What happens when you choose to "Save a Stranger's Life" after ending E. This game has been a beautiful piece of Art. Well done to everyone who worked on it. Subscribe: tinyurl.com/bl... Twitter: tinyurl.com/jmf...
I'm very interested to see what you guys think about this ending. What do you think choosing this option actually does? Leave a comment and give me your thoughts.
F - 22 but i think this moment was fulfilling if you choose to sacrifice your data to help a stranger get to the happy ending. the way 9s sacrificed his data to save 2b in the beggining. when 2b sacrificed herself to save 9s in the beginning of part c. and a2 saving 9s at the end. making the decision to sacrifice my data to rescue someone else made me feel closer to these characters. it wasnt a hard decision to make because im willing to play this dope game all over again.
I *think*, and I might be wrong, only one person might be needed to 'rescue' you, and thats the one data thats used, and then it just pulls other people who have given up their data. I have no idea though, not sure about the mechanics going on with it but I'm really curious as to how it works.
the bullet hell is literally impossible. when you reach a certain point, the letters get invincible... so the point here is that we help each other out of selflessness.
level 99, 100 hours of gameplay, platinum trophy. I cried during that outro chorus then gave my save file after. Hope it helps someone out, what a game :)
Heck there were more warnings this time around then in the first nier And people still made 20 minute long rant videos and freaked the heck out (despite half of them having backed up their files already)
@@housemouseshorts how did the first players get to ending e then? If the first players who got the game when it came out no one had beaten the text so how did the people who tried to get ending e get help? You have to finish the game to get the option to save someone else so the first player didn't have that option lol
That ending bullet hell was a nightmare. I made it nearly to the end with no damage, then everything went to shit. Death after death. Thank you everyone who sacrificed yourselves to help the rest of us
Cole Jenkins same. I didn't start dying until shit got real. I'm glad that I can help someone else get ending E even if there were things I still wanted to do in the game
You know it did nothing though right? There plenty of bots in that sequence for the first ever players (and some players went through like 30 helpers lol) I mean, lie to yourself if you want but it's just a feels trap (a good one at that but it falls apart with minimal thought)
Hentai Maestro back up your save data then do it. Because to be quite honest while I'm all for helping people out and being selfless, I don't think I want to delete all that work and have to do every single thing all over again
A true test of selflessness, packing hours upon hours of grinding finding and fighting to unlock to experience and to enjoy yourself...And the game asks you, simply to let it all go just to help a random person who you may or may not know, hate or love. If you had the conviction to give that all away some that someone somewhere can have an extra life-You guys are the true meaning of humanity
Takacuntoi Senpai!!! I pumped 62 hours in and got 100% in everything thing but fishing. It took me 20 hours just to get ending y. It was not easy to do all of that. But hey, if you can't say goodbye at the end, did you ever really play.
I don't regret deleting everything after my first playthrough, cos, that moment of losing everything you have with no data restore lets you experience the game in its essence, personally living through their grief. So for those who circumvented the main intent of this, they would never be able to feel that moment of loss. Not that it's absolutely needed for a game that already hits you with a mother load of feels.
i could never back up my save... it takes away the impact and real sacrifice to help another player in need beat the final boss and save the characters they care about most. its beautiful to think a game would does something awful to you then gives you the player a chance to make everything right by breaking the fourth wall like crazy
My husband and I sacrificed our save data, I hope we are out there helping out others get to the final ending. There was something very moving and touching about it, and we sat crying in silence as we watched the game wipe itself out. We have an archive of the file, as we have most our games, but have never touched it again after sacrificing it. It feels wrong to do so. May we be able to aid another crying out for help.
Thanks to the 4 people who sacrificed their save data so I could reach Ending E. You are restoring faith in humanity, hence why I sacrificed my own data too! God I love this game...
"You're tough. Just remember, take it one step at a time." I hope my message is able to reach other players and help them have a good experience in their journey throughout this beautiful game
All I know is, ending E was a nightmare because my stubborn ass refused to accept any result but completing it solo. Thank you Touhou games, but even you did not help me from dying hundreds of times to the credits. T^T
Sora Blue Yeah I tried that too...but then I accidently started the whole thing over, so I gave in and accepted help. That's really why I chose to delete my data. I felt I owed someone for the help. If you beat it without help. You deserve to keep your data If you gave up your data anyway, then your a motherf***ing hero.
I also didn't accept help at first as I wasn't quite sure what it would do. But after another 10 deaths I gave in and was pleased to see the positive results.
