This review contains spoilers

Before anything, I will fully admit that I am someone with a pretty loose understanding of philosophical topics like the ones handled within the story of Nier Automata
I can understand it easy when reading up on specific theories or authors, but it's hard for me to fully process it when playing a game such as this one.
As such, there's factors within this narrative that I wasn't exactly qualified to understand fully, so I can never take a truly deep dive into what makes this story so amazing.

But that did not affect my enjoyment of this genuinely incredible game. The combat is highly challenging, but extremely fun. The hacking minigames are pretty alright. THe characters are really cool (except 9S I despise 9S the best ending is the one where he dies and I get to laugh at him). The music is phenomenal. Even if you don't feel like playing this game, I highly recommend Weight of the World, it's fantastic. It's an experience I don't think I'll even fully forget. Kudos to everyone who helped make this incredible work of art a reality.
