![เกิดใหม่ทั้งทีก็เป็นสไลม์ไปซะแล้ว ซีซั่น 3 - ตอนที่ 59 [ซับไทย]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/GmW4a8prWUQ/mqdefault.jpg)
2B- "To be or not to be", Hamlet, Existentialism
9S- ''Ninus' Tomb", Midsummer Night's Dream, Dies Over and Over and Over
A2- "Et Tu, Brute?", Julius Caesar, Betrays the Other Androids
Jeezus christ...
Thanks!
Okay. I only picked up on 2B myself. That’s actually kinda cool.
That "A2" one seems like a bit of a stretch compared to the other ones.
2B and A2 were the ones I immediately got, but 9S I didn't get. Cheers!
Holy crap, that's a great point! Thank you for sharing this!
"I want it on record that every fucking time i googled Nier automata cover I'd get links to japanese love pillows with 2B on them"
~Yahtzee
It's all dakimakuras
what the fuck
But 'tis not troo! I just googled eet.
What, you didn't think Google kept track of your search history?
Google: You're thinking about how much you want to ****** 2B, aren't you?
HAHAHAA I laughed my ass off at that part. The comment in the vid was even funnier. Someone said along the lines of " I think by this point in the game we all wanted to fuck 2B"
"I wanted to make a shooting game, but Square wouldn't give me any money for that. So, we had to put RPG elements into the game, to appease them." -Yoko Taro
Fun fact: there are more polygons on 2B's ass then there are in the entirety of Ocarina of Time
edit 3-4 years later: this is 100% not true.
i can't believe i even thought this was plausible LOL
Jobl ii I can actually believe that...
You're kidding
And how many songs are in 2Bs ass?
There are more polygons on 2B's ass than stars in the universe.
That was actually debunked. Links model has about 1/3 of the polygons in 2Bs ass
The game lets you play as 2b or not 2b
Daniel Minshull W
As a learned construction draftsman I'm not impressed, I want to play as 4h.
The former, my dear Hamlet...
I prefer the former
Oh dear...
2bOne butt the size of 2
"I just really like girls"
-Yoko Taro, Nier: Automata directer
Maybe if you liked game design as much as ass Nier wouldn't have been a masterpiece
relatable.
Based. Better than a lot of modern devs who go "WE NEED TO MAKE A FEMALE PROTAGONIST THAT WOMEN CAN IDENTIFY WITH SHAVE HALF A FEMALE CHARACTER MODEL'S HAIR OFF AND SLAP HER HEAD ON TOP OF A MUSCULAR MALE CHARACTER'S BODY OH BOY THIS SURE IS EMPOWERING TO WOMEN MAYBE THAT FEMINIST GIRL WILL FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE MY PRESENCE NOW!"
@@Phucketmcsucket Holy rent free
@@LewdSCP1471A rent free what? unattractive, buff women?
holy shit that last joke
was quite the bomb
FUCK
only a little boy would laugh at a joke like that
It was pretty explosive
Well it's pretty fucked, but I've heard that joke enough times to really not care anymore. Hiroshima jokes are fairly cliche.
0:40 "it TOO was a sequel to Drakengard!" **displays the only Drakengard game that Yoko Taro didn't make and isn't canon**
Dude is so full of shit lol they never said it was a sequel, it's an alternate universe
Josh Becton It is a sequel to drakengard, the ending where they go to earth and it wipes out humanity. Pretty simple to look into before you start accusing people of being full of shit
that had to have been on purpose.
@@jbwinning2011 it's a sequel to ending e of drakengaurd.
The only worthwhile thing about 2 is Caim and that scene where he bisects an entire platoon of soldiers with the biggest grin on his face while Manah shits her pants thoroughly.
He basically said: "It's fun."
you can kind of tell when Yahtzee likes a game
"It's fun but he doesn't know why"
And all I do is point to the thong and mini-skirts and ask "Why indeed?"
armaggedon390 more like "fun, but I can't explain why" as he even mentions he had little good to say about the game's individual parts yet he grew attached to it all the same.
