    The fans insisted that this game was going to be a revelation in the endings after A: that it would completely turn my understanding inside out; that I would face astonishing philosophical ideas; that I would cry multiple times at the heart-wrenching story. None of those things happened. It's a very typical anime-esque story that ticks every box on the Typical Anime Plot Points list. The examination of violence in games is about as light and straightforward as it can possibly be. The character I'm meant to care for the most is absurdly stupid, as is the Real Story about how YoRHa works.

    It's undeniably stylish, and it plays with game design standards in some delightful ways at times. The combat is not so great. At least it becomes entertainingly spectacular later on, but there's a problem at the core. You have plug-in chips that radically improve your fighting abilities. On one hand, it's up to you if you use them and make the game very easy. On the other, if you die you'll have to hunt for your body and reabsorb it, otherwise you'll lose your inventory. This is enough of an annoyance that most players are going to load up their best chips simply to avoid that tedious hunting.

    Despite how shallow it turns out to be, it's impossible not to become fond of its world. There's a strong design language to it all, and once you've played it you will never forget it. Even so, I wasn't enjoying myself in the first dozen hours and I spent most of the final stretch attempting to race through it because I just wanted it to be over. Maybe I shouldn't have done as many side quests as I did, but 38 hours is way too long for a game of this type. Many of the side quests were mind-numbingly bad, and the game would have benefited greatly from having most of them removed, plus many of the main missions.

    I wanted to like Nier:Automata much more than I did. There's no question that N:A has many touches of brilliance. It's a great example of the benefits of an auteur creator being given the green light to make a very personal vision come to life. However, I can't give a higher rating to a game that made me plod through so many unenjoyable hours. It's still good, on balance, but "balance" is the operative word. This is a 9/10 game whipped together with a 5/10 game.    … Expand

    6 to fix the framerates issue please ! The gameplay is still pure genius though ! :-)
    Second review after having spent more than 15 hours in the game. I had given an 8, almost a 9.
    Down to 6 because of the uneven framrate throughout the different areas of the game.

    What's more: monotonous and boring opponents, pointless camera changes, dull gameplay.
    But the most important thing is the plot. I kept waiting for it to become interesting. When there are interesting turns or memorable characters. After all, everyone praised the plot so much ... But I never got anything interesting.
    As I understand it, everyone just liked the main character in the game in a short skirt. Because there is nothing else in this game.
    Dull gameplay, boring plot.

    The fact that game talks about some human emotions like anxiety, love, fear doesnt mean that it does in a productive way.

    . Soundtrack

    . It has philosophical elements that can lead the player to become interested in that área.

    . Good interaction of typical tech settings with characters. Ex: increase memory, upgrade parts, etc.

    --> Negative Points:

    . Shallow philosophy [i have major degree in philosophy and i tell you that. Take some phrases from Sartre and put it in the game doesnt make it philosophical].

    . Hack mini game. It looks like it was created in the 90's and it has a design error within it. Spinning is
    different from moving sideways.

    . Even those who played the predecessor game (NIER) have many doubts about the plot. Why do humans create a species that has the same problems as they? Ex: anxiety, emotions, etc.

    . Absurd concepts. 1) Baby machines (machines are ready-made, the concept of biological development only apllies for those how were born, not "ready-made”); 2) Red fluids "blood" in machines/androids. Why they would spend time and resources to introduce red cells in machines that dont need red “ink” to transport O2 through a body.

    . Excessive reuse of assets. There are 5 serious endings and at least 25 hours of gameplay in the same 4-5 scenarios.    … Expand

