Yes I almost quit when this happened. This boss isn't too hard on the second try once you've understood how to dodge its attacks but not putting an auto-save point just before the fight is BS game design.
The game literally warns you that there is no autosave, though there still isn't a quick save point in the prologue so I get what you mean@@enzocrespin5806
The fact that Engels spews out steam and fire from his body really made me think of the Colossal Titan. But machines are next level, look at the aquatic machine from the flooded city
litle girl gets crushed by giant saw-equiped machinery that wheights at least 50 tons multiple times. Just stands up, not even the clothes where harmed.
Platinum always know how to make a first impression. Reminds me of how the first boss in Metal Gear Rising was Metal Gear RAY; the final fucking boss of MGS2. (Not counting Solidus)
This boss fight sets up the rest of the game so well in regards to boss fights. In the way they use it to tell a story, to test if you have the corrects skills in dodging and attacking on both the ground and in the air, and what kind of things you are fighting against
You're the first person I've seen who actually noticed that. Considering the japanese love referencing certain bits and pieces from German culture and history,I'm sure they took the Horten 229 name for those flight units ^^
my dumbass thought for a sec that i just beat the game after i died and the credits rolled fast forwarded. saying that i was confused is an understatement.
I just got this on switch and I can't believe I was that close to defeating this thing and I just had to die on the part where 9S is talking about the robot's upper arm 😭😭
Can you tell me how you can which way to move in order to avoid the saws for when you start the fight in flight suit? Im playing hard mode and its an insta kill and having to repeat the same mission 1000x is annoying but I refuse to go down on difficulty.
Either that or an optional boss, as Nier Automata has side-questing similar to (al be it less generic i imagine) the original nier having side-quests. Might even do like Nier and have a huge chunk of optional story and character interaction through said quests.
Music and scenario more than make up for it though. Besides this is the tutorial it's supposed to be easy. And it'd be super weird to see Engels swinging his arms around at lightning speed.
For a long time, this giant excavator machine has reminded me of something that i simply could never quite place. And then it hit me! An Imperator-class War Titan from Warhammer 40k!
Wasn't Engels one of the two Goliath that we face later in the game? I mean the ones who destroyed the old city. I think this one doesn't have a proper name.
This game is very Legendary nostalgia for me very epic all scene all fight i like it! Tq Square Enix bring this game even now i still playing this game bruh!!❤
Remember everyone, 2B and 9S faced this thing on their own because the other androids of her squad couldn’t dodge a telegraphed laser.
the others had auto chip on and forgot it wont dodge the giant laser
@@xalphazero255 one of them ate a mackerel during flight
I've been running the nier raid in ffxiv quite a lot and I can confirm you : even humans have great difficulties dodging telegraphed attacks.
@@xalphazero255 valid reason, imagine a soldier goes to war and gets killed cos he forgot his riffle lmao
Hell of a first boss. No way that thing is Lvl: 6.
If you finish the game and fight with it a second time, you'll understand why it says lvl 6
Yah... I died more times XD
i guess I am quite randomly asking but do anyone know of a good place to stream new series online ?

@Chris Stanley Thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I appreciate it !
Attacking a pair of industrial excavators attached to a giant robot with a sword does not seem like the most effective way to stop said robot
Have you seen Metal Gear Rising??
Cyber Ocelot yes be she doesn't have the strength to throw it like Ray

Losing here and having to restart the game is absolutely devastating :D
On my 3rd go. I don't usually play console games. Hopefully it gets better when I can actually save.

me too LUL died 3 times almost quit the game
Dropped for one year. I'm just retrying
No idea what blows my mind more, The incredible soundtrack judging by this and the puppet boss song or the boss fights
MGR fans and Nier automata fans fighting a first boss being basically a titan sized robot: *(handshake)*
The fact that Engels spews out steam and fire from his body really made me think of the Colossal Titan.

