Nier Automata Story Trailer

Square Enix today unveiled a brand new story-driven trailer to introduce fans to 2B, 9S and A2, the assembled army of androids enlisted to help reclaim mankind’s disturbing dystopia in the upcoming action-RPG, NieR: Automata.



In NieR: Automata, Humanity has been driven from the Earth by mechanical beings from another world. In a final effort to take back the planet, the human resistance sends in 2B, 9S and A2 in a hope to destroy the invaders. A war between machines and androids rages on... A war that could soon unveil a long-forgotten truth of the world.

NieR: Automata is developed by SQUARE ENIX and PlatinumGames Inc. and will be available on 10th March 2017 for the PlayStation 4. A free playable demo is also available to download now from the PlayStation Store.

God I want this game so fucking bad, but I can't in any way afford a PS4 to get it. Ugh. So sad. Nier is still one of my favorite games of all time, and still has the greatest soundtrack of any videogame.

THIS GAME LOOKS FUCKING LIT. HOPEFULLY SQUARE PLANS ON BRINGING THIS TO THE SWITCH (Platinum said they'd do it if Square provides the money)

Though, if the Switch flop on day 1, I'm getting a PS4 for this lol

Oh man that makes me happy to see. I really hope it isn't too far after the PS4 release...granted I don't have a damn choice one way or the other.
It was a time ago when they announced PC version, and it was a same release. Can't put my hand on source right now, put I'm pretty sure it was announced with the same release.

It's coming to pc, but delayed. In the recent stream, pc version was mentioned & they rolled out the piracy Bogeyman.

Was just a small bit of info in the stream, so not many sites picked it up.

"
Furthermore, Yosuke Saito stated that some ‘recent certain games‘ were broken on the PC during their launch period, and that’s something that PlatinumGames is not comfortable with.

Yosuke Saito claimed that it won’t take long to release NieR Automata on Steam, however it’s almost certain at this point that the game won’t be released alongside its PS4 brother."

So yeah, rolling out the "omg piracy" excuse.


Plenty of other games to play, this one will go straight onto the "wait for sale" pile then.

Pfff 'piracy', it will end on piracy team's website anyway. I'm waiting for this game but I'll wait for some crash test, learned my lesson with FFXIII.

Ok, so apparently pc version is the 10th of March.

This version of the new trailer



Lists the Steam version coming on the 10th at the end of it.

So :blink:. Maybe some miscommunication going on then. Hopefully it's not an error in the trailer or it was going to release then, but "piracy" so will be delayed more.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
