Alright, I got it. It would be exactly a month's time if I didn't skip a few days because being otherwise busy. Terrific stuff. To put this shortly, Automata is an improvement in every way except charm and character.

If I had to give an advice for new players, it would be to NOT be a completionist, just do side quests as they come and go with the flow of the story. If one is going for the true ending most of the side quests will be doing themselves anyway and the satisfaction is spread more evenly this way.

Congrats bro! :D
Wish I could play it again for the first time..
Now we wait for Nier 3!

BTW...
I dunno if you know this already but Beepy is the "God" who emerged from a "vulcano" in Nier Automata

Oh I was wondering what that story was about. Interesting.

It's actually incredible.. when you piece together the whole puzzle.
Although it seems Beepy is trying to kill Kalil when he smashes the roof, he's actually trying to break through so he can save him.
As for what happened to Beepy later and how he became a "Volcano God", here it is directly from Yoko Taro

Nice, maybe they are announcing a new pachinko machine!

Edit: according to Twitter, "色々と準備しております" - not very specific but let's hope - the 色々 makes me optimistic.

OSTs are out on Spotify. I really like this new trend from Japanese developers. But Square aren't new to Spotify. They have most FF and SaGa OSTs on there.

Yeah after I completed the game I read that you can actually do all endings in two passes and I was close to making it, only lacking one weapon that you can get in a quest that I missed.

I'm doing Route A in Automata. My plan is to complete every side quest on my firs run and then do the other endings after.

Endings in Automata aren't different conditions. They are sequential stories, you think when you've finished route B they might just be alternative what ifs/end states on the same story but no you've only played a quarter of the game's content.

I won't be doing all quests on my first run. It turns out that I missed some already. I won't let that hang on my mind as I'm having fun.
