NieR: Automata Thread

I can't be the only person that imported this, right? Anyone else playing it right now?

There's a trophy for looking up 2B's skirt 10 times.

Does the game actually offer anything unique as an action game or is it just Nier the action game?

...

It's NieR, but with Platinum games combat.

...

No one find that hot, and no one finds it gross enough to really care, why do you bother posting it? Are you that (you) starved?

Dobson leave.

Well shit, I know I will enjoy it I enjoyed Transformers Devastation a bunch, but now I'm just like whatever, is a large portion of the hype and the high traffic in these threads mainly because of the main character?

How is the combat? Is it standard light attack, heavy attack, mix them for combos? How many combos? How is the dodge/parry mechanic? Are there any modifier items like the charms in bayonetta? Any cool costumes for 2B or 9S?

I'm just going to repost my comment from the other thread to get some actual discussion going.

I've been watching streams of this game lately, and one of the things that looks absolute shit is the checkpoints. Dark Souls-tier run backs, for what purpose? Those don't belong in a game like this. Even worse, is losing your chips when dying, and losing them permanently if you fail to recover your body. Once again, taking a page from Dark Souls, but in this game you're completely vulnerable to attacks while you're picking up your "bloodstain", which is disgustingly unfair.
Also, colliding with dead bodies and the environment affecting your movement (like 2B tripping over stuff).

But the cherry on top of the shit cake has to be the black and white screen and muted audio when in low health. That has to be the single, most retarded mechanic that is commonly implemented. How could developers not know that shit is annoying as fuck and unnecessarily makes things more difficult for the player?

I've seen plenty questionable design choices in this game, but the thing is, I wonder how much of that stuff is alleviated with lowering difficulty and installing chips. This game looks like it would have strange quirks like that.

Just download the demo?

I'm a mustard.

I just like cumflation and straight shotacon.

Is the game level based?

Maybe it will be fine, Don't know really get the hype in that case.

Git gud

Oh wait, so the game is a proper sequel to Nier? which I haven't played because it looked shit but it's a semi open world game with action elements?

nigger are you for real?

It's Yoko Taro.

m8.

What are you talking about? It's deliberately annoying.

It's purpose is to annoy you. How does irony factor in?

to be fair, Taro is the man that made getting a game's ending delete your save data

What so the game is being deliberately annoying and yoko taro excuses it? Or are you implying that yoko taro is just bad at making video games?


But that's a fun level of fuckery, and it's at the end of the game so you might as well restart anyway.

...

THE MC SLUT DIES AT THE END

I dont think you understand.

IT'S YOKO TARO

Yeah, one is something that nags you and happens every time you get low health, and one is a crazy ending that happens once, and like I said you'd just restart to play the other endings anyway.

I think it'd be more of a spoiler if no one died in this game if you've ever played any of the previous ones.

I guess I don't understand, please explain to me.

Jesus fucking Christ, what part of he likes to fuck around with his audience you don't understand, seriously are you retarded, a faggot or a nigger?

...

Would a fucking health bar be too much to ask for?! All that resolution available, all those pixels on screen and they decide "Nah, it would break immershun." Fuck that shit with something sharp, pointy and spiky.

Fucking with and being annoying game design are not the same. I could fuck with you by having an enemy lower the framerate, it would be annoying to have an enemy stunlock and kill you. Small but meaningful difference.

There's a health bar, too.

...

Do they really think I'm only going to do it 10 times?

The real question that should be answered is can you make 2b a mother?

Oh cool, the combat seems a bit deeper than I expected. Individually each weapon is somewhat simple (though they all have some simple combos) but since you have 2 at any given time, you swap between them to make your own combos. For example, if you attack with your other weapon when you throw a weapon out into the air, that weapon that was thrown can continue being combo'd with. Then you've got different weapon types, your pod, dodging and dodge attacks, etc. It's very nice.

Fuck off, you are the reason these threads become shit. Some of us are talking about the actual GAME part of the GAME.

Hey buddy we can do both.

What kind of attacks can the pod get? Is it similar in variety to the Weiss?

How much does the pod do anyway? Is it just for piling a little more damage or will it kill enemies by itself, or does the damage change when it shifts into bullet hell or top down segments like in the trailers?

You don't need to excuse anything. This is a way for gameplay to mirror the experience of the character you are controlling.

While Yoko Taro may not be above doing something annoying just to spite the player, I don't think that's the case here.

He's sacrificing some level of player enjoyment to let the gameplay tell the story he wants to tell. This is a design choice and I'm not even making a value judgement on it. Whether that's good or bad is largely subjective. But to imply that he did it because he thought players would like it or think it's cool seems to misunderstand him as a creator.

...

I'm not too far in, but the pod seems similar to Weiss.

Speaking of which, I need to find out how I enable that skin…

I will say that the OST seems to be just as good if not better than the first NieR so far.

Nigger the punishment for getting hit is death or a lower score, not handicapping the player further.

/ss/ is god tier, stop dragging it through shit tier fetishes like inflation

How does the complexity and difficulty rank with other platinum games?

If you dont like it, play something else

Here you go dumbass, turn up your big boy speakers like you're in a theater and watch it.

Not an argument, and I will play it because everything else looks good.

If you say so

I will say I'm not a fan of the grey screen but the idea of handicapping the player further if they get hit isn't a bad one. It just further strives the player to improve that a simple loss of health couldn't do, like getting staggered or having armour break for lower defense.

