I played Nier Automata long before Persona 5. Nier Automata's full length forced playthrough of route B killed the game for me. All that work for shitty hacking minigames and a few added cutscenes.

I sure hope you are trolling. It's literally robots designed like humans, that were programmed wrong.

If that's all you took from it you are a simple man.

I still have this game in my shelf and haven't played it yet.

12 units or 120k? I refuse to believe Nier 1 sold 12 units.

Amazing , look at what one good ass can do . Then we have ppl in the west saying shit like "sex sells is a meme" or respect wemen ( because admiring beauty is disrespectful for some fucking reason )

It's hyperbolic for comedic effect. The original was very niche but still had a decent cult following.

Alright carry on, I thought it was worded poorly but it might be me who misinterpreted.

It is though, nier just had good meme bait, lots of sex games sell like shit

No shit?

If the next game doesn't feature a thick booty girl, Im not buying

This is hardly worthy of praise. You can have sexualized designs without turning your characters into heavy-handed vehicles for fan service. The fact that Yoko Taro couldn't; even manage something as basic as that speaks volumes about his incompetence as a writer.

"all clothing in videogames needs a PRACTICAL reason to be the way its designed We cant just have designs be the way they are for purely stylistic choices!"

Here's a (you) for actually being autistic enough to compile and post these over and over again

Are there really people who enjoyed P5 more? I liked both but N:A was definitely better.

Yakuza 0 was better than both though.

why do you go out of your way to try make Kaine look sane?

Automata is multiplat though.

Nobody forces Atlus to remain on one platform

>12 units.
This has to be an hyperbole.

Kaine dresses like that because she's a hermaphrodite that wants to be treated and be looked at like a woman and is taking it to very extreme extents because she was bullied as a child and was called a monster.

Well Nier A isn't an RPG, so they aren't very comparable.

The first Nier already desperately tried to go mainstream. They even dumbed down the western version to appeal to a dudebro audience:

siliconera.com/2010/05/20/barbarian-nier-was-born-in-los-angeles/

>Originally, the young Nier was the only main character. “I made the youthful version (the protagonist of Nier Replicant) first, during development Saito-san (producer) talked about considering overseas markets,” Taro Yokoo, Director at Cavia, explained in an interview with Inside Games. “At Square Enix’s Los Angeles studio we had a discussion, it was said having a fragile young character was not possible. So, I started preparing a macho protagonist for North America.”

>European and American staff were brought in for a heated debate. The point in question was whether a delicate looking character can wield a giant sword without looking ridiculous. Because Nier is a new intellectual property and they wanted it to sell, Cavia and Square Enix moved forward with two versions.

Who gives a fuck?
Nier on Xbox One BC fucking WHEN??

But one is clearly on Xbox, and spoilers: it's the one that sold better.

Both Persona 5 and Nier: Automata are some of the greatest games ever created, togethet with Zelda: BotW.

2017 was a surprisingly good year for the triple-A industry, after over a decade of trash.

It only sold two million more thanks to being multiplat whereas P5 was exclusive and sold 2 million and Atlus got to keep more of the profits due to only being on one platform. The fact that see things fags even had to bring up P5 means they're living in their head rent free

It's already on Xbox One.

Persona 5 fuckin blows bro, its obnoxiously condescending and glacially paced. Any time you're in danger of having fun you're suddenly locked in for hours of cutscenes.

It sold well because twitter meme faggots made a ton of cringy "2BUTT XD" jokes and some cosplay thots put on a blindfold and wig to farm beta bucks. In nearly every way that matters, the first Nier is superior.

It had already sold over 3 million units before it even came to Xbox.

And P5 is on PS3 too, and released a year earlier in Japan.

>You can have sexualized designs without turning your characters into heavy-handed vehicles for fan service.
But there is nothing wrong with "heavy-handed vehicles for fan service" unless you're a religious puritan or a hambeast/hambeast orbiter.

