I've played it for a couple hours. I'm enjoying it quite a bit. Story seems like it's good so far, seems like it will get deeper as it goes on. The quests are basically me being everyone's bitch but so far it's addicting. Battles are basic but enough things you can do where it remains fun, at the least. Music is amazing.
Glad I got this, thanks gaf!

ahhaa I had a giant WTF is going on face, and then epic music began playing right off the bat. Good times.1stStrike said:What did you think of the beginning before you even got to the start menu? When I heard that I was just like "what the fuck... i already love this game" lol. Some people here hated it though

This game is amazing. That is all.
(I've been playing for two nights and I love it.)
Speaking of the OST, what's the best way to get it here in the US? Do I really have to import it on disc or can I legally download it somewhere?

i saw a few screenshots, read three lines and bought the game. i knew it would come out good, but not that good.
Neuromancer said:
You'll have to import it or as mentioned get it on itunes for a physical copy, unfortunately. Shipping is pretty quick if you choose a decent carrier though (you'll pay for it, however). I ordered the arrange album via fedex air and it was at my house in 3 days.
There are of course other means to obtain it, but I'd recommend supporting this game in whatever way possible since the soundtrack is well worth the money since all the songs are awesome (it's not like one of those albums with 2 good songs and 13 other shitty songs)

I hear there's a point of no return where I can't do any unfinished quests or something. I just got done going to
.
Should I start finishing off leftover sidequests now? I have mostly fishing to do.
Emil's mansion and getting the last sealed verse

Yeah, as you progress through the story you'll lose the ability to do quests. It'll let you know which quests are unfinshable as well. Personally, if you're dead set on actually doing all of them then I'd just get them all knocked out and then move on with teh story.
Also, the part you're at has a pretty epic end to it

Alright time to force myself to stop playing for the night. This game is crack.
Also I got past the fishing part a little while ago, lol I made such a stupid obvious mistake that I bet a lot of people made. I tried to fish where the guy gave me the rod rather than going to the red X where it's 100000 times easier to catch fish. Stupid me! Is that what joystiq did or are they that mentally challenged?

WHY DID THE GUY GIVE ME THE ROD AND LURE OVER THERE. That's my main beef, goddamn. I thought the red X was telling me where to go after I got the fish, or was a separate mission or something. I didn't think it was telling me where to fish. And then when I got there I was catching them like nobodies goddamn business.
I did catch a plant in the tough spot though! Put up more of a fight than a fish in the easy spot.

the problem with the fishing is that was poorly explained, I never paid any attention to reviews for this game as it wasn't ever on my radar, I struggled with fishing but didn't feel like checking online to figure it out so it took awhile for it to click. I just experimented with trial and error to figure out what I was doing wrong and eventually got it. I was focused on pulling the rod to either the left or right when most of the time you need to pull it back towards you to keep your "fish" from getting away

No. Well that freaking sucks. Knew I should have made another save.Gravijah said:
Yeah, I know they're supposed to show up on the fourth option but I haven't seen any in there yet. I have some other quest where I have to find material for some sailor who wants goat hides, rubber and some other crap and then another quest where the seafront tavern lady wants shark fins and some other stuff. Couldn't be bothered to do it right away since goats kept dropping meat and I figured I needed to fish more and I hate fishing.1stStrike said:Yeah, as you progress through the story you'll lose the ability to do quests.

Thank you! I loved the throw back to MUDS in that section of the game, but not everyone seems to appreciate all the reading involved
The song fits it perfectly too. "Grandma"
Neuromancer said:
I'd recommend "Shadowlord - Music Box Version", "The Legend of Nier - 8 Bit Heroes", "Kaine - Duct Version", and "Lost Androids Mixuxux" specifically. Those are my favorites on the arrange album

My brother was watching me play while reading and eventually put down his book at that part, he was so into it. I read the entire thing out loud, it was so awesome.

This game is sooo awesome. RPG of the year for me, if not GOTY (for 2010).
Wow, I sunk almost 70 hours into this game and I don't regret a single moment (well, maybe the fishing...)

Yeah... High five! It's definitely up there for me too, I don't think any other game this year had me that engaged.
But yeah... it's damn sad. Just everything. I can see this becoming a sort of personal classic for me. It's probably going to be something I pop in once every year or so for the fond memories.

Game arrived today. Tonight begins Nier.

Congrats. Enjoy the journey
Adam: It really leaves you feeling down, but it sends a message too. I just love how this game isn't so overly happy with everyone just being emo and shit all the time. People have real issues in Nier, some real fucked up issues, and they all act the only way they know how. I know it doesn't suit everyone's fancy, as a game, but I think that with the resources they had available, they were really able to nail the human spirit in this.
This ain't no Final Fantasy bullshit.
This is Nier.

Only just started, but my immediate impressions are that the game reminds me of a hybrid between Zelda and old school NES/SNES era RPG design and atmosphere. I mean that in a good way, mind you.