In his own tsundere kind of way he says it's fun.
i was expecting him to use the stick figure showing hist skirt, from one of the episode about a good looking game on the ps3
10/10, would fight the credits again.
Other games did that previously though, even Smash Bothers.
@@residentgrigo4701 In other games there was no reason, though. Here, it's one of the character's goals, to kill the gods that made this situation happen.
no one cares about smash brothers. Even smash brothers players dont care about Smash brothers unless there's a new one coming out.
@@jroldo8353 that's just straight up wrong, Smash Bros players like Smash Bros, they play and care about Smash Bros, there's nothing else to say other than that you're dead wrong
@@thishandleistacken nier has thematic and narrative tied in reason so that was nice
"By the end of Nier, Far, Wherever you are I was quite into it and thought I was going to recommend it, but now that I've sat down to write it all up I'm like, 'Wait a second... If the combat was kind of lame and the open world was shitty and the main characters were underdeveloped (in every sens of the word), then what the hell did I like!?' "
-Yahtzee at 4:20
"...I'm sure in your middle school days or when you were younger there was a girl or boy that you liked. That person might not have been the most beautiful or the most funny. You weren't quite sure what the reason was, but you just liked that person for who they were..."
"... just like that memory of the first girl or boy that you liked back then, I'm hoping that Nier would be a game that would have a very fond place in your memories and your hearts. That's the hope that we have for this game."
-Yoko Taro at PAX East 2017
Oh, brother.
IT WAS HIM ALL ALONG
this makes me sad for some reason
@@SunlitSonata14272 the game was pretentious as fuck. Nothing to oversimplify. It just reminds me r/im14andthisisdeep.
That's kinda eerie…
"We drew the line at nuking Japan more than twice"
"We drew the line"
"We"
My my, Yahtzee, identifying with the natives already?
late to the party, but indeed.
*Cultural Appropriation intensifies*
Pardon my American, but is "natives" meant to refer to us? If so, it seems a bit rude considering how we treated the real Native people
@@fiaTheFae Chill your culturally sensitive butthole - they used the word native to refer to native citizens/residents. There are different uses for the word native you know - it isn't just used to refer to "Native Americans". Yahtzee moved to the US in 2016 - they are joking about his use of the word 'we' which would insinuate that he identifies as an 'American', thus the use of the word 'natives' as Yahtzee is not a native U.S. citizen. Oh and also, being part American Indian myself, I don't find it rude at all. But you know - that's just me.
@@macmcskullface1004 It feels like you're making a bigger deal out of my bigger deal. I was simply quelling his 'mild concern' by explaining why it was entirely unnecessary and how OP's normal use of the word 'natives' was not rude or insensitive
Or "we" as in The Allies.
"nuke me once shame on you
nuke me twice hentai's the price"
and then they decided to stop because secretly the higher ups in American military love themselves an anime girl
Hamyel Murica has been a closet weeb all along
Hamyel don't we all ;)
Hamyel it's why Kantai Collection is about anthropomorphized WW2 ships fighting.... aliens. in short skirts and thigh highs.
we've developed a symbiotic relationship, based on barely legals (pffft) in fetish cosplay.
Basically. Never understood why both have the hots for barely legal women though. Always come off as sketchy for me. =Y
it's nice when things work out, isn't it?
But didn't Planet of the Apes wait until the end of the movie to show that it was Earth all along? The very first shot of the player character in Nier is him sulking in an abandoned Blockbuster video outlet.
Yeah got the big twist completely wrong, the real twist was the Gestalt/Replicant project.
Blockbuster? So it takes place in 2010? xD
Considering that opening doesn't get an explanation, it's easy to assume that those events are going to happen later, or that it the main game is set in an alternate dimension that eventually goes to Earth. Also, Nier being set on Earth was never a plot point, the state of humanity was.
Mordalon
It does get an explanation doe.
