In Nier Automata, 9S does lots and lots of hacking and discovers many secrets, including one that I kinda suspected all along: Humanity no longer exists and collapsed following the events of the first game (although apparently not for like another 800 years), but they do have genetic information from the Gestalts and structural information from the Replicants stored on the moon. In fact, humanity was already extinct when the aliens invaded, which essentially means the army of Emils fought them by themselves, I guess? Either way, humanity's continued existence was a myth that was spread to give the androids fighting the machines a boost in morale and a goal to fight for. Still, if both sides in this war are already dead, what exactly are the androids and machines fighting each other for?

9S also uncovers some interesting facts about the machines: The fact that, outside of combat, they only imitate human behavior, and the same human behavior over and over and over again, even if it fails. 9S says it seems like failure itself is the goal, which caught my attention. Then Adam starts taunting 9S about how they're both driven by hatred...until 2B kills him anyway. I also found a bunch of Project Gestalt documents as I hacked my way through the factory server, so that was neat.
