NieR Re[in]carnation Reveals its Gameplay in First Trailer

Today Square Enix released the first gameplay trailer of NieR Re[in]carnation.

[Servbot41]

Mobile garbage.

[FanboyPolice]

Im always in for hate so agree

[Enturax]

It looks very atmospheric, I would not call it garbage, but yeah, being a mobile title is a no-no from me too.

[morganfell]

Not sure I would refer to that as gameplay...

Notice they have comments turned off on the youtube post. Even they know what to expect.

[Jin_Sakai]

They also have the likes/dislikes turned off. They know the outcome. Can’t stand garbage mobile games.

[TheColbertinator]

Yet they keep peddling this junk

[esherwood]

People can hate all they want but idiots will keep supporting that crap. It’s a no brainer they probably make way more from those games then AAA ones with 1/100th the effort. Unless government steps In it’ll eventually take over all gaming

[Sitdown]

@esherwood

And they are idiots because they prefer something you don't? What if the mobile sales support console games being made or introduces mobile gamers to the console version?

And the reason for the government stepping in would be what?

[esherwood]

Sit down the reason would be since it’s an addiction for a lot of people. Same reason we have laws about gambling. I bet anything there’s tons of people out there that have destroyed there lives because of that crap. They’re idiots because they are being taken advantage of

[esherwood]

For the record I was one of those idiots also. I spent $200 on fire emblem heroes before realizing how dumb it was. That game at most would cost $40 upfront but I got suckered into dumping all that money. I won’t even play a game unless I can experience the whole thing for a set amount of money now

[Abriael]

Guess they knew what to expect with Final Fantasy VII Remake's launch trailer as well?

Having comments turned off is the standard for big Japanese publishers, and that includes Square Enix.

Considering the garbage you read on YouTube comments, that's not even that much of bad idea.

[morganfell]

Because comments elsewhere on the internet are such repositories of insight whereas youtube alone is literary hell. Enough Japanese publishers and developers allow comments that stating the practice of turning them off is a standard is misleading at best. Nintendo and Bandai are pretty much the largest Japanese publishers and it isn't a standard for them.

[Abriael]

@morganfell I suggest to check before commenting. It really isn't hard.

Bandai Namco: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
Nintendo: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Also Capcom: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
And Koei Tecmo: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

What do they have in common?

Comments are turned off, and if you check other videos on these channels it's what they generally do.

So yeah, you're wrong. You're welcome for the insight.

And no, comments elsewhere are not great either, as this comment section clearly demonstrates. "let's boycott and bankrupt them for daring to make mobile games!" lol.

With this kind of nonsensical drivel, I'm not surprised Japanese companies turn off comments at least where they have control.

[morganfell]

I did check their channels and plenty of their videos do not have comments turned off. I checked both Japanese and English youtube channels. I looked at both channels. What you should have said is turning off comments is a standard for Japanese Channels. That isn't your remark. Precision matters. So yeah welcome to the insight. Then again being precise isn't something cared for these days.

Where did I mention boycotting? Nice lump mentality.

[Abriael]

Have you read the comments around here? No one talked about *you* "precision matters" 😏

And the overwhelming majority of the videos on those channels have comments turned off regardless of whether they're about popular things or not. You might just go ahead and admit that you're wrong. It's absolutely a standard among big Japanese publishers, with good reason. That makes your point about having comments off because they knew "what to expect" absolutely irrelevant.

It's actually rather funny that you think you know better about what Japanese companies do with their trailers.

[AuraAbjure]

She runs like BotW Link 'cept more manly.

[FanboyPolice]

hi! this is your profile? ᴡᴡᴡ.username.cloobxxx.pw

Thats my opinion of this game.

[Xenial]

Haha, fortunately, I understand this!

OT: Running a straight line isn't exactly gameplay, at least swing the sword a couple of times. Damn.

[IanTH]

Just about every time I log into this site, I have to report and block a new account sending that damn message! One time I logged in and I had FOUR of the damn things!

Whoever runs this site needs to have a filter option for private messages, where they simply silently don't delivery any messages with terms or web addresses they add to a blacklist. It's a minor annoyance, but it is a growing one.

[IanTH]

Wow, people are very narrow minded here. Mobile games CAN be garbage, but not all mobile games are garbage. What kind of people are so insecure about their status in their imaginary gaming hierarchy that they would ask people to boycott a company for also making mobile games!? That's bananas.

[FanboyPolice]

Hello amigo,

You are right. But this is not narrow minded.

You dont go and say, hey EA released another game, they have a LOT of good games so lets not automatically think the next one is a microtransaction predator”

It is what have been earned. Most mobile games have earned the fame of sucking monkey ass. Dirty ones. Its not narrow minded, its numbers.

Those games which are good sometimes dont even have the budget or fame to be in articles like this one.

[IanTH]

If people can't take things on a case-by-case basis, then they're going to end up leading a very boring gaming life (and likely a very boring real life driven by flawed logic, if that same process is used elsewhere). It's no wonder studios make such similar games leading to innovation/uniqueness is slowly dying out. When hot taeks like these are made without something even being given a chance - even when it is a title from an already established, beloved property - simply because it is on a platform they aren't familiar with/interested in playing it on.

I get its a mobile game. I get there is hesitation, and it is unquestionably healthy to have a certain amount of skepticism. But it shouldn't be written off yet. Though more to the point, it shouldn't be accompanied by comments espousing unanimous, unflinching hate towards everything mobile. That's the kind of single-mindedness that is indefensible, and frankly confusing.

[Lilrizky]

Those games which are good sometimes I usually made by square.

[isarai]

If it's like a Journey type adventure game with the flavor of Yoko Taro's team, id be down

[Abcdefeg]

Can't wait for the remaster of the first game

[phoenixwing]

For all I know this could be good. However it's probably going to be another crap mobile game

[esherwood]

I really wish people would stop buying that crap. That will never happen though since they have teams of people dedicated to making them as addictive as possible. I never understood how anyone could be against them regulating that crap

[jznrpg]

Looks good for mobile but what are the MTs like? That’s what usually makes mobile crappy . I hope for a good game without horrible MTs but only time will tell

[dragonrage00]

Well, graphics look good for mobile, and the music is as good as you would expect from a Nier game. Other than that, not much to go on

[Exvalos]

Oh man its mobile? In the famous words of Cloud Strife "Not intrested."

[CrimsonWing69]

Wow, and there goes any interest I had in this game. I can’t stand mobile games.

[UnSelf]

Okay well at least we now know the character can move. 10/10

[bangoskank]

This looks beautiful and like it fits perfectly into the Neir catalog... but I don't want to play it on my f'ng phone. Controlling games like this on a phone sucks. I cannot wait for this fad to die.

[gamer7804]

Phone games...

[Homushi]

man this looks super cool, we need more quality games on mobile, this will be good.

[AK91]

Ugh a mobile game of course.
