Nier: Automata is the symbol of Yoko Taro's excellent writing and PlatinumGames' young and amazing talent. The gameplay is absolutely solid and consistently stays fresh with the addition of new weapons and features.

First shipping was great earlier on hours usually I get packages at or after 3 pm on the delivery, however not today. Brand new game package and when I open it I'm the disk was off the thing that keeps it from falling. The disk was not on place and there were some signs scratches vary small.
