Trust me, it's really good. Most games nowadays fail to realise the potential of the medium to tell stories through interaction. Whilst they may not necessarily benefit from being a movie, a book or TV show, you could envision their stories being told that way. Yoko Taro's recent release NieR:Automata, however, utilises every aspect of games to such an extent that its incredibly powerful story could not be told through another medium (especially relevant given there's a NieR:Automata anime in the works now too). In this episode of Writing on Games, I attempt to break down why that is by analysing the story in detail, ending spoilers and all. #nierautomataanime --- Took footage for one cutscene from Boss Fight Database due to my capture card freaking out. Thanks! --- Thank you all SO much for your continued support. Whether you support the Patreon, subscribed or just watch the video, I just want to say thank you—people like you are changing my life for the better every day. ---
