The game looks like it's shaping up well but this presentation sucked hard. They really need a proper demo, an empty debug demo means lots of awkward silence and forced small talk and most importantly makes the game look like shit.

Many people like Rising, myself included.
>>
>>341502925
The director of the first game is directing this one, so it'll definitely have the tone and story people want from Drakengard/Nier.
I do agree that Platinum is overrated and they can only make one type of game, but with Yoko working on it I think this will shape up to be pretty good. He also refers to it as an action RPG when they are playing through it, so it won't be a straight up action game.

Also calling Taro "overrated" is so ridiculous. The man is pretty much unknown beyond certain circles of fans.

I have a feeling that its not gonna be an exclusive, devs said that its a game for ps4, but there were nothing about exclusivity. It can came to PC after some time.
>>
>>341505351
Not him, but from what we've seen, she's kinda boring.

I mean, Caim was fucking insane, Zero was fucking Insane, Both Onier-chan and Papanier are more on the sensible side, but they're both interesting in their own ways, especially in how they interact with other characters.

IMO, one of yoko's greatest strengths is characters, and we're not seeing much of it right now.

>>341505982
Yeah. pretty much

Stupid complaint, I know. but I want like, one line of dialogue at least.

I mean, it's not like all other Yoko Taro games has had this super silent, action only montages serving as trailers. They have context.

I dunno, hopefully we see an actual trailer with that tomorrow on the SE event.

Sony is probably the last bastion of weebshit protected pretty firmly by FUCKING WHITE MALES, who have probably loved anime titties as early as Macross. Nintendo has weebshit too obviously, but thanks to stuff like Pokemon/Zelda, women (and therefore undesirable sjw types) have been a larger part of the community for longer. I mean weebshit in the most loving way possible here, of course.

I'll be an idort until the day I die (although I am probably gonna pass on the XBone this gen, barring something crazy), so I hope this doesn't sound biased/console warry. To me it is just an observation after being an industry lurker for nearly 20 years.

Because Sony actually gives two fucks about their audience that buy their stuff whereas Nintendo just keep pandering the SJW landwhales audience that didn't buy shit from Nintendo other than a couple of games and amiibos.

MS are trying to restore their fanbase faith at least too, but the wound Don Mattrick gave them is still too deep.

Call me Sonnygger but I'm actually happy Nintendo is bombing so hard consolewise , maybe , just maybe, they change for good and start making more than 5 good games per gen since the GC

Maybe people just like his fucked up ideas and because these people are in high places he gets allowed a small project with a tiny as fuck marketing budget. Then Platinum comes along and is all "We liked this thing, we can do it" and Platinum are known for getting good shit done on the cheap.

He's the luckiest, most magnificent bastard around.

You mean, working in the American industry, him being a Jap doesn't have too much to do with anything other than his internal perspectives.

Other than Konami being massive retards, Japan's vidya production industry is a bit more open and kind to "weirdness" like Taro. Western Publishers take it too safe.

He's LITERALLY lucky, at least that he made a game that Takahisa Taura liked.

Squeenix just went to Plat and said "we're interested in doing something with you guys" and Taura had written up a proposal for a Platinum games title based loosely on Nier, so he said "...I have a Nier idea" and they basically cut the check.

It wound up being a dream team (Taro's gameplay is always meh, Plat's narratives are always meh) but it only happened because Taura HAPPENED to have been writing up a design doc for a Nier-alike to pitch as a new IP for Plat when Squeenix happened to walk through the door and ask if they were interested in a collaboration.

The thing I'm, weirdly, most interested in is that Platinum is (in)famous for making games meant to be played through multiple times, at ever-increasing difficulties and with an ever-expanding arsenal of abilities, to slowly master the combat systems.

Meanwhile Nier is (in)famous for requiring so many playthroughs to really experience the whole story.

It'll be interesting to start the game over again to try to "pure plat run" it or whatever like you would when playing Bayo, only the story starts to veer in a different direction as you progress.
>>
>>341522350
Too bad only a few people understand how much of a dream team this is.

I still remember being somewhat dumbfounded when I saw the first E3 trailer for this.

I mean, Taro has commented that he was very happy and surprised that the Plat team working on the game were such huge fans of the original Nier and were committed to trying to capture its feel even beyond what Taro requested.

Now that they've confirmed towns and NPCs (pockets of human resistance left on Earth) and shown an actual open environment with multiple paths through it, and knowing Taro is writing it, I feel confident that it won't just be another Platinum hallway-fight string with encounter ranks.

Still waiting to see a Witch-Time-alike.

We've seen it in Bayo (and 2), Transformers, and W101 and it's always been super-satisfying to use.

I expect it won't be there and I'll accept it and 9 hours in I'll find some equippable item that makes it happen like in W101 and the combat will be brand fuckin new again.

Play Nier, that's about it.
Technically Nier takes place in a world of a certain ending of Drakengard, but it's never refereneed or anything

All you have to do is play nier

They worked great in W101 because the rules that governed their behavior were extremely clear and player-manipulable, though.

The only interesting sign here is that in the beginning, as he demos the combos, 9S starts firing shots from his pod at the wall in the direction of the melee attacks. It does pique my curiosity; are his attack patterns governed by your actions? Or does he "think for himself" and attack enemies whenever they're around?
>>
>>341525929
I believe one of the short stories also stated that one of the clones that Emil created of himself went missing, implied to be nabbed by the aliens. So they probably based their robot designs off of him, you can really see it in the concept art with the robots face torn away.
>>
>>341526021
In the unreleased Ending E of Nier, kaine fucks everything that resembles Nier, Nier is rebirthed from a tree, and Emil decks himself out with a robot army and flies off into space to fight the evil alien invaders.
>>
>>341525505
>>341525560

Why does every game have to feature a Tag-along nowadays anyway?

Is it that important that the people who've never played a game before has someone to point and say "look over there, here is where you should be looking and here is what to do"

I mean, I have 100% faith in Taro and more party members just means more delicious delicious party dialogue, I just hope we have enough time to enjoy the environments and encounters before we're tied to a Navi.

Some time after NieR Emil flew into space and kicked alien ass.
He killed so many aliens that they started worshiping his as a god of death.
It makes sense the they would design their war machines after him.
