I got this game for 10 bucks, and once I started to play I was sickened by the fact that I paid so little... which is the first time I ever felt that way about anything, really.

@thedragonb0y dont give them credit they only published it, cavia is the real geniuses behind the amazingness they made it, also related games drakengard and drakengard 2
My god this game made me cry, more than FF7 when Aeris passed... The wolfs in the desert... Beautiful game, great music and amazing story.... Thanks Square
@75haseo It would be nice to know what the early ones say, too. Unfortunately starting your 2nd playthrough drops you off at the midway point, for some godforsaken reason. =/
@HighPlanes420 I'm not a gameplay kind of guy. It's the only reason I made it through Drakengard. And the graphics were actually really good. Of course, I'm more of a retro gamer myself, the only reason I have a 360 is because of this game. I just couldn't miss out on it.
I love this game so much it's one of the only ones which makes you feel emotional when you play it lol. Cutscenes against the bosses are great and the twists in the story made me want to continue further into the game. I was gutted when I finally completed it lol
I found myself wandering through Emil's mansion on more than one occasion just to hear the singing. I wish it was a bigger 'dungeon' though, since the strange occurrences were fun to spot.
@ryodark That was a trick of your imagination. The game turned up the voice because the background music is still there. At least, in all the parts I've played/replayed.
@LoneStarImmortal Gameplay is important though, you can't say its not. Would you have played something like Kingdom Hearts if the gameplay wasn't good? Plus Nier had a pretty good gameplay, could it have been better ya, but the story and music made this game epic. And i'm getting so pissed from people saying the graphic were bad...... No they weren't, go to the sea port on the beach area and just look outward and try to tell me it don't look awesome.
As with every video game out there, Nier is not for everyone. You don't like the game? You don't have to play it, nor do you have to be an ass about it.
this game trumps everything you get so close to the characters for me the character was khaine more so than anyone i cried all 3 of the times she died and i didnt cry when my grandma died or even when my aunt died i didnt care but... this game is too sad for me right now i cant finish again
@deathmetalguitaristx another game series that makes you really care for the characters (though is not quite as depressing) is the Persona series from atlus. P3 and P4 are my absolute favorite RPGs
super underated game. any non-unidimensional thinkin human that have feelings for fictionals characters and love drama and some good variation on your tipical RPG and action adventure game should check this out =D
@alef321 yet again, because of stupid brainless gamers that hate actually thinking let this game type die out and instead Assassins Crred comercials are on tv like diahrea.
Wtf? I'm shocked that someone would even consider saying this was a bad game. It was amazing in my opinion, I felt like I was in another world while I played it.
It is probably because the game itself was really bad. Though people do have terrible taste in music these days in general. I love this music and the OST to this game is amazing but the game doesn't do the music justice. It was a tedious and boring game. I could never finish it and it was also to weird for most people's taste. Too bad because the soundtrack is amazing.
@HybridEnergy too bad for you, yeah the game's weird and thats what makes it awesome, besides the storyline is just way perfect. At times is tedious but the only tedious thing about it are the sidequests... which of course aren't necessary to undertake. Besides i cleared the game in 48 hours... thats actually kind of short but even so the storyline keeps on expanding afterwards.
Look if u need someone to push u down that cliff just let me know u stupid shithead :D
Yea... I'm a shithead because I don't like this game. Oh wait, neither does any other review anywhere in the world. Gimmie a break. The game looks terrible, the combat system is a joke, the weirdness kills the story and the voice acting is inconsistent and laughable. Don't speak of story, if I want a good story I will go play Mass Effect 2 and if I want to laugh I will play Nier. Don't get me wrong though, the music is great and I go back to listen to it all the time.
@HybridEnergy reviews made by gay and retarded people (such as ign, gamespot and shit) two of the best guys here in youtube whom reviewed the game basically agreed in something... the game is underrated, and the same asswhipes whom underrated the game gave MW2 a 10/10. That goes to say that u cant do a review of an RPG when u like FPS's, and sadly the game actually its really good and one of the best, BUT i realized that its pointless to try and force someone like something that they don't.
I actually gave the game a shot. Thanks to the music. The more I played the less I liked it, usually that is the opposite. I have liked games that got poor scores before but this one I had to agree with the scores. Its cool if you like it man I guess. I loved Silent HIll Homecoming and everyone else thought it was shit.
@FinalFantasyR0CS I'd say it's more most people have a strong instinct to actively avoid Cavia games.
If the games don't outright suck out loud like Drakenguard 2, they rip out the player's heart and stomp on it like in Nier. Honestly, I was pretty damn morose after I got ending D in Nier.
@FinalFantasyR0CS not about taste, just preference. Many people would prefer games that they can be light-hearted about, in which this game is the exact opposite as the soundtrack suggests. Try to understand things from this point of view.
A wondrous game like this is underapreciated thanks to stupid, brainless shooters

But story is one of the GREAT points of Nier. Either you didn't finish it or you didn't really get it.