Automata is going to be the first game to break the trend and that's going to be the death knell. Next game onward Yoko Taro's going to have committees of MBA parasites breathing down his neck. "Why let the player die at all? It just causes bad feelings. COD4 and Borderlands had Last Stand and they sold gangbusters. Do that instead."

That's a shit comparison, the noise there makes the movie intense and exciting, but if it persisted for great lengths throughout the movie people would shit on 2001.

Let's wait and see automata's review scores first shall we?

What you want and what the creator want in this case are just two different things.

If you don't like the screen effects you can always just pull out your OS chip when you get low on health.

There's no need to wait, you're all the indication I need. The previous games were hostile enough to drive off people who would be bothered by a gray filter. Automata's too welcoming. It's going to sell three million copies to soft cunts like you and SE is going to break Yoko Taro's heart.

I haven't played it yet, I just saw the other user mention it and agreed it seems dumb. Maybe you shouldn't be such a reactionary "muh sekrit club" faggot?

I'd be less of one if I wasn't always right.

Well, you've yet to be right. I mean taro has had like 5 games go on fairly unmolested, I don't think he'll bend over after automata even if it does bring in the casuals and suits.

But 2001 is fucking terrible "2deep4u" garbage that only drug addled hippies liked. Possibly the only movie stupider, more pretentious, and more outright wrong than Prometheus.

Jokes on you I suck at vidya so my waifu will live forever!

Then what the everlasting fuck is the point?

i do.

you're wrong nigger. and also you're dead and your stand was shit.

What chan were you on? It was always welcomed whenever the thread popped up. More than any other types of thread. Only now some shitposters will appear thanks to the refugee crisis.

hahaha silly user. EVERYONE dies at the end of EVERY yoko taro game.

if you want a happy ending, go play nintendo games.

Don't fucking delude yourself.

...

Any news on censorship yet?

Other than the name of a trash item being changed because it hurt some nintendrone's feelings, no, but it is being translated by 8-4 so likelyhood is pretty high.

Found the nigger.

STOP

It doesn't matter what was said after your statement, you fucking faggot. You brush off the first post talking about gameplay. It's clear that gameplay is not the focus of this thread in your mind, despite this being a video game board.

pleb-tier anti-arma console faggot confirmed.

Also never played a Silent Hill either, apparently.

...

The earth should be completely wild at that point.

With some plastic cups 20 meters under ground.

I imported as well, have several questions
- What is best camera configuration for prime butthole-gazing
- How do you beat the quest for the supply merchant?
I killed all the enemies in the area and items didn't drop.

Maybe it's because whatever magic killed the world had some sort of preserving effect?

I think the Amusement Park area is my new favorite area in a video game.

This is some good vidya.

So does it have any connection to the other games?

Yes, very much so.

Ok. But does it reference the first and only good drakengard game?

I want to have anal sex with 2B so bad

I don't care about the game, all I care about is r34 and our ((([[[{{{media}}}]]]))) spazzing over how problematic and toxic it is. Any news on that front?

Have you ever had anal sex?
Most sex it turns out actually isn't as great as hentai makes it out to be. Anal sex is pretty annoying to set up. In fact having a big dick makes it harder (same with oral) to do.

If you want trite drama and news, Reddit, 4chan, and google are only a few clicks away so fuck off.

Good news for people of Holla Forums.

Nah, making fun of progressives in vidya by now is an integral part of Holla Forums so I think I'll stay while you descend further and further on the spectrum.

...

What the fuck user, just call them jews.

Not if you know what the fuck lube and forward momentum are.

You won't get anything like that until it's out in the west and all the steam furfags and tumblrcucks get ahold of it.

there's going to be a 'machines dindu nuffin twist at the end isn't it. noticing far too many are non-hostile

sauce, need to add it to hydrus

god fucking bless your soul user

But they're not even that, they're less than that.
I can wait.

I don't think that's possible user.
Good, talk about vidyas in the meantime. Did you import?

Someone is posting all the boss fights on jewtube. I have already seen the opera singer one, and I don't know if I can handle not seeing the rest.
Any news on the steam release date?
Also did anyone else get that porn collection that Taro himself apparently requested?

Please don't get a running start for anal sex, user

...

Stop ass-salting me user.

re-encoded, not shitty version

only differense is 1080p vs 720p and a higher bitrate (because its 1080p)

something something hivemind
also that pun was ass user

now if you can make her do this dance with yoko-taro as Gabriel Byrne

Why do people make dance webms that are not synced up with the music?

that's some weapons' grade level autism you got there user

What I want to know is every single autistic detail regarding which version to buy, US or JP.

I would buy JP and then pirate the western version just to see what it's like and have a digital copy.
Don't buy twice because of what says. I suspect that the journos will fucking hate this game and not get any of the jokes though.
I only have the JP but it's very good, kind-of feels like MGR without the parry and blade mechanics.
What kind of autistic details are you looking for?

Any stench of Marxist meddling in the localization?

If the subtitles are going to be what the localization is then no, not at all.

English voices only
2B voiced by she-Burch.

I must admit, I am kind of amazed that 8-4 didn't fuck up despite ostensibly being given free reign by the creator to do whatever.


There's no dual language option?

Top kek knew there was something off about the english VAs and switched to nipponese immediately.

Fairly early on an imported copy but I haven't seen any memes, SJWshit, or anything else that raised red flags
I don't know if it's an inaccurate translation though because I don't know Japanese, there could be minor things like 2B using some japanese formalities in the audio that don't translate well.

I was merely funpoasting.