:/
Right after that scene in the video store the game tells you its been like a thousand years. Nier being set on earth is important because of humans and how they react to things.
2:57 "but now you've got a gun"
pretty sure Grimoire Weiss had the exact same function in Nier
If only Grimoire Weiss let you swing your sword, too...
@@Diego3Ke You can do that in the remake and all I can say is that saying it makes the combat "trivial" would be drastically overstating its difficulty
Literally the first reviewer i've seen pronouncing "automata" correctly.
Let me guess, everyone else is saying "auto-may-ta?"
There's a different way to pronounce it?
Otto-mayta, otto-mah-ta, otto-matta, ott-tom-uh-tuh...
The official japanese pronunciation would be "oh-toe-mah-tuh"
I use "aw-toe-mah-tuh" myself.
It really doesn't matter. The word is soooo old no one uses it anymore except in this game and as the old plural for "automaton" or something.
Random Jim Sterling refers to the game as Nier: A-tomahtuh. (Near: A Tomato)
+Random You could spell it "oh-toe-mutter" or you could spell it "auto-martyr".
I wish I could Factorize 2B.
A2 is best girl
I prefer 2DD
Rival-Sama amongst many many other things yes
Sloshedtrain The Second A2 is 2B sister in a sense do I'm down with that 😁
Rival-Sama Are you Xyer Darks rival?
"Slotted in a lot of self heal abilities and never died again" it felt like that line was taken straight out of my playthrough
that
"HUMAN BEING
part 7,543,912,442
This time it's personal" joke killed me, and that last joke was gold as well!
BOI HE DID IT
Just noticed Mr. Clemps on here!
I'd upvote your comment, but it's at 69 likes right now and I think I'd like it to stay that way.
JackgarPrime there... 139
Ho boi, angry fanboy alert!
the nuking japan more than twice bout sums it up.
At the end of one of the creators interviews he said that the game is something that is like a middle school crush. That person may not be the prettiest or smartest person, but it still has a place in your heart. Kind of like how you felt about the game at the end of the review.
Edited for grammar.
This looks alright, but I'll hold out for Nier 3: He's an Egg Now
Nier 3: We somehow go back to fucking kingdoms and knights, but everyone's still a robot.
Nier 4: Actually Just Drakengard Again
Nier 4: He's a Squid Now
Nier 5: He's a Kid Now
Nier 6: We got Sued by Nintendo, Sorry for the Budget Cuts Fam
I'd like to thank whoever is actually properly making the captions for this.
Thank you!
Edit: I realized that Yahtzee has a secret message "installed" in the transcript:
"5:14 I want it on record that every f*ing time I Googled 'Nier Automata Cover' I'd get links
5:32 to Japanese love pillows with 2B on them"
Now I'm off to rewatch the whole series again to hunt for more secrets. o3o
Hmm, well this is illuminating. Sounds like the end credits one-liners.
Either way, the captions are all gone now, from what I can see.
Nope, I just saw them. They are definitely back, at least now.@@techsmechs2485
"Nier far wherever you are" these puns are on a new level.
I'm honestly more mad that you used Drakengard 2's cover instead of the original's than anything else. The original Drakengard was grey sludge with a weird, fucked up story and a joke ending that led to Nier, and Drakengard 2 was grey sludge with... well, somewhat okay combat and a plot with about as much taste and density as balsa wood.
Pay proper respects to playable grey sludge, damn it.
+Crafty Catgirl Well at the very least he didn't use Drakengard 3's cover. That game was just ass
I started to play D3, but the amount of sexual banter was just distasteful. I'm sure it gets better, but it's very questionable right where I am now.
+Trilby425 It uhhhh...doesn't
Ashuraman
Two is literally the only good thing about D3.
+LightAndDarkMdness02 I barely remember anything bout that game
Too Be? more like Boo te
well her reddit page is "2Booty"
If I'm a sequel in the game of life, then my character needs a patch updating his design and his personality.
