Died on the (C path spoilers) 1v1 with Pascal and Engels that part seemed impossible so I figured it was a scripted loss

Does this video game have more or less content/things to do than the original NieR? I'm approximately 30min in and it feels like a full blown RPG.

an NPC told me to save often while in route c, I haven't looked at the spoiler thing yet but I'm guessing the mean it when they say death is a hard game over now

Yup, makes sense considering what happened at the beginning of it.

I haven't even tried the fists yet, just been using shockwave +6 on the fastest weapon I have

the engine blade at level 4 gives you the ffxv dodge and damage numbers

Ok between the C/D story stuff, that awesome tower scaling boss fight swapping characters, the chapter select function, the trophy purchasing shop, and the debug menu stuff, AND the fact that there's still 2 more endings to see this game is firmly Godlike.

Don't get your hopes up...

I just started campaign C or D, I dunno which is which yet, and it's getting fairly out of control. This game is so good and crazy.

I'm still pretty early in the game and I had something happen that spooked me to the core...it started with "aint no way that area down there is explorable"

I've played through this entire game on Hard and by far the hardest part is the loving race side quest.

I just did that one last night at level 12, I realized the trick is to just have her run long enough to get the speed blast and not dash constantly then optimize your route. I had just one 8% movement speed equipped!

Does hard difficulty offer any extra bonuses/rewards?

that race is best one using nonstop dash dodging with a lucky perfect dodge to slow down time, if you have the good chips it gives you four seconds longer than the normal run

Ok I got the 5 major endings. The C/D/E endings are incredible...i seriously sat at the last question for like 5 minutes thinking "well I kinda do wanna get the platinum, but on the other hand, most of it is just collecting weapons I don't care about and getting endings that I can just look up on YouTube, so what am
I really even losing? But in the end I wasn't strong enough

I also took approximately 100 screenshots over the course of my playthrough and I'll upload them at some point once more people have played the game

Also now that Im "in", so to speak, I guess I feel obligated to 100% this game, warts and all. Gonna need some hefty gamer notes for this undertaking.

Now that I'm finished with Breath of the Wild I can finally dive into this. Fought the boss from the E3 footage and now I'm totally in love with this game. Between this, Breath of the Wild, and Persona 5 soon I'm hitting a critical mass of win.
