>>179613875
2B is based on personality number 2 who is frankly speaking a giant crybaby. She also mentions in dialogue with 9S that doing courier job for resistance is preferable to dying on a battlefield and generally doesn't seem to like pointless violence at all.
Also:
>2B: Type-B models specialize in combat. We're a type of unit deployed to the front lines whenever an intense battle breaks out.
>2B: As a result, we feel nothing at the thought of throwing our lives away. That's ... just how we were created.
>2B: ... I wouldn't hesitate for even a moment to give my life in battle.
>2B: But ... After meeting, you, 9S ... I ...
>>
>>179614440
2B is indeed a crybaby. A2 got over it only because she was forced to survive and still was quite emotional by the end of the game under 2B's and Pod 042's influences.
But 2B cried like a million times in novels/concert/game.
>>
>>179614842
I think that A2 cried a lot after the death of her squad as well, it's just not shown.
>>
>>179617774
no doubts she did. But 3 years of being a lone survivor changed her quite a lot.
>>
>>179614842
Personality 2 is just awful at everything combat related unless there's intense emotional duress, and even then, they despise every second of it.

Makes me wonder why they never used it for an Operator or a Scanner instead

I'm playing the game for the second time.
The game kinda ended unexpecetly fast without any warnings. I was kinda trying to do all side missions etc before finishing the game but i didn't prepare for it to come that fast.
I'm happy the things have have been happening in my second run this far but it feels kinda bad if i have to do all the side missions that i did previously again. Like investing around 200k in the inventor robot. How does this part work?

no, route A is only ~1/3 of the game. Did you not read a huge ass SE PR message after credits?

no, you only do ones you haven't fully completed in route A. And there will be new quests too.

I got a friend who just finished Automata and said to me that he won't go deep into the lore because he's got enough of lore fagging with dark souls before.
As I haven't played souls games - how do they compare to Nier lore-wise?

Souls games are completely different as even with all in-game materials you only get a vague understanding of what the fuck is going on with multiple possible interpretations. Taro provided a fairly extensive and finished narrative in Automata alone, even without side materials.

Though Bloodborne's lore is fairly complete, especially with DLC. And the game has a few extremely powerful moments.

I just finished the game...and although I enjoyed it, anyone who says the story is anything more than a 5/10 needs to read more books. It's literally babby's first existentialism. I will admit the story concepts are well executed and there are great setpieces but if I have to read like 4 non in-game novellas and short stories and concert shit just to get the full story, I think something's wrong, even if it is a Taro thing. I don't mind there being side content, I just mind that so much of it isn't in-game.

Still an 8/10 game to me and probably the best game released this year so far, but I felt almost nothing for the characters. The world and atmosphere was great as a tangent from the original Nier though.

because it is not only about existentialism. It just that this theme looks smart enough for all reviewers to concentrate on it.

it is not "even" - it is his regular thing and you need to deal with it.

>Game is about finding the meaning of existence
>Not existentialism
I agree that the game isn't 100% about existentialism, a large part of it is the nature of consciousness, but I'd say the dominant theme is existential. Which is perfectly fine, I just found it to be treated in a fairly sophomoric and trite way.

>it is not "even" - it is his regular thing and you need to deal with it.
Okay, so it is, fair enough. Taro makes interesting games and concepts, but I think that the fact that he hides things in side content hurts the narrative of the game itself. Just because it's his thing doesn't make it good, I just think it needlessly obfuscates things. And I'd be totally okay with it if it was in-game. Morrowind is a perfect example of a game where you really had to delve into lore books to truly understand the narrative; but the difference is that those lore books are all available in the game itself. It doesn't help that I personally find the novellas, short stories, and concert scripts to be mediocre at best, at the very least in translation.

I don't hate the game or Taro at all, as I said in my original post I give the game an 8/10, I really enjoyed it and put 50+ hours into it. But I think the story was one of the weaker parts. It built a great sense of atmosphere and mystery in certain parts, only to be concluded in an unsatisfactory manner. I think certain stuff about the characters, like 2B and 9S's past relationship, ABSOLUTELY should've been included in the game. It would've been so much more impactful. Plus the lack of development for A2.