Sorry, we only got expensive DLCs.
Allegory for my entire life.
Kiss-Shot Acerola-Orion Heart-Under-Blade Well you could buy the premium pass...but that does come with you signing away your soul.
Damn it, I already sold it so I could buy more crack
Character and personality comes from hardships. Anyone can be happy if they have their health, job, and friends.
The game doesn't just leave it's ideas unresolved. Ending E uses the idea of people helping each other and sacrificing despite their distances and differences to coincide with the notion that the androids and the machines both sought to be like humans, with their feelings and fears, and they had a lot in common.
Mordalon
Ending E is more so just Nihilism vs the Ultimate hope. That even though there is a pretty big chance 2B, 9S, and A2 will all just die again, there is also a small chance that they won't.
kyotheman69
You didn't have to if you didn't want to. The great part is you still did.
Ending E + CTRL+C + CTRL+V is the true best ending.
You can help people all day.
+kyotheman69 those 45 hours didn't go down the drain. You still experienced those events and reached the ending you wanted to get to.
You mean you Didn't do that in Automata to help other players ?
You monster.
Near a Tomato!
Nier arigato, Mr. Roboto!
Nier Autoerotic Asphyxiation
Nier: Sasheer Zamata
I'm late, but personally, some things that entertained me very deeply were trying to peek up 2B's skirt for the achievement, riding moose nowhere, literally blowing 9S' pants off and finding all of the amusing ways I could lose the game, like blowing up while in the homebase.
Or eating the fish that Jackass gave you. The game did warn you.
Hunting for all endings is the real sidequest in Nier.
I find it hard to believe anyone could fight the last boss of Nier: Automata and still that it "went nowhere" philosophically.
Maybe I was just an emotional wreck by that point, but it was one of the only actually cathartic moments I've ever felt from playing a video game.
ChibiKumaKab spoilers(?):
_Which last boss_
Tyler Warburton the damn Credit !
the credits after you get ending a b c and d
MyName AChef I know, Leon cleared that up for me. I thought he could've meant the superboss, which I happened to do after ending E.
You need to play better games :D
"Neir 3: He's an Egg Now" had me in stitches each time.
I’m pretty sure 9S is from the latin “non esse” which means something like “not to be” or “non existence” in Latin:
What if 9S' name is a reference to the old phrase "To the Nines" (2B 9S) meaning both "no expenses were spared" and in more modern contexts "dressed in an overly formal manner" since the androids are clearly quite an expensive project and despite technically not needing clothes at all besides maybe combat armor their current attire wouldn't look out of place at a fancy dinner party. So long as they took the blindfolds off and kept their swords under lock.
have you seen the YoRHa captain. She is wielding 4 Katanas, A buster blade, A spear and a pair of Giant Black gauntlets(Impact Bracers) and is wearing the equivalent of a skin tight armored wetsuit. She would be very out of place.
Clearly you go to the wrong kind of dinner parties! The boring kind!
Or you could mark this one off as Japan being Japan. Why the hell would you fight robots with a sword? Why make them look human at all instead of just terminators or something with human emotions? Thomas Was Alone told a whole story with colored blocks.
Actually that phrase has more meaning to the danger he poses and the real reason 2b is paired with him. Not to be overly spoiler.... he's TOO advanced. Which if you take dress in overly formal as also meaning to munch for it's own benefit, that meaning fits.
M16A41000 9S actually sucks with a sword... unlike Yahtzee said, he's not a combat model, so he's not great at it. he searches, analyzes and hacks.
So while 2B may sit there for 10 minutes, ineffectually beating on a gold-plated, transforming, bullet hell tank, 9S can blow it apart from the inside with only a few rounds of hacking... takes maybe like 2 minutes, tops.
Lets be honest though: that fight between Pascal and Engels is worth it in the end.
Angryboy It reminded me of the giant fights from Bayonetta!
... It wasn't.
IT REALLY WASN'T. NOTHING ABOUT THAT WAS OK.
