Went to the NieR Orchestra concert at Mitsubishi Electric Halle in Düsseldorf today. The music was amazing, but the seating was absolutely terrible.
A huge speaker blocked most of the screen and stage. Since the concert includes story text and Japanese dialogue on screen, we basically missed a huge part of the experience.
And the worst part? These weren’t even cheapest seats.
Honestly, I couldn’t enjoy the event at all because of this. Instead of getting immersed in the music and atmosphere, I was constantly reminded of how much I was missing.
It’s incredibly disappointing to pay a decent amount for a ticket and end up with such a restricted view.
Amazing music, but the overall experience was completely ruined for me.

Update:
I contacted EVENTIM about the severely obstructed view and received a response from their customer support.

According to EVENTIM, the event organizer is solely responsible for the seating arrangements, seating plans, ticket price categories, and stage positioning. They also stated that they are not informed in advance about potential view obstructions.

They advised me to contact Overlook Events SAS directly, as they are the organizer responsible for the concert.
As a small gesture of goodwill, EVENTIM offered me a €5 voucher for my next purchase, valid for one year.

While I appreciate the gesture, it feels rather disappointing considering how much the obstructed view affected the experience, especially since we couldn’t properly follow important parts of the story.

I’ve now contacted Overlook Events directly and requested a partial refund, as there was no warning about the restricted view when purchasing the tickets.

I’m currently waiting for their response and will update this post once I hear back.
Hopefully, this can be resolved fairly, especially if other attendees experienced similar issues.

Me and my friend brought Grimoire Weiss to the Düsseldorf NieR concert. Surprisingly his ticket was free...

90 euros for this crap. The whole concert was built around what was happening on the screen... Some scenes lasted several minutes, and there was a conversation in Japanese during them. The whole story was just text. Which means you couldn't make out a single thing. The people working there didn't care. Or rather, they said they might open the curtains wider, but that didn't happen. It was Price Category 2. Holy shit, I'm so damn pissed.

So I recently bought the Drakengard 10th anniversary collection, and it has a blu-ray disc of the “History Films”. I tested and it works on PS5! Dang, I wish they would just remaster the 3 games and put it on PS5!

Also funny how Furiae is called Fries in the JP ver.

Can’t find anything Emil related that doesn’t require me to sell my kidneys, maybe one day the Nendoroid will get a Re-release.

The storytelling, voice acting, nicole and emi, the orchestra

Y'all had me almost crying like at least 10 times 😭😭😭

I'm back at my place and feel empty

Why does bro look like that?

did anyone else had a feeling someone forgot to take off their mic and sometimes coughed a little bit? or am I crazy😭
there was coughing here and there from the crowd but sometimes it sounded like it came straight out of the mic/speaker?
I just want to know if I'm crazy or not haha, my partner had this feeling as well

Hey guys I started playing Nier Automata this week, I really liked this game the open world exploration, the ambience, the music and the worldbuilding. I have played for a total of 30 hours till now and this is in the span of 6 days.

Well when I played till ending A it felt like the story was missing context or build up to the plot points like it just started and happening but we never got much explanation, this problem is solved by the ending B route. My favourite background explanation is for the songstress, Damn never have I expected this unique looking boss had such a history.

When the lines repeated "Why won't he look at me" I felt the pain and in the end she said "MEANINGLESS" "Someone please look at me!" Even though there was no voice I can somehow hear her desperate cry. It's just truly heartbreaking when you struggled everyday for someone and in the end that person won't even acknowledge you, I can't even imagine!

There are many more lore drops and stuffs which I understood few and others I didn't understand but well there are still 3 more endings so I will wait till then and after that watch a video essay of the story.

I still feel like The main quest the ending A and B one story felt like it lacked a bit of buildup, I mean everything is just happening and then the giant Goliath appeared in flooded city suddenly adam kidnaps 9S and we killed him and then after that showdown with eve. I know they gave some context with ending B route about them but it felt like they were just killed so quickly. Am I the only one who feels like this?

Tbh I am pretty tired now after continuos Playthrough and don't really feeling like progressing anymore for few days. I regret one thing for progressing this fast in a span of few days. Even though I didn't rush through the game and completed almost 75% of the quests. I should have taken my time and created memories of so many good and emotional side quests. Anyways guys that was it for the review. I am gonna progress again soon with a fresh mind!

Hype for the concert tomorrow!

Was at the Düsseldorf Concert and when that Song came with Emi and Nicole and the "fire" part came on I got the hardest goosebumps ever. Just incredible music both from singers and Instruments.

I'm doing my first playthrough and am realizing that there are a lot of things I'm missing or can't complete because of previous unfinished quests. I didn't know how the game was structured and that I wouldn't be able to go back and complete quests after certain main storyline acts :( I'm nearing ending C but I can't even upgrade my pods because I didn't get the part S items. I love the game and am super invested in the plot but I'm worried I'll be missing more than I would like to. The gathering keepsakes quest is what prompted this because I didn't know how to complete it but it seems I won't be able to based on other posts :(

Has anyone bought it? How did it fit? I wear an Italian S and Asian sizes are so confusing

So I had opened Replicant for the first time in like six months, loading a save I was a couple of hours into, in Facade before the timeskip, and got this weird text sequence. It began with saying I was in a strange dream with a whispering voice of which I got the option to either refuse or hear out, and I chose to hear out, which then resulted in me being asked a bunch of questions. I can’t seem to upload a video so here’s the questions in order with the answers I chose, and the other option I didn’t choose in parenthesis:

“Do you believe in the existence of the self?” My self exists within me. (No such thing exists. The very idea is meaningless.)
“Do you believe your existence has meaning?” My existence has meaning so long as I have free will. (No. The world will continue whether I exist or not.)
“Do you believe in the existence of the self?” No such things exists. The very idea is meaningless. (My self exists within me.)
“Do you believe this world has meaning?” My life gives this world meaning. (God gives this world meaning.)
“Do you believe your existence has meaning?” My existence has meaning so long as I have my own will. (No. The world will continue whether I exist or not.)
“Thanks for staying with me this long. I think my loneliness has been repaired. I guess this is goodbye, then.” Say goodbye. (Don’t say goodbye.)

Then my save loaded and I was right back in Facade. I don’t remember encountering this text sequence in my first play-through, in which I got all endings through E, but I genuinely might just be forgetting. Let me know if you’ve ever seen this sequence because it was pretty neat and I tried looking it up but wasn’t finding anything. Apologies if this is a redundant post.

Clearly its a text about our heros.

Yes

Thats an IPhone 5C

Be amazed.
