Actually, no on first glance I wasn't a fan of 9S' 1920's schoolboy uniform. But the look, and the character, grew on me.

Nuebot posted:Anyway, some route B stuff; So the factory is the junk heap from the first game, right? And that god that you see the cut-away to when you first go to the housing complex, was that beepy? Or does that get explained? 1. It's certainly possible. 2. Yes, he is. There's a novella about it, even. Does this mean Nier might be the robot devil? Maybe.

Personally, I like picking female protags in 3rd person games because if I've got to stare at a butt for hours on end it better be a sexy one.beep by grandpa posted:But I also thought every Raiden design (MGS2 > MGS4 > MGR:R) got progressively cooler and cooler which is prob a much more goon-harmful opinion Sombrero Raiden best Raiden.

Augus posted:I thought it was a bit on-the-nose that the androids were being objectified Replaying this game has been fun. After you first meet Adam, 9S and 2B always mention him as looking like an android, or talking about why he would want to look like androids, never thinking that maybe they weren't the ones the robots wanted to emulate. It's also how funny how 9S starts off as a nerd with a dumb outfit and embarrasses himself real bad with the Nines conversation and then the rest of the game happens and it re-frames pretty much all of his interactions

Emron posted:I bought some of the more tedious trophies (gently caress fishing), but a platinum is a platinum, and ending E by painstakingly deleting the evidence of my experience for the purpose of helping someone else is just perfect. What a great game. Spoilers for all of Yoko Taro's games: It's so cool because it's just like Ending D Nier. Sacrificing yourself for someone else's sake, helping them get past this barrier to get Ending E, if it was an out of nowhere rhythm game like in Drakengard it would've gone beyond perfection. The fact that there are people deleting their save data to lend a helping hand for no reason or benefit and even then that their helping hand can possibly be lost forever only helping one person is the most uplifting thing.

Lol I haven't seen this dumb thing posted in like a decade. It's like meeting an old friend. I usually prefer playing female protagonist for no real particular reason but it's all so insufferably politicized now it's not quite as cool to me as it used to be.

So I have a question about going back and doing sidequests via chapter select. If a chapter says it has say, 20 sidequests in it, does that mean you can START all those sidequests in that chapter or that you can complete them in that chapter but you may need to start them earlier?

Defiance Industries posted:1. It's certainly possible. I translated the full version of that novella (the one linked to only covers half the story), and yes it does imply the robot god in the desert cutscene was Beepy, although that's as much of a reference as he gets. Also on the topic of sexy androids I thought the Commander was going commando (lol) but it turns out she's also wearing a (very sheer) leotard.

Augus posted:I thought it was a bit on-the-nose that the androids were being objectified More broadly (route C spoilers), they're a result of the androids in charge of YoRHa not really understanding human beings. They're attempting to make the androids more human in spirit, and they understand humanity's two greatest obsessions to have been sex and violence, which is why the YoRHa androids are all designed to facilitate murder and look sexy. They're wearing "fetish outfits" in the anthropological sense of the term: by dressing the YoRHa units in short dresses and and equipping them with a katana, they think they'll somehow become more human. They're really no better than the dumb robots in the desert wearing stupid, meaningless masks because ancient humans used to wear them and bumping their robot bodies together in an imitation of loving. Neither of them understand what lies beneath the sex and the violence - the ultimate reason why human beings had sex and engaged in violence. The outfits also serve as a clever bit of extradiegetic writing, because the more you come to care for 2B, 9S, and A2 as human beings, and not simply as dolls, the less you notice the irrelevant surface attributes. The cutscene camera knows this, too: later shots are almost overwhelmingly focused on faces and hands instead of full body shots. Vermain fucked around with this message at 04:36 on Mar 23, 2017 |

Wait a minute...! Nobody actually knows what's behind the secret closed doors with apologetic suicide robots in front of them? I though that would be some kind of post secret boss thing or sumshit.

Since the doors were pretty well hidden and all. There's definitely going to be at least one piece of DLC though.

Lord Cyrahzax posted:A2 literally wears painted on lingerie, but I'm not sure that it's worse than the other standard YoRHa fetish gear She wears a top and shorts  Even in B mode A2 looks more dressed than 2B which is odd but true. They could fix 2B by adding tights and/or removing the huge rip in the front of the dress btw. Idk what's going on with commander's outfit though.
