Squeenix NieR: Automata from Yoko Taro and Platinum Games

Checked the music video. As expected, it's quite grimdark, implies children being hurt/killed (if they weren't dolls, or are they?*), and it ends with the protagonist in a terrible situation. Truly fitting for the game.

As for the second trailer, apparently not-Yonah will invariably rebel against the system at some point, but chances are it will end badly. That companion who supposedly takes cares of "her maintenance" will also betray/be horribly killed by her as well. Lastly, she'll suffer severe damage at some point/be hacked, if that sequence in which she was shutting down in the middle of a bridge means anything.

In short, trolling is assured.

I can't wait to become clinically depressed and suicidal thanks to this game.
But then, that's what I play a Yoko Taro game for.

During Japanese livestream: PC version has delayed because they're preparing a better copy protection, as they saw RE 7 and others cracked too fast.

Probably they're waiting the new version of Denuvo.

Fuck sake, how about treating your paying customers with some fucking respect SE? It's not like games without shitty DRM never sell well, delaying the pc version and basically having no marketing or any info will hurt the sales way more then piracy ever could anyway,oh the stupidity...

 

[sullynathan]

They know their base. The PS4 is where this game will sell

NieR: Automata for PC launches March 10, ‘Arsenal of Elegant Destruction’ trailer

Square Enix will launch for PC via Steam on March 10, Square Enix announced.

The release date is confirmed at the end of new trailer introducing the game’s unique array of weapon types, combo system, and fast-paced battle mechanics.

But oddly, videos uploaded on SE's official channels (NA, UK) don't have Steam release info. Another fuck-up?

Of course i mean it's SE that's what they do: fuck up everything.

 

[Jasede]

Hmmm... well, the robots are obviously children. But that's too obvious so I wonder what the real twist is...

Not only that, the linked trailer has the Ps4 release for the 7th of march, while the official trailers on the SE pages has that one on the 10th. Something is wrong here...

system requirements?

SE removed the trailer with Steam release info from their PR site.

Now this is really ridiculous.

edit: now they uploaded a version without Steam release info.

PS4 master race.

I didn't want to play on my badass desktop anyway.

Uhhh... such a retarded value calculation. This game is going to fly off the shelves on hype, postponing it until everyone's nerves cool down can only hurt sales.

You'd think at a certain point Square Enix would completely stop trusting its own judgment.

They have human souls inside... Oh wait, already done.
You're going to kill everyone at some point. Nope, also a given.
Everyone will die... Nevermind. It's a staple of the series.
This will be hard. Either way, these are some sweet moves for a Cavia character. Platinum's hand at this is obvious.

 

[Arthandas]

I won't lie, I'm hyped as fuck for this game. I had constant erection while beating Revengeance.

 

[Gerrard]

SE openly ignoring the issue.



By the way here's the stream where they mentioned the piracy thing.

Well, that makes me more wanting to believe a theory (?) that SE signed a deal with Sony about being silent about PC version for a certain period. Apparently Sony is the publisher of this game in Asia and other non-US/EU/JP regions.

 

[vortex]

Apparently, indieapocalypse is affecting Sony too.

 

[HoboForEternity]

less drama more butt

also square enix is always shit, thanks captain obvious. more news at 11

 

[Gerrard]

I guess this is literally all the game has to offer. I saw some autist getting excited over the fact that her model has indentation where the thigh highs end, as if an android made for combat needed that. Seriously 10/10 design.

E:

Nice proportions.

 

[polo]

Robo waifu, why japan never surprises me anymore?

I would bank more on the PC version being dependent on hitting some sales milestone first, but an exclusivity deal could certainly be involved as well.

Yeah that's bs they allrdy announced it and said a few times it's going to be released early 2017 and why would it matter how much the PS4 version sells anyway? there is absolutely no connection.

The guy in the interview did literally drop "because of that thing that happened recently to RE7".
