little girl hologram

WAIT THAT'S MANAH THAT'S TOTALLY MANAH
HERE WE GO. :/

Didn't the little girl have dark hair while Manah has like a blonde colour?

It's left censored because there are a multiple words that fit depending on perspective. Both as the player and 9S. It's left up to interpretation by the player, both as active participant and as observer.

Like a lot of things in this game, it's complicated and there's not a good singular answer.

Pretty much.

The reason it's a vague amalgamation of
love/kill/fuck is due to first the pleasure centers of androids being tailored to killing as well as the stuff Adam says around that line, about lies and his anger and hate rising. That Adam probably knows the truth about 2B killing 9S all the time and 9S retaining some of that, just as he retains some information or feelings each cycle

OST rips be floating around on the internet already (buy it, folks). The hacking tracks are so good.

Are there any differences to the game OST people have been uploading to youtube since the game came out? (other than supporting and owning it)

Seems about the same to me, length-wise anyway. It certainly does feel nicer to listen to the tracks with my computer and not through YouTube, though. And lossless rips of the song are always good.

The hacking tracks CD doesn't contain all the tracks in 8-bit, boo.

A2 or 9S. Is the one I choose the one I want to kill or fight as? I don't want to kill the wrong one....

The one you fight as. Choice doesn't matter, you have to do both if you want the final ending

But wait, who the hell are
those two girls when 2B "killed" 9S?

Edit: okay, I'll just play it :p

this is one thing thats fun about serialized stories versus complete stories. We could sit around and speculate at what will happen in the next episode or release, except so many of us have already completed the game. So if there is an answer, we know it.

I think the OST ships on the 29th. Mine hasn't shipped yet, though I bought the limited edition with some bonus tracks. I'm not going to listen to it much until I play the game!

Welp.........
My data has been deleted. I have tears on my face. I must replay this game soon. I can't describe the experience with this game. I think I was missing a couple things when everything was deleted. Whatever ending that is, and I also had A, B, C, and like 4 others. I think I was missing D and E though? Maybe Data Deletion was D?

D was
chil[D]hood's end. Pretty sure you got it if you were able to delete your save file.

I was disappointed too but I think the connections may go deeper than you think.
Even something simple like the Accord name drop is important. It means she is somewhere is the world probably taking data on the androids and machines.
We talked a little about it the spoiler thread. I posted this:

I'm trying to put the pieces together myself. One thing that really had me intrigued was a poster here on gaf translated some angelic script and the machines said " We are one. We are eternal. We are legion." Also another thing interesting to me is at the end of Route C the boss says, " We are network" I figured network to a machine is the equivalent as legion to a human. There is also the Cult of the Watchers symbol on Eve that is not explained. Another interesting thing is Red Girl having a twin and they look like Manah from Drakengard and One from Drakengard 3. One made a twin out of one of her ribs. Her twin would go on to start the Cult of the Watchers if I recall correctly.

I think I'm screwed and can't finish the game ...

I'm fighting this short haired robot guy. Everyone in the resistance camp is dead and I don't have any healing items left. And I don't have a save file before the mission started so there is no one around to sell some items. I'm literally screwed.

You can always drop down the difficulty.
If even that doesn't help or you're already playing on easy, you can activate the autochips to finish the game for you. Probably not the most satisfying solution tho.

Can you travel to the bunker? You can buy healing items there.

Play safe. Spam lasers and guns. When he summons the platforms hide under them and wait them to fall into a better position and dodge every salvo before going to the next.

Does upgrading all the weapons really take hours and hours of grinding for some weapons?
Click to expand...

Don't know if someone has answered this or not, but no you don't have to grind. Once at the very end of the game, you can buy every single material needed to uograde the weapons from various shops. Every single item. Just depends on how much money you have

Unless you need the money there and then, or about to hit the 99 cap, don't sell things. They sell for more later on. Machine Cores are 10k initially, but grow to be about 22k later

I finished the game yesterday and got the
A2 ending(?), where she says that she didn't realize how beautiful the world was and that was it.
.

Is that the actual ending, or are there any more? And I mean story related endings, not the random eat a fish and die-endings.

At least you have all that money to make you feel better :)

In my first playthrough of route A I somehow just never thought about selling stuff till towards the end and I instantly made like $700k.
Click to expand...

I did about the same thing haha. though my run was short so I had way less money for my stuff :)
Working my way through B, and I'm taking my time, doing the side quests I didn't the first time around :)
