I don't think they're in the business of covering up titties. At least they didn't de-lewd-ify anything in Nier, if there was anything to target.

Although I do recognize that "localization" needs to fucking die out. Markets are international now, you can't just put blinders on your consumers and only offer them the version that's been hacked apart to sell better in their region.

I liked their podcast as they would explain the Japanese gaming culture but man i recently listened to their recent episode with Kat Bailey.

And fucking hell are they some serious Japanophiles. Kat was claiming how Fifa is better now that they have the Japanese league as opposed to some shitty English league.

Also they would make a snarky remark towards old white ESPN guys and the guys that were running that CSGO scam where they replied that who cares there just rich white guys.

Not even a white guy myself but it just seemed gross.

Localization is superior to stilted awkward language that gets from direct translation.

"we'll do our best" "f-fast" "it can't be helped"

I don't know how to describe it. It's always when they're alluding to something without directly mentioning it, probably another polite japanese thing. The subtitles will always show the word "that" in quotation marks to account for this. Typical usage would be something like:

"Things are not proceeding to plan, if things get worse we might have to use "that"."

"You don't mean??"

"Yes I'm afraid so."

It takes many years to become fluent in a language which involves living in the native country to absorb how the language is naturally spoken.

Oh hey a Nier thread, now I don't have to make one.

I've been playing Replicant, and I never should have listened to the people that say, "it's the same game just with Papa being replaced by Onii-san in dialouge". The main plot is the same, yes, but this is a vastly different character in terms of their approach to the world and there's a ton of scenes take on a whole other meaning, especially Devola and Popola's betrayal, which is probably the most impactful scene in the game to Brother, even moreso than Yonah being taken away from him at the end of part 1.

Well for one Brother actively likes to go and do all those dumb tedious jobs because he just wants to help, and it affirms his self-worth. Weiss even at one point says "God, how do you acually enjoy this?"

The biggest difference between Papa and Brother is that in Part 1, Brother is hopelessly idealistic. He is a stereotypical JRPG protagonist to almost the point of parody, but that's to show how much he changes. In Part 1 he's still a kid at heart, someone who believes that when you're home, you're safe from the evils of the outside world.

The thing is, Papa Nier doesn't change all that much between parts 1 and 2. He changes, but it's subtle because he had already been hardened from decades of living in that dying world. Brother was just a kid, andwhen the Shadowlord and Jack of Hearts took Yonah they didn't just take Yonah, they took Brother Nier's entire world. Those cheery views, his happy-go-lucky yet budding mature attitude, the opinions that drove him to believe in people, the comforting seclusion of his village and the reliability of the people within it. He can't handle it and he just breaks down into a shell of a person from what he was before.

He's left to grapple with a grim reality which he simply can't deal with. His failings take a harder toll on him physically and mentally in a more visible fashion as we can clearly see a change in his personality and appearance. He acts more violent, puts up with less bullshit, and is prone to angry outbursts. We clearly see how he's changed, he talks a lot more about how he's "going to kill every last Shade" and his life's goal is no longer just about protecting Yonah, it changes to killing Shades.
>>
>>344808474
>It can't be helped

There's nothing strange at all about this phrase, I wouldn't pause for even a second if I heard it in an average day.

Most people drop the subject and simply say, "Can't be helped," but it's not uncommon. Where do you live?
>>
>>344815692

TL;DR essentially what I'm trying to say is that the characters start and end at different points. Papa Nier starts as a hardened, one can say numbed man to the evils of the world, and he comes to accept the bullshit he deals with if it means protecting his daughter. Brother Nier breaks down at dealing with the reality of the world and becomes a sociopath, essentially the second coming of Caim.
>>
>>344815692

> he talks a lot more about how he's "going to kill every last Shade" and his life's goal is no longer just about protecting Yonah, it changes to killing Shades.

So sort of like Caim with the Empire in Drakengard, huh?

They actually translated DG3 more lewd, edgy, and vulgar than the jap version.
>>
>>344813923
The first half of nier doesn't make much sense with father nier. It's more of a coming of age story.

The only reason father nier exists is because they thought playing an old man would make it easier for the west to swallow.

With all the censorship complaining going around you'd think this would be a big deal but it's still praised.