I still didn't like the english VAs very much. Nothing horrible they're just kind of off

...

Here, yYou asked for it so don't bitch about it now. These guys cover practically everything that's important aside Toobie's thiccness

Already found a discrepancy - in JP version the little robot says "no, this is a weapon defending it" when toobie askes if it's the target

yes, translation will be horrible, as always

Is the game coming out on PC at the same time as PS4 or not? It's shit but I will play it because it's not absolutely shit.

I think PC is march 7th but it might "leak" on the sixth because Japan and timezones.

Fuck off

What's having crippling autism like?

DENUVO

...

when you grab her by the pussy she makes honk honk noises?

There were news articles couple of days ago about SE asking for an even stronger drm for the game than denuvo

she isn't chen

That's absolutely terrible, Chinese will fix it though.

I'm not entirely sure, but I figured I should say that to avoid getting mostly unhelpful replies.
The only things I've heard is that the Japanese copy includes English, but I have also heard that, for some reason, the English release shouldn't be bought because of the translator's recent reputation. The only things that I am certain of are that it is cheaper for me to buy the English version and it would be slightly easier to get any DLC with it too. I really should wait until the English release to see how everything pans out, but I am also impatient and really want those skins for my box-bro.

Can't win with you people. Yandev was right.

then you know where >>>/reddit/ is

sauce of the song?

OY VEY

YANDEV IS A CUCKOLD

I remember when I saw Kaine die in Nier's intro. Thought the cutscene people messed up and that it's quite the big spoiler.

user you just need to take everything on this shitty website with a grain of salt. You're going to have run-ins with the fully retarded people that are set on one stance that use loops and greentext/smug images to refute actual claims. Don't believe the shitty memes and think for yourself.
Sure Denuvo is shit, but I'm not going to let that stop me from buying a game that I think I would enjoy or support. There are ways to get around it if you're that fucking anal about it- and not even illegal ones at that.
Just fucking don't take anything on Holla Forums or 4chan at all serious because fags all over the place post shit and it's the only thing they do on their time.
Also Yandev wasn't in the right, he was an unfortunate sellout that is just too reliant on his game.

I don't think it shouldn't be bought, I think it shouldn't be bought twice
There are going to be minor discrepancies between the english voice and jpn subbed - look at both and see which you like then get whichever version appeals to you most.
I knew I'd like the JP better because I'm a gigantic hopeless weeb and just like the sound of moonspeak more - especially since it's just a menu away from being full-english.

The Jap version will be dubtitles like all games are. You're still paying for 8-4 quality.

>WOW BUGGED TAIWANEESE COTTON TANKA BOARD MECHANICS

and take this one with you too

What gives?

anyone?

you retarded nigger half those posts aren't even in this fucking thread.
You're getting called a redditor in multiple threads and you didn't even get that reddit-like wording was really
REDDIT SPACING
Because >I'm an idiot. please laugh at me is filtered. Jesus fuck dude go back to reddit.

I dunno the remix, but it's a remix of nujabes' shiki no uta

hallelujah

wat

...

We are under a massive attack by coordinated shitposters right now, possibly financed. Best try hiding it next time.

And now you're just going to post Holla Forums webbums and try and reddit space some more because you're a huge faggot who can't take a fucking hint.

Call me when there's proper porn of 2B.

Fuck 8-4.

...

We know, she dies in the fucking trailer

You can remove the health bar if you want. You can add and remove all the UI elements as you like.

...

All of that sounds fine to me. Tripping over stuff? Awesome. Eagerly awaiting the PC version.

The health thing sounds like Yoko Taro making his dreams come true, if you ever see any streamer get to the final boss see if it intentionally causes the frames to drop because that's what he wanted to do at some point.

Funny how you think you could win in the first place, but hey, someone is winning alright.

It's not easy as slipping it in a vagoo but don't make it sound like it's impossible
What the fuck are you talking about? The girl's gotta stretch out her hole sure but if she's literally never played with her butt before of course it's going to be tight, she needs to be able to relax and she can take bigger dicks in her ass than her vagina. Oral is accurate though.

Can anyone confirm to me that the PSN JP cards from PlayAsia work? I'm very skeptic about these things.
I can no longer hold my needs.

They work fine, that's what I use for JPN PSN codes.

...

I'll take "What is every movie directed by Lars von Trier, ever?" for 200,-$, Alex.

Eat shit, it will be cracked just like every game ever.

I'm hoping 2B dies at the end and then you play as the lil boi who goes crazy at her death and unleashes a ridiculous about of power.

I was hoping she'd die at the start and the game is actually about A2.

Don't forget to tweet 2B lewds to moonman.

Commieforian, pls go.

git gud

just hold on for the pc version fam

...

wow end your bloodline

Hopefully whatever DRM SE shits on the game won't prevent people from accessing the text files so the community can unfuck whatever 8-4 did to the game.

...

I have faith in their incompetence.

Lol

i wish 2b had a huge futa cock

Someone will mod it in with floppy cock physics.

Reminder that the concept of and desire for anal sex is the result of infection by a parasite which artificially changes your sexual preferences to mental illness and physical self-destruction for the purpose of its procreation.

Reminder that jews have been pushing this in media for decades now for the sole purpose of causing goyim to become disease-riddled slaves who need colostomy bags for the rest of their lives.

dragons dogma and dark souls have been on PC for a long time now and no one has made any mods that go beyond retextures. i doubt this will be any different.

No, a Jew is never right.

Then why don't you mode it in yourself then?

