There is a survey from the dev team here (in JP though). Asks about what you liked in Automata.
I am mostly content with everything I've played so far, but I asked for better pod program control scheme via shortcut buttons (something like KH magic) in the future, and even more variety in combat.

Are there any guides for finding certain items and chips?
Yeah, I have like 10 of those now...

^ Nothing more after that.
Offtopic, but couple of tracks from SINoALICE (mobile Yoko Taro game + Okabe music):

Ya, I'd like to throw some input as well. As much as I adore the game I think the difficulties + healing system was a bit outta whack. Think that's my only complaint about the game.
There's really no risk of losing your chips unless your dead set on never reloading. It isn't like dark souls where it saves on your death.
yeah I pretty much had that speech memorized

The boss is level
25
FWIW, I was level 36 there, so could tank a few hits.
Why does it have to be a mobile game? Why!?

Get Spear of the Usurper from Heritage of the Past quest. Note you'll encounter
high level enemies at the end, but can probably run from them.

Someone has messed up the weapons tab on that spreadsheet. God damn it >.<

From Route B onward, I would stick to level 3+ weapons. They're pretty easy to get in route A.

If someone can make mobage worth playing, it's Taro.

... Follow up question.
Just realized the enemies that were taking forever to kill were gold. I saw y'all talking about that but I didn't pay attention since I hadn't started B yet. What's the deal with those?

They're
just very strong enemies that drop rare materials when defeated, and have some minor world building to them. They have high defense and HP and are meant to be challenging to beat.

You'll still kill things in one or two hits.

Reset by helping a stranger.
Because mobile game makes shit ton of money.
So I'm working on getting all of the endings now (via chapter select). Is there any shame in using a guide? Some of these are insanely random (such as eating a mackerel), and I have Persona 5 releasing soon and I'm kind of hoping to get it all finished up (and Platinum'd) by that time.
Also, I just found out what the Dress Module does. I am glad for the existence of this thing.

To get all the endings? No, there most certainly isn't.

Just curious if I dedicated a weekend can I finish this? Between Horizon Zero Dawn, Nier and now P5 its killing me to want to sink into so many open world games.
Yeah, that's what I did. I couldn't put it down.
It'll take you between 20 and 40 hours to beat depending on wether you do sidequests or not
Yeah, for the endings.
I didn't use a guide for the main ones (A/B/C/D/E), but considering how obtuse some of the other ones are, I think I'll save myself the pain/agony of trying to find them for myself. It's not spoiling what the actual endings are though, so at least there's that.
You'd more or less have to critical path it and that would make you miss a great deal of the good stuff.

Sounds good. I don't have time to sink hundreds of hours into these things like I use too. I'll pick it up Friday and afternoon and just roll with.

And this is also true. I just wish every game didn't have to be open world lately.
You could try. It's an addictive game, you won't want to stop playing it, but whether you finish or not in-time depends on the amount of free-time you have.
I wouldn't personally rush through it, as this game is special and deserves to be savored. If you think you'll be hard-pressed to comfortably complete it before P5 hits, I'd recommend waiting until afterwards to play Nier Automata. It's worth the wait, trust me.

Just started playing yesterday and I find the open world to be boring and ugly as hell.
It's like the anti Zelda: BotW open world. No personality and atmosphere can't redeem how boring it is. But everything else is on point. Just got to

This game is great, but the open world is really holding it back imo.

Is there a trick to getting the high quality item merchant to spawn? I got him earlier, but I had to chapter hop for some stuff and now it refuses to work.
Ugh, why isn't this up in my country?
I'm tempted to get a physical copy instead, but none of my laptops/desktops have CD/DVD-drive anymore so I would end up getting a digital copy :/
Equip chips that increase your hp, I was lvl 70 and it took him 4 hits to kill me. This on normal though.