I didn't delete. I'm gonna do Super Hard Mode, then it'll be worth it. The person who gave their info so I could beat Hard Mode, I will make your sacrifice strong. I will beat the hardest mode, and I will prove that I deserved my Data. And then, I'll pass the torch.
Now if I go to a friends house that says they played nier and beat it, and don't see the menu background that's activated when you sacrifice your saved data. I'll know that they are not my friends anymore.
I gave up my level 99 save file yesterday after getting my platinum trophy, I'm just so happy that I can be a part of many players final fight for them
I denied. I wanna 100% this game before I fully commit to doing this. Thanks to the people that helped me during the Ending E mini game though. VERY appreciated. Look out for me though, I'll be helping someone out soon.
Another important point, pod 042 is the ultimate hero of this history, we need and we should demand another spectacular game with it as main character.
To everyone who deleted their data to help us… thank you for helping us. I wasn’t gonna help anyone until I remembered someone deleted their hard work to help. So I did the same thing to help someone out. Thank you guys
So I didn't know this was coming. Just got to ending E tonight. 70% of trophies, 66hrs of gameplay. There were a few straggler side quests I was going to use ch select to go back and do; I hadn't even gotten to do the DLC I paid for and get to see 2B in her hubba hubba outfit... But I couldn't not do it. Someone sacrificed their save for me and I felt it was my duty to do the same. I took a loving final glance at my new title screen, wiped my tears, took the disc out and put it in its case and back onto the shelf and deleted the game off my HD. Thank you devs and SE for this, the most unique game experience I've ever had.
This game is not a game it's a Masterpiece of a human mind, a possibility what our mind can achieve.. most games have roughly 2-4 ending RPG type, however this particular game have so many different endings depending on your choice.
I wanna confess. At the ending, tired of died again and again so I didn't pay attention to message much,just saw do u need additional help? I took it and fearlessly rushed to all names raining down on screen, died several times. didn't know those lives were from sacrifice. I'm sorry guys T-T
Anan Sang Don't worry. The game itself pretty.much tells you that can happen. Part of what makes the ending impactful is that they tell you every possible future your sacrifice can bring, and it's still worth it.
That background picture... Is the only... the only and unique memory of your feat. The last data remained from all your effort, as a beautiful image. _oh no, the ninjas are cutting onions again!!_
I just couldn't bring myself to do it... I worked really hard to get to where I am, so it would be too much for me to handle emotionally... also I am joining the army so I know I will not have the time to do it again any time soon god it feels bad no matter what I do
Itai Sprachman You can cheat the choice, and just copy your save data somewhere on USB or something, then do it. Afterwards just reupload the save data XD
Itai Sprachman If you know you are gona put the game down forever, its best to donate the save file. once i 100%'ed the game k went and played the final fight again, beat the cedits again, and then deleted it all
oh banana had I known I could do what you just said I would not have given my data the first time. I probably wouldn't 100% the game but I would go back to this choice once I was done. Well too late now
Not really an irony. People have got Yohra bots helping them as well, when the pods explode, they show the name of who lost their save and names of Yohra bots showed as well as the developers. Works on offline.
After you get the rescue offer, you become practically invincible but it's still difficult to finish the bullet hell part as you can barely see from the tears in your eyes.
i couldn t do it, so i still got the other background screen, but still, this is pretty and I love how they put this special place right there ^^ anyway, thus ending is so sad :C
I just finished the game right now 07.13.2020_9:76pm_ Lvl 78_ 678,998G_ 76% weapons 87% Intel 16/26 Endings 36:57 hours of total play time. But I still sacrifice my save for the sake of others.(and quite possibly for the symbolic title screen, but who knows what made me do it). I gotta say that for my very first RPG game of whatsoever, I felt many emotions for this game.
Not sure if those that have helped me on this ending, but thank you so much for your efforts. And I hope that I may have helped someone as well reach the ending.
I had someone named zero two along with many others save me so thanks and thanks to everyone who choose this option you really are quite the individual!
Set difficult to easy before start the final boss and ecquip all the auto-chips (usable only on easy mode) than let the AI to complete the whole minigame...you won't need any online help *_#
i think this is Yoko Taro´s way to say "learn to let go" yet at the same time to prove the human player can actually do the oposite of what led humanity to extinction, and to actually have a happy ending since by his words the previous installments (nier gestalt/replicant and Drakengard 1,2,3) don´t really have a happy ending, since they are the history of a human being and those in real life usually don´t end well, but 2B, 9S and A2 are androids, they are not human so maybe they can have a better end reather than a human´s end and I maybe reading too mutch into this and I may be wrong but at the end we are asked to give up our bloody past (our combat data gattered trough the game) so somebody else may have a bright future (ending E) well that is what i think.