because it is an Android
not the actual human
if she's a human
she would probably crushed into pieces
Vidya gaymes
HARUNO HAZUKI
android os such size would also be destroyed. There is no logic in this game and that's all.
"Not even clothes were harmed" That's suck, I expect something... Realistic, iykwim
yea because shes an android not a human
Probably the coolest first boss in any game I’ve played
Have you ever played Metal Gear Rising? Just search Rules of Nature on UA-cam
@@gamemaster1608 Raiden at the start be like: ok imma suplex this big robot
@@gamemaster1608 raiden with rules of nature theme is a god
platinum never misses with first bosses
@@gamemaster1608 Nier is better
this is why you shouldn't mess with devastator
It's like they dropped the Allspark on Bagger 288
He looks better devastator then devastator in mbay film
Freaking Metroplex over here.
I think the giant killer robot needs some WD-40, cause ho-ly…
Can you imagine the damage to his joints he’s causing if we can hear them that far away?
You’re absolutely correct. All the fire in the arms is apparently caused by overheating and friction.
Platinum always know how to make a first impression.
Reminds me of how the first boss in Metal Gear Rising was Metal Gear RAY; the final fucking boss of MGS2. (Not counting Solidus)
I just love how 2B stands unfazed when the goliath jumps in front of her. She is such a cool beauty XD
Imagine if you went to a job interview and at the end the whole building transforms into an opponent. I would probably just freeze in place LOL.
10:17 Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself! Stop hitting yourself!
what i was thinking too xD
The time I saw using the Goliath's arms to itself is the biggest "Why are you hitting yourself" I have ever seen.
Playing this on hard is realy a test for everything of you...
This boss fight sets up the rest of the game so well in regards to boss fights. In the way they use it to tell a story, to test if you have the corrects skills in dodging and attacking on both the ground and in the air, and what kind of things you are fighting against
Man, I wish my graphics card was good enough to do this.
You can always play on a console
Pavel you gotta have money for that dude
I thought poor people played console
@@Payvel u serious? Console costs like hell. Wish I had a spare kidney.
TRANSFORMERS
ROBOTS IN DISGUISE
It’s weight 50k tons or more
MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
A real test of the old gamer's mettle early on, knowing you've got like a half hour to play over if you lose.
5:33 - I love 2B's cry of "9S!" here.
I love how well the anime did this fight. 2B looked at it and then 9S showed up it was so cool
Ho229? Like the Horten Ho 229? That couldn't have been a coincidence.
You're the first person I've seen who actually noticed that. Considering the japanese love referencing certain bits and pieces from German culture and history,I'm sure they took the Horten 229 name for those flight units ^^
Panzerführer Chavez yoko taro played too much war thunder XD
He just wants... to see the stars sometime
Just finished this boss. Such a cool game so far.
2B.....2T.
*The oldest anarchy server in Minecraft.*
Music reminds me of the original Ghost in the Shell movie opening credits score.
There's a lot of songs in this soundtrack with a Ghost in the Shell type feel
Heavyly looks like MGR, rips arm from robot, uses it against the robot lmao
Both are made by Platinum Games, they love making crazy boss fights like this! :P
Reminds me of Colossus of Rhodes fight in GoW 2.
well this boss is like common give me a hug
holy crap its an Imperial Titan without all the canons
Its his little bro
I get shivers from this game......
my dumbass thought for a sec that i just beat the game after i died and the credits rolled fast forwarded.
saying that i was confused is an understatement.
This reminds me of the Excelsus boss from Metal Gear rising revengence
For a giant piece of metal it can sure jump quite high and far
Finally get it on Steam, what a game ! I wasn't on board at first but the gameplay, the combat system is just neat !
It reminded me of a Warhammer titan
Tbh the Goliath could've done more damage instead of targeting just 1-2 Androids
Best first boss battle in all time!
THE UNENLIGHTENED MASSES
METROPLEX HEEDS THE CALL OF THE LAST PRIME!
When you hear the boss music ok time To Play ... Bipolar Nightmare's
I just got this on switch and I can't believe I was that close to defeating this thing and I just had to die on the part where 9S is talking about the robot's upper arm 😭😭
Worst feeling ever :D
Huh, so this is where all the Transformers rejects go, guys leave him alone he's just sad!
You’re big, fought bigger.
Can you tell me how you can which way to move in order to avoid the saws for when you start the fight in flight suit? Im playing hard mode and its an insta kill and having to repeat the same mission 1000x is annoying but I refuse to go down on difficulty.
Apparently you have to avoid it by going inside and not out
stay between the arms and dodge shortly before impact, timing it Juuuuust right makes you invulnerable.
2b or raiden?
Automata or mgs?
As much as i love Revengeance, 2B mops the floor with Raiden
Both are great
Having played this fight, it definitely feels like a first boss. The saws are incredibly easy to evade , and the second phase is even easier to dodge.
***** Same for Metal Gear Rising, first boss is always just the hook.

