Man, its a special kind of hell for people to choose "wipe these nigh-immortal twins' memories of all but the guilt by association" d just... doing anything else, really. Leave them alone, mercy kill them. Anything is better than thousands of years of being treated like poo poo.

The Hamelin Organization was basically Umbrella Incorporated tasked with handling the salt monster Legion apocalypse in the original NieR’s backstory. They did this by doing a bunch a dumb poo poo with magic they didn’t really understand like making super-powered child soldiers or sticking people’s souls in magic books, turning people into giant grinning cartoon skeletons or giving petrification vision to kids and whatnot. They likely also made the original androids to oversee the Plan Z of throwing magic poo poo at the wall and hoping for the best that was Project Gestalt.

Also OG NieR had that predilection to name their bosses after fairy tales, so I guess it makes sense that not-Umbrella would be named after the (Pied Piper of) Hamelin, especially since they probably also made Devola and Popola and them leading you on through the story.

You can attack them all you like.

It solves nothing.

I thought he meant if you can just not attack and let the battle progress to the "don't attack" phase, or if you need to kill some to trigger it.

So last update people were wondering what 2B's alternate costume was going to be. Obviously we've run out of main characters, except for 1. Now we know what the B stands for. Or E standing for encyclopedia

XS1 was playable, I was able to just suck up the various types of tedium and get through it.

XS2 was a horrible slog, the sluggish battles were a pain. Then the obligatory self destruct escape sequence happened and I think I got maybe through 2 screens and 2/3 of the time was already gone from the horrible battles. Dropped it and never picked it up. Unfortunately that killed my interest in 3 so I never played it.

i recommend that people who haven't played this game try to guess what the next bit is

Either the game installs a save file for Nier if the player has no trophies from it or a download from PSN that will delete if the player decides to buy it.

Or a week of real time defragging the PS4's hard drive.

Or the real game begins and its a heavy metal themed RTS?

After Drakengard! 3! pulled the "no, no he wouldn't do the same thing twice" I honestly am not surprised. But drat.

Honestly there's another thing that Death did that I wouldn't put past Yoko Taro. It is fortold that the horsemen of the apocalypse must ride for the end of the world. Drakengard! 4! ends in the biggest Notspain's cataclysm yet. Zero and Caim (and some other dragon riders of note) appear when the giant cannibal space babies are closing in. They begin to literally cry that its against the rules, the end times are here and they are not to interfere since their calling is to ride out.

THE PROPHECIES SAY NOTHING ABOUT WHO WE RIDE AGAINST

And so the giant cannibal space babies are destroyed forever. Then Zero and Caim kick the player's asses, because the prophecies said who they rode against, they ride against everyone. The end.
