Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with Nier: Automata's excellent gameplay, compelling story, and memorable music. Many also praised the game's action sequences and high replay value, though some found the difficulty and map design challenging. A few players noted issues with the camera and lack of an auto-save feature. Overall, the positive feedback on core gameplay elements outweighs the concerns regarding specific aspects of the game's design.

    Love this game, it runs well over the PS4, I would like to get a 4K editon of it, design of characters and the story of the game are unique, the soundtrack is one of the best I have ever heard, english dub sounds great but I would like to check the game in japanese.

    The story, environment, music, controls are all great. The game can be a bit difficult at first but once you get the hang of the combat its all fun from there.

    I just recently learned that this game has a ton of endings, with five main ones. An actual, legitimate reason to play a game more than once. So far I've clocked about ten hours into the game, and it's kept me on my toes. Even on Normal difficulty, it's a good challenge. The story is intriguing so far, the fighting is simplistic, but fun, and the different weapons give a nice variety in fighting styles. Overall, a great game that has me going back for more. It has style, fast paced action, a compelling story, and a reason to keep playing once you've finished it. A must buy.

    Waited too long to play this. While the environments are kind of ugly everything else shines. Make sure to do all three playthroughs. It's not the same game each time. In fact you completely miss the story by not doing the third playthrough.

    I like the action and live combat but some of the minor smaller enemies get too repetitive but the android based story is entertaining. I recommend trying the demo first and if you like the demo and the boss fights in the demo then you will most definitely like the full game too.

    This game is fairly long especially if you're going for the platinum, so on that front it's worth the price, but the game excels most in game-play and artistic merit. The voice acting is superb and all the characters feel unique. The story will definitely get you invested, especially when coupled with the soundtrack, which is excellently composed and would stand strong by itself. This Game goes back to the artistic roots of the medium brimming with passion expertly crafted by the games creators. If you have the chance to get this game you will not regret it.

    I'd heard plenty of good things about this game when it came out, but I didn't pull the trigger on it til recently, and I'm glad I did. It's tough to explain Nier: Automata, but if I had to, it's genre-bending. It has... -The guns, combos, and speed of action games like Bayonetta or Devil May Cry -The bullet hellstorm of something like Contra or Duke Nukem -The ability to level your character and cast spells like in Final Fantasy It's a very tough thing to explain, but stop waiting! Buy this for yourself and you'll see what I mean!

    Nier Automata is another demonstration of the top quality product delivery and storytelling of Square Enix. The control system, while requiring some getting used to on the part of the player swiftly becomes seamless and allows the player to merge into the environment of the game. And it is the environment of Nier Automata that commands the attention of the player. The setting is one of the most powerful elements of storytelling and Nier Automata uses this tool to the greatest effect possible. The atmosphere is beautiful, the bosses are appealing and the characters are all unique and enjoyable. For anyone who liked the other works of Square Enix or anyone who is looking for an enjoyable game and artful experience I would definitely recommend this game.

    If your looking for a game with deep mechanics and a well told story that doesn't hold your hand this is for you. I advise to playing through the game at least 3 times due to the various endings and storyline changes.
