I'm still torn on how I feel about this becoming true.

On the one hand, I don't think it has the, uh, "meme power" of MGS which robs it of the ability to be easily transmutable by internet osmosis.

On the other, you are absolutely right in that MGS left a big ol' hole for "series of games that are 3DEEP5U with interesting characters directed by a dude who follows his own drum" to take the spotlight. I think the "jumps around in time/lines" nature of the series, however, is a little more inaccessible than MGS's way of doing that.

As long as the super heroes who keep translating the extra materials stick around it shouldn't be that bad--hopefully if it picks up in popularity we'll get more official translations.

Most of the stuff just elaborates on implications that are made in the game.

Tyrann and Emil were obviously alive back when shit was going down, extra material confirms they've met.

You learn a little more about gestalt Nier/Yonah/Kaine/Kali (Kaine's grandmother) and get some details about why the world fell into such a bad state.

Just fluff stuff that you don't need to enjoy the game, but stuff that you can eat up if you're the sort who wants to know more.

IMO the most reasonable theory was the ayys in the drama CD got gigadunked by Emil so hard they decided to model their new, deadlier tech after him.

I'm not certain he'll have a cameo, given that he's taken it upon himself to protect the region of the first game. If it's anything like prior games, he'll be a vague implication (like how our only connection Angelus/Drakengard was that guy mentioning a dragon falling from the sky).

I played Nier and liked it very much, and I've been looking at some gameplay of the Drakengard games.

I'm normally the kind of person who likes to play a series in sequential order, even if some of the games are bad, but I'm considering skipping the first two games because 1 looks awful and I don't want to play a direct sequel without having played the first.

From what I understand Drakengard 3 is a prequel and I'm wondering if it's acceptable to just jump in there. I understand I may miss out on some references and whatnot but I'm wondering how accessible it is to a newcomer.
>>
>>342014514
You can skip 2 but you absolutely have to play 1.
>>
>>342014514

Play 1+3, skip 2 unless you're interested in what "playing it way too safe with a sequel to a bizarre game" looks like. There's also some okay worldbuilding in it and the gameplay is better. Decent OST too.

Given that his replicant data was deleted, no matter what side won he'd be fucked. I'm also pretty sure Kaine knew enough to explain to Nier that he was doing some fucked up shit, but also probably didn't care enough about the fate of humanity to stop him.

>>342021891

Tyrann is too fucking chatty/hedonistic to be Caim. Their only common ground is needing very little excuse to murder.

He has some reddit shit jokes. But at least he doesn't fuck up in telling the story.

He tells the entire story in 2 parts and connects it to Nier.

Also you HAVE to play drakengard 3 for Nier: automata. It's really obvious that it's connected to it.

So I think I'm going to start Nier for the first time today. I'm definitely getting Automata on release after seeing that boss fight. I played about half of Drakengard before dropping it, hope that doesn't happen with Nier.

It's there but not THAT noticeable in-game unless you're always crotch checking her (especially in her DLC outfits, where the babydoll top doesn't obscure it most of the time). While you wouldn't be able to see it from that angle, a lot of fan artists omit it because they have never played.

The gameplay was atrocious. Like a watered down warriors (an already pretty bad series). I found the characters highly unlikable and not in the sense that "he's a big meanie! :( i dont like him" kind of retard reasoning. There's a good way of going about likable evil characters, but Caim is just shittly developed. The lore was fucking cool though and some gameplay concepts were original I guess.

>Kaine
>Dick

I can't believe I actually believe this stupid shit and spent hours searching through the games cut scenes and story looking for the part where they confirm she has dick.

It never happens! This isn't anything in the Nier game that suggest this. It's just some stupid shit that Yoko Taru decided to add in after the fucking game is out and thus this whole dick girl thing started.

The model you see in game in no way and was never intended to have a fucking penis. People then later on start making up lies saying it in the game when it's not.

So as far as I'm concerned during the story of Nier 1 Kaine has no penis. After all that shit was over she somehow grew a fucking penis over night.

Way to ruin a hot a piece of ass with your shitty fetishes Yoko Taru.

I don't like it any more than you do, but it was heavily implied in one of her in-game story things.

Nier automata isn't niche in appeal though.
It's the only upcoming cuhrazy game that has actually given us gameplay demos that lived up to expectations (Compare with Scalebound and FFXV). It has inherently appealing and mystifying aesthetics, it has great sound, it has great concept art, it has major backers, square enix and platinum always bring in attention to their products.
So why is it utterly overlooked? Makes no sense. It's a lot higher budget than Nier as well.

In Grimoire Nier it talks about how Nier was forced to sleep with a man for money so he could afford money for his sister. Which led to him starting to hate Yonah, cause, you know having to let some man fuck you just to survive is no fun for anyone. But then Popola and Devola saved the day by getting him jobs, which including killing shades, and while on said job he killed the pedo and realized he liked killing and actually loved his sister. So everyone got a happy ending.