    A game that plays itself.
    Nier Automata is a 3rd person hack and slash open world action adventure rpg game where you play as android 2B accompanied by 9s and a droid
    This game takes place after Nier, though this is a spin off, there are nods to the past game here// but other than to appreciate those moments, playing the past games is unnecessary..
    This continues the human vs robot war in a post-apocalyptic open world where robots are beginning to feel emotion…
    2B and 9S have an endearing relationship here... 2B being programmed to be more calm and composed, while 9s is more emotional…
    Leads for some great moments and dialog in the game,, its just a shame theyre so few and far between because watching their growth is the best part of the game..
    The game takes around 8 hours to complete… though there are multiple endings and perspectives the game shows you if you’re interested in checking them out...
    After playing through Automata the first time though... I was fine with that ending being my final ending…
    Because unfortunately neither the story nor the world enticed me enough to want to play again
    The world is tiny, dull, colorless, lifeless, not fun to explore…
    And the entire 8 hour journey is spent revisiting all of these locations over and over…
    There were very few moments I thought wow... this game is beautiful or this section is really cool…
    It looks and feels generic throughout…
    I did enjoy the fact that the camera is constantly pulling in and out, changing game perspective, to where at times the game feels like a 2d platformer.. I just wish more was done with it than give us the typical grey and brown rusty structures to run through…
    For the most part you get a task, go to the location on the map, turn in your progress, go to a different location... fight a boss that all but maybe 2 are just spongier hack and slash battles… rinse and repeat…
    The world feels connected… but back to the point that it feels generic…
    Nothing feels like you haven’t seen it before…
    Making your journey back and forth feel like a drag…
    the combat here is fairly fun… I wouldn’t necessarily call it satisfying though…
    Not much to it other than light and heavy attacks…
    You can find new weapons in the world and upgrade them with the parts and materials you find in the world and off of robots to make the battle grind a little quicker…
    but much like the world... the combat was just there. It was good… the world is good... but again, never felt fun to me… just existing
    plus there’s a setting in the game where all you have to do is move your character... The game does the attacking for you…
    Almost turning this into a twin stick shooter hack and slash game if you want…
    I dipped my toes in both styles
    but after fighting enemies that all felt the same over and over... I actually started to prefer the autopilot mode.
    I’m sorry, I know this dislikes are coming... I’m in the minority here…
    But I don’t see the upper 8s and 9s this game is getting by everyone else
    Nier Automata has great characters in B2 and 9S...
    But the story of these robots feeling emotion is never told in an impactful way…
    the world is no fun to explore..
    the bosses feel uninspired and the combat is just there…
    This is a good game, I had fun…
    you won’t regret playing through…
    but I don’t honestly believe you’re missing anything if you choose to skip this one…

    Or is it?

    Nier: Automata is a game full of plot twists, though some are rather predictable, as well as a number of big epic moments and a lot of attempts to pull on the player’s heartstrings, with varying degrees of success. Featuring three protagonists and almost two-dozen joke endings, as well as a couple of real ones, this is a game which goes on well past its welcome, and then some.

    But I’m getting ahead of myself.

    As an action RPG, this game has a fairly reasonable set of mechanics on the surface – you can run around shooting at enemies with your pod, a floating machine which follows you around, or cut them up in close combat with various weapons – spears, short swords, large swords, and gauntlets. Each class of weapon has its own attack pattern, and two of the characters can wield two weapons at the same time, allowing them to combo the weapons together, while the third character has a hacking ability which causes them to play a brief shoot-em-up game to deal their opponent damage.

    Unfortunately, while these mechanics all sound well and good, it quickly becomes clear that the game doesn’t really work mechanically. The abundance of healing items means that you can pretty easily prevent your death by simply using them at will, and you get “plug-in chips” which can include various abilities to give yourself more hit points or regenerate by killing enemies, dealing damage, or simply standing around without taking damage. Given you can deal damage from range, it is pretty easy to kite most enemies around, and it is very easy to either be underleveled for the content (which makes it take a while to wear down enemies) or overlevelled (which trivializes the combat even more, though it is not actually all that hard to take down enemies even 20 levels above your own, though it is tedious to do so). There is a crafting system based on combining the plug-in chips into better versions of themselves, as well as upgrading the weapons and pods to deal more damage, and gathering the materials for such can become rather tedious, doubly so as you must upgrade all your weapons to the maximum level to face the optional (and hardest) boss in the game.

    Alas, the game’s enemy variety leaves something to be desired; there’s maybe a couple dozen kinds of enemies in the game apart from bosses, but most of them are fundamentally either “stab you in close combat” or “shoot you from range”. Most of the machine lifeforms are slow and clunky, making for pretty samey combat and making it easy to simply run around kiting them and shooting them to death while avoiding their slow projectiles. By the first time you’ve beaten the game, you will likely be tired of the normal enemies, but don’t worry – you’ll get to fight them even more later on!

