For those who have played this and enjoyed it

I know that Nier sacrifices himself but this game is only 15 bucks right now and I am really interested in the cult following it has garnered. Does knowing that tidbit of info ruin the experience?

Personally, I think there is a lot more to this game then just that. I bought it for 25$ and it was well worth it. I would defiantly recommend it for 15$.

not really. There are more things to experience then just that one (probably predictable) piece of info.

No. Play the game. And then play it again.

Don't worry OP, the game has multiple endings and what's mentioned only occurs in one of them. Hope you enjoy it.

Neir is one of those games that is so exotic that it demands to be played even if you know all of the endings.

You also have to experience the fishing and farming. That is worth $15 alone.

Practically half the cast heroically sacrifice themselves:P during every boss battle anyway, so that info is just slightly more spoilery than knowing that Nier hits things with his sword.

To borrow a entirely cliched phrase.... Its not the destination its the journey that matters.

Yeah it has multiple endings and lots of things going on, knowing that one bit of info that is only going to happen in one ending is not a concern. Buy the game.

Get it! One of my favs of all tome (see avatar)

@dpedal1: Doesn't matter, that's not the key element. Play it, and play all endings (there are four, although the last one isn't mandatory), you will love the experience.
