge or 2B's body in Kainé's outfit with 2B's butt. What they did is just half-arsing it.

>>175161071
Funny, because their excuse for not making the three outfits wearable by all the characters is that they'd have to adjust them to fit the different models.

So why do the YoRhA dress like they do? Is not combat efficient clothing

>>175161543
they're propaganda units first and foremost, not combat specialists.

most of them do recon (2b and 9s especially. it's 9s's recon mission with 2b accompanying him), if they go into a pure combat situation they dress up in armor, like the 3 fugitives in 2b's quest or route c's all out attack.

>>175158316
>>175160545
No, because the entire thing is written from the perspective of 9S. See >>175085853
It would be strange for 9S to refer to himself through the story as if he were telling it - i.e. "turns to me", "I felt 2B's twitch through our linked arms", "I turned to look" - but then specifically where he refers to 2B as "older sister" to be written from the other guy's perspective? That just doesn't work.

>>175161920
Again, where is that from exactly? Because it's not in the strategy guide or the concert.

So it seems like 9S was infected all along during route C and there is no mentioning of 2B's corrupted hand. Hm..

>>175165059
When does this even happen?
Sounds like if he won a battle against A2 without getting killed by 2B's blade so his corruption spreads. He only got signs of corruption during his final battle with A2 after all, and at that point it obviously wasn't 80%.

Or is it just a completely disconnected thing created for a concert?

Their relationships are just a deep, pure love at that point. Which will obviously evolve given the chance they never had.

>>175165659
This story is supposed to expand on route C and what 9S was going through, so it is very much canon.

How the fuck did 2B manage to get up and not 9S. 2B was like 100% infected. God fucking dammit what is going on

by reading 4th story I got the impression that 9S slowly being corrupted even before attaching 2B's arm. Nothing about the arm it in the script btw.

No, what don't *you* understand? I'm asking about the two days claim. How do you claim it was posted two days before other leaks when that's simply untrue if you look at the previous general, and considering it was never posted on /vg/ before then?

The only thing Pods are saying in the game is that his psychological condition worsens to a point of a breakdown which makes much more sense.

>>175166423
2B also gave her memories to A2 which seems not to be an option for 9S


Also, pods fucking restored all of their memories anyway. And if 9S could self-reboot there then nothing is stopping him to wake up. Again. Well if he somehow survived and lost himself entirely to the virus then yeah, seems like a good asspul reason to me.

this. By the way, I think of my imaginary girlfriend as a family too.

We really need to wait for Taro's comments on concert script because so far trying to tie post-E to the lore we see in the game produces nothing but massive pointless asspulls.

>>175167010
this 4th story already sounds like a retcon to me desu.

Nothing like that is ever mentioned in story or side materials from what i remember. They could see black box signals of even the androids fucked up and hacked wide open by Simone.

>>175167329
If this shit directly contradicts the game events i honestly don't know what Taro is even thinking anymore.

>>175165059
"For the 4th story: 1st Scene: refenced the start of the game when 2B encounters 9S after the mini-boss fight. seems to be a 2B narrative on her meeting 9S then and her thoughts with 9S asking 2B if it would be ok if she wore a white flower on her hair
2nd Scene: narrative from 9S about meeting 2B, specifically during ingame when you first finished the factory and 2B thanked 9S for uploading their data. 9S noticed something on 2B's hand (which I guess is bandages or similar from the context) and they have some conversation over bleeding/vaccine
3rd Scene: narrative from pod042. Fairly sure this takes place when 9S is climbing the tower as it ends when 9S encounters the 2B clones zerg rush ingame. 9S thinks about the message 2B left in her flight unit at the flooded city.
From the 4th story alone, I cannot really determine when exactly does the 4th scene happens."

>>175167146
4th story i can buy as 2B was corrupted worse yet her personal data was recovered
5th? No way

>Pascal lives and wants to erase his memories
>9S is would rather die before deleting his memories
This made me kinda dislike Pascal even more while 9S went up by a huge margin

In the game 9S only starts losing memories during ending D and only because he was dying.
He also never gets an indication of corruption while 2B could barely walk around even at 30% of it, let alone kill entire armies of E models.
What shitty game are you playing here, Taro?

translator's comments translated too:
"See, I didn't lie. Only the first two stories were sweet right?" followed by him mentioning him shedding tears over the last 2 scenes and telling people not to spoil the last 2 scenes while sharing as he wanted readers to experience the content for themselves properly.
Then he brought up that he wish to summarise Yoko's interview and NieR-related developments. He hopes that everyone can have a greater understanding of Yoko as an individual through his games. He says that Yoko is a interesting person with a unique charm, not someone who does only focus on sabotaging people. And he hopes that people would support Yoko."

it is not even that much text to just include in docs/visual novel thing.

This looks like we got a different version of the plot in the game with a happy end and this script was really the original intention which was scrapped for some reason. Just like 9S consciousness.
I mean if it already goes against the in-game canon.

>>175169469

it is a standard practice for Taro tho.
And most likely because of a budget restriction.

>tfw when you love nier and automata and you love cute 2b9s art but you're also a semi-normie who gets laid relatively often

So every scene from this concert so far has been simply adding details to actual events from the game. Not adding alternate content, but simply expounding on existing content. Even scene 4 has specifically been said to be clarifying what they believed wasn't explained well enough in the game.

And yet people are trying to say scene 5 will just be alternate content, a separate non-game ending. But when literally everything so far has been confirmed to be or is just obviously in-game content, I see little reason to assume scene 5 will all of a sudden shift to non-game content.

The whole purpose of the concert recitals seems to be clarification of the story that is there already. So whatever we're going to get from it is most likely just the most complete version of the in-game story, like it or not, for better or for worse, etc...

>9S also refers to 2B as "Onee-chan" - "big sister" - in the first line of this text.

Translator here. I think that's probably not correct. If you analyze the text more closely it seems more likely that "Onee-chan" refers to an unidentified older female who asks 9S & 2B what their names are in the next line.

>And yet people are trying to say scene 5 will just be alternate content
Because it's bumblefuck retarded and straight goes against established events of the game or also contradicts some other new side materials.

It's also painfully predictable as it's basically a shittier D ending of original Nier with Nier not getting outright removed but just falling into possibly eternal sleep, it's in no way comparable to a glorious in-game E.

If Taro actually ends up ruining his own game, well, it's his right, but i will never take his words or works seriously again.

>>175173570
>Even scene 4 has specifically been said to be clarifying what they believed wasn't explained well enough in the game.
well may be it straight up contradicts ingame events? 9S wasn't corrupted before attaching 2B's hands and pods confirmed it multiple times by saying that he got mental damage.
And there is no mentioning of 2B's hand at all.

3 prequel stories are fine, but 4 and potentially 5th will most likely end up redefining what happened and not "expanding it"

>Because it's bumblefuck retarded

I mean I don't disagree if it's what we think it is, but we don't actually know for certain yet. Could actually turn out okay. Either way seems only two choices will just be to accept it as officially the story, or just purposefully ignore it and go into denial. But again, even that's just based off of current info, there's nothing to say Taro won't just say yeah only scene 5 is alternate. Would just be weird and doesn't look to be the case right now.

>>175174197
It doesn't make sense to me either, but they've specifically said that they wanted to do scene 4 because they felt like what really happened there wasn't explained well enough in-game.

>>175173726
Why would an older female use onee-chan with 2B? The other translators in the previous thread didn't mention her either.
