Emil's Determination (2B / No Damage) - NieR: Automata
Now we get to see 2B's reaction to the tragic end of our favorite cinnamon bun...
I know I really don't like getting hit, but I didn't actually think I'd be able to pull off a no-damage against this boss. Maybe it was beginner's luck when I first did this as 9S (on top of having the flu, no less), but even though I got hit a few times then, it was much less stressful dodging the shots and lasers that first time @_@
Looking at the footage, I didn't even need that M Shield that I threw up. I used it out of panic, but I still somehow managed to dodge through the lasers from that close without the shield having to absorb any hits. I'm still not sure how
This means I could've done this on Very Hard, given that I didn't use lock-on and that enemies have the same HP and Def on Normal, Hard, and Very Hard. But then I'd have failed because it would've made me nervous x(
It also means my Max HP Up +8 chip was pointless for this...
Anyway, as you can see, my last save was in the Desert: Center, even though I was nowhere near there at the start of this video. That's because I saved when I got to the Desert and then got the joke ending for this fight first. Since you can only do side quests once, had I not gotten the joke ending first, I'd have been cut out of it forever.
Sure I could buy the trophy for having all the endings, but I wanted to get all the trophies on my own, and I wanna show that ending as well. So that's been cut as its own separate clip for later.
Though I WAS also mucking about in the Desert before this, which is where I came across the giant Emil heads and remembered I still had to re-do this quest. It's also how I knew those kamekazi f***s would blow up on me during the fight, because they actually aggro'd to me FROM THE EMIL HEADS when I was there. I lucked out as 9S, because they're not there in Route C.
Tbh I preferred 9S' dialogue during this quest.