I'm bothered by how long it's taking JC3 to be cracked, though.

It's postmodernist bullshit. Don't get me wrong, postmodern design philosophy has led to some good design decisions and interesting implementation of game mechanics (mostly to do with questioning conventional design approaches and self aware in-game elements or pieces that are "meta" in some way, shape or form), but in this case it's outright hostile to the player and damages enjoyment. It sounds like a bad move to me, especially if combat is sufficiently deadly.


2/10 cum on son you can do better than just fling buzzwords.

No.

That looks pretty crazy, wonder if it's even doable on very hard.

probably because its not possible. after all those games aren't skyrim

Surely if you could change the model enough to make nude mods you could change it enough to make whatever else you want? Excluding the physics, but considering 2B's dress has it I don't think it would be too difficult.

Wrong. Humanity is on the moon, and they didn't even go there 10000 years ago. I know around 5500 aliens, robots, and humans were peacefully coexisting on Earth. It of course, doesn't last forever.

Any confirmation on the alleged asshole spokes?


Greek pedarists

LE PARASITE MEME XDDDD

This is you.

pic is fake, there aren't even that many wii u games in existence

Looked up the boss fight video and watched what the actual opera robot boss looked like, game looks fun and I want it.

sure it is

I think you're overstating the case. It makes logical sense that as the unit is damaged it's ability to function also degrades. I don't really see how that's postmodernist.

You're also not likely to spend much time at low health unless you've completely run out of healing items.

Reported for being faggots.

Is this what a gamergater truly looks like? It's more hideous than a naked jew.

that's because jews are a beautiful and attractive people

Your console is shit

All of them?

I didn't think Okabe could top his work in Nier after his okay-ish performance in Drakengard 3, but Automata sounds fucking excellent

Nope, just the PS4

user, I'm not saying I believe in the paradise meme, but come on. That's not an argument. You didn't even bother to try to come up with one, you just instinctively spouted a buzzword like a mouth breathing retard.

game looks like garbage, and has damage floaters plus a corner map like. classic shit-tier game hallmarks.

weebs

Nigger, Drakengard 3's soundtrack was pretty damn good.

WHERE ARE THE SPOKES?


Can and should be turned off to make room for more useful plugin chips
What?

This games looks fun, what other games should I play to prepare for it? Is there anyway to play the others without a ps3?

I SAID THE MAP IN THE CORNER IS A CLASSIC SHIT-TIER GAME HALLMARK

Watch Best Friends LP of Nier and Drakengard 3 movie on jewtube if you ain't gonna play them.

Holy shit, calm your autism. Reread your post, you made a typo.

Also, I'm pretty sure the corner map is optional as well, but I'd to double check.

The entire point of postmodernism is awareness of a medium's traditions. Postmodern art isn't about creating a beautiful piece, it's about the act of painting itself. Postmodern literature isn't about telling a story, it's about the flow of words and exploring how a story is told. Following this postmodern elements in video games aren't about gameplay, they are about interaction between player and game. Introducing an effect (flashing health bar, beeping noise, bloody screen) when the player character has entered a perilous state is a time-honored tradition. Actually inflicting an effect on the player's ability to discern what is happening is an evolution of this that plays with the nature of the medium itself.

I do agree that how detrimental this is depends on the game's difficulty.

yeah good luck with that

I rather not, I have a PC and my little brother has a ps4 is there no way to play the other games?

nice opinion

I believe Nier was also for the 360.

Listen up faggot you're about to get a lesson:

It's not art if it's ugly and lacks aesthetics.

No good 360 or PS3 emus yet, so check if they are available and compatible for ps4. Though be warned, getting the whole picture with all endings can get grindy and the gameplay isn't exactly solid.

You're argument about art conveniently drops the "postmodern" part and thus has no bearing on what the fuck was saying. That said


This isn't some postmodernist bullshit you far reaching retard.

Wrong.

The correct answer was, "Yes, all of them."

Fuck, it comes out march so I'll just wait. Is there any games of the same genre I can play? I already beat DMC 3 and 4 and Transformers Devastation

Should I import from Japan? Will it have English subtitles?

Any noticeable censoring?

This is some fucking delusion.

MGR?

Fucking duh, that's why almost all postmodern art is shit. Postmodernism in the fine arts evolved into performance art, which is 100% ego. Shit's retarded and isn't worth preserving of even discussing (in fact, the mere act of preserving performance art or a piece by Pollock is antithetical to the message, since it's entirely about the act itself instead of the thing. But to argue for that would to be giving it an ounce of credibility so who the fuck cares).

Meanwhile it works in literature (Catch-22, House of Leaves, A Scanner Darkly) because the meaning is in how the story is told. The reader can still be effected by it without having to be there at the time of creation.

How shit is the localization?

Just need to know how much asshurt there is over the protagonist.

Reported for being a faggot, then.