    Because, you see, this game has an interesting definition of “beating” it. The first time you beat the game, it coyly encourages you to keep playing… at which point, you start the game over, except from the perspective of your sidekick character. This means that most of the content you experience will be the same, with only the beginning and end really differing, though you get even more tedious side-quests on his route (and the opportunity to finish up any you failed to finish the first time through).

    Once you beat the game the second time through, and see ending, the game ends with a screen seeming to promise a sequel… but it is not, it is actually the other two endings of the game, which you get through by playing through the game a third time, though this time, instead of replaying the first half of the game, instead you’re actually playing all-new content which you could only access by effectively playing the first half of the game twice. Joy.

    If this game was nothing but the main story, and if it cut out a lot of the RPG mechanics, it would actually be a lot more interesting – the bosses are, on the whole, of fairly interesting design, and the core story is fairly decent, even if some of the characters you’re supposed to care about feel a bit underchracterized in the anime sort of way, where they suddenly get some focus right before they die. The second half of the game focuses half on a character who previously had gotten almost no focus at all, which feels kind of weird, and while by the end you do care about her, it ends up feeling less than tight in terms of writing. I would have liked to care a lot more about a lot of the characters, but they don’t get enough screen time for it, despite the game's 50 hours of run time.

    My advice? Skip it unless you've got a lot of free time on your hands. The high points are good, but you have to wade through a lot of junk to get there.    … Expand

    I can't forgive such experienced studio as Platinum for graphics from 2005 - 2008, and for mediocre melee combat. But interesting setting, nice story and variability in gameplay are balancing things up. And overall this game feels really good.

    Graphics: 8 Technically the graphics are ps3 but the artwork is amazing and builds excellent atmosphere.The game has performance issues though and the optimization for the pc is bad.Nothing game-breaking but you will get dips below 60 fps even with high end cards while the graphics don't seem so demanding.Artwork>graphics so 8/10 here

    Sound: 9 The soundtrack is truly memorable,one of the best i have heard in years in a videogame and it really compliments the mysterious setting of the game.The fx sound of the game is good, could be worse could be better.Not every dialog is voice acted though.It gest a 9 mostly for the amazing soundtrack

    Gameplay: 7 Serious balancing issues for the difficulty levels.Very hard=one hit killed.That makes the different enemies irrelevant. Weather u get him by the smallest enemy or from the largest robot it's the same and it kills any purpose of having different enemies and different levels of enemies.In normal u have to try hard to get killed.the camera is bad in this game.You don't have lock on on hard and very hard and i had to move the camera far away from me because u constantly get attacked my mobs and u have to be aware of your surroundings 360 degrees.That creates another problem and that is that u can't really see the animations of the opponents when the are ready to strike.This and the fact that u always get attacked by mobs makes the combat more like hit,hit evade and repeat repetitively without really reacting to whats happening on the battle.Combat can be satisfying but it has these serious problems that truly hold it back from being great and deep.

    In conclusion i give it a 7/10 it is a game with fresh ideas, excellent setting and atmosphere,engaging story and there is some fun to be had by the combat but at the same time it is severely flawed in the battle department,difficulty imbalance and performance issues it has.I find it quite good but certainly overestimated and judging by the scores it got and from the fact that it is developed by a company that i absolutely love, i must say i am a little bit disappointed.    … Expand

    The story this far (8 hours playtime) is nothing special. Even though most of the side quests are standard fetch quests, they all have little twists and funny dialogues so they don't feel as bland as in many other games.

    The gameplay is where the game shines however and anyone who like Bayonetta will like this as well. The constant switch between third person, top down and side scrolling feels really fresh and unique as well. The games switches from a linear robot smashing prologue to an open world MMO-like game and then to something completely different. They have done a really good job of merging different genres into one game. Bosses are well designed and I seriously don't even want to know what goes on in the head of the designers, it's messed up, but in a good way!    … Expand

