[Game] Recommendation - Nier: Automata

3 years ago by playmaker to c/steamdeck

NieR: Automata tells the story of androids 2B, 9S and A2 and their battle to reclaim the machine-driven dystopia overrun by powerful machines.

This game is the reason why a guy [the legendary u/-YoRHa2B-] started working on dxvk, to make this game compatible on linux after it released. Valve hired him and made Proton out of it. The result is the Steam Deck, this remains one of the best games for the SD.

Really good game! I actually run on Reddit two subs for the series (r/drakengard and r/okbuddyyorha) so it's really neat to see this recommendation here and it's pretty solid.

I would say though that this game is a standalone sequel to NieR Replicant (also amazing), and while you can play either in any order, I think the experience is better if played after Replicant. That said, both run pretty well on the Deck and both go on sale often!

Shameless plug, if you like the series, we also have an instance for the series at lemm.ee/c/nier. Anyways