As I'm sure you know they haven't broken the sales down by system, but unless you're a slobbering retard you must also realise that most of the sales are on PS4.

Over 500,000 sales in Japan very early on in its lifetime which would've been almost entirely on PS4 (most of these sales pre-dated the delayed Steam release and japs can't into PC anyway),

The majority of of the western sales would also have been PS4 owed both to the delayed release of the PC version and the bad PC port resulting in early mixed reviews on Steam (still unpatched to this day).

The game crossed the 3 million threshold before the Xbone version even released, that version is probably ~500k of the total sales considering the game of the YoRHa edition has also released since then on PS4 and PC.

Even if the PC version accounts for more than 600k of the sales which happened before the 3 mil milestone (and I think it does) it's plain as day that if the game was exclusive to PS4 many of the people who got it on PC would have gotten it on PS4 if it was only available option.

If it didn't already sell over 2.4 million copies on PS4 then it pretty obviously would have as an exclusive.

>Nier 1 became a huge cult gem has nothing to do with Automata success, nor SE actually putting a good marketing behind it, Platinum making a more polished product and/ or being multiplatform.
>It was the ass
I don't know why so many retards spout this, it that was true Bayonetta 1&2 or P.N.03 would have sold like hotcakes.

>But there is nothing wrong with "heavy-handed vehicles for fan service" unless you're a religious puritan or a hambeast/hambeast orbiter.
You're holding up a false dichotomy. Both of the characters in that image are equally scantily clad, but the one in the left actually feels an organic part of the setting, whereas the one in the right sticks out like a sore thumb.

I'm not familiar with FFXIV at all, but how does this relate to NA plot? It's just crossover shit or something else?

Nah mate. Persona 5 is easily one of the greatest JRPGs of all time, with stellar story, themes, atmosphere, visual design, cast, music, and even gameplay. It's easily the peak of its own series as well.

Honestly an amazing game that fully deserves all the sales, but unfortunately would never have sold that much if not for the ass, so I say good for Taro and the team for going in that direction.

lmao Persona 5 peaks in the first palace, how the fuck can P5 be one of the greatest JRPG's of all time if the peak is the very first dungeon.

just a crossover themed raid.

debatable. I for one didn't care for the butt at all, and only got interested on the game a whole year later, after I started noticing people refer to the game as some sort of emotional rollercoaster.
And they were right.

She does stick out like a sore thumb though, she's supposed to, no one thinks she looks normal in her own world.

So it wasn't the ass but cutenes now?
I guess every single moe videogame ever has sold very wellOH WAIT, no, there are games with cute girls as protagonist that have sold very bad, bad, decently, well and very well, like everything else.

Stop baiting zoomzoom. P5 isn't even the best game of its own spin-off series, much less the entire Megaten franchise.

How does P5 peak in the first palace? It peaks after the casino palace - I agree everything from there on is downhill.

bayo has no ass you wapaneese low-t faggot.

Another thread with seething Nintendo, Xbox and PC fags who will never get to play P5R unless they buy a PS4

Its own series sucks just as hard. Persona 5 teased the player into thinking the series finally had something to offer beside a discount friend simulator by restoring some gameplay mechanics and proper dungeons, but both of these turned out to be tremendous letdowns.

That was the same for me as well,
I know it's debatable for the few who didn't buy for ass, but do you really not think the vast majority bought it because they saw an ass and "the gameplay and story is good too I guess" attached?

Also, cute != moe. Faggot weeb.

>lmao Persona 5 peaks in the first palace,
It does not.
The 2nd palace is already way better, and Futaba's tomb is the best chapter.
Even after that, the game remained damn engaging and enjoyable. I can only criticize Haru's introduction taking place too late, and the very end-game having pointless exposition dump. Those do not reduce the otherwise magnificent ride by much though.

never played persona 5 but is it true that the game takes 90+ HOURS to complete?

