Thanks. One of the links had the names, but some descriptions were missing.
Looking forward to your work.

Here it is, just about every plug-in chip in the game each in their own category.
I've put in the max values for only a few so far, but I will add more to it later including enemy drops.

TFW you've not had enough coffee and book the day off work to collect your pre-order on the US release date...when you live in the UK.
Guess that will be my day to clear the Yakuza 0 backlog before Nier at the weekend...

Wow, awesome stuff man! Thanks so much!
Edit: Eventually, it would be a good idea to include the cost of each as well, so we can see how cost effective each upgrade is. I read something about synthesising and increasing ranks of chips, so their costs reduce? Be interesting to work out all the efficiencies.
Yeah I added a separate tab for the diamond symbol aka the minimum cost.

So, cost increases as rank increases? And that's because the chips are getting stronger? Is 6+ the max rank?
I think someone said it goes higher than 6 so I'll find out, but yeah cost goes up with rank to make up for the costs getting higher.
If you were to find a diamond +3 it should always be 7 cost.
here is cost variation for the chips. The lowest cost version will have a diamond mark on it
Thanks alot!

Okay, so we need Diamond +6 or +7 or whatever the max number is? Cool.
Edit: oh so Diamond +8 would have a cost of 21?
I spent way too much time figuring this out and it's not entirely random. The items he sells are based on where in the map you stop him. He sells the weapons if you stop him by the resistance camp. Although I couldn't seem to figure out why he would sometimes loop on a small path.

200 if you include the OS Chip.

When are the preorders for Nier 3 and that Nier remaster going live again?
According to google, OG Nier only sold around 70K in the first week, so that's pretty good i guess

How much space does OS chip take?
My fingers are dying. The input for the ground heavy attack in particular.
Yup. That's it, right there. The ass and the combos...what more could anyone want?
Exentryk
Member
Oh max storage is 128, but I meant the max inventory space for chips is 200.
OS Chip is 2 cost.
Exentryk
Member
Cool, so you can have 6 maxed out chips + the OS chip if you wanted. Hmm...
That's an excellent increase! Automata isn't even multi-platform to start like the first one was.

just listened AGAIn the whole soundtrack! (it's like my fifth time)
While it's still amazing, i realized that there's way less song that makes me teary-eyed in comparison to the first one! Am i the only one like this?
It doesn't mean it's bad, it's still a freaking amazing soundtrack that deserves to be placed to the top, but it doesn't have as much song that immedatly clicked with me or touched me! I dunno, maybe because the first was such an unique style that the second one isn't as surprising since it use the same?
Still, this didn't stop me from pre-ordering the soundtrack
Ones of my favourite is voice of no return and vague hope

Is that with one maxed out chip?
Also, what sort of HP does 2B have, and what sort of HP do enemies have on average?

Like D3, its fantastic but just different to niers. But i still really dig this OST and it was perfect for the game.
That is incredibly better than Bayonetta 2. Congratulations to Yoko and Platinum!

how much did Bayo 2 sell?
I don't have it on one chip, but if you put multiples of the same chip on you'll eventually get a message saying you hit the limit and it tells you what the limit is.
Levels and stats are shared since it's all based on your chips, and enemies scale with the story and difficulty so I'm guessing they would be taking way more hits on the harder modes.

Yeah i still place Nier as one of the best soundtrack ever composed, I have yet to find something better! Nier automata isn't at the same level, but it's still way better than D3 imo... D3 i liked only a few song, while i like almost all of nier automata....
and i like ALL of nier soundtrack, it's pretty rare coming from me!
Exentryk

Oh, that's nice of Platinum to mention the limits. Most devs won't bother with this stuff! I was hoping you could stack multiple of these counter chips to go beyond 250%, lol. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
The OST was great overall imo, but I didn't like how some tracks were overused.
As for comparison with previous Nier I can't really compare it since I didn't play the original Nier. But I did hear few tracks on youtube and I don't think there was anything in Automata that was as memorable as Kaine Salvation imo.

why don't you listen to the whole soundtrack of the first nier? DO IT, DO IT NOW! Or simply play the game
i recommend Snow in summer (the intro music), wretched automaton (love how this one evolve, especially when the singing kicks in), and emil sacrifice! And shadowlord if you want an epic one!

Nier ost were overused as well. Maybe you just don't remember. I think the music I heard the most was Hills of Radiant winds, temple of drifting Sands and wretched automatons.
Kinda resisting since I might get to play Nier one day. Now that Automata seems to be selling quite well at least in Japan, hopefully they release remaster of the original Nier, with option of both Replicant and Gestalt version, and Japanese voice as well.why don't you listen to the whole soundtrack of the first nier?

Like I said I didn't play the original Nier. I was comparing it to other games in general..

The original Nier overused the soundtrack so much in some cases, that I wanted to bang my head on the wall.
Especially that 10 second loop outside of the main town.

I wonder if Saito considers this to be "selling like hotcakes"?
Pls remaster/remake the original Nier you dream team you.

All you guys playing, did you get it from japanese storefront? Any writeup on how to get it? Would I need a separate japanese account for it?
