@@flashmozzg Those were legit androids. And 9S was talking about the 2B models and not the androids he fought on the way up the tower. Even ignoring that, the fact that 9S was able to push back A2 despite being infected with 85% of the logic virus is a much more impressive feat than the flight units or the 2B models he fought.
This section of the game had me playing with my mouth open, the music, the way you switch between A2 and 9S during the Ko-shi and Ro-shi boss fights. 9S slowly going insane each second, absolutely extraordinary.
This place was such a blast to go through. Between the epic fights, the story realizations, the incredible music, and that throwback to the first Nier I wont be forgetting how much fun this final dungeon was for a long time and that just marks how amazing this game is. Btw I honestly thought I was fighting the same machine during the climb up the tower, lol.
right goes to show how awsome those transitions where in that fight. Elevator goes screen left 9s enters screen right in the flight unit camara pan to fog and back down to a2,pushs the monster back the other one appers from the bottom.@@exlon_xiv
My god the VA for 9S did a fantastic job with him! Just the way he portrayed all these emotions he felt and the way his voice changed a bit as 9S slowly lost his sanity was just AAAAAAAAAAHHH
12:07 Yoko Taro really has a thing for insane characters that lose/rip off arms. 28:13 aaand also for creppy little girls dressed in red that talk with the voice of a grown man.
If a hologram of Popola had been sitting there i would have flipped my shit. Played ending C/D so many times over. Best ending of any game i have ever played and i thought The Last of Us was it.... then i stepped into the Taroverse beginning with Drakengard to Automata and life was never the same.
This whole segment was a gotdamn rollercoaster, and the throwback to the library (and its ceiling being broken again lfmao) murdered me inside about as much as Popola and Devola's backstory. What a fantastic game, I definitely see what you mean by Shadowlord Castle vibes B)
Yoko Taro is a genius I realized after playing this. Also loved how he gave Keiichi Okabe one of the top credits for the game. It just goes to make the emotional moments more powerful and heartbreaking. Hell I’d say the soundtrack could even beat out some Oscar winning compositions
Oh! A constant transition between 9S and A2 while thry climb the tower, from the hack and slash to the danmaku very often. Oh Yoko Taro! You make me more and more pelased with your work as the game goes on
Well, I think Platinum Games should get some of the credit for managing to make a more coherent mix of these gameplay genres. The transitions between action RPG, shoot 'em up, kinetic novel, and story cutscenes would be excessively jarring when used by people who have no idea what they're doing. They know their craft well. Yoko Taro knew what he wanted when he tested things out back in Gestalt. Platinum delivered just that.
Man, this was by far the best boss fight in the game (and close to being the best one in general) The build up is insane, and it starts from the moment 2B dies, with the switches between A2 and 9S slowly getting quicker, first being weeks between them, then days, hours, minutes and then seconds during the fight itself And bipolar nightmare is such a good OST too
A fair number of significant events (and _battles)_ involve that library and that central door in the first Nier. Plus one of the rooms practically _replicates_ Devola's and Popola's office/study in the first Nier.
I know Im 3 years late, but I just finished the game over Xmas break and wow.... I played every major 2017 game... NieR automata was the pinnacle of the year
Ohh theres more connections than just that in these two. This shit was so chilling having gone through each entry thus far, Taro-san is a genius. Truly mean that.
"Someone...this hole...fill in this hole..." So simple yet one of my favorite lines in the game. Yoko Taro really struck gold when he came up with the idea of the machine network.
Yeah, they're a combination of all the machine lifeform consciousnesses controlling two bodies. People from the village, the religious cult, and anywhere else they inhabited.
I felt that it was supposed to be a homage to Yonah, just with longer hair. But yeah, the red must be either a Manah (Drakengard 1) or a One (Drakengard 3) reference.
@@novikovPrinciple still kinda confused on that. Is there supposed to be a direct connection between the characters or is it simply a fun Easter egg nod back to drakengard
10:34 is a record of a character from the first game, I wonder how the character survived that long. Also 9s needs to start putting trackers on his arm, he keeps losing them.
Finally...9S perfected his landing strategy. annnd we have Pod sass and A2. But seriously, this is all hitting me in the feels. 2B models, and the library...Oh, and Devola and Popula. T^T 9s steadily losing his insanity. But those girls in red creep me out.
