Nier Automata Delete Save Files. - Ігри
Funny, a game about Robots has gotten people to act the most human..Sacrificing all that hard work for some random person. That's pretty incredible.
Wasn't the game about robots basically evolving into humans and facing the same existentialism issues that we have to deal with every day? And that, maybe, for all their technical splendor, advanced physical and mental ability, and immortality, at the end of the day humanity was the pinnacle of existence after all.
Skynet
This is unheard of in video games.
@Dovax The extra "ships" that help you during the bullet hell scene in the credits were all from other players who've sacrificed their saved data.
@Dovax but then it would not be that much of a sacrifice, the game ask you to loose all of your progress just for ONE person, we are all ready to sacrifice something for everyone, are you ready to do it for just one person?
Seeing them deleting it before you, looks painful after all that work.
bankai0695 Look the bright side, you will help someone get the ending.
ShaykhMouhamad Mbaye The final boss fight on ending E is nearly impossible without help. you get a random rescue request that gives you ships created by other player's sacrificing their saves.
Thats what happened to me some hours ago. I made it to the Square Enix section and sh*t just got real... i never failed in that game but this time it kicked my bum reall hard. after retrying 12 times i got a help request. God bless those guys sacrificing theirselfes. Gonna do that as well after hitting 100%
P.S.: Now I know why japan had a release date 1-2 weeks before the US / EU release so they can beat that boss and sacrifice themselfes and help us because we are never able to keep up with that bullet hell action...
Just back up your data
the devs made a save pool with the characters in game names. kinda hits you right in the feels to see " Nier's data has been lost"
The final credit bullet hell game is designed to be completed with a group of small "triangles" shooting a wall of bullets in order to kill "bosses" faster. I will delete my saves because I had about 6 total strangers helping me through the final credit bullet hell game. After my game is deleted, my small "triangle" will appear in someone else's game no matter where s/he is, assisting that person through the final 2 minutes of bullet hell. I'm happy when I help someone
@Dovax I wonder if you survive without losing any of their data then do they get to keep their save data or does it go to someone else or is it just null and void??
@@hre2044 Booster fuel is booster fuel. The act of using it makes it irrecoverable.
@@hre2044 It deletes the data before it adds you as a triangle to help others? Wasn't that quite obvious.
@@hre2044 it goes to /dev/null
I felt no hesitation in deleting my own data. It's the least I could do for those who sacrificed their own data to help me reach this point. I look forward to playing this amazing game again.

When I clicked this video, I expected something along the lines of selling your OS chip. Boy, was I wrong.
Same here!
that what the game is trying to teach you.
Life is a never ending circle.
But the endings don't matter. It's all about the struggle within the circle.
So you need to be able to let go of your saves, to be able to go back and enjoy the journey all over again.
I've got a strange lack of attachment to my save data, on anything.
I've lost seriously developed Minecraft worlds literal dozens of times. I have over 2000 hours, I've definitely created at least 50 worlds, yet I only have 2 now.
I'd probably gladly give up my save data if it actually helped someone, and wasn't just to make space for a new save, however this is the first game to leave a real impact on me, so I'm not certain I'd let it go as easily.
I spent nearly 130 hours with this game and I don't regret deleting my save data. The final achievement I had left to get was the platinum trophy but what made this truly worth it was the fact that I could help someone else, just like the ones who helped me. That final trophy was named thank you. I remember crying after that and looking at the new title screen. It asked me if I wanted to start a new game. I turned off the console. One story, one playthrough, one save file, was more that enough for this lifetime. Thank you Yoko Taro.

Cringe
@nobodycaresaboutyourfuckin1895 lmao imagine going through the effort of commenting just to say cringe, you fweel bwetter now 🥺
@ash64181
Thank you for your sacrifice
the very first Nier game did the same thing, but it was for the benefit of one of the NPCs in the story that you basically erase yourself from existence.
Disqord thanks for mentioning. I hate the fact that people praise this so much ,without even knowing about the first one. Where it was so much more heartbreaking
XxkurokomiichanxX someone else remembers...I would do it again every time if it meant I could see her smile again.
