I need more of these.

>just sold 99 machine cores

>kamikazes in the desert
serious flashbacks my man

Madman actually done it

...

S P E C U L A T I O N

I gave up on farming them for money and just abused the gold ore price change. It was ~200k profit for each stack of 99.

>tfw you just want to protect the forest king with your bros but a bitch and her fuck boi slaughter you

>literally just her dress with short sleeves
I get triggered every time. Fucking lazy artist.

thirsty 2B is best 2B

A2 is the cutest!

The Forest King is the only boss backstory that got close to Nier's emotional gutpunching.

I want a pacifist route.

...

Nah. Look at all the android corpses. Theres male and female and none have genitalia or nips.

Standing theory: they MIGHT have an anus as they can eat food even if it does jackshit for them so that has to comeout somewhere. They could vomit it out but why mention the amazing taste of eating it but omit the bad taste of hacking it back up as thats some Yoko Taro levels of enjoyable despaid he'd build on a bit.

You don't even kill him or his infant body

...

Explain.

...

Playing with auto-heal + healing build on hard...Am I bad?

artist?

...

>9S corpse has tits
>none of the androids have speakers behind their teeth
Errors detected. Taro may retroactively base android physiology on Platinum's laziness, like he did with the day/night cycle in Nier, but as it is the corpses aren't proof.

Also, 9S has a bulge.

Who else was super disappointed in the weapon variety/weapon upgrading?

I really wanted more weapons from Drakengard 1, 2, and 3 to show up in this game, in particular Caim's Sword, Slaughterism, and Moonfire. In addition, I'm supremely disappointed that leveling weapons up no longer changes the way they look.

>buy 99 gold ores from amusement park in route A for a little over 2k a piece
>chapter select to route C where the prices go up on a lot of shit
>sell them for around 5k
>chapter select back to route A
>repeat

you could also do it with other materials sold at that vendor if you don't have enough money to buy 99 gold ores at the start

Is there any reason to use laser pod over gatling?

Don't do gold ore, do the Thick Dictionaries.


It penetrates through targets. Can hit multiple in a line.

Plus they're all practically identical. The differences between them are functionally irrelevant until level 4, at which point the differences become minor.

A little bit.

I wasn't too disappointed with the amount of weapons, but I was kinda sad that upgrading them didn't change their appearance.

...

He actually doesn't. For some reason males have that Ken Doll flesh bulge down there.
Even Adam and Eve have it like their groin drops an inch deeper than it should but its still smooth skin.

>changing chapters resets quest progress

Why. Fuck this. Actually fuck this.

>The Forest King is the only boss backstory that got close to Nier's emotional gutpunching.

I dunno man, fighting the deranged Emils hurt...

If we're able to make androids that can easily pass as human, I'm sure someone somewhere was able to artificially mimic the human voicebox and vocal chords so you don't need a creepy-ass speaker in the mouth.

...

Is there ever a reason give why it's always daytime in Nier and Nier Automata? Did the Earth have an axis shift or become tidally locked and the area the games take place in is the sunlit side?

>You will never ever attend Yonah's birthday party, and throw back some brews with Papa Nier as he's grilling some burgers while the kids of the village are running around and playing.

I know he's Japanese and they don't grill like Americans do but still fucking kill me.

Who's the coolest fucking NPC in this game?

And why is it Father Servo

I wish there were more Standard Yorha type weapons in game. Really dig the sleek, simple look.

Android corpses are all fucked up. Whatever is ripping off their faces and boots would get genitals too.

Father Servo is hilarious. Jackass is the coolest.

Animal Loving Machine and Jackass.

I don't know if it was posted before on other previous thread, but just in case.

I can't beat his lvl 40 stage, god damn 2 hits me, spent like 5-10 minutes and only had 1/4th of his HP down, going to take forever.

I think I read somewhere that either the WCS helped tidelock the Earth, or something humans did during the fighting did.
Either way, half the planet is an iceball and devoid of life.

>Witness the glories
>Pass on witnessing the glories

It's over friends.. no more anything. Nothing matters anymore.

>playing for an hour without saving
>eat jackass's mackerel
>die
TAROOOOOOO

Yeah, I liked the standard YoRHa weapons, especially the blade and the Type 4O spear. Their stories were nice, too.

>jackass is the coolest
t. Jackass

well its not like you didn't get warned

After his mobage he will either have too much money to care about doing anything but fucking his wife or not enough money which will lead to him making more games. Taro is a creature of habit.

>Be some random kid shade living in the Shadowlord's castle
>Have fun with Gestalt Yonah
>Play with DevPop when they visit

Seems like a comfy time

If he does it I would actually be glad. He's a guy with a lot of potential and I would rather have him do something he wants than something he has gotten bored of and doesn't have a passion about doing now. Although I would obviously prefer if he still had that passion and kept on doing videogames, but if he doesn't then the only thing I can do is be glad that he pursues what he wants to do. Sad to see him go though.