I thought I was the only one who noticed that before this fight he had horrible landings dropping out of the flight units. Too bad he perfects when nothing really matters to him anymore ;_;
It's funny how 9S wants to kill A2 but he follows A2 everywhere when he joined the party. Gdi i know it's programmed or the system because party member always follow the main leader but this is just funny to me
I kinda get why too. He may also wanna follow her because he literally can't be the shit out of her without the robot interfering. (you thought it was a Jojoke, but it was I, 9S!)
He didn't have a choice but to team up, but yeah, it is pretty ironic that in the end, they make for an incredible team (maybe even moreso than when he was paired up with 2b). After all, they'd been unknowingly fighting together throughout route C, so the tag team against Koshi and Roshi was the culmination of that.
i'm a bit curious about a thing : humanity manages to reach singularity as we see self sustaining evolving androids , but they haven't yet sequenced the human dna to basically recreate humanity ?
Seems like both androids and machine lifeforms struggle a lot when it comes to organic creatures though. This is shown in the sidequest with the animal loving machine when 2B and 9S needed to make medicine for a sick moose, and both parties were exceedingly puzzled despite how simple it all is. It would almost be akin to trying to understand how aliens works. If they struggle with making a simple cure for a moose, I daresay that making a human clone, let alone several that promote gene diversity to repopulate the human race would be quite beyond them. MAYBE Adam would've eventually researched a way given his desire to understand humans and how they tick, but well... he did die off relatively early, all things considered.
I bought this game completely on a whim without knowing what I was getting in to. 2017 made the best decision ever. This is one of my favourite sequences I've played. Everything just flows so well, especially the switching in the Ko-shi Ro-shi fights. The soundtrack pans depending on who you're playing as and ahhh it's so technically impressive and so gooood
Pretty neat that they brought back a bunch of old locales in the tower. If 9S wasn't already nutso before, he certainly is now. Should be interesting to see what happens next
Sort of funny how the AI of the tower acts similarly to the Watchers in Drakengard... Creepy dual voices, little girls in red... Btw, I could've sworn I heard the term Yorha before... Was it more on Nier's daughter...
"They're acting like humans, fighting over conflicting views of how they should collectively progress as people... Gee, this really says a lot about society"
They already do it because in one of the old games there is a YoRha Androit from the future name Acor.....Yoko Taro is a damn genius or he is complete crazy
The fight against the flight units on the hardest difficulty is by far the most difficult thing I've ever completed. Doing this fight without taking a single hit is absolute hell. Especially since you always restart at the library and if you die in the short encounter after it you still get sent back to the library.
Something I heard about this area the music in the Tower is a remix of Shadowlord's Castle. Is the music in the library replica a remix of the original library theme?
I love 18:53 like HOLY SHIT the best part of the music comes up and the game gets aggressive af xDD anyways can someone explain what is this shadowlord castle everyone keeps talking about? No spoilers pls :(
"combat isn't my forte!"
*destroys five flight units*
They were not legit androids though. Just imitations/dummies. 9S even notes how weak they were in the Novel.
F N and takes on 10 2B units ALL ON HIS OWN!! 9S is a beast lol
@@flashmozzg Those were legit androids. And 9S was talking about the 2B models and not the androids he fought on the way up the tower.

Yeah, I've read "flight" as "fight.
Combat isn't my forte means he is not made to combat but he can still combat very good
"they're acting like humans."
I got chills when i heard that line.
I chuckled a bit, I mean aren't they?
@Cas 28:18
@@restfulori212 Still they are acting like humans. Its kind of all over the story that the robots try to mimic the humans behaivior
I love 9S' fall into insanity. And I love his VA. The way his voice changes when he fights the 2B models is great.
It makes you so incredibly sad. ;_; I just wanted to give him a tight hug.
remixofdestiny yes
If the novellas are to be believed, he's not falling into insanity- he's simply reverting back to his prototype.
I love him
"9s you arent suited for combat "
me: -_-
To be fair he was getting his ass handed to him quite a bit. There were multiple instances he couldve died had he not had any healing 😅
@@2-dsynctium773 i call that skill issue
Holy shit these interachanging bosses with dynamic soundtrack are one of the best fights I ever saw in videogames.
