Enthralling narrative; varied gameplay; oozes with originality

Bugs that clearly should've been ironed out for the PC release; too obscure at times

The original NieR flew under so many people's radars that most don't even know of its existence. It was this strange JRPG-like character action game with some eclectic characters, a strange world and a story that required you to play through the game multiple times before you really got the full...

The narrative is incredibly unique and engaging | Combat is fast-paced and varied | You'll learn to love the characters through all the playthroughs | Interesting world to explore and get to know intimately | Wonderful soundtrack | Genre-defying variation

No ability to mark an active quest; which makes navigating confusing | Visuals could have used a little work

NieR: Automata is a special game. It's special not because of its great combat, amazing animations, or its magical soundtrack. It's special because of the questions it asks. What does it mean to be alive

After 50+ hours, I have finally finished Nier: Automata and have seen all of the true endings in the game.

Definitely worth a purchase if you are interested in RPG type games. If you are a casual gamer this may not be for you, some serious hours of gaming are to be had from this game. Argos were also the cheapest seller of this game.

I think this might of been what final fantasy 7, remake was going to be, but then they restructured it, probably because they weren't satisfied with it. so created different characters, and gave it a new name, I thought it was really good. and should probably have let it be ff7.

Great game, would definitely recommend. Postage and payment were both a breeze too.

Pros: - Excellent combat thats always finding ways to be fresh - Outstanding music that complements the game beautifully (The robots chanting in the refinery was especially incredible) - Boss fights that are consistently exciting, challenging, and have an incredible sense of scale - A thoughtful and...
