Honestly they way they wrote Kaine's dialogue in the English version was kinda cringey since I think Laura didn't deliver the cursing lines well, but I actually don't have a problem with anyone else.

NieR Automata GAMEPLAY FOOTAGE + 60fps confirmed
- Thread starter Windom Earle
- Start date
Idk, to me it comes off as forced, which works really well for the character considering what Kaine had to go though.

I dunno. I think it might be more fun to go in not knowing much if anything about it. They've been avoiding story spoilers for the most part thus far, why would they change that?

It's on xbox 360 too. The story is a bit different. Girl changes from sister to daughter. He is older and is the dad, etc. But game is basically the same I believe besides the character differences.

The difference you mention only exists in the japanese version, in the western world, both 360 and PS3 version are based upon the japanese 360 Version with Daddy-Nier,
Just arrived
can't wait to play it!
Enjoy it friend!
When people say it has a bad combat do they mean it's bad compared to Bayonetta or something? I mean from what I've played I can't say it's a great combat but it's not bad either. I was expecting Asscreed kinda bad lol.
it's kinda fun.
Oh I will
it's kinda fun.

Combat isn't bad at all. People like to exaggerate, but once you unlock some of the higher tier powers and combos, you'll be wrecking shit like there's no tomorrow. It can be surprisingly deep if you change up your style every so often and don't rely on the same moves over and over.
What did you think of the opening part of the game?

One of the best things about NieR Automata coming out is seeing new people pick up and play the original NieR. So many new people to discuss with!
It's not really outright bad, just janky, repetitive and poorly balanced. Compared to something like Drakengard, it's decent. Though it's still easy to see why the idea of someone like Platinum handling the sequel would be a cause to rejoice for so many.
I'm already confused.after I killed the monsters it said 1300 year later or something!! did I read that right? and the environment doesn't look as modern as the one in the beginning.
music is top notch.

I thought it was serviceable. The magic really makes it interesting for me. Its obviously not the best combat ever or anything, nor is it stand out, but i would not say it was terrible.
And yeah, your gonna be confused guy, just keep pushing and you'll eventually understand why this game is so praised.
lmao
YES.
Enjoy the ride.
I actually restarted my game after the prologue, thinking I must have read that wrong and it was actually 1300 before the intro, haha.
Kind of, except
they're alien robots taking over, forcing humans to go to the moon in order to survive.
Yes.
Not quite - the robots are the weaponry of an indeterminate set of alien invaders, which subjugated the earth and forced humanity to flee to the moon, from which they sent their own androids to combat the aliens' ones.

This is like a continuation/ successor from a different game/ setting where a giant from another world - at its death, ( I think!!! It's been so long), released a virus that wiped out humanity. The virus forced humans into a deal where they chose to enter a pact with the otherworldly god, becoming monsters, or turn to salt.
Humans separated their souls from their vessels. These vessels developed souls through their cycles of rebirth and the original souls develop problems as this happens and go rampant, called 'relapse' since their vessel rejects them. The relapse is tied directly to the vessel becoming self aware and have no control over what they have become.

The ones I've never heard of(after Nier's events) sound most interesting.
new info from interview. There are lots of contents so wait for full translation
some things from interview
-2B is one of the 3 main characters. But Saito says 'if you talk main character in traditional terms, there are 2' But Yoko insists there are 3.
-There are male type androids in the game as well
-Only androids participate in the battle to reclaim Earth. Humans don't get involved
-There are lots of unannounced weapons
-The flying thing in the trailer is called "Pot" It focuses on long-range attack so players can focus on close range attack
-pot speaks, but act more as navigation and doesn't have any feelings
-There is damage destruction on 2B's skirt. If you take certain amount of damage, it breaks. There is white leotard underneath
-The big enemy that was shown in the trailer is not a boss, but just one of bigger normal enemy. There are some really big enemies in the game
-Platinum games is working so you will be able to ride the Boar
-There are other animals like deer. You can probably ride them as well.
-Next time they release new info will be around Spring 2016.

I'm wondering if the 'third character' is just Pod, or whether it refers to something like a split personality (the original No. 2 within 2B, for example) or Tyrann in the first game.
So, is that referring to the boy who serves as the second protagonist? In any case, they should consider giving him clothing damage as well, if he ends up looking like the other Yorha models.

We're having a Let's Play NieR party if anybody wishes to chime in and share in the good times and sad.