MrGrizzzlik this soundtrack can litterally revive a dead guy its so much epic
This section of the game had me playing with my mouth open, the music, the way you switch between A2 and 9S during the Ko-shi and Ro-shi boss fights. 9S slowly going insane each second, absolutely extraordinary.
I feel bad for 9S, seeing him fall apart
Unkown Crackenstyle
And now 9S has Sanity loss.
Crackenstyle me too
Installing a malware hand didn't helped at all.
Doesn't matter what model you are. If you REALLY wanted someone dead, even a scanner can take down an executioner.
Nah 9S is just special like that
@@GuyWithAGreatsword who tf is 8S
@@thevoyagerv4499I meant to say 9S
Can I just say how much I love 9s's development?
Rey Marx I think you mean his deterioration
Justin Fluellen the unraveling of someone's mental state IS considered development in yoko taro games lol
He's mental heal probably cured after ending E, since he reunited with 2B after all.
Can we appreciate the fact that he's gone murder-happy to the point of slaughtering 5 flight units by himself?
@@BigBoss-gb4cx nah lol new ending in FFXIV, he keeps trying to kill 2B models that aren't corrupted

Yeah, definitely fits as the "final dungeon" kind of deal, like I said lots of Shadowlord castle vibes :p
The Shi Bros were out to get me lol
Same about the machines, I was so confused.

voice acting is really really good in the game
Japan better, american don't have personality
can we all agree that the real hero is that pod that managed to mind fuck a computer god.
It was kinda weird, really lol. You would think that a literal *god* AI wouldn't fall for a simple "lol logic, checkmate" kind of trick.
Machines and logic puzzles never mix XD
12:07 Yoko Taro really has a thing for insane characters that lose/rip off arms.
28:13 aaand also for creppy little girls dressed in red that talk with the voice of a grown man.
SILENCE
you cannot kill me
for iam loved
loved by them
more than anyone else.
you make a reference to Zero about the arm? aren't you?
Also that one guy from the original nier
Oh the library......
What a nostalgic place...
Mr Chio when I saw the library in this game it gives me goosebumps.
If a hologram of Popola had been sitting there i would have flipped my shit.
Played ending C/D so many times over. Best ending of any game i have ever played and i thought The Last of Us was it....
then i stepped into the Taroverse beginning with Drakengard to Automata and life was never the same.
This whole segment was a gotdamn rollercoaster, and the throwback to the library (and its ceiling being broken again lfmao) murdered me inside about as much as Popola and Devola's backstory.
What a fantastic game, I definitely see what you mean by Shadowlord Castle vibes B)
Yoko Taro is a genius I realized after playing this. Also loved how he gave Keiichi Okabe one of the top credits for the game. It just goes to make the emotional moments more powerful and heartbreaking. Hell I’d say the soundtrack could even beat out some Oscar winning compositions
You mean all of the Oscar winning compositions.
Oh! A constant transition between 9S and A2 while thry climb the tower, from the hack and slash to the danmaku very often.
Oh Yoko Taro! You make me more and more pelased with your work as the game goes on

Zero The Bloodedge true he made a masterpiece this game is a unique piece of art
Definitely credit to platinum games... Alot of their past games in there ...amazing
24:32 Pod! This isn't the time to start sassing A2 again!
Actually scratch that. This pod is nothing but sass!
Proposal: Unit A2 should embrace the sass~
:p
omegaevolution Affirmative. 😄
Pod called A2 stupid, what a legend
It's funny too because as they become more sentient, they become more sassy.
Man, this was by far the best boss fight in the game (and close to being the best one in general)
The build up is insane, and it starts from the moment 2B dies, with the switches between A2 and 9S slowly getting quicker, first being weeks between them, then days, hours, minutes and then seconds during the fight itself
And bipolar nightmare is such a good OST too
16:32 The face of the one who see the truth and those who have played Nier.
Ah shit, Ardyn's back.
The wide focal length caught me lmao
One of the best final acts in all of gaming
When that door opened at 7:10, I recognized the place and went, "Ohho-hooooooa~ yes"
indeed, it was nice to see that place after so long :p
A fair number of significant events (and _battles)_ involve that library and that central door in the first Nier.
Plus one of the rooms practically _replicates_ Devola's and Popola's office/study in the first Nier.
Kaine was killed and resurrected here.
Also that OST, daaamn the memories
Agreed.