It's fine that you enjoyed it anon, I just have a different opinion.

Giving away more details about 2B/9S backstory before the final 2E reveal will only make it less impactful.
The only new thing in side materials was about the creation of YoRHa. Everything else was in some form available in the base game if you paid enough attention.
Inserting all this 2Bx9S fanservice into the game won't make the story any better.


>Plus the lack of development for A2.
There was a visual novel behind Anemony's terminal wich gave a good summary of YoRHa stage play. But I do agree that there wasn't enough of A2 playtime and her development was rushed.

Well, okay, here's a suffering comic. Poor little 2B needs a hug (and maybe that staunching gel wouldn't be a bad idea)...

>>179572782
Much as I would like to help out, that's 30+ pages of densely packed text. Even if I had the time to devote to it, /ndg/ would be long dead before someone as slow as me was done with it.

Aside from that, if there are still people who aren't convinced that 2B and 9S are the literal definition of soulmates, even a personal visit by Yoko Taro wouldn't do anything to change their minds.
>>
>>179641708
>30+ pages of densely packed text.
oh that explains a lot, don't even bother then.
Though could you at least look at the ending A/B scene as we got only a tldr of it and my dirty mind requires explanations? And if there is anything in the chapter where Adam captures 9S?
>>
>>179641497
I agree about the reveal. But I think the reveal could've been built up to in a better way. The relationship between 2B and 9S is never really questioned (I mean by the narrative, by the player of course it's different). I feel like there could've been a couple more snippets of dialogue or scenes that would've made you be like...huh, what's going on there, why are they so close? Then you have the 2E reveal, and then maybe a quick flash back or "novel" portion where a bit of their tragic history is revealed. It wouldn't have been hard, just a few adjustments. I don't think it would've been fanservice even, it just would've made more sense and developed their characters more since they're pretty much the only thing we have to latch onto. The 2E reveal evoked nothing in me, it was just like, k. Even just a little bit about it to give a bit more context would've been fine. I think that the narrative has a lot of great ideas but suffers from padding, pacing, and somewhat poor to mediocre writing. A few changes here and there would've easily brought the story from a 5/10 to a 7/10 in my eyes.

As for the other stuff...fair enough, I suppose I should've paid a bit more attention. Another thing about A2's development is her whole thing with 2B...I just think that leaving that revelation to side content takes all of the oomph out of it.

Basically, my whole complaint with Automata is that it doesn't stand on its own to the degree that the original NieR or Drakengard did. Maybe part of that is because it's the culmination of a lot of threads in the series, but I think the problems with Automata's narrative entirely lie in character development and not in worldbuilding. It just didn't have characters that excited you or endeared themselves to you like NieR. So while it's a very good game, it's narrative isn't up to the standard that Taro himself established.

prologue ending, ending A/B, 9S's reaction to 2B's death, her flight unit message and Gathering Keepsakes quest.

9S literally says about him being repeatedly killed in ending D monolog. Not hard to connect the dots from Amnesia, Wandering Couple and some other quests/events with 2E reveal. And there are also Virtuous Treaty/Cruel Blood oath weapon stories.

>is her whole thing with 2B
what are you talking about? The only thing we've learned from the concert script is that A2 killed both 2B and 9S before a couple of times - it doesn't add much to the story. 2B being based on A2 was also said in the game.

It's interesting to note that despite having weird as fuck open relationships IRL Sartre and Simone could fit the stereotype of soulmates as they carried their bond throughout their entire life and after Sartre's death Beauvoir lived her remaining years in a room overlooking his graveyard.

But it looks like Taro is fairly against open relationships given how much of a satire the in-game Sartre and Simone are.

Did anything ever explain what the "logic virus" was? I get the part where it makes androids (and machines) lose their reasoning, but what's with the "slowly turning into rust" thing with 9S in ending A/B and side materials? And why is there a "vaccine" for it? The virus is a computer program, so anything that can fight it should be a built-in antivirus program, not something to be injected when an android is down.

So does 2B know that she is actually "2E", is she just playing along through the whole game just for opportunities to kill 9S? And what is the point in the E types anyway if androids just re-download into another body, like 9S did several times?

