Those rusted robots are most of the fodder you’ll be facing, and even some of the bosses feel like extensions of that design. I have to warn you, the enemy variety fits the theme, but it’s not going to be all that exciting at first. You can customize your HUD to your liking, or if you’re so inclined, swap to an easy-automatic mode that has its own chipsets and abilities.

You can upgrade your character with a fairly in-depth chip system (where you can attach minor stuff like “more HP” all the way up to “recover health when damaging or killing an enemy”), which lets you alter your build to suit your playstyle. It’s tough, especially on the harder difficulties (which shut off lock-on), but manageable. You know how in a lot of other games there’s situations where it feels like you have to lose to trigger a cutscene, but you end up just getting a game over screen instead? There’s many of those moments in Automata. Bosses are formidable and feel like actual boss fights, and when they throw hordes at you, it feels insurmountable.

Platinum’s strength is that it knows how to handle just about every form of combat.

There are times where I’m throttling all four shoulder buttons (lock-on, Pod power, standard shot, and dodge) all at once - which is so much more involved than your average action game. That said, it’s impressive all the same because of the sheer amount of weapon choices you have, the instant weapon set swapping mid-action, and the integration of shooter elements with “Pods,” or, little floating robot helpers. It’s fast, responsive, and the bosses put up a fight, but the combo system isn’t nearly as deep as some of Platinum’s other games. Now, I wouldn’t say the combat system is the studio’s best work, mind.

Pretty much everything from her slow walk to her dodging animations look unlike anything else in the action space, and even top Bayonetta 2 in some ways due to the framerate and advancements made since the Wii U. 2B doesn’t just climb down ladders, she slides down the side of it. In true Platinum fashion, everything is just so stylish.

It’s all rendered in 60FPS consistently too (on a PS4 Pro), which is naturally a godsend when it comes to the frame-perfect action, but also bolsters the general sense of awe when running around doing nothing in particular. The open world skyscrapers look mesmerizing, as do most of the other areas, which are surprisingly vibrant fonts of life. While looking at screens it’s easy to judge the art as somewhat dull, but in practice it’s beautiful. Many of their conversations end up playing out like a classic comedy duo on top of some of the more grave matters that the narrative touches on.

2B, the android protagonist, is stoic as hell which seems like a boring character trait, but ends up working well when juxtaposed to 9S, her silly companion. It’s a great idea to equip the androids with emotions as a story conceit, as it allows for more interesting developments between the cast. While elementary at times, the interaction between the characters sell it. Naturally it delves a bit in what it means to be an android or a machine, and the nature of humanity itself. You’ll unravel the finer points of what happened on the planet’s surface, as well as the relationship that aliens, humans, and androids all have with one another through the passage of time. It actually takes place hundreds of years after the aliens have taken over, so the Earth is dilapidated and mysterious. You’re part of an elite force of androids that are tasked to fight the machines (and by proxy, the aliens), and save humanity.īut Automata is so much more than a generic intergalactic struggle. The gist is that you’re in a post-apocalyptic world where aliens have invaded Earth, sparking a conflict based on machine warfare and pushing humanity to the moon. NieR: Automata is technically related to all of its predecessors in the two aforementioned franchises, but it’s not necessary to have played through or even read the synopsis on them to pick it up. I think that’ll change with NieR: Automata. It’s pretty well-known in some circles, but others are mostly just aware of it through silly boar riding and fishing. You don’t hear many people talk about the Drakengard or NieR series. The best Platinum joint since Bayonetta 2
