For me it is still up for pre-order, just checked. Are you talking about NA or EU store?

EU - I add to cart and when I try to check out it removes it saying I've asked for more units than are in stock.
Edit: Now it's working. Weird.

I was saddened when I imported a copy of Replicant for PS3, only to find out there were no English subtitles available. Automata is one of my favourite games from the past decade, so I can't wait to finally play this.

Dear Square Enix...I know its expensive, but I'm willing to pay but just make it available in retail stores or at very least amazon.

Just make sure you want it! I didn't see any actual pictures of all the components. That's a lot with new consoles coming out too.

The main thing I want is the OST, because I own both previous OSTs. But I think I'll just be buying that separately. OSTs are usually like $60. Game will be $60. So that's like $40 for the pin set, script books, and steel case.

I played on hard and I liked it even back in the day. It's not super polished, but it had a block counter, dodge roll, and the strikes felt like they had weight to it. Same with the magic.
It all looks much improved now though, and still looks like it has lots of weight in the hits.

But I cant deal with Square Enix store, if they make it available on EBgames or Amazon I will buy it in a heartbeat.

I just don't see that happening, from previous experience. Almost all the big CEs are exclusive on their store. Shipping is slow and expensive as well.
If you want to spend the money, they are usually pretty good. I thought the FFX HD, FFXIII-2, LR, Drakengard 3 CEs were all well made. The Drakengard one has a whole book with it.
I just don't need the giant boxes anymore. Main thing I want is the OST, so I'm cool just importing that to get a physical copy.

This is a remake of the first game in the Nier series. Automata was the second.
The mobile game is named Nier: Reincarnation.

I hope it will have an extra ending or something like that teasing a new original entry for the Drakengard/Nier series.

genuinely curious as to why? actual issue that has affected security of data stolen from site or more of a personal " i don't deal with publisher store fronts"
I ask because i just preordered it from Enix store and this is my first purchase from that store front

Im already having hard time getting Amazon delivering my games in time let alone SE store which usually known for delivering games super late and really just don’t trust that site.

I've gotten multiple CE from there. Never had an issue with stuff not showing up.
But you pay for shipping, and it's usually not immediately on release day. That's it. I think one time I got it on release day, usually 1-3 days after. Not the end of the world.
can't wait

Its basically gonna be like what we got in Automata.
With that being said, the west cover isn't so bad, in fact its pretty good.
Its much better than what we got with Automata....What the fuck were they thinking!?

Whatever they were thinking, it worked. The game sold super well. I say make another cover just like it. Just make it reversible and I'm good.

Honestly you are right, is really because west audience are more attracted to boring cover art?
What makes these two covers so unattractive to western audience?

I don't know, but they keep doing it. They must have some market research that says people just want the character model on the cover so they know what they're playing as. It's boring to me too.Honestly you are right, is really because west audience attracted to more boring cover art?

I think gamers in west have this obsession for characters needs to look "badass" in the cover regardless the context of the story.

this is a dream come true for me and so many people - thanks SE and Platinum.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
It's the best version by a mile. And there's specialk's FAR mod that fixes it to be far (ha) superior on top of that. It's basically similar to Dark Souls and how DSFix fixed it on top of it being the best version, just disappointing for what people expected from PC.
