A concise and spoiler free analysis/review of Yoko Taro's Masterpiece: NieR: Automata
55Ever since I’ve played NieR: Automata, I’ve been absolutely enthralled in it and all of the creations of Yoko Taro, going so far as to sludge through the 20 year old drakengard's utterly abhorrent combat, just to get more of his storytelling genius. I hope this video does a decent job of conveying this game’s excellence.

I realized immediately after uploading this I forgot to mention the side quests. They tie into the main story excellently, foreshadowing events and further expanding the world.
