![]() ![]() The thing about Nier is I ended up liking it a lot more than its objective shortcomings would suggest. Not much about Nier can be gleaned from a paragraph in a top twenty list but something about a wise cracking book made this title stick out and it became a quick addition to my list of games that I need to play. I didn’t even learn about it until 2013, when a bout of insomnia led me to stumbling across a list of obscure RPGs that are worth playing. In 2010 most gamers weren’t interested in it. Several of the side quests felt like filler as most of them were pointless and dull busywork. The graphics might have been considered good if it was a launch title for that console generation. These criticisms were not unwarranted either, the combat and platforming mechanics of Nier were serviceable but not extraordinary. When Nier was released for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 it was met with a mixed critical reception and substandard sales. Nier is a humorous and rather bizarre action RPG with an engrossing and emotionally-charged story. The sequel improved on many gameplay mechanics and is hard to argue against it being the superior game but the original Nier didn’t become a cult classic for no reason as there are plenty aspects about this title that makes it a worthwhile game. This title was the sequel to the 2010 Drakengard spinoff Nier, which was played by about six people. ![]() NieR: Automata released to critical acclaim and commercial success in 2017, earning several accolades from many outlets including this site’s best game of the year. We even have a beige computer with a floppy disk drive. All the classic systems are down there collecting dust, so in an effort to improve the cleanliness of our work space, we dust off these old consoles every so often and put an old game through its paces, just to make sure everything stays in working order. The basement at the Hardcore Gamer office has a section known as the Crust Room, with an old grey couch and a big old CRT TV.
