Nier Automata

How did you guys like the livestream?

...

...

The way those enemies get skewered....

The "spells" this time around are sexy.

Did they say anything about Toobie's destructible outfit?

DELETE THIS

2B a cute.

...

Forward this to Kotaku and Vice Gaming immediately.

We need this changed before the western release.

>Boar racing confirmed
>Fishing confirmed
I'm just waiting for the western release date at this point.

people said they want this game more colored

how do we fix that

...

>dat music

It is colorful, the stream is just really compressed. It only went up to 720p too.

Fix what, the lack of color or people wanting it?

I wouldn't be opposed to a single color game like Nier was. This has some dark areas at least.

>that music and track transition
>that cute sitting animation while fishing
>all those skills based on the sealed verses
>boar drifting
i'm ready

>the animation when she shakes her foot when standing in the water

This is pretty much the only game im looking forward to outside of FFXV(slightly) and Nioh, looks sick.

I don't necessarily care about the lack of color, but it's not colorful at all. Your screenshot is basically what people mean when they say there's no color.

Is the game going to have english text on release? (subs/ui&menus)

maybe it's just certain areas, maybe as you progress, the areas get more colorful

if you really feel that the game lack color, you can always use an injector if you play on the pc

A full text translation who knows, but minimally, the menus have some.

pretty cool m8
I like that big katana

>boar drifting

Will it be released with the japanese dub in the west?

Cute robot autism.

Nier didn't release with Japanese voice acting other than in the Replicant version, so it seems unlikely.

They'll probably make it paid DLC like Drakengard 3. Which I'd be fine with.

shit gif i made

For what reason?

Full list of Pod Programs (special attacks):

R010 — Laser (fires a straight beam of energy)
R020 — Mirage (makes 2B invisible as she flies around attacking all enemies in a radius)
R030 — Hammer (summons a giant hammer that sends enemies flying
R040 — Blade (like summon swords or crow within feathers, surrounds 2B with a spinning blade)
R050 — Spear (makes rows of spears shoot from the ground which impale enemies and trap them)
R060 — M Shield (destroys all enemy bullets on contact)
A070 — P Shield (knocks back enemies who melee the player)
A080 — Wave (spawns an expanding ring of energy that damages grounded enemies)
A090 — Wire (a grappling hook like Monsoon's sai in MGR)
A100 — Decoy (spawns a hologram that attracts enemies, also acts as a stationary turret)
A110 — Slow (makes a sphere inside which enemies are slow but 2B isn't, like localized witch time)
A120 — Repair (heals 2B if she stands still directly under it)
A130 — Bomb (a volley of damaging shots)
A140 — Gravity (sucks enemies in toward a point and traps them)
A150 — Volt (stuns an enemy and deals damage, but ALWAYS leaves the enemy with at least 1HP... Why it's needed, we don't know)
A160 — Missile (like stinger, damaging super-sash)
A170 — Scanner (the pod will highlight otherwise-invisible items in the world

Don't know what separates A and R classes for these.

Also, the player has 3 Pods to switch between, which each have not only their own assignable ability but their own gun as well (whether these can be changed or are hardcoded is unclear); we see "Gatling", "Laser", and "Missile" fire modes in play.

Don't forget moose drifting

So the pods specifically mimic Weiss' magic. Do they have the verses memorised?

Also what's the material we use to upgrade this time around? It was blood last time because it contained power but this time all the enemies are robots, so what would we use to improve our magical abilities?

Moose doesn't drift. Moose runs fast and can jump, but doesn't drift.

Also
>if SOTC taught me anything, it's that we'll be able to catch a ride on one of those birds flying overhead

i thought that the drift was boar exclusive

it's nuts and bolts, when they kill some enemies, they drop some that they get collected automatically

*moose platforming

Moose's can't drift it seems. So boars are the only option if you want to drift. I hope I'm wrong though so we can have multi-animal drifting.

We don't know WHAT that shit does.

There's a shitload of upgradeable shit:
Pod skills
Player skills
Weapons / gear

Plus, purchaseable items, gear, etc.

Whether we craft shit from enemy drops, or trade it, or what, who knows.

>dat kicking animation

My dick.

idk

I think it is the the thing that makes more sense, seeing how the playable characters are androids and the refugee camp might need scrap for repairing shit, so it's used as common currency

For all we know it's DK64 tier with a half-dozen collectible "currencies" for different things.

Obviously it's because you can't make webms.

