This.Why?
Playing through NieR and getting all the endings takes a good amount of time.
Should've been expected, really

Uh oh, I dunno if I like the sound of that.
I want my Platinum action games to be short and bursting to the seams with great set pieces and bosses.
Leave the 25+ hour odysseys to jRPG/strategy genre.

This IS a JRPG. It always was a JRPG. It's a sequel to a JRPG.
I like some Platinum games too but if this is going to be a common refrain from people who've never played any of Yoko Taro's games I'm going to be quite annoyed.

Can't blame them. The most RPG elements they've shown so far is a town that they didn't even interact with anyone in.This IS a JRPG. It always was a JRPG. It's a sequel to a JRPG.

Why was this site banned?
I guess I saw it less as a successor to Nier and more as a successor to Platinum character action games in a Nier skin.

15 hours of P* minigames
woa, this game is gonna deliver
I honestly expected like 6-7h of great gameplay (basically, like every platinum action game)
Oh dear lord. Platinum fans are gonna kill this game, aren't they?
If you want to play a Platinum game, go play one of their flops or something. This is literally an outsourced Square Enix JRPG franchise.

I eagerly look forward to the true ending wherein you must watch the main character rust and decay in real time over the course of a thousand years as she sits and contemplates the realization of whatever plot twist atrocity came before it and lets time eat away at her as the only fitting punishment for her immortal body.
This will all be unskippable.
Doubt it. Platinum game fans no longer expect anything in particular after Korra, TMNT and to a much, much lesser extent Transformers happened.
But you really shouldn't be surprised that people like me might have assumed this was a Platinum character action game first, and a Nier sequel second. After all, Metal Gear Revengance was far more of a Platinum CAG than a Metal Gear game. It wasn't 20+ hours. It wasn't a stealth game. It didn't have much in the way of back and forth tasks like a traditional MGS. It was a very linear affair like a Bayonetta with an MGS skin.
I am surprised this seems to have so much Nier in it, and I'm a fan of Nier and have followed this game since release. I guess I didn't read enough fan translations of Yoko Taro interviews to know better...
Because Dark Souls speed-runs are also indicative of the game length for a normal gamer?I'd be dubious about any claims of length, especially for a platinum game.
We will see 6 hour playthroughs within a week.
That's way too long for a Platinum action game.
Anyone being down on Platinum for Transformers is loco. The relatively low budget is apparent, but the combat is stellar, even incorporating the Transformers vehicle modes pretty well into the mix, and it channels the G1 Transformers spirit something fierce.
It's just damage control before the inevitable backlash, from people expecting Bayonetta 3.The irony of a Nier fan calling out Platinum flops.
We're all in the same boat breh. There's a reason so many people impressed by the gifs of this game have no idea wtf the first one was.
It depends how shit the sidequests are.

They can't be worse than in original Nier. Or can they? :-/
Please please PLEASE don't be because of material/ weapon grinding.
It better not be 20 hours of BS fishing quests and item harvesting
Nier took me 12 hours. So this one will take 20 I guess. It depends how shit the sidequests are.