And to think that a novel affirms that kaine retrieve nier again...
yeah but it was much harder to get to this final ending in the 1st game....
@@alrox9760 and now even a game 😆
I didn't backup my 45 hours save. I wanted to experience the heartbreak and the satisfaction/relief as intended by the developer.
I must say I regret nothing, not even a single bit.
You say this while sobbing on your keyboard
MM LK they delete any back up you do because they delete all the slots
KikoMasterRD KI/SFV what if you hide the save backup onto something like your desktop
Question does this make the platinum frustrating to get?
If you save your progress into a USB drive them you still can get the platinum
Yep, Yoko Taro strikes again.
70h gone. Just like that. I read the comments and I see people saying they got no regrets about deleting their save files. While I do feel happy that I'll get to help someone in the credits sequence, I also feel as empty as my currently saved data.... I feel actual loss. Congrats to Yoko Taro for this, but did you really have to mindfuck me to that extent? *wipes tears*
Yall fuckers better not let me die out there. ;_;
DON'T WORRY MAGGIE, I GOT YOU, LET'S FUCKING GOO
A game that questions morality, ends with a decision of helping other random human beings. Fucking brilliant.
Yoko you sadist making us watch as your blood sweat and tears but most probably tears are flushed into the void before your very eyes and then saving your data afterwards bravo lmao bravo.
remember all that pearl/black pearl, gold ore, meteorite (ore/shard), eagle eggs,...
hours and hours of loading and farming
gone.
If it of any consolation I had 100% weapons, missions, and files and deleted me everything
Cursed Dragon I like the Tatsumi profile there, chapter 56 cover art of Akame Ga Kill I believe.
I mean, what more reason would you have to play again from the end when you've 100%ed it?
But they did ask a bunch of times if you were sure...
Oh god, when they said *thank you...thank you for playing* I started tearing up :'(
@KeoneArt yeah, I just finished all 3 storylines and I could barely find myself interested in the characters, let alone getting emotional over them. But it affects people differently I guess.
they could have said "thank you for sacrificing XX hours of your lifetime to play this game" ;-)
@@FreakinSweet1987 I honestly get that... but most of the game 2B was flashing her butt at me so it affected me a little bit
Holy shit, this game really make the players asking their own morality, either sacrificing or not.
I rate
yoko taro/10
Made Arjuna oh it's more than just questioning my own morality
normally I wouldn't give a flying f**k about other players, but here... I refused to help because I know I can't emotionally afford to loose my save data and I am short on time to recreate this, and this refusal is TEARING me on the inside.
I will probably back it up on a USB before sacrificing the saves, yes it's cheating but I really feel like I've been backed into this corner
After having spent half the summer getting blown to ethical bits by playing "Life Is Strange," this just wasn't fair. But, I did it because of the players who sacrificed themselves so that I could beat the credits and see the ending, too.
(Mind you, as soon as I re-complete 92% of my missions and beef myself back up to Level 78, I'm not doing that again, no matter how many people help me out! Once is enough for this crap.)
I really want to write an article about this game, so it would be career suicide for me to give up chapter select. I can't fucking do that.
Maybe once I'm done the essay and have 100% completed the game.
Jugram Haschwalth play nier Replikat/gestalt first. They made it there first ,and way better ,you sacrifice yourself and save files for so much more. He just copied it here..like the rest of the game..kinda
Are you sure?
**Yes*
Are you really sure?

JUST END THIS FASTER I CANT EVEN SEE THE SCREEN BC OF MY TEARS
I think that giving up all my data is like finally letting 9S and 2B reunite somewhere in the vast universe. In the meantime, i give my 100hours gameplay to you dear stranger. may they serve you well.
Androids sacrificed themself to fight endless wars for Humanity. Is it too hard to one human to sacrificed himself to other human ?

@@SuperMario0972 thanks...
You have helped someone in the world and for that, I thank you.
