𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
i keep wanting to test a nier character in hugs
Infychu
And because I finished watching P5R but have nothing to do with those muses, so a new game needs to replace it. B|bb
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
emil or 9s, not sue
Infychu
You should!
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
*sure
Infychu
IDK who Emil is yet, but 9S is always good.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
would need to replay automata and gestalt. or wait for replicant
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
emil is a Good Bean
Infychu
ღ zipper noises : You are a menace, how did you just teleport in here the SECOND I plurked this. (LOL)
ღ zipper noises
I only have minimal knowledge but I would already die for Emil
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
same
ღ zipper noises
I have impeccable timing, obviously
Saturn Is A Tea
another one joins us
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
he is a smol bean in need of protection
Infychu
A good healthy dose of spite to start things off.
Infychu
DO A BARREL ROLL
Old Wolf Winter
oe of us
Old Wolf Winter
one of us
Infychu
Oh, pretty. She looks like she should step on someone.
Infychu
The baby has arrived
Infychu
OMG good, pet the robot friend
Infychu
No emotions ever we are robots
Infychu
I'll probably stop for the night after this boss battle, I'm tired.
Infychu
But since it needs to be said: IT'S A GUNDAM
Infychu
9S: I'm tiny and that thing is huge. Surely this will help and not be utterly futile. /YEET
Infychu
Gosh, what a shame 9S dies and we never see him again.
skelefriend
2B: "Emotions are prohibited."
also 2B: immediately starts the game off with an internal monologue about how she wants to kill god
also also 2B: keeps doing sidequests for no more reason than it's a nice thing to do
skelefriend
I love her lots
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
the instant 9S is hurt
Pod: it's a waste-
2B: SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!11!
fae bells
CACKLES it spreads
Infychu
I approve of kuudere 2B. Also I have a lunch break but I'm braindead, so watching more of this.
太宰
oh rip
Infychu
Or is she more tsundere, yelling at this poor dying soft boi to shut up?
Infychu
(thinking)
太宰
2b is v kuudere
太宰
she's just very... hm. rule-orientated?
Infychu
Makes sense
Infychu
And then they both died, game over.
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ.
Infychu what P5R muses..... Also <33333 NieR
Infychu
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ. : I got Morgana and Akechi kicking around.
Infychu
Are those black boxes like, literal black boxes? Did they just rip their robo-hearts out and self-destruct?
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ.
oh my god /grabbyhands at with my Ren
Infychu
You can has~ /dumps them in your lap
Infychu
See, now THIS is an amnesia trope I can appreciate. Robots are REALLY good for that.
Infychu
Glory to the motherfuckers she will BURN ALIVE. B||||
Infychu
This is a really cute IC menu explanation/justification
Infychu
Pfffft what a good joke ending
Infychu
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ. : PP if you wanna plot something maybe?
Infychu
So what's the difference between androids and machines, aside from intelligence and which species made them?
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ.
I will def PP you o7
Infychu
And back to work I go
Infychu
MOOOOOOOOOOSE
Infychu
Hi, I'm Jackass, and welcome to Jackass.
Infychu
Are they as fun as their name implies?
ღ zipper noises
: D
Infychu
And now, that chick from The Ring
Infychu
Machine Disneyland?
Infychu
So do we ever see these aliens who made the machines?
Infychu
Ooh, that's a cool boss
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
you're in chapter 4 i'm guessing?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
giant singing machine lifeform?
Infychu
Yeah, the singing thing decorating herself with corpses.
Infychu
She is a beautiful, macabre diva who deserves a standing ovation.
Infychu
This village has a cool song
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
aaaaaaaaa i love pascal's village
skelefriend
remember the menu. it'll come back later. c:
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
does anyone else (without spoiling) get emotional for ending e? just wondering.
Old Wolf Winter
e made me cry
Old Wolf Winter
to be fair once you get to the point where ending e is possible it's pretty obvious what's going to happen in ending e
Infychu
Lunch break, time for more vidya
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ.
w00t
ᴡᴀᴋᴇ.
I actually just. started a replay LOL
Infychu
Excellent~
Infychu
Oh hey it's the fucker
Infychu
You invented a bunch of scrapped parts? Are you sure you didn't just kill a machine and rip its guts out, sir?
Infychu
Okay, back to work I go.
Infychu
Little sister~
ღ zipper noises
: D
Infychu
Machines don't have hearts? Meaning like, black boxes?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
I need to get back to my replay but I think they mean metaphorical hearts?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
god, I can't wait for you to see all the main endings
Infychu
But I thought they weren't supposed to have emotions/metaphorical hearts as androids either?
Infychu
2B talked about how emotions are unnecessary and such.
ღ zipper noises
ahaha well...
ღ zipper noises
well.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
spoilers~
Infychu
I see~
fae bells
Infychu
This looks like a final boss room. (unsure) Do we get to see the aliens yet?
