I have hundreds of hours in the Nier and Drakkengard games so I can't wait to see this. I hope Jun Eishima has some involvement in this.

Anyone knows what about A2 or main story? Perhaps the main story will be like A/B endings.

It's fine if you plug controller.

I'm talking about some graphical problems like with resolution. Playing with pad is better anyway.

Nah. They're not there anymore.

my guess is that they will copy what Tekken Bloodline did and that is making the fighting scenes 3D while talking scenes are in 2D but im fine with that too