While I agree mostly, that's not what stuck out about the story for the most part. I agree that I've heard it all before, blah blah consciousness, blah blah what does it even mean to exist blah blah if we just upload our memories and re-download them are we still the same person blah blah.

I mostly just thought it was cool how the separate stories interacted, and the order in which you got to play them for the story to unfold for you.

I think I had that or something similar sometimes. It was caused by the Steam overlay. I accidentally brought it up and some key that was pressed at that time got stuck and the game wouldn't recognize that I let it go. For me it went away when I restarted the game. If that doesn't help, try disabling the Steam overlay for this game, it might work.

Apparently there's a lot more to how it ties into Japanese culture that goes well beyond the cursory existential analysis that would be more readily understood outside Japan.

>I will admit the story concepts are well executed

Which is primarily why I liked it so much. The existentialist themes didn't really appeal to me in principle, but the absolute creativity in how the game structurally manipulates those themes is nonetheless really inspiring. I don't really understand the whole 'babby's first' argument people always want to make with stuff like this. Sure, I read Nietzsche and Camus when I was about 13, but I'm simply looking to appreciate the creativity in someone's (in this case Taro's) work, and I don't see how what books I have or haven't read before would factor into that at all.

by all accounts Emil should've killed my level 74 9S 50 times over, I had to spam healing items like a bitch while hitting him with light spear of the usurper attacks because there was no way I was gonna get a throw off with all these projectiles bouncing around and it's not like throws would've done any more damage to him anyways

I hear the next boss fight has different dialogue depending on who you fight him as so I regret that I can fight it with only one in four possible character variations

It makes sense, honestly, but unless it's ever confirmed, we can only ever guess at it. A lot of things do seem to fit, but maybe it's just stretching.

Honestly, I was hoping the hidden dialogue in the Emil fight for A2 would be him seeing something in her that reminded him of Kainé - even if it was just one line as he's dying, it would've been super nice to have it confirmed.

Kainé was always a sweetheart to him, so when A2 says her "We'll get you fixed up in no time, kid..." to him at the end, sounding all sad and caring, it just felt like it would've been the perfect moment for it. Oh well. Don't get me started on missed opportunities in this game..

Well, the main thing I have an issue with is the fight with Adam - they kind of went for a Metal Gear Rising Monsoon fight sorta feel, where he was taunting the hell out of Raiden and eventually got him to snap, you know? The 9S impaled on the wall reveal thing was supposed to be that moment for her.

Except... it fell flat on its face entirely, because 2B didn't get nearly mad enough outside of one outburst (that has no consequences in the actual fight). Since she has no relevant gameplay mechanic, there's nothing to make the fight different as a result of it. Again, to compare it to the Monsoon fight, when you push someone with even the best intentions too far, they snap - and Ripper Mode was a great addition to the feeling of that fight. I feel like almost everything about the Adam fight wasn't impactful.

Complaint: The sound design doesn't lend itself well to the fight, and it felt plain unsatisfying to hit him. Him having a shield, and having tiny little dinky sounds happen, or none at all, instead of a satisfying hit/slice sound was such a poor choice.
Missed opportunity: 2B has no gameplay mechanic like 9S or A2, so even a visual effect on screen, similar to what you see when you start casting a self destruct, saying something like her vitals are going into unsafe territory, would've been fine.

Complaint: 2B says nothing during combat the entire time she's fighting him.
Missed opportunity: You know how in Street Fighter IV, when you fought your rival, and they'd have all this back and forth taunting and banter if you hit them/they hit you? I feel like this is the one time 2B SHOULDN'T have been holding back emotions, and it would've been perfect to see her UNABLE to hold them back seeing someone doing that to her Nines.

>>179708246
Complaint: His death was WAY too clean and simple. Why?
Even A2 killing 21O was more brutal, and that was just making SURE she was dead. 2B is god damn 2E - we could have gotten to see her actually be good at executing someone other than someone she loved, where she holds back or does it as cleanly as possible. This should have been the one time she showed off that side of her, but we never get to see it, we only get to see her holding back even more, when we've already had almost a whole route's worth of that.

