Hmm the more I study next Gen consoles, the more I like.  Microsoft has a performance standard of 4k60-120fps with Series X, which utterly destroys One X standard of 4k30-60fps.

If you're willing to drop several hundred on a 4k 120hz TV....there's really not much more you could want in gaming, unless you're super autistic like me and needs ultra high refresh rates/fps with the perfect resolution for the right size screen.

The magic here is that even though QLED TV's are notoriously high on lag times (double digit ms, yuck!) with consoles everyone else also has it, plus QLED TV's have deeper blacks, which is a great trade off.

Nier:Automata fans should be pleased that the first installment Nier:Replicant will be released on PC

I thought the first installment was Drakengard? 🤔

Well, yes, kinda. Nier is a spinoff based on one of the endings of Drakengard.

There is Drakengard which is the first game in the series. There is also Drakengard 2 which is a sequel to the original Drakengard but there is also Nier which is also a sequel based on one of the endings in Drakengard 1. There is Drakengard 3 which is a prequel to Drakengard 1 and Nier: Automata which is a sequel to Nier which itself had two different versions.

 

Edit: ^ If I were to say all of that to someone face to face they would've probably punched me in the face halfway through and moved along.

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

I think I played Nier: Automata for like a couple of hours before I threw in the towel.  It was pretty fun but couldn't quite grasp why people were raving about it, just sorta struck me as just another weeaboo action rpg type thing that are a dime a dozen.

Never played the others.

Do numbers mean nothing to you monsters?!

Too bad it wasn't made by Microsoft. If it was then the 3rd installment would be called Drakengard One and, oddly enough, that title would actually make some sense, chronologically speaking.

That or the People's Republic is in charge of assigning the numbers for each title.

I know what I'm playing when I get home from the road (and into quarantine) in a week and a half.

If the port is of the same level of quality as Nier: Automata I think I'll pass.

Yes, I'm still bitter about it deciding my savegame was not worthy enough to be kept around.

I'm the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal? I've SEEN the future. Do you know what it is? It's a 47-year-old virgin sitting around in his beige pajamas, drinking a banana-broccoli shake, singing "I'm an Oscar Meyer Wiene"

Sort of anti-climactic end.  Well, at least it wasn't bolter porn.
