Analysis of NieR Automata Become As Gods for Xbox One
Nier Automata Become As Gods arrives at Xbox One just two weeks after its announcement. A cult J-RPG developed by Square-Enix and Platinum Games, which surprised by its great development, an unexpected plot and great characters.
Nier Automata It was one of the big surprises of last year for PS4 and PC. It was a "complicated" work in many ways. First of all by an approach of J-RPG Traditional, which was alternated with a very innovative combat system: both melee and shooting mechanics in the style of a "twin stick shooter". It was also the sequel to a cult game signed by Yoko Taro that he had not been very successful in sales, and supposed the union of efforts of two legendary companies as Square-Enix and Platinum Games (responsible for Bayonetta or Vanquish).
Despite the difficulties involved, the result was impeccable. Here you can read our Analysis of Nier Automata for PS4 . Over time, it has become one of the most iconic role-playing games of the generation, both for its main characters - the androids 2B and 9S - as per your argument; that begins with an assault on Earth, in a future in which robots (led by an extraterrestrial entity) have almost annihilated humanity, and we must recover it from a base on the Moon, known as the Bunker.
Role and action in a desolate world
The members of YoHRa (the protagonist couple) face exploration parties through desolate and minimalist scenarios, skills improvement through chips, epic battles against giant creatures - starting with the Goliath that appears in the first minutes of the game - and action sequences in that the camera is blocked as if it were a game in horizontal development 2.5 D or a "shooter" in overhead perspective. To the variety in the development we must add a very particular artistic line, a brilliant soundtrack and a rhythm of play that pushes us to replay it from the perspective of different characters until we know all the endings.
If all the virtues of Nier Automata original and we were impressed (whatever your platform, we recommend you give him an opportunity), the arrival at Xbox One has an extra incentive. Because Nier Automata Become As Gods includes the downloadable content that appeared afterwards. This is 3C3C1D119440927 * which includes three different scenarios, new side quests and costumes for three protagonists, plus a new song for the soundtrack.
The Nier Automata enhancements in Xbox One X
The other great novelty of this delivery lies in its technical section. The versions of Xbox One and PS4 do not show too many differences (with some occasional fall of frames), but in the superior consoles yes that there is an important change; both remain at 60 FPS most of the time, but while in PS4 PRO the game ran at 1080p on Xbox One X we can enjoy it at 2160p (4K rescaling). On the contrary, the community has shown its displeasure for the errors of HDR that this version has.
To be completely honest, we have not experienced this effect of "washed" colors with the HDR in Nier Automata Become As Gods but it may be more noticeable on other TVs or with the standard Xbox One version. Anyway, we must bear in mind that the color palette of the game is pale by the Nier's own line of sight. If you can choose, the version of the new Microsoft console seems the sharpest.
Hideki Kamiya thanks Nier Automata for saving Platinum Games
Leaving aside these details, is a perfect opportunity to enjoy a game that runs the risk of going unnoticed with more popular titles, but it is one of the most amazing RPGs that we have crossed in years. Automata raises a saga that can be considered cult, with a perfect balance between gameplay, plot and rhythm of game, and characters that leave us marked. Glory to humanity!
Assessment
No wonder it has become a cult game. Nier Automata offers us a unique experience in the genre of J-RPG: exploration, combat and a surprising argument -with great protagonists- that was only possible through the collaboration of talents such as Platinum Games and Square-Enix. </p>
The best </h4>
A cult piece, impeccable JRPG that also includes all downloadable content. </p>
Worst </h4>
Technically (even on Xbox One X) it falls short, especially open scenarios. Problems with the HDR. </p><img width="850" height="478" src="http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d.jpeg" class="attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image" alt="" srcset="http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d.jpeg 850w, http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d-300x169.jpeg 300w, http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d-768x432.jpeg 768w, http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d-696x391.jpeg 696w, http://gamer.hostee.click/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/ccb9754f1b5acf21321728fe95852b9d-747x420.jpeg 747w" sizes="(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px" /><br/>