For me this is game of the year.
I am 100000% agree whit you
The game of the year, the next year, and the next after that
I know Im 3 years late, but I just finished the game over Xmas break and wow.... I played every major 2017 game... NieR automata was the pinnacle of the year
for me its the game of my life
Game of the YorHa 😎😎😎
9S has that Caim smile down it seems...
He also fits the Inuart profile too
The entire downward spiral. Shits so deep
Oh my god, when "Bipolar Nightmare" starts...
Good god, help me... it's SO GOOD!
i love seeing 30:30 is one of the most reproduced scenes, im not the only one in love with this transition oml
Taro must think humans are really shit
well we are to be honest
I agree whit Yoko Taro
Well, he’s right.
yup,he is right
Too edgy for me.
Oh god he became Eve, it must've started when he hacked Eve and culminated when 2B died
It isn't you dumbass!!
"Acting like kaine"
“I’ll tear you apart...every last one of you!”
Anyone who comes back to watch this that’s played FE: Three Houses knows.
Yeah lol, fuck Dimitri
'KILL EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM!'
Funny cuz I played Three Houses before this so I kept getting Dimitri parallels after 9S went mad
A2's 'oh, what the hell,..'
i love it :3
The transitions between Ko-shi and Ro-shi are just too beautiful
Call it a coincidence
Ko-Shi & Ro-Shi's color match the color of Grimoire Weiss And Noir
I mean the color of white and black
Station Orsari what if the voice of the tower's AI after 9S's passage is the fusion of the voices of Weiss and Noir huh?
Call it a coincidence as well
Both 9s and Zero lost the left arm
On top of that, they are the colors of the Yinyang symbol, which fits considering Ko-Shi and Ro-Shi refer to Confucius and Laozi.
Ohh theres more connections than just that in these two. This shit was so chilling having gone through each entry thus far, Taro-san is a genius. Truly mean that.
The transition between A2 fighting on the ground and 9S fighting on the air is so superbly executed
"Someone...this hole...fill in this hole..."
So simple yet one of my favorite lines in the game. Yoko Taro really struck gold when he came up with the idea of the machine network.
I love the library being brought back from NieR itself. Such a wonderful memory, and the music of Devola and Popola playing in the background.
Here you can see that Ko-Shi and Ro-Shi are more than just weapons. They're the vessels for all of the dreams of Machine-kind.
Yeah, they're a combination of all the machine lifeform consciousnesses controlling two bodies. People from the village, the religious cult, and anywhere else they inhabited.
4:15 - That robot has some Street Fighter moves :v
He'd fit perfectly in Third Strike
This VA was putting his heart and soul into this fucking role. Pure art.
its amazing how this game touches me so deeply, almost spiritually.
And yet it's nothing but an android graveyard
Wait, when A2 got hacked......
All those girls dressed in red, is that Manah from Drakengard 1????
I felt that it was supposed to be a homage to Yonah, just with longer hair.
But yeah, the red must be either a Manah (Drakengard 1) or a One (Drakengard 3) reference.
And yet we all forget The Watchers.
Rise of the Empire.
The Church of Magic.
Theres so much shit within all of this its nuts.
@@novikovPrinciple still kinda confused on that. Is there supposed to be a direct connection between the characters or is it simply a fun Easter egg nod back to drakengard

oh and thanks, omega!!.
10:34 is a record of a character from the first game, I wonder how the character survived that long. Also 9s needs to start putting trackers on his arm, he keeps losing them.
9S's VA is literally unparalleled

Ultrapyre I don't know. There is no human soul left due to all that coloration syndrome, shade, and before God judgement shit..
Jinwen Hui You do know that there human genetic material on the moon server right?
Knower of truth I think what they have is Gestalt genome? But even if they make replicants now, there are no gestalts left to fill in the replicants
Jinwen Hui If they use the gestault dna it should be ablr to make a living human.
I'm getting a Shadowlord's Castle/Cathedral City vibe from this place.....
*raises my hand

This was one of the most epic boss fights I've played from any game. so sick how it kept transitioning between the two made it all the more dramatic
The Ro-shi and Ko-shi boss fight is probably my favorite. Kinda hard to choose, honestly.
