Yes, all the main endings, plus a few of the silly ones.
Original NieR is going to be incredibly hard to go back to, considering how well this one controls and feels. There is a lot of tedium in how it moves, the slow ass block puzzles, having to do most of the same battles again and again, etc. It's all intentional for a first time run through, but if you've looked at a summary, I don't suggest going back to it.
As for Automata, even though Route B is mostly a retread, it feels different enough that it's not a hassle to play through. As for C onward, hold on to your butts.

March was nuts for releases but looking forward to April, doesn't really seem to clam down. Just more money to spend!

Reviews seem positive though. Looks like the best port from KT thus far.
With borderless gaming, the cutscenes at 30 fps is the only problem I'm seeing. I normally don't mind 30 fps, but going from 60 to 30 and back is really noticable.
Well, the big difference is that if they ever do remaster it and I try it again, at least this time I'll know what to expect. The first time around, I went in mostly blind based only on people's crazy high praise. None of them mentioned that the gameplay is kinda mediocre, so it turned me off of the game before I could get to the really interesting stuff. But yeah, having a competent studio like Platinum handle the development makes a hell of a difference in terms of gameplay quality.

So is NightCry worth playing for 12 bucks?

When was toukiden 2 on pcmsaid to be a bad port? I hadnt heard anything bad about it
Resolution capped, has no kbam controls. Supposed to have some issues on AMD cards or CPUs IIRC.
They aren't even 30 FPS, or at least not normal 30 FPS. They have a lot of judder to them that makes them frequently look like they are running around 20.

Been playing three games this week. Deadly Premonition, Hotline Miami, and Subnautica. All pretty great games. I'm currently quite addicted to Subnautica, and also somewhat terrified by it , too.
You can and most good Wii U exclusives already run perfectly or near perfectly at full speed and even at 4k and higher resolutions
Are audio issues fixed yet?
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
yay Facerig
No way... dont tell me they locked it to 1080p again... it's 60 fps though, right?
E: Apparently it is locked to 1080p. butwhy.gif
Depends on the game, because racing games depending on the day is my favorite genre of game. I literally start up old gta's and 5 just to race in them, I wish I had 5 on pc so i could race on line.
Some of em are ass though

Is it possible to miss out on any of the endings in Nier 2? Or is it easy enough to go back and get any I may miss?
Yooka Laylee
Full Throttle Remastered
Shovel Knight DLC
That's top of my head for me anyway, far more sedate than March!!
Still got Nonary Games and Dark Souls 3 DLC too this month D:
Ugh, I've been waiting forever for that to go less than 50% off >_<

Witcher 3 done, love it and the combat. I got the only real ending that connects to Ciri's personality in books, as she is a traveller by nature. Basically I played everything as close to Sapkowski's vision as I could, though book Geralt is more emotional due to no game constraints. I have to do Hearts of Stone and Blood and Wine now.
My personal headcanon is that the game franchise being non canon (according to Word of God) could mean that they are actually events taking place in an alternate world through time and space that book Ciri hasn't ever visited. It actually works out really well so I'll just choose to believe that.

But that stick has nothing but trash on it. Are you saying that SteamGAF prefers trash? Cause that's mean.
If you're still wanting a voucher, you could enter this silly little poll
https://www.greenmangaming.com/pt/clash-of-the-titles/best-celebrity-appearance/
5% voucher (that should be able to be used on mostly anything) after a few hours. I did round one, and got my voucher after about 4 hours, which I then used on NieR.

I don't really need a tag, but I figured I'd get one to make people jealous. Is it working?

I don't know what the limitations on it are, but I think I see custom 2D and 3D stuff in there?

You can probably find a generic asian guy and bloody him up some easy enough.

Ugh.
So that's actually not a price error?
I wonder if Asia will get the same deal later. I've sold my copy earlier this month and I'd be willing to rebuy at that price. We do have a similar offer right now though, a 12-month PSPlus and FFXV for Rp 570k ($43). PSPlus is normally Rp 350k ($26) so it's quite a deal, tbh.

not super into route b so far
i'm still playing it non stop so the world does have me hooked and i'm intrigued of what's in store next. route a ending left so much in the air i want to know more
not that many new cutscenes and 9s is less fun to play than 2b so going through all the million sidequests i didn't finish on route a this way kinda sucks. i want to see a2 and shit, not just play the same stuff again :/

Dont ever play jak 2 then
Croc 2 had a racing missiom early on which you can beat easily just by taking shortcuts
Ratchet '16's races are easily beaten long as you use shortcuts
I have a soft spot for crash 3's motorbike stage but the 2nd motorbike stage is arse :v

I must knowA good CPU is much more important than a good GPU for CEMU.
You can and most good Wii U exclusives already run perfectly or near perfectly at full speed and even at 4k and higher resolutions
Can i finally experience the greatness that is devil's third at a proper framerate?
I might go cop a us fopy of zelda bow in prepration for cemu running it properly this summer
Not even sure it's claimed yet, but the user is active here

Got it, at that price won't regret it even if I don't have time to play it before PC version.
Cutscenes are at 30fps.

Uh-oh, just finished desert area in Nier, and first boss kicked my ass on normal difficulty =/ I still don't understand how to evade attacks properly, sometimes doubletapping movement keys works, sometimes not. Shooting and aiming is complicated on keyboard too, hold shift+Q button to lock on enemies and trying to move at the same time doesn't help in intense battles. Not sure if this is input lag or just me. I'll try to reconfigure default control scheme later, but now i just lowered difficulty to easy and just buttonmashing through battles. I think i also missed tutorial messages about combos so i have no idea what i'm doing but combat looks great ¯\_(ツ_/¯
Also, i highly dislike that 9S guy. Don't know why but i always want to send him to farthest corner of the map and don't see him outside battles and cutscenes. I wish there was simple commands like "go there" or "don't stay so damn close". But outside 9S and problems with controls, game is definitely something special. I just hope there is no achievements for difficulty levels.

For me they run at 15 fps at max
Weird. I get 29.8 during them. Game runs at 45 fps. Pc is 6+ years old.

I see a lot complaints about Nier cutscenes, but they run fine for me, never noticed any stutter or slowdown. This game is so intense, i'm forgetting to look at FPS counter, which indicates that performance is fine on my rig. In the mean time, my eyes burns after every Dishonored 2 playthrough...

You're probably gonna want to play this one with a controller, especially if you're having issues with dodging. Also, don't be fooled by Platinum's involvement. Despite how it controls, this is very much an action RPG, not a character action game. There are no combos, unfortunately.

Nope, controllers are not my thing, i tried Xbox 360, PS4 and Steam controllers and still prefer to stick with my old logitech keyboard. And wait, there is no combos at all? But i swear i somehow throw robot to the air and then jumped and kicked his ass like in some DMC game. So, all those cool moves are completely random?
Edit: Yeah, i was talking about that stuff from Ascheroth GIF.
