They upgraded with materials in Nier 1. You're thinking of Drakengard 1.

It was a loooong time ago. Either way - how much should I bother? I feel like on one hand I want to buy all the weapons but on the other hand it eats through money when I want to buy memory expansions.

Use whatever you like. They all seem pretty equally good (I honestly could barely tell the difference between most of them) and upgrade whenever you have enough mats. Don't be like me and ignore the plug in chips for a long time. I made the late game of route A super hard by not fusing them and equipping good ones.

Well, you can get along fine with only the starting gear, but weapons still have weapon stories. Gotta love those. If you need money, there's always fishing.

Do you still get the all endings trophy if the last thing you do is get ending E and erase your data?

Just a few thoughts after finishing the main content. Really cool game overall. I liked how quirky and weird it was. I initially found the combat really shallow, and I guess I still think that but it really grew on me and I was having a blast with it by the end when you have all sorts of options. I hated hacking at first but it actually pairs with combat in a really fun way imo. Great soundtrack and nice art direction.The story and characters were mostly fine, but I can't say I really got all the feels everyone refers to. The story was pretty decent but I wasn't ever super glued to it. The characters were all pretty one note and cheesy. 9S annoyed the poo poo out of me and I thought he was incredibly lame. As far as the gameplay/world design goes. I had a lot of issues with it, but at a certain point I kind of stopped caring and just sat back for the ride. it's not worth detailing every little gripe but I really wish the overworld was bigger and more interesting, the shmup sections were better, and some more enemy variety would have been great. Still I like how much it marches to the beat of it's own drum. I'm sure it will be a big time cult classic. I might buy that DLC just to whack more stuff with swords if it well received . veni veni veni fucked around with this message at 06:45 on May 1, 2017 |

It was cool they saved those for last but part of me wishes they were in the regular rotation to add variety.

At the Ending E. I must have missed something. The pods reference "the six of us," when there's only five, by my count: 2B, 9S, A2, Pods Humpty and Dumpty. Who is the sixth man?

The sixth is you, the player Or because there are three pods each

It's been said several times in this thread, but Speed Star can go right to hell. Any tips for the second and third race outside of Run Speed chips to +20% and Speed Salves?

Just don't make a single mistake. On the third one, time your airdash so that you don't pancake on the ground.
|
# ? May 1, 2017 18:43 |
|
The slow time pod program can give you a head start. On the third race, if you do an air dash and then heavy attack with a heavy sword off the building you start on, you'll move diagonally forward and down, which can get you to the ground and running faster.

Activate self destruct (click both sticks in) while you are falling and you'll fall faster and recover instantly on the ground, allowing you to dash the moment you hit the ground. Doing this got me through the last race the first time I tried this strategy, after having failed it like 10 times.

Speed boost chips kick in once you're running. If you slow the robot at the start, just running with those chips maxed, no dashing, gets you going pretty well. There's also tricks like hacking a faster robot, though, if you want guarantees.

Also, asking again: fuckin unit data man, I know I must be missing rare spawns but I'm also at 91%, did I just not kill stuff at some point in Route A or B that was out of the way? Is there a comprehensive enemy list somewhere in order, even if I have to mash triangle a bunch?

I like how they probably could've replaced it but Yoko Taro apparently just went "Nah man, just bolt it back together."

So post-E thoughts. The machines absorbed everything about project Gestalt and Nier and everything else they could find out about humanity and whatever was on the moon server too? (Hm wait so Adam was left out of the loop, oh well) Doesnt that make the machines the best hope for humanity's return, or at least continuing its legacy?