    Quiero empezar por lo más importante en un juego, antes que la experiencia de juego su apartado técnico y de más...
    Optimización: No es visto una tan mala en mucho tiempo, de tal punto que los usuarios han tenido que sacar su propio parche (lo cual me parece vergonzoso por parte de la empresa, en este caso Platinum Games) que en cierta manera mejora la experiencia de usuario. Nos enfrentaos nada más y nada menos a que el juego al ponerlo en pantalla completa automáticamente se pone en 4:3 cuando lo lógico es 16:9 y para más inri a una resolución inferior a la que tienes puestas en las opciones gráficas (las cuales son muy escasas), para que vaya a la resolución deseada y la pantalla a 16:9 tienes que poner el juego en modo ventana, algo incomprensible e incómodo a mi punto de vista ya que no te da la opción de poner el modo ventana sin bordes. Framerate decentemente estables aunque se notan ciertos tirones en zonas específicas de mapas, al haber muchas partículas en pantalla, etc. Cinemáticas capadas a 30fps (Me imagino que habrá sido para darle un toque más cinematográfico) pero que dan unos tirones que el juego se queda tiritando, personalmente creo que no le sientan bien y para colmo los subtítulos de los diálogos van retrasados respecto al sonido. El juego en ciertas ocasiones crashea y al no tener guardado automático vas a tener que volver a hacer cosas que ya habías hecho con anterioridad. No sé cómo esta empresa ha sacado el juego en estas condiciones la verdad y lo más sorprendente es que es Platinum Games que no es que estemos hablando de desconocidos.

    Jugabilidad: Resumidamente la veo simple y casual, me explico, antes de nada estamos hablando de un género Hack and Slash en el que apenas hay combos, solo tenemos 8 “Combos” posibles (Spamear X, spamear Y, mantener pulsado X, mantener pulsado Y, mientras corremos pulsar X, mientras corremos pulsar Y, en el aire pulsar X y en el aire pulsar Y.) sin time in ni combinación entre comando y comando ya que no existe en este juego cosa que me parece ridícula a diferencia de la mayoría del mismo género, también podemos esquivar con el botón RT y si lo hacemos en el momento justo seremos recompensados elevando al enemigo por los aires. Como veis para ser del genero hack and slash es bastante simple y sin variedad lo cual puede hacer monótono y repetitivo los combates, pero hay que recalcar que según las armas que llevemos equipadas tendrá diferentes animaciones y estas son bastante buenas.
    El juego también tiene toques RPG lo cual le sienta bastante bien, nuestro personaje 2B (de la que hablaremos después.) ira adquiriendo experiencia según venzamos enemigos y completando misiones y se ara cada vez más fuerte, a esto le sumamos que disponemos de unos chips de ampliación (que iremos consiguiendo comprado a mercaderes, repartidos por el mapa o venciendo a enemigos) que mejoraran la capacidad física de nuestra protagonista que iremos añadiendo a nuestra barra según la ampliemos comprándosela a los distintos mercaderes que hay repartidos por el mapa.
    Una cosa que me ha sorprendido mucho de este juego es que en distintas zonas del mapa o según por donde estemos pasando la cámara cambiara de una vista en tercera persona a una vista a un juego bit em up o a una vista desde arriba. Me a parecido muy interesante y la verdad es que funciona bastante bien.
    El mapa se siente vacío y la verdad, no dan ganas de explorarlo y es muy monótono. Este se separa en varias zonas, por ejemplo tenemos la ciudad en ruinas del principio del juego y el desierto. Las zonas se diferencian mucho entre ellas.
    La banda sonora del juego es bastante buena y hace bastante acto de presencia lo cual me parece muy positivo pero solo le veo una pega, al pasar por diferentes zonas del mapa cambia y no se molestan ni tan siquiera en hacer un fundido para pasar de una canción a otra y esta cambia de repente, lo cual contrasta mucho y pierde encanto.

    Personajes: Nuestra protagonista es un androide femenino llamado 2b y tendremos una acompañante llamada 9s. Los dos tienen grandes diseños y muy bien planteados al igual que su universo pos apocalíptico y bien estructurado. La dirección de arte en ese aspecto es magnífica.
    Los enemigos no tienen un gran diseño y son simplones y siempre ejecutan los mismos ataques una y otra vez, pero los enemigos finales dan gloria con ataques muy variados y se hacen combates espectaculares y muy disfrutables.