I would have prefered fighting the Engles and the tanks as A2, wanted to put that berserk mode to good use.
Aww, some noobs didn't know that sequence had a block button, so you could wait for the longer wind up from your enemy to do your quicker down slash.
dont play on hard if you're not good enough to play on normal.
That last joke hit me harder than it would've hit Kokura.
God dammit Yahata this is why we have nice things.
4:33 A female robot with thigh-high boots. That's what you liked.
Don't forget the absolutely magnificent bum.
4:06 "Where the important climatic stuff happ--" goddang it, Yahtzee... I freakin' love it.
"That is why we drew the line at nuking Japan twice. " this line is even funnier when you know the full lore of Nier where they definitely did not draw the line at twice.
I actually loved pretty much all the side quests and was super invested in the characters myself.
Congrats your taste is shit
Na your free to like the game if you want personally I don't like shit though especially when that shit is treated like truffle chocolate
Ever wonder why apple skipped from 8 to X? Because 9s was already an android product.
I'm loving this game atm, but I can't believe you didn't mention the robot orgy!
That's what I was saying! I'm pretty sure a few of them were doing oral...
wtf lol
Say what? Are you serious?
@@explodingtomahawks7589 dead serious, but then the "orgy" doesn't involve any kind of genitalia, be it male or female, so it's more like "oil barrels doing suggestive poses" than an "orgy"
"Nier, far, wherever you are"
LOL
It's unlike anything I've played, 100% recommend it
Pc Genie
What he means is the experience touched him more than any game he's play beforehand.
I'd never had a root canal before my first one, but I sure as shit wouldn't recommend one after having experienced it.
The only thing about the combat I didn't like was the camera somehow expecting you to keep track of your position among a group of enemies and bullets with a companion who looks near identical with a camera angle more awkward than a spotty teen talking to a girl. Other than, I quite enjoyed it
Oh god, that joke at the end... So fucked up...
I love it.
Can't wait for Nier 3: Drakengard 5: Ikaruga 2: He's An Egg Now
Darkest Dungeon should be Good for yatzee
I downloaded that game again, and let me tell you how easy the game is when you start gambling on whether I can keep my characters in combat by healing them with 1 hp at death's door constantly. =Y
Pretty sure Darkest Dungeon was released over a year ago.
rustybender That never stopped him before. Just check all the videos made during the summer release schedule. That's usually when no new games arrive and Yahtz draws straws on which game from more than a year back he'll review to keep his utilities on.
And I agree with OP, I'd love to see Darkest Dungeon rip him a new ass, and then turn right around and get roasted by Yahtzee.
9S: "Where are my pubes?"
LMFAO.
"Maybe we're all just sequels in this great, disappointingly long-running franchise we call life".
Outstanding.
interestingly, all the playable androids names are types of pencil (2B), pen (9S) and paper (A2)
Yahtzee, the bullet hell guy and the action rpg guy are both yoko taro.
Nah, Yoko Taro is definitely the bullet hell guy. Square Enix is the action rpg guy.
@@Toksyuryel
So does that mean that Yoko Taro is biding his time before he can fill Square Enix full of holes in a parking lot?
i don't get how he can say this game does nothing with its philosophical concepts but he praised Bioshock Infinite which literally did nothing but just show you some stuff which looks "deep" on a surface level then just moved on expecting us to be blown away
Personally, I've found that critics who absolutely HATE _BioShock: Infinite_ are also the ones who give *David Cage* games 10/10.
And the fanboys are just angry it's not the exact same game as the original _BioShock_ (which had worse gameplay).
Because David Cage games focus on story and eliminate gameplay.
Infinite has hole filled story and mediocre gameplay
Alvious focus on story? those games are so full of plot holes and cliches they make transformers look deep
I dont like Bioshock 1, Infinite or David Cage. Dont generalize. Some people just dont think its a good game
Well, he does praise the second half of the story as emotional, so he must have realize by now that the character development doesn't start until later in the game.
