• Reviews around combat (3.04 of 5)

    NieR - Playstation 3

    • The combat isn't the best, but it is very flavorful
    • The combat system and graphics leave something to desire as the combat is clunky, and the graphics are dated
    • Pros:+ Amazing soundtrack+ Story/Atmosphere/LoreCons:- Can be repetitive- Shallow combat
    • The sidequests were still horrible (well, the fishing was kind of cool), but the more enjoyable combat made them tolerable
    • The combat was fun, as i slashed away and then had to switch to magic which amounted to massive BLOOD GUSH,,, I was hooked!The game looks good and bad but its fun anyways and that whats its all about
    • Lovebthis game, great plot and characters. as well as combat
    • Fun but repetitive combat meets a need to get 100% of the game's weapons the game to get all the
    • cool story line , blew average graphic , nice combat system !
    • It has one of the most beautiful story and intriguing combat system
    • Pros:+ Amazing soundtrack+ Story/Atmosphere/LoreCons:- Can be repetitive- Shallow combat
    • The combat system, so critical to action RPGs like these, while serviceable, becomes repetitive too soon due to a lack of depth and controls that feel a tad bit archaic in the face of current generation action games.
    • Perhaps more important for the overall enjoyment of the game, the combat got more fun once I was able to upgrade my weapons and my magic spells to satisfying levels.
    • But the combat, while fun for me, is admittedly repetitive.

    • I have to say I had a lot of fun with this one, Cavia has pretty much taken the endearing B-tier JRPG to an artform
    • The main character is a little bit shallow (as in not well developed...not as in frat boy shallow) but that is largely due to the story
