>"Square Enix announced the first downloadable content for NieR: Automata during its “One Million Shipments Commemoration” live stream today.
>The downloadable content, titled “3C3C1D119440927,” will launch on May 2 for 1,500 yen in Japan and is “coming soon” in North America and Europe. It will include three new colosseums to challenge, plus additional sub-quests. Upon completion of these quests, players can earn various rewards, including:
>Costumes from the previous Japanese release, NieR: Replicant, for androids 2B, 9S and A2 “Revealing Outfit” (in the style of Kaine) for 2B “Young Man’s Outfit” (in the style of young Nier) for 9S “Destroyer Outfit” (in the style of young adult Nier) for A2 Records that add special music tracks to the players’ jukebox New equipment and cosmetic accessories such as hairspray that allows you to change the color of 2B and A2’s hair Masks with unique “on equip” effects Special bullets that change the appearance of enemy bullets"
Just dress-up shit? Are the inaccessible elevators just going to go to some shitty colosseum?
God-damn it, Square.
Jace Wilson
>no Zero costume
Ian Baker
>Kaine outfit for 2B
Jayden Ward
What exactly did you expect? At least it's better than the first game's DLC.
Hudson Ortiz
I dunno, something that isn't complete garbage from a game that was otherwise pretty good? Why would you "expect" something so fucking weak and inconsequential from the mysterious guarded elevators all over the place?
Sebastian Anderson
>“Revealing Outfit” (in the style of Kaine) for 2B >Kainé
Knowing Taro's style, it'll come with the, ahem, bulge.
Ayden Perry
>2B dressed as Kaine
Muh dick
Samuel Harris
>something that isn't complete garbage Is this your first Taro game?
Parker Collins
It's probably just low-cost, low-effort DLC they were already working on, just in case Automata wasn't successful, since most games aren't.
Now that it's a proven hit, they can switch over to more manpower intensive DLC to monetize the game.
Colton Reyes
>no papa nier outfit for 9S Mistakes were made
Charles Rogers
Can we agree it's fucking nothing?
Logan Peterson
He DID tell us to not get excited. "Just poop" remember?
Cameron Anderson
>implying 9S is fit to fill Papa Nier's shoes
Austin Myers
>Make 2b dress like a whore >made 2a dress like a professional soldier
What the fuck did they mean by this
Ryder Smith
how much is this going to be?
Levi Powell
Expect something more substantial like a story DLC to be announced at E3
Adam Green
both were losers who fucked up big time
Matthew Cox
Whatever happened to the Gravity Rush outfits?
Josiah Sanchez
pc crack when?
Blake Evans
Don't want to be an apologist but it seems like it's only a first DLC to come out, there may be more interesting shit down the road.
Plus there's a lot cosmetic shit to unlock (that should've been in the full fucking game, but still) so once all DLCs drop it will be an ideal situation to install all of them and play through the entire thing again. I sank 50 hours into it, looking forward to repeating that in the future.
Levi Garcia
>he deleted his save
Juan Walker
Just more proof Nier onii-chan is canon and old man Nier is only remembered by the less than 100 western fans who bought Nier.
Daniel Ramirez
Kat got Toob's outfit in GR2.
Dominic Howard
But no Kat outfit for 2B?
Xavier Johnson
We'll know about new DLC (or not) at E3 since it was mentioned during the stream.
Connor Foster
Sadly no
Carter Sanchez
The Colosseum challenges don't sound fun because when nips want a challenge they don't fucking play around. I just want the costumes, man.
Isaac Wright
Hay you bunch of secondaier chuckle fucks. get a load of that name.
"3C3C1D119440927"
it's a date, septemper 27th 11944 which to you plebs is one year before the game takes place. why the fuck does the DLC have a name like this waht does "3C3C1D" mean.
>new side quests.
You fuck heads do relize this will have some story in it as well? The world of the recycled vessel had new story bits as well.
Also papa Nier is not cannon Nier, sorry.
Easton Roberts
So does the DLC fix how easy the game is?
Ethan Morgan
Do we have any date on the Pearl Harbor decent?
Samuel Rivera
Yeah, but at least Papa Nier was a likable character and not a screaming anime kid.
