First for I wanna fuck Manah

I've done nothing but listen to the OST and read through these threads /v/ too since beating the game, I hope they continue beyond this.

Rip Pascal

X uploads data to bunker

X dies

Data transferred to Y

Isn't it tragic how many 2Bs and 9S' have died? They basically create a clone of themselves but they themselves die, embracing eternal darkness.

OP, I just want to tell you how glad I am to have been a part of these threads.

Is the general going to die?
Best one out of all the chans...

Where the fuck are some elaborate gadgets. I am out of quests.

Either this general stops existing or we watch it slowly (rapidly) devolve into shit just like all other generals on Veeky Forums.

Isn't that basically what happening whenever you quick travel?
Kinda takes the impact away from the whole thing.

Bloodborne general has held out pretty well.

I just got ending E

Well it's nothing what i Expected.
I thought i get another bunch of side quests will have to grind every single weapon in the game, bust my ass for week grinding shit and then get my anus raped by some secret boss that one shots me when the screen is black and credits are rolling.
And i heard someone moan they got raped harder than in D3.
Is all of that shit in the sidequest?
Is E not the TRUE ending?

>they continue beyond this.

I want a "shit going down" era prequel game so bad. They already have the "cast" for it, easily. Human Tyrann, Emil, Gestalt Kali, Grimoire Rubum before she breaks or whatever.

They truly were, an Aqua Teen Hunger Force...

Oh, and happy 26th thread OPFag..

...

2B9S
O T P

I don't want these threads to end. ;_;

Does Luci still go there?

What it is about 9S that draws all females to him?

I think we can handle another cycle of A-Z before things get like this.

I just don't want to leave this post E high of chatting about the game nonstop with you guys.

Nah the final boss is as bad as it was. You can fight another if you upgrade all your weapons.

>21O will never be your mother

>21O will never offer you a surprise in her room on her bed

So the rape is optional or did i just get the blue pill ending?

There's also Ending Y, for which you do need all the weapons fully upgraded. It really isn't that difficult, but it's still important as a side-story.

I think fast travel's executed a bit differently in how it allows them to continue with the current stream of consciousness, while 9S's deaths were basically taking out a separate pre-saved personality to return to factory settings.

>gave the game to a friend to he can play it as well
>get a message today
>'ending N was funny'

>Ending Y
>Expected a quick Easter Egg boss
>got one of the most tragic moments in the series

Is this a fucking joke? 5 threads since yesterday?
Doing god's work OP, thanks for seeing this through you're still a fag for not including my poll to op

Opinion changes from time to time on desirable traits in men when it comes to media.
Right now small build, not necessarily short, but not weak, with soft features. Maybe like a dancer.
This doesn't translate over into real life however which always seems to be a constant "Swimmers" body type plus neat beard.

Huh. Is the background art that appears in some of the weapon stories in Automata the Pact symbol?

At least Jean Paul Sartre got what was coming to him.

This game is really something else

Anyone made a list of the endings in order you can obtain them?

I don't want this comfyness to end /ndg/ bros....

>After 9S loses his shit you can buy a chip that makes enemies scream in pain when killed by hacking

Full fucking nuclear

Oh grow the fuck up
It's just a fucking game, and not even a great one like ME2 or Witcher 3

You've done a great job, OP. It's been a true pleasure

>2B in lead
You took this to /v/ didn't you.

It's similar, at least.

Also, all weapon stories:

>middle-aged woman voices 20 something character
This needs to stop. Kills my boner too.

I feel you may have some issues outside playing video games.

Got ending [E]. Should I use continue to start a new playthrough or use chapter select?

I've consumed media and fiction all my life, played and watched more stuff that I can count to the point of becoming completely cynical and practically unable to be impressed by anything.

A few things managed to make me tear up before, Automata straight up made me break down crying like a little bitch by the end. Like someone had punched me right in the feelings.

There's really nothing else to this post. I've just felt like absolute shit for the past two days. I still randomly tear up a bit whenever I think about it like some dumb teenage girl who got dumped by her boyfriend.

I'm not sure how to deal with this.

I think this happened to more people me included

The only thing that us hitting Route Z means is that I wont be making the threads anymore.

