/ndg/ - NieR/Drakengard General #96

Please, let's just get to #100. I made a commitment. I can't let go until I fulfil it.

where's the Nier port to PS4

>>180155641
Why not get a ps3?

>>180155741
get with the times, the ps3 is an old box

>>180155949
At least it has Nier, and other good games. Besides, who says I'm not with the times. I have a PS4.

From the "unexpectedly evil" department.

(This kind of characterization isn't my thing but I'd already finished the translation, so...)

There's any chance to get SINoALICE ported to murrica?

>>180156405
Its apparently really shit

Lets just hope for some good story translations

Is it safe to assume that the operator 6O confessed to was 21O? I feel like it has to be her since all the other operators were in love with other female members and the only other person besides 2B who loved a male was 21O. It's kinda hard to explain further but that's what I think.

>>180161739

Because between everything that is outright stated or merely implied, the game does a godly job building them up and then crushing you with revelations that force you to re-think their previous interactions.

There's also some extremely powerful dramatic moments here and there. The scene where 9S makes a makeshift grave for 2B was fucking soul-crushing.

>>180170709
The character intentions being slowly exposed little by little with each ending, it's like the game's story is an onion being peeled. Oh so that's a thing, oh that's why she said that.

I'm not familiar with mobages at all so bear with me, I heard yoko taro is writing a scenario for terra battle that is canon with drakengard and nier, are those scenarios usually time limited or what? Do they usually get translated or are they limited to japan?

>>180171289
but why we never got to experience A2s story with long hair

also A2 cutting her hair was too quick without experiencing it firsthand.. taro should've made a story with dedicated to this particular hair design.

Guys? Bing Translator says: Nier: Automata NOVEL.
WTF IS THIS?

Buying a PS4 today, could you help an anon out?
I love Metal Gear Rising, the Bayonetta games, and bullet hells.
Sounds like a match but I haven't played the first game.
I also heard it's combat isn't on par with Platinum's usual, is that true?

>>180177012
Fairly sure that it's something about collaboration between Automata and SINoALICE that was delayed initially

>>180177172
Yeah but just because it is Platinum Like Combat + RPG, so if you like actions RPG you will like it. There is a demo on PS4 and I had the same doubt as you, I played it and ended loving the system, so you should give it a try

>>180177012
>While talking about the episode behind the game main part, I will make each character's unknown feeling embarrassed.
Probably just a compilation of novels and concert scripts from side materials.

>>180177012
Each of the games has a novelization by Jun Eishima, I'm assuming it's the same thing, it's coming out august the 8th, or maybe that's when preorders start I can't remember

Was Pascal capable of overcoming the limitations of machines? Could he have learned from his bad experience and used his suffering as a springboard for his development as a human-like machine?

>>180177490
So that's just a novelization of the game's plot or what?

>>180177490
Oh man that sounds good as fuck, I have a lot of friends that dont like playing games but like reading novels
Besides maybe we get to know more about the characters.

>>180177490
Was first Nier's novelization ever translated?

Not sure if anyone will even try to translate over 300 pages of it.

>>180177738
Just interesting highlights would be enough.
Though it probably won't tell anything new over the main game and side mats.

>>180177598
Yeah but i think it will have a lot more things than the game.
>>180177738
Pfffff, I will pay someone to translate it you know, I REALLY want it

>>180177625
none of the novelizations were ever translated unfortunately

>>180177965
preorders will open aug 8 and it will most likely come out later.
/ndg/ will be long dead and no one will even bother translating it for free.
I could easily pay for a quality translation but I am not even sure there are good options to do so.

>>180177303
Alright I'll try it out.
Thanks!

Does anyone know if previous novelizations included all side materials in them or were covering only base games plots?

i just wanted to mention that i think it's really cute how toobie staggers when you make her run on uneven ground

>>180179708
you mean when you bump into bushes?

