If action RPGs with esoteric stories are up your alley, you owe it to yourself to experience NieR Automata. Stat.
Stellar Blade's creative director, Hyung Tae Kim, has also claimed that the game is deeply inspired by Nier: Automata.
I feel like Yoko is downgrading Automata because he has expressed multiple times he'd like to revisit the universe, but Squenix hasn't been keen about it. We know he loves 2B and would love to take her out for another spin, so maybe this is how he gets the company to think about it.
I get he's giving them some credit, but i strongly disagree based on the demo. I honestly don't think any aspect of it feels good, it's not bad, it's just kinda ok but definitely a little jank. Also the souls like formula it is adopting does not help it imo. I was looking forward to this for years, now im just kinda let down honestly 🫤
Man exputer can you stop putting words like that after someone's name, i read Yoko Taro Passes and just went blank
(From the demo) Stellar has better direction in terms of stage layout if you like that ninja gaiden type feel. Nier is more polished by far.
IGN: "We talk to Yoko Taro and Hyung-Tae Kim about the ways that Stellar Blade is inspired by NieR: Automata, comparisons between EVE and 2B, and much more."
A sequel to Square Enix and Platinum Games' action role-playing game, NieR: Automata, has been teased by series creator Yoko Taro.
If it can be done right then amazing, yes please. Yoko Taro seems to change it up each time so I'm curious what a 'sequel' really means.
Tifa is a good sign. There's at least some hope, lads.
Just maybe they'll leave things alone.
Plus, like people are saying - Taro don't play that sh*t.
Too many good games lately and I'm already out of money...sigh!
Its still getting great scores.
The initial reviews are stunning so far! This title is definitely on my must-play list. I plan to buy it after Horizon: Zero Dawn, a game which I haven't even bought yet. Nioh eats most of my gaming time!
My brothas and sistas we need the nier remake!
Jeez the great reviews just keep on coming! Sony has lined up the first few months of 2017 with enough great games to keep me busy for quite some time. I'll get Nier day one as I loved the demo and I want to show support where it deserves it. I'm taking my time with HZD though at the moment but I love adding great games to my collection.
