(2015) Question for PS4 owners: if the situation would be reverse? would you still play on PS4?

Oh this game looks really good and fun. Let me add it to my list of most anticipated games.

Didn't get a chance to watch the boss battle until now. Woah. Quite impressive!

May have to switch back to a Nier avatar.

I like the 2D to 3D transition of the bosses orb attack. Really well done.
Hey GG, I'm not familiar with this series. Why do the protagonists wear blindfolds?
Are they psychic and fight better using their powers?
Look's really good.

is actually a visor not a blindfold, i know its weird but... what in this game isnt weird XD

That is a terrible thing to suffer.

 

I wish i didn't have the same problem, lol.

 

Aren't Drakengard games part of the same IP? Gosh i think i just added 3 more games into your backlog.

Crap.

Better start looking on eBay.

Thanks a lot

No, you do NOT need to play drakengard, that game series is a prequel that occurs WAY BEFORE Nier it just sets up the world of Nier but its events dont tie into Nier.

Check this chart to understand the timeline

Drakengard 3 is a prequel to Drakengard 1 and 2 and then WAY later Nier takes place in ONE of the many endings of Drakengard, every drakengard has different endings with different possibilities for the future wich means that Nier is just one of the dozens of possible futures after drakengard 3 (the first game in the timeline).

Also Drakengard story is so convoluted that it feels like it doesnt make sense, im not talking about Metal Gear levels of complex story telling but something so weird and hard to understand than even after playing Drakengard 3, 6 times for every one of its endings i still dont know what the f#ck happened at the end... you really dont need to play those games to play Nier, you can treat it as its own independent series.
