Don't forget the women in the power plant town; where the typical fashion is short-shorts, haltertops and fishing pants that leave the crotch exposed.

I wouldn't say that the characters are 'dressed weird', I'd say more that "Yoko Taro wants to jerk off to the characters he puts in his own video games". Which, I mean okay more power to the man and all but that's certainly not 'dressed weird'.

IIRC the big reason stuff like Nier and Drakengard 3 exist is specifically because some SE exec(maybe even the CEO) likes him a bunch and will fund his games despite never selling all that well.

I do like that S-E seems more willing as a publisher to take on more niche titles. I wonder how they continue to make money though with FFXV's development consuming the GDP of a small island nation.

According to them it broke even. But nobody knows if they mean the actual development time of 2 years, or if that includes the 10 years Nomura used up.

Yeah, my roommate picked up the game because he wanted something more straight-forward, linear, and actiony, and wanted to stay away from open-world games.

He hosed up pretty bad.

That nothing exists of the original Versus 13 trailer in 15, other than a modified version of Noctis' character design, suggests that very little was actually done before work started in earnest on FF 15 three of four years ago.

I have that $15 promotion from the PSN store but I want to see if the Steam release of Nier is a little better optimized.

Not until you go to share them in FF15, and the camera roll is independent for each save slot IIRC. Gravity Rush dumps them into Captures immediately but also keeps its own record too.

I haven't played Automata yet but it looks fun so I'll probably try it. Nier as a series is definitively divisive though, more than you would get talking to goons.

drakengard wasn't divisive; it was a bad game with interesting/crazy story elements

nier was divisive because it was a good story wrapped up in a mediocre at best game

automata is still an interesting narrative but it's an actually legit good game this time. I don't think there will be many people on the fence over this one because both parts pick up the slack this time