We know how rabies works. An infected animal becomes more aggressive prior to death. It will end up biting other animals to spread the infection along. This is an example of a behavior-modifying organism. What you probably don’t know is that there are hundreds of other organisms that also affect behavior. A virus causes caterpillars to climb up trees. Then it liquifies their organs so the body disintegrates and the virus can be spread by the wind. (1) There is a STD for grasshoppers that makes them more sexually active. (2) In the days prior to experiencing the symptoms of the flu, the virus will make you more sociable so can transmit it more. (3) Here’s the real kicker though: There is a parasite that has the ability to modify sexual preference. Toxoplasma gondii. You’ve probably heard of T. gondii as the amoeba that infects cats. There’s a lot more to it than that. Rats are a carrier of T. gondii. When infected, a rat will be attracted to cat urine, making it more likely to be eaten by a cat, the intended host. How does it work?
Toxoplasma alters the brain to make the rat sexually attracted to cat urine. (4)
Toxoplasma’s ability to make rats sexually attracted persists even after the rat is no longer infected. (5)
That’s right–a parasite has the ability to PERMANENTLY ALTER SEXUAL PREFERENCE in its host. Dig deeper into the facts behind T. gondii and we see:
1/3 of all humans are chronic carriers of toxoplasma. (6)
Males with toxoplasma are taller and have more attractive faces (Allowing you to have more sex and spread the virus further). (6)
Toxoplasmosis increases the concentration of dopamine in the brain of infected humans (You become more likely to do risky, thrill-seeking behavior). (6)
Toxoplasma immunoglobulins are found in 9% of newborns in the US. (10)
Toxoplasma transfers from pregnant woman to their baby. (8)
Toxoplasma infected women have male sons 72% of the time. (9)
If you haven’t pieced it together yet, I’ll fill you in. Toxoplasma infects the fetus of pregnant mothers, making the baby more likely to be male and permanently altering the baby’s brain to create sexual attraction to men. You’ve probably heard the false “genetic hypothesis” that claims that female siblings of gay men have more babies, meaning that faggotry must be an advantage. The “gay gene” has been disproven, but toxoplasma explains why the sisters are having more babies. The same toxoplasma that altered their brother’s brain altered their brain to increase their sexual attraction to men. Homosexual men are having more sex than their heterosexual counterparts, spreading toxoplasma further. Use HIV as a proxy for how effective homosexual behavior is at transmitting disease: homosexuals are 0.8% of the population but account for 60% of new HIV cases.
In response to homosexuality, homosexual disgust (a.k.a. “homophobia”, also known as “common sense” or “self-preservation”) has evolved as a means to avoid toxoplasma infection. The purpose of disgust is disease avoidance. (11) You are disgusted at the sight of feces because feces have a lot of bacteria. You didn’t need to learn to avoid feces; it’s just genetic. Similarly, homophobia was found to be genetic. (12) This means that homophobia evolved because it increases your darwinian fitness by helping you avoid toxoplasma.

Nier had really good localization for most parts. They slipped with Drakengard 3. We'll see in two weeks when the western version goes out.

There was a part that was in the demo where the JP VA said
and the EN subs and VA say
Also, JP Nintoddlers complained about a joke calling NIN64 trash and got it removed. The JP version of the game is dual audio, with subs in several languages.

Whoa, a real eye-opener. We should kill all cats.

He can only defeat them by getting rid of them or dying without spreading them


Fucking this
We already have viruses that can do it but People still refuse to use them

Which language sounds better?

Does the Jap VA's sound like every JAV pornstar?

The EN VA didn't sound overtly bad, but I'm not the best judge of these things. Just watch some the demo.

Die by a chainsaw, retard.

Do not reply to off topic retards.

Beat it and enjoyed it.

How would I go about importing the JAP version of this game? I've never felt the need to import before but I would prefer to have a physical copy and would rather the nip one. What are the go to sites for you guys?

Fine.


Physical is the only way to go. Never listen to pathetic shills impossibky trying to fellate digital.

Not shilling, but there's only one benefit I can see for buying digital. Doesn't it support the developers more than retail? (That is unless you're retarded and preorder.)

...

Well yes.. But I'm asking where to import it from. I've never bought japan version of anything.

play-asia?

I got my copy from Amazon.co.jp.

...

So the general feeling ime getting from people is that the translation, while not the most accurate, was serivacable and not full of cancer. Can anyone confirm or elaborate on this?

I'd have to disagree. Taro is a married moonman.

u gay.

It's a textbook localization, in that it seems to only change things to either make more sense in English (aka, the whole ma'am/san thing) or substitute a common Japanese expression that could be translated literally into the equivalent English expression. Personally, I think they did a fine job.

Taro is shy. He wears a mask. Let him have peace.

It's the Chinese version you have to get right? it seems on Play-Asia the regular Jap version doesn't have english.

I still don't understand how this came about. Not only was this 8-4, but 8-4 that were let off the leash to do whatever they wanted.

I'm confused about this too actually.

Thanks user. I would have liked if they kept the honorifics like atlus does but for the most part it sounds like nothing plot and story changing happened which is what really matters.

Nope, there's literally just one version of the game worldwide. It even defaulted to English for me.


Just don't complain about it, honestly. Just be glad it's fine.


I think the whole ma'am thing is a good substitute, actually. Shows the formality but it isn't out of place in English.

Were the games 8-4 fucked up more or less niche than Automata. I know everyone is saying Automata is super niche because muh moonman, but I easily convinced a lot of people I know to be interested in the game. The free demo on the NiohBorneBox also probably gave it a massive amount of good publicity with normalfags. I think 8-4 might be one of those localizers that only fucks with shit when they think they can get away with it. With all the good publicity Automata has gotten, and the fact that it's probably dual audio so people can find errors and censorship really easily, I think 8-4 might be playing it safe.

u take that mother fucker, is the most butfula man

yes and it's butful u gay and he don't try 2 hide with it like ur implying u gay

untills he is at pace /h/fag

how you ofind moon man, how fucking dare u, u little shit! firit meme nigga! in the name yoko taro moonman

The whole mam thing just comes off as obnoxious to me. I know it is actually accurate to what the jap version is doing but after years of consuming nippon propaganda and getting used to how the japs use honorofics i cant help but be annoyed by how 9s addresses toobe

I'm still not sure whether English is not your first language, or you're trying to sound retarded ironically.


