Nier: Automata
(Square Enix)From the melancholy minds at Square Enix comes one of the most dearly depressing titles that the company has ever put out. Set tens of thousands of years in our planet’s future, Nier: Automata follows a proxy war fought between androids loyal to humanity and alien-made robots. You play as 2B, an impeccably dressed warrior who carries out missions to assure human victory, which feels further and further away as time drips by. As you stack up robot bodies, you begin to questions just how unfeeling the automatons you’re killing actually are. The more you murder, the more “human” your foes seem to be getting. What gives you the right to serve as judge, jury and executioner for synthetic beings that aren’t so different from you? Existential questions abound in Nier Automata, and there are no easy answers – just the difficult feelings that come with asking.
