So I played the original NieR some time ago. I liked what I did play, but never got to experience it enough to form a definitive opinion, but man, was that combat not the best. If it was just a little refined, I could like it more… And then Platinum Games came along. And that’s the transition to start talking about NieR: Automata.
So, when it came to the শীর্ষ ten, I thought it would be hard for any game to just break the শীর্ষ ten so easily. Most of my শীর্ষ ten পছন্দ games are games I have cherished memories with. But NieR: Automata, I have no nostalgia for, and yet it managed to break right into the শীর্ষ Ten, and beat out both Silent পাহাড় 2 and No আরো Heroes. So let’s talk about why. Taking place in the বছর 11945, a group of androids known as the YoRHa Unit are fighting a seemingly endless war against a group of machines on the earth to save it for the good of humanity. One of these androids, the fighter 2B and her partner, a young scouter named 9S, go across the ruins of earth in the hopes of salvaging something, and many deaths and many, many tears are experienced throughout the game. Mixing this game with Yoko Taro’s insanely brilliant লেখা and the grand polish of Platinum Games’ gameplay, this was a match that sounded too good to be true, and yet here we are. The game has a real fun combat system, where আপনি can use two swords at once to perform different combos, and with all weapons having different speed, attacks, and such, it’s good to experiment with them. আপনি also have a Pod, a little robot assistant, that helps আপনি shoot enemies, and can also perform special moves that really hits them. All this gives আপনি a chance to try out new things and to see what works best for you. And it doesn’t stop there, cause there are also Chips, which give আপনি different stat boosts, like speed, strength, health, and so on. And I thought changing out weapons would be experimental, but the chips really change things up. And what’s আরো is that 2B and 9S have different gameplay mechanics entirely. 2B is a fighter, so she is just your usual Platinum player character, but 9S is as weak as a baby, so he relies on hacking into robots to destroy them from the inside, turn into them temporarily, অথবা have them fight alongside them. The world of Automata is also breathtaking. I remember just seeing the City Ruins and thinking, “damn”. And boy, little did I know there would be আরো glorious moments like that. I could honestly make a তালিকা of my পছন্দ moments from NieR: Automata alone. The game can get painfully depressing but also poetically beautiful all within the span of a few minutes. Seriously, the সেকেন্ড আপনি start the third route, আপনি will feel like আপনি just had your হৃদয় torn out দ্বারা Yoko Taro has he starts LOLing. And, again, the music. That damn score is so beautiful, and any song in the game where the vocals kick in really adds to it. I could spend hours talking about Automata’s world building, the depressing nature of it, and how it also connects to psychology, but that would take forever. And then there’s the side content, like all the side quests, all the weapons to collect that all have their own stories, the really wacky secret endings আপনি can get out of nowhere, and getting to see my boy Emil again from the first game is always a joyful experience. God, why is there so much to talk about in this game? I’m so used to just spending one page worth of talking about the game, and yet I want to talk about Automata all the damn time. I just প্রণয় this game so much.
Okay, slowing down now. NieR: Automata is a beautifully depressing game and probably the best game on the PS4 right now. Yes, better than Bloodborne and Persona 5. Maybe not on a technical level, but it managed to impress, amaze, and keep me invested from start to end. And yes, 2B has a nice ass. Please contain your thirst, people
A car is violently flipped over.
"Yo! What the fuck!?" The passengers cried angrily.
"OPEN FIRE!" Officer Shane cried, and all the officers started killing the suspects, though they were no threat at all.
However, Shane ended up accidentally shooting chief Rick Grims, nearly killing him.
"Oh nooo... He's been shot because দ্বারা the criminals" Shane called out nervously.
Shane and the officers ran over to the fading away Rick.
"By the way. If আপনি die অথবা fall into a coma.. I'm gonna sleep with your wife" Shane's voice ব্যক্ত as it was fading away.
AT THE HOSPITAL
The doctor violent punches Rick while he was still unconscience.
"What আপনি do doing!?" Shane cried.
"My job..Sometimes people FAKE being in a coma. This man's not.. Unless.. The first মুষ্ট্যাঘাত knocked him out.. Either way, we won't know for sometime" the doctor replied.
Stay tuned for more..
