Nier

Because at the time Persona 5 was coming out around that time in the West, so they delayed to give it some time. Then Persona got delayed. Then Horizon and Zelda's release dates were announced.

Oh. But then why release the Japanese version on schedule?

There was a severe bug where the game couldn't save at many times, and you can't progress past the story (And that's after a particularly long stint where you couldn't save).

There's a 2.32 GB day one patch that fixes this. So don't get the game if you can't find a way to get the patch unless the American and European version gets the patch built in since the pre-patch version is essentially a long full price demo at this point.

How did they miss something that major in testing?

There's a possibility that it might have been intentional to keep players from beating the game if they got it early.

That sounds really shitty if it's true.

It was what happened with Dark Souls. Pre-release max level phantoms would spawn and kill anyone who got past the first boss IIRC. Think it even locked you out from trophies etc.

x5: Persona 5 has been out in Japan for a while now, this is strictly to do with the Western release which was orginally February 14th.

If it was intentional then wouldn't there be a Day 1 patch to "fix" it?

There is a day one patch to fix it.

Oh. You said as much in your post describing the bug.

Don't mind me, I'm just a dumb cat who can't read.

I couldn't help myself and ate the forbidden fruit. That's all I'll say.

I'm noticing that it's possible to clip enemies through the enviroment. It's happened two times so far. The game does push them back on the normal field so it doesn't seem like it's going to make an plot important enemy get stuck.

The whole game is being uploaded to YouTube as we speak, if someone could just put me in a coma for two weeks, that'd be lovely.

And some of the Japanese players are even playing it in english/english voiceacting but kanji text.

The FFXV team put out a little art piece to celebrate Nier Automata's japanese launch.

So uh, someone made a false assumption on the wiki. Tara Platt doesn't voice 2B. It's Kira Buckland.

They were wrong about 9S as well. He's voiced by Kyle Mc Carley, although he acknowledged the fact that most people thought it was Yuri Lowenthal since they sound so similar :p

So 2B and 9S aren't being voiced by a RL husband and wife? There goes my shipping fuel. For now.

I'm genuinely surprised that's not being released as a promotional item, unless they're holding it off for the US release.

Nier: Automata does material side quests fantastically.

If you don't already have the materials on hand, the game gives you a destination to go to where the materials are then guranteed to spawn, or there'll be tougher than usual enemies that are guranteed to spawn them if you kill them.

Gone are the days of eagle egg grinding.

Yeeeeesssss~

2B's design is pretty damn great.

Avoid the character page for now. Someone started adding tropes for characters.

I admit I added one while fixing one of their mistakes.

Remember when Yoko Taro said that Nier Automata's final ending wouldn't delete your save data like the first game? He lied.

Incorrect You choose to delete your save file for a completely different reason in the last confirmed main ending. The ending itself never requires you to delete anything .