You're just autistic user. So am I.

Shit user
I think you might actually be on to something.

Now I don't mean to banepost or anything but like, can someone actually explain why Taro wears that mask? I hear that he's shy but is that it or just some meme? Is he autistic or something?

I mean that in a good way, Taro's adorably goofy and pure

Does Drakengard 3 let me carpet bomb hordes of medieval foot-soldiers along with having ace combat with dragons like in the first game?

Pretty sure it's just for fun.

Ah, okay. Whatever it is, it's hilarious and incredibly endearing. Taro's a great man.

It's much more on rails. There are parts where you ride the dragon, but you cannot switch freely.

If what you are assuming is true then that really makes me wonder what 8-4's rationality is because as i understand things the more niche a game is the more its target audience is going to desire a faithful translation. Yet 8-4 fucks with them nonetheless.

Question is whether this has actually hurt them in the long run

Yeah, compere to the original NieR, it's looks meh and i feel a bit meh on how the game plays is with it's hack and slash and i like the design of characters in the original NieR more.

Get out.


English is' mui 22th lunmgist, im stmart like u egotiscalls smug redditor /h/fag man.
me retarded on both!!!!

I wanna play double's advocate here and say that perhaps it could be different people or something. Maybe I'm just too skeptical of everything but I find it increasingly hard to believe someone would intentionally trash a translation because of some agenda, and not just because they're fucking morons.

I think 8-4 has some absolute fucking morons on the team (Xenoblade Chronicles X) and some legitimately decent people (Automata from what I hear) so I'm super torn. I just don't know what to think.

me miis bi one
:^( i've cri evtim

Actually, here's a thought…

What other games have 8-4 done that had a day-and-date English translation? Maybe, since they were on a stricter schedule they decided to not fuck with the game as much?

okay it was funny the first post now it's just stupid
please shut up

no fuk u

Leftists would, in a heartbeat.

Just look at BioWare deliberately shitting on the biggest cRPG audience (white, male, heterosexual nerds) to pander to the tiny minority of faggots/trannies and fujoshi present in the West that can be arsed to buy a game.

I think the rationalization behind localization companies fucking with the source material is making it more palatable to a Western audience, and by their logic that audience consists of San Francisco hipsters.

Have 8-4 done anything besides Fatal Frame and Xenoblade Chronicles X?

user can you please not try so hard to make this a 'left vs right' shitfest

How about you go suck Jamal's cock your whiny cuck?

Sorry user, that's not an argument. Go back to /pol./

litllerly who

...

They're not pandering to faggots and trannies, they're pandering to virtue-signaling millennials.

How fucking stupid are you?

Dragon's Dogma

Does the first
even translate video games

on the right, does it even matter since you could just read the book somewhere else? I will admit I should have specified games but my point still remains that I, even with this presented, find it hard to believe someone is going to fuck with a game's translation just out of edgy spite.

I did mention San Francisco hipster, did I not?

And the point still stands, they're pandering to a tiny minority of people that are not going to buy their games anyway and deliberately pushing away the audience that would, and all because the politics of the development team.

how fucking stupid are you

My images weren't specifically about translation, yes, but my point still stands. Anyone will do anything to push an agenda, and SJWs have a habit worming their way into gatekeeper positions.

Perhaps it's just because I'm not a cynical turbonerd but I still just don't see it. I HIGHLY fucking doubt they'd fuck with panty shots or lines in a translation to 'push an agenda.' Gonna need some sources of that having been done in a game for that reason.

These people legitimately deserve a rope. Jesus Christ what a bunch of insufferable faggots.

(checked)
Then whats the point in posting it, if it has nothing to due with this game.
Show proof about the people that are translating this game as cancer or shut up.

You haven't been following cape comics in the past few years, have you?

Of course they would go out of their way to spite white, heterosexual men. That's their whole raison d'être when going for such positions.


It's indicative of a patter of behavior among leftists. You can see them behaving the same way with TV shows, movies, comics, literature, etc.

You can keep being a liberal cuck all you want, it doesn't change the reality of their behavior.

Does no one remember how that community manager for mighty n09 managed to fuck with the game's translation/characters?

It's not even that, show proof that anyone is translating games intentionally as cancer or shut up.

The first image isn't even from a fucking translator, it's just some whiny dipshit """""journalist""""

No. There are parts in some levels where you can call down a dragon carpet bomb, but no dragon riding during ground levels. The dragon levels are almost exclusively arena boss battles and arguably the highlight of the game, but there are a few rail shooter sections.


The original Nier. Also Final Fantasy Type Zero with the whole moogle xe/xer madness.

8-4 seem to be a bit like NISA: if they're left to their own devices, they fuck stuff up. But if they're monitored closely (ie NISA with GUST's games) they do an okay job.

Can't think of an explicit example of it being done in a game specifically off the top of my head, though it is done. But there was that one anime where the dub made fun of gamergate.

explicit enough*

Nigger, they've wormed their way into "journalism" some of them managed to get hired by game studios, what makes you think they wouldn't squeeze themselves into localization? It's the obvious next step.
Don't be stupid, bro.

Yeah but didn't the people behind that get in trouble? I could have sworn they did, because I haven't seen anything even remotely like that show up again.


