The Memory Cage Novel tells out why dummy. He's figured it out every time.
Matthew Howard
I like it.
Josiah Clark
Just to make a guess, the yorha squads we see usually consist of about five members. They had three, so maybe the other two were an E and her target. They saw the killing, found out the E's purpose, killed it (or watched it kill itself) and decided to bail. When they saw 2B, they noticed the similarities to their own E and knew she didn't really have any intention of detaining them.
How should I progress to 100%? Quests, Boxes, Enemies, Weapons, Endings? Which first?
Mason Young
Can somebody with the game on PS4 describe the touchpad controls? I know rubbing the touchpad is headpats, but I'd like to know the other one's too so I can setup macros for my DS4 on PC.
Anthony James
Right tap is menu and left is shortcut menu.
Sebastian Moore
pressing right side of the touchpad brings up the menu, same as pressing Options. Left side brings up a quick menu for items and Pod attacks, similar to pressing Select in OG Nier. Also, once you unlock debug mode it can be activated by pressing R2 and either side of the touchpad.

>well he figured it out every time let's help him find out this time haha that would be funny
This explanation is sound, thank you.
You need to get all weapons to get all endings. You need to get 95% enemies to get all quests.
Isaiah Myers
Oscillating Temporal Paradox?
Lincoln Gomez
Thank you kindly. I'm assuming when you say press you mean tap, and that the clicks are either the same as the taps or they do nothing.
Ayden Kelly
I mean click. I don't play a lot of shit on PS4 so I don't really know the ins and outs of the controller. I'm not sure if just lightly tapping would have the same effect.
Josiah Cook
Same as far as i know.
Wyatt White
Look numbuts it's going to happen. Let him learn this time won't change what will happen.
And that's him being dead and revived to be used once again
Aaron Wood
yes so the greentext is correct even if it's dumbly put
Xavier Fisher
You think Toobie likes it in the butt?
Sebastian Cruz
Is deleting my save after ending E requires for 100%? Does it grant any additional cutscenes or story content?
Nolan Martin
Nah, but it does offer a final feeling of catharsis and finality. I'd recommend doing it once you feel like you're done with the game, whenever that may be.
Hunter Nguyen
just a new title screen

So, any PC bros can confirm how bad is the port? Want to buy it for my PC too...

Convince me to buy you a steam copy senpai

ITS OUT
Christopher Morgan
i just want a new dmc game but capcom refuses to make them also thanks but no, i'm just gonna pirate it and buy it once i have the money
Leo Peterson
1. This is nothing like dmc 2. By the time it gets cracked (months) you will have the money
Sebastian Phillips
It's not DMC
Kevin Hill
they said an hour remaining an hour ago reeeeeeeeee
Xavier Hill
It looked awfully similar to bayonetta from what I've seen, which is sufficiently close Also, why would it not be cracked in the near future?
Nathan Ortiz
Denuvo
Jayden Williams
>Daily thread reminder! >2B9S Both are 5'2. Heels on 2B make her 5'5. She is 330 pounds and he is 286 pounds.
>Commander 5'7. Without heels 5'4. She weighs 368 pounds
>6O/21O Both are 5'5. Without heels 5'2 They weigh 320 pounds.
Sebastian Lee
why is 9S so light compared to the others
Julian Cook
what a bunch of fatasses
Connor Murphy
Literally what it was designed for accordingly to her Meta-Master and creator. Taro personally held the whip to make sure the 3d team didn't slack off.
Tyler Allen
No tits or fat ass.
Jacob Powell
It's not. Why do you want to play it that badly if you don't even know what the game is about? I expect a lot of PC players expecting dark souls or dmc gameplay and throwing a fit when they find out it's nothing like it...
James Reed
ToB and RE7 were both cracked within the space of weeks.
>it's not I mean in terms of gameplay, not plot. I know the shit taro pulls, and I know the gameplay that platinum makes.
Joseph Parker
What are androids, Legna?
Dominic Martinez
RE7 got cracked in like 5 days, Denuvo is kill
Liam Clark
Golems that ripped skin off of humans to wear.
Colton Evans
>still not out on PC It better be out by the time I get back from work. I need to play it again.
FUCK OFF NO WAY
YOU
YOU
YOU DOUBLE DRAGON
Ian Kelly
who is this Last Story faggot
Juan Lopez
It's an RPG and every single encounter can be overcome by mashing light attack and dodge.
Gavin Barnes
RE7 had early denuvo builds. Hitman took literally 6 months and total war is not even near it. Anyways, can we not talk about piracy and that shit? This place is comfy I don't want crack/piracy shit here.........
Jayden Smith
To be fair in most of the endings he never gets with Manah, cause they even made a short story about how him and Manah will never get past that kiss in ending A.
In Last Story you have to fucking get with that mary sue while best boy died as final boss.
Brody Morales
anyone know if i can buy large gears and pristine screws? if not where can I farm them?
Nathaniel Davis
Why is everyone so mean to me, Manah?
Evan Nelson
because your game a shit
Robert Perry
because you aren't caim
Zachary Edwards
Why do you have to ask so many goddamn questions?
Luke Wright
Because your existence is a mistake. You mom also never loved your dad and wanted to fuck her bro.
Aaron Cruz
Emil sells them when he's going turbomode near the resistance camp
Gabriel Lopez
Your dad is fucking Inuart.
Do I gotta go on.
Logan Hill
As someone who loves the shit out of both Bayonetta (and most of Platinums other major games) and Automata (and Taro's other works), Automata really doesn't offer the same thing traditional Platinums previous games do.
There's potential for flashy use of your moveset, but beyond that it's missing many of the elements of traditional Platinum games. The game doesn't particularly reward high skill level combos, and the games levelling system and some abilities specifically exist to trivialise certain aspects of combat. Outside of specific bosses the game doesn't particularly challenge you either.
Automata's combat is definitely something that feels like it's by Platinum, but what it's attempting to deliver is more of an action-gameplay based JRPG that has unique mechanics involved than a traditional action game like Bayonetta or DMC. Not to mention that a sizable portion of the game involves dialogue, going from place to place and non-combat gameplay so it really isn't the focus of the game.
In other words, if you "just want a new DMC game", Automata will not deliver on that.
Brody Cook
Drakengard 2 fascinates me
how bad can it be?
it's Platinum's Okami
Logan Gonzalez
>You mom also never loved your dad and wanted to fuck her bro What is this word "fuck" mean, Legna? Why does my mother want to fuck her brother?
Julian Hughes
She wanted him to put his penis inside her vagina.
You have a penis. Girls have a vagina.
James White
THEY ARE THE SAME AS KIKES, MUH BOY