>>180179769
that too

>>180179087
They covered the game plots and added some details from the side materials plus some more in depth stuff, for example the drakengard one followed the A branch storyline but added details about manah or the kingdom of caerleon that are only in the side materials, plus dod1 also has a completely different novelization following the ending D path with new characters and slightly different storyline. The Nier novelization reprinted some of the side stories with parts of them censored (since it was bundled with a videogame), while the drakengard 3 one followed a different ending branch that actually connects to drakengard 1, plus some informations from the mangas and the short stories as well

>>180186595
well the unit data is in the game itself, the taro comment could have been mistranslated or misinterpreted for all we know (the "original emil is still aroubd" comment could be an invitation to try and find the secret bossfight for example)

Am I right or right

>>180148485
It sounds more complicated than it is. The only necessary plot points are in the game itself. Everything else is just lore stuff for people who might like to read more about the world the game takes place in.

The side stories from the guide/world book are just side stories that add more depth to the characters and world. The stage and concerts are just retellings of the same story, but the concert goes a bit beyond the ending E. The script not matching the live performance was deliberate, because it's based on the different endings the player can choose. Terra Battle is a different game entirely, it's just that Yoko Taro and some of the people who worked on Nier games will work on that as well and might toss in a few throwbacks to the other series. Whatever story it has isn't a part of Nier Automata's story.

>>180156365

Gee i wonder what will happen in Nier 3 if it will ever come out.

>>180156405
I kind of doubt it, but it looks like a generic card-battle mobage. I think it's just getting hyped up because of Taro's involvement.

>>180164832
There's nowhere near enough fan art of the Commander. Fuck, that body drives me crazy, man.

even commander has far more than n2. i mean, fuck, you know a character's rare/unpopular when you're pretty much the only one drawing lewds of it.

>>180183356
You neither lose nor gain anything by playing on any difficulty mode. Play on the one that's most enjoyable for you. You can always change difficulty later in the settings menu.

>>180191193
it was actually stated that the scenario taro will write for terra battle will actually be canonical to drakengard, nier etc
Though I don't understand how these phone games work at all, are the extra scenarios just limited time things that you can only play through once, do I select it from the chapter select screen, what? I downloaded it to try and make sense of it and I'm more confused than before. Though I guess they did say they are working on a console version so maybe that one will be more streamlined and understandable for an old retard like me, this "game as a service" thing never made sense to me and it never will

Wait a minute, if A2 managed to survive by her own all this time, got deteriorated and shit, while 9S and 2B were getting blown the fuck out here and there, needing a new body every now and then, does that mean A2 is the strongest android?

>>180195375
also how did A2 manage to survive the logic virus thing all by herself?

>>180195375
It means A2 is the weakest one, because her body is old and frail

How long has A2 been "disconnected" from YoRHa?

Also no, 2B and 9S got defeated while A2 managed to survive on her own, it seems to me she's stronger than them.

>>180195375
I just assumed she wasn't charging balls deep into the worst machine positions like 2B/9S did, only skirmishing and sneaking. The first time we actually see her seek out a goliath, its only because the pod was nagging her, and she ended up taking major damage.

>>180195375
I'd have to guess that having no resurrection get-outta-jail-free-card makes A2 a lot more careful and planning than the yorha duo.

>>180201417
4 years is a long time for any machine to have next to no maintenance. Especially for a weapon of war.

>>180198861
Her dress is velvet so it would be very soft.

What do the Nier outfits of A2 and 9S look like when they ripped from self-destruct/B-mode cancellation?

>>180195794
Nier Automata is the only game I've played where the in-game models are actually more attractive than all the fan art.

>>180203870
Not sure about A2 but 9S lose his pants (again...)

>>180201417
YoRHa units are intended to be discarded regularly so I don't think they made any effort to ensure a unit could last that long without maintenance.

Sounds like 9S's own fault he died.

She developed counter against a base version of 9S who always behaved in predictable pattern. 9S we know over the course of a game gained a massive shitload of experience both at hacking as he managed to fuck up even Eve from inside and physical combat. Judging by what bullshit he can pull against her even with his personality eroding in ending D, i doubt simply using old tricks would've saved her otherwise.

>>180206598
I think they have a system to prevent blood-loss, but, 9S was probably too corrupt by that time for it to work. Same for A2, assuming that 9S was hacking her during the fight

>>180209934
A2 is cool not cute!