Just finished this myself, and nothing will ever come close to this experience.
Thank you to everyone who helped me finish the game. I'll be joining you to help whoever needs it.
How does it work I thought I’d actually physically get to help someone but no I just gave up all my data for nothinnnnngggg 🥲
I sacrificed my data, then I replayed the entire game. Those players who gave up everything, they sacrificed it all for me to finish this game. Now, I join them.
How the hell did I get teary-eyed off a bullet-hell credits gag? Damn, you, Yoko Taro!
Wait, so what happened to the first person who ever beat the game? Did they get help from Yoko himself? There are no save files to save you if you're the very first.
There are some save files with 9s, 2B, A2 and some other names that help you
Every time I play a game I love and get that "Thank You for Playing" I always get a bit emotional, because of all the work the team has put into the game and all, but that has to be the most touching "Thank You for Playing" I have ever seen.
When it said someone you may intensely dislike I thought of my teacher and my body just naturally clicked no, I'm sorry
Edit: I do not dislike the teacher anymore, and I actually respect the amount of work that they do. I also understand that they got so many types of students that they have to deal with. I forgot why I disliked the teacher, but I was mad that I couldn't get a certain grade(high school). Reflecting back on it, it was very ridiculous to get angry over something like a grade
LMMFAO THIS COMMENT KILLED ME
nameisblob BOOOOOO BOOO THIS MAN
*Imagines intensely disliked person dying over and over again, their cries for help going unnoticed*
This is fine.
So, in selfishness you hate a person who taught you, to learn nothing but spite.
I'm sorry too.
What did it say when you said no?
This was honestly the most creative and thought out ending I have ever experienced in all the games I have played. I honestly didn’t think they could delete my saves I don’t regret anything.
Man i fell for this. I thought yoko wouldn't go far as to actually delete my save. I was devastated but then i said oh well i'll start over... till I remembered my cloud save which was automatically uploaded before this misfortune happened. The relief was unreal.
@@0uttaS1TE
[The annihilation] begins
I sacrificed myself because i played the final ending without network connection so i didn't know other people could help me. It took sooo long and the final parts where freaking hard. After i didn't get past this section i googled how other people did this and i was shocked. I suffered so long only to see how much easier this actually was...
ohh I was so lucky I randomly decided to turn on the network features just before that. And It was just cause I was bored and scrolled through some endings
Is this the part on the credit screen? I didn’t get help at all?? Other than when shooting the credits a bunch of planes joined me…
I was connected to the network, but since I had no reinforcements at first, I thought something was wrong with my internet connection. Luckily it was just a slow build-up, which made it more satisfying.

That was your help
I wonder what if Yoko Taro collab with Hideo Kojima

and tetsuya Nomura
Super Ultimate UA-camr and they said to Konami "friendship ended with Konami, now Yoko Taro is my best friend"
"Do you wish to remove the game and achievements from your collection and destroy all of the game's data from your hard disk/bluray?"
And you wondered why the physical copy of the game used a BD-RE disk.
Jack Sparrow said it best: "Take what you can, give nothing back!"
GHFire lol
*Captain
Finally, the world has seen your brilliance, Yoko Taro.
For the glory......of gaming. /salute
/YorRHa Unit 'MV' shutdown.
Glory to Gaming. /salutes/
Yoko Taro does it again. Atleast you have a choice to delete your files...
Jazzmaster_J you had a choice in the original game too
That's some Kojima-level shit right there. Amazing.
smokebomb.exe Kojima be like
"what the hell is this?"
*Kojima heavy breathing*
Get the fuck outta here, kojima aint touching this.
smokebomb.exe
Man, Yoko Taro has been pulling a Kojima before Kojima started making games.
He's been doing it since Drakengard 1
This is actually not the first time Taro did this. Check out the first NieR game back in 2010, it delete save files as well...
yeah my save got deleted before my very eyes... T.T but why do I feel satisfied ....
Yoko sensei... why you do this !
because you did the right thing. you offered help to another person, without a promise of reward, knowing that you were basically throwing away your progress to do so. but hey. you can always play again.