I just feel like this could have been a pivotal moment in showing off more facets of her character, and making you connect with her more - a lot of people I spoke to complained that even after the end of route C, they still didn't really understand why 9S loved her so much - and if you haven't read the side stories/concerts etc, it's really easy to understand why someone might feel that way. I personally shouldn't feel angrier at the big bad boss man than SHE does for impaling her totally-not-boyfriend - if anything, my emotions should be unable to match hers in their intensity.

Also, finally, I feel like the OST they went with didn't lend itself well to the fight - I loved the first phase of it, where it's still the Copied City theme, but "End of the Unknown" just doesn't have enough strength to it to carry the emotions that fight is supposed to make you feel. A good example of a fight that goes well with its OST is the fight in the factory in the dark, with Possessed by a Disease playing.

That's just one thing that frustrates me about this game.

I agree with everything you said. The fight did feel flat the first time I did it. I wish 2B was screaming (crying maybe) and finally letting her emotions go crazy after holding them in for a long time. Maybe Taro didn't think of that when developing the game. It would've been very nice too see, but it never happened.
>>
>>179708567
>This should have been the one time she showed off that side of her, but we never get to see it, we only get to see her holding back even more, when we've already had almost a whole route's worth of that.

I like that part the way it was. 2B is supposed to be a gentle android who is not fit to be an executioner model - seeing her rage kill someone wouldn't have felt right. I don't think 9S would have liked to see that either.
>>
>>179709329
I don't know about that... personality 2 is almost as much of a wildcard as 9 when pushed too far. I know she dislikes fighting, and she's a bad executioner model for being unable to do her job of killing 9S specifically (which is why she said she was a failure of an E-model, because she was so bad at killing HIM), but...

I think in this specific case, it would've been acceptable.
I do see your point though, both A2 and 2B hated pointless fighting, but this part doesn't feel pointless, to me, personally.
>>
>>179709538
I too mostly agree that there could be more violence and emotions involved.
But 2B still did a pretty violent fatality to Adam and her reaction to impaled 9S was with a noticeable anger.
Her going full rage mode this "early" in the game(only route A) would've been too revealing.
Also the ending with a subtle smile and 2B princes scarring 9S kind of shows that it was intentional and she almost broke there.

>>
>>179713278
>too poorly portrayed ingame
Side materials show her emotional breakdown during her execution orders and mostly before her promise.
In the game, she was portrayed as a deeply depressed girl on regular missions with "new" 9S, with her occasionally dropping her guard and letting emotions out. I don't see a problem here.
>>
>>179713896
Maybe I should play the game again and read the side materials (again) before playing

People who let emotions cloud their judgement during actual combat are the ones who get killed. 2B is a pro; review the scene in Memory Thorn where the machine lifeforms show up and she transforms from unsteady girl to murderbot instantaneously.

I agree that there are problems with the Copied City battle but that isn't one of them.

The side materials answer those questions, but yes, 2B has always know she was an E model, and no, she has not been looking for opportunities to kill 9S, she only does it upon order from command. While androids do store their data, they do not restore 9S to the version that knew whatever secrets he wasn't supposed to know, before he is assigned with 2B. She wouldn't do it if she didn't need to, she loves 9S, he's the most important thing to her, but for them to be together, she must keep killing him, since he is a very advanced model he always eventually discovers SS rank information, and must be terminated. She may have even killed herself, but 9S, during one mission where he discovered her true identity, made her promise to keep killing him, so that they could stay together.

I believe that in an effort to imitate humans more, androids would eventually develop a way for male and female android models to mate, females having a mobile android fabricator in place of a womb, and the male's semen delivering his own model and personality data to be compiled with the mother's and randomized to produce a child. The child would start out small, growing like a human as it receives the proper materials. The androids may even design their own obsolescence, where eventually each model will come to a point where they can no longer be repaired and their data cannot be recovered.

This right here. People seem to have this idea that blind furry makes people better fighters but the opposite is true, a cool head always wins the day. This is one of the reasons I like the English versions of 9S's "conform the death" speech because it hits the right balance between combat focused and audibly enraged. With 2B she was already pushing it and anything more would break her character IMO.

