    A really beautiful game that surpass my expectation.
    Almost everything in this game awesome, the story & plot, the musics, the action/battle, world setting and characters. The game that you must play to understand how good it is and get full experience in a good way.
    Yoko Taro and Platinum game did a good job on this game, this is definitely a gem in PS4.

    The game can be a grind but believe me when I say that no video game EVER has used the medium of video games better than Nier: Automata. The story is sometimes boring though when it is good, its insanely introspective and philosophical. The last choice in the game is one of the best choices ever presented in gaming history

    Un juegazo increíble, con una historia maravillosa y llena de momentos inolvidables.

    Cuando hace unos pocos meses me decidí embarcar en esta obra de arte llamada NieR: Automata, lo hacia con la expectativa de encontrarme un videojuego de ROL Japonés normal y corriente, eso si, con un estilo de combate en la jugabilidad muy llamativo que me encanto al verlo en diferentes gameplays.
    Un juegazo increíble, con una historia maravillosa y llena de momentos inolvidables.

    Cuando hace unos pocos meses me decidí embarcar en esta obra de arte llamada NieR: Automata, lo hacia con la expectativa de encontrarme un videojuego de ROL Japonés normal y corriente, eso si, con un estilo de combate en la jugabilidad muy llamativo que me encanto al verlo en diferentes gameplays.

    Todo así comienza en una experiencia de juego tremenda, que durante las primeras 3 o 4 horas estaremos peleándonos con hacernos a los controles un tanto particulares, que dependiendo del escenario, la posición de la cámara y los enemigos deberemos ir variando. En toda esta encrucijada de situaciones, el videojuego no deja de sorprender en ningún momento, con escenarios que pasan de la expiración de mundo abierto, a secciones 2D de scroll lateral, o incluso también a secciones Shoot'em up al mas estilo de los Bullet Hell como Ikaruga u otros arcades de los 90.

    El combate principal esta basado en un estilo Hack and Slash, como bien saben hacer los de Platimun Games con anteriores títulos como Bayoneta o Metal Gear Rising, aun que este que han realizado para NieR: Automata en particular a mi gusto, se me hace el mas satisfactorio y resultón por las animaciones de combate de los diferentes personajes, que están tan sumamente bien detalladas, que cuando realizas ciertos combos a enemigos simplemente te deja asombrado las locuras increíbles capaces que se pueden ejecutar.

    En cuanto a la historia y personajes no debo, ni quiero contar mucho al respecto, pero lo que si quiero comentar es que jamás pensé que este juego al final me fuera a encandilar y maravillar por este apartado. Creo que es mejor que cada uno sin ninguna clase de spoiler lo descubra por si mismo. Eso si, debo decir que las primeras 10 horas de juego estaremos algo desubicados en cuanto a argumento, que poco a poco se ira desengranando, dando paso a cambios que para nada esperaremos y nos dejaran impresionados. Es un juego al que, por favor, hay que dedicar un mínimo de horas para que vaya enganchando, si llevas 5 o 6 horas jugando a Nier: Automata y ves que es algo que no va contigo, o que simplemente te esta aburriendo. Por favor, continua, y continúalo hasta el final verdadero, no te quedes a medias por nada del mundo. Te aseguro que merece mucho pero que mucho la pena todo lo que vas a vivir y sentir en cuanto a argumento y evolución de la trama. No tengas ansias de terminar el juego, simplemente ve dejándote llevar, y disfruta.

    La banda sonora es sencillamente hermosa, esta al nivel de las mejores bandas sonoras de la historia. Con un toque único, como es el de esta saga en muchos aspectos, canciones que carecen de sentido ya que las letras de estas composiciones están escritas en diferentes idiomas imaginándolos de cara al futuro como podrían sonar, pero no por eso son peores, de hecho es todo lo contrario, la logran dotar de una personalidad única, y con la que consiguen transmitir mucho, llegando a hacerte sentir, grandeza, melancolía, tristeza... y todo ello, con una vocalización llena de cariño y belleza en cada una de sus composiciones, con lo que son capaces de introducirte totalmente en el videojuego.

    Para mi NieR: Automata es sinónimo de, descubrimiento, humanidad, y por supuesto también de reflexión. Creo que nadie que finalice Nier: Automata puede quedar indiferente ante el. No voy a decir que me haya cambiado la vida, pero si que me ha dado motivación a pensar en ciertas cosas de manera diferente.

