I know you’re not a big fan of this kind of praise, but it really was a game that has become feverishly popular within its cult audience. It was also really great to find out that a lot of the development team at PlatinumGames were huge fans of the first game so we could trust in them to protect that which is the essence of NIER, whilst adding in all of the elements that make PlatinumGames so great.ĭD: We actually rated NieR as the most important game of all time. Their expertise in this field are unprecedented and they seemed like the perfect fit. We knew that if we wanted to make another NIER it would have to be a success and we would have to build on what was considered the weaknesses of the first game to do this.įor many, some elements of the gameplay were a sticking point and that is where PlatinumGames came in.
Yoko Taro (YT): The first NIER was not really considered to be a commercial success so people really didn’t expect us to revisit the series. Digitally Downloaded (DD): I must admit we never expected that we’d get another NieR game! Was it always your intention to produce NieR: Automata, and were you worried that it wouldn’t happen after Cavia shut down?
