NieR: Automata
It's a game that surprised me at least a couple of times. Here's why:
1) The story - the game takes place on the planet Earth but in a distant future, where the planet has been ruled by inteligent machines. The plot is full of twists and turns that change the perspective of the game a couple of times during the gamplay. And even though everything seems twisted it is at the same time very logical and well thought-through. If you like stories about androids, then it's a story for you.
2) The end is actually a beginning... The game has 26 different endings. As far as I know, some of them are more of a joke, but still, there a a couple of long and good ones. Moreover, to unlock some endings, you have to finish the game a couple of times. Three is the minimum! Fortunately, every ending differs a lot from the others, so it's not boring and repeated.
3) The robots - they are grotesque and they are not only killing machines, they actually have a need to undestand people and try to copy their behaviours. Watching them trying to come up with religion and stuff is pretty interesting.
4) Gamplay - NieR: Automata is an open-world RPG. There are a lot of main and side quests, a huge number of artifacts to collect, nice character-development system. But it's not that idle. It's a game with a lot of action. But you need to try it to see it. You cannot be bored with it, even after 15-20 hours of playing.
5) The construction of world you play in - it's big, it's open and you get back to the same places a couple of times to find something you didn't see before. You can easily feel like you're becoming the part of this world. At some point you start recognizing some places and feel more like home.
6) Graphics - to be hones, from the tech point of view the game looks average. Everything looks kind of old if you compare it to other games released this year. It seems like it's a game from 10 years ago. But on the other hand, it suits the character of this game.
7) Soundtrack - it is amazing, enough said.
All in all, it's not a perfect game but it's still in my opinion one of the best releases this year. It's really engaging, never boring, constantly changing. It is one of a kind and you should definitely try it.
I would give it 9,5/10 overall.