Infychu
PANTS
Infychu
Dickless Wonder has leveled up and acquired pants, good job
Infychu
"We want to vivisect your masters. Doesn't that sound sexy as HELL?"
Infychu
Not even SLIGHTLY subtle about your kinks, are you?
ღ zipper noises
snrk
Infychu
OMG what a good stage play
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
"You're just thinking about how much you want to **** 2B, aren't you?"
Infychu
Who, Adam?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
hahahaahaahahaa
Infychu
I mean TBF who DOESN'T want to fuck 2B
Saturn Is A Tea
Infychu
This pipe story is a kid talking to a corpse, isn't it?
fae bells
oh Nier reference actually
fae bells
er og
Infychu
My eye is too irritated to keep the other one open much, hopefully I'm not missing TOO much by just listening and not watching too.
Infychu
"This thing is weird, let's kill it." That's some kind of problem solving skills you got there, buddy.....
Infychu
9S, you met machine SIBLINGS. Why are you still questioning their ability to feel loyalty? They can understand familial love, I think loyalty is kind of inherent in that already.
fae bells
Reasons
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
9S is really torn throughout the game, he'll waffle on "KILL THEM" and "NO DON"T" a lot
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
stupid adorable cinnamon roll
Infychu
/smushes his cute dumb face
Infychu
STAB THE BABY
Infychu
The king is a baby, right? Or is it just football shaped?
Infychu
A2 is hot, she's probably gonna seduce them into Chaotic Good territory, isn't she?
ღ zipper noises
Infychu
2B has two hands to pet with. Let her pet both pods at once~
Infychu
6O is cute~
Infychu
Brain scan? You're a creeper, Emile.
Infychu
"I see" MAY not be the optimal response to someone sharing emotional stuff with you, 2B. Just saying.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
Emil is baby, perfect baby
Infychu
Multiple millenia old baby, apparently.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
ehhhhh 9,000 or so
Infychu
Just a blink of an eye~
skelefriend
he baby, ye
Infychu
And now he shows up without even being contacted. Forgedt just a brain scan, did he wiretap 2B's brain? Plant a bug or something to better stalk her?
Infychu
The end of that quest seems like it's sad and significant, but I don't really get it TBH. Probably needed to see the other game first.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
lunar tear quest?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
kkkkind of yeah, but the other quests involving Emil reveal a bit more.
Infychu
Yup
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
Infychu
/pats
Infychu
6O is far too gay to function
Infychu
Useless lesbian confirmed
fae bells
iirc all androids with the 6 personality type are Useless Lesbians
fae bells
we only meet 6O but I think that's Word of God or supplemental material
Infychu
Pffffft I didn't realize that the numbers are personality types
Infychu
Also holy shit, this lady. That's SAVAGE.
fae bells
yup!
fae bells
also which lady
Infychu
The wandering couple one that kept reformatting her hubby and deleting personality traits she didn't like.
fae bells
OH YEAH
Infychu
GASP a megane
Infychu
DO NOT. You don't want to be human in all facets, we kind of suck.
Infychu
Is this one Adam or Eve? I'm impressed they figured out pants AND shirts and everything.
Infychu
Spooky scary cult factory~
fae bells
long hair + glasses is Adam
fae bells
short hair is Eve
Infychu
Ooh, okay
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
this cannot continue
Infychu
Becoming gods cannot continue
Infychu
Ooh, Eve is BIG mad. Didn't you realize big bro wanted to fight to the death?
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
Eve gets even more mad lol
fae bells
also if you know FF15: Eve is Ray Chase aka Noct
Infychu
Oh nice~
Infychu
That looks way too suggestive for being so sad.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
which part?
fae bells
"suggestive but sad" is also kinda Yoko Taro's thing
Old Wolf Winter
everything I know of nier: a tells me yes, "suggestive but sad" is yoko taro's comfort zone
Old Wolf Winter
with maybe a dash of "suggestive but murderous"
Infychu
The laying on top of 9S making sex sounds while crying and strangling him to death part.
fae bells
yeah that's a Thing
Old Wolf Winter
oh hey all three
Infychu
Yup, got the full trifecta
Infychu
Well, that's route A.
skelefriend
yep
Infychu
/slides back in here for lunch break
Infychu
Why is hacking like this? What's the explanation for this metaphorical blasting shit = compromising someone's system?
fae bells
"it's better than trying to make you do code puzzles" would be my guess
Old Wolf Winter
I gave up on thinking too hard partway through the game and just started assuming the answers were "because yoko taro wanted it"
Infychu
Fair enough (LOL)
Infychu
And back to work I go
skelefriend
"because yoko taro likes shooters within other genres of games" is really the best explanation for why hacking
Infychu
I did notice that (thinking)
skelefriend
very specifically, bullet hell games
Infychu
Ughhhhh my eye hurts again tonight /settles in to listen to combat since tags are probably a no go
Infychu
Oh no?? Opera machine is sad.....
