NieR: Automata

NieR: Automata is an open-world action-adventure game about three androids: 2B, 9S and A2. They are fighting against machines that long ago drove humanity off the planet. The story begins as a routine operation, but gradually turns into a conversation about memory, purpose, and what makes a creature alive. Different passages reveal events through the eyes of each character, and without this the picture remains incomplete. Combat switches between melee and shooting, and the camera angle changes depending on the situation. Dodges, blocks and chips allow you to adjust the hero to your own rhythm. Combat combines melee attacks with drone shooting and dodging, and also changes the angle in some areas. The world is filled with quiet ruins, where music and emptiness speak louder than words. The world looks deserted, but each location retains traces of the past: abandoned parks, mechanisms and records. Side quests sometimes lead to conclusions that change the way you look at the main story. Weapons, chips and modules allow you to assemble a character to suit your style, and side quests sometimes turn out to be unexpectedly sad. Endings and ending options have long been discussed by players as a separate phenomenon. The soundtrack has long lived a separate life, and concerts based on the game fill the halls. Technically, the project is also done carefully and works stably on different systems. The expansions expanded the story and added arena challenges, while costumes and weapons are gradually unlocked. The game works on different systems, so you can complete it without unnecessary difficulties. For those who are willing to go through the story more than once, this game provides one of the most powerful experiences in the genre.
