Forums - Sony - Fellow Demon's Souls brethren, is Neir a good pickup?

Nier is definitely by far an amazing game. So under-rated. BUY IT!!!!!

Well Neir is in the bargain bin, i would say its an okay game, i only played it about 1/4 of the way through. its hard to think at times your playing a PS3 game, it looks like a PS2 game. aside from that i got fed up of the fetch quests.

you can progress into the main story, but if your trophy hunting you'll most like screw up, as it takes 4 playthroughs minimum to platinum. and half the game cant be revisited.

its got a nice feel to it. at first i didnt like it, but it does grow on you, and the soundtrack is very beautiful. i didnt get that far into it, so i cant say about the story, but its a nice game if you have the time. if you just want to play it through you wont have a problem, but i went item hunting, and i just spent ages in the same place, and i got fed up. i'll get round to it eventully, but it takes time to do everything.

Trophies would be the last thing I worry about. I am mainly interested in it for the storyline, music and voice acting. Things like item hunting or trophy hunting I will worry about later on if need be.

Storyline, music, and voice acting is the games top points.



Anyone know where I could get the best deal possible? Money is incredibly tight and can only get a game if it is cheap or if I sell some of my other titles.

I found it for $20 plus shipping brand new on Amazon or I could get it for $17 used with free shipping from GameFly. If this game is what I believe it will be then I would like to support the devs and buy it new.