Yea that one. In the jap the final few lines are string together and spoken very quickly but in English there is this almost tranquil fury to his lines. You can see this difference through the animations which have a lot of jerkey head and neck motions while the English lines are spoken in a much slower and more deliberate fashion.

If you play Nier: Gestalt beforehand (or at least watch all the cutscenes on Youtube), Automata will have much more impact.

And, no, there's no PS3 or 360 emulator that will run Gestalt.

I really hope the success of Automata pushes them to try and port or remaster the older games to the PC in the next few years. It sucks that there's basically no way to play them outside of finding a console and a physical copy. The games alone are $35-60 dollars on Amazon.

What do you think guys, who is a better girl, 2B or White?

>>
>>179756341
It's mentioned in side materials that he doesn't trust White. And White herself is probably extremely wary of what 9S can do if he can't be controlled properly.

2B is a much better girl for 9S though i find the fact White tried to make amends at the last moment fairly interesting. Of course nothing will make those 3 years of 2B's suffering on a brink of insanity go away, but the fact she entrusted 9S the future of the entire kind by her own free will is extremely interesting.

Yoko Taro isn't done kicking you in the feels yet. Go here and start reading items 3, 4, and 9, in that order, and don't stop until you're done.

https://www.reddit.com/r/nier/wiki/lore#wiki_just_finished_ending_e.3F

All of them are from officially published works and are a canon part of the Drakengard / Nier universe.

>>179762656
I didn't opt to rescue other players, I couldn't bring myself to do it, but realizing that all the players who helped me at the end sacrificed all of their save data to do so was legitimately the most touching thing I have ever experienced in a game.

Then skip concert script 5 but read the other background stories. You owe it to yourself.

Personally, I don't think anybody really likes concert script 5; it's not referred to as "Yoko Taro's asspull" for nothing around /ndg/. It has spawned some beautiful art though.

Did Yoko Taro confirm that the concert script was actually the canonical ending to E? I got the impression it was him deciding to have a 3rd take on the Romeo and Juliet story in Automata, but this time in concert form instead of the machine play or the game. I find it hard to believe that if it really was the ending he wanted/intended he would have put it in a separate concert only conceived of after the game was released instead of in the game itself. I think it's a side/alternate story that he decided he wanted to tell that he thought would be appropriate for a concert about the game.
>>
>>179767412
>Did Yoko Taro confirm that the concert script was actually the canonical ending to E?

Well:

-Yoko Taro wrote it
-He hasn't said it's not canon or otherwise repudiated it.
-The other 4 concert scripts he wrote are treated as canon

Even though I don't particularly like its existence, I can't find a reason to say that it's not canon.
>>
>>179769696
"He wrote it" doesn't make it any more canon than the ending where 2B eats a mackerel fish and dies though, which he also hasn't said is or isn't the true ending to the game.

I mean, it's a good story and definitely has a place in the Nier universe as one of the stories that could or do happen within it, but it doesn't make any more sense for it to be the true ending after the whole "the future is your choice" thing than 2B choosing to eat a fish and dying in a desert.
>>
>>179770141
I think it's a tad disingenuous to compare the joke endings of the game to the concert scripts.

But, hey, Yoko Taro has also said that whatever players choose to believe occur happened after ending E is canon, so, really, we're all free to believe whatever we please.
>>
>>179771716
Yeah, what I meant to get across was that I don't think there is a "canon" beyond ending E besides what the players choose. Maybe the mackerel ending wasn't the best choice. The concert has a place as a story in the Nier universe, like
ending A where 9S dies and is uploaded to the machine network, but that doesn't make it the only/true/most-important story there. The concert's a good story, but I don't think it's consistent with the in-game endings and it makes more sense as just another story that he thought would be good to tell that happens to take place in the setting of the Nier universe.

I just finished reading 3, 4, and 9. The short stories are good, it was nice to read more about the prior interactions between 9S and 2B. The concert script was good too, it's sad but ultimately doesn't have a depressing ending butthe in-concert ending is a bit of an asspull like the other anon said. I mean, not that I mind. Although it's pretty cruel to hand out a script to the audience with a much more depressing ending than the one they actually had in the concert. Although maybe it's not such a huge asspull, given that we know that their black boxes are built from cores from the machines, which are capable of "evolving"
to some degree.


