Board 8 > Anyone playing NieR Re[in]Carnation?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Did I get the weird stylised title right? I can't be bothered to check.

Anyhoo. Fairly standard gacha, literally plays itself for the most part if you want it to, and the only real challenge is working out how to spend all the myriad resources efficiently.

But it's a NieR game, which means nice scenery, incredible music, and an intriguingly bleak storyline. It seems the whole thing revolves around the weapon stories that the Drakenier franchise is known for, with each chapter having you reveal the four parts of one weapon's history, along with the intertwined stories of their former owners.

I have a theory about what's really going on that's probably wrong, but my initial guess is that The Cage is really the server on the moon, holding a record of the fall of humanity, and the Girl is some sort of record integrity checking program restoring corrupted data. And Mama is probably really a virus, because Yoko Taro.

I haven't made much story progress yet because I've been grinding the Automata crossover event. I've got 2B and A2 now, just a few more runs to get 9S.

oh is it out and like, not region locked now

tried playing it about a month ago but it didn't work

My aversion to gacha is too strong I think. I tried Sinoalice because of Yoko Taro and I was like "But this is gacha. I can't be bothered." almost immediately.
