NieR Automata | Final Impressions - A Humanist Game About Self/Identity, Empathy & Perspective
My final impressions after playing through Nier Automata on the Playstation 5. It's innovative usage of gameplay mechanics to deliver such a compelling narrative through its unique story is nothing short of a breath-taking masterpiece that deserves a place among my favorite games of all time.
In this video, I hone in on the key things I believe the game is trying to convey which are humanist reflections on: perspective, self, and empathy.
