I bought this game a few years ago on a recommendation. It is weird, all over the place, and confusing. Saying that, I enjoyed it and got the Platinum trophy. I do recommend it thoroughly as it kept my attention for a long time.

30+ hour game if a completionist and pretty much lowest price for digital to date. I played about 10 hours and something else came up and haven't been back to so time to revisit.

Also, NieR: Automata 3C3C1D119440927 [playstation.com], the DLC pack if you already have the base game is on sale as well for $4.99.

I have the non game of the year version and the dlc what is the difference? Are the two versions patched to the same level or is there an actual difference?

The anime of this game is currently airing but the game is still better and well worth playing through. It's one of the best games of the PS4 era.

I have it and I don't understand the gushing love this game gets on the internet. It is so kooky and odd, but it just felt like a grind to me. I think I'm halfway in and just got tired of it. Yeah yeah sexy android lady and all but still.

GFR loved it too. I enjoyed this video of them playing it more than I enjoyed playing it.

I bought this game and enjoyed the gameplay generally, but found it a little simple and repetitive. I didn't really understand most of the story or the characters. The music is 10/10 all the way through.

That said, after finishing it, I watched this video [youtube.com] and it opened my eyes to the beauty of the story and characters, and what the game was telling me. I think it is required watching, but only after you've finished the game.

Does running this on PS5 improve it in any noteworthy way?

The game play part is just like all platinum games (e.g. Bayonetta), it was a giant upgrade from the first nier game (which very few played), but honestly wasn't that outstanding even at the release. The game philosophy, however, is on a different level altogether.

I'm the same. I love a good hack and slash style of game, but didn't find much enjoyment in this one. Very repetitive and confusing at times.

I also don't understand the gushing praise this game gets. I found it way too simple and downright boring. Battle system lacked complexity. Wanted to like it but there are much better games in the genre imo

I felt this way until I got to the first "ending" which was underwhelming. The 2nd and especially the third chapters/playthroughs are what ultimately got me.
