    Die englische Sprachausgabe ist auch wirklich großartig, da gibt´s kein Bedauern über eine fehlende deutsche. Ich bin gerade beim zweiten Ende, der Anfang davon ist erstmal ein halbes E-Book, danach wiederholt man die Main-Kämpfe und Wege dorthin und habe jetzt erstmal keine Lust mehr.

    18/20. Absolutely wonderful. Devola’s music has a lot to do with it. The universe is awesome, mysterious and charming, that mix between sweetness and coldness is so good. I can see the berserk inspiration for the character design in part 2. Gameplay does the job. I definitely prefer the coldness of nier over FF warmness.

In some aspects it exceeds Automata, mainly with characters who are much more colourful and more entertaining then those in Automata. But in terms of fetch quests it is way way worse. Both games suffer from similar bad design issues thought, as fetch quest in Automata are also tedious and combat although smooth and flashy gets quickly repetitive. Later on in the game enemies just become damage sponges. But I think that's because of small worlds both games have, although both have nice vistas to look at. I recon that if the worlds would be bigger and more intricate, combat would be good enough. Story is not bad and better then in Automata. Music is again fantastic and drives the playthrough. But just like with Automata where I only completed Route A and didn't want to play more, here I'm not even sure if I will complete the game. I probably will, but at least half of the game is a slog. I had much more fun with Trials of Mana remake. That one, although much more simple in its design, is way more entertaining. Still, I recommend this one at a discounted price.… Expand

Diğerleri bu işi o kadar kötü yapıyorlar ki özensizlikten de kötü gerçekten beceriksizlik var bu işte. İnsan bakınca kötü olduğunu anlar, ya biz bunu böyle yapmayalım der çünkü.

    Açık dünya allaha emanet. Farklı görevler için bom boş, 2003'ten kalma dandik grafikli, keşfedecek hiçbir şey olmayan aynı yerleri tekrar tekrar oynuyoruz. İnsafsızlar fast travel da koymamış, oyunun sonlarına doğru öyle bir özellik geliyor da o da pek kullanışlı değil. Amatörce ve salakça bir oyunun süresini uzatma hamlesi.

    Nier Automata gibi hikayesiyle vurucu olur sandım ama değildi. Emil'in ölüm sahnesi fena değildi bir tek.

    B sonu da tam bir hayal kırıklığıydı. Boşuna aynı yerleri bir daha oynadım. Nier Automata'da aynı yerleri oynadıktan sonra epey devam ediyordu hikayenin kalanı. Bunda o da yoktu.

    Oynanış olarak sıkıcıydı. Düşmanlar çeşitli değildi. Yaptığımız şey baştan sona aynıydı. Bazı boss'lar fena değildi.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Nier replicant 1.22 is a video game remake of Nier replicant from 2010. The game was directed by Yoko Taro who directed Drakengard 1 and 3 and supervised Drakengard 2 and is the creator of the Nier franchise.

    The story of Nier replicant 1.22 is a well-thought-out story, but with lacking background in the game. The story builds from Drakengard ending E where Angelus and Caim enters a world similar to ours. However, it is not necessary to play Drakengard to enjoy Nier. The story does however fall somewhat as the plot twist is what makes the story deeper than the average Hero story. Together with extra material after ending A and B makes the story more interesting following as more information is uncovered for the player.

    The characters are fun and interesting part of the game. They add flavour with each other’s personality as they complement each other. They motivate each other and has fun dialogue with each others. Kaine’s intense and foul-mouthed personality together with Emil’s shy and kind-hearted or Kaine and Grimoire Weiss insulting each makes the game funnier and more interesting to play.

    The music of the game is overall good, with some pieces better than others. One of the better music pieces in the game is Shadowlord. Where the music becomes more intense as the boss fight goes on, causing the flow of the battle in increase. Another well done music piece is the end credits song which has well organized with its instrument and vocals working together to create a melodious music piece.

    The gameplay of Nier is in my opinion the most boring part of the game. The game combat is average at best, thanks to the magic you can use in the game. The game otherwise a normal hack and slash game where you cut down enemies with different weapons such as swords or spears.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While it may be off putting to some, NieR Replicant manages to deliver a more compelling story, combat, and music than NieR Automata.

    The big problem with NieR Replicant are the actual quests, it involves dealing with a lot of **** just to get to your objective, at first you dont see the point of how helping a guy with his delivery letter would help you find your sister, and honestly, it doesnt make a lot of sense, the game takes a bit too much detours from its original objective, so i can definitely see why people may find the story boring, however you need to judge it by what it is, the story is pristine, it delivers a lot of great messages and meaning, the bosses have awesome story and personality, the characters are fantastic, the powers and overall backstory of each characters is amazing as well!

    The new ending for this re-release is great, you can finally play with kainé, which has been a request among the community for a while, you feel like you are actually fixing things and brings back memories from Automata, while maybe not being as impactful as Automata's E ending, but nevertheless, i dont have anything else to complain.

    The game is absolutely amazing, groundbreaking experience. definitely recommend it. and the pc port also is great.    … Expand

However, outside of its incredible story and characters, the game is an average action RPG. Toylogic did a fairly decent job remastering the game and improving the combat but I personally feel Toylogic was limited in what they were able to change. Changing the game and/or structure could have made some story beats different although I feel it wouldn’t have taken too much away. The game forces you to replay the 2nd half of the game at least 3 times to get all the endings. It’s nice that they insert more lore and context into the story for each subsequent playthrough, but it doesn’t make playing through the exact same missions and story beats any less tedious. This also brings the issue of making it unclear which cutscenes or dialogues are ok to skip on each subsequent run. And the new contexts usually amounts to somewhere between 15 minutes to an hour of new context. As someone who doesn’t like watching the same cutscenes over and over again, this was a major personal gripe for me. Because of the tedium, it’s hard to give this game too much praise in the gameplay department. If the game had a run-of-the-mill story, I would probably give this game a fairly average score, but the story was so good that it saves what would have been a monotonous action RPG.… Expand

    NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139 is an extremely well-thought-out remaster that puts our resilience to the test, with a fantastic story and captivating characters. It does not completely let go of its origins, which at times are somewhat painful. It's a difficult love affair, it demands a lot of our time but it rewards us with one of the most curious and interesting stories of its genre.
