Opening scene is the most frustrating part of the game. They don't really explain how critical dodge mechanics are, and once you get the timing down it's not too difficult.

Get through that and you'll be hooked.

NieR:Automata stands out as a beautiful action game with memorable cutscenes and some of the best music in videogames. The opening is the roughest stretch, with dodge timing not explained well and death sending progress back hard, but the combat clicks once the patterns are learned. Switch 2 handheld play works well in boost mode and the game is reportedly optimized there, though controller play on a bigger screen is favored for the best first run. A strong pick for players willing to push through the intro.

I'm playing on switch 2 w/ boost mode enabled for handheld, I'm sure ps5 is likely to edge out graphically but I don't have an issue with it.

Definitely is and it has been optimized for Switch 2 if you own one!

I bought it on Switch 2 instead of my PS5. Backlog heavy and probably won't get to a lot of games until I retire. Lol!

I died on the first boss and it put me back at the beginning of the game. I haven't went back since but I should try it again with boost mode.

You would want to experience this masterpiece sitting down comfortably, personally for me controller and not a handheld.

PS5 easily. The game is beautiful and has great cutscenes. Also the music is some of the best in the past 20 years of videogames and Im not exaggerating. I would want the best experience possible for this if I was playing for the first time again.