    Siempre van a faltar palabras para poder definir a un videojuego de estas características, pero en definitiva, es uno de los mejores juegos de esta generación. Y que para todo aquel que lo finalice, dejara un recuerdo y un pensar, que será inolvidable. Una obra de arte.

    A rough gem in need of polish in a lot of ways, limited but fun combat. At its heart is a fascinating world and a great story worth telling, despite the weak dialogue and shallow characters.

    A great game, with a great combat system and an interesting story that tackles complex and reflexive themes. The whole experience is brilliant, yet is hold back by repetition. The lasting impact it achieves on the player is remarkable, just see it until the very end credits roll

    Nier:Autómata es para mi uno de los mejores videojuegos de la historia. Tiene fallos, como una jugabilidad demasiado fácil y sencilla, poca variedad de enemigos, unas malas misiones secundarias...Pero con todos sus fallos, tiene una de las mejores historias que se han creado en el mundo de los videojuegos.
    En un futuro lejano, una raza de alienígenas dejó un ejército de máquinas en el planeta Tierra, obligando a la humanidad a retirarse a unas instalaciones en la luna. Los humanos crearon a los YORHA, un ejército de androides con la función de acabar con las máquinas y recuperar la Tierra.
    El juego nos pone en la piel de 3 personajes diferentes a lo largo de la aventura:
    2B, un androide femenino diseñado para el combate.
    9S, un androide masculino diseñado para reconocimiento con la habilidad de piratear a las máquinas.
    2A, una androide femenina también diseñada para el combate.
    Este juego se divide en rutas. Hay un final para cada letra del abecedario, pero los canon son el final A,B,C,D y E. Tendrás que completar el juego 3 veces para desbloquear los 3 finales principales, y después deberás hacer cosas específicas para el D y el E.
    No contaré nada más sobre la historia del juego, ya que perdería toda la gracia. Es un videojuego al que DEBES jugar si o si, una obra maestra diferente.
    Jugablemente, siendo un título de Platinum Games no decepciona. La jugabilidad es frenética, propia de un Hack and Slash y sus controles son intuitivos, con la presencia de algunos minijuegos de pirateo con el personaje 9S.
    La banda sonora del juego es magistral. Hay un tema para cada ocasión y todos son una delicia para los oídos.
    Gráficamente, el juego es regular tirando a malo. Su gama de colores es muy corta, los diseños de los secundarios dan pena, hay muchos dientes de sierra...
    Pero, ¿Os habéis dado cuenta de una cosa? Ya he dicho varios fallos del juego y no dudo de la nota que le he puesto. Simplemente, la historia hace que te olvides de cualquier fallo del juego.
    Os animo a que disfrutéis de esta obra de Yoko Taro.
    Gloria a la humanidad.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. personal appreciation of the game: 9.5/10
    Nier automata is one of the best games I have ever played in my 15 years ( i am 28 years old) as a ¨gamer¨ the lore/plot is top tier, worthy of 10/10 without a doubt, the combat gameplay is fast and enjoyable (60fps!!) you cant get bored playing as 2B*, the music is gorgeous is one of the best OST in the history of games (maybe i am overrating it. . . .but i doubt it. . .) i cant express with words how amazing is the music in the game, there are only 2 ¨bad things¨ about nier utomata:
    one is the graphics, that are kinda lame for being released in 2017, but is worth for having 60 fps on Ps4.
    the second one has a spoiler:
    the game has 3 principal routes, A, B and C, A and C are top tier and worth all the time you can spend in the game, but route b. . . . you play as 9s he´s clearly not a fighter so the combat gameplay gets from 10/10 to 3/10 (is like being in heaven and then fall to the ground!) is really bad but to get route C you have to pass route B . . . so the game gets boring. apart from that, the lore revealed in route B worth the whole route. you cant get disappointed with the game if you haven't played it go and buy it is amazing!

    I originally skipped Automata because I just thought it would just be a stupid game about a robot in a short skirt. Never have I ever been so wrong in my life, the story for this game was down right amazing and the soundtrack was down right chilling and gave me goosebumps during certain scenes. I don't want to give anything a away but the twists and turns of this game will have you holding your controller in your hand and just staring at the screen in shock and awe. Theres not much else to say about this game, go and buy it right now and you will not regret it.

