Long story short, though: The PC version of Nier: Automata is (assuming you use the unofficial fix-pack) still the best version of a great game. Oh, and just how absurdly intricate the character design is - the stitching on 2B's dress is to die for.

Maybe even cheer a little at the absurdity of the androids being able to project a hard-light chair for support while they're fishing. We could be talking about just how perfect it is that you can pet your little gun-pod for a good day's machine-slaying. We could be talking instead about the convoluted multi-series chronology that acts as spice to the game without overwhelming its self-contained flavour. It's a pity that talk of the GOTY edition is going to be undermined by the lack of any official updates. If you didn't own it previously, the price on the single piece of DLC has been cut, and includes the GOTY perks - some skins for your pod drone, and a machine mask to hide your tears. Folks were hoping that today's release of the GOTY (Game Of The YoRHa) edition of the game would fix that, and include a patch from developers Platinum. Nier: Automata was one of the best games of 2017, and one I recommend wholeheartedly, just so long as anyone playing the PC version grabs the unofficial FAR patch by "Kaldaien".
