::: spoiler It's still my favorite game. The ending hit me so hard; had me messed up for a while. I just started Clair Obscure: Expedition 33 in hopes of having a game hit me as hard as Nier: Automata did. spoiler :::
My main gripe is that replaying the story as 9s can get pretty slow, and the combat isn't nearly as enjoyable.