    Conclusión: Estamos ante un hack and slash con toques de rpg simplón y casual pero que si te engancha la historia (no la he mencionado porque creo que es mejor descubrirla en primera persona) y te atrapa su universo es disfrutable. (Recomiendo jugarlo en consolas ya que en pc el juego se cae a trozos.)    … Expand

    Story style is like other anime; But want point out that anime is heavily influenced by classic Italian Cinema ( movies like warriors of the wasteland 2020) and classic Italian Opera. And that's what it is.
    Soundtrack is on the other hand stellar. Can hear many composition style influences, from Polish and Bulgarian, to German. And it drives the game. I've listened to this soundtrack more then I've played. All in all it's worth getting at a discount. I'm waiting for the third game and meanwhile maybe I'll check out Replicant.    … Expand

    Nier Automata is another hack n slash from Platinum, with Square Enix's Yoko Taro at the helm. This is a beautiful and deep game, with multiple endings, lots of side content and fantastic critique of human culture and society, while being quite fun to play. the combat is slick, smooth and mechanically sound. It's not DMC4, but each type of weapon does have its own moveset. I do wish for more moves, as it gets repetitive very quickly. Some of the side missions also are frustrating and unrewarding. The RPG-esque Chip system is a fun way to tweak your experience and try out some silly playstyles. The story is fantastic and self contained, but ties into other Yoko Taro's work, if you have played Nier or Drakengard. the characters are fantastic, with depth and terrific voice acting to back up their struggle and story. However, you can run the risk of over levelling yourself like crazy, but that's the problem of many RPG hack n slashers. you can perfect dodge everything with skill, or just be a clown with 4x more health than the enemy. You set your difficulty accordingly, so those looking for a challenge should limit themselves.

    However, Square Enix has decided that this game doesn't need a good port, and unfortunately comes it many, many problems. 1080p and above doesn't work properly, forcing a bordered 720p image and creating a blurry mess. The game also locks itself improperly to 30 FPS all the time. fullscreen doesn't work correctly, and the game is poorly optimized. Digital Foundry on youtube has a much better explanation on the problems of the PC port.
    HOWEVER, there is a fix, one that solves all of these problems and makes the game a fantastic experience. Kaldaien's Special K mod for Nier:Automata fixes many of the games' problems while also allowing even higher quality options for those with an extra beefy rig.

    This game is worth it. i want to give it a 9 or even maybe a 10.However, it is currently broken on Steam and therefore does not gain my approval for anything higher than a 7. Fan-made mods do not change my score, as it is not part of the product.

    TL:DR grab it on sale, google the fan made patch, have fun.    … Expand

Narrative tries to explore the theme of humanity but it drops the ball by making all the characters human. Yes they are humans, They might say they are androids or machines or whatever. But make no mistake they are humans. There is nothing alien or artificial about them, We have a typical teenage boy. A typical "grizzled old cop" in form of 2B (God I cringe every time her name is uttered. Yeah really deep developer "too be or not to be" I never heard that one before), it is an equivalent of artist stripping naked covering themselves in honey and fecal matter, yelling to high heavens "Look at how deep I am. Pay attention to me I am an artist. I am an artist". This makes the story shallow and cringy but it would be bearable if the game did not put the focus on it. As it is it comes out as condescending treating the player as a dumb peasant that "just would not get it if we do not hammer it in".
    in short if you care about silly things like story do not buy it. if you want a pretty spectacle with awesome music buy it. Also buy OST it is worth every penny. if you find yourself skipping dialog and cut-scenes do not feel bad. Everything uttered out of characters mouths is garbage. Make your own story.

    My god, what a B**** this game was to get working well on PC. Gotta mod the heck out of it.

    Unfortunately the raving reviews got my expectations way too high for this game. It's nowhere near as good as people are claiming. Good: Sexy android. Bad: The male android costume is the polar opposite of the female one. It's ugly as hell. Stupid lack of save function made me have to    My god, what a B**** this game was to get working well on PC. Gotta mod the heck out of it.

    Unfortunately the raving reviews got my expectations way too high for this game. It's nowhere near as good as people are claiming.

    Good:
    Sexy android.

    Bad:
    The male android costume is the polar opposite of the female one. It's ugly as hell.