Gotta love when he nonchalantly drops spoilers
you gotta play it on hard or harder for it to shine, I experienced
For it to shine, Or for you to cry?
Blue★ Well, if you cry enough on your screen it will eventually shine :P
Thinking of purchasing this soon, should I play it on hard for the 1st play through?
Like Rise of the TR or UC4, both challenging games on hard but too easy on normal.
Any feedback from players who have completed this will be appreciated!
Jammyfish the prologue is the hardest part. since 1 mistake has you doing the enire thing. Btw the prologue is the demo with an extra 5 min in the beginning
Jammyfish Definitely play it on Normal for the Tutorial to get a hang of the gameplay since the tutorial doesnt have any save points. After you feel comfortable with the way this game handles, turn it to hard, you can do it any time you want in this game :)
Yahtzee: "now you have a gun". Bro, you said you played OG Nier but you don't know that the flying book over Nier's shoulder shoot projectiles, effectively making it a "gun". This game doesn't deviate far from that core mechanic (which is good)
FavianTube WELL SHIT NOW I'M PLAYIN NIER
Wow, he doesn't remember the book from a game he reviewed 7 YEARS AGO.
FUKING KILL THAT PIECE OF SHIT.
Mirmisian then why cant a book have a gun built into yoou waffle
(sad Grimoire Weiss noises)
gulden that book is literally central to the story and in every every major scene. It would be like forgetting Barret was a character in FF7. Delete your stupid ass comment
0:43 is actually a sequel to Drakengard 1, not 2
I watched over 90 of this videos over the last two days.... i need more!
'Want a chewit' had me laughing hysterically on the train. Brilliant.
The 'stale' and 'easy' combat is easily fixed by just playing on hard or very hard
healing chips become useless, enemies actually hurt when they hit and you have to start paying attention to things like combos, gap closers, stagger on weapons, reach, etc
I always thought his name was 9S as a play on NES, since his hacking abilities involve a dual stick shooter arcade game with chiptunes music.
Japan doesn't have NES they have Famicom.
I know you made this comment 2 years ago, but it's never too late to be a pedantic ass.
That last joke is simultaneously one of the funniest things I've ever hear you say, and the only thing that has ever made me worry for your job! Good reviews.
I gotta love the intro song of this guy's videos, I headbang every time
My favorite part was buying the achievements I didn’t want to grind out.
I just finished this game last night. After struggling with numerous reviews of N:A I just want to say THANK YOU! There was a strange disconnect with me and this game. Parts of it I loved but a lot of it clearly didn’t impact me as it did (most?) other players. Feels good to find some similar thoughts.
That quite literal bombshell at the end though...
I've started reading "Will save Galaxy for food" and it's great, I love your stuff Yatzhee!
"breaking the gameplay like the heart of a little dog when it discovers you're not holding a treat" 😂😂 He makes even animal cruelty sound hilarious.
Yhatzee didn't do ending E
This is the only game, only piece of media really where you get to prove the thesis of the writer wrong within it. He's other points about game play I don't understand because perspective and mode changes often enough, and when you're 9S you can hack enemies, take over them and use them to attack other enemies, and each one has a different move set. Game world I can understand, coming off of Doom or some other big budget game then the visuals are luck luster, but they are stylish. Ironically the Director stated that he liked making games that are weird and likeable for reasons you can't really put your finger on.
Some aspects of it fell flat but if you're down here at the bottom of the comments looking for a second opinion then you're probably the kind of person who'd enjoy it.
How are you proving the thesis of the writer wrong? I'm genuinely curious, I might have missed something.
Taro has inherently negative things to say about humanity. The sacrifice at the end of path E is an opportunity to prove these things wrong. I don't really want to say more than that though, Path E should be experienced with no further information.
I also think that copying your data makes the act of helping someone meaningless, but that's just me.
"There is no victory without sacrifice"
Well those bots bucked the system too, so why can't I?
Any victory without sacrifice is meaningless.