Gasai Yuno its a fun game that's why and you get to play again
Because I'm actually dumb and I thought it would pull out a Bravely Second, but no...
Good thing is that now I can spend another 10 hours catching all the fishes! WOOOOOOOOOO
I felt bad to see my 34 hours of this game disappear before my very eyes. Oh well, I wanted to replay it on Hard anyways.
Lol replay on hard, i do my 1st play on hard xDDD Now im thinking to go on expert :D
Yoko Taro you flipping did it again
I pressed no and closed the game, but then I just felt bad so I launched it back up and redid the credits and deleted my save. It felt like it was the most accomplished thing I have done in my life.
hello dear ceo of gulag
I used ps+ to backup data and delete my save to help someone else and to see the new title screen but later i restore all my data hehe and i feel so evil hehehe
I tried. I tried so hard. Kept soloing the mission, yelling, "Go, little pod! Go!", but eventually I had to ask for help.
Thank you everyone who uploaded.
Sacrificed my save for you wonderful people in return.
Windows Pod 10 : Do you wish to repair computer? Yes/No
Task failed successfully
Did anyone else break down in tears while deciding to help like omg it was so emotional for me...
I kept a mental note of a few of the names of people who had made the sacrifice, and messaged them, thanking them profusely.
Very wholesome.
Make a mental note to go into an asylum
People have sacrificed their own data just to help a total stranger that died more than he should during the end credit scene. Of course I'll sacrifice my own save for this.
this is a nice lil touch in the players' emotion, after all those hours we have spent in this game... thank you Nier: Automata, thank you for the amazing ride. i will never forget about this game
I deleted my save data to help others. NO RAGRETS. Thanks to those who deleted theirs to help me.
This was heartwarming. I sacrificed mine, feelsgoodman.
Thank you.
I saved my data because I don’t want to help them. This ending make no sense!
@@tuanz8009 it's simple:
Are you ready to sacrifice everything you've done till this point to help and save others in their final fight for the true ending or are you too selfish and leave them alone
This is honestly amazing. I couldn't care less about helping someone else, but I really like the interaction. And since the game saved something at the end, I'm pretty sure this will lead to a new hidden ending.
Probably.
I kinda doubt it
I said the same thing with Nier Replicant/Gestalt...
Not a hidden ending. This unlocks the TRUE ending of the game.
The fact that it's randomly chosen who gets the ending (only who RECEIVED it gets the ending) seems to make it needlessly aggravating, though.
It's that impossible beat the final boss without help?
The final boss can be beat alone. The Bullet Hell section before the question to sacrifice your data changes, as far as I understand from what I could gather (which isn't that much, but seemingly a little above the average).
Let's just say that the true ending ends with all playable characters "alive", for once. Of course, both due to being machines and the conditions of the ending (which I won't dwell on), the three aren't literally alive.
Thanks to you I've just finished this credits level. Thank you.
I also deleted my files after that level to help other players.
I just went through this. I hope the guy who gets my help is thankful. that was painful as hell
Thank you.
Yeah, now imagine if it was your actual life instead, and someone else rejected your help.
Ern de Che stfu
Surprisingly.. I haven't been this happy with my own choice since... well Undertale
Boy, was I having Undertale flashbacks with this ending.
...
'Cept we couldn't put Asriel back together, like we could the androids.
George-Douglas Price yep,
So this is where people finish their game, farewell to the save data, and sell their disc to 2nd hand store :3
Zelo Reinhart
And in that case, the game gets bought for a lower price if it has been used. So perhaps any person who reaaaally wants to play this game but doesn't have the money to buy it in full-price will be lucky too.
In the end, you help people in more than one way! :D
And if you bought it on steam? The players sacrifice could be to create a gift code, and as another one buys this game foe e.g. half the price, your installation is removed...
Thank you, thank you for your sacrifice. Without people like you, i may never be able to complete the game. But i wonder how some people who completed the game first can clear this without help.
