Apparently fishing is going to be something fairly central to the gameplay, the fishing items get their own subsection.

>materials
Also crafting confirmed, I guess

And healing items are back (not that this should surprise anyone), on d-pad down.

>crafting

ew

Independent light and heavy attack stats.

This is interesting to me, because what we know of the combat so far is that weapons can be freely assigned to the two attack commands (Square and Triangle).

Having actual "light" and "heavy" stats external to the equipped weapons suggests that which button you equip a weapon to changes which of its attacks you can use, not unlike Bayonetta.

Adds a little bit to the depth of the game when short sword / greatsword and greatsword / short sword are different loadouts.

do i need to play the first nier for automata?

Not really but its good enough to play on its own

>crafting
literally picked up my monitor and dropped it

I agree, but Transformers Devastation's weapon synthesis system was way more fun than I expected so I'll reserve judgment until I see it in action.

If it's "gather the bullshit, follow the recipe" it will suck. If it's "gummi ship gear legos" I'll love it.

Crafting CAN be done well. It doesn't have to be "every Early Access game on Steam right now".

Just hope that it actually is.

Yea, I'm willing to give it a chance at least. The free weapon slots has be excited at least.

Also I guess its their chance to make up for the "Verses" system in Nier 1 that was totally broken along with the magic.

But user, Nier Automata has Sealed Verses too.

They're just called "Pod Programs".

Let us commence the game breaking then

>Nier 1 NG+
>forget the bosses even exist because lol punch

I think you're making the mistake of assuming Plat is as bad at game balance as Cavia was.

True that, MGR still kicks my ass to this day. Here's to it then

Punished Yoko Taro?

Why is he so based?

I just want him and Swery to team up in some fashion.

holy shit this face actually looks super cool with those srcews and stuff.

Do I really have to play as an autist?

How am I suppose to play this game without fapping every 10 munutes?

>Apparently fishing is going to be something fairly central to the gameplay
I'm okay with this, fishing was fun.

>fishing
>as ROBOT
Explain this.

I really need to see her panties
the front of her panties

You don't see any pantsu.

She'll have some nice and puffy grandma panties.
t. western censoring

She wears a very high cut leotard. Sorry senpai.

Toss Pod into water, pull it back

Literally

>Crafting CAN be done well
Not in an action game thx bye.

Why would they need to eat?

oh

Action RPG, faggot

And as long as it's "stats tetris", it's actually a lot of fun; you can attach X number of components to your weapon, components have various advantages and disadvantages (+Atk Speed / -Atk Str, Ability: Charge Strike / - Atk Speed, etc) and you have to decide which combination of parts to use.

It's only recipe-based crafting that sucks, and we don't know what "Materials" are used for at all, only that they exist

Most people who fish don't do so because they're hungry

To relax, yeah but robots don't need to relax.

I-is Taro okay? What happened to his face?

Fell down at TGS.

They need to show their dominance on living creatures. Like how they ride boars.

What's the point of dominating fish?

Maybe because fishing makes them feel more human

Access Games did work on DoD3 and Swery was pretty assblasted about Taro getting to work with Plat.

Sauce? I think Swery is adorable and I love reading stuff like that

Soooo is Automata gonna be shown off more to western audience during Paris or not? I want a release date, goddamit.

>shit talking Based Taro
Wow, get fucked Swery

>the only good action rpg ever made

What is bloodborne

It comes out in february, 3rd week, no?

Well, PGW is half-over and no word, so...

Has Squeenix presented at PGW? I know KH had a showing, what about XV?

Technically only confirmed for Japan on that date. I guess everyone assumes a simultaneous WW release is not gonna happen

I keep hearing that they're pushing for a WW release but I don't think anyone is holding there breath for it
