This is looking better than I thought! It's funny they just embraced the sword floating on the back "video game" thing.

I'm so glad they kept that bullet hell stuff in there, and seemingly fleshed it out some more.

I had a hunch this wasn't coming out this year. Damn, I hope early 2017 is January 1st or late March. I don't want to have to divvy up time between this and Persona 5.

THIS LOOKS SO GOOD. No wonder their last couple of games didn't.

@teddie: Totally agree, the bullet-hell-in-an-action-game thing seems very iconic to Nier, and it would be a shame to lose it.

I'm confident Platinum will make this game better balanced than the first, and an overall more enjoyable experience.