Finishing the game and going through all this has been emotionally exhausting.

>Finishing the game and going through all this has been emotionally exhausting.

Glad you enjoyed it as much as many of us here did.

The side benefit of having read concert script 5 is that you can enjoy some of the translated comics here like >>179456909 and >>179575039 that happen after the concert ending.
>>
>>179773474
You missed a lot of the emotional trauma anon.

The concert script released before the concert only contained the bad ending for the 5th script, and made everyone lose their shit for 2 weeks, agonizing over how our poor androids still suffered so. The fifth concert also didn't have 9S' VA on the list. And then during the actual concert, he showed up and played a completely different ending.

And yes, it's an asspull, but it's probably the one case where asspull is fitting. Their love transcends comprehension.

What are androids made of?
Why wasn't there any blood when 9S lost his arm and leg in the prologue?
What about their brains? I remember from the pearl harbor report Anemone says she put a bullet in 21's brain.
What exactly is a black box? I know about the cores and that they can be detonated but not much else.
Are machine cores organic? The machines are called bio-machines so a part of them must be biological. I assume it's the core because they are similar to plat seeds.

I noticed that when you hack A2 in the ending boss fight as 9S her blocks are set up in a weird pattern. Is there any meaning to this? It kind of looks like they're supposed to spell something out, and there's no real reason for them to be laid out like this since it doesn't block you, the objective, or the enemies.

Reminder that androids feel love and pleasure during combat

Well I've been purposely dodging spoilers for a while. Just got to route C/D.

One hour in and it's all gone to shit. Been bracing for Taro to punch me in the feels!gut but somehow it still got me pretty good.

reminder that it doesn't explicitly mention pleasure as sex-related, Jackass even call it romantic.
You know how humans react to sugar for example? Also old warriors literally loved combat - it might be the same thing with combat androids.
Doesn't mean that 9S loved stabbing 2B in soulbox.

Good grief, why you come within 100 miles of /ndg/ without having reached ending E? Leave and finish the game already.

There is something weird about 11B's and 16D's quest

When I told 16D that 11B planned to desert, she tells you how abusive she was towards her then she acts all smugly about it. But when you not tell her the truth, she tells you there was a romantic relationship between them, and she plans to convert herself into a battle unit. What the hell man?
>>
>>179811435
11B was abusive but they also had relationships.
Depending on your answer you make 16D emphasise one side of their relationships.

The E3 thing is just going to be a roasting hour for Yoko Taro and a Nier Replicant/Gestalt remaster (not a remake) announcement for the Playstation 4. No story-based DLC is planned, and even if they announce one, we won't see the fruits of their labor for another 9 months or so. Taro is not working with Platinum Games anymore. All of the planned DLC are just costumes and reskins for bullets.

Also, the concert will have a remix of three popular themes from both Nier and Automata. Don't get your hopes up, SE is only drumming up the hype train for marketing purposes. Another Nier game is in its planning phases, but no studio has picked it up yet.

Yoko Taro is now a walking brand for SE. They'll parade him around future conferences to generate interests in other SE games and cocktease future titles from him until whatever concept he's working on right now gets officially started.
In the words of SE investors, Yoko Taro is the Kojima of SE

The only good fanfics are the ones you write, the rest is full of futa-shit or out of character
>>
>>179814829
I don't agree with that, there's been a lot of damn good ones that are much better written than mine.

flowers for oper[a]tors comes to mind, and I hope she updates it soon.
>>
>>179815097
I think you are not aware of how you improved your writing, I am reading your fics since the first 2B9S one you uploaded and you changed a lot
>>179813358
Please let this be real
>>
>>179814250
Do you have a list of good ones? I was thinking of writing some on my own to scratch a few itches for cute 2B/9S romance.
>>
>>179815701
I was super rusty back then, I hadn't written in like 5+ years other than one or two Catherine fics

>>179815802
Return to Ash
flowers for oper[a]tors
Nier: Osculare
Penance
gentle em[B]race
Ad Hominem

I'm sure I've missed a few others, but those are my personal favourites on AO3
>>
>>179816670
+1 to Gentle em[B]race. Didnt like the others at all
>>
>>179817462
Damn, you're picky. Even if you didn't like the stories, did you at least think they were well written?

