NieR: Automata Spoiler Thread

Though tbh, a lot of 2B/9S (namely 2B) cosplay tends to unnerve me a little. I dunno why, maybe I just don't like the blindfolds they use lol

I think most of the cosplay I've seen the Blindfolds have pulled in the same reaction I got from the characters design. Really impressed at the ability to pull that off

I finished all the main endings last night and have been reading this thread to soothe me down. I don't know where to start.

When I first played through route A, I thought to myself that this game is really good, easily my 2nd place for GOTY so far for me, 1st being Zelda.

Fast forward to route C. I cried like a child when I meet Pascal, with no memory, selling his friend's and children's parts and cores. To think when I started playing, reading OT thread and seeing people say they "bawled their eyes out", I really thought they were just being over dramatic. Funny how that turned out. And I really haven't cried at all during games since forever. The closest I got is misty eyes during The Witcher 3.

Finding King of the Forest, with a sole guard protecting him at the end was also fucking sad too. Man, I fucking hated A2 when I first met her and also myself. That changed completely after learning about her story though.

The plot twist that 2B has been killing 9S again and again did not surprise me since I kind of expected it since the end of Route A when she said "This keeps happening" or some sorts. Same with the extinction of human. Overall it's a very good plotline though. Nothing to criticize.

And then ending E. Holy shit. I kept dying at the Square Enix boss onwards, the first time I saw the messages, I was like what are these craps, then it hit me and that kept me trying over and over the whole night. I had one crash, but kept going still. Strange enough, I didn't feel any rage.

Alas, I got tired, and accepted the help offer. When the chorus hit, holy shit, motherfucking goosebumps. I chose to erase my saves and went to sleep.

Now to find a good sources to learn about the prequels and start 2nd playthough after.

Funny, I have never ever played a game again so soon afterwards, and this is after 61 hours to boot.

Btw, what is a good source to watch about the prequels? This guy Clemps series?

No way for you to play Nier for yourself? Seems like you would appreciate it. If not the Clemps vids are pretty good. Also make sure you check out Grimoire Nier for more info on the story. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vEP2iZ52P-DWhQBQ2Is6R8Wjao99AGi0YuWShTvA-tA/preview
 
Do we ever get to learn why A2 killed the baby Forest king? Or was that just motivated by the "destroy all robots" attitude?

Also, Emil's shop theme is my favourite RPG shop theme since the Junes theme. Can't listen to it without grinning.
Yasaiyoooooo! Yasaiyoooo!

This game motivated me to look up some Drakengard 1 stuff and goddamn that game is fucking weird and fucked up. Cannibalism, pedophilia, incest, lalalala lalalala, etc. I love it. I remember a cousin of mine had it when we were kids but we never got past the second stage due to the shit combat. It was too boring. The music that plays during the Queen Beast fight is some haunting shit too. It's so good.

Do you feel it?
The love for Drakengard rising inside?
A deep love?
A great love?
A love, powerful and formidable?
A LOVE THAT CRUSHES LIKE MACE?

lol I would love to cosplay as someone from Nier but my only options are 9S, Adam (amusing since that's my name) or Eve and while I'd be able to easily do 9S since we're probably the same height/body type, I don't want to, and Adam and Eve are WAY not my height or body type. Which would leave me crossplaying (which is fine, I do it all the time) except...most of the people I'd cosplay as I wouldn't be able to like 2B or Commander or A2.

...and there are no other male characters.

Damn.

Oh shit, thanks for the link, I skimmed through it, seems like some meaty and quality stuff.

And no sadly not. My x360 broke down long ago and I am on PC only now.

I just finished a lore summary on youtube and holy shit Emil.

This reminds me about one positive thing about Drakengard 2 beside the times Caim shows up to terrorize the main cast, namely the weapon stories. There were some really metal ones mixed in there. Like that games story for Glory's Bane.
 
By the way, "gravity powers" are mentioned a few times when talking about both the machines and the logic virus. Is this something that has come up previously in the Taroverse? It feels familiar, but I can't put my finger on it.
 
Something that bugs is that there is there are only 4 years between the first time YoRHa units gets deployed (Pearl Harbor mission) and the game's story, how the hell did they built all of that (the Bunker, the Commander, and the 2B/9S cycle multiple times) in such a small time? I mean, they got nine iterations of S models in 4 years, that's worse than Apple with iPhones lol

The Bunker and the Commander were active at the time of the Pearl Harbor drop, and there was even a previous generation of YoRHa androids(Seed from the stageplay).
 
Im rewatching Neon Genesis Evangelion right now.

I think this month I just want mind-fuck and feels but I would love a Taro/Anno Eva crossover game or some shit
 
Sapientas said:
Just got ending E and not sure what to make of it. Was expecting lots of answers and feels, but didn't get any of it. I guess I might be missing something and should do more sidequests (did only 40).

Though I never felt too strongly towards Nier's ending either, so maybe something's wrong with me.

For what it's worth, the italian version of the game has it

"You only think about how much you want to ******* WITH 2B"

Which means it's not something he wants to do to 2B, but with her.
And it's 7 asterisks, and only the italian for fuck (scopare) fits in there.

I know european translations are usually derivative of english, but it's too specific here so i'm sure they gave precise instructions to the translations, otherwise it would be gramatically wrong.

Giocare con 2B? Parlare ?

BTW what does it say the original japanese text?
Click to expand...

Too vague, those are out of the context of Adam's speech about lust and desire.

I can't seem to find any japanese walkthrough :/

I didn't want to fuck anyone in this game, am I weird?

I mean i obviously find 2B and all the females in this game very attractive and hell i'd gladly go with a similar looking one in real life, but in the context of the game i immediately turned off self destruction and never tried peeking under the skirt.

do you think the androids that created YoRHa were just really horny people?

Theres an early scene in the game where the machines are just lying in a desert pit trying to fuck and have kids, so im pretty sure the machines are really bothered by the human capacity for lust but without having boning methods

I already have news!
I've wrote to a friend who works in the same company where they did the italian translation and told her all about it, said she'll try to ask tomorrow.

Well i mean, if you're making artificial life, better make it as hot as possible.

beautiful yes, but hot? including the uniform? There's a sidequest that talks about that thirst waiting to be written.

if you give Father Servo scraps, he can do anything you want.
 
So is there anything to the voice changer? I figured there would be some sort of hidden dialogue that you need it enabled to hear, but I never found anything.