The first Nier for 360, not Automata.

did they fix the pc port yet?

more like western sjw trash btfo.

i only play japanese games and a few slav ones but its not even funny that weebshit goevs mainstream and casual fucks play it. western media and sjw devs should brainwash western normies more than ever and stop them playing weebshit. i dont want to see western shit media covering japanese games and all that shit.

>Stop baiting zoomzoom
Go back to bed, kiddo.
I'm 31, my wife's a year older, and not only have we played ALL of Purse-Owner games + most of the SMT titles, but we both consider 5 to be the peak of the whole saga. It actually managed to beat P3:FES, which is something.

>Its own series sucks just as hard.
Stop being so negative.

You didn't buy it for the writing

Taro felt that he had some more bullshit left in his ass for Nier fans to gobble up and Yoshida is desperate for other people's ideas to pad his WoWclone.

Just like the 1000 year old loli shit, this doesn't hold up to scrutiny because we all know the actual reason she's dressed like that is they wanted a half-naked chick. Which is perfectly fine, no reason to waste time coming up with pages of lore on why when no one short of absolute retards like you will believe it for a second anyways

I'm being honest. The Persona series - from 3 onward at least, I can't speak for the first 2 games - have been poor RPGs.
I can understand newcomers having such low standards that they tolerate the horrible dungeons each of these games feature, but none of these games have any substance to offer genre veterans.

no, use mods.

>people are seriously trying to pretend Persona is a niche franchise
it hasn't been niche or obscure since 3 dude

Why the FUCK isn't Nier backwards compatible on Xbone yet?

>One is a turn based game from a previously slightly niche series (SMT)
>The other is an action game that was also a multiplat. Plus has that ASS factor
No wonder...

They are preparing a Nier 1 remaster. Be a good goy now.

Wow bro, you managed to finish P3???!!!!!!! What an epic gamer you are. P5 is fine, but it's not even the best game of its own series. It has many of the same character development problems P4 had while introducing many more with the purely directed overall story.

oh god /eog/ is leaking again

Zoomers actually think p3 is hard because reddit told them its unbeatable without direct party control.

>The Persona series - from 3 onward at least, I can't speak for the first 2 games
Then don't say anything.
Also newsflash: there's many types of "RPGs". If you only limit yourself to one definition, nothing will ever be acceptable.

P3 was great. P4 was okay. P5 was damn great.

Persona 5 is soulless, the prime example of style over substance.

This would be my first time buying the game, so I don't really care. But after Automata got ported to Xbone I was expecting Nier to become backwards compatible sometime soon.

Etrian isn't even that good, there are DPRGs a lot better than it. That said, it has much more going for it than Persona ever did.

It's almost like there is a market for platinum games.

I enjoyed the Deathdream segment too, quite a bit actually, but it also magnified just how limited the game really was.

to be fair, Nier can be bought on 2 CURRENT platforms, cant say the same about persona 5
a steam or switch release would help the games sales considerably
>inb4 port beggar
its just the truth bro, games this gen are way too easy to port to PC since all consoles are now custom build PCs, all runing in x86 arquitecture, the only thing keeping games away from PC is exclusivity deals

I want yoko taro to write ff 16s story (characters)

If i loved Persona 3 would i like 5?

Play and see it fag

t. bootybothered nintendork who has a big mouth but doesn't actually buy platinum games

platinum should be fully multiplat or they will fucking die

Absolutely.
t. old P3-fag.

Very different tone, but yes probably.
I'd argue that P5 is simultaneously more lighthearted and more SMT than P3.

Retard you're comparing a game sold in multiple platforms to one sold on two, not to mention you're comparing a hack and slash to a fucking turn based JRPG
It's like comparing apples to a fucking rock

Persona 5 sold better beyond expectations and exclusivity means Atlus keeps more of the profits. Plus PC and Switchfags seethe

if platinum were to die it wouldn't be due to the consoles they put games on(they're pretty evenly dispersed at the moment in terms of consoles they have games on), it would more be due to their blatant mismanagement of projects, starting 8 new projects before they are even halfway done with one.

