 Hello everybody welcome to my third time recording this goddamn video cuz the first time I got interrupted the second time I didn't put in the port so it would record on my microphone and this time. I'm just gonna wing it So today I'm gonna be talking about near automata, which is a game. I recently played that got me fucked up I love it so much It's so good And I think it speaks volumes that I don't usually play video games And this is one of the ones that actually got me reeled in for a long time To the point where I wasn't answering friends for like five or six hours just because I was playing this game because I loved it So much there's a few things that I wanted to talk about specifically who I'm drawing in this video It's just simple headshots But I like to draw them because they're first of all their designs are great and second of all their Amazing characters But who I'm drawing is to be and 9s and I want to talk about them as characters And I want to talk about the storyline and how it sort of contributes to that and why it's so amazing And I'm also gonna try to keep this a spoiler free as possible So bear with me children if you played this game before this is literally just me talking about how much I love it And sort of explaining the story to it. So a basic premise for this game is that aliens invaded earth like Fuck I don't know like 11,000 years ago or some shit and they started creating machines and that drove humans off of earth to the moon and You find out some more information about that later, but again, I'm trying to keep it spoiler free. So Just yeah, I don't know take it. I guess fuck. I don't know But anyways, so they go to the moon and they create these androids and these androids come to earth to fight To fight off the machines and basically clear off earth to make it better for humans And so you play as to be which is the one that I'm sketching right now. That's She is what primarily actually got me into the game because I saw a bunch of cosplayers cosplaying as to be and I also saw how pretty she was so I kind of started playing for what most people start playing for is how cute and amazingly Styled to be is and I stayed for the lovely storyline and one thing to also Mention about a storyline is Don't do what I did Which is you don't okay? So you don't really get the storyline the Complete full storyline until maybe about route halfway through route 2 and especially throughout 3 So what don't do what I did which is I started looking up near automata content as soon as I finished playing as to be Because I was like, oh, yeah, that's the end of the game you play as to be that's who they advertise the whole game as to be I Was wrong and I ended up getting spoiled for myself early on but I still got to enjoy the game You know just for what it was but um So you play as to be in your first route, which is ending a 9s in your second route Which is ending be and then 9s and a 2 in your third route And that's not that's not really spoiling a whole lot. I think most people knew that but um Don't I definitely just know that the story doesn't wholly completely start until route 2 But there's still a lot to be enjoyed in 2b's especially with the little details that it hints around about the story And one thing I think I really liked about the characters and the character designs in this game was the fact that usually when you can when you're Watching a show or when you're playing a game It's always the girl that's gonna be weaker than the guy because the girls are always weaker than guys There's never been a situation in the entire world where a girl has been stronger than a guy But anyways, um, I kind of like that 2b is the stronger one and people I don't know if people are gonna hate me for that Some feminist stuff, but I like that to be a stronger than 9s because you don't really see that a whole lot And she the reason she's stronger is because she's a battle model, which is why she's 2b So she can equip two swords at a time which makes her better equipped for battle And I think she's just overall like physically programmed for it better Whereas 9s he is a search model and he mostly gathers intel and he can only equip one weapon at a time So that kind of it makes him physically weaker. I don't think he's weaker as a character Definitely not. He's a great character very well-written He's very intelligent, and I just appreciate him and love him so much. He's my boy, but That's that's one of the that's one of the good things that I like about the game And also about 2b being able to fight really well when you fight as her it's extremely fun I did and how you guys are gonna hate me for this But I did use auto chips because I'm not very good at games And I really just love enjoying the story and the small aspects of the game So I put it on auto chips, and I just really I love watching 2b fight It's just so amazing because first of all she can equip two weapons at once so depending on the combo she's gonna be using one heavy weapon one light weapon depending on how you equipped it and Just the way she fights is so pretty the dodging System is so cool because she kind of like phases out of existence and the way she fights sort of looked like she's dancing and It's there sparkles everywhere You know it really it caters to my aesthetic soul, and it's just so nice to watch 9S is sort of the same He's still fun to fight with he's actually got this This other property because he doesn't equip two weapons and she does so where her heavy weapon would be used He can hack instead and that's cool because it sort of makes you play Mini a minigame a shooter minigame To hack into whoever you're fighting and then with the sword of course he can use that and he can switch out weapons, but he can't He can't use more than one of them at once, but I think that's cool How they they made that little variance change to and I just I love how the little details They put in there are just amazing Like that one for example because he's a search model So they purposefully make him to where he can do most of his damage when he hacks as opposed to when he fights Because he's not he's not built for that, but nevertheless his fighting is still cool, and I just I enjoy it so very much I also enjoy the dynamic between these characters, and that's not something you really realize until you're done playing the game but it really is Interesting how they would interact and it's important to like pay attention to the little detail so that you'll realize what's going on halfway through But um, I hope you guys enjoyed this video I really enjoyed talking about near-automata because I don't really like to just you know put all of my love of it out There's but you know what fuck it.