Engel is German for angel.....
It's a reference to Friedrich Engels lmao
Evangelion reference?
@@anarche4900 Communism Reference. The sawblade is named Marx.
The Means of Production are literally beating the shit out of you.
You fighting Metroplex now baby!
HOLY FUCK
That's the first boss?!
I wonder what a Goliath with bagger 288s would look like.
I usually like Nier Automata and I’m definitely gonna buy this game someday?
you.. "usually" like it but you dont even have the game?
Guys would just see something like this and go "hell yeah"
2:10 NOTHING CAN WITHSTAND THE MIGHT OF DEVASTATOR!
Transformers what ever the hell is that thing in disguise
Anyone else here because of FFXIV?
Also from FFXIV here!
The new raid definitely makes me want to get NieR, but ahh... money.
I'm amazed at how much of this fight translated over to the FFXIV version!
@@takumiyamamiya8877 friend i came from nier to ff14 your in for a bittersweet, but incredible treat.
@@KIRBYCAMPER117 I love the look and atmosphere of the game, but alas, harware + purchase cost is keeping it out of reach.

Stuck at Boku-Shi for the last 2 years, fuck my life I'll never finish this. I thought Adam was hard.
10:18 RULES OF NATURE
50K tons Goliath,wow.i bet human can’t even beat this “thing”!
well... maybe with her " robot special suit " human can beat that... thing
Unless they have heavy explosive artillery or a aircraft, yeah humans wouldn’t stand a chance
The tutorial of this game in very hard is pretty nasty ngl
Anyone here from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius?
Here but I knew from the drakengar saga first
How does 9S not fall off when your attacking it lol
Does anyone else wonder why the combat in Automata is so freaking Floaty than in Replicant? It's like KH3 in terms of combat movement.

Play this video game since late 2021 on my xbox one on game pass.
Here after hearing the song in the anime
Anybody know the first song that plays when they talk before the fight?
You can find it on youtube under a generic title, but you'll have to wait for a title when the OST releases at end of month
ohh okay. Thanks man
no prob
why you not instead of put a demo boss make the bosses from the original nier?
Santi Cascardo why no both?
Grace Mirchea Luslec because this game is not relesed and this is only a demo so probably it has no more bosses more than this
In the word of Piccolo. DODGE
Musics ?
Dark souls with robots
its sad day when every third person action game is somehow dark souls.
MrInuhanyou123 especially when it's nothing like dark souls.
SMWHacker89 you probably think kingdom hearts is dark souls with Disney and final fantasy character -___-
What are you playing the demo on?
PS4 Pro (description)
Dominik trace does the boss fight make the fan in your pro sound like a jet engine? this part of the game makes my console struggle. and only at 1080p
Ughh the black box reaction throws me to an ads
This boss more like Sonic The Hedgehog 2 :v
Grand Chase The Uno Blood Less ikr
Leave that giant thing to kratos. He will obliterate it in seconds...
