That looks awesome. Original creator doing the story, original composer doing the music, Platinum Games doing everything else. Nice to have a PS4 exclusive from Platinum. PS4's lineup is crazy stacked.
This has already leap frogged Scalebound. This is what I expected scalebound to be, not topic wise, but fast hectic gameplay whereas scalebound is jarringly slow for a P* game.
Definitely glad PS4 got this game instead of the slow one. Now P* please consider Zone of The Enders 3.

Oh no it has actual gameplay. Weeaboos am cry confirmed. Now interest in this game will drop to 0.
But really Platinum games Games are basically a rehash of their former games in a new skin. I can instantly tell that it's by platinum. They all have similar style and animation too.
I'll admit I don't know shit about Nier, but if the game ends up being half as good as the trailer then I'll be throwing some dollars its way at release. Now that was awesome.
I hope they are actually making an RPG not a standard hack and slash game. Bit too early to tell from the trailers so far but they need to show something other than hectic hack and slash combat personally I am hoping for Nier 2 not Bayonetta 3. Nothing against Bayonetta but I would rather they did the next one off their own backs, a lot of people are looking forward to another Nier game.
This game looks fucking AMAZING. The day this comes out is the day I own a Ps4.
Damn, it's got the Nier vibe going on but it looks so much better graphically and fluidity wise. It will retain the rpg elements i'm sure
Surprised by how good it looks, it's got really good alpha and particle effects and nice detail. Impressive that it's 60fps although knowing Platinum it won't be locked, but still. It's the most detailed 60fps game on Ps4 that i've seen.

The creative dude behind Nier is still on this, same with the composer. He just doesn't have his own team internally at Square, so they always outsource his ideas with collabs with really iffy devs. Why they actually made a wise move this time is sort of beyond me, because I imagine none of his games actually sold enough to warrant this, could just be Platinum's mercenary dev style just gets em enough jobs. Either way I wouldn't be worried about the game being full on Platinum beat-em up. From my understanding, that trailer is indicative of how the original played from a core combat standpoint, just way more fluid. But all the crazier shit Nier had to keep itself varied is still there, don't really have a grasp on how Nier handled its stat based stuff though. There was a solid famtisu translation of all the stuff about this game on gaf, but that shit is buried like 5 pages in.
