Have you accepted the lord and savior of video games, /v/?
why does her wear the mask?
>>335641668
Do you want a genuine reason or bane memes?
Cuz I can totally do either.
>>335641869
both if you can
>>335642371
Alright.
He wears it because he believes game designers shouldn't be like entertainers, and shouldn't comment on their work, because most of the subjects they talk about are too boring for most readers or listeners.
Also so it isn't extremely painful.
>>335641395
Yes I have.
I'm still worried that Platinum fucks up the gameplay in the upcoming game, because I don't think they are good developers at all.
>>335642652
IIRC he just wants people to focus on his work and not on him as a person
The mask itself is like entertainment so its contradictory to say "they shouldnt be like entertainers"
where is the fucking gif of him clapping
>>335642820
If you think about it concretely, the entertainer is the character (Emil), not him.
But yeah the first one is also true.
>>335642818
Pretty much every Taro game has been a standard hack N slash with some extra stuff
And Platinum is pretty damn good at that.
If it were something like a proper Drakengard game thats supposed to have aerial combat yea I'd be concerned, but Nier? Nah, its a perfect fit.
>>335642898
>>335642910
But he's not acting like Emil, he's just acting like a man wearing a goofy mask
>>335643013
True. But he's definitely not acting like Yoko Taro either.
>>335642652
That and he has anxiety apparently
>>335642818
It depends how much Plat is involved with the gameplay. If it's just the combat then it's fine.
It's not a Taro game without long pointless sidequests and player punches.
Brace for horror.
Spoiled it for those faint of heart.
>>335642818
Drakengard 3 was literally a mediocre hack and slash game. Platinum's involvement can only be a good thing.

i feel like people who are worried about Platinum's involvement havent even played the games, or at least any besides Nier
Nier Automata is a fairly budget title by Platinum being published by Square Enix so the future of Nier is probably pretty secure. We might even get another Drakengard sequel somewhere down the line.
But is it too much to hope for a continuation of Drakengard at this point?
>>335646554
Might even get another Drakengard spinoff*
>>335642898
>>335642996
>>335646554
Nier is Drakengard 2 in everything but name, but yea I do miss the old cast, they were the most fun IMO
I'd take an HD remake but thats very unlikely, if anything we're going to get more YorHa stuff
>>335641395
You know, Emile wouldn't be so bloody unsettling if they just gave the poor kid a bandana or face scarf.
>a NieR sequel made by Platinum
I still can't believe that this is actually happening
>>335646881
emil becomes un-unsettling the instant he opens his mouth
11/10 would son
>>335647215
Taro has friends in high places, well that and Platinum literally offered to do it.
>>335644736
Is that Taro or Yoko?
>>335647414
greenbox is him
you can see is face in the GDC talk
>>335647493
Why isn't Taro ever with him?
>>335647560
because the Replicants won