Is anyone familiar with the game crashing in the ''E'' ending just in the start of the twinstick shooter part? I can't progress further as it crashes on the exact same spot every time.
I have been playing for days and it sucks to face problems now.
>>
>>179818712
Yes, Penance, Ad Hominem and Return to Ash were well written, not sure about the rest cause I can't remember, to be honest I HATED Nier:Osculare. I am not lying I really think your fics are the best N:A ones on AO3, they are in character, you know a lot about the lore, and well written, plus I personally really like the story of all your fics even your 2BxKaine AU fic
>>
>>179819376
That's the one I want to work on next!! I loved writing it! Kainé a best

>>179819093
Yeah, I've seen a few people complain about that, but I never saw anyone post any fixes or anything like that, sorry friendo
>>
>>179818712
>>179819376
Oh and I forgot, I really liked System Reset by Mayofish even if it is just pure Smut, but I think 2B is a little OOC in there.
>>179819586
I just want to read a A2A4 fic by you
>>
>>179819826
A2A4 will take a while, I want to get the characterisations right.

System Reset was fun! 2B was OOC, sure, but to be honest it always felt more like "hey, imagine these two cuties doing cute things" than trying to adhere to canon anyway. Hope she updates more.

One of the things I really enjoy about this game is that don't actually force you to jump through meaningless hoops. There's no rewards for playing at a higher difficulty level or punishment for playing on a lower one, and they encourage you to play at a difficulty that makes the game enjoyable for you. There's never any push for achievements, and you can just buy the ones you want to 100% the game if you don't actually feel like doing them. I wish more games took their approach to difficulty and completion that this one did, where it's hard but never tries to insult you for playing it like some do.

Are android mouths warm and wet enough to be a breeding ground for bacteria?

Is 2B self-conscious enough about sanitation/hygiene to clean her mouth every now and then? (Probably not, I think I heard a line in game where she says she doesn't take baths)

>>179876608
Dogs having cleans mouths is a myth my dude. They're actually pretty disgusting.
>>
>>179877850
In one of the side quest (I think it was called animal care or something) they uncover a toothbrush and don't even know what that is. So we know they don't brush or don't have too.

Taro said that android skin is soft and warm so unless the skin it's self is emitting heat we can assume they are producing body warmth at least comparable to ours. They would also need to have saliva if they are able to eat foods like we do. So I guess the question is could an android bite get infected?

Yeah I did. Though, admittedly, I did rush some sidequests because I was dying to see how it all ends. I remember the deserters saying they didn't do anything and both 2b and 9s were clueless as well. Was it because it was 2b(e)'s job? Or due to the bunker server hack
>>
>>179887983
>What was the point of the robot carrying oil in 9s prologue?

Shows 9S is a racist and thinks that machines can't have families. Also I hear it's the same enemies you eventually fight in the Soul Box, which makes that sad scene even worse
>>
>>179887983
I don't know if you are looking for a deeper answer about the robot carrying oil... But he was simply trying to fix his brother by poring oil on him which obviously doesn't work.
I finished the game last night as well, and i already want to play again to just listen to all the good dialogues. It bothers me that the bonding between 9s and the operator wasnt build on further after we did the sidequests for her.

>Was it because it was 2b(e)'s job?

Yes. Deserting YorHa or even thinking about deserting is grounds for getting your ass fucking murdered. Also the dynamic changes when you learn the big twist, because now 2B is trying to urge 9S to stop thinking too hard about it and move on, because if he learns too much 2E has to kill him again

Another fun tidbit- there's another quest where one of the androids with you in the prologue planned to desert YorHa. In the prologue itself one of your squad members is another E unit.
>>
>>179877850
Maybe personality number 2 does not like baths, look at A2.
Don't worry anons after concert ending 9S will show 2B how to enjoy baths...

