Phil Spencer had promised: will come so many Japanese games on Xbox One . Promise held during the E3 2018 that has just ended, Microsoft showed that he was particularly interested in video games from the Rising Sun, to bring a good amount also in conference, which include the Yoko Taro's latest masterpiece and Platinium Games, Nier: Automatic which comes in digital version only and with an edition called: Become As Gods Edition, including all DLC -3C3C1D119440927 DLC and costumes for different characters – previously published on Playstation 4 and PC Steam.
We had the pleasure of testing on Xbox One and Xbox One X, checking out its optimization, which has always been a real Achille heel for the Taro team, which still today asks for a patch fix for the Steam version of the title. Apparently, it is not yet planned.
For Humanity
For those who have never played NieR: Automata, here is a brief incipit to help you understand what we are talking about: Earth has been invaded by a biomechanical humanoid race , determined to sweep and sweep away the human race forever. After a desperate flight to the moon, the few terrestrial survivors, choose a last desperate resource: the YoRHa project, designed to create a series of infantry androids to deploy on the battlefield of the Earth and release thus the world at a distance. of biomechanics and their mechanized servants. In the game, we play the role of 2B, a high-level Android YoRHa who faces a deep, exciting and bouncy story where the surprise is always hidden at the corner of the street. Emotion and empathy have proven to be the soulful carrier of an absolute level narrative experience.
To be fully appreciated, NieR: Automata requires to be completed three times although in reality we were talking about more "acts That true beginnings, as they change different characters and missions to follow. Each chapter shows, once completed, end credits, which is why in the collective imagination, they are defined as ends and not as conclusions of chapters. Although the plot is surrounded by exalted moments and ironic dialogues, it can be defined as mature and with rather dark tones, superficially mixed, trying not to exceed a certain predefined atmosphere.
An action-RPG with a thousand implications [19659002] Despite being a clbadic action RPG in the form, Nier: Automata mixes different genres during the combat phases : pbadage of 2D interludes Shoot-Em-Up style battles Continuous exchange of the camera without ever confusing or disorienting the player. Important PODs, small fluctuating robots that attend and shoot from afar, their presence is essential to badist us during clashes and can be valued with different tokens, their usefulness increases as you continue the adventure, becoming indispensable during the most difficult matches. Even 2B can receive improvements, particularly with respect to weapons that can be purchased by the dealers or found around the long exploratory phases of the large areas we are looking for.
Our protagonist can therefore have two sets of weapons available, each consisting of a light attack weapon and a weapon of defense. Heavy attack, during the fighting, it is possible to change quickly between sets 1 and 2, completing a particular combo, it is feasible thanks to the incredible fluidity and vertigo of fighting who constantly invite to use all the abilities at our disposal, including dodging, indispensable to be able to survive during the melee
Visually beautiful, musically magnetic
The video game of Platinium Games does not offer of particular peculiarity in the graphic appearance – flat characters, textures and improvable old animations – but, it is still true that arrives stylistically and artistically to offer truly inspired parameters which, with the rate of imag is anchored at 60fps, not only increases the visual beauty of the title. The Xbox One version does not differ too much from that of the standard Playstation 4, different from the talk for Xbox One X that can almost reach the native 4K by checkerboard from a 1920 x 2160 pixel resolution; a work that is definosino definable, all the more so as on the Sony mid gen console the game does not go beyond the Full HD and on PC it's really hard to hold the 60fps even with powerful machines. If you have the chance to play it on Xbox One X, know that it's the best "version" currently available on the market that not only offers an increase in resolution , but maintains the constant 60fps and brings several improvements: shadows, lighting, textures and particle effects, in short, not just a port, but something much deeper.
