post near puns in this thread; NIER AUTOMATA

I’ve got shitty luck cause Hegel broke yesterday and I had to redo the boss and then in Sorting Trouble 3 side quest the target wouldn’t talk to me unless every last enemy in the area was killed.

That’s a common bug in Sorting Trouble 3. I think it has to do with enemies spawning on the streets instead of the roofs.

Yeah and they track you instantly so I had to go take care of them. Some spawned in the maze too which was infuriating because they remove your ability to do anything but push boxes when you enter it.

When this game bugs out it can be pretty bad.

Or hilarious.

Why couldn’t I get those glitches instead.

Still on Route C. Playing as 9S after Hegel and doing any and all sidequests I find since I find sidequests way easier as him.

Most if not all weapons are at lv3 or higher and I’ve got to go back to the flooded city to grab that one chest I missed due to a difficult jump to make.

Not a glitch, but a set of conditions kind of ruined a very touching and dramatic moment for my game. (Late Loop C spoilers)

Yeah, I had to look up how to make that jump. I didn’t even know you could combo that many moves to extend your air time.

I think with Mirage and the pod kick I should be able to make it fine. I’m just assuming it’s holding a weapon.
I actually kinda like how it’s given me the tools/chips to find items around the place.

Oh also noticed that the material vendors update their stock throughout the game. Considering how much money the game keeps throwing at me you might not need to ever grind out materials.

Also does defender of the earth Emil buy stuff off you at an increased price. I swear some stuff I sold him gave me more money then usual.

How I did it was dash off ground > Jump > Jump and hold to glide > pod kick > 3 light melee attacks. Make sure to go there with 9S because you have to hack it open.

I think so.

I think that chest is the last thing I can do before I head to the story quest so i’ll just keep trying it til I get it tonight.

Mechanics chat: Anybody else feel the lose all chips on death really pointless? It doesn’t really add anything to the game and just wastes time on a retry to grab your previous chips.

Well that’s Ending C done and i’ve unlocked chapter select.

I’ve got like a couple of side quests i’ve missed early on that i’ll go do but I think I got most of the chests in the game.

Welp that’s Nier Automata…

Guess I wont be doing 100% in that file.

Thank you for reinforcing the game’s message and themes with your heroic sacrifice!

I was too much of a wimp to do it. Too hard.

[spoiler]I accepted help and that meant somebody dropped all their data so I figured I’d do the same.

It’s a real nice change from the first game. It was cool asking you not to just sacrifice data for the final ending or for a in-game character but to help another player around the world reach the end.

That said I give it maybe a day before I go back and try start a 100% run. [/spoiler]

Un-spoilering it cause this is a bad quest but there is a very late quest that requires you to have 95% unit data to complete it and it sucks hunting some of the rarer enemies, some of which only have a chance to appear in certain places.

[Spoiler]As far I know, it’s actually not possible to do without accepting help, and you can accept help more than once, hence reinforcing the theme of relying on and connecting with others in order to get through things you can’t possibly do alone.[/Spoiler]

Actually, it’s possible.

Yeah I figured it’s possible, just really, really damn hard. I wasn’t far off from the end before I just had huge issues with it.

Wow, mad props to anyone who can manage that alone! I legitimately didn’t think it’d be possible, but I also kinda suck at the shooting/hacking segments. Made 9S pretty, uh… interesting to play.

9S was how I did all of the side-quests. Hacking is crazy broken.

Talking about this game in work and i’m trying

not to drop that my save file is gone, but at least point out how neat all the unlocks are.

Oh no, i did that lol(after so many retries it flat out told me to just take the help). I meant sacrificing my save data to help others. I’m too stubborn.