They also removed emil's gay inclinations toward nier in the western release.
>>
Also as an aside, there are little things that make more sense with Brother Nier. Like the fact that Nier seems to have so much trouble wielding two-handed swords. Papa's immense frame should be able to swing much faster, but it makes sense for Brother's scrawny frame. But they have the same swing speeds in terms of gameplay.

Also, Kaine and Nier falling in love (the latter returning her feelings being much more pronounced with Brother than Papa). Keep in mind that with Papa, Kaine always essentially knew the same person. With Brother Nier, before she was petrified she knew him as this weak, overly idealistic little shit that she would constantly berate for his naievete and basically tagged along with because he was the first friend she ever had. Also the age difference, befor the timeskip he's 16 and she's 17, so she sees him as a little brother. When she's unpetrified she's still 17 but he's now 21, and is not only physically older than her but has matured from a little kid into a real man (albeit an incredibly sociopathic one) within an instant. So it's not surprising that her heart is starting to beat fast around him.

Emil is basically the same, just instant of seeing him as a surrogate father, he's just a big brother. The cooler big brother most kids wish they had. Nier though has a lot more sympahty for him in part 2, as both of them had lost their sister.

It's on purpose. Taro believes that the only way a character in something like a Dynasty Warriors game could actually be enjoying themselves (or even mentally be able to just keep hacking through bodies) is if there is something fundamentally wrong with them in their head.

Was going to say, the only problem I ever recall hearing about Drakengard 3's localization is that it possibly wasn't entirely faithful, but nothing about censorship.

>>344818273

He reacts the same, but you need to keep in mind the context.

How long have the Twins been a major part of Brother Nier's life? For almost the entirety of it! Popola and Devola have known Brother for most of his cognizant life. As opposed to Father Nier though, his relationship is a whole world deeper than just acquaintance/drinking buddy/job hunter though. I've mentioned this before in passing, but now is the time that it really does matter: Popola and Devola are essentially Brother Nier and Yonah's parents at this point. They've spent years without their biological parents and the Twins have spent a great deal of time helping them in life, doing what they can, and even helping raise Yonah while Nier is busy putting food on the table. At this point, Brother Nier is now basically forced to turn his violent rage upon the only two people in this world he could call his parents.

Brother has relied on these two for over a decade, they could be considered the foundation for his very existence. As competent as Brother is, he still needs help in every day life. He may know how to kill things, but that doesn't always cut it! He'd have never been able to survive the early orphan years without Popola finding him work and Devola taking care of Yonah while he was away. These two adults he trusts more than anyone else in the world. When everyone else seemed unable to help, they were there. Father Nier may have needed the work, but he's a fully capable grown man who (probably) has some sort of talents. He could always be a bodyguard or something.

When Nier's village became dark and his house became empty and lonely, the Twins were always there. They presumably have been helping Brother (and Father) with tips and leads for the 5 year gap, so even when everything else changed for the worse, Popola and Devola remained the same. The Twins betraying Brother Nier isn't just a heel turn, it's them effectively taking the last part of his old life away.

It seemed to me that Caim's level of bloodlust seemed pretty constant, if I'm taking Angelus and Verdelet's comments as a depth gauge for it. And the child soldier level in Leonard's path.

Or am I supposed to take into context his reaction to Ending C and the arrival of the Grotesqueries, and Angelus' comments on how Caim views the current situation?

Also, despite the fact he's a bloodthirsty psycho, am I the only one who actually felt sad seeing his charred corpse falling through the sky over Tokyo. Like man, he still saved the world by stopping the Grotesquerie Queen, and his reward was an ignonimous death. No glorious last stand like what was implied in endings B, C, and D

>>344818454

Wasn't Drakengard 3's localization rushed too? My friend told me that but I never checked to see if it was true.
>>
>>344818945

A big part is that in the end, Papa could've left with Yonah and gone somewhere else and still could've raised her. They could have easily gone to live in Seafront (probably not not Facade, the rules would drive him crazy).

Brother can't. He relies on the two of them to survive in this world, and they really are the closest thing he's had to parents for a decade now.

>why is there an option to just go back to the village? Is it just a joke
Pretty much.

Just the illusion of choice as Nier and the others are already resolved to keep moving forward and things won't progress until the player bites the bullet and agrees to keep moving forward as well.
>>
>>344819029
It's weird, you can have someone who actually is confirmed for killing and eating children, but you can't have someone who wants to diddle them but knows it's wrong so he's a huge self-loathing suicidal mess.
>>
>>344819186

As horrible as cannibalism is, the fact that pedophilia is far more common in the real world makes people view it in a more negative life.
>>
>>344819178
I mean the choice feels so surreal given what you're seeing. I guess that's kind of the point since Popola and Devola are so trusted, that seeing them there as enemies would feel like a nonsensical dream.