Christian Green
...
Adrian Carter
Holy shit that grapple pod program. Is that in game already or dlc?
Lucas Walker
Its also the day that Operation Market Garden failed.
This is some long term axis butthurt.
Lucas Hall
Its in the game. You buy it from at the resistance camp.
Jaxon Peterson
>no Emil costume for 9S
Charles Reed
11941 is when the play/pearl harbor took place.
Kevin Barnes
...
Christian Phillips
>Unlockables through challenges instead of instant gratification
Fuck you, I never did get the Raiden costume in MGSV and probably never will.
Camden Lopez
...
John Roberts
>The world of the recycled vessel had new story bits as well. Yeah, fucking hardly >Also papa Nier is not cannon Nier, sorry. Both versions of Nier are referenced in weapon stories, they're both canon.They released the same day in Japan. In a universe as fucked as Taro's I don't see why one of them even has to be "more canon" than the other.
Wyatt Robinson
Yeah, that's utter shit tier garbage. No chance of me getting that DLC. desu having troubles even finishing the game.
Ayden Powell
>DLC for Brother Nier and not Papa Nier. Hopefully this means we can get Replicant here if they make a remaster.
Xavier Ramirez
Don't you find it on one of the yorha units that lie around dead later in the game?
Jaxson Barnes
>He didn't delete his save then 100%'d the game afterwards.
Adam Turner
Probably. No one really expected it to sell as well as it did, that´s probably why this DLC seems like something you could easily program in a few months.
Liam Wright
>don't see why one of them even has to be "more canon" than the other. Because you cannot doom humanity twice, also Bro Nier got Ending E, not Papa Nier.
It's the reward from the Amnesia Sidequest
Tyler Price
Its rewarded for completing the side quest amnesia during the 2nd play through. You're a fucking retard
Carson Jackson
Are you playing on Hard/Very Hard?
Items do fuck up the game's balance though, they should've had put a cooldown on items, at least on Hard Mode I guess.
Easton Gray
>In a universe as fucked as Taro's I don't see why one of them even has to be "more canon" than the other.
Brother has a far more fleshed outback story. (the red and black) there was far more effort put into his desgien (aging 5 years during the time skip actully changed how he looked compleatly, papa nier just got a BDSM diaper to wear on his face) and it was stated that at the time SE was worried the game wouldn't be peopular in the west with the more femenin protag so they shat out papa Nier tward the end of the dev cycle.
desu, i like them both. but prefer brother because i am a filthy pervert.
Liam Reyes
>muh dick
Dominic Myers
Why should it? It is a costume, so 2b is literally just wearing her outfit, not turning into a hermaphrodite. The brother nier outfit doesn't give you a dick and chop off your tits does it?
Hunter Johnson
>September 25, 1944: At dawn the 1st Airborne Division received their orders to withdraw across the Rhine; this was called Operation Berlin >Operation Berlin Wasn't Operation Berlin mentioned ingame?
Jaxson Howard
So when someone gets killed helping you in Ending E, do they get deleted from whatever "Database" your name gets uploaded to when you choose to delete your save, or does it remain? If it doesn't then it makes deleting your save not very impactful since you're not really "Sacrificing your save data to help someone else beat the game" as much as just "Deleting your save so your name will occasionally appear when other players try to beat the game"
Oliver Morris
wtf i love cosmetics now
Grayson James
Hell, no. I'll be pissed if that happens. Papa Nier had pretty powerful characterization as an obsessed father who didn't care who he killed as long as he got his daughter back. Some pussified onii-chan type can't possibly compare.
Jason Sullivan
I'd kill for this. and as good as the english VAs were i'd like to hear what the jap cast was like. from what I hear though if Taro had his way he'd fully remake the game changs a lot of stuff about.
Zachary Wood
THEY CANT KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS
But please do
Zachary Bailey
I'm giving my meat a good ol' rub if you understand what it is that's coming from my mouth.
Tyler Wood
A2 looks pretty damn good in older bro Nier's outfit. Also is it just me or did her hips get bigger?
Anthony Green
>first FFXV >now this
Are CEO boss fights going to become a trend?