    Stupid lack of save function made me have to replay the first hour of the game multiple times. It also makes it really annoying to tweak and mod the game since you have to play through a good amount of the game before you can get to a section where you can test stuff. And you have to do that over and over.

    Tediously long boss fights.

    The combat isn't particularly appealing. Clanging metal on metal rarely is. The only motivation I have to engage enemies is to level up. Dull. It's frequently mindless, repetitive, and monotonous. And even leveling up isn't rewarding. Nothing significant seems to occur when you gain a level.

    You get a partner at one point and their outfit is very similar to yours, to the point where it's confusing to be able to tell what character you're controlling during some battles. And even more so when they throw in an enemy that also looks extremely similar.

    Another part of the game you're given a different companion and it positions itself between your character and the 3rd party camera, thus blocking your view of your character. Ridiculous.

    Enemies drop items during fights, but those items disappear pretty quickly, so you have to concentrate on both fighting and picking stuff up at the same time. Annoying and dumb.

    For some unapparent reason there's a mouse cursor visible all the time, even after disabling a second one with a mod. And during some parts of the game where you're in a flying combat unit the crosshair it gives you is not highly visible and easily lost track of.

    In other fights it's just pure visual chaos, to the point where you have no idea what's going on.

    At first the way it would lock your camera, switch angles, and remove control from you was just slightly annoying, but then it did it during a fight at it was absolutely awful.

    Then some stupid hacking mechanism continually popping up during a boss battle.

    Navigation and map system is awful. It's very hard to figure out where to go based on the map, and I have to press multiple keys and buttons to get to the map. It's very tedious. Fast travel doesn't unlock till late in the game after you've already had to run back and forth long distances. And it's got nothing to do with realism either, because there are many things about the game that don't even attempt to be realistic. So they just make you run back and forth long distances for no reason. And then at the end of the game they want you to play through the whole thing again to see another ending?! Ha! Yeah right!

    There's a part of the game where I need to get to the top of a tall building. I spend a minute climbing a ladder the whole way up only to find out there is no access to the top via the ladder. This game is awful.

    The item system is very unintuitive. I mostly just ignored it. They don't tell you what anything is or what anything does. You have to look it all up online. Ridiculous.

    They make you press a button to pick up items even though you'll want/need to pick them all up. There are no items you don't need/want to pick up.

    There are regular times where I'm left with no quests and no markers of where to go, and I have to look up online what I'm supposed to do next. And it's not like it's an open world where you can choose what to do. No, there's only one thing for you to do, they just won't tell you what it is.

    I had a bunch of active quests, but apparently I triggered some unobvious point in the storyline and all the quests went away. The game seems designed so that you have to do all side quests as soon as you get them.

    There are major items and upgrades that you would only find either by luck or by learning about it on the internet.

    The production value is fairly mediocre. Many of the characters you interact with don't even have speech, you have to read the text conversation.

    The world visuals aren't appealing, so I don't find enjoyment in exploring and discovering new areas. Most of the game takes place in a few areas that you keep going back to.

    I see people praising the story, but even as an avid science fiction reader I don't find it particularly good. The android characters continually make nonsensical statements about other robots' mental capacity, as if they are drastically different from the androids, even though androids are simply robots in a humanoid body. After watching a full playthrough of the game, there seems to be a number of plot holes.

    The people saying this game is 10/10 are out of their dam minds.    … Expand

    Would like to put 10 points. The game has many cool aspects: fighting, locations, soundtrack, 2B herself. But the story is so depressive, that it breaks any good impressions. I just don't get why players and game creators like those negative emotions so much. All those tears, screams, deaths. Is their life so happy and carefree that they want to see some depressive content at least in the game?

The setting is an open world, so there's a lot of landscape to explore, but I can't say there's too many interesting points of interests around. Neither did I have incentive to do much side missions because they felt rather repetitive. Though the areas you visit during the main campaign are very cool. I really like the apocalyptic world they created.

    The story is captivating, and keeps you hooked to see how it plays out. Seeing the protagonists progress along their story is interesting. If you don't like the regular ending, there's actually 26 more to unlock, which is an absolute overkill in my opinion. I felt this was a negative for me. I wanted more questions answered after the first play through, but realized I needed to replay it at least 3 times to get the explanations I wanted, and I simply don't have time for that. Plus the extra playthroughs overlap a lot meaning you'll see a lot of the same cutscenes and gameplay.