Liam Collins
Comparing it to okami is praise, though. Okami didn't have the deepest combat although it did have some neat shit you could do, but it was 10/10 regardless of that.
Fair enough. It's still a platinum A team game, though, so it's worth interest for that alone.
Dylan Murphy
DoD3 is the earliest game in the timeline right? Why are they speaking modern English?
Lincoln Myers
How big is this game? My PC can barely run Rainbow Six.
Nolan Martinez
A HUGE SHIT

Cooper Bennett
Okami shits on Automata but the comparison seems apt for Platinumfriends
William Lopez
I thought that this was b team and a team was working on the now cancelled scalebound. I wonder what that team is up to right now anyway
Christopher Powell
Because Yoko Taro doesn't give a shit.
Aiden Sullivan
In size? 45 Gb aprox on ps4.
Andrew Walker
>Okami will never come to PC
This is a fair assessment. It's still a lot better than Nier's combat, and the story/characters hold up. That's all I could ask for.
I'm more disappointed by the fact that there's no big fishing quests. I guess the whiners won this one.
Noah Parker
I have hacked into your memories and retrieved video feed from your experience and converted it into internet-ready format for viewing.
Lucas Robinson
If kaine is intersex that means she has a vagina and a dick? or just a dick?
Either way I'll still fuck her all day.
Easton Kelly
She got both.
Robert Richardson
>I wonder what that team is up to right now anyway
[heavy breathing]
Austin Morales
this happened to me too. I'm glad it seems to have happened to quite a few of us
Asher Price
She's a hermaphrodite. So she probably has a pretty small or average sized penis.
John Miller
For lorefags, I have a question for you in term of continuity and timeline regarding Nier and Automata Is it me or Yoko fucked up a bit the plot in its continuity between nier and automata?
I understand the whole concept of YoRHa and shit, but something doesn't make much sense when it comes to "hide the truth from androids" plot part: outside sources state the last gestalts died on 4198, effectively defining the exctinction of humanity (further confirmed in automata as "approx 4200" in a document). Aliens showed up on 5012, so there were still a rather long timeframe where Androids should have realized humans were all dead.
Let's assume one bit that they still managed to do some damage control. How was it even possible considering it took 800 years for humans to disappear on earth? I mean the Popola and Devola models were shunned for years because it is common knowledge Nier P&D 'fucked" up the project gestalt. So shouldn't androids be really wary about the very few remaining Replicant and/or merged Replicant/Gestalt? In that scenario, I wouldn't be surprised if every android would horribly go overprotective towards the remaining humans, so having that info not leaked sounds like a stretch to me.
Coincidentally, does the game explain when the all YoRHa plan started? The war started a little less than 700 years prior Automata, so things are a bit sketchy in the meantime.
Levi Phillips
Kek, that's awesome. Thank you, Pod.
Adrian Clark
>PC bros will NEVER EVER pet the pod
Henry Hernandez
hermaphrodite =/= intersex
Learn the difference faggot, in the books is explained that Kaine have both, a pussy and a donger.
You can even read when she masturbates in the forest after killing shadows.
