>Music is synced to the battle
Holy fuck.
Never played Nier but this looks dope as fuck.
>>341622619
>first 30 seconds
It looks generic as fuck
>first minute in
Eh, its better but STILL not DMC worthy
>Two minutes in
>mfw
Sweetn, looks like something out of Ys but prettier.
>>341623904
>Never played Nier
Dont do it.
This one looks great but the first one is literally boredom the simulator
>>341624361
R-really? I've heard most of /v/ saying good things about it. Would I need to play the first to understand this one?
I hope I can figure out how to fucking fish in Nier before this comes out
>>341622619
Why is 2017 so fucking far away, goddamnit!
>>341624448
>Would I need to play the first to understand this one?
Probably, but ye the first one is..."average".
I'd suggest watching it on YT or something
>>341624361
I'll never get this opinion.
NieR isnt really that boring, the bosses are great, the puzzles and dungeons are great, The only "boring" thing is that the combat against random enemies and shades is just generic. It's not bad, but its not good either.
Do people not equip sealed Verses or something? The dark lances and the defensive powers made the game fun as shit to me.
>>341624448
Decide for yourself, I still think its an absolutely stellar title thats worth playing.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR9P2WEhmb8
The game runs on PC btw, on their "development build".
>>341624767
Technically every game runs on PC
It looks cool but would it hurt to throw a health bar in there? The whole video I was just wondering if it was taking any damage at all.
>>341624448
Play it, the gameplay is nothing special but it's okay I guess. The music, story, and characters are rather good though. I highly recommend getting all 4 endings, since it actually matters here. NG+ starts you most of the way into the game also, about 60% I think, so you don't even play the whole game over.
>>341624856
Given how every bit of gameplay they've shown so far is missing the ui, I suspect that they're not done with it yet. Given how the previous Nier used a health bar for the bosses, I'd say chances are high it'll be here as well.
>>341622619
Budget dark souls bosses are ok I guess.
Looks like every generic MMORPG boss. But /v/ shits on that genre because it's "casual". Guess it's not casual as long as it's single player or something.
>>341624463
Go to the beach, you cant fish at the pier where youre taught to fish for some retarded reason that got like 50% of players stuck.
>Platinum autists already being obnoxious fucks
Fuck you Taro. Couldn't you get someone good?
>>341624361
Nice Story, GOTY OST, okay gameplay.
i found it rather enjoyable.
but, to each their own.
>>341625080
Name one MMO Boss thats remotely this intricate.
All MMO bosses are just bullet sponges the move aroubnd and fire in multilinear directions, none utilize a Z axis like this and create fucking bullet hell camera angles.
>>341625080
>MMORPG
Could you try pretending not to be retarded at least?
>>341623793
Isn't platinum's A team working on the game, What'd you expect, they do that for tons of games.
>>341625228
examples?
>>341625080
>Looks like every generic MMORPG boss
I didn't know mmorpg bosses had bullet hell segments
>>341624856
Probably turned off the HUD for presenation.
>>341625457
>that
>bullet hell
>>341625228
>fuck you taro for letting the fans blind my judgement off the game by picking this dev!
go bitch and be a moron somewhere else
>>341622571
>>341622619
Great design, nice camera. The "bullet hell balls" looks a little cheap and nonsensical, but it's probably fun to play.
The damage seemed a bit weird, though. The boss wasn't reacting, there wasn't a satisfying hit spark or sound, no visible damage or destroyed body parts, no lifebar, it just sounded like metal scraping against metal. At first I thought that the player was dealing zero damage to the boss, but they just kept hitting so I guess it must be taking damage.
>>341625383
A team is working on Scalebound. B team who worked on Revengance is working on this game.
>>341625228
>Being an actual hipster