    Overall, the game is a fun hack and slash, with a decent story as well. If you want the full story and experience, you'll definitely have to playthrough the game multiple times though.    … Expand

Throughout my experience I was equally enjoying myself as well as irritated.

    The game tries to hybrid a fast paced action game with RPG elements, but ultimately the RPG elements feel like they detract from the combat IMO.

    +It's fun to string together heavy and light attacks and timing your dodges. It very fast, allowing you to skirt around your enemies and launching attacks from nearly any available angle. It's not very hard arguably. Most of the fun comes from perfecting your attacks, timing your dodges and stringing combos.
    +The story is relatively entertaining and leaves a strong impression with a lot of people. It is a layered story, where the more you progress through the game, the more past story beats are contextualized and given meaning. The story especially towards the end can rouse an emotional reaction.
    +It controls quiet well. There is a sense of fluidity and seamlessness as you weave in and out of combat.
    +It's premise is at its core themed around existentialism, which can be interesting if your into that topic.
    +Side quests generally expand the scope of the game's story and theme. Sometimes they can be a bit annoying or arbitrarily gatekeep you with level requirements.

    -The game just doesn't feel as satisfying as i thought it would. It does a lot of things but doesn't truly commit to one. It likes to combine elements from different genres, such as RPG's but also occasionally bullet hells and sidescrollers/top down type of games by forcing the camera. While the premise is cute, it ultimately feels just like a distraction from the games core gameplay (which is also the most rewarding); the melee action.
    -Forced perspectives, while occasionally cute are mostly just annoying, especially if they make a combat encounter harder (Robot singer boss fight and Jackass's fight experiments are good examples). The game doesn't need them.
    -Playing as 9S sucks. He doesn't have a heavy attack, instead an OP hacking minigame, meaning you lose a lot of the fluidity and grace of playing as 2B/A2. Your left with mostly just spamming light attack or hacking if the enemy has too much health. It's boring and a downgrade gameplay wise to play as him.
    -The open world is really small. You are going to retread through a lot of the same environment. It is also quiet bland in a way, but i guess that is typical of many Japanese games. Overdesigned main characters in an underdesigned environment. Even the enemies are just literal tincans with appendages and dots for eyes.
    -There is not a lot of enemy variety and their attacks patterns are really simplistic.
    -A2 as a character could have been more developed.
    -The difficulty settings are quiet strange. Normal difficulty is almost too easy while hard is way too hard strangely enough. On normal you'll barely take any damage from getting hit while on hard you'll get one-shot by almost any attack that isn't meant to be pathetically weak. It's quiet jarring.
    -The PC port of this game could be better. Certain issues you could have with the game could require mods to solve.

    This is a good game experience mired with irritations. I feel like the core gameplay and general feel of this game would benefit greatly from a more honed focus on doing one type of gameplay well instead of what we have now, where it feels like there is a good game with a lot of **** stapled on. I whish it was a more consistent experience. I like the fluidity of movement and combat and the gradual progression through the experience is somewhat satisfying.

    It is a good game but it is not as good as they say. It's an above average anime romp with maid outfits.

    Buy this game only if you are a weeb and open to a more experimental experience. It helps to be open minded when going into this game. It does not deliver as a action game in a satisfying way ultimately but there is still some fun to be had. Its current asking price is fair. If you just like a good story then you can't go wrong if you have the time to spare (Ca. 25-30 hours including side quests). Ultimately I left this game dissatisfied and slightly enraged. Not because it was a bad game perhaps, but because of the lost potential and all of the over-the-top glowing reviews that seem to gloss over it's flaws.    … Expand

    It's a game without any particular strengths. The charm of the characters is the only thing that keeps some people playing.

    Sometimes frustrating but always compelling, Nier: Automata is a wondrous and strange experience that could only ever be a game. [Issue#261, p.60]

    This unusual action game set in an offbeat world created by Taro Yoko is a treasure trove of pleasant surprises. It's not often that we meet such a stylish, offbeat, memorable game.

    There is no doubt that Nier Automata is a great game, but the PC version does not do it justice. A new case of a shameless port for PC.
