Should I wait for a complete edition of Nier still or pull the trigger now?
Just pull the trigger now.
Just remember the story & music are great, the rest....ehhh.

Can't wait for the Nier Compilation sponsored by Coleman and Nissin.

- Nier was way above expectations and they'll be working to build it into a major franchise going forward
Who said anything about a AAA budget?
I dont understand why some of the posts in this thread is just assuming that Taro is inexplicably going to leave Nier or that SE is going to screw it up somehow. This is tremendously good news, there's literally nothing to be upset about.

I don't think a Gestalt remaster is ever happening. Too much effort.

GIven how different Automata already is to OG Nier i don't see that as much of a risk unless SE actively starts meddling with the creative direction.
In the worst case, he'll be making a game called "Nier: Drakengard" or "Nier: Saltmonster adventures".
All that research and demographic targeting paid off!
I'm sure Taro isn't gonna bail on finally having a financially stable careerI have this feeling that Yoko Taro may bail if they're treating this like a real IP. It's not, it's Taro's baby (a giant super fucking scary baby that came out from a portal on the sky)
Honestly, I'm kinda worried that they'll mess the IP if they gonna keep pumping NieRs, especially if they do direct sequels.

I guess you're right.
Funny how Nier ended up being bigger than Persona/Yakuza/Danganronpa
Multiplat release also paid off.
Wait, HAS Automata sold more than Persona? My friend literally just told me that Automata broke 2 million while the most recent reports show P5 at about 1.8 million.
on one hand i understand the fear that they could fuck it up by turning the franchise over to someone else. but on the other hand i think Square Enix realizes how instrumental Yoko Taro was to the game's success. not even necessarily the writing or game direction, but outside of the game he's really great at advertising
but it is shit square enix so who knows?

Thats the thing though. Nier games can be pretty much be anything he wants.I wonder if Yoko Taro is really happy about this. It wouldn't want it to become another Konami/Kojima situation when he will be "forced" to make Nier games.

Damn, good for them.
Especially for Plat. This gives them a title they can indefinitely work on.
I'm happy but also worried this might mean they'll try to put Nier in a direction that suits them better.

The heck?
The guy is over the moon at the game's success.
Zero chance he will bail.
Yeah that's true though Persona 5 may be higher now.
That and it didn't help that Atlus Japan threatened and blocked everyone who wanted to give it free exposure/good word of mouth through streams and lets play.Persona would be way higher if it was on steam like Nier.
It's more effort to re-dub the whole game in english for Replicant than just have 2 models IMO.
The game selling so well is excellent news. Really demonstrates there's still an appetite for genuinely good games with artistic merit. I'll keep the champagne in the cellar for now though. Square's shown they'll milk the very marrow from an IPs bones, and I'm not gonna take it for granted that Taro would work on everything they do. He probably won't.
Also lol @ people using a corporate quote to defend XV. How pitiful. It's still garbage lmao
Dang, i confused Gestalt and Replicant.
I'm a bad fan.