Also it's a good retrospective "oh shit" moment when you realize that after Nier entrusted Yonah to them, they basically handed her over to the Shadowlord.

By the end of part 2 I imagine that Brother Nier could have done just fine as a fisherman or laborer of sorts. It's just sad that his makeshift family keeps getting smaller.
>>
>>344819029

but it's not explicitly shown, just talked about

there's a big difference when talking about eating kids(which already sounds silly if you say it out loud) and a guy who wants to shove his dick into little children
>>
>>344819445

Well I meant from the time between when Nier and Yonah's parents died to when Yonah was taken away.

Honestly I wouldn't trust someone like Part 2 Brother Nier with taking care of Yonah. He's become too cold and dangerous to live a normal life anymore.

It's just a shame that you can't have a character who has a complex issue like that in a game. It's clear his pedophilia is in a negative light, and Leonard knows his feelings are fucked up. On paper it seems so simple, but the way they presented it was brilliant.

>>344819645
Doesn't one of the devs consider Ending C canon for Papa Nier, and Ending D for Brother Nier for those reasons you listed? Ending C for Papa because the dev thought that a father is an irreplaceable figure in Yonah's life, and he felt Papa Nier would never let anything else get in the way of his obligation as a parent. And Brother Nier's canon ending being D was because a brother/sister relationship is a bit more flexible with whom is involved, the implication being Kaine could take care of Yonah. And I guess if you take into context that Brother Nier is basically Caim-lite at that point, it makes more sense.

D is also canon for Brother because he loved Kaine and wanted her to live.

Yes. So she can forget about her dongle.

Because pedophilia offends people and you can't have that. I'm not even sure if there are any big budget movies that deal with such issues.

Sounds about right. I'm pretty sure there are some artsy fartsy film fest exclusive films that do it.

>Like man, he still saved the world by stopping the Grotesquerie Queen,

Nier's world got destroyed even when the Queen was killed, so he didn't really save anything. In fact, it would probably have been more merciful if they just let the Queen eat time and space, rather than killing the humanity slowly with White Chlorination Syndrome.
>>
>>344822537
True, but it's not like anyone could've foreseen that. He at least saved his world, right?

>>344804070
The fact you even give a goddamn shit about Neir, or Drakengard, means you deserve whatever shit gets slinged at you. They're shitty games that only are given a damn about because it, with the grace of a hamplanet, childishly attempts to 'deconstruct' various ideas, resulting in a cringe filled shitty story with even shittier gameplay.
I still can't believe people paid cash money for 3, a game that slows down to a fucking crawl when you do something remotely strainous, in a game where you have to kill dozens of enemies. If any other game did this, it would've been rejected for being so horribly optimized, despite it being released for a single platform.
>>
>>344822938
Couldn't be anything good. Most of humanity is fucked the moment the watchers just show up, the queen being carried off elsewhere doesn't spontaneously kill all the minions

Platinum Games was hired specifically so that Nier Automata will have decent gameplay.

I'm guessing you just wanted to make an ebin shitpost and don't even know what this is.

Speaking of which, do you think that will be mentioned in Nier Automata?
>>
>>344823706
Isn't it pretty much wiped out by the time that the first Nier was over?
>>
>>344823806
Depends on how far in the future Automata is after Nier. I think Grimoire Nier said humanity dies out fully about 1000 years after the end of Nier.
>>
>>344823706
Apparently Automata takes place long after everything to do with WCS and Project Gestalt is long dead, so I don't think they'll bring it up.

Well I mean, if you say that then Zelda has no gameplay, because Nier is basically designed to play like a Zelda game. It's not the best Zelda clone in the world but it has the formula down pretty well.

>>344823378

Nier and Drakengard are not the same thing. Nier's gameplay is a little generic, but the game itself is consistently stable and for what it is it runs fine.

I rarely ever say this, but watch a longplay if you're that desperate to relive the story. The game just doesn't have gameplay worth it.

They're also the ones who added even lewder dialog to Drakengard 3, a game where characters were already openly discussing the merits of fucking a dragon. And not in a coy, euphemism-heavy way, either.
