Some of the enemies they claim I need to kill like Small Stubby: Shield-equipped I know for a fact I've killed. I don't even know how you could finish the game without it.
I'm only doing this dumb quest because I don't want to farm elaborate gadgets.

You just have to find and kill new enemy types you haven't seen before. I gave up on the quest because I couldn't be bothered to re-load areas over and over again to make them spawn.

Depending on how many you need, you could get a couple from the hacking arcade game.
Just set the game to easy and use the auto chips to beat most of the levels automatically (you'll still need to manually intervene sometimes because the AI can't handle obstacles).
Quoting myself:
It is most definitely worth it.
The arenas are fun and all distinct, and the final rank in each arena offers the only legitimate challenge in the entire game (aside from very hard mode) and actually forces you to make the very most out of every mechanic the game offers.
The costumes are great if you've played NieR, there are lots of other little cosmetic things you can get, and the added story stuff is fun and quite different than the rest of the game.

Having played the DLC I can't imagine going through the whole game without getting it. It's pretty much mandatory IMO. And it includes some
pretty crazy, off-the-wall shit if you're into that, which you probably are if you've made it this far.
Stuck on the big shmup part after you shoot the big thing at sea in the mouth(still on the first route I guess,it says W,I am level 21)...on the last section I seem to lose speed and I can hardly move to avoid the bubbles and keep dying...what am I missing here....?
And earlier you guys said you didnt use automatic for skills but do you use optimize...? not exactly sure still about the whole screen for the skills and the active rectangle at the right in the menu...

Thanks for the reply! I bought it. Going to boot it up tomorrow, I like a good challenge.
I don't recall doing anything specific, just tried my best not to get hit.
And yes I use Optimize, you should too.
Ok thanks...even my attack with R1 changed in that last part...I just closed the game after the cutscenes,hopefully I start right there when I try again later.
Just in case you didn't know, the game doesn't auto save.

Alright, I cheated and used you-know-what for the Platinum. Great game!
26 endings seems overkill and I spent so much time gathering materials/Reconnaissance Squad.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
Holy shit .. Route B beginning ..
so awesome.
I can't believe the game fucking recorded all my settings shenanigans lol.
Yeah that was great lol.
Phew,finally finished that Sea part...I was hitting a button that switched something in my firing mode in the frenzy and it was small lasers,not the L1 when you are in the mechs, but something else and that made me stop firing the regular lasers...loving the game but some stuff is a little annoying,the map for one is awful and sometimes the ennemies just dont show up in the red circles...
I literally said out loud "no fucking way" Little small details like this makes the game one of the greatest of all time IMO.

Does that mean they've selected minty's translation? That's what I hoped that would happen, since their translations had the best flow and reflected how the characters were localized. We're in for a treat, if true.
Cool robots don't look at explosions.
That's the funny thing about this game. I find that, the more time I spend with it, the better it gets.

This has probably been asked multiple times but since it's not in the OT FAQ I'll ask (route A ending query):
It asks whether to save following the credits. Am I supposed to or not to continue? Can't seem to find this basic information, all the results are about ending E (which partially spoiled me trying to find the answer...).
You should save yea

Thx. Edit: whatever. I'll just overwrite them as necessary.

Damn I wanted to buy this now that I'm done but the limited edition is gone... And the regular is out of stock on Amazon...
It seems like there are some distribution issues? Or I'm not looking at the right places (I live in france btw)

Nothing I hate any more then a game that doesnt give you back your items when you die and are sent back to the last save to redo it all over...I am out of restorative items now and have to try again something I died to even with all my stuff...probably done with this game.
Adam fight
Go to the Resistance camp and talk to Anemone.

I think
he sends you a one-time email the first time he spawns there, so if you suddenly get an unexpected email try going straight there.
Otherwise, just check the map and listen for him playing his music at double speed every time you load the overworld. Even then, there's a high chance he might be selling +6 chips instead.

Mmmm I want back to the camp to refill on items yes but Anemone just says what's up...what I mean to say is if I have 30 medium resto items and I use 15 during the fight but I die,when I am back at the save point to retry I now have 15 left,not 30 anymore,this is what I hate.
What I did was
find him (usually by the entrance to the desert) open the shop menu and then leave, after enough distance he starts driving again (he gets faster and faster)
I just wait til he reaches resistance camp and the stock changes.

What does talking to her do? Is there yet another mechanic I missed while playing the first time XD
Yea I know. I think if I recall correctly, you may have to talk to her before starting that battle, then she'll sell you shit.
After
the camp gets ruined by the robots attacking, and you find yourself in successive fights,
there is a point where you can go back to the camp, and Anemone will sell you curatives and what not. I didn't know that initially, so I struggled a bit during the Eve fight.

Thanks for the replies. Apparently you have to spawn on chapter 8 I assume because he finally sent the email. I went there and he's selling junk. But I'm doing better than I was 4 hours ago.

Trial 5 for 2B can go suck a dick.
Holy shit that one is hard.

You just switched pods...
You can easily circumvent the Dead Souls-like death mechanic by just reloading your last save. If you save regulary, you never have to worry about losing your chips.

I can't escape this game. I beat it over 2 months ago and yet all I've done since is watch streams of it almost daily, and a few days ago I decided to just replay the game, while watching streams.

Wut, you can use 9S? lol, I thought that place was for 2B only.
Going to try that then
Yes thanks,should of thought to try that instead of hitting continue,that helped a bit...also I still had scanner on for my Pod,switching to the bombs help plus I got lucky and repaired a level 40 that did some good damage during the last part of the fight...