    On a less positive note I do feel the only fan service thing of the game is a bit ridiculous given the atmosphere of the world and the seriousness of the plot the fan service really has no place in the game and originally made me skip it. However do not make the same mistake I made, go buy it.

    I hold FFX to a high standard and I believe Automata is better if not at the same level of FFX in terms of story and soundtrack

    I cannot stress enough how imperative it is to see this game to the end to really understand everything that is going on.

    It does have its faults for e.g. the button mashy combat with little variety in moves and facing robots for the entirety of the game doesn't sound like the best type of enemy variety but with a story that packs this much of a punch, you would be doing yourself a disservice to toss this to the side because of it. Its variety of playstyles that ranges from games from the 80s and 90's up to modern-day makes up for the combat though.

    This game is a masterpiece that will make you go on an emotional rollercoaster that is unlike any game I've ever played. Going through subject matter most critically acclaimed directors wouldn't dare attempt to approach.

Ok now to the best thing about the game, the combat it’s satisfying simple and at the same time complex, the leveling up system and the many options available to upgrade are all great and fun. The open world and quests aren’t huge but they do their job and are quite entertaining sometimes. The soundtrack though oh my god, the soundtrack is perfect it’s engaging at times chaotic at times, and relaxing at times, it’s the best part of the game by far. Nier Automata might not be a masterpiece but it had the potential with its amazing combat system great story and masterful soundtrack, would recommend this game truly just don’t expect the games story to be perfect like many say, it’s still a god damn engaging video game at the end of the day .

    A game which truly transcends genres and pushes the limit of medium itself. The philosophical themes, the gameplay elements, the multiple endings all converge to serve a single coherent purpose - posing the most important question to the player. Only negative is that combat can be a little boring and repetitive.

The plot mainly follows the journey of 2 Androids, 2B and 9S who are part of a foundation named YoRHa created to wipe machines out of existence. Humans have fled from the machine infestation to the moon, and it is up to YoRHa to make the earth omce again a hospital place. The story on paper, is very simple, but once you dive in deeply into the narrative being told her you find yourself questioning a lot of what seems to be a mystery in our life. God, life, death, love, beauty, fear, despair, conflict; all of these and more are subjects that the game tackles either subliminally or explicitly, and its beyond extraordinary the way this game handles these several sensitive topics. Make sure to play through all the routes to get the full experience though, endings A to E are the main endings that YOU MUST play for the real experience. Gameplay wise, it features multiple perspectives and gameplay elements that correlate together seamlessly, sometimes the game is a hack and slash rpg, other times its 2D platformer, other times its a hacking simulator. You might be confused with all these thinking that sounds horrible but trust me it is the absolute opposite. It all just works astonishingly here with little to no flaws and absolutely no disruption to your immersion. The soundtrack is hands down the best OST you'll ever hear in a video game ever and it'll trigger your goosebumps like no other in a very good way. If you still haven't, please get this game and give it a try, you won't regret it. (Once again play through all the routes it's extremely important)

    Whoever plays this game until the end and is not emotionally moved by it is less of an human-being than 2B ever was.
    The music is perfect, the story makes total sense as soon as you get it, the game's got nice plot twists here and there and the game itself just has too many layers of story-telling which makes this whole thing as perfect as it is.

    Pros: Great story, amazing soundtrack, fast paced battles, lots of hidden little secrets, above-average replayability, interesting characters, mostly open exploration.

    Cons: Only 4 weapon styles, no autosave (not usually problematic, but is a hassle if the game crashes, which it sometimes does), some grindy element to 100% it.

    But all in all it is amazing. If you're looking to get completely absorbed by a great story that leaves you asking yourself complex questions, this is the game for you.

    Der Nachfolger zum durchwachsenden, aber legendären NieR, ist sicherlich einer der Überraschungserfolge dieser Konsolengeneration. Überzeugten die Vorgänger im NieR Rollenspieluniversum bereits mit ihrem eigenständigen Setting, schwächelten sie leider bezüglich des Gameplays.

    Mit dem Bayonetta Entwickler Platinum Games, stieg nun aber eines der innovativsten Gamestudios der letzten Jahre in das Franchise mit ein und liefert mit NieR:Automata ein Action Feuerwerk ab, das seinesgleichen sucht.