Guess I'm buying a ps4 afterall.
>>341625205
I did where those kids where. I couldn't get to the part where the fish votes and starts moving. I pressed x or the left analog stick and it just stopped and told me to go fuck myself and try again.
>>341625630
The lack of life bars are probably a "cinematic" thing.
>>341625046
(You)
>>341625606
>never played nier
here's your (you)
I wish I could be hype for this game but I just think the MC looks super boring.
Is it just me?
>>341625348
Need name
>>341624723
>that fightwhy did you have to remind me
>>341625815
Are you currently implying nier is a bullet hell? Like do you have any mental disablities?
>>341625630
The bullet hell balls were in the previous game and they look goofy like that there as well so it's easy to tell how far away they are from you even if a ton of them are in the same dense area.
>>341624361
Opinions
NieR doesn't have the best combat, but it's not terrible and is actually fun for some people. If you aren't trying to do literally every sidequest in your first run, the game isn't boring. Yes there are slower parts of the game, but all games have those. That said, some people just don't like those kinds of games. Doesn't mean its boring just because you in particular don't like it.
>>341622619
>this music
>Platinum gameplay
Yep.
>>341625348
Naaaamee
>>341625998
Nier did indeed have bullet hell parta. In fact the final boss is entirely dodging bullets.
>>341625817
no, but nitendo thread is over there
>>341622619
I want that
>>341625348
sauce
>>341626158
That's not what bullet hell means you fucking retard. Is CoD a bullet hell because everyone shots bullets at you?

Its possible this could be a real honest to god 10/10 game.
Such creative game design. I'm sold.
Guess I'll buy a PS4 in about a year or so.

They like to remove the UI for these pre-recorded videos
Music synchronization in boss battles + platinum combat + yoko taro
When do I wake up from this beautiful dream?
>people don't know about Nier bullet hell
I'm also surprised how many people didn't expect that quality of music after the last game had such a fucking outstanding OST.
>>341626002
>and they look goofy like that there as well so it's easy to tell how far away they are from you even if a ton of them are in the same dense area.
I meant more how they enter the fight. They seem to just clip out of the boss's model, she doesn't seem equipped with a cannon/launcher or anything.
>>341626310
Picture related is bullet hell.
Nier did infact have bosses that fired out bullets like this. But you wouldn't know that because you didn't play the game.
>>341626469
not a reason to play games but if it's good it's a nice tag along
>>341622619
Holy shit that's the best thing I've seen from this game. Looks pretty damn good.
That guy seemed pretty good at the game though, when I play it'll probably just look like clunky confusing shit
>>341622619
The first bullet pattern looks reall nice, but I thought the first game was more interesting when you had to dodge it looking from the side. The 2nd pattern is kind of like that but it looks more for show than an attack that's really going to hit you.
>>341625637
So its going to be style over substance?
Im okay with that
>>341622619
Holy mother of soundtracks, my ears just came
>>341626640
Where is this screenshot from?
>>341626731
its only the first boss.
Imagine how well all the others will be implemented
>>341626469
If there's any amount of time at all in a game dedicated to telling a story then the quality of that story matters. If it's completely absent or told in an indirect way like Dark Souls that's fine but if I'm being interrupted from playing a game I enjoy so I can hear some fucker tell me a story than how good that story is matters as much as anything else in the game.
>>341622571
Looked kinda cool. Too bad that it is associated with Shitnix. I rather murder my only infant son in his sleep that give that company of rapists my money.
It doesn't look very good. No health bard (hopefully something that just isn't in yet), and not a single one of the PC's attacks look like they have any power behind them. There aren't any satisfying sounds or visual effects on the boss when hit; in fact, it looks to me like the PC's attacks aren't actually effective. What we see and hear makes me think more of a "you're hitting the wrong spot/with the wrong thing, do something else".
>>341626796

>>341626796
Are you seriously that retarded?
>game comes out
>everyone praises Platinum for the bullet hell bosses
>"omg i love platinum! they're so true to arcade-like gameplay!"
>no one will recognize that the first game did it first
Watch this happen. Platinumfags will do this.
>>341622571
This was the only truly good thing to come out of E3.

