Possibly a dumb-O question but I was ok waiting for this to drop on Steam but I can't find anything about gamepad support anywhere, and I can't fathom trying to play this on M+KB... anyone heard anything about gamepad support for this?

Steam page says Partial Controller Support, no reason to believe it's not going to support at least 360/Bone controllers.

I can't imagine this not having controller support to the point that lets you play it like on a ps4. That would be insane for a title like this. IT would be like shipping steam MGR with incomplete controller implementation.

Wow, fair enough. I actually preordered the tshirt version of this game today, if only I'd have known that Square Enix were assholes maybe I'd have kickstarted an anime game or something.

dazat posted:So I cleared the game, save for leftover side quests/joke endings. Are you kidding me? The story was better in the fact that it turns out that the game is about us gamers finally banding together and putting a stop to yoko taro's usual bullshit of killing characters that we grow to like and making us feel bad. Now we get to feel GOOD/BAD. Also I missed those crucial sidequests that really flesh out 9S/2b and I still felt a huge stake in the characters but that's just me.

Does the EU/US version of Nier: Automata come with the japanese audio track? The english voices sound annoying as gently caress.

Genre-melding is one of Yoko Taro's signature moves, so if this is a huge turn off then you might wanna consider giving this one a pass, or at least looking at some videos of gameplay. I personally found it really good, and while some sections had stranger controls in different camera modes, the overall experience was great to me.

https://twitter.com/yokotaro/status/838218887204241408 So Yoko Taro followed me and tweeted this back after I asked him about controller support. I tweeted @ square Enix but I doubt they'll be as responsive. It really speaks to this man's dedication to his fans that even when he doesn't really have an answer, he'll go out of his way to respond.

the way steam classifies controller support is weird. Dark Souls has partial support but you use it all of one time, when you assign your character's name. So I'm sure it will be fine.

I still really liked it, I just think NieR's execution was better overall. I guess the "EVERYTHING WAS A BIG CONSPIRACY" swerve didn't impress me as much since NieR already did it to better effect. 2B and 9S were really well-developed and Ending E was touching, both for the happy ending and Yoko throwing loyal NieR fans (whose support is basically the whole reason Automata exists) a bone. arisu posted:Still feelin' bad about operators 6O and 21O. I feel like the Operators are a good example of how plot essential most of the side quests are. 6O crying over flowers and 21O mentioning wanting a family has way more impact if you do their quests first. Also there's the foreshadowing about E-type units, A2 doing nice things for the robot kids, 9S making a grave marker for 2B and 2B's audio recording for 9S, the latter of which isn't even a side quest and is super easy to miss. Josuke Higashikata posted:It says there's a minimum possible skeleton crew running the moon server where Humanity's data is stored and a piece of intel shows that not every single crate sent to moon is empty. Perhaps they're the ones doing that? They'd obviously be in the know about the facade and most invested in keeping that secret I missed that, thanks! Basically wanted to know so I could better imagine Jackass heading up there and kicking their asses, lol. dazat fucked around with this message at 06:46 on Mar 5, 2017 |

Uh, anyone ever had a preorder that cleared ages ago display the error message "preorder payment failed" when you tried to preload it? Only information given is "please try to purchase again." Uh, no. You took my PSN credit already. And no way to contact support until work hours tomorrow. Ugh. Edit: Might have just been a stage in switching to preload. The failed preorder is still in my download queue, but a second preorder just got added that is now downloading. Weird. Bugblatter fucked around with this message at 07:10 on Mar 5, 2017 |

Steam forums are about as bad as the other brand official ones like Microsoft, Nintendo's or NeoGAF. Too much tribalism and pride in their purchase to make sense.

Based on what little information I've seen about the PC port it seems like it'll be of the exactly the same quality as MGR which isn't amazing but is perfectly playable.

It was locked to a max resolution of 1080p and frame rate of 60fps and if you were unlucky (I was), running your video card through HDMI would force your display to output at 24hz meaning it was actually entirely unplayable. This was never fixed, but I believe there's a mod that does fix it now. I had to use a third party program to fix it at the time. There's rumours going around NieR's port is the same in regards to resolution and fps but I don't believe they're substantiated.

The game was locked to 60 fps, but someone released a patcher like a month after release that let you use whatever res you wanted. I wouldn't be surprised if Nier were locked to 60 fps, but it'd be odd not to include higher resolutions this time around.

I guess it's pretty safe to assume it's 1080/60 then, but I'd not count it out 100% because that's quite old information and possible that something was lost in translation. Didn't know about MGR's key rebinding but that's because I'm not silly enough to try play a character action game with M+KB.

I usually play character action games with a controller but MGR was a special case because I hated aiming zandatsu's with the controller so I played it with KB+M mouse instead, which actually worked pretty well.
