But it's so clear looking at their previous games that their quality depends on who they work with
Activision: Games puked out on too low a budget on way too short a dev-cycle
Kojima: amazing gameplay meets crazy story, cheesy cutscenes and just a tiny bit too self-indulgent techno-babble
Nintendo: Excellent games that don't sell because neither Mario or Zelda is in them 😔
Nintendo, specifically Miyamoto; too much reverence to a man way past his prime ruins what could have become a great game
Sega: Great games killed by lack of marketing
Microsoft: Game canceled after failure to implement shoehorned online features or to contain halo/forza/gears in the title
Yoko Taro: GOTY
Horizon and Nioh are both just awesome games as well. I think Horizon is kind of a must play for any PS4 owner and Nioh is a must play if you have at least a fleeting interest in Souls or Action games in general.
I have completed Nioh and i am about 10 hours into Horizon, only played the Nier demo but it is obviously a great game based on these reviews.

Transformers Devastation was still pretty good in-spite of its low budget. I mean it was directed by the guy who made Metal Gear Rising.
TMNT being a bit shit never really surprised me because it shared the same director of Legend of Korra, which was considered to be amongst Platinum's weakest works up to that point.

Maybe I should buy this game... I was going to wait a month or two because of zelda but this seems like a nice change of pace. Please be a good pc port!.

And Horizon has nearly 100 reviews.
It is great that Nier is at 90 but who knows what would happen with 50 more reviews added.

I think UPS fucked up my Black Box Edition.
Says it was delivered at my building by the dock.
We don't have a dock.

I played Nioh and I would go for Nier first for the sake that Nioh you may spend way more time on it to beat than this one plus the new game plus stuff there might hook you.
I feel bad for laughing lol
typo and was meant to be door?

Probably not. I'm in the city and there's buildings that have loading docks.

This gave me chills.
I bet he could do an amazing Barack Obama impression. Dat voice
Vagrant Story had amazing art direction and all, but i couldn't be bothered with all that crafting and combat.
If it was an action game Nier style, i'd be down tho.
Fans would probably be pissed, however.

It fucking sucks to be only an owner of an Xbox One and Wii U now. It's not that i'll likely get bored of Zelda anytime soon, but man i would most definitely buy this game for my Xbox One if the developer had just brought it to it as well. When it comes to Japanese games i really am not at the right place at Xbox. Which really is a shame because it was quite decent on 360, quite decent indeed. Ah well.
Transformers was great. People saw it being a low budget game and wrote it off.
Did you click the little black box?
Here's a GIF as a reward!
And my reward for selling him the game?

This is amazing, I actually ran out of money in my wallet this month with all the games. Pre-ordered Nier with my credit card lol.
I regret nothing: Nioh, Horizon, Nier and got my eyes on KH Remix!
Best Year Evar!

It has a strong start in Japan so it'll be interesting to see how it sells in NA and everywhere else. This is one of those games they can push heavily when it comes to Steam and PSN sales.

Some of the praise in that video is insane. What the hell? Platinum Games and life-altering stories? Wow.
"I could be on my fucking deathbed, and I might think of this game."
"NieR: Automata is the greatest game ever made. [...] Yoko Taro is gamings Shakespeare, Da Vinci, and Welles, all rolled into one."

That's probably the best thing you could say about a game.

Yup, I did, doesn't change my opinion on the game. You like it fine but I wouldn't lump Transformers with something like Korra.
"I could be on my fucking deathbed, and I might think of this game."
What a damn quote lol. Gonna make me smash that purchase button.
Damn...
I'm going for that Target Buy2Get1Free deal and I plan on getting Horizon and 2 others. The others I wanted were going to be Yakuza 0 and Nioh (since Zelda BOTW Switch isn't eligible). Now I see this game's getting a ridiculous score, fuck this is crazy.
I might have to add this to my "must buy" list.