Genindraz same
Genindraz yeah because your playing as two playable characters at the same time
Pretty neat that they brought back a bunch of old locales in the tower. If 9S wasn't already nutso before, he certainly is now. Should be interesting to see what happens next
i just didn't know how i passed this boss while my eyes it's full of tears, truly
28:13 ...dat face... goddammit that's creepy as hell! XD'
reminds me of aphex twin videos
Caim says hi
When you finally find that last piece of cake your siblings hid from you
Just finished this game, after finally starting it up from my backlog. A true masterpiece!
Sort of funny how the AI of the tower acts similarly to the Watchers in Drakengard... Creepy dual voices, little girls in red...
Btw, I could've sworn I heard the term Yorha before... Was it more on Nier's daughter...
Nier's daughter is Yonah.
When the girls in red duplicate with some blue lightning coming out, they reminded me of those flying demon babies from D1
What the hell!!
This is an amazing battle
That hacking part reminded me of YHVH on SMTA
not even showing what comes after the fight, it should be a crime to cliffhang like that xD
"They're acting like humans, fighting over conflicting views of how they should collectively progress as people...
Gee, this really says a lot about society"
Dude I have been watching videos about Nier and drakengard for the last week. And I haven’t even gotten into the franchise but I might buy this today
Man, the tower was AMAZING, I loved every second of it.
Man this was sooo epic. I really hope they make another Nier game in the near future.
Darkborne Lines The NIER future!
Andrew Rogers oh no...that joke...
Darkborne Lines me too
They already do it because in one of the old games there is a YoRha Androit from the future name Acor.....Yoko Taro is a damn genius or he is complete crazy
it's not a completely new title but they're remastering nier replicant soon
Poor 9S, he's been through a lot...
The NieR Automata are my favorite characters in my fiction even all these years later
Holy crap. I just realized that 13:17 is indeed 9S's internal, but you see other parts of it as well like he's already with the machine network.
masterpiece
Yes! Yes 9S, my little cinnamon bun! Fall! Fall further into insanity! >:D
If 9S see this, he is gonna be very mad
2-B and 9-S:"We finally defeated them!"
40:34 Koshi-Roshi "HOLD... OUR BEERS."
2B?
Did you even play the game?
I LOVE this soundtrack. This fucked Game is amazing
16:55 like this voice and sentence.
I didn't notice on my run so many different versions of "Song of the Ancients" used in this area
The fight against the flight units on the hardest difficulty is by far the most difficult thing I've ever completed. Doing this fight without taking a single hit is absolute hell. Especially since you always restart at the library and if you die in the short encounter after it you still get sent back to the library.
Geez the 2B clones fight :'(
Yoko Taro doesn't just stab a knife in your heart like he's checking what's inside.
_He twists it around and yanks it out from the other side_ .
Wait if 9s could destroy like what 8 2B models does that mean he's stronger than her?
9s: Combat isn't my forte
Me: Well, what did we just witness? :D
Oh. My. God. I’m playing Nier Replicant and the library at 7:52 is the same. Holy crap
Okay either it's just the music or this is the library from nier
slim yeah it's it!
I am so lost and I love it
That pod downloaded Piccolo's core logic: dodge.
I never played the first. but after finishing this game! I need to play the first
troy but trust me, this is better..
Replicant is good but Automata is definitely the better game
This fight remembers about the last time when Anakin and Kenobi fight for the last time together against a lava beast on Mustafar in the concept art.
The day 9S became a man. With some amazing character development aswell.
This game has been one big mind fuck, fantastic game
Goosebumps Goosebumps Goosebumps
God poor 9s aghgdthipjft like omg that dude loved 2B more than anything but yet he also hates her like daaaaamnnn ouchhhh
This is what epicness in games should 2B!
The library 😭
This just hurts so much ;_;
If this was a anime I would definitely watch it
Good news?
so when 2 bosses combied it become 'koroshi' if i right it's mean kill in japanese
Something I heard about this area the music in the Tower is a remix of Shadowlord's Castle. Is the music in the library replica a remix of the original library theme?
I just realize, that 9S have a Same weapon like eve from elsword
Watching 9S decline hurts my soul 😢
I love 18:53 like HOLY SHIT the best part of the music comes up and the game gets aggressive af xDD anyways can someone explain what is this shadowlord castle everyone keeps talking about? No spoilers pls :(
after 40 hours i thought i've seen everything then this shit happens
good stuff
