Elden Ring

Releases two days after Twosday. Coincidence? (Yes)

If Skyrim had released 11 days after 11/11/11 it would also have been a nice looking date honestly.

I didn't play the original, I just remember hearing that it had clunky combat

Replicant's combat is serviceable, the real issue is that the backend of the game becomes very focused on it with far fewer diversions so it can get tiring

i doubt its a direct 1:1 adaptation. maybe ill have egg on my face but it doesnt seem like this franchise's style.

Yeah, NierA has way too much lore in everything else to settle for something like that. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if that's not even 2B in the key art.

Automata's combat is fine, but if you even touch sidequests, everything in the main scenario is as threatening as wet kleenex.

Larryb posted:

How would you even possibly adapt Automata’s final ending in anime form?

The same way they concluded the final Rebuild of Evangelion movie.

True, attempting to adapt the game directly would probably be a disaster (even if you kept it solely focused on the Ending A route) so I’m hoping it’ll be some kind of side story or something along those lines

Automata’s combat feels good but it doesn’t have a lot of depth, which is a shame coming from the developers of Bayonetta and The Wonderful 101

Considering how the stage plays and books would tell alternate endings, and how even none of Drakengard 3's endings are the timeline route that would lead into Drakengard 1 (I believe it was eventually told in book form), it wouldn't be that surprising if the anime just told its own story.

To be clear, I wasn't trying to imply that I was horny at cartoon/video game rear end (which I'm not). I'm laughing at the idea of using that as a standard for judging animation quality of the anime, since that particular part of the character's anatomy was so painstakingly crafted in the game.

I am laughing AT the horny, not WITH the horny.

Anything Yoko Taro is involved with will be insanely creative, but not necessarily good.

The story telling for the Nier games is pretty big on the whole replaying the game to see the progression of "endings" which are actually just further continuations of the story.

Not sure how they plan to do that for the anime unless its going to being "Ending A" then the follow episode shifts to a different character focus for the next ending and so on.

Nier Automata was a shock massive success and ripe for IP expansion, but regarding the whole 2butt thing 2B isn't really the focus of the game, like 3/4ths of it are 9S and A2

The Steins Gate anime had the credits get interrupted for one of the episodes then it went to the true ending after that.