It's possible, just very difficult. Honestly everything in NieR is tame compared to some other bullet-hell games.
Not that I could beat those other games either, but some people do.
The devs put their saves in first.
Recently just did this, erased my data on pc without backing any save files and it just gives me a reason to play this amazing game again from scratch
Thank you to those who lost their save data to help others we all appreciate it and sorry that I just couldn't delete mine but hopefully one day I'll build up the courage
It's funny how one of the most meaningful moments in the history of gaming, despite coming in 2017, is entirely text based.
Fun fact, Your data is used for people going for the true ending, During the credit shooter minigame. Your data is only truly lost if they fuck up and get the barrier you provide them all exploderized.
Theres something just so… bigger than yourself seeing all of that effort gone but knowing it was done so that someone somewhere out there could smile at their game and help the next person.
probably unlike most people, seeing my saves deleted in front of me didn't hurt. I actually felt pretty good and am kinda happy I did it to help someone even if only a little. surprised the hell outta me but still
NWARDZ
Me too, man! Me too. :)
In my opinion, *THIS* is the only way to *TRULY* beat this game!
NWARDZ so you can still use your cloud backup data? well good to hear that
Vincentius Ryan nope I have no backup data. my PS4 didn't backup any of my saves like it does for other games so im back at square one.
I can't repeat this enough: "You will disappear from this world, your sister, your friends, everyone in your life met will forget you. You and any sign you ever existed will be erased."
My first full playthrough was around 50 hours, didn’t explore, never upgraded weapons, barely did sidequests and I decided to do this. Now i’m playing through again, now on the final route with A2 and 9S, at 40 hours, almost all weapons unlocked and upgraded to at least level3. Playing the completionist way never seemed fun to me, but now that i’m doing it I never would’ve guessed it would be this fun. This game is amazing.
Didn't help anyone and I'm proud of it.
This is the only way to fully experience what this game has to offer. Not the post game stuff. Not getting all the achievements. This sacrifice right here is the pinnacle.
Just went through with the deletion and it definitely felt sucky but I’m glad I’m able to put more love into the game and the players who come after me. Thank you for the help random strangers.
I love how this game made (almost) all of their gamers come together to help one another
When I did it for the first time, I cried so hard that even my friends look at me so depressed, but I have no regrets, those question that Pod 042 made me where the cherry on my top. and thank you for all you who made this choice.
This makes me tear up, like this is emotional af.
hey man I just came here to comment thank you for doing that and helping someone else get to ending E!
Wow I just got this ending and man this masterpiece was definitely worth the 40 hour grind. Now I’m finally ready to play Replicant
What does 'helping another player' actually do?
what does it? for reals
a "true" true ending 'w')
Well, for the the guys who quit the game prematurely, anyway '-')/
in the credits you have to fight the credits like a shrumps game and you will recieve help there because is imposible to beat it alone
I believe that if you refuse to give up your save, you go through the true ending [e], where you do a bullet hell mini game and receive "the help"
no because after you finish the bullet hell mini game you are asked this same question
I couldn't bear to do it...after spending days and hours of playing...you're really brave.
I just heard of this ending through the grapevine, but seeing it in action gave me chills.
Ah I remember getting this through my first playthrough(total, not endings), I had over 40+ hrs and I still done it. I never felt so relieved despite knowing how fruitless it may be. So I'm playing the game again, but I plan to 100% it this time(side quests, ending, secret dialogue, everything).
Dang, man.
Never had an ending touch me in this way before. I was sobbing for about an hour straight afterwards.
well I lost everything today thinking that was a prank or something, i guess now i have to beat the game in hard, 5 long days lost... at least it will help someone!
seeing all the other player’s data helped me in the end, i also chose that my data to be deleted just to help the others as well
I didn't want to see spoilers for something I still have to get in my game but it's great to see the 'sacrifice your data' thing from the first Nier back.
