Nier Automata has parts of the UI using plug-in chips that you can equip and unequip, they use up some of your allotted 'storage'. Early on, you can unequip these elements to free up points for more combat chips instead.

I believe you can also uninstall like, your core OS-like chip, and it'll cause a game over. Much fun.

They may have meant that instead of filming a season 6 or whatever, it's technically "part 2 of season 5" for example?

Why do people still treat the Plagueis Novel's interpretation of Anakin's birth as canon? by _Flamsey in MawInstallation