Holy fuck, just played through Pascal's Despair. This feel is too much.
>>
>>179889173
Alright thanks for clearing that up anon. Though has 2B always been aware of her E status or did she come to realize it only after killing those deserters/9s?
>>
>>179889729
Always. 2B's line after she kills 9S at the end of Route A/B is one of the earliest foreshadowings of their relationship and what she does for a living.
>>
>>179889672
I don't get why Pascal can't overcome what happened. Dying over suffering? I mean isn't Pascal very human-like with his emotions? Suffering is part of human life. I think if you spare him he kills himself, right?
>>
>>179889818
I never quite got that part to work for me.
She had to kill 9S in the end of A and B because 9S was infected. 9S was the one telling her to do it right?

Androids are too much like humans. I can take if they looked similar and also dressed and took mannerisms.

But then they can be strangled, so they breathe, their skin is warm, they can eat, take a shit, they have feelings they have to keep under control and whatnot.

At one point they're just humans with an asterisk:
*consciousness can go in another body after defeated in battle

Yoko Taro is a hack. A hack!

>>179889827
like every other machine, n2 included he's trapped by his own insanity/programming, doomed to repeat the same thing over and over, expecting different results but never achieving them.

>>
>>179890853
no matter what pointless info he could learn, he still couldn't overcome his base programming. if he could, he would learn from his mistakes and move on, but instead he chose the coward option, to be reset/die and be reset so he could return back to his happy times, not realizing that they will end in the exact same way again.

or would if things kept going the way they did. he was probably loaded onto the ark along with every other machine when n2 decided to fuck off, at least if you chose to kill him or leave him to an hero by himself.
>>
>>179890467
>Androids are too much like humans.
That's the entire point of Automata.
>>
>>179892019
but at a certain point it becomes self-defeating

for example, the fact necks are the weak spots of humans, why would they carry over to androids, making them also vulnerable to being strangled, isn't that an issue? At one point copying everything becomes impractical for their own purpose, that is to fight.
>>
>>179892335
infatuation. androids worship humans as gods. they wanted to be just like their gods, and of use to them.

trying to improve on the design their gods bestowed onto them could've been seen as a heresy.

which is probably why after nearly 10 thousand years the androids didn't change much. they gained some new abilities, possibly increased strength and such, but their designs remained extremely close to human, to the point you couldn't really tell 21st century androids like devpop and some 120th century androids like the yorha apart without prior knowledge.

NO! 2B and A2 are not for lewding other men.
>>
>>179901624
I hate when they use a random male model, 2B IS ONLY FOR 9S.
A2 is not for lewd (well maybe with A4)
>>
>>179902135
what about pascal

You want to xxxx 2B, don't you?

She says they don't NEED to take baths, so that's why she doesn't take them. I don't think her mouth would have any bacteria, or if it did it would be taken care of by whatever tiny nanomachines might make up the android equivalent of an immune system.
>>
>>179902626
She doesnt need baths because PODs takes care of androids hygiene, but they can take is they want/like. She is not dirty, pod 042 performs manteinance on and takes care of cleaning her body
>>
>>179889827
I think you're expecting Pascal to be more purely logical than they are. All of those children basically WERE his/her own kids and Pascal treated them as such, and now they're dead because of something Pascal taught them.

Always with A4 and 4S.

Did they ever explain why their eyes are covered in automata ? Or is this covered in a previous game? Does this mean that they just sense the enemy ?

Pretty much see no evil hear no evil. But it shows their HUD.
>>
>>179903758
The things that covers their eyes is a visor and it shows their hud, they can see without problems
>>
>>179904272
oh wow. I never realized this. Feels weird.
>>
>>179897398
anyone?
>>
>>179904332
It is explained in game, maybe you missed it
>>
>>179904593
I missed it as well, but came to that conclusion as well.
>>
>>179904835
>>179904593
third person here, also missed it, where is it said the blinder is a visor?
>>
>>179904915
Goggles, not visor.
The remove blindfold item is called camouflage goggles.
In the Pearl Harbor records Anemone states that the YoRHa androids are wearing goggles.

perhaps some kind of augmented reality visor?

like the terminator has those analysis interface shit
>>
>>179905497
pretty much. in yorha case the hud you see ingame is the augmented reality stuff they see. it monitors their status, damage, inventory, shows them relevant updates, shows them their location based on gps like map and so on.

>>179905045
Oh right, I remember reading that and thought it was a translation error. Thanks, anon.