>>180210762
Well as I said he would bring a good fight.

A2 learns through natural skill processing, despite 42 calling her cognitive deficit (joking, bullying), A2 still wins.

A2 has counters against 9S
This 9S ver hacking got upgraded. A2 gets a close call again. she Increases her counter again. B mode with her

9S is great scanner and one of the smartest androids, but it doesn't mean he can win against her. Also they are not enemies

Yorha existing and being linkable to the human server on the moon made it possible for the 'humanity is alive' lie to be uncovered. So the Android that created them made a plan to get rid of Yorha after they did their job so no evidence would remain.

>>180211785
If A2 has counters against 9S then how is it possible to hack her? Sure she is one of the harder hacks but it is definitely doable. Also pod 042 is the one to defeat N2, not A2. Additionally I would like to point to path D where 9S is being far more proactive in his attempted machine genocide then A2 ever was and consistantly came out on top even while suffering from a degenerative brain disease. I would say the two are at least matched when it comes to combat potential.

>>180206582
The black boxes were used because their exceptionally large power output. Their lack of fuel consumption isn't a designed feature it's just a side benefit.

>>180251904
also they were a part of their hated enemy, so using those instead of the default reactor and android ai for units who were supposed to be just tools (not even deserving names according to the play), and who ultimately became disposable was likely another reason they were used.

If Ark launches empty in C and 9S chooses to go with it... A2 actually kills 9S personal data there. welp.

>>180253095
Ending C is already the clearly inferior of the two so I may as well assume 9S chose the objectively worse option as well.

>>180253095
I don't think 9S dies before the ark launches though? He might commit sudoku after because 2B is still dead but by then the tower's destroyed

>>180255758
The current theory is that while A2 runs through 9S's mind he is networked with the machines and doing all the same stuff we see him do in ending D. If that is the case and he chose to upload himself to the arc A2 is essentially killing him.

>>180251616
Yeah I guess I can see that, 9s and a2 are like black and white. One capable of destroying the entire android race if they don't have counter materials enough, other can learn and adapt due the speciality of rogueness and counter.
Also shes not connected to yorha network so it must be the thing that released her full combat and learning potential. While 9S is a high end model.

>I would like to say the two are at least matched when it comes to combat potential
I'm still not quite agreeing.

>pod is the one who defeated N2
I never denied that though, but A2 saving 9S in her ending is all her doing.

Are there more DLC coming for this game?

I see they just announced terra battle 2 and terra battle world, could it be that one of those two is actually the new game by Taro instead of it being part of the first game? Any news in that regard?

>>180253254
>ending where A2 saves 9S and sacrifices herself to destroy the tower is worse than the ending where they kill themselves
how come

I went for A2 because I figured with the logic virus, 9S wasn't fully making sense

>no nier like Apocalypse yet in our world.
Depressing. Or being frozen as pre virus experiment and waking up in android era. Only a suicide is a cure for our event less world.

>>180257830
A2's sacrifice is utterly pointless at best and an outright tradgedy at worse. With 9S he gets to fulfill his goal of killing A2 and if you chose to stay, as you should, he dies happy with 2B at the forfront of his thoughts. That is a much happier ending than one where he creates a little memorial for him and 2B before killing himself. And that's assuming A2 even cures him which if she couldn't makes her sacrifice even more meaningless than it already is.

>>180257830
she missed the whole point. her actions were meaningless. sacrificing herself to save 9s, but it failed anyway, it's implied he was still infected by the virus afterwards in the concert. destroying the machines after they finally freed themselves from their irrational hatred caused by their programming, just because she couldn't overcome her own hatred for them.

road to hell is paved with good intentions.

>>180258346
but his entire schtick of fighting A2 was meaningless unto itself

A2's sacrifice was to destroy the building, the could've left after telling the Pod to save him, it was sweet to see how she went into "kill all machines" and that's her character into caring more about the Androids and trying to fix 9S

Fuck Taro and his concerts, A2 did her best trying to fix 9S

also since she left 9S at the mercy of the Pod, how come it can't fix 9S for that specific ending, but in Ending E they can fucking rebuilt all three Androids?