I felt that it was the game's final point hammering home its message. That you should be keeping disassociated external backups in case something does go wrong and you need to take the nuclear option by making you live through having to wipe everything. That is, unless you did learn, and kept a pre-corrupted backup that you could restore from at a later date.
I thought more like humans clinging too much to life that they would kill and kill, and even build machine to keep them going through data, shackling them down from just living their lives and so forth. But now that the memory of the extinct humans is gone, the new can move forward and hopefully build a better world. I remember Yoko saying how he didn't want to reward players after they just slaughtered waves and waves of people, spirits, and possibly machines. I like your theory though
i didn't delete my save the first time because i wanted to get all the trophies and experience all the effort that went into this beautiful game and i guess i wanted to ready myself for the players i will hopefully help. So keep going knowing you got people who've got your back, me included
When i first did this i though it was a troll but shiittt deleted everything..but gave me a chance to play though again and unlock more stuff faster and make better plug in chip builds and within 5 days..i had endings A to E all over again and now on F
Chris Gerald Ryuzaki Andersson ..well the best lvl to end it all is 99 and once you play it again i just knew where everything was and was able to fly though the game. iam currently working on ending Y
w0w well im i already finish the 'E' but nothing happend and yah i delete all of the data because of that pod 043 , and now im playing it agian now im lvl 45 again XD
I got the platinum, did every quest, collected (and read) every bit of Intel, read every weapon story. Then I deleted my data. I recently started replaying the game for the 1 year anniversary of NieR automata, and I'm finally getting to see the dlc that I bought but never started!
Who would ever think of this on a game. "9/10" When someone help me finish the Ending, it made me cried because I thought I wont ever get the ending. Also realizing, thier sacrificed data was destroyed and lost forever because It protected me from death... thinking about it, kinda it sad there data is no more. So, I wont sacrifice yet because I need to do more things in the game, doing the side quest and unlock all endings. Thank you for the sacrifice I will continue.
Thanks for those who sacrifised their save data. I got ending E with help of those people. I'll do this too right after DLC release 03.05.2017 and it doesn't matter that i spent 70 hours... I'll play agian in this masterpiece game with pleasure.
I dont know who you are but i really really wanna thank all of the players who sacrificed their data so they could help me get the E ending and eventually the platinum trophy
I just did this myself. I'll admit it, throughout that whole ending I was crying not-so-manly tears. Knowing that there were folks out there that sacrificed their save files to help me just kinda...yeah. Of course, I gave up mine as well....and then forgot I didn't finish all the endings so I didn't get the Transcendent Being achievement. Oh well - game's so damn awesome I'll happily play through it again.
Damn I'm starting to feel selfish for not sacrificing my save this is something I definitely need to do when I feel like I completed everything I want to complete while also being ready for a 2th playthrough
Nier: Automata, the only game for which I probably accepted to help someone I dislike with all my heart around the world or around my country... and I felt more human doing that.
I felt obligated to delete my save file because I accepted help, but I hadn't even gotten close to 100% completing the game. I just got ending C, decided to use chapter select to get ending D and see what happened... then before I knew it my data was gone. So I am basically replaying the game and trying to avoid getting ending E until I've done everything else this time. You REALLY feel the loss when you weren't finished with your file yet but they put you in that awkward bind of having to redo everything afterwards. At least it's easier the second time...
If I do the ending E, choose to help, then start over, the game understands that I already did the ending E and let me win the Transcendent Being trophy without doing this ending again?
Im a little guilty that I didnt sacrifice my save at first because I didnt have taken platinum trophy in ps4 yet, but as soon as I did I replayed the credits to sacrifice it and express my preference to 2b with the message :P
When I got here there were still things I wanted to do in the game and I wasn't sure about giving up my save. But after seeing all the players who gave up their save data to help me; not giving my data to someone else just feels like a dick move. Goodbye Nier Automata
The lesson here is that not everything is permanent and all would come to an end someday. Just like our data is in this game. That's why you savor every moment you spend here and appreciate the game because soon it'll also come to an end.
Blue? Hmm, I prayed for a few bodies named "blue" and also was helped by a "blue" at the end, even tho it's not 100% that's it's you, thank you kind Android, Glory to Mankind
I had to go through the ending credits battle alone and spent hours and hours untill by miracle i beat it, i wanted to sacrifice my data but after that why would i help someone while being all alone with no help so changed my mind the last second
