Actual Yoko Taro quote about the game.
It's because the story is shit.
Yeah it should update with a screenshot of the code.
Sometimes its instant and other times it'll be like 15-30 minutes.

It's a quote from the director, Yoko Taro.
Quoting this for new page. This is kind of important.

I just went to 4chan. I hate myself now for spoiling.
Anyone knows if there are other cosmetics besides the machine mask and the pod dlc?

Now that this game is basically out. How likely is it that these will follow?

For Drakengard, highly unlikely. A NieR remaster is possible.

Nobody would want to play drakengard 1 unless it got a huge overhaul. It plays like a less functional Dynasty Warriors 2. Nier and D3 would be better picks since the hardware would probably help the games out.
Out in english in japan and in the Asia regions. So there isnt really a need for an import thread since the game is fully available in the english language.
Fuck reading the OT, right? It's not like it could possibly answer your question.

because it's already out in the east

This game is crazy, there are so many moments where it feels like there is a gameplay choice that can be made especially with all these
.
I live in constant fear that Yoko Taro will make me

non-hostile ennemies or non-hostile bosses (before you engage

I'll take the L here.
Was just concerned that it would give people who didn't try the demo the impression that it sucked.

If anything, I'd like to believe it gets more people to come in here and question why that's the OT, not just assume the game sucks and be on their merry way. I mean, I know it's the internet, but surely they have to perceive it being some sort of inside joke lol
I would like to ask about the combat:
-From what I know, there are four types of weapons; sword, greatsword, h2h, and spear. Given that there is L/H loadout and you can use the same type for combinations, you have (4x4=) 16 fairly unique load out types.
Has there been any variation in moveset within a particular weapon type, or are the differences purely numerics and visually?
-Many had already asked about enemy variety, which from what I understand is fairly similar in design, but there is a decent amount of difference in their movesets?, I would like to also ask if set-piece encounters are well done, as in if the environment is used well or if most forced encounters are in single level room with plenty of space.
Thank you.

Without spoilers, how is it?
Yes, different swords have some different movesets. At least those few that i own thus far. No idea about the other weapon types yet.
The enemy variety in terms of gameplay is definitely big, they all have different attacks and abilities.
But there is a fuckton of different enemy types, so there's often still some overleap between certain enemies of similar bodysize, but generally speaking, there's a lot of variety imho
Set piece fights are so and so.
Some are really just closed of circular arenas, but others are amazing
If you're curios to hear about one
One has you fighting enemies on a moving assembly line while machines of the factory are stomping down everywhere
But overall speaking, it's more arena than stuff like the on in the spoilertag, percentually speaking
If you mean wether it's robots the whole game, the answer is yes. Based on the first 16 hours.
16 hours in, it lives up to my extremely high expectations for the most part, that said, the story so far is one big mistery, it's hard to have an opinion about it where i'm at.

I've updated the FAQ to answer the questions about "Why is the OT already up?" as well as to point out the issue with the Digital version of the game.
For those who have not seen the notice yet:
IMPORTANT NOTE 2/23/17: ALLOW GAME TO FINISH DOWNLOADING BEFORE PLAYING.

So what do you need to do to get the other endings? Play the whole game again or some hours again or something completely different? How many hours to A?
Just curious, haven't played a Yoko Taro game outside of a bit of Nier 1, but that game looks great and I liked the demo. Story and OST were pretty great in Nier, but the gameplay wasn't , this game could pull it off und put everything together.

I wonder if by putting "First off, what's with the OT?" above the "What is Nier", we'd get less people asking about it lol
Thank you for the reply.
Ok, I keep hearing about this game (didn't even know it existed until reading Horizon threads).
As some one who likes RPGs of many different types ( for example every main game in the Fallout series yes including 4 but survival mode is what saved 4 for me, JRPGs, Persona, Horizon, Wasteland 2, xcom though I found it got too hard for me but I still enjoyed it, just couldn't finish it, Witcher 3, Witcher 2), likes some challenge to combat but sucks at games (especially ones that require good timing, my reflexes suck), likes good story but as long as the game is fun and the story is adequate I can be fine, do you think this game would be for me? Oh yeah and I'm a sucker for post apocalyse stories of all types (though I prefer it be due to something that humankind did to itself rather than random tragedy).
So far it looks interesting to me and I'm more leaning towards getting it once I'm done with Horizon (and maybe once I finish another playthrough of TLOU cause I'm starting to feel like I want to play that again but I can put that off cause the longer I wait to do that, the less I'll remember the story and I'd rather not remember it well when I replay it so it can be kinda newish to me).

This game is highly accessible even if you suck at games. I mean, its Easy Mode even gives you the option to equip yourself with chips that automatically attack and what not for you.
Have you tried the demo as of yet? By playing it, I'm pretty sure you'd know by the time you're done if it's for you or not.

no one reads the OP so it won't help.
Ah, I forgot it had a demo already, duh... that's how I found out that Dying light was very playable to me (it looked interesting but looked exactly like the kind of game I'd get frustrated with). I gotta get around to downloading that (maybe before I get sucked into Horizon, heh).
Please do, it doesn't take that long to beat, and honestly, it's pretty damn good.

I'm not sure if anyone has said this before in the thread but I think it's important:
The demo makes you really really powerful to show how great the action part can be when properly set up.
The real game however is MUCH more RPG. Your relative strength is determined by a good mix of your level, your weapon level and what chips you are using and how leveled up those chips are.
