Yoshida is a thigh man.yes yesI talked with Akihiko Yoshida about the design, asking him to create something that people would enjoy cosplaying. In retrospect, I think he really enjoys creating characters that show off a bit of thigh.
I still don't understand how this is possible after Nier ending.This is the same world as the original NieR? Just the time period is different?
Yoko: Yes, thats right. Same world, different time.
I still don't understand how this is possible after Nier ending.
...because the obvious, natural response would be utter revulsion?
Isla is pretty young, we try not to sexualize her.
It would be the first time to have a story heavy Platinum game, right? At least I hope they don't cut down on it.Yoko: Platinum Games makes some of the best games, please try not to expect too much from my settings and stories. Boys who expect to much will soon wither, no? So…..don’t do it.
I really like how humble he is. <3

she can do whatever she wants.
The ol' Sailor Moon excuse.Saito: "Stop it, it's only white leotard under the skirt."
Fuckin' Yoshida.Saito: I talked with Akihiko Yoshida about the design, asking him to “create something that people would enjoy cosplaying.” In retrospect, I think he really enjoys creating characters that show off a bit of thigh.

Ugh.
The ol' Sailor Moon excuse.
Fuckin' Yoshida.
-Platinum games is working so you will be able to ride the Boar
I'm sure this virtual/fictional character doesn't possess free will, but instead is something determined and designed by a bunch of guys. In this regard, the ones in charge presumably wanted to make the visual damage indicator of her character show off her crotch and ass to the player.
And I wonder why would they want that?
I really liked the answer Saito gave in that German gaffer's question in his interview when he was asked how he convinced Square to let him make a game with a director whose games do not sell with a developer whose games don't sell. That he just used his success with the Dragon Quest franchise to let him do passion projects.
So probably Square doesn't have a lot of faith in the game either way but they let Saito dick around for a while as thanks.
Fuckin' Yoshida.
Aw shiet, what if she's like a T-800 inside, that'd be pretty cool.
Yoshida is a thigh man.
The outlining silhouette of the android character appears female. Would this be accurate to say?
Saito: Yes Shes a female-type model android.
Yoko: Its a secret.
Saito: (haha). Speaking of which, some have been suggesting that she might be a hermaphrodite.
Yoko: Its a secret (haha).
I must admit it's super refreshing to see someone just say "I created her this way because I'm a thigh man and her costume looks hot"
Rather than "It's the traditional battle attire of the Yorha androids, her skirt is for ease of movement and the chest window is a way of letting off steam"
Oh please, you know exactly what it appeals toQ: Why did you guys make her a female?
Yoko: Because I like girls.
Akihiko Yoshida asked for a costume thatd be easy to cosplay.
I love that he gives no fucks and answers bluntly. I really wish we had more people like this man in the industry. Create what you want, it doesn't need to appeal to everyone.

What the fuck? So you're the post police now? Are you going around judging people?Whoah you are barking up a weird tree. Dude, just say you like his answer and leave it at that. Go to far and you get into GG territory and thats not fine,
To him?Oh please, you know exactly what it appeals to
Whoah you are barking up a weird tree.
What the fuck? So you're the post police now? Are you going around judging people?
Please don't do this.
People have been creating what they want that doesn't appeal to everyone for the longest time. People have been putting sexy stuff in games for the longest with little to no explination, platinum is working on this game. That has been video games, every time some one brings that up, its always in relation some under represented group in gaming possibly complaining. The very statement dude is making , the fact that he can make that statement means, means for the longest folks have been making the games they wanna make, why even mention it? Shit reads as purposefully antagonistic. Maybe I went too far with the GG thing, but it reads as that same like of " fighting the good fight against SJW" bullshit.

LolTo him?
I think he mentions it because fan service (specifically geared towards males) is being constantly criticized and opposed. It's a difficult time to be discussing video games atm, it's either you 100% agree with politically correct people or you're placed in the same ranks as a misogynistic ass wipe. Which in my opinion isn't fair.
Sarcasm?I can't believe a Yoko Taro game includes weird stuff like this smh tbh
I'm not really into the whole fan-service thing, so I'm a bit sad. But I hope it sells well, so we can get another Nier game. I always regretted never being able to play the original.![]()
