    I just want there to be a trophy for buying a trophy, which I can buy.

    The trophy will be a little guy holding a trophy of a little guy holding a trophy.

    On PS4 they're called trophies so it's not as funny. But the fact that people on PC will be buying their achievements is just too funny. At the very least, it's going to create a lot of great jokes in competitive games where people can say "You should probably go play Nier so you can just buy achievements, because you surely aren't going to earn them."

    Is this a thing where all the achievements are earnable through gameplay, but you can buy them with gil if you want? Or is buying them the only way to get them?

    They'll give out trophies for anything these days! I didn't get a trophy just for showing up!

    it's probably a thing where it's a special unique achievement for buying the trophy item in the shop which serves no purpose in the game other than to give you an achievement? I dunno I haven't looked at it that closely because I'm trying to avoid nier spoilers

    Meh, she wears a skirt

    I can honestly say that when I played the demo myself I did not try once to see up it because it just didn't occur to me. Then you go on neogaf and see everyone perving out about her panties.

    But then I did do it myself because someone pointed out that when you do try to see up her skirt she smacks the camera away which is great.

    Question:

    I wanna get Nier: Automata, but I should also know the first Nier. Can someone point me to a good LP or something?

    I'm not sure how connected they are. Doesn't Automata take place 8000 years later or something ridiculous like that?

    I think someone might have already linked it, and I know I have before, but The Dark Id did a great, informative Nier LP.

    https://lparchive.org/author/The%20Dark%20Id

    Also did all the Drakengards, if you're interested.

    yeah and drakengard takes place in a separate universe but they manage to be connected

    I also have a pet theory that Drakengard 3 directly connects to some of Nier's backstory, and I'm interested to see if Automata confirms any of it.

    There is a really good YouTube video that spends way too long going over the story of DoD/Nier. Shame I'm too lazy to look it up on my phone.

    Ronway you rotten so and so. I'm not doing this.
    Of course, after I make my decision, the scene BGM changes. I know this one.

    This is the one that plays when seriously bad shit is about to happen, when the puppeteer takes the stage. This seems awfully early in the story to hear this one.

    Well, it cost me my entire saturday, but I read an entire LP of Nier, including all endings and backstory. I think I know whatever I need to know for Nier Automata. Whatever it is that I need to know.

    Also I am super sad now. I hate sad endings. I am going to hate the new game, I'm 100% positive by the end of it.

    But he's said a lot of things.

    He said "a happy ending... of sorts" when the game was early in development.

    Which got a reaction of disbelief by his fellow developers.