>>180258664
Do you really think 9S wouldn't just kill himself if he was resurrected without 2B? Besides the pods were to destroy all YoRHa related data after the death of all members was conformed so it's an all or nothing situation.

>>180258873
even the prodigal intellect of 9S couldn't see the Pods pulling what they have pulled in ending E

>>180258474
>she missed the whole point
>her actions were meaningless
Not when the network eradicated the village machines, they were literally harmless. A2 took that as a threat and killed them all

>>180258873
Come on man, 9s&2b is not everything you know. He probably try to find new goals, just like A2 did.

9S will most likely miss 2b but doesn't mean he have to kill himself for that. Also he WILL be grateful for A2

>>180259208
if there's one cycle they're stuck in, it's the cycle of revenge/violence. you do someone wrong. they take revenge. you take revenge. they take revenge. and it continues until one side commits the ultimate sin and destroys the other, all the while both sides suffer. that's really the only cycle that exists.

the machines escaped it, she didn't. that's why her actions are meaningless. they learned the truth of life, so did 9s in ending d. she failed.

>>180259208
You did hear all the times he explicitly stated a desire to end his life after the death of 2B right? I find it unlikely he would stop feeling that way were he to wake up with nothing else to do. And why would he be greatful to A2? As far as he knows she killed 2B, that's not something you just forgive someone for. Even if he was told I doubt he would be peticularly happy about not being dead given his express desire to die.

just because you're trying to do something you believe is good (murdering someone who did you wrong before, as questionable choice as this is) doesn't mean you aren't a colossal fuckup and your actions don't cause more harm than good.

will it bring pascal's village back? no. will it stop the war? no, because it already stopped, and in fact it may reignite it. all it does is satisfies her selfish ego.

>>180261468
>I read it, and I don't think he NEEDS her all the time
>if time goes by, then he realizes life is beautiful, just like A2 did

Boy, BOY. Please pay more attention to 9S, he practically stated ingame he was going to commit sudoku after killing A2. He cannot live without 2B

>>180260658
going by that reasoning all is futile in Automata's world so her reason is as good or as bad as 9S

>critically
I think you don't and can't even. Even though you just tried. Obviously A2 is not perfect, but you trying to make it sound like A2 is much worst than anyone else.

You said not all of the characters are ''perfect'', so tell me about 9S, think of him critically.

>>180261795
>he practically stated ingame he was going to commit sudoku after killing A2
Ah it was when you choose 9S. Well it was an entire different situation anyway

>>180262008
obsessed with 2b to the point of psychosis/yandere-ism. implied wanker. too easy to fall into extremes when 2b is gone, holding grudges that were obviously meaningless just because it's the only thing left to him.

>>180262130
Oh I see

I actually slightly agree, but A2 was in the right here

>>180262209
a2 was right when she killed 2b to save her from the logic virus. she wasn't when she destroyed the ark. but then again, she wasn't intelligent enough to realize what was going on with it, just reactionary, so no wonder.

>this pod has serious concerns about unit a2's cognitive abilities.

>>180262376
It's nothing to do with not being intelligent enough. 9S didn't know either until the machines literally told him what the purpose of the ark was.

She made the best decision based on what she knew.

>>180262085
No you fucking retarded it was when you do the sidequest gatering keepsakes

A2 did become a more caring Android though, she went from maybe I should kill this Pascal machine to worrying about the machine kids and shit. She could've just destroyed all of them but she got more caring.

>>180262474
which still doesn't deny the
>the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
saying.

is Ending E canon or is it just feelgood bullshit?

>>180264794
it is a confirmed true ending.

>>180264635
oh fuck off already kid

>>180265003
you need to learn how to let it go and move on. and stop denying reality. that saying is true, even the best intentions can cause shitstorm.

just look at neo-commies/progressives. do you think they do their shit because of some internal evil force compelling them to hate everyhing? nope. they do it because they believe they're doing the right thing.

that's what original nier was about too. all you need is the belief you're doing the right thing and some good intentions to commit a genocide without thinking.

as a2 did at the very end when she murdered all the machines because she was still prejudiced against them and didn't even stop to think or listen. even when she was right at the ark, and heard the laughing kids, possibly the very same kids from pascal's village, who after dying were moved onboard the ark alongside every other machine that died.

