Do I need to play Drakengard (3?) And Nier to understand Automata?

Do I need to play Drakengard (3?) And Nier to understand Automata?

no, there's references to nier but automata is its own story and drakengard is in a different universe, but drakengard 3 is pretty good though

Please respond

The first one, yes

they're not the same game nigger

You can start with automata, but Nier is amazing so you need to consider playing that first

Thank you!

I'm at amusement park now and the boss keeps stomping me to death at 5% of its health

I can't seem to jump away since she also does electric shockwaves

There's no reason to play anything other than D1 and Nier.

Automata's gameplay lacks in comparison to other Platinum titles and the story isn't anything special.

Don't bother.

you need a science degree in butt anatomy to really enjoy Automata

Why do the wear the masks? Blind?

Nah, set pieces are well worth playing for

Got stuck there first time aswell, just keep trying, maybe keep distance if you got the time

What is that makes most of the characters so fuckable?

finished it a year ago but i remember staying close to it slashing and shooting at the same time and evading the bubbles

Wow, it’s the first time I’ve seen someone struggle with a boss in Automata.

The interface is shown there. What you see on screen is what they see there.

Why does this game get so much hate here?

>Why does this game get so much hate here?
Nintendo hate
And gays

It doesn’t. There are shitheads with no taste (aka witcher fans) but other than that Yea Forums likes the game

No

There is enough context within automata to understand it's story alone

Extra dimensionally horror beast warps space and time into tokyo and promptly dies
Small particles of corpse causes people to come in contact to extra dimensional god who for unknown reasons turns people in A) monsters B) salt
Humanity is meant to be saved by separating soul from body
Souls and bodies go awol and destroy each other leaving none left on earth
Androids exist at this time

Yea Forums is a edgy contrarian teen who shits on anything good

DMCV faggots claiming their gayass manchild game is better lmao

I liked both, desu. W3 is almost Japan tier good.

This and that

There are plenty of references to Drakengard 1 and 3 especially Nier so yeah, you need to play those.

If you don't listen to me, you'll miss out on those references which is a pretty big part of the game contrary to what others are saying. They're dumb they don't know.

You sound insufferable so I will reject your opinion.
Thanks

Some anons were claiming this to not be real. Nobody confirmed.

Some literal faggot I forget the name of did a pretty decent rundown of the Drakengard/Nier plots on youtube, it's about 2-3 hours to get through them all if you can stand his shitty skits. I was a lot happier playing Automata after watching them.

NIER re-release fucking when

>NIER re-release fucking when

Yes, don't listen to retards who say no. You won't understand half the game properly if you haven't played Nier and DoD, especially towards the end of Automata.

How broken is it?
>i-its perfectly playable
How. Broken. Is it. If its not, I better see proof.

I hope someone does.
