Somehow, amazingly, I feel like this needs to be clarified. The creator decided to put in a secret ending to his previous series where the protagonist, who rides a dragon, somehow slips into an alternate reality where you inexplicably suddenly play a rhythm game against an eldritch monstrosity and then get shot out of the sky by a literal fighter jet. And that universe is where Nier takes place.
Yoko Taro is an insane man and I love it. I still won’t play Drakengard, but that’s just because it’s not a great game.
I don’t want to ruin your excitement, but a lot of those endings are a one-off thing (i.e. make this one particular choice, get an ending and load back from latest save) or even an unique path.
And, in my opinion, the first Nier game has more of “just play the game again lol”
Yeah in reality it’s like 2 playthroughs of part 1 then like 2 of part 2 then idk how many of part 3. But you basically switch between the core characters for each playthrough then once you’ve done both you go to the next main story bit.
I had never heard of this game before your comment and i went to look it up on wikipedia. 26 endings? And not a roguelike? I’m in.
People making 6+ hours lore recap videos on Nier and the previous series that the creator somehow decided happens in the same universe.
Have fun!

I’m planning on playing Drakengard 3, wish me luck.
I salute you, brave gamer.

Try to go in as blind as possible, the game is even better that way. 100/10, and incredible experience.
