Probably because it's a lot easier to get it working with a computer.

a ps4 controller works natively with mac os x so i can play lovely ports w a gamepad easily

I hope the Switch Pro Controller works on PC. My Wii U Pro's Y button and sticks are failing me after so much use and abuse.

Nobody knows yet but it seems like it's gonna be a self contained story it looks like

Something from Nier that was a big big spoiler that I think might figure into this story from what I can tell

You find out near the end that the "shadows" you kill which you thought are demons are the souls of humanity. Every person alive today is basically the left over bodies of humanity without a soul, the Shadow Lord is trying to return humanity to their bodies and you've been working against that the entire game. He kidnaps your daughter because she was his daughter, and puts her soul back into her. Eventually you kill him and doom humanity to get your fake body daughter back

On New Game + you can hear the shadows speak to you and they're begging you to stop killing their children and friends it's pretty brutal


The reason I think it's gonna come back is during the demo the machines start playing random PA messages and someone says "they're just machines nothing they do has any reason to it" and it reminded me a lot of that twist. Also the demo boss slowly starts to talk as you fight it

i didnt end up getting hit until square enix showed up and everything suddenly got way harder and on one hand i'm glad they essentially start forcing you to die and see what happens but it also led to a very long stretch of monotonous easy shooting in between coming to grips with whats going and that

When I died there it restarted right back there ????

I just got to route c and the difficulty spike is huge. I have no clue how chips work so I let the game optimize that for me. I'm considering switching to easy mode

properly speccing your chips to your play style is how you make the game easy. Equip some thjngs that heal on attacks and kills and it's basically godmode

there was a QA with yoko taro and he's just the best

http://kotaku.com/life-is-unfair-a-q-a-with-nier-automatas-director-1795653562

Alexandra: I wanted to ask about the characters in your games: do you have any that you identify with or feel strongly about? I know that I, like many, feel very protective of Emil. I want him to be happy.

Yoko: I want to treat all of the characters I create equally. Even if they are an antagonist, I did not want them to exist just to be defeated, and wanted them to have their own reason to live. That is why I especially put in an effort to express the characters as ones users may have a difficult time empathizing with.

However, I am happy that you empathize with Emil. I do want Emil to be happy too… but due to my job, there is a possibility that I will choose to sacrifice him. This is because what’s important to me is not to make Emil happy, but to create a game that will have meaning to everyone who plays.
