Visitant Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 I never played Nier, but that looked awesome Quote
The NZA Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 go play Nier soon as you can, its an absolute gem of a game. see all the endings! Quote
The NZA Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 What is Nier: Automata? The original Nier is a very unique action RPG that struck a chord with many passionate gamers when it came out five years ago. The story revolves around the main protagonist Nier as he searches for a cure for his daughter who is infected with the Black Scrawl virus, a seemingly incurable disease.To this day, gamers around the world still talk about Nier fondly and the soundtrack and design book are still selling so there’s clearly something special about it. If you haven’t played the original Nier, do try and track down a copy because it has one of the most memorable and emotional casts, stories, and music in recent memory. Nier: Automata is the next game in the Nier franchise and it’s a collaboration between Square Enix and PlatinumGames. You probably recognize PlatinumGames’ distinct action style in the gameplay trailer but if you look closely, you’ll be able to spot gameplay elements from the original Nier as well. It’s still an action RPG so don’t worry if you want more RPG mechanics in the game, they’re still there! Quote
The NZA Posted June 14, 2016 Posted June 14, 2016 Platinum + prolly the best OST of the gen, again...early 2017! Quote
Keth Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Man I tried playing the original Nier some time ago, and something was just off putting about it. I dunno if it was the environments, or the gameplay or what. I may need to give it another go though, cause that looks pretty damn sexy. I can probably find it cheap now yeah? To Amazon! Quote
The NZA Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 Nier is like c-tier adventure/hack & slash for the most part, with what felt like the lion's share of the budget thrown at one of last gen's finest OST's. think of it like most action RPG's - the combat's a vehicle for the plot, which in this particular instance, is actually pretty good, and takes some rather interesting turns along the way. better yet, the multiple endings show the full story from different perspectives & create something unlike other games i'd played...so you can imagine having said combat handled by what looks like Platinum's best makes this next one really exciting!

Keth Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 This is pretty damn great so far! My only complaint is that its just so drab. I wish there was more color in the world. Quote
The NZA Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 i know a game with a colorful world Nier was one of last gen's finest, i'm sleeping on this one right now but can't wait to get around to it Quote
Keth Posted September 4, 2017 Posted September 4, 2017 I need to get the other endings to this! That track is probably my favorite in the game. Quote
