NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139... is the Remastered version of NIER. As a massive fan of NieR: Automata and as someone who didn't play the original version of this game, I was very excited to play NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139...
I'm gonna start off from the most important part of the game; the story. While NieR: Automata's story emphasizes on it's themes, NieR Replicant's story emphasizes on it's characters. In NieR Replicant ver.1.22474487139..., the story has been expanded with a new story arc and an additional Ending. Overall, NieR Replicant has a phenomenal story, one that brought me to tears many times; even more so than NieR: Automata's. The gameplay is neither as experimental nor as fluid as in NieR: Automata, but the combat system is quite similar and the Sealed Verses are more interesting than the Pod Programs. The main characters are wonderful! They're probably some of my favorite characters in a while. I gotta admit, this is the only game I've played that made me cry because of the music; it's absolutely incredible! Visually, the game isn't impressive, but it looks good enough. Just like in NieR: Automata, a single playthrough won't be enough to finish the entire story of the game. Unfortunately for NieR Replicant, you need to collect every weapon in the game in order to get the true ending of the story, and it gets a bit boring after a while. Also, the side-quests are very uninteresting and outdated.
Pros: + Superb narrative + Great gameplay + Excellent characters + Fantastic music + Nice visuals
Cons:
Narrative: 10/10 Gameplay: 8/10 Content: ?/10 Characters: 10/10 Music: 10/10 Graphics/Audio: 8/10
Final Rating: 9.5/10
Do I recommend it?: Yes! Especially to the fans of the series.

A Great video game with GREAT music,Story sceneries, design
But being honest the game have some important flaws in its battle system, it's pretty satisfactory but sadly turns really boring after some hours
But the story it's 10/10.

But the story it's 10/10.
Originally came out back in 2010 and it was pretty much bashed by most critics for having uninspired gameplay mechanics and repetitive enemy design and because of that not a lot of people played the game but it did gained a cult following due to it's beautifully tragic story, amazing characters and it's masterful soundtrack.
Now fast forward 11 years later after the huge success of nier automata we finally get a remaster of the original and i believe this is now one of the best jrpg's i've ever played and i've seen a lot of reviewers saying this game is not good compared to automata and that's so not true, if you look pass the 2010 design flaws (the repetitive back tracking or bland fetch quests) the game will reward you with such a rich and powerful story that's arguably even better than automata, it's so heartbreaking and sad yet so epic and satisfying specially if you go though all the endings which now has a new one and it makes the journey so perfectly complete.
Overall i can't stress enough how phenomenal this game is and i'm really glad they made this so everyone can experience just how great the original nier was and what a genius writer/director yoko taro is.
10/10 an unforgiving, unforgettable masterpiece.

Simply one of the best games ever made. One of the few games to make me cry. I recommend this to anyone with a heart.

I love this game. I played it first on my old PS3
Feeling love with the story and the humanly flawed characters that are hard not to like I love them even if they do horrible things .
When I think about this game, it's context it's how a normal epic adventure can be wangle into something else with just a few more dialog scenes and a bit More context It's just one of those amazing thing you can do with a video game when you can play it twice and get different meanings.
And I fell into a Groove it was hard to stop sidequest I feel like the main character. I wanted to help every person. I couldn't stop myself even I had to collect some teddies items I couldn't stop myself so I ended up caring for this dying world.
And this game does things that I've not seen in many game. I love the director of it. Truly makes some interesting games. I've played them all but this is my favorite of them.
His characters are so well characterized and even if they have horrible flaws. It's hard not to like them maybe even love them. I love kaine.
There's so much beauty in this dying world talking to the characters realizing what horrible despair that is happening but still try to be human.
Does this game has flaws? Oh yes many many are times where the gameplay makes me feel like I want to just go away, but I have to go back to it. Because the context helped so much with the tedious stuff that I love doing it.
I am sad that we don't get the option to play as DAD nier but hey at least I can always go back to the original 360 and PS3 versions .
This game has one of the best soundtrack. I've ever listened to the only one. I think is better is Kingdom Hearts 2.
I used 30 hours on this game. I got every ending I even got ending E so I will say I love this game and I will really appreciate it if you try it.
Thank you for playing.
