4.5/5 ★ – Cahalko's review of NieR: Automata - Game of the YoRHa Edition.

I cry easily when it comes to media, and Nier Automata knows how to hit that spot in my brain to get the waterworks flowing. Platinum's skill at creating a combat system combined with Yoko Taro's soul destroying talent for tragedy make this game a masterpiece. half a star off because in order to fully appreciate the games you'd have to play Drakengard 1 and Nier (or do what I did and watch Clemps' retrospectives on YouTube), and route B might take a while to get interesting for you.