Infychu
Eve is right. Why DO we have to wear these undergarments? pantslessrevolution
Infychu
/yeets these oppressive clothes for great justice
Infychu
"Do I HAVE to wear pants?" "YES. We're confronting the people who killed me before. We have to look presentable." "Fiiiiiiiiiine."
fae bells
that is totally how that conversation went
Old Wolf Winter
XDDD
Infychu
But DAAAAAAAAD big broooooooooo
Infychu
So uh, this dude just fuckin murdered Adam before his monologue finished. Did I miss special cutscene shit since this is route B?
fae bells
I don't think so no
Infychu
Excellent
Infychu
Little Red Riding Hood: Who wants to talk about MURDER?
ღ zipper noises
Infychu
Muuuuuurdeeeeeeeeer~
Infychu
9S: Ah yes, Jean-Paul. That fucking fucker.
Infychu
Knights: We must raise this tiny baby with our king's memories.
King: Uh, y. You know. You DO know that we're machines right? We don't physically grow. Just mentally. I'm gonna be a fucking tiny ass helpless metal egg for actual literal centuries. You can't find me a different body? FUCK EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
XD
Infychu
Knights: Gee, he's still small. Didn't see that one coming.
King: I swear to god I'm going to kill every single one of you with the sheer force of all my rage condensed into such a tiny space.
Knights: How could we ever have foreseen this might be a problem?? Sure is a shame memories aren't plug n' play, or we could just take them back out and put them in
Infychu
another body, just like we did earlier.
ღ zipper noises
snrk
skelefriend
I love that they're at least self-aware enough to know that there's definitely a solution but they're too stupid to think of it, hahaha
Infychu
Right? (LOL)
Infychu
I'm so glad I called the issue before the next flashback came up too.
skelefriend
they dumb, but they try
Infychu
They're good dumb robutt babbies doing their best
Infychu
Dude why are you attempting to adopt a corpse?
Infychu
/flops into lunch break
Infychu
So from their perspective isn't this like, legitimately just finding severed arms and handfuls of guts in a bunch of boxes? And then smashing these corpse bits together to unlock a door? What the fuck.
Infychu
Okay, the king sounds cool, but uh. Howmst the fuck does giving people random body parts help them become sentient and gain their own free will?
Infychu
"Here, I'm giving you a kidney. BE REBORN!1111"
fae bells
he tried
Infychu
And also why didn't they just? Replace? His parts??
Infychu
Don't just let your king fucking GUT himself without repairing him, JFC.
Infychu
I know this is tragic and touching but like. USE THE PHOENIX DOWN ON AERITH.
Infychu
Why is Father Servo's dick also a head?
Infychu
I SEE EYES
Infychu
Emil: /races back and forth in the background of a serious bit 23487 times in a minute, screaming incoherently
Me:
Infychu
Eve is so cute WTF
Infychu
Second exchange with the pods, I could ship it. B|bb
Infychu
9S: No! You're wrong! YOU'RE NOT ME!
Souji and all the other P4 kids: FUCK--
Infychu
So what's 9S' Shadow and dungeon?
Infychu
Or Persona and arcana, for that matter?
ღ zipper noises
wheezes
Infychu
Pffffft what excellent lyrics
Infychu
Yeah, I kinda figured SOME sort of shenanigans were going on with humanity.
Infychu
Time for more sad sexy strangling.
Infychu
Now with bonus ghost voyeurism.
Old Wolf Winter
nier:a is a hell of a game innit
Infychu
Yup~
Infychu
Glory to Route C, I guess?
Infychu
11S? Is this a new character, or just a random background droid?
Infychu
Ugh, this virus effect stuff is painful to watch /squints
Infychu
9S, you're not Eve, you're not supposed to be shrieking incoherently and flinging yourself at people.
Old Wolf Winter
imagine it while actually trying to control the character
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
11s is a background character
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
he's no important reallly
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
there's a... 4S? I think? in route c
Infychu
4S? Are they around substantially, or just another throwaway thing?
ღ zipper noises
just part of a sidequest
Infychu
Aha~
Infychu
Dat sexy leg taunt tho
Infychu
So why is she A2 and not 2A?
Infychu
WTF kind of sadistic android developer created the death rattle chip?
fae bells
idk if it gets explained in the game, do you want an explanation of A2's name?
Infychu
Sure, go for it
fae bells
she's an early gen model, "Attacker No. 2", which is why she has the berserk mode and the other two don't
fae bells
her model was considered too dangerous/a failure iirc, so she's the only one of her model left
fae bells
Attacker (and the also obsolete Gunner) became Battle, or Type B
Infychu
Huh. So the obsolete ones get the letter first. (thinking) Were the Gunners too dangerous because of berserking too?
Infychu
9S looks like a GIGANTIC hipster with those glasses.
𝕻𝖍𝖆𝖓𝖙𝖔𝖒 𝕳𝖎𝖛𝖊
9S is adorable
Infychu
He is
Infychu
WTF is this poor self-detonating door guard guarding?