    Der einzigartige Gameplay Mix aus klassischem Shoot'em Up, Hack'n Slay, Puzzle und Geschicklichkeitseinlagen spielt sich so dermaßen rund und flüssig, wie kaum ein anderes Actionspiel der letzten Jahre. Das Setting des NieR Universums erzählt zudem eine erwachsene, typisch japanische SciFi Mär, die auch vor philosophischen Fragen keine Scheu hat. Das innovative Spielkonzept entfaltet sich zudem nicht nur hinsichtlich des Gameplays, sondern auch in der Erzählstruktur des Titels. So reicht bei NieR:Automata nicht etwa ein Spieldurchlauf um die Geschichte zu einem Ende zu bringen. Nein, wir gehen das Spiel letztlich in mindestens zwei Durchläufen an, die wir mit unterschiedlichen Hauptcharakteren absolvieren, um zu guter Letzt gar noch einen dritten Charakter und weiteren Content freizuschalten.

    Wenngleich Style und Design großartig, sowie Präsentation und Inszenierung auf durchgängig hohem Niveau sind - letztlich ist NieR:Automata kein AAA Titel, sondern wurde mit einem kleineren Budget realisiert. Das zeigt sich vor allem in der Spielewelt, die im Gro doch etwas trist wirkt und durchaus auch etwas größer hätte ausfallen können. Dennoch, NieR:Automata ist ein absolutes Kleinod unter den Action RPGs und spielerisch nahe an der Perfektion. Ein Must Play für jeden Fan des Genres.

The battle in the game provides the player few choices of fighting strategies, either close combat or ranged weapons can be used pretty freely in most battles, with a few additional more creative battle modes added later in the game. There are also shoot-em-up style battles and something that could be best called as twin-stick shooter. The controls are solid and most deaths are due to player's mistakes, though it won't happen very often in my experience. The graphics are okay, I understand that there's a theme but it's very monochromatic and especially hard to read if you are playing on a moderate sized television and further than a few metres away, as is usual in console gaming; it's all light brown on dark brown or vice versa.

She wears borderline fetish gear, with a much too short dress, garters, and fishnets, and the only thing managing to keep this game as M rated, is a VERY thin strip of white cloth, barely covering her genitals, and wedged between her asscheeks (and her uhh, "Lips" as much as I hate to say it). There is one other uniform in the game, and it's a ridiculous suit of armor, requires very specific story choices, and takes about 30 hours too reach. The DLC has a "revealing outfit"(as if the default one isnt revealing enough) which is one thigh-high, and a nightgown.

    Everytime you run, jump, or climb a ladder, between wind picking up her dress, and some crazy "coincidental" camera angles, you get your camera pointed directly at her exposed caboose, and numerous cutscenes show you ass and cameltoe.

    and don't you dare tell me this is empowerment, or story accurate. This is the same as Quiet in metal gear, or the female armor in monster hunter. Japanese games tend to not treat women the same way as western games. That's it. One of the devs even said he solely chose it cause it's hot.

    It's not. It's cringey. It's like watching a Tarantino movie, but it's ALL footscenes. Like "come on bro? have you no shame". I don't honestly care that much about feminism or things like that, and I don't care if someone objectifies a fictional person, but it's ridiculous that the devs force us to stare at that BS. Grow the **** up. It's greasy.

    The story is a slow unraveling mystery that keeps me coming back. The fun gameplay has me addicted and the music is a top-tier epic game soundtrack that’s cinematic. The graphics are perhaps average to slightly above average for PS4, there are some cool effects, some beautiful scenery and some unfortunate pop-in in places.

    I’m addicted to the gameplay/combat and the story... well the story has shook me through the multiple playthroughs. This game is extraordinary and I don’t know what can follow it to play next. This is a story-driven action RPG, a it’s a hack & slash and a dash of shoot em up. To put it simply, it’s a must-buy for the PS4.

    NieR Automata: Beyond Gods Edition was a total shock to me with how much I enjoyed it. It takes a very solid experience for me to enjoy an RPG lately and NieR grabbed me quite well from the beginning and kept me entertained throughout. It's the type of game where I want to do everything that I possibly can just to make the experience longer - a type of game I rarely find nowadays. I went into NieR Autamata with no expectations other than the good gameplay that I usually find from Platinum Games, I went away floored with a near perfect action game.

    NieR: Automata is not for everybody. In fact, the game looks to be aimed at the most refined fans of the medium by not caring about the regular gaming conventions, in the same way the works of David Lynch are perfect for the hardcore moviegoers.
