The main character wears high heels, exposed chest, a skirt that shows her pants and ass 90% of the time and you refuse to buy it because of that?
Hello? Are you OK?
Partially joking. I'll get it one day, but I still don't like it that they put something like this in the game. It's just stupid.
Does it have HDR? Thought people tested it and it lacks a HDR color range.
I have no idea what quality the HDR is but yes, it definetely does support HDR, I played it myself.
I'm interested in this game, but the fan service perviness of the camera is a huge turnoff for me.
I was specifically correcting you on your statement about how well it did on Steam.
You might be better off doing some research prior to making statements like that.
Without delving into spoilers, I can say it will mostly not be a problem.
Ugh.
Again, nobody disputed that. To be frank I don't know how it did on PlayStation, nor do I care. But I do know it did very well on steam and was consistently in the top selling list for much of the 6 months after it launched.
You are the one making these statements so the onus is on you to back them up.
I've heard some mild spoilers that try and explain why it exists, but I found them to be largely unconvincing particularly when you consider the director basically said it's in there because of his tastes and fan service.
Even if I buy the explanations you're referencing it's still embarrassing to have my family see me play a game with that type of stuff.
I don't know. I might buy it one day, but it's ridiculous it's in there in the first place.
The air dodge reminds me of recore.
Nier is also mediocre as hell in combat, ngl.
I mean, that's on you and your family. My wife was sitting down with me when I started it up, she saw 2B jump out of the wrecked flight suit and made a comment about "Hee hee, I'm in here in my battle dress" and that was the end of it. After hearing her shut 9S shit down when he started asking questions she(My wife) was all about her(2B).
I mean... I did already buy Automato. Just if there's any kind of reference or callback in it to the previous game I don't want to be lost on them, you know?
Plus, I bought the damn game (Nier for 360), I should stop being a moron and freaking play the games I buy lol.
It's not required to play the first game, and it definitely isn't going to play as well as the sequel BUT!! I recommend playing it. I recommend getting all the endings, too. I'm not saying this for no reason, either. Take it from a huge fan of both games. Plus the music is godlike.
You don't really need to play the other games to enjoy Automata's story as it stands fine on its own. However, there are a few moments and callbacks that pack a bigger emotional punch if you're familiar with what came before. If the prospect of going through several hours worth of games is too much you can always check out Clemp's or ValkyrieAurora's retrospective videos on YouTube to get up to speed. Having said that, if you own the first Nier already I'd personally recommend playing it and getting all the endings yourself as it's a great game also on its own right.
I love when games counter expectations and buck trends. Great to see a game like this doing well on Xbox.
Higher minimum print run? What could that number be though? Hasn't LRG printed under 10,000 copies for every one of their physical games?
This article says 50,000 on Xbox and at the time of the article the largest they've done for playstation was 5,000.
Damn....that's a huge difference. In general though, 50,000 copies isn't a lot at all whatsoever. Really surprised that there's no physical copy of Nier for Xbox when the minimum is only 50,000 copies.
The sexualisation is there but a huge positive of it in this game is that the camera is never framed on purpose to exploit that and there are no creepy anime scenes. Yes, the characters are dressed the way they are but they're treated like they are in full body armour or something.
Great stuff, if this increases the chance of a sequel by any amount then excellent.
Game is sooooooo fucking good.
Game is sooooooo fucking good.
May as well ask in here: friend of mine has insisted that I play NieR first as it's integral to getting the most out of Automata, is that true? Since I heard that Automata is mostly standalone. I'd have to resurrect my PS3 for it and it's possible the game may be a bit dated now. On the other hand, there is the supposed great soundtrack to look forward too. Gut choice for me would be to jump into Automata immediately...
You don't need to play the first nier, but if you can there isn't much of a reason not to because its an amazing game
Glad to hear it's resonating with Xbox players. I want Nier to become a massive pillar in Square Enix's Future plans. Huge sales on all platforms would be great :)
And people doubted this port, lol. I'm glad it's doing so well.
