2017's Nier Automata is one of the best games of the early 21st Century. In this in-depth video, I analyze how the game uses its medium to express philosophical themes and ideas in a direct fashion.
Along the way, I broadly cover related thinkers like Jean Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, & Blaise Pascal. I also discuss how the game deals with topics like war, humanism, and the one thing video games can alter on the fly that no other mediums can: their context.
***********
"NieR: Automata is an action RPG directed by Yoko Taro and developed by Platinum Games and published by Square Enix. It aims to retain the originality of Nier while presenting more appealing gameplay. It is set in the same universe as Nier but features a separate story in which robots are sent to reclaim Earth from an alien invasion after humanity was exiled to the Moon."
