2B is hot tho. I ain't playing that game. It's too fucking long and it looks boring.
Pan up. The game has mods... I don't think I need to sell you more.
I personally really enjoyed it. Post nut clarity really helps engage with the philosophic part of the game
Hmmm yes I’m feeling particularly philosophical while playing this one
That PVC model butt tho
The way you described it makes it sound boring
Because it is
The philosophic part is the worst part
It's just a ham-fisted clusterfuck on a scale worse than the original ending of Evangelion (and that franchise also sucks btw)
Why did you play until it became philosophical if you didn't like it?
It's called giving the game a chance.
Also, that's not the quality of retort you think it is. Having a lot of players getting bored and dropping a game before it gets "good" is a bad thing
,If you don't enjoy the gameplay after let's say 2 hours, it's fine to just stop. If you play something without enjoying it, that's on you.
I'm not aware that many players dropped the game. AAFAIK, the game was positively received and many people liked it.
And I didn't say that it takes a while to "get good". I said that it takes a while for the philosophical themes to show.
Most people that drop a game out of boredom don't tend to talk about it that much. That just lets the diehard fans dictate the narrative about it, especially for one that requires multiple playthroughs like Nier
It's well liked by critics (88% on metacritic) and the audience (very positive on steam). Your opinion is an outlier. Let other people enjoy things.
It doesn't require multiple playthroughs. The game's chapters are just structured in a weird way. Each "playthrough" that's required has a different perspective and/or story than the last one.
Even if you consider each chapter a "playthrough", then each of those is just a few hours.
There's plenty of movies on metacritic with high rating but completely boring. Not really a good metric for quality
It's developed by platinum, so gameplay is anything but boring.
Played it, it sucks
A pity you couldn't enjoy it.
It doesn't deserve to be enjoyed. It's garbage.
Haters gonna hate, huh? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Deserving or not. People enjoyed it and nothing you say is gonna change that.
All games will be enjoyed by someone... It's called target audience. or something like that.
It’s anything, but it is also boring or it’s not boring?
It is many things. Boring is not among these things.
No, it's boring
You've said that already. You're entitled to your opinion that many people disagree on.
I don't care
You comment a lot for someone who doesn't care.
Ok. The second comma should be dropped.
This game is NOT boring. Would play even without the hot android up-skirt.
No, it is
I suppose boring story-wise? I personally enjoy the kind of storytelling Drakengard games have, it's full of slow buildup sidequests with usually very sharp endings. Also how dramatic it all gets. Loved Automata so much that after fully completing it (except for that evil one-shot DLC arena) I went and ran through Replicant, too.
But they do take a lot of time to complete and I suppose if you are not that much into all the 19th century philosophy and all the emotional damage characters suffer, that can be boring.
Another thing, if people here persuade you to try it somehow, a controller is mandatory for this game and do try different keybind presets the game offers, the default one sucks.
The 19th century philosophy bit sounds neat. You make this game sound more fun than anyone else has. I may need to reevaluate.
