RPGFan Review - NieR: Automata

Odd review, he never actually finished the game, and probably never read the message after the credits saying "Hey! The game isn't over, continue on to find out what is happening!".

He said on reddit that he felt talking about the endings was a spoiler, at least to people who haven't played Drakengard/NieR in the past and don't know how Yoko Taro games work. Fully completing it took him ~32 hours total.

Hm, understandable I guess. He rushed through the game a bit, depends on playstyle though. Been watching Admiral Bahroo on his playthrough, he's at about 70hrs (he is going for 100% quest completion though) on Ch3. This is pretty awesome game.

I haven't normally played RPG's like this, so my amazement at how good it is may be misplaced, but damn. I would give it GOTY simply for making the ending credits a game in itself.

If you can though, play the original Nier first, it will make the Story a lot more impactful.

By the way, the game is 900p60 with shitty aliasing and some fps drops on the normal PS4.

1080p60 with antialiasing (and still some a few fps drops) on the Pro.

The AA alone is a huge difference in image quality on the Pro, was the main reason I went out and got one.

The first was not ground breaking in its visuals, except maybe the style. People don't play Neir for the eye candy. Music needs to be good, though.

The music in Automata is amazing, same composer and I believe it has the same vocalists as in the original Nier.

march 17 for PC/steam
NieR: Automata for PC officially launches March 17 - Gematsu

Well that is good to know it comes out so soon on PC, canceling my PS4 order now.

Yeah, hard to decide without having info about the quality of the port.

No clue yet. It was delayed to update Denuvo, not shitcan it, so I'm keeping my PS4 preorder. I don't want to wait anyway; I almost caved in and bought the HK version a half dozen times since it released there.

Reviews are coming out for the game now, hopefully the reviewers actually play through the whole game.
