I really want to play NieR: Automata first before I jump into NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139..., especially after I saw NieR:Automata Ver1.1a last July.

It looks good so far! can you play Replicant without playing Automata first? I still didn't have the chance to play it, and I think Replicant is the prequel but I don't want to spoil myself anything.

Replicant is the first game, you should play that before Automata

Haven’t played Replicant yet but the original Nier is fantastic. If you liked Automata you’ll like the original Nier. The world is just as dark and depressing and music is just as great, if not better.

 

 

 

Funny enough, I have the original Nier and Drakengard 3 for that matter on PS3. The reason I haven't gotten around to either of them....is because...backlog (and work). Lol. Heard really good things about both both games, and....I am totally in it for the plot; yep, the plot.

Yes, you can and you won't spoil anything for yourself. While the timeline is a bit all over the place, playing Automata will not spoil anything.

Hoping for some good PS1 classics.

 

Same, considering the PS+ price hike. It would be interesting what Classics come our way (if any) here in the next few months.

Well, I guess it's time to get that Star Ocean 6 plat. It was kind of sad not seeing it in the collection.

Definitely; and you probably should.

 

This version of Replicant also has exclusive content that was not in the original game, but instead in the novelization of it. That ending has deeper ties to Automata, and will contextualize the sequel more.

Drakengard 3 on PS3.

That game deserves a second chance. I wish it got remastered or something. 🤞

Thanks.

 

I usually play games by release order, not story order - although I'm well aware that NieR Replicant is the remake of the original NieR, which was launched in 2010. 😅

[ConAir]

Unpacking and Nier are nice. And that's probably all I have time for...😆 (while I work on PS3/PSVita titles as well)

[Intoner_Zero]

I've been wanting to play 13 Sentinels for a while, so hope it's true. Maybe pick up Star Ocean...

The price increase is justified with this lineup? No of course not, they really need to drop a bomb in the next State of Play

 

They will not bother to drop some good games per the Premium tier, I'm pretty sure about that

 

 

 

GUDGER666 is that you? 

 

[Dangisuckatgamin]

Not much for me this month that I'm excited for. But I will try most of them.

[Moridin83]

Everyone should at least try 13 Sentinels. It's an amazing game. Glad to get Star Ocen, and interested in unpacking. We'll have to see what else comes out, but a good looking month so far.

[Shorah-]

Might be in the minority but i played Unpacking at launch on Gamepass because of the hype and man i was disappointed.

One of the most overrated game i've played... but yeah... it checks all the requirements for the wannabe gaming journalist. Easy, short, indie, make them look smart when they wrote their review/essay about environmental storytelling.

Its not false that the game tries something on the narrative side, but the actual gameplay routine is so bad.

 

I read good things about Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2. Anyone would recommend it ?

as someone who really enjoyed Automata, how will I find Replicant? I only ask because it is a much older game (now ported) and how similar is combat, music, story beats etc

It is similar as in it's clearly Nier, but it definitely feels way more dated/worse in every aspect. I've played Automata first and then Replicant, and I constantly had a feeling during my time with Replicant that I would've enjoyed it more if I haven't played Automata first. Still a good game though.

Automata hits hard enough to spoil you, if played first. 

 

[Jelly Soup]

Unpacking is good. I did it on PC Gamepass whatever they call it. Playing it with a controller, however, sounds obnoxious.

[CosmoWolf_]

good god the Nier Replicant trophy list looks like a pain. Trying to wrap my head around all the playthroughs you have to do. I hate speedruns, this Nier game has like 5 endings and I am supposed to skip cutscenes...

might just play it normally and not plat

I miss him 😅

I really want to know why he left so suddenly, he was part of this strange community 

[Maxie_M0us3]

I’m more interested about the next PS1 or PSP classics being ported over.

The speedrun is one of the easiest, it's done in half the required time. Only the moon flower takes a few days with timezones manipulating.

Cut the act GUDGER666, and let the italian guy go. We need him to update the PS+ games list.

I took a peek at how to grab the trophy, yet I'm still confused. 🤔

Me too, the only reason I got premium after all

It's really not that complicated, once you start working on it you'll get the hang of it.

[whodeygamer]

To anyone who hasn’t played 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim, you owe it to yourself to play that masterpiece! I wasn’t expecting the story to be as gripping as it was.

[OutcastGuy50]

Do I need to spend another $400.00cdn to just upgrade to PS extra and I'm on prenuim that allowed me to play only PS4 and PS5 games?

If you're on premium then you're already on the highest tier and have access to everything