>>341626796

>>341626890
>>341626902

I think he's referring to the fact that it's 3200x1800
>>341626310

>>341626890
>>341626902
>>341626942
>>341626956
I was wondering why it's so upscaled like that you fucking idiots.
IT wasn't like that on PS3 iirc.
>>341626469
The fucking main reason DoD/Nier has such a loyal fanbase is because we're in it for the story. All the other games in the series have subpar gameplay.
That being said, it's Taro. The story will be complex, there will be 4-5 endings and they will all make you want to kill yourself.
>>341624767
Fuck, game better run 60fps
>>341622619
Nice
>>341626885
>What we see and hear makes me think more of a "you're hitting the wrong spot/with the wrong thing, do something else".
That is probably what is happening. Most of the attacks are on a metal skirt that are probably doing little to no actual damage.
>>341626923
It's fine, Yoko Taro wearing that Emil head is memorable enough that a lot of stuff should at least get credited to him by the people who haven't played any of his other games.
Platinum is letting Yoko Taro make what might be his first ACTUAL masterpiece by fixing the one issue all this previous games have had, we should be happy that it looks like rising and not like TMNT at least.
>>341627179
I get what you're saying but it didn't seem any more effective when she jumped up and started clawing away at her face. If it wasn't for the first pattern repeating I would've guessed the whole fight was like a final spellcard where you just have to wait it out until the boss gives up.
>>341627197
This.
Drakengard has a god tier- EVA inspired story but it's 1/10 gameplay and repetitiveness swear you off of it so hard.
Having a Taro game with decent to fantastic gameplay is heavenly
Fuck Nier's protag why does she get to be an easily qt passable tranny while I remain uggo she doesn't even NEED drugs ;_;7
>>341625817
I don't know about your but I'm digging this MC.
Kind of unrelated question
Anyone seen that game called anima gate of memories?
It like
Took so much 'inspiration' from nier and made an indie game out of it. Know if the creators actually addressed that they like nier or something?
>>341627434
>EVA inspired
You fuck off. Not every story about evil angels is EVA.
>>341624607
My favorite was AoE clone one, phantasm I think. It had such a good impact when it hit.
>>341627496
>Kaine
>Protag
>>341627423
If you saw other videos of the game you'd have seen most enemies can be broken to pieces to expose weak points. Chances are the boss is the same.
>>341626885
>No health bard
THE UI IS HIDDEN IN GAME PREVIEWS FOR GOD'S SAKE
>>341627223
You are trying to hard.
>>341627541
Looks like shit but got me interested enough. I read somewhere that it has a good story. How does it play?
>>341622571
Dual audio yes or no?
>>341627223
(you)
>>341627610
Taro outright said his inspirations came off Evangelion.
do your research.
>>341622619
FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKKKKK
>Game isn't even out yet
>platinumfags vs originalnierfags are already fighting
Fuck this, you guys ruin everything.
>>341627434
I kind of get that sometimes you can't make a game with good combat. But why would anyone greenlight a second Drakengard when it was like 30 hours of bad musou gameplay on the same 5-6 maps. If you can't do anything to make a game good just write a book.
>>341624448
>understand
>Nier
>play
That's a good one. To understand Nier you need to play every game in that universe like Drakengarde and Lost Planet and read the comics and have multiple advanced degrees in disciplines of physics and philosophy and be blessed with the seventh sight by an entire tribunal host of outer gods.
>>341624448
The DoD games have connecting themes but they are generally playable without playing the previous titles.
>more stupid anime weeaboo shit
woah what is this? Waifu May Cry?
>>341627779
Probablydlc
>>341627779
If we take Drakengard 3 to account, maybe as a DLC.
Is this going to be another 4 hour long shitfest by platinum? I can't even remember the last good game They made was. Have they ever made a game longer than 4 hours either?
>>341626641
its magic, you dumb homo
>>341622619
The music is great but I can't help but feel it doesn't match what's going on at all.
The boss just slowly moves around and the room itself is completely static and nothing is going on
>>341628228
they said it will be a full length rpg, so no
>>341625046
Dark Souls bosses are already budget Dark Souls bosses.
>>341627774
It kinda plays better than the original nier in a way
The combat is an improvement but leaves to be desired, you have some cool magic and simple melee attacks for two characters. It has platforming and then some of the bullet orbs that seem straight out of nier, it also has the side view gameplay. Its a nice filler game to play for 20 bucks, I like it but it just urks me a little seeing how alike it is of nier. Even the health bar has the same integrity and shivs
The music is good, graphics are really pretty. There HAS to be some interview somewhere of the developers saying they liked Nier.
>>341628346
God I hope so.
>>341628326
the player character moves around to compensate for that, if both were super fast half the song wouldn't fit with the slow singing.
looks like shit
>>341628568
>as he says on a website originally for weebs
>>341628390
What about the story?
>>341628082
Wasn't that Bayonetta?
>>341622619
>>341622571
>>341622619
Will I have to play the first game to understand this one?
>>341629052
YES YOU NEED TO PLAY THE DRAKENGARD MOBILE GAME TOO.
>>341628740
It seems pretty interesting so far, probably wondering I'll end up liking alot. It seems a bit dark, but not too much like nier. The devs are western after all
The main character doesnt have a name is called "The Bearer" seems familiar huh? Oh and she happens to have a talking floating book who calls her "baby" with meh acting
I only played 3 hours so far, But heard it's like 30 hours long, so I hope is because that was my selling point
>>341629052
It will help you to understand a lot of the things about the world and why you fight robot dudes
And it's overall not a bad game, the combat is simple but it works, it has a nice story characters and OST though and some good bossfights
>>341629052
No. You won't understand it regardless of whether or not you played all of Cavia's other games.
>>341629052
apparently not, but knowing Yoko Taro ending B and onwards will connect to the previous game in some mindfuck way and will make you feel depressed for the things you do throughout the game.
So are we getting an OST where each track is its own made up language again?

