[Hektor]

NieR: Automata is out babeeee

Some tips and answers for common questions regarding Automata

1. The tutorial area got no savepoints. Lower the difficulty if frustration arises.
2. There is no autosave. Save regularely.
3. The credits are not the end of the game.
4. Nothing in the game is permanently missable. Don't worry, just play.
5. All items that mention "Can be exchanged for money" are trash. Sell them.
6. All other items are not. Keep them.
7. You can change the difficulty at any time.
8. You'll know when you get the ability to unlock specific chests.
9. Fishing earns good money.
10. Quicktravel will be unlocked at some point in the story

I'm in desperate need to play something to help me decompress after work. Help me pick two games from my backlog to play concurrently (I usually like a combo as opposed to dedicating to only one game at a time).

1. Teslagrad
2. Mercenary Kings
3. Bionic Commando
4. Oxenfree
5. Galak-Z
6. Guacamelee
7. The Fall
8. Child of Light
9. Chroma Squad
10. Momodora III

I'm leaning toward Teslegrad and Galak-Z at the moment, although I'd like a balance of one mindless pick-up-and-play game with another more involved (possibly story-driven) game.

Honestly, what I really wanna play is just Hyper Light Drifter, but waiting for the next sale, lol.

 

[QFNS]

Anyone got a shot of the PC Graphics options on Neir? Still haven't seen one yet.

Between people decrypting the preload and people downloading the game, should still be a bit until we see that.

I'd recommend The Fall for the story driven part and maybe Galak-Z for the other.

 

[Dragon1893]

It worked, thanks
This will make up nicely for cancelling my Andromeda pre-order

I was looking for a voucher everywhere, and this worked! Thanks alot

You're welcome.

I really liked Oxenfree. Very light on the gameplay, the story is interesting and it doesn't overstay it's welcome.

Imo, Mercenary Kings is the most mindless of all those games but it's a deceptively long game. It took me around 25h to complete.

Oxenfree will fill that story driven need (I need to get back to it at some point).

Hyper Light Drifter is really good though, really good.

From your list, I'd probably do Guacamelee + Child of light.

Really though, you should get Momo 4.

Let me know how the PC version of Nier performs cause I am curious also if there are any graphics options.

 

[NeoRaider]

^ Not mine.

 

[Via Purifico]

Thanks, not bad.

 

[Hektor]

I've heard good things about the GTX108

Are we going to have a PC performance thread for Nier? And if so, do we have a title better than '2b or not 2b'?

I think oxenfree is better played through straight. Same with Momodora. Maybe play galak-z and the fall. Both can be broken up into 'stages' or 'puzzles' and theyre pretty different

 

[trailmix16]

Nier difficulty doesnt matter right?

 

[Hektor]

Nier difficulty doesnt matter right?

Doesn't matter and is chanagble whenever you want.

The tutorial area might be better off played on normal due to the missing savepoints

 

[Tizoc]

Nier difficulty doesnt matter right?

You start on normal
Then replay on higher difficulties

The Fall, you could just burn through it in one or two evenings.

Dayummm. Hope it's a better port than 1.
Will probably still buy it on ps4 though. That actually hit $20 bucks unlike the pc version.

21:9? Great work Platinum.

21:9? Great work Platinum.

A bit of a shame that it's still 60 fps hard-locked.

 

[Hektor]

Tabbign out makes the game go window mode.

Not a big deal but still annoying

RE7 had a similar issue. The port ran fine.
But for me, god help you if you try to close the game any other way than the main menu exit button.

 

[Axass]

Thanks for the welcome, I heard good things about Hollow Knight.

This is my profile.
http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198236814274/

Vazra invited me to the group already.



I actually enjoy both of those series, RPGs are my thing.

Hollow Knight is majestic, I actually put Zelda on hold a few weeks ago to finish it. It's that good. I'd say that as far as Metroidvanias go, it shits on Super Metroid from a great height*.


*exaggeration to drive my point across.

 

[SunDimension24]

There is currently 13,269 people In-Game for Nier right now. I wonder how much it will be later on.

 

[Hektor]

The game seems to be rendering at 900p internally and just upscales depending on your resolution settings.

;_;

 

[SoraNoKuni]

This thread is bad for me, emotionally and financially.
I hope I won't give in, the end is nier..

 

[Nzyme32]

Nier 21:9 works, though with stretched UI, and that can probably be fixed up

Here's a quick 21:9 shot. If you have an Nvidia card and are getting the wrong aspect ratio in fullscreen, go to your GPU settings and try changing your scaling to Fullscreen.

;_;

Full screen seems to be bugged, try windowed or mess with your gpu scaling.

 

[L.O.R.D]

IT'S HERE



http://store.steampowered.com/app/502800/

but this time the DLC is separated from the game,i guess i'll keep playing the PS4 version.

who need nier when you can have this?

 

[prudislav]

some new coollooking steampages

Coming in Summer, thx @lashman


Coming in APRIL


OUT NOW!

 

[Tonton]

Arbitrary resolution?
Is this Platinum's best port yet?

I need to see some 750 ti performance >.>

 

[Hektor]

Full screen seems to be bugged, try windowed or mess with your gpu scaling.

Indeed the game renders at 1080p in window mode. Guess that'll be fixed soon then.

2K weekend Steam sale... man, Borderlands 2 GOTY keeps getting just 75% off, it's been that like since Borderlands 1 released

 

[JarrodL]

All the right lessons from the ME3 PR nightmare have been learnt, I see.

I don't get it ... why would you say something like this ? The interview is nearly a year old, but I doubt their animations were somehow magically better looking at that stage.

75% is the de facto ceiling when it comes to back catalogue titles from larger publishers.

True, but for a 5 year old game (4 year for the GOTY) a base price of €44,99 seems kinda on the high side. I doubt Borderlands 2 is still selling that much for them to keep the price intact.