You're kind of missing a big fucking factor here, dipshit. We're talking about localizations. We're not talking about western devs or writers, we're talking about people who translate shit. All you've cited are examples of things unrelated to the medium. If libtards are SOOOO prone to doing this shit, how come you haven't cited *one* solid example from a video game? Quite frankly you're just hurting your own argument. I'm inclined to believe you're just full of shit and wanna spew some dumb Holla Forums 'right vs left' bullshit.

Just like they wouldn't invent fake news to rabble rouse the populace against a president they don't like? Just like they wouldn't cover up crimes committed by minorities because it doesn't fit their agenda?

You think something like game translation would violate their ethical boundaries in light of that?


Yes, and people keep pointing out to you that said localization teams are staffed by leftists. Leftists have displayed a pattern of behavior consistent for every community they join. They want to ostracize and remove white, heterosexual men from the hobby and make it a point to make them feel unwelcome.

I fail to see what is so difficult to grasp about that.

Okay but every example thus far has been "B-B-BUT THEY DID THIS TO OTHER STUFF" as if they're super prone and well known for being retards.

If this were the case, why the fuck haven't there been as many legitimate examples for gaming? So far it's just been dumb autistic shit like anything from 503269 that's completely unrelated to the topic at hand.

If people are so fucking prone to this, why have none of the idiots saying these liberals do nothing but this brought no examples of it happening in gaming?

Don't be stupid, bro.

okay but what does this have to do with video game translations

i'm waiting on you to prove they do this to games lad

He's a leftist cuck that got triggered. It's obvious that leftists have a pathological need to become content gatekeepers everywhere.


You are fucking retarded.

No, you're fucking retarded. I asked for you to prove that translations are fucked with like you swear they can be, and all I hear is that they *can* be, but not that they are. Every time I ask for an example you spew off some irrelevant shit about liberals, comic books, or other shit that has nothing to do with video games. Go take your meds, you dumb sperg.

Who the fuck has? Also what the fuck does this have to do with translation in video games?


Again what the fuck does this have to do with this video game translation? I'll say it again

SHOW PROOF PROVING THE PEOPLE THAT ARE TRANSLATION THIS GAME AS CANCER OR SHUT UP

who the early Simpson was to spite white, heterosexual men!
>nothing good in neo liberal era comics like ms marvel or black ultimate spider man (which was ok) and or on under-related note, Genndy Tartakovsk's Cage!

rooling for trip

Yesss

i hate that i found this good ass pic on tublrber

(checked)
Exactly this. It's comparing apples to oranges. It's like saying that because some liberals work in journalism and are shit, that liberals who work in fruit sorting plants are gonna put Mao's red book in the boxes sometimes too.

Look up fire emblem fates' translation, it will prove it to you. Hell ask the gamergate thread, I'm sure they have overwhelming proof.

Oy vey.

What now Holla Forums?

So how does this prove that he's doing this to spite people?

Also, can you show me at any point where Arcana Heart 3, BBCS, and GG have had liberal-as-fuck translations? I don't remember anyone in any of those games sounding like SJWs, the worst I saw were dumb memes in BB like "feels bad man" or "full retard."

Can you make sure you've played the games listed before mouthing off about them?

Eat shit, Holla Forums

He'll say
>Yeah, you have evidence
>But it's not enough
>I want more
>And because I want more, your evidence proves nothing

He's doing it for ideological purpose, which is what everyone was telling you. Stop moving the goalpost you disgusting cockroach.


Spot on.

You stupid fucking apes, show me proof of NieR: Automata translation being fucked with or stop shitting up the thread.

Nice strawman.

That was never the point, they were discussing that they were surprised 8-4 didn't fuck it up, and then it got derailed to this.

Some examples of Fate's shitty localizations.

Honestly I don't get why you find it such an outlandish thought, but look into 8-4. Remember Mighty No. 9 and Dina the community manager? That's how they operate.

Like someone else said, maybe ask in the GG thread, those guys are bound to have some screenshots of that and much more if you want proof.

You mean you, right? In fact if we wanna talk about moving goalposts, let's talk about how I asked (and am still asking) for people intentionally fucking with translations to fuck with people, something you acknowledged was my point with the following posts (>>12014967, , and so on)


But that was the original argument. I said from the start that I found it hard to believe people spite-mistranslate. Furthermore, if you play some of the games listed there, you'll notice that's not the case at all. It's easy to go "he fucked with the translations for X, Y, and Z" without posting examples or proof.

I'd love to see how this is a spite translation.

Because he's from Holla Forums and desperate to shift blame.

Moved the goalpost so far I can't even see it anymore. Fuck off and stop shitting up the thread acting retarded on purpose.

Have never posted in leftypol in my life, mate. Just because I disagree that the world is a shithole like you're trying to paint it as doesn't mean I'm leftypol. Fuck off with this 'us vs them' shit. You sound like a fucking SJW.

So the translation isn't fucked then? Great, I'll pick it up. Later faggots.

Read please, my point THE ENTIRE TIME has been "I doubt anyone would fuck with a translation just to spite people" and it has still not been disproven. I'm not 'shitting up a thread' just because I disagree and some nerd spergs out because of it.

Let me point you to and this article: nichegamer.com/2015/07/03/the-story-behind-fire-emblem-fates-completely-falsified-gay-conversion/.

WHERE ARE THE SPOKES?


