Is it war this time?

(Played in Japanese on Steam Deck. 36 hours, 59 minutes and 24 seconds to get Ending E on Normal at level 61 with 95% Quest done.) By the time I beat the closest thing NieR Automata has to a “final bo… Read more

A lot to offer, and a lot of confusion

(Note: This is my Steam review of the game. Steam review allows for a limited amount of characters, thus, I didn't have enough space to reflect on certain things like graphics, soundtrack, and perform… Read more

The "Ah-ha" moment

It's going to be hard to articulate how I feel about this game; there is so much I liked but I have no idea why, couple that with some pretty rote gameplay it's really strange how much I enjoyed it. T… Read more

A pair of androids start a journey that leads to a uncertain conclusion

Over the years I’ve seen games that tried to take the multiple perspective angle with the story they were trying to tell. Most have done an average job at best but now a game has taken it to a whole n… Read more

Transcendental Realism

Appearances deceive. And even though I consider myself a person that respects that trap, I never expected that beneath the surface of a videogame with high-heels and samurai swords I would come across… Read more

Meta-Game of the Year

*I'm reviewing the PC version. Nier: Automata on a fundamental level is a good action game that has solid foundation of heavy and light combat system with some shooting mechanics. The adversary one fa… Read more

A Truly Inspiring Masterpiece

After having sunk around fifty or so hours in to Nier Automata I can comfortably say it is nothing short of a profound masterpiece and an astonishing example of the medium of video games at its absolu… Read more