No, it's going to be style and substance. It's going to be a great fucking game.
Kamiya doesn't allow shitty games. Platinum Games is number 1 right now.
Warning for everyone who wants to get into the Nier and Drakengard universe:
They're suffer simulators.
If you're thin skinned and cry easily or can't stand characters being tormented don't fucking play these games.

This. NieR 1's OST is probably one of the best to ever grace video games. Not every song is a hit but the vocal work and instruments are so well done when it does hit. The chick they got to do the vocal work eas just stellar.
I have no idea what she's saying but when I first heard Kaine / Salvation I almost cried.
Is anyone else worried about this just being a Platinum title instead of a Nier one? Haven't seen anything on comfy towns, side quests with sub-stories to find out about the world, etc.

Ok
>>341630364
PG is one of the few companies that has any resemblance of a precedent for quality control.
Name one other company or figure head that has created a dev team as competent as Kamiya.
>inb4 kojima
lmfao hes a hack
>>341630476
Well i doubt they want to spoil the whole game, we saw a small area with NPCs and shit and they confirmed that RPG elements and quest are back
>>341630237
>that instrument at the beginning
>the chanting starts
Oh fuck that gets me every time, really felt like a final dungeon.
What is the instrument called? Is it an organ?
>>341630502
and with an actually compelling story instead of "hurr look we broke the 4th wall epic xd"
>>341630476
They just livestreamed a demo an hour ago and it showed all the typical RPG stuff like sidequests, towns and NPCs
>>341622619
...Really?
>>341630364
>>341630502
Literally kill your selves.

