@@souldanny. shut up you idi*t. It's like saying you are supposed to be able to do complex analysis on your first day just because you know 2+2 is 4. The game got some refunds just because of the shit no save method.

You have save. I have saved almost 90 hours up until now. You just need to activate some computers (vent machines) which clear the map and you can quick save. Search it up on youtube

@@daniel_rossy_explica yup. and if you die you gotta go aaaaaall the way back and come back and die again. pretty great lol. but fr its a great game but jesus that tutorial is way too fucking hard
The first part of this game is just awesome. Starting on hard mode, playing maybe 4/5 hours to arrived here then... 0:26 ... song begins... Dammit, where is the save point ? D:
It’s acctuaully not that hard, the game cuts off most of the insane parts before they kill you. The game switches up the gameplay keeping you entertained the whole fight. So I’d say it’s a fun, but hard fight
Took me about 2 hours and 4 deaths to beat this boss. I'm playing on normal with keyboard and mouse which isn't exactly ideal, but it works. One tip for when both the saws come down and go along the bridge horizontally, just stick to the edge of the bridge. Can't hit you there
I have massive regrets playing this on hard. Literally anything that the final boss throws at me will be a one shot, and send me straight back to the start.
Dude I’m on that dilemma. I just got this game and was told I can save after like the first hour in, basically after the first boss. I’m still at first boss and got 24 hrs of game time
@@ItsVenti Lets be honest, Hi im a newbie playing this game for first time in hard mode, the very hard mode is so unrealistic, just one punch of a mob sends you to the beginning, this 2B is supposed to be an android for combat, one mob attack couldnt and shouldnt one shot you, at least for me the hard mode is just right, 2B takes one or two hits before saying goodbye to her life, that is more correct, an android should tank at least that much, those one shot the boss give you that is more realistic, that prologue guy literally throw you a gigantic saw on the face, but a debuff of all the attacks can instant kill you in very hard, no thanks to that unrealistic set up, and literally im just a medium rank gamer, not a pro-gamer
Oh man I did not know the boss fight would be that rough. So many of the attacks seem undodgeable, even if you don't get hitstun after, used up all my small recoveries and a few mediums.
I'm replaying Nier automata after 3 years (100% and platinum), after beating Nier Replicant. I noticed that 2B says "Emotions are forbidden"... and then at 5:41 she is way too much into the emotions. I already know the story, but I love when you notice new things just replaying a game :) .
I lost 1.5 hours of game time the first time I played this because I died to the boss, just from the mechanical arms in the beginning. Then I got it really easily on my 2nd try because I watched this video before it. Thank you so much. I just copied everything you did lmao.
30 years of game experience here, and this first boss just kicked the h*ll out of me first go. That is rare seen in my career. But I take it, playability and music is so awesome in this game.
I don’t understand people who try to play a game on hard for the very first time when they have obviously never played it and have no concept of difficulty. Normal for this game is hard so it’s always hilarious to me to see people insist to play on hard for their blind playthrough
And here I am, playing on hard from the start in my very first playthrough and keeping dying a couple of times because of my distracted and retarded mind :))
No matter, the game is pretty easy and the only problem being the inability to save and requirement to re-run the whole intor squence before the boss, while not knowing the full move set to beat it. It's generic bad game design.
Yeahh I really don’t regret choosing easy especially with how many heals I kept having to consume hahaha, and besides I’m just here for the cool visuals and story because that’s my jam
This was the most difficult prologue/tutorial in all my story as a Gamer and I have played a lot but this game with that kind of tutorial, normal and hard mode is already a nightmare so my respect for those who pass this on the first try or play it in the maximum difficulty Note: maybe is just me because for fun i'm playing it in hard mode for the first time yep 2024 and now i'm playing this
After 2 years after first playing, I’m going to try this again. Died about 3 times trying to beat the first boss on Normal. Stunned to find that you can’t save before the fight. I honestly just put the game away and never played it again.
I was stuck on the start of the game for 13 hours because I did not know you cna not dodge the one attack, I just kept playing through and trying to dodge it :/ didnt realize you have to run form one of the attacks the big robot does
I thought the perfect dodge was R2 + X this whole time. I was wondering why it wouldnt work sometimes and thought the timing was just that slim. Turns out its just R2 🤡
"oooooh look at us, we've made a very speshul game where you have to start over if you die cuz you can't save until a certain point omg we're soooo speshul, djapanese game makerz omg"
I’m catching mad hell with this lol. I’m playing the game on hard mode and you can’t get hit no more than two possible three times. They hit you with a hard attack then it’s just one hit and you start all the way over. I’m trying not to punk out and keep it on hard mode😂
Wow first time playing thr game and my character just stops moving I get hit by a bunch of missiles and die I knew what I was getting into with this game I don't mind dieing but when I die through something that is not fault if my own that's when I get frustrated and just won't play the game
I was just playing it on Normal mode and enjoying it and died here and started from beginning. I know it's meant to be a hard game but making you start from the beginning of a game is not fun and it doesn't make it more difficult either as everything up until here is easy. No idea what the Devs were thinking.
I don't know about any Nier before. At the first time, I was so exciting when I saw the trailers, artwork, gameplay before the game released. And I bought the PC version at the first day even it is not available in my region of Steam. I feel good to The first stage (dog fight) and the first boss. the game view is interesting, mixing the side view, bird view, third person view in one game. The world is great, especially the desert. And I feel really impressive when I meet the boss ~the great singer with red dressing and bodies on herself, summoning corpse. It is so great, same feeling when I saw it on the trailr. After finished it. I was start feeling empty and lost. The world is empty, the emeny is too easy to kill. I start feeling asleep when playing it, even the boss I met in the next stage. I start feeling the game asking me to strugge for ending. Asking me to suffer the bored game play to meet every boss, every cut sence. I give it up. I know that this is a great game, it is collectable, but only a collectable, for me at least. I would say it may be a brand new story, but not a brand new item. It more like similar to the Metal Gear Solid Ground Zero, or a promotional product to remind people Nier is still here.
after 5hrs on hard and very hard and back to hard mode i finnaly beat the first boss with ony 1 healing item of each kind yay! it only took several 1 hit kills to teach me how to dodge~
