Dongattack posted:What's the saving like after the tutorial? Like, how much progress are you looking at losing on average later on if you die? Died to the two saws 30-40 minutes into the tutorial and that refund button is looking really tempting. when you die you leave a corpse with all your chips. if you die again you lose that corpse with all its chips, which is the point where you load the game since the game never auto saves. basically even if you die you dont need to reload since you lose nothing unless you die again without getting your corpse back.

You can check my embarrassing post history in this thread to see how tilted I got by dying in the tutorial but I'm now deeply crazy about the game. Just set it onto easy, the lack of save points in the first hour of the game is easily the worst design decision in the game by a wide margin (but yes, it's a really horrible decision).

So what is the reason for the lack of a day/night cycle in NieR? Impending doom? Queen beast cluttering the skies?

It's explained in NIER 1 that the Earth rotated on its axis in such a way that, in the parts of the planet that aren't frozen over, it just never becomes night. This is also why you can't actually see the sun in the sky. bunky posted:Maybe I'll try it again, but that didn't work for me. Maybe I have a conflicting Nvidia setting or something.

Unsurprisingly popular youtube critics that didn't like the first game, didn't like this game. A bunch of my more reluctant friends are finally giving this, and the first nier, a shot though and that's great. It's really fun watching them try to guess at the plot while they're still in the A/B playthrough. I'm pretty happy that Nier is so popular now.

Thoughts on the digital OST off Amazon. Not bad definitely missing a couple of the really good multitrack tracks.

lol, the game straight up just played it self when i flipped it on easy, was pretty funny to watch. Also served as a much better tutorial than what they tried to cook up since i could sit back and analyze everything 2B could do. At least it got me past that grossly designed part so i could save. Instant feeling of "oh no.." as i discovered chip sets and felt the need to get them all seep into me.

Secret boss is being an rear end. It's fun but then I lose concentration and die. So I'm gonna grind to 99 and if that doesn't work I'll put it on easy for a bit. I'm not too proud to do that. Just too proud to buy the drat trophies. I will earn recognition for running around with no trousers on for an hour legitimately, drat it.

Dongattack posted:Instant feeling of "oh no.." as i discovered chip sets and felt the need to get them all seep into me. Primer on chips: Each type of chip has a number of different tiers (Base, +1, +2, etc), and each chip has an equipment cost. Each tier of each type of chip has a minimum possible equip cost (chips with this lowest possible cost are denoted with a little diamond icon), but it's also possible for another example of the exact same kind of chip to have a higher equip cost. If you have two chips of the same type and tier, you can fuse them together at certain shops into one chip of the next tier up, and the equip cost of that new chip will depend on the costs of the chips you fused to get it - fusing two diamond-cost +1 chips will get you a diamond +2 chip, etc. A merchant on the Bunker will let you buy upgrades to your chip equipment capacity, and this is one of the best possible things to be spending money on early on. Also, obviously be on the lookout for chips with low equip cost - often it's possible to replace a chip with an exact duplicate that just costs less to equip!

The first one is pretty hard to include, tho
