4This video is the first Livestream VOD of our playthrough of Nier:Automata!
Nier: Automata is a 2017 action role-playing game developed by PlatinumGames and published by Square Enix. It is a sequel to the 2010 video game Nier, itself a spin-off and sequel of the Drakengard series. The game originally released for the PlayStation 4 and Windows via Steam, with an Xbox One port being published the following year with the subtitle Become As Gods Edition. This is my first playthrough of any game in the Nier franchise.

We are playing on the PS4. Gameplay streamed to Twitch via OBS studio.
Set during a proxy war between alien-created machines and human-crafted androids, the story follows the trials of a combat android, her companion, and a fugitive prototype. The story requires multiple playthroughs, each unlocking additional story elements. Gameplay combines role-playing elements with action-based hack and slash combat, and features switches between video game genres similar to that of Nier with elements ranging from shoot 'em up to text adventure.
Nier: Automata shares the post-apocalyptic setting of Nier, taking place thousands of years after the game's fourth ending. The universe of Nier takes place in an alternate timeline within the Drakengard series. While carrying over the Drakengard tradition of a dark atmosphere and branching storylines, no direct narrative connection is shared between Nier: Automata and the rest of the series. Set in the year 11945 AD, the story revolves around a proxy war between the human-made androids and the machine army of invaders from another world. Lacking both emotions and true names, androids have particular attitudes that distinguish them from their fellows. The "YoRHa" android forces are commanded from the Bunker, a reconnaissance base in orbit above Earth. They fight alongside the pre-YoRHa androids on Earth (known as the Resistance) to drive back the Machines.
We do a lot of random, conversational tangents and spontaneous moments in which I stop playing in order to chat to the stream. I know that this breaks up the consistency of the play through and can be irritating for viewers that are watching purely for the gameplay. We are pretty new to the whole streaming thing and I'm currently trying to get better at it as we go. Know that I want to bring y'all the best quality that I possibly can and I'm aiming to improve with every stream we do.
Finally, a big thanks to everyone who came to hang out during and who subbed or donated during the livestream itself. You guys are the best, so thank you. I hope y'all enjoy the stream!
