It felt organic (ha, that’s an android joke), not shoehorned in. On one hand, we all find comfort in the familiar, and it certainly wasn’t a forced twist. It’s hard to say whether that makes the player experience more or less impactful, and also whether it hurts or helps the narrative to have the same kind of Shyamalan-esque twist in both games. I didn’t have all the details right, but the broad strokes are fairly predictable. Knowing what I know of the first game, I had been waiting for this reveal the whole time, as it had ended with a similar, world-shattering twist. By the end, you’ll learn every word is either misleading or blatantly false. That’s the story you’re given when the game opens.

Just some robots accepting missions while standing around with exposed underwear. Your mission as combat unit 2B and scanning unit 9S is to meet an android Resistance representative and find out what you can about strange machine behavior. A defense program called YorHa was launched, employing androids stationed on orbiting satellites to fight the machine lifeforms created by the aliens, who still control the planet. An alien invasion has forced humanity to retreat to a base on the moon, where they’ve been hiding for centuries.

Nier: Automata is an extremely solid spectacle fighter set in the distant future. The direct references to the first game, and the continuation and possible conclusion of Emil’s story in particular, have a lot more impact if you started their journey with them. I’m gonna slap a big, fat disclaimer on this before we get too deep if you didn’t play and complete the first game – we’re talking multiple endings here – you will probably get less out of this game than I did.
