I wonder what they have to announce for Automata.

 

[Kiya's Guard]

Nier and Elden Ring, let's go. Also I want Gestalt

 

[Bridges]

I wonder what they have to announce for Automata.

Switch port, maybe? Seems unlikely to be DLC or anything, right?

Or could be info on new Nier game....

 

[Mr Hyde]

TGS suddenly got relevant again.

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

Now that's the real shit.

 

[Danjin44]

TGS is now super hype!!!

gimme!!!

 

[DESTROYA]

TGS is now super hype!!!

gimme!!!

Have you been watching Prison school ? I’ve noticed a pattern lately.

 

[Danjin44]

YES rewatching it again.....that show is hilarious.

 

[GrayFoxPL]

Nier, far, wherever you are.

 

[GrayChild]

Nier, far, wherever you are.

... I believe uncle Yoko'll go on.

 

[Hakiroto]

I wonder what they have to announce for Automata.

Maybe a patch for the messed up PC port?

(one can dream)

 

[Fake]

I hate to break the surprise, but this is for you Danjin44

 

[DonF]

TGS Is back on the menu boys.

 

[Arachnid]

This is almost as hype as the Silent Hill announcement I know I'll get at TGS!

 

[TintoConCasera]

Between this and Atlus assistance... it seems that the last gaming convention will be the good one.

 

[ACESHIGH]

Nier Automata: properly coded edition for PC!

 

[Lionel Richie]

Give me this, Cyberpunk, Yakuza 7 and Elden Ring and my PS4 can retire in peace.

 

[Camreezie]

I'd give a lot for automata 2

 

[Knitted Knight]

I'd give a lot for automata 2

It's coming isn't it? After the success of the first I doubt they would pass it up?

 

[Bombolone]

I'd give a lot for automata 2

Good news, good news.
I'm playing through Automata and getting a bit sad at the thought it's gonna end.
I just finished the 'Emil' side quest last night. What a beautiful piece of game.

 

[Danjin44]

Yoko Taro doesn’t do direct sequels, this is why instead of working on Drakengard 2, he made NieR Replicant/Gestalt instead.

 

[Camreezie]

Goddamn I hope so

 

[Danjin44]

Goddamn I hope so

We might get new NieR but just like pervious games it will take place century after Automata.

 

[ZZZZ]

 

[D.Final]

I'm expecting:

Nier Automata, for PS5/Xbox Series announcement (with maybe some little extra surprise)

Nier Re-incarnation, trailer and release date

Nier Replicant, Ps4/Ps5, Xbox One/Series- December 2020

 

[Jeeves]

What does the art in the middle pertain to, do we know?

 

[Danjin44]

[Jeeves]

Oh.

 

[Danjin44]

 

[Danjin44]

I'm curious to know what changes Taura makes to Replicant's combat system. I don't mind improving the overall combat system from the original game but it still needs to feel different than Automata, since Replicant NiER is not an android designed for combat like 2B and A2 is.

 

[bender]

Is this Nier without this ugly mug?

 

[Danjin44]

Is this Nier without this ugly mug?

In Replicant NiER is Yonah's brother instead of being Father like in Gestalt version.

 

[Vaelka]

BUT WHY DOES A COMBAT ANDROID WEAR HEEL IN MY SUPAH REALISTIC GAME!?

 

[Danjin44]

They are not the only ones....

 

[mcz117chief]

I am more interested in the mobile game. I don't have any hope in the remake, there is zero chance they will recapture the same feel and atmosphere. NieR is a lightning in a bottle.

They themselves said is really not a "remake" rather its "upgrade". As for the NieR Reincarnation, its mobile game and that means it gonna take forever to get released in west.

 

[TheKillerStove]

I know Yoko Taro doesn't like to continue on things he's already done, but I really hope we get more Accord in Reincarnation. I love the concept of a time traveling android cataloging the multiverse for an unknown reason.

God, you have no idea how much I want new Drakengard game starting Accord, she is the secret best character.

 

[killatopak]

The superior NieR game.

 

[Danjin44]

Why they made NieR Reincarnation a mobile game...why? why?

You can't upgrade NieR though. Any alterations will inevitably result in dulling the game. Any changes to voice acting, graphics or music will just make the game less of what it originally was. Stabilizing framerate and increasing resolution is probably the only thing they could do without compromising the overall tone of the game. Even the lacking visuals give the game its mystic feel, much like the mist in Silent Hill which was only added to hide the LoS limitations but turned into an essential part of game.

Considering the phone game, it might come or it might now, I don't really mind either way. So far, I only really liked Drakengard 3 and NieR from Taro so I hope he just keeps chugging stuff at a wall randomly so that he might create another game I enjoy.

Well its known that Nier had a whole bunch of stuff dropped because development was difficult. The additional ending is something that could be reinstated fairly easily and the whole transition from the lost shrine to the Shadowlord's castle really ought to get fixed as it simply doesn't fit geographically in the final game.

 

[Raven117]

Yoko has to be involved or it’s pointless

 

[JORMBO]

I really hope we get it this year.

 

[Airbus Jr]

Is this sequel to automata?

DoNt U hAvE pHoNeS?

 

[Punished Miku]

Is this sequel to automata?

No, this is a remaster / remake of part 1. It does have some minimal story connections to Automata as a prequel, but it's mostly a standalone game.