God damn it Anon2 you really fucked up this time.
I get that you like A2 but do you have to defend her so aggressively?
Can't you just accept that other people don't feel the same way as you?

I'm going to bed. I've always tried to be civil with you but if this thread is dead when I wake up I'll never forgive you.

What's your favorite tune from Automata's OST?

I guess mine is Goliath II https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCA1irE4wHU

What's the song that plays when 2B is corrupted, before she dies? That was pretty good too

Good morning, 96NDG.

Kuroko mobileposter, is that you?

why couldn't 9S forgive A2 for what she has done? Aren't androids supposed to emulate humans? Are they supposed to be negative stereotypes of human beings, who just butcher people who supposedly crossed them?

>>180270241
the tower is mine.

>>180270828
2B was just too important for him.
On top of that, personality number 9, despite its prodigious intellect, is also a bit fucked up in the head and prone to extreme violence.

>>180271663
so what? Some people can forgive killers of their own kids, even 9S wanted the investigate the androids before executing them during the story, including A2. Now he has zero curiosity and it's all MUH REVENGE, doesn't want even to hear that his dear waifu was fucking dead and rotten inside anyway, A2 just put her out of her misery

Even the way it was done was a clear indication 2B wanted it, she wasn't in a fight, she wanted to die rather than to turn "feral".

>>180270828
People in grieving aren't exactly the most forgiving sort. Speaking from personal experience even if there is nobody to blame for some such tradgedy it is all to easy to manufacture an outlet. 9S had every reason to assume that A2 killed 2B maliciously which would make forgiveness virtually unthinkable.

>>180271836
>Some people can forgive killers of their own kids
Not 9S.
>even 9S wanted the investigate the androids before executing them during the story
Strategy guide specifically mentions that he was so crushed with grief that he abandoned his own curious demeanour and just wanted to destroy everything around.
>was a clear indication 2B wanted it
Doesn't matter.

>>180271925
She was in that kneeling pose of sudoku, and smiled at him as she died, she wasn't in a brutal fight or anything like that

>>180272065
She was also barely capable of standing properly. Smiling at him just tells us of her thoughts about seeing 9S, nothing about A2's modivations for killing 2B.

>>180272315
she was in a position of submission, if she didn't want it that way she would've still held her sword and tried something, I thought 9S was supposed to be a smart Android, not suddenly drop is entire character for the sake of going edgelord for the last bits of the game

>>180272506
>I thought 9S was supposed to be a smart Android
he's also full of repressed violent emotions

So an edgelord right?

on the 3rd way through.

b2 crossed the bridge, was saved by a2, and then got stabbed to death.

was there a way to have b2 live? yes or no?

Are edgelords capable of selfless love?

Selfish right? and yes edgelords are selfish

A2 just didn't know better

>>180272762
where can I read about the 9S model's characteristic of repressed violence? He did a pretty job at hiding it given how civil he was compared to 2B who followed any elimination order, I know 2E her job and all that but he always was shown more compassionate of the two, or three if you want to count A2.

>>180273432
>selfless love
loving someone more than others and the other one just to spite on him/her right?

>>180273567

he was absolutely okay with dying for her or doing anything he could to make her feel better without any gain for himself

So much shitposting.

Man my soundtrack arrived and I can't help but remember not only how good the music was but how well it was used.

I remember when I gave the nuclear weapons manual to Pascal, Vague Hope starts playing, and as 2B walked away, he asks if his villagers would hate him if they were to suffer due to his refusal to commit violence.

Had to put down the controller and walk away for a bit. Such a simple scene was so strong due to the music.

>>180274245
It was probably the easiest boss fight, but the sense of scale it gave was incredible. Pascal taking control of it to stop the attacking waves of machines before finally beating the shit out of another giant machine felt epic, in the non-meme sense of the word.

would you gently pad O6's head?
