I’m shocked with the scope, the size, and the feel to a game that is now two years old (as of March 7th). It is still very much a unique title that offers up about everything you ever dreamed in one single experience. The fact that you’ll want to replay it speaks volumes about what is in store for you. There aren’t a lot of games that make you want to revisit them so quickly, but NieR: Automata is definitely one of them.
Nier: Automata is a really compelling piece of science fiction. It builds on the thematic foundation of sentient robots and takes into a bold and heart-wrenching direction. The emotionally rich saga is further bolstered by an intensely memorable soundtrack that add so much flavor and extra dimension to the multiform narrative.
NieR:Automata remains one of the greatest games of this generation, if not of all time. And with all of the game's content available in one complete package, there's no excuse to not check it out now. If you're someone who already owns the game, however, the Game of the YoRHa Edition doesn't offer much for you to justify buying it again.
It’s no question that NieR: Automata is one of the most memorable video game experiences in this current generation, and the NieR:Automata: Game of the YoRHa Edition is a convenient and cost-effective entry point for newcomers.
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.
If you haven’t pulled the trigger on NieR: Automata yet, this is the time! As a brand new player, I feel ridiculous for waiting this long to dive in. Dearth of new content or not, the Game of The YoRHa edition is a terrific good time.
This is one of the greatest - if not the best - games ever created. The story is intriguing and immersive; the combat is incredibly smooth and challenging to an accurate level of the difficulties; the characters and world is terrifically developed and I have replayed it many times (which is a must), but also come back to it at numerous occasions. In addition to this, the soundtrack is, in my opinion, the best video game soundtrack of all time.
Firstly, a 2017 release - graphically does not hold that great in 2020, however the gameplay mechanics still do and are astonishing, i was pleasantly surprised and impressed many times over, the entire system is seamless, the boss battles are some of the best I've ever experienced, so many layers, so much depth..... so many phases! There is so much replay value if that's your thing, it's a game that actually encourages you to in order to see the other endings.
The music/soundtrack compliments the action so well, I personally didn't understand the story... nor did i really care for it, I've only done one playthrough and I won't be doing another.
I do feel this game is overhyped though.
The game was not so great now, it was totally overhyped. The gameplay is very fast, and the game does not manage to develop personal proximity to the characters.
The soundtrack is outstanding.
I honestly cannot understand the respect that this game gets.
Very bland combat (and that is all that you do). The story is typical JRPG nonsense.
Voice acting is very poor. Attack, dodge, rinse and repeat.
I tried for about 4 hours and gave up and got rid.
From what I had read, I expected something life-affirming but it was dreadful.
