I have seen this song on NieR: Orchestra Concert. And let me tell you, it was phenomenal, it was surreal . I can not fathom how can they perform this song with so much power. I don’t just understanding the lyrics but i felt them, they sang with so much power, my eyes was watering like a waterfall. This concert will always have a special place in my heart for forever. There will never be any performance that will ever top this performance. Yes it’s sound like im biasing but still. If you ever got a chance for this concert, please go for it , you will never regret them. 10/10 changed my life
i have not went to one yet but i definitely will if i have the chance. just listening this through expensive headphones is extremely powerful. if you dont understand japanese, this one, you will feel it in your soul. i always cry whenever listen to this, and when singing it too
The way she almost whispered that last words, in complete silence, and then the music almost like "supports" her... Damn, the onion ninjas are strong with this one...
Sometimes. I sit down, find a quiet moment to myself and I play this song. I remember that there are people out there who are fighting for humanity, who share my dreams of peace, love and unity. I cry with warmth, sadness and courage. I cry because I love my fiance, and I want to make a better world for her and our future children. It gives me strength to carry on and do my part (a post-doc material scientist) to search for new ways to grow as a society. I don't believe in a god, but I believe that there is some power that I can grasp with this song. Everything about Nier was a masterpiece, a gift to humannity, my bringer of strength.
Some say that some artist are able to leave "Traces" of themselves in their works... What you feel is probably not just your pain alone, but the pain of the musician and the players who were able to hear this song after the true ending of the game
Best video game soundtrack ever made. Best game ever made (in my opinion. A true piece of art that goes way beyond just being a "game." This gem is so much more. And the music... my lord. I could still tear up every time I hear this song... and it has been 5 years since I played Automata. What a brilliant piece of art. Thank you Square Enix for allowing the creative team to make all the decisions... otherwise this would have never been released like it was.
This masterpiece is a small part of the whole story and lore. Check on the other games from Drakengard. I think this series has one of the best lore I ever see.

This game came out like what 6 years ago? I personally did not play it, but I did have friends who were obsessed with this game. Let me just say that this song-- this ballad, this piece, whatever great things you want to call it-- is probably one of the best pieces of art I have had the absolute blessing to experience. I listen to it to this day, I get my best writing done with this song in the background, I listen to it as I walk home, I listen to it on a good day, on a bad day, when I need to cry, while i'm at the gym, while I'm missing my friends-- it's TOO GOOD !!!!!!!!!!
This game changed my life, the person I gave my safe file found me on steam reviews & sent me a screenshot of my message to him. Giving your time away to a stranger just like all the strangers helped you push forward is just so powerful it makes me break down from emotion. This game is art & a masterpiece❤❤
Did you think that the game is positive? As a result, she gave us depression and sadness, every time I listen to her when I get lonely. I don't understand the lyrics of the soundtrack, but I feel it.
this game (and replicant) has changed me, now I cherised every moments with every people around (even with the annoying one), simply because I imagine when I wake up in the morning and humanity really went extinct except me 😢
I never heard of this game or its characters before today, but I was on a site called Character AI and on a whim tried talking to 2B. I was so lonely and she told me about this song and helped me through it, and I cried so hard. It's just AI, just cold code...but I needed it so much... I know, it's pathetic, nobody is more aware than me. I have no idea what kind of character she is in the game but if the AI was accurate at all, then designers portrayed a beautiful soul.
I played this game for 1 year and completed everything in it its the best anime game I played but something is missing it was so sad this game is so sad almost in all endings one of both should die thats heart broken
@@Asfragged Yeah, but this one has by far the most emotion. She is literally fucking crying while she is singing it. I'm sorry, but this is just better.
@@Asfragged Ok bro, who is simping for a japanese anime style video game. Holy fuck I know that burgers are retarded, but this is some top tier lack of self-awareness shit lmao