Jace Edwards
But I already played Papa Nier's game, I want to play Brother Nier's game now.
Also Papa Nier is garbage since he acts like a teenager but is a 40 year old man.
Logan Reyes
why not both?
Eli Ramirez
Should I just wait for a complete collection instead of buying it now?
Leo Collins
>tfw want to play the first Nier >can't decide between just buying the game for my PS3 >or possibly waiting for a remaster/remake that may never come
Tyler Cruz
Never said otherwise.
Wait until E3, if they don't say anything there then I doubt they'll do so later.
Elijah Morgan
There was talk before automatas release that if it did well on pc, they might remaster nier 1. I don't have an official link tho.
Ryder White
>kaine outfit
I'm surprised this wasn't in the base game
Cameron Martinez
>still no Toobie toes
Landon Moore
Now we only need a mod that replaces 9S with 2B, I can't fucking stand his fucking face.
Matthew Edwards
I dunno, you tell me user
Thomas Young
Square are printing more copies of Nier.
Its unlikely they are gonna remaster.
Caleb Ortiz
>3C3C1D Well if you use it as color hex it it does have a similar color to pic related.
Austin Reyes
They never had the budget for a story DLC in the first place as was said in pre-release interviews.
Arenas was something that was direly needed though. The power level of the characters is too strong if you invested even the slightest bit of time optimizing stuff. I basically 1-shot 21-O and So-shi.
Ryan Gomez
the person who's help you originally accept gets deleted but the other ones who get deleted while you're playing don't
John Harris
2B is a slut who lusts after 9S's shotadick while A2 is pure
Evan Rivera
I already finished the game on normal and tried to play through again on hard. My main issue is that the enemies aren't balanced to the skill the player has, like having a moveset to counter the player, instead of increased health and damage.
Asher Brown
I imagine your data has to get multiple "uses" at least, otherwise the entire thing would be unsustainable. 1 run through the credits can use up multiple saves, but every player only gets one sacrifice. This means that if a sacrifice can't be used by multiple players, they would dry up fast as fuck and people wouldn't be able to get help anymore. I kind of doubt they'd design it that way.
Jonathan Williams
Has someone checked it as a hexadecimal?
Landon Baker
W-what happens when she self-destruct in Kaine outfit?
Luis Miller
...
Parker Rivera
>A2 >pure
Michael Hughes
Yoko Taro is just taking the piss now.
What's wrong with it?
Jaxon Mitchell
Gets me a "T"
Bentley Morales
They are literally the same character, but at different ages. Having bro Nier only makes NieR 1 make more sense in context to the story.
Liam Sanders
>since he acts like a teenager but is a 40 year old man Honestly I think the VA did fine besides the fact that the romance for Kaine seems to suddenly come out of nowhere for Ending D/E. My only flaw with Papa Nier is how they characterize his interactions with Kaine as if he's a dad dealing with a sassy teenager, but then all of the suddenly he does a 180 when you reach ending D and falls in love with her which was uncomfortable to watch unfold.
Papa Nier is basically just babysitting Emil and Kaine until that point honestly. The only other problems are a few animations looking a bit awkward.
Lucas Sanders
Both versions are canon since multiverse is also literally, not metaphorically canon
God damn you are retarded
Aaron Powell
>The pearl hardor incadent/the play took place in 11941
>The real life Attack on Pearl Harbor took place on December 7, 1941.
Mason Wilson
Those legs hnnnnnnnngggggg
Samuel Butler
All the WW2 dates correspond to the ingame events. The 14th Machine War also ended in 11945
Jason Sanders
is this a running gag with SE games now
Eli Perez
And you are a repressed homosexual my friend.
Thomas Evans
Yeah I had the same line of thinking since I got hit like 10 times after accepting help, what said makes the most sense honestly, and I really hope that's the case, I like the idea of Ending E becoming damn near impossible to get sometime in the future because all other player data is "destroyed" so to speak.It makes the ending way more cool.
Jacob Perez
Yeah, since he's a replicant.
Adrian Perry
What are the CEOs saying in the song?
Adam Reed
It probably would have been if not for Square Enix's kikery. The map for the arena is literally in the game already as the debug area.