It's time to release controls and watch how /ndg/ controls its own destiny.
Whether you start from zero and count up, or start from route A and go back to Z, or whether we hit our eventual heat-death and burn it all to the ground like /dodg/ is up to you, and I don't want to influence that.
Am glad people enjoyed it, though.

>Iron pipe

You fucking what

What's up with the philosophical references in this game. It's literally everywhere.

Undertale was better
Even Yatzhee thinks this game was nothing special and was holding you hostage at the ending because the tedium and repetition forced you into being invested into these bland, forgettable characters.

you are missing the point which is Mikhail pissing himself.

But yeah, english dubs can go fuck off

>Cause We're Gonna Shout it Loud
>Even If Our Words Seem Meaningless

He didn't say it was incredible, but he said he liked it but didn't really know why.

>/v/
Why would I even try to go to that shithole? Friendly reminder that A2 was in the lead for first several hours.

I had to stop playing after what happened to the robot children.

After a week or so, the pain dulls to a pleasant ache. These threads help a bit. 2b porn helps a bit more.

I want Caim to be my friend too

>but he said he liked it but didn't really know why.
And then he realized that he didn't like it at all reading back on his notes and said that it was basically Stockholm Syndrome forcing the player to feel invested in these shoddy characters. It's a shit game.

Will you really stop baking breads OP? Can someone else take the throne?

I disagree but I respect you think otherwise, friend.

How do you manage to function in the real world.

I got physical chills during the section where you clear out the village. I feel a bit of a faggot even typing this out but man no other game I've played has ever elicited such a strong response from me. I'm really glad to have played it.

It honestly seems like 2/3 get the feels kicked out of them this time around and the other 1/3 is entirely uneffected.

Don't listen to these assholes
I completely feel you user
It's that Taro meme magic

I dunno. Making threads is as easy as just copying the OP, the subject and updating the thread number, and linking to the last OP post. That's all you really gotta do.
Who says it needs to be an individual?

They don't
I'm noticing a trend here
NEET and literal autists praise the game for being deep and emotional, but normal people think this game is shallow, too melodramatic, and all over the place plot-wise.

I've been fishing nonstop for 5 fucking hours now. I just need that fucking swordfish.

(you)

The reason I didn't feel a thing was because nothing in the game is new or unique and has been done elsewhere as this trope is one of, if not the most overdone trope in sci-fi.

That and I'm not a 15 year old that cries over robots dying because the game told me to.

We are a big family after all

I'm jelly, user.
I enjoyed Automata and even felt something a little, maybe my eyes got a little wet. And the ending felt very healing and nice. I had a warm fuzzy feeling playing that danmake with shit saying "Dont give up Skeleton"

I'm getting really jelly of feely people.
Some times i wish i could give a fuck but i cant.

Still it was very nice.

>posting in a community for a videogame just to harp on how much you dislike the game
>calling anyone else autistic

So why exactly are you in here? Would you like to discuss one of the other games, then?

He probably deliberately made it more painful for them.
What happens if you hack 2B or A2 with them though? Will they scream from pain too?

Is it just a feelbad chip or does it actually do something?

...

reload the area every once in a while, I fished for it for 2 days and then got 5 in quick succession

fucking saved

There's a machine version too

Its perfect.

I've got that. The only thing left is the OG one.

Anyone got the pic of Taro flashing his crotch?

Kill a moose nearby. Y'know, chum the waters.

Not saying I didn't enjoy Automata, in fact I enjoyed it a lot but I enjoyed it for things that weren't the typical Taro shock factor.

Since we're done after this thread, post your favorite images from last 2 weeks

m8 that's fucking saved

>Start new game after E
>Expect NG+ Toggie action with extra enemies
>instead literally play One Punch Man against level 1 mobs

Why Platinum?

Are you serious? Or just dense.

Dude wants to make different kinds of games and loves experimenting so I kinda saw that as a given.
I liked it for different reasons than I liked the original.

Despair.

This pic, everytime.

I have the gif too somewhere, but I can't find it.

Why wasn't this version in the game?
vocaroo.com/i/s1qlull1ebwI

Could've sworn that if you just hit continue instead of new game, you start off fighting against level 60 enemies.

This plus pic related.
Can we do it? A weapon to surpass metal gear?

...

It's a weird feeling, that's for sure.

100% and upgraded all weapons.

How do I trigger the fight~?

...

Is Automata selling well?
