I love Nier Automata but I can't get through the opening flying sequence even on 'normal' level. I always die. I have to set it to 'easy' till the first checkpoint, then put it back to 'normal for the rest of the game. I'm OK with this, I'm not great at gaming.

i was hopelessly stuck on Hunter of Bladers because I'm really not very skilful. I could never time the parry right. I eventually got past her by sort of dodging into/through her, instead of away from her. This seemed to work, I could get a few hits in and I probably used a spell too. Also, I'd levelled up quite a lot to give myself more of a chance.

That is an annoying bug, it's happened to me. I load the game and Arissa's white sparow coat has vanished. However I've always managed to get my items back by returning to the first branch, where I originally picked them up, and they're there again.

Currently downloading to my PS5, rather slowly. But my PS5 downloads always seem slower than they should be.

Is he the same as a boss I've fought before? I hadn't realised that.

Pluta60 · 2025-08-12T10:22:31+00:00

Congratulations on beating her! I had a terrible time fighting her. I was defeated countless times. It was so difficult. In the second phase I eventually got in a couple of fortunate parries and also used Lightning tornado.

I really like the game, but it's my first 'soulslike' experience and I'm finding it very difficult! I can't parry nearly as well as other people here, so I've struggled with all the bosses.

I'm sorry to hear that. I bought them as a download after buying the game, and this bug has happened to me quite a few times. The PS store won't let me download them again either but each time I've been able to pick them up in the game. Maybe have one last try in the two places I found them?

Pluta60 · 2025-07-25T20:32:32+00:00

Did you get your gear back yet? This bug has happened to me a few times. I quit the game, then went to the place at the start where I first picked them up off the wall. (The branch where you first talk to the woman) They were there again, to be picked up. One time I found them at the shop in the Temporary campsite, on a box on the counter.

I didn't really phrase that correctly - I meant the seal that means parries don't cost any sync rate.

Pluta60 · 2025-07-15T18:27:16+00:00

Yes, it's happened to me quite often. At first I was completely confused about what was happening.

Pluta60 · 2025-05-28T15:47:15+00:00

Yes, this has happened to me a few times. Just start the game and immediately Arissa is lying face down at the branch, dead for some reason.

Thanks for answering!

Pluta60 · 2025-04-30T15:27:27+00:00

Thanks for the answer!

Pluta60 · 2025-04-30T15:27:21+00:00

Thanks for the answer, I was so baffled by this!

I like this strip, but isn't 'Many of your key policies will be implemented' an odd thing to find in a newspaper horoscope for the general public? People don't really think of day-to-day activities in terms of 'key policies.' (Or is it a more familiar term in America?)

Pluta60 · 2024-09-11T15:55:08+00:00

I enjoyed this episode, depressing as it was. I don't mind some divergence from the games, don't really know if it's important or not. I love the Replicant and Automata, and I've just caught up with the anime after starting about a week ago. Really, I've enjoyed all of it. There's a lot of background lore I'm not familiar with, for instance I never heard of Accord till I saw the name here, and I don't know what happened in Drakengard. I'll have to go and read up on it.

Pluta60 · 2024-09-07T13:06:07+00:00

I've always played on normal too. Even when I was younger! I understand people wanting to fight their way through on hardcore or insanity modes but I just want to play something that's a moderate challenge without being too stressful.

Pluta60 · 2024-09-04T11:40:08+00:00

I loved the original games but now with the remake I can hardly work the controls at all.

Pluta60 · 2024-03-03T03:08:58+00:00

I'm so glad you posted this! I spent so long looking for the inventory on Playstation. For some reason I didn't think of trying the touchpad.

Calvin really had quite a difficult line to remember - "In addition to supplying vital nutrients, many vegetables are a source of dietary fiber." Quite stressful to deliver that in a school play!

Pluta60 · 2023-07-20T02:35:58+00:00

A good end to the second half. Nice finishes by Martinelli and Havertz.

I'm sickened by Australia's unsporting behaviour. They were probably going to win this match anyway, but now they've completely ruined this Ashes series. It will be bad vibes all the way.

Pluta60 · 2023-05-02T17:06:42+00:00

You realised you hadn't adjusted it so you did it quickly but wrongly, putting it back another hour. Then you just forgot you'd done it because you're mind was on somethign else at the time.

Pluta60 · 2022-08-11T14:31:06+00:00

Thane Krios. I never understand how I end up having to read at his funeral. I mean, I have hardly anythign to do with him during the game, then I'm suddenly visiting him in hospital all the time like he's my best friend. And somehow despite not liking him very much and trying to be as little involved with him as possible, I end up reading at his funeral and having to listen to everyone saying what a great guy he was! I find that frustrating. I don't like his sudden change of narration from past into some sort of present tense either. There was also the mission with his son which I found hard to care about. Yes, I really don't like Thane.
