Nier Replicant ver. 1.22…One Month Later

Shaz Mohsin writes: “Nier: Replicant ver 1.22 does more than just remake a cult classic. It effectively updates the core gameplay to modern standards, albeit with minor limitations, and adds to an already engaging story with fantastic narrative additions in a new heart-wrenching main quest, and a new ending that completely flips the original game on its head. Every character, both main and supplementary, are well-written and compelling, with their own unique quirks; though unfortunately, some questionable decisions regarding Kainé are hard to disregard. And though the multiple play-throughs aren’t as unique as Automata’s, the journey to get there and experience those final moments are still well worth it.”
