XBox One owners have no excuse to miss out on this game. It is one of the best examples of video games as a medium of entertainment and needs to be played by every person possible. I cannot stress enough how important this game is, or how good it is.
Rest assured, if you love a great story told with devastating style, you need to play through Nier Automata several times.

One of the BEST games last generation.
PROS:
-Very interesting story that should be replayed 3 times to see all 3 "points of view" of different protagonists.
-Amazing graphics.
-Wonderful music.
-Great controls and fast paced combat.
-Gamepaly variety like no other game (you have 2D sections, other times you're controlling a ship and it's like an old arcade shooter, or you're fighting on top of a train, seriously the variety is insane and it makes the game a blast to play).
-Extremely high production values everywhere you look at. With so many games releasing with tons of bugs it was great to see a game like Nier Automata perform silky-smooth.
CONS:
-I sincerely can't think of a "bad thing" about the game. It's one of the greatest games I've played in the last 5 years and an all time favorite alongside gems like Witcher 3, Mass Effect 1, Uncharted 2, Tomb Raider 2013, Dead Space, Bioshock Infinite, Ghost of Tsushima and a few others.
CONCLUSION:
-If you like action RPGs you must play Nier Automata, is one of the very best games the genre has seen over the last 10 years.

In spite of all the odds against Yoko Taro's career, he has finally delivered a true masterpiece that finally delivers on all fronts, including gameplay. Environmental detail aesthetics lacking aside, Nier: Automata is an unbelievable game and one that just might make even the most stone cold hearted gamers well up into a weepy emotional mess. This is a landmark in storytelling that is one that embraces the fact it is a videogame and does not try to imitate film like the way most story-driven titles do.
A fantastic mix of explosive action and thoughtful storytelling, that results in one of the most unpredictable and ambitious action role-players of the modern era.
Thanks to Platinum Games' knack for riveting and gratifying combat, Automata is Yoko Taro's most exciting game to date.
Nier Automata is one of the must-play games of this generation. Beside some technical roughness, the core mechanics are strong and any fan of the hack & slash genre will find a lot of joy in it.
Nier: Automata Become As Gods Edition has a very deep and thoughtful story, but it requires a lot of time before you get down to it.
One of teh best games ever!!! awesome to play several times, I need more games like this one

I would like to start with some FAQs:
1) How to save? -> After the tutorial, you can manually save almost all over the world, as long as the area is safe. For that you just have to unlock the checkpoints.
2) Is there fasttravel? -> A fasttravel system is available after a few hours of gameplay. You can then travel back and forth between the unlocked checkpoints. But before that you have to walk everything.
+ The maps/worlds are beautiful and varied - no matter if industrial, desert or forest area. At the beginning the world is quite big, but after the 1st walkthrough I have to say that it could have been a bit more.
+ The story is good.
+ A lot of action - sometimes as a 2D twin-stick shooter, most of it in nice 3D graphics.
+ Cool bosses
+/- The 2nd walkthrough I can only conditionally recommend. The 3rd walkthrough is then really annoying. The enemies are 10-20 levels higher and you can't buy any items at the beginning. Without health boost it became so annoying that I quit the game. Big minus.
- The "tutorial" (a kind of introductory map) really ticked me off. It goes about 1h and if you die at the end, you have to start all over again. You can't save in the tutorial either. And the stupidest thing is that in the tutorial is not shown how to use the health items manually.

Ich möchte mit einigen FAQs beginnen:
1) Wie kann man speichern? -> Nach dem Tutorial kann man fast in der ganzen Welt manuell speichern, sofern das Gebiet sicher ist. Dafür müsst ihr einfach die Checkpoints freischalten.
2) Gib es Fasttravel? -> Ein Fasttravel-System gibt es nach ein paar Stunden Gameplay. Ihr könnt dann zwischen den freigeschalteten Checkpoints hin und herreisen. Vorher müsst ihr aber alles zu Fuss gehen.
+ Die Maps/Welten sind schön und abwechslungsreich - egal ob Industrie-, Wüsten-, oder Wald-Gebiet. Zu Beginn wirk die Welt ziemlich gross, aber nach dem 1. Walkthrough muss ich sagen, dass es noch etwas mehr hätte sein dürfen.
+ Die Story ist gut.
+ Viel Action - mal als 2D Twin-Stick-Shooter, der grösste Teil in hübscher 3D-Grafik.
+ Coole Bosse
+/- Der 2. Walkthrough kann ich nur bedingt empfehlen. Es werden einige Aspekte der Geschichte von einer anderen Seite her beleuchtet, und mit dem Charakter 9S hat man etwas andere Kampfmöglichkeiten, aber unter dem Strich lohnen sich die zusätzlichen und sehr ähnlichen 10h nur bedingt. Der 3. Walkthrough ist dann richtig nervig. Die gegner sind 10 - 20 Level höher und man kann zu Beginn keine Items mehr kaufen. Ohne Health-Boost wurde es so annoying, dass ich das Spiel abgebrochen habe. Grosses Minus.
- Das "Tutorial" (eine Art Einführungsmap) hat mich richtig angekackt. Es geht ca. 1h und wenn man am Ende stirbt, muss man alles von vorne Beginnen. Man kann im Tutorial auch nicht speichern. Und das dümmste ist, dass im Tutorial nicht gezeigt wird, wie man die Health-Items manuell benutzt.

Nier: Automata kept me hooked throughout its duration, but on reflection I kept playing waiting for something that never came. Although it touches on a number of philosophical themes and has a decent story, it's not as deep and it's nowhere near as mind-blowing as people make it out to be. There is an interesting narrative here, and there are emotional moments, but for some reason I was expecting more, perhaps because of the near universal praise it gets.
On the other hand, I loved the soundtrack - it's amazing, and fits the game perfectly. It really adds to the atmosphere which is already great due to the design of the abandoned city and other parts of the deserted Earth.
The gameplay is pretty varied and changes between a few styles that are all quite fun. The hack and slash did wear a bit thin for me but there's enough customisation for you to keep it feeling fresh if you put the effort in.
Overall, it is a beautiful game, and after getting the 5 main endings I can say it's worth playing. It's a creative and different title. I did like Nier in the end, but I just wish it had story beats I could have truly been surprised by and been in awe of.

This may be one of the worst games I have played in quite a while, it's an utterly tragic affair. It tries really hard to blend rpg, platforming and shmup elements into some cohesive story rich experience, which is **** it simply stumbles and smashes it's face at every step.
The "platforming" sections are marred by awful camera function and instill a massive sense of pointlessness. The exploration is a waste of time in the empty, boring world, which can take an age to traverse at times. The general combat is tedious and repetitive, with next to no satisfying payoff at any point. Shmup patterns and controls feel amateuring at best, leaving anyone with any experience in the genre bored to tears or laughing out of despair.
The only redeeming factor is the soundtrack, which is just wonderful. It's just a sad fate for the composer, that their talent and hard work is forver attached to this sad excuse for a game. How anyone is giving this 5-6/10 is confusing enough, seeing the 10's on display is just outright hilarious. Quite telling that they often never say what is actually good about it and just call it a masterpiece.
Avoid like the plague, or just watch a longplay and play anything else. You'll have served your time better in the long run.

Summary NieR: Automata is an action RPG set in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by machine lifeforms and abandoned by mankind. As part of an android army created by humans to reclaim the planet, players will fight their way through the mechanical horde using a collective of close-combat weapons and ranged attacks.
