[ryankoch]

[MiamiLife305]

[OptimusTrajan]

Amazing game.

[angelfire2005]

one of my favorite games of all time. teared up at some parts of the story. the soundtrack is epic as well

[BearyManilowe]

Imagine paying $20 for this old game instead of just subscribing to game pass and opening up this game + so many others for free.

[MrBourbon]

Game starts okay, gets epic, and the last 5 minutes is absolutely staggering.

[GTraven]

Looks alright but isnt the main character a hot sloot with a short skirt? I remember seeing a bit a few years ago where u can make her just wear panties aswell

Thats just to much so i will never play coz im on nofap and no porn would probably end up busting several nuts to it

[Stackerbruh]

Great game, one of the best i ever played. Carefull with the Steam version tho, it's a bad bad port

Finally started route C, finished ABGO. Sometimes the game really ticks me off, and I feel like there's massive imbalances with hacking and leveling above Normal difficulty, but I guess I'm about to finally get into the "real story".

Routes A & B didn't leave much of an impression on me tbh. Practically no story and bland game world, but I'm going forward based off all these glowing recommendations.

I enjoyed A & B apart from the Adam stuff that never really goes anywhere, but C is where it starts falling into place.

Ok I'm only an hour in so far, we'll see. My overall impression of the game is that it's a fun open world hack and slash with rpg elements, rather than a narrative driven epic RPG, where the story and lore are second to the combat and art style. The entire machine storyline seems like it could be summed up in one sentence: machines trying to act like humans. Basically, it feels like there's very little context for anything and i'm not entirely sure what the plot of the game is.

The plot is that humanity has abandoned the androids and robots, and the androids are struggling to find meaning. Mild spoiler in case you haven't reached this part, even though it's heavily telegraphed:

Spoiler!

Humanity isn't waiting on the moon. The humans all died hundreds (thousands?) of years ago, and the androids keep fighting in an endless struggle even though it is meaningless

So how do we make a meaningful life when our gods have abandoned us? Pascal offers one answer, 2B another. The forest King, the amusement park, the robots trying to "act" human. What makes life worth living if in the end nothing we do matters?

I enjoyed the combat more than most people, but I agree it's just so so, esp considering it's a Platinum game and they made Bayonetta aka the tightest brawler game ever.

I played the original Nier on PS3 and put about 15 hours on it but dropped it. It just wasn't very fun to me

I mean he did hide with it a spoiler tag

Anyone play on steam with the FAR mod? Heard it fixes a lot of the resolution issues etc. I play in 4k so would def need a fix

[Slurgie]

Don't waste time w/ gamepass, I have it, and 90% of the games I've played on there have been unplayable due to crashes, bugs, deactivating my ps3 controller, etc.

Have the same game on steam and controller has 0 issues.

Just read the reviews on 80% of gamepass games, then compare the reviews to the steam version.

Just decided to bite the bullet. Far mod fixes the game on steam pretty well. Put in higher quality textures and cutscenes as well while I was at it. Played the first couple hours. Game is definitely unique, think I’m going to continue

[Sublime25]

The FAR mod fix the major issues and make the game really playable.

There's also an official "patch" in the making also from the developpers. Will the game finally be fixed ?

It's a mild spoiler for a 5 year old game hidden behind a warning AND spoiler tags. Don't be that guy.