I'll use this comment section to say thank you to everyone who helped me in the ending credits. Sadly I wasn't able to see your gamer tags but know this I'm grateful for your assist. Thank you
Never in my life would I consider doing this...you are insane my man 😂
... esto es probablemente la idea de un sacrificio.
los datos guardados son esencialmente memorias, recuerdos, todas nuestras experiencias pasadas, y lo que nos hace quienes somos, para algunas personas perder las memorias puede significar perderlo todo, incluyéndote a ti mismo como eres, sin siquiera saber que existías.
Aunque claro el sacrificio aquí no son tus recuerdos esos los tienes sino tu tiempo, tu valioso tiempo. las decenas de horas de tu vida voluntariamente impuestas en el juego para completarlo al 100%, probablemente lo recuerdes todo, no podrás presumirle a nadie que completaste el juego pero ayudarás a alguien a completarlo y eso en si ya es bastante noble.
Ok, I got this... must help the weak... ~gulp~
Save it on a USB drive, you're good. X3
Doesn't work. Yoko Taro came to my house with a gun and shot the USB drive.
give him your girls
Plus, you can reload the save data from the USB drive, replay Ending E, and sacrifice your save data endlessly, thus literally spamming other players with help!
If you decide to save the data, can you still do it later?
And does it delete just one file, or all three at once?
Lars Everything. EVERYTHING!
I haven't even played this game and this has to be the most painful gaming experience ever.
There goes 60+ hours. What a game
“Oh yeah sure I don’t mind helping other players” “this will erase your data” “…..yup fuck that”
Game Developers need to do this more often. Sacrificing your own file to save a stranger's files... Thats some insanely sad gamepley but hell is it worth it.
THANK YOU SORA AND THE OTHERS THAT HELPED ME AT THE LAST STAGE IN THIS ENDING
I don't know how many more tears will this game have me shed.
You know what would have been cool? The closer the player is to completing the game 100% when they choose to sacrifice their save file, the stronger their little arrow pod thing is when it gets summoned to help someone else.
No regrets here, the person I saved found me randomly on steam reviews. I guess I got my thanks from a 1 to a million chances. All the more worth throwing 60 hours, but I could never play it again after that.
I didn't beleived they were actually deleting others people save data to help me through the credits so I didn't take the messages seriously (no other game have ever done that). So when It asked me to delete my data I said no.
Then I found out that they trully deleted other players saves to help me and I felt so bad that I didn't help on my own at that time that I immediately played the credits again to sacrifice my data in order to help other players in need.
Message for Pod 153 and Pod 042: Do not feel sad or sorry that our journey is at an end. Instead, be happy and thankful you were able to experience this journey with us, the players. Though you will not remember us, now that our save data is deleted, we will never forget you, and will always cherish the times we've spent together, which will hold a special place in our hearts. And with that, we bid you farewell. And thank you for having us play Nier: Automata.
Someone who hasnt played the game would read the title and think, why the hell is this on a boss fight channel.
Okay
Good thing I saw this. I thought it only deletes the current save file. Didn't know it deletes all 3 save files. I'll just watch the ending on UA-cam
I sacrificed mine, hours gone down the drain. For the glory of mankind
This ending was so awsome because you have to actually sacrifice something "real" to help/get a really good ending. I must said that they really get me in the kokoro.
The whole game is about how valuable memory is. Then tests if you’re bigger than just yourself.
Brilliant ending, I reached this earlier today, I feel many emotions
I just want to say thank you to anyone who gave up their save data to help me beat that final part
after 50 hours into the game i decided to sacrifice my data for help someone but basically just because i want to restart this game another time by lvl. 1 lol.
I think you get a different title screen if you sacrifice yourself as well.
This was awesome. To have been able to be part of a collective experience during a time that there is really no collectiveness possible.... damn. And yes, to you, random stranger struggling with this fantastic game, I AM rooting for you. And now, we must say goodbye.
i wouldve deleted but i spent 200 hours to get the platinium, 40 hours after this question, im thankful for everyone who helped me and sacrficed themselves!
Oh man there’s no way I could’ve gotten through the bullet hell section at the end without help
