Don't see it in the OP so I assume I'm the first to link but I just spent the last 2 hours trying to find this. Was in the GBE Playdate preshow today.

Also found the song that came after by accident,

So I just got to San Fransokyo(sp?) and am really struggling for a reason to keep playing.

Between the awful, stinted voice acting and story that I only half understand (I played 1 and 2 but none of the off-shoots), I find myself skipping every cutscene once I get the gist, just to get to the next walled off arena of button mashing. It's not that I'm against the gameplay or the story as a whole, I guess I'm just bouncing off these first few worlds enough that if it doesn't change, I don't see myself enjoying any more of it.

On a recent Bombcast, Jan and I think Ben mentioned it having a sort of "Nier moment" where it clicked or did a thing that made it good or I don't know. Can anyone speak to that while spoiling as little as possible?

PS. Should I just go play Nier? That's a game I've been remotely interested in and recent comparisons to this game spurred me a bit more.