Why is any victory without sacrifice meaningless? When does the game ever imply that?
i was expecting the pencil joke, and i am not disappointed at all.
yahtzee jokes but yoko taro did say he wants to make a shooter but sqaure won't let him. which is why his games have so many shooter elements in them.
This was funny, and I get the intent is to get a laugh so it's all good. But I hope no one uses this review as a basis for a purchase decision for this game, because it really couldn't have been more incorrect. In any aspect.
Skill Up You are a wise man
I disagree, he was right on the world being shit and combat being shit. I like the game, but travelling and destroying robots was incredibly boring.
Ohhh man. You must be new around here. Yahtzee is very careful with his praise, I would say maybe 1 in 10 review actually have anything positive to say about the game. As a long time Yahtzee viewer the message I got was "Buy it, you won't be disappointed".
You're allowed to like something despite its flaws. Just because YOU really like the game doesn't mean it has its flaws. The combat is pretty bland after a while and the open-world, while beautiful, is rather empty for what it is. Not to mention how the so-called "philosophical story'' completely misrepresents multiple classic philosophical concepts.
The open world being boring is sort of the point though. Like No More Heroes, it reflects how the central conflict itself is actually rather empty once you boil it down. That's why the game gives you the ability to warp between save points
2B - To Be
9S - Nein Ist - Is Not
A2 - Et Tu
2E - Banjo-Tooie?
Shouldn't it be "Ist nicht"? I don't think "Nein ist" is the correct grammar.
Well... it has to fit with the naming scheme and it is a Japanese game, don't think German grammar was the most important part to consider.
Geoff G Et tu would mean “And you” in Latin. “To be is not and you”?
Yeah, that's not how german works.
Personally, I died at "Nine hundred million gunshot wounds." XD
And here I thought 9S was the future iPhone model.
Give it time...
"near far wherever you are" i came.
I accept and embrace weirdness every time in my games. Many companies are playing safety now days, and I'm glad to see good old Yoko Taro back in town with his extravagant thought absurdly strange games. I have a soft stop for that.
I had fun walking into that robot orgy in the beginning. I couldn't stop laughing
You know a game is good if Yahtzee ALMOST recommends it.
So basically:
It's not like I like this game.
"Baka"
So basically, "I like this game, and I'll twist anyone else's words to them saying they like it too."
Tsundere Escapist-Chan
"Loading my mouth with Pokey" XD XD XD
"I want it on record that every fucking time I Googled 'Nier Automata Cover' I'd get links to Japanese love pillows with 2B on them"
that last joke was the Bomb :)
Everyone always talk about how this game made them rethink life whereas i just thought the whole thing was fun
well it can do both at the same time
I was waiting for the to be or not to be joke, I made that joke the instant I found out what her name was.
It's at the end of 9S's story - the ending is called "Or not 2[B]"
I'm a construction draftsman, so for me it was the pencils.
Considering it's [spoiler]
.
.
.
just a codename, and what her actual designation and role is[/spoiler]
.
.
.
, the pun makes sense in-world.
Oh boy I've been waiting for this
I coughed up my coffee when he said "Nier far, wherever you are"
huh? did you enjoy it or did you not enjoy it? lol
have you feel "THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD" yet?
You know a story is good when Yahtzee kind of likes it.
Brilliant as always
Thank you for being one of the few youtube reviewers to pronounce "Automata" correctly.
Per the wiki: 9S's name is a Latin pun: "non esse" is "not to be," the opposite of 2B's "to be." It could also be read as the German "nein es" ("no id") referring to Freud's theory of id, ego and superego, though this is not proper German grammar.
But 2B's full name is YoRHa No.2 Type B.
*cough*

Missing the link to Drakengard just means you didn't actually finish drakengard.
Aye. Pretty sure - whichever ending it was that sees Angelus shot down over tokyo.
The plots and settings hold only a very minute connection. It's the tonal and thematic aspects that connect the series together.