>Kamiya doesn't allow shitty games
lmao he just does whatever will fatten his wallet, he sold out to microsoft with scalebound and look how fucking bad it is
>>341630273
thankfully that hack didn't get his grubby hands on nier
>>341630476
did (You) even watch the fucking stream or do (You) just spout bullshit all the time, without knowing what (You) talk about?
>>341630592
It's an organ.
>>341630596
What was the stream called? Is there a recording?
This game has the best movement mechanics in the history of the stylish action genre and mankind.
>>341630617
No, the video is fake, it will actually be a first person VR game.
>>341622619
I can't stop watching and listening to this fucking song.
Fan fucking tastic
>>341630540
Did I even mention that hack's name? No? Also, why are contributing Kamiya to everything PG does? He isn't the only competent director there.
>>341630476
>It'll have Nier music
>It'll have Nier story
>It'll have Nier characters/writing
>It'll have Platinum gameplay but still with its Nier twists
Whether or not there are comfy towns could be a good or bad thing depending on the story. I'm not going to beg for Nier tropes when they could do something a bit more unique.
>Never played Drakengard
>Never played Nier
Just how lost will I be going into this?
>>341630476
Literally all of those things have been confirmed already m8. He even mentioned fishing in an earlier interview.
https://youtu.be/pj4Scabq5tU?t=1h22m48s
so its been awhile since I played nier
Shadowlord was a human?
Shadows were humans? (something about their souls not properly carrying into vessels?)
Yonah was Shadowlord's daughter not yours?
if anyone can clear it up
>>341630778
Square Enix's stream, might be up somewhere already
>>341630592
Yeah, that's a church organ.
>>341630592
I think it's some kind of synth organ. Doesn't sound like a real instrument.

Kamiya is MAKING a shitty game, have you seen the recent Scalebound footage?
People don't understand how Plat works internally. The teams aren't arranged in ABC tiers, they're made on-the-fly at project start.
Takahisa Taura (the director of this game) was a huge fan of the original Nier and had written up a design pitch for a game based on Nier's gameplay for Platinum. Square Enix came by Plat's offices and asked if they wanted to do a project together, and Taura had this pitch ready, and Square liked the idea.
This isn't "mercenary" licensed work. Making an ACTUAL Nier game was fan-wank for Taura, he wanted to do a Nier-inspired game and jumped at the chance to make an actual sequel. It's also his first lead role and he's the youngest project lead ever at Platinum, he's trying to prove himself and move up in the company.
While making his literal dream game.
The game doesn't look good because "Plat made it", if that was true TMNT wouldn't have been shit. It looks good because it's being made by someone with a real passion for the Nier universe who also happens to have a lot of experience and good ideas cooking when it comes to tightening up its combat, and has everything to prove about getting it perfect.
Also
>the boss fight looks clunky and unresponsive
If the live interview was any indication of what really happened, Taro rang them up and said "oh, that boss we're showing at E3? Make the whole fight BGM-synced!" at the last minute. I imagine it can't piggyback on the standard hit-stop system because that would desync the boss's attacks from the BGM, that system will need some refinement and I get the feeling it just wasn't ready yet. Remember they already crashed their demo build once at E3, they pretty clearly just packed up a nightly commit build and stuck it on a hard drive for E3.

I'm literally cumming
>>341630890
Only if you care about the lore, otherwise you should be fine.
>>341630890
The director said people who are familiar with the story will be much more confused so you can just start with Automata.
>>341630969
>being this butt hurt because Kamiya is better than Kojima
>>341630890
Story is independent from the other games so don't worry if this one's your first
>>341630743
I mean finger-pointing on an anonymous image board for the sake of creating more conflict.
>kill yourself
You're fitting in so nicely. Welcome to /v/, /v/rother.

They did an hour long session at the start of the stream.
>>341630870
>mad that Kamiya is better than your favorite director
>mad that your favorite developers are shit
Have fun being a shitter.
>>341630969
I actually think the boss fight is unresponsive to your attacks because you're attacking it in the wrong place. You're supposed to hit the dolls on its upper body.
>>341631073
And you're fitting quite well yourself, shitter.
stop fucking responding to obvious bait jesus christ this place is worse than yahoo news comments sections