>Also newsflash: there's many types of "RPGs". If you only limit yourself to one definition, nothing will ever be acceptable.
So pray tell, what kind of type of RPG is Persona? What does it offer that other RPGs don't?

Persona 5 sold 2,7 millions on PS4 alone, Nier is on multiple platforms if Persona 5 was it would also sold as Nier. Regardless we should be happy that JRPGs are selling well and I hope Square expands on Nier franchise from now on.

Roughly half of Nier Automata's sales are from the PS4 alone. PC and Xbox sales are a mere fraction

Even of you assume no less than half the PS3's or PS4's userbase should be removed to account for people that bought a PS3 then a PS4, it still amounts to the same userbase as PS4+Xone

Why is Persona 5 being compared to Nier?

I bought it because I liked Nier and wanted a sequel. I would of liked the cancer wave following automata to not exist but whatever

Nier sold because it had incredible gameplay and fantastic storytelling that propels videogame as an art form. The gratuitous sex in it only serves to detract from the story elements and the game would have sold a lot more if it didn't objectify women.

Almost every modern JRPG aside from horrible kusoge like FF15 or games from Gust and Compile Hearts is better than P5

A sexy character or sexy ad will attract attention, which will then sell your product because more people know what it is.

Of course "sex games" specifically don't sell because actual porn or products designed around sexiness from the ground up (Senran Kagura, Onechanbara, etc.) are an inherent niche. They're not what the phrase "sex sells" is referring to.

>Atlus got to keep more of the profits due to only being on one platform
Please explain what sort of insane logic you're using to claim that being on more platforms takes away more of your profits.
The only cost is during development if you don't build your game to be easy to port.

Fuck Automata. Now Yoko Taro's gonna make soulless not edgy shit cause Automata struck it big

I will take games with positive messages over the edgy shit any day.

Then you don't like real Yoko Taro

>incredible gameplay
isn't it just a discount metal gear rising? you just slash health sponges? whats great about that?

Pod programs add more depth than Rising

90 million PS4s sold, weeb game only sells 4 mil across platforms. What the fuck do ps4 owners play?

Nani?
The game is on both pc and xbone

>The gratuitous sex in it only serves to detract from the story elements
Know its bate but desire is literally the core of the later parts of the story.

this comment is meaningless, the prime example of wanting to fit in with Yea Forums shitposters on a game you haven't played.

>clawed dragonskin gloves and dragonskin pants that never actually leads anywhere

So much of this game was nothing but a dicktease. Automata was good but it's definitely one of Taro's weaker titles.

If Square was smart they'd have a team doing a slight graphical update and port of the first right now + Taro working on another one.

Here’s something else that’s realistic

who is persona games marketed towards? from everything i've seen it looks like its for women and gay men. like life is strange

I got memed into buying Automata at half off and it still wasn't worth that price. The original NIER absolutely shits on it. Every single aspect is better, especially the music and story. THICCposters carried this game.

the only people who say it peaks in the first palace are console-war shitposters, tortanic shitters, and zoomers who stopped watching their favorite twitch streamers play it after the first palace. at this point, it's one of the most basic bitch "criticisms" that actually exposes people for never playing the game.

realistic is a buzzword

>THICCposters carried this game.
the real time soundtrack is pretty nice

the only people pushing the narrative that p3 is "hard" are p3babbies who want to act elitist over liking the most boring game in the series.

>who is persona games marketed towards?
patricians who enjoy god-tier games.

What does it fucking matter if they're not forced to keep persona exclusive? It's exclusive and nier is not and that's that. It should come as no surprise when multiplats sell more than exclusives and that's why it's a shocker when they don't like Days gone selling more than MK.

nice non-answer. i'll continue avoiding this obvious cancer of a series

The main story cutscenes are 40+ hours. All of the lifesim stuff is around 25. So you'll at best spend 30 hours in dungeons and combat.

I have KH3 and Automatta lined up for vacations. I'm the most curious about Nier but I''l play it second just in case I need a plate cleanser.