You do know spiting the people who like having their anime tiddies "super blatant sexism" is the agenda we're talking about, right? Of course you do, it's your agenda.

user, you posted it yourself that you "HIGHLY fucking doubt they'd fuck with panty shots or lines in a translation to 'push an agenda.'"
user gave you a tweet of a localize group member publicly showing his intention of "fixing blatant racism/sexism". He had an agenda, and he intentionally tried to fix shits to fit his agenda.
That's about as much proof as you need.

Hi Holla Forums.

oh, yes the la … and who can froget splayface
but user the shit would be the same, nomader wat, it the person was right it still be same but now the translation is just 12 year old trying to be edgy or trying too hard to be edgy or promenting gun lew or how you can't make fun of Christianity, and i bet they still will have anzing … but it ok, it right.
also nice changing subject becuz it toal 100% bezuz it not right and left and not just a shit translation in general.


this, also nice dub


this 2

Then it shouldn't be hard to provide a fucking example, right?


Is reading hard
You can focus on one specific line that came later but the context was, still is, and hasn't stopped being people doing it to start shit with people. Little weird how no examples have come up of that, just "w-well some people find things racist, so they mistranslate them" which yeah, that's fucking stupid, but it's not my point. There's a line between translating shit wrong intentionally because you're a retard, and translating shit wrong intentionally because you want to piss people off.

You must not come to localization threads much. It's like this every time. If you aren't 100% on board with the witch hunt, you're "them." A segment of Holla Forums cannot fathom that they aren't the center of the universe, so obviously these things are done to spite them personally.

user do you have the memory span of a goldfish or something? You doubted people would intentionally trash a translation because of some agenda, and there it is, some faggots fucking up translations because he had a agenda against "sexist/racist".

I knew some people were massive spergs about it on twitter like with Torrential Downpour and all that but I didn't know it was this bad even on Holla Forums. I would have expected the people so critical of SJWs and "IF YOU OPPOSE US YOU'RE RACIST" to be right-wing SJWs themselves.

No, what he posted was an image of someone *saying* that happens, which is vastly different from examples of it *being done.*

You can take any retard on twitter saying "man, localization lets you see some sexist shit" as proof of agenda pushing but you're gonna need to post caps from stuff they've worked on too to actually prove it.

Yeah, and Treehouse, NISA and 8-4 fuck with games for shit and giggles, no ulterior motive there.

And don't mention ESRB ratings, NISA got outed on that excuse a long time ago.


Don't worry, we can tell you're not from around here. The stench you give off is noticeable.

I don't go in a lot of localization threads on Holla Forums but Holla Forums is the only board I use. Used to use Holla Forums but stopped after a while because I stopped giving a shit about politics.

Sorry lad but the leftypol boogeyman just isn't going to work.

Were you actually born yesterday you stupid fucking faggot?

Except it wasn't. >>12014787
You're going to keep switching between "spite" and "pushing agenda", trying to wave away proof.

The fact that you ignore is somewhat telling.

I posted a translator outright stating he changes things because of his political allegiance.

Ah, more moving of goalposts. Now a statement is not merely enough, the leftist cuckold asks for more. Pathetic, just like every one of you cockroaches.

Well, I guess you'll have to look at all the post after that pic to see what they did with the Fate localization then. And I'm sure people have the pics about Treehouse messing with Xenoblade as well.

Then stop, no one wants your faggot ass here.

Likely banned for being a cretin.

In what fucking realm do you consider posting someone saying "i do this" proof of it actually happening? Are you retarded?

i'm sorry what

...

Playing NG+ as 9S and you can look up 2B's skirt without her swatting the camera away as she doesn't know you're doing it now

...

Wait so in NG+ you can play as different characters? Is it just 9S or are there others?

How much longer do you plan to keep embarrassing yourself?

It's just 9S at the moment, the opening has you playing from his perspective as you get into position and help out. He's pretty cool mechanically, rather than a heavy attack he has a hack where you can hack into enemies and if you beat that minigame they explode.

That's cool. I hope there are more playable characters, I loved playing as Jeanne and Rosa in Bayonetta.

Holy shit my sides, lad just stop posting anytime now like walk away from the computer this has gone far enough

Got any good shot of 9S's spats?

Hey that's not moon man, "that's good meme that died and came back to life as right propaganda moonman.''
I call him, fox news for short.

so what if he or she not from here, i can tell reddit, tumlr or something awful, so that a good thing at least, beside the only thing you most likely guessed indicated that he was not round here is that his opinion is not like yours.

I bet you believe in political correctness :^) and group thought .

Just leave.

They do it for the same reason most anyone labors on anything they have no personal attachment to. Money. More changes mean a fatter invoice to the publisher.

Oh i do, just not the new shit, the old shit was good as hell

Do localization threads always attract mental gymnasts like this? It smells of goon in here.


Uhuh, the fact that they all censor and change "problematic" content and signal certain political standpoints is pure coincidence.

Topics*

If money was the only motivator, there wouldn't be games with completely removed content. They'd make more money off of having more work to do.

he was better rapper back in the day, the good old YTMND days.

...

Is this seriously the best you kikes got?

Can one of the mods warn this faggot for not being able to comprehend what is being posted to him or something? This has to be shitposting for being this oblivious.
Fucking SJWs have ratted their way into localization teams to ruin games and try to shape them in their vision- not how the game was created by the producer.
Just playing games for the past 4 years you can name a ton that have had huge repercussions due to shitty localization and general slaughter of the game content because of "muh diversity and safe space".
It's not even a new thing for games to be riddled with disgusting memes, as it's moved onto being riddled with "appropriate culture"

A2 is objectively best girl.

Nah the YoRHa Commander is the best girl.