Also why are you green texting a different person while responding to me?
You fucking cuck.
Will every Nier thread be like that now that it is made by Platinum?
Almost all Platinum games are great, are you only allowed to like one thing?
>>341622619
bosses should match the speed of the character. Not too impressed
>FOUR WEAPONS AT ONCE
>WEAPON SWITCHING
>RANGE BOT
>A BUNCH OF COOL SHIT
>ENEMIES WITH DEPTH
THE FUCKING MUSIC
We are officially DMC tier.
>>341631273
first bosses never match the speed of the player
>>341625637
but revengance and nier:a look a billion times better than scalebound m8
>>341631267
>Almost all Platinum games are great
Anon you can't tell them something so truthful, they'll only get mad.
They'll say
>b-b-b-but TMNT
>-b-but scalebound looks like shit
they are mad fgts who want politics and wars because they are empty and have no vidya.
I play platinum games so I have tons of vidya.
Begged my mom for a steam gift card for my birthday. Pretty sure she's getting me two $30 cards and my grandma is an unknown quantity at this $tage (hehehe)
So, when can I start pre-loading Nier 2?
>>341626731
Its an early boss but I agree, I hope it picks up.
That being said this is a game Cavia/Platinum game, which means that there WILL be multple playthroughs and difficulties so I expect that it will pick up.
GET FUCKING H Y P E
>>341631267
no, the ones who are shitposting are just providing the bump our imagedumpers provided back then
>>341631418
Kill yourself and buy STALKER shitter.
>>341631349
Then why do people love Bayo when the first boss is slower than that and a QTE fest?
Is it odd to have an erection from gameplay footage?

Watch the E3 interview stream.
They show a town full of NPCs and shops ("the resistance", a pocket of humans who remained on Earth), confirmed officially that side-quests are in, item buying/selling and equipping is in, and weapon upgrading is in.
They also showed a side-scrolling segment in the town (with 360 Contra-style aiming), as well as some exploration of the ruins outside the town (with ledge climbing and a lot of vertical paths) and talked a little bit about tucked-away secret areas and how "anything that looks like you ought to be able to scale it, you can probably scale it".
Not a single encounter shown so far, even the ones not debug-mode-triggered, has ended with a "SCORE - GOLD / DAMAGE - PLATINUM / TIME - PURE PLATINUM" end results screen.
It's NOT just another tech-heavy hallway brawler from Plat.

Thank you, Jesus. As much as I enjoyed Nier's combat, I loved the fuck out of everything else more. Thanks for making my dayeven though I was going to spend $60 on this anyways just for the music. Probably more if it has a pre-order incentive with a CD.
>>341629587
I hope this is a joke because i can name 3 shitty platinum games right now.
>you can just destroy the orbs
thats lame
>>341631418
kill yourself now
>>341624448
Same world different story
>>341631671
Not the other types of orbs.
>>341631671
Watch again moron
>There are people in this thread who are hearing CAVE music for the first time
Kinda jealous.

>Platinum Games is number 1 right now.
No, that would be Guerrilla Games.
Is Nier 1 on PS4? I need to play it now.
MY FUCKING DICK FUCK FUCK FUCK
>>341622619
>that everything past 2:00
>song syncs with the fight
I'm ready.
>>341631782
You mean cavia bro, this is CAVE

>>341631864
No, but if you have a PS3 it's really cheap by now
>>341631671
>video is specifically made to show that there are 2 kinds of bullets
>retards still miss it
>>341631864
No faggot, just hook up your damn PS3 or 360, its dirt cheap again.
I didn't care much for nier. I think that part of it was how built up it was by v, but the combat is shite and the bossfights weren't all that great (with some notable exceptions). The story was just confusing and the characters were one dimensional, even if they were entertaining.
I still enjoyed it though, music was fucking 10/10 and it actually got me emotional at a couple of points. The package as a whole didn't sit right though.
>>341631913
My bad. I tend to forget the i.
>>341631864
It is on the Japanese store. You'll have to play with the inferior Nier though.
>>341631778
???
You clearly can destroy the lighter orbs.
>>341631754
Shouldn't be able to destroy none of them
What stops me from standing back and just shooting all of them out? I don't see an incentive in going in dodging the attacks.
Hope theres an ammo system at least
