    Nier Automata is one of those games I think about a lot, years after I last beat it.

    I like the story. It might come off anime at times, yeah they sexualized a character, but that becomes irrelevant shortly. It's one of those game I ask you stay with to the end. Nothing I would say is gross except for one thing I will not mention because there's a chance you'll accidentally do it the first time, like i did.

    It's a game that presents a question and builds it's journey as you play along, it's not mindless, although it might seem that way at the first part.

    To really defend the weirdness, it's set up like it's meant to trap g*mers with eyecandy.

    And finally, play with the network capabilities on. It makes your world feel less lonely in a dark souls kinda way.

    I definitely enjoyed it. It is not as deep as it's made out to be, but it is a cool story told in a cool way, and pretty fun to play.

    I do not know that I would consider it a really good entertainment experience. Like, I'd try to lose myself in like a fun platformer or tetris effect to fry my brain if I'm getting my mind off shit before I'd grab Nier Automata. I think Nier grabs you good if there's nothing on your brain. I don't know if it will forcefully pull you in.

    Yeah it's one of the best games I have ever played. Go in blind and go I knowing you have to play it twice and trust me on both of those. It's short

    I enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it. The soundtrack is pretty fantastic and the storyline is pretty unique and tackles philosophical concepts in an interesting way. However (mild spoiler about a game mechanic),

    part of the story requires you to replay a large section with a few huge twists. I enjoyed it but one of my friends did not.

      That seems really unique to a person who played that game and enjoyed it.

      What does that mean to you ?

    I want to know too. I have it downloaded on steam but haven't played it yet.

    I hear they sexualise the robot girls so I think that might have put me off of it. But I don't know how true that is.