Aside from Emil and the twins, is Desert Camp vendor the only one with a VA?

>play for an hour without saving
>game crashes due to some error
PLATINUM GAMESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

So this is how it ends...

Its amazing how many people managed to do this when she gives you the fish right next to save point. I'd saved just out of habit before I even talked to her.

Theres plenty with those areas perfectly intact.

>implying he hasn't done this before
We'll be seeing a new Taro game in the future. NieR Automata beat FFXV in the Metacritic states but vastly, vastly less money as well. Companies seem to care about that a lot.

Best disciple.

>He haven't read bomb manual, machine report, and tried e-drugs

Do Android's pee and poo

Pretty understandable if you think you'll just die and don't expect an actual ending. You wouldn't lose any real progress by dying.

>anons complain that localization teams keep trying to make characters Kaine 2.0, including A2
>Japanese art based on Japanese VA connects A2 to Kaine
rilly makes u think

How the fuck do I get the Lunar Tear for Emil in the flooded city without triggering end game? It's so fucked.

...

It triggers on kill

Just leave those machines alone and run to the flower

Isn't the trigger point stepping into the flight units to fight the big bad machine?

Don't use the flight units.

>classically trained cook
>asian qt3.14's are my thing
>i can get greencarded for work
>speak weebanese cause i was curious about subtitleless animes
>also a NEET with social issues
>having to not hide my weirdness cause that shit apparently sells like crazy over there

Its like a match made in heaven.
Someday i'll work at The Drifting Boar and all the impossibly smoking hot waitresses will be wearing gothlita and stilletoes while i occasionally check on choice customers wearing various Taro-Verse masks.

The trigger is getting into the flight units. You can just ignore them and keep doing side quests.

I'd like to see some hard numbers about their budgets and sales down the line.

>playing anime games with english dub

>Taro Mobage

I'n going to whale the fuck out of it and make Team Nierman

>Yonah (Child)
>Yonah (Timeskip)

>that one time when the operator calls 2B to cry on her shoulder that she got rejected by another operator
Wait wait wait wait. So Bunker is a fucking spaceship full of robo-lesbians?
That's my fucking fetish

What is rumouredto be remade? DoD 1&3 + Nier?

I dunno if they're all lesbians, but it's not too surprising that at least some of them would be interested in each other.

>so many chicks on my facebook excited to cosplay toobie
>none of them even considered the thought of objectively better girls such as A2 and Commander

BAH

They're all futas, except for the Commander, who must keep her soldiers "under control".

How soft is 2B's back?

Same. I personally was expecting a higher budget for Automata looking at SE's marketing. Hopefully we'll get some numbers and a goddamn PC patch down the line.

Best Intoner and best Disciple. That whole Branch D was fantastic.
>rotting Five and Dito's betrayal
>Dito begging Zero "no no no no NO" before he can touch her and turns back into a dove
>Five's speech throughout the boss fight

Apparently a Nier or Drakengard re-release/remake might be on the cards if Automata does well enough. It apparently has, but I've only read hearsay.

It looks pretty hard in that picture desu

After beating Automata, I kinda wanna replay all the games in release order.

Except 2, since I don't have it.

>in a private FB group
>find out we have 2 legit camgirls and an escort that camshows on the side
>whole group managed to convince/pay the escort to team with one of the camgirls to do a Commander x Kaine
I know you're reading this.

>remote control medium sized dude with cannon type
power overwhelming
>transporters put their shields up when you get close
its the little things

>prologue has a 4B unit
>later you find a 4S unit
Huh. Wonder if there is female body type running around with the 9 personality.

>no IV on Four's forehead

Oh shit /caviagen/ is back. Too bad I haven't finished Automata yet, let's see if the general is still alive by the time I'm done with the game.

I honestly didn't mind this much. It made it easier to just use whatever weapons you think look the coolest.

She already has a fourhead

So I went to the desert to look for boxes I didn't open. I ended up going back to the pit where I fought Adam for the first time.
I keep clearing them out, but more keep spawning. I already opened the box, but the exp is too good. Will they ever stop coming?

They collectively agreed Four was a cunt and replaced her with some random village girl.

How do I stop remote controlling a robot I hacked?

How can I fix the shacking camera when I look up? Ps4

Same as self destruct. Press and hold both analog sticks.

Hold down both sticks for self destruct.

Someone posted this patch a few minutes ago.
>Special K 0.7.38 (64-bit) with configuration set to fix resolution problems in NieR.

Before the S models were developed, all of the androids were female, It's not surprising that they'd start to develop feelings for each other.
The same shit happens in single-sex schools, prisons, armies, or any other environment where a bunch of girls/guys are stuck together for extended periods of time without contact with the opposite sex.