Nice open world music.

I'm gonna miss Dark Phantasm, though I usually only use Dark Hand and Dark Lance besides Dark Blast. It would be cool with the Weiss skin that he starts talking.

>The gameplay is actually good

We finally have a Yoko Taro game that is replayable after getting all the endings because it's fun.

I'm gonna miss the heavy hitstop that caused the entire world to stop when you hit a group.

MGR did it with the wood sword with snake's voice clips, but it got cut from the western version.

a man can dream

>Dark Phantasm
AKA mirage; charge the attack to widen a circle which, on release, you vanish and attack everything inside.

That's, functionally, how Phantasm works, albeit with clones rather than just vanishing

>this music

I hope this composer comes back for YuYuYu2

>We finally have a Yoko Taro game that is replayable after getting all the endings because it's fun.
Drakengardoka was breddy fun. I liked the final boss ending

I know I'm still dissatisfied that we didn't get it, I would've been fine with Otsuka instead of Hayter. Kiefer too but that's too low of a pay grade for him.

I think Okabe is definitely coming back for YuYuYu2, the suffering wouldn't work well without the ost.

So what exactly is in the black box?

Is that cd the soundtrack? Who do I have to kill for it?

figure
art book
sample soundtrack cd

usual stuff

Soundtrack CD
Art book
Figurine
Novelization of Nier 1
The game itself
And maybe (?) the Nier concert blu ray..?

going to do some webms, any requests?

>sample

Eh. Here's hoping the western special edition has the full version, if not I'll just buy it separately.

>Getting more than I expected

I'm loving every line of code

didn't they keep saying they were hoping for a worldwide release?

All pod programs please.

I'd like this as long as they don't butcher the translation like D3

BOAR

well you arent wrong

Yes do and 44:05 to 44:08 especially. Need that paralyze webm

as soon as i download the video, my connection isn't that great and video is 1gb+

...

Can we see some new enemies?
Shirley it can't just be these boxy bots for the whole game

Nier was just shades from start to finish

...

...

god bless this image

Thanks user

doing all the skills is going to take a minute, so bare with it

toobee is cute
CUTE

...

...

>Pod Skills
To be quite honest, at first I was thinking ZoE sub weapons, but it actually reminds me of a more completed version of the Oneechanbara Vamp Skills from Z1. That first menu is classic Metal Gear Solid as fuck.

>2B
>Toobee
>To Be

OH OH WOAH WOAH OH OH WOAH WOAH
MEESTER BLASTOR

ROCKING HARDCORE ALL OF THE WORLD

I NEED IT

...

NEW DESIRE
TAKE ME HIGHER

...

Hammer doesn't seem as fast as Dark Hand was

I feel like this game is still going a little too under the radar for most people. It has the building blocks to be absolutely incredible

>We finally have a Yoko Taro game that is replayable after getting all the endings because it's fun.
He'll probably balance it out by forcing you to do the stupidest and grindiest shit to unlock them.

>Nier Automata comes out
>on the box there's a little sticker
> FEATURING DANTE AND VERGIL FROM THE DEVIL MAY CRY SERIES

I think I speak for everyone here.
All of the panty shots please.
Thanks.

i really wish they paid me to do this

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH ADRENALINE

you do speak for everynoe

And DMCfags said this game isn't CUHRAYZEE. Where are they now? This game has more depth than 90% of those cuhrayzee games.

>tfw didn't know what perfection was until 2D

Please don't fuck up this game
Please don't fuck up this game
Please don't fuck up this game
Please don't fuck up this game
Please don't fuck up this game

I'd help out but I have college shit

Ikiteiru!!!

Haven't been keeping up with the news and now there's a bunch of it. What kind of RPG elements are in this game now?

the framerate wouldn't help showing
much unfortunately

you or someone else should do me the favor of saving these for later threads

...

Do her summon swords next.

Was there ANYTHING new shown?

Any new scenes with A2?

Honestly the only thing I'm fearful of is it's coming to the US. I don't wanna wait fucking 5 months for a shitty dub, or any dub for that matter *cough cough* Persona 5

The western branch of Square has pretty much completely forgotten about the game. They've barely talked about it at all since E3. Likely because they're focusing all their effort on pushing FF15, but I hope they actually give this game some attention at some point or another.

PRAISE BE TO OUR NEW GOD, MAY OUR WORLD BE BLESSED WITH A HAPPY ENDING

Of sorts...
