The rest of the game is actually just one extended sewer level. Turns out they ran out of funds from creating the party-tank.

If I recall correctly, it did say that several locations had successful merging of replicants and gestalts. They were in the minority, but it's not unfeasible for there to be several hundred thousand who made it, give we know very little about the population numbers at the time of project gestalt.

This is why I don't think any of the ruins are really 10000 years old. After merging again at whatever point after the original Nier, the humans would have had plenty of time to rebuild. They kind of would have had to had something besides quaint fantasy villages in order to launch ships to the moon and build orbital bases full of androids and all that. So the ruins are probably uh...7000 years old? Wait nevermind that still doesn't make any sense.

Also I'm really starting to think the 'the Earth becomes a paradise for the machines' ending from the tutorial really is going to be the happiest one possible, now that we know the machines are adorable and like parties and building villages.

Let's...lets not talk about the orgies.

Oh yeah, I think you mentioned that idea back when you streamed Limbo (I think that's what it was anyway). You didn't have a copy of the "game" and asked us to contact, and I quote, "our shadiest associates" to find one. Glad that's been taken care of!

He is perpetually trapped... in a never-ending spiral of loving and poo poo. Is this a curse? Or some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed Id with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if he’ll ever have the chance to kill him.

As much as I love seeing Nier and its associated games being LP'd, the way you LP'd crappy games and added your own beautiful touches and custom dialogue in the past was magical. Vincent making an extended Sonic the Hedgehog metaphor about making GBS threads himself still makes me giggle like a child.

Part of me is still struggling to process the fact that this game even exists, even after playing through it myself. I played Drakengard when it first came out, I've been watching this craziness play out from the very beginning. What a loving surreal industry success story.

I remember my dad telling me when I was younger "Sometimes it's not what you know, it's who you know."

Yoko Taro is a living, breathing example of the latter. Dude's got friends in surprisingly high places.
