Hey what if we made you play the same campaign TWICE, except you get to be the more annoying, less skilled character...

Doesn't change the fact that it was boring as fuck to minigame everything to death

They really should have figured out how to do the hacking minigame without losing control of 9S or freezing the fight so you have to keep both you and your hack drone alive.

>over and over again
You only repeat it once and it's highly abbreviated
It's not even remotely like the first NieR where you actually replay the second half two times with no gameplay changes.
I don't think you played the game at all, faggot.

maybe, but OP called 9S “less skilled” when he takes less time to get rid of machines

That poor man's Gridwars thing was absolutely horrendous.
You could win the crate and standard enemy stages by simply remaining in your starting place and holding down the attack button, making you wonder why the fuck they even bothered.

Oh look another retard that only played to the end of A.

>it’s not like this totally abysmal design so it’s actually really good
going through everything again was unnecessary padding. it should’ve just let you switch POVs during the first playthrough (the way you do in playthrough C)

A2's campaign is cool but I understand if you stop playing at 9S. He sucks

It was for the purpose of pacing. Yes, it stretches content for playtime but it does so with meaning and grace that the first game lacks and you'd know that if you actually played the games.

hey, why were those golden machines even on route B in the first place? they don’t seem so relevant to the plot
