Nier: Automata is technically a sequel, although only in the loosest sense of the word. The lack of connection to its predecessor was actually not even one of its most unusual qualities. And, for the record, I mean all of the following things with love – but, damn, Nier: Automata really went out of its way to be unapologetically complicated, melodramatic, and off the wall.
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.
Nier Official Twitter: "Today, February 23rd, Nier Automata is 7th anniversary. Thanks to your support, the total number of global shipments and downloads has exceeded 8 million copies. Thank you for your continued support. We are looking forward to hearing from you."
Game is amazing. It deserves these accolades. Very depressing game, but tragic and beautiful.
The fact that Yoko Taro has confirmed that at SOME point we will get another Nier... Has set my heart at ease. The thought of what they could do with an actual budget on newer systems is scary. Please shower this man with money so that he can make yet another gaming masterpiece.
