For anybody who wants her translated dialogue: Phase 1: All of this....is for him! Phase 2: How could I...end up with such a hideous body. And yet...this world...This world is so full of beauty.
@@burdenedsappo Yeah, the Nier/Drakengard series has a lot of side content often only found in books or stage plays. This was initially one of them. Similarly, the truth of the 13 Grimoires (only 3 by the game), what Rebrum the red book was to Weiss before he lost his memory due to Nier, the Legion led by the Red Eye (only minorly brought up in the game mostly through loading screens) and even brother Nier being forced into prostitution a year before the game being largely why he's averse to flirting, why he ties his hair, and why he can easily kill or attack a human as easily as a shade are other such examples. Funny enough, the entire Drakengard 3 game, which is technically the first game in the series timeline wise, is not canon since none of its endings lead to Drakengard 1, except the novelized version of the game. This I assume being largely because even during development of 3 Taro didnt think it was turning out well, but I guess was too far in to just start over (I also think he wasn't initially in charge of 3, so though he was brought in pretty early on there was likely already a scenario already mocked up).
@@OsnosisBones 3 is cannon and no he wasnt in charge but he still played a part, drakenguard 2 is the one not considered cannon, taro didnt have a say or play a part in its development at all, some peices of its story is cannon such as ones bother and how he had a two children. But the rest is a no go. 3 is a prequel to one and one is the prequel to nier. I just dont know how it got to automata I dont think anyone does.
Gets punched so hard it decapitated her, then gets sliced into 3 large pieces all the way through, but dies to a dark lance to the head, that was decapitated entirely. I honestly think she gave up on life after the postman said what he said.
Yeah I think that’s what happened too. She wanted to find a way to become a “human” so she could stay with the postman, which is why she started eating the Replicants. When the postman rejected her, she lost her will go live and succumbed to the injuries.
Yeah, her final moments werent even in physical pain but more as acceptance of the world she lived in and the circumstances she was put through. She very likely just halted her regenerative ability and let the sun slowly burn her away seeing that she had no reason to live anymore after the postman didnt accept who Louise truly was.
Even though this is a sad fight, this is probably one of the few instances where fighting it was actually the morally right thing Nier had to do as this shade was killing and eating the townsfolk in a attempt to be human.
@@deathbykonami5487 the whole point of nier is that theres no right thing to do, both sides have valid reasons to do what they do, their inability to communicate is what caused their downfall. have you even played the game??
@@i.147 Yes I played the first game, and by that logic, Nier and the others were protecting their lives from a project that would've killed them just to give a bunch of people who've been dead for a thousand years another chance to live. And don't say that they're all the same people because they're not, since the Replicants lived different lives from the Gestalts. Why should the Replicants have to allow themselves to die just so the Gestalts can get fresh new bodies.
@@deathbykonami5487 theyre not protecting themselves, by killing the shadowlord theyre dooming every single replicant, including themselves, to die of the black scrawl. replicants also cant reproduce so killing gestalts means that humanity will never be restored. of course they didnt know that, because of the rift between replicants and gestalts. the thing is that replicants were never supposed to be sentient and gestalts were never supposed to relapse. again, saying whos right is purposefully an impossible task : gestalts arent dead, theyre living human souls and replicants are their own copied body that they were promised to save humanity, but replicants are now people too, with different lives and emotions. peaceful coexistence cant happen, but destroying one is condemning the other to a death sentence. thats why theres no right choice here. a happy ending was impossible from the start.
@@i.147 According to the wiki "However, according to project files found by the player in NieR Gestalt and NieR: RepliCant , an unforeseen error occurred during the separation process for the rest of humanity. It is postulated by Devola and Popola that researchers failed to account for the Original Gestalt's own genetic instability, meaning other Gestalts made following the Original Gestalt's data were also corrupted. Adding to that oversight was the Replicants' unexpected self-awareness, which caused them to reject their Gestalts. This effect is known as a relapse, which causes Gestalts to lose their sapience and become hostile, and causes the Black Scrawl on their Replicants." So, the project was doomed to failure, and Popola and Devola, who were programmed to resume the project after a set time, were the reason for humanity's extinction since the Replicants developed self awareness (since they were still human beings created from human DNA, not machines) their bodies would never accept the corrupted gestalts, and it's that rejection that causes the Black Scrawl. So in the end, it's not Nier's fault at all for humanity's extinction, it's the damn scientists who went ahead with a flawed project that was doomed to failure
louise and simone (opera boss from nier automata) are quite similar. louise wanted to become a human by consuming other humans to be with the postman. simone wanted to be beautiful by consuming androids and other machine lifeforms to be with the person she loves (jean paul). but both meet their ends. this is just so sad.
I had a similar hunch to this except with Louise and Grun instead, being misunderstood colossal beasts which play the role of a side story in both Replicant and Automata respectively. Even the way both bosses get defeated are similar, both being taken down after a powerful projectile was launched into the weak point of both Louise and Grun.
Simone is definitely sadder because Jean Paul never gave a two shits about her. At least the postman cared for Louis. If not for the fact that she ate humans, they would have been a cute family.
I think the OST does an amazing job portraying the emotions behind this battle. You hear the battle version with the instrumentals that represent the intensity of the battle since you are fighting to defend Seafront from this massive shade. On the other hand, the vocals are soft and sound melancholic, representing Louise’s loneliness and desire to become a “human” to stay with the postman. When the 2nd, softer version plays after the postman rejects her, it highlights the vocals and, respectively, Louise’s despair that the one person she wants doesn’t reciprocate her feelings. She realizes that it’s impossible for her to become a “human” no matter what she does and that she’ll be forever stuck as a monster to the “humans.” She loses the will to fight and accepts death.
Yeah she gets decapitated, throws her body parts as harpoons, get sliced in half but dies to a dark spear on her head? Massive na, i think when the postman said she's a monster and he'll never love her she lost the will to live and just gave up
@@ardaoguzhan8181 she for sure let herself die there. It's possible she was simply too distracted but I believe she gave the postman what he wanted, for her to not kill the other humans
After ending A (the first ending) there's new cutscenes and the shade's speech actually gets translated, so you can understand what she's saying clearly
I honestly feel so much sympathy and pity for the shades(not all of em mind you). Knowing who they are and what's happened, it's just awful that they suffered in the dark for so many years that drove so many of them insane/unstable.
First words coming out of the boss when we first meet her: “No, wait!” *goes to rescue postman* Oh boy, it’s going to be one of “those” fights, huh, Yoko Taro? Time to take out the tissues again...
It was planned. They had the FF14 Twitter congratulate the NieR Twitter the day it came out. Also even though she's a Kraken she looks like a Malboro / Morbol from Final Fantasy a little.
@@villaniousmustache4898bruh... It's supposed to be tragic a song... Of course it's not an epic boss theme... Also you know that you just disrespected one of the most beloved Nier themes of all time, right?
Yeah, a lot of people can miss this scene because they can actually advance that phase of the battle beafore she even attacks which is a good detail, in my first playthrought she managed to do defeat me 2 times and the final one I managed to defeat her (note: I was playing on hard and most of the time didn’t use the auto lock so yeah)
@@ruphite9521 It was unclear if she still has uterus or not,but I personally would think it's highly unlikely that she has. I'm not even sure myself if she does have one,that would mean....bleed trough her dingdong
It took me three ending playthroughs of this boss until I realized you can actually dps that super attack at the end and bypass the entire part with the postman hitting her. I swear I did the second time but I must have missed it by literally a split second, but my third try i guess my dps just made it happen. It actually changes the cutscenes later for the better in my opinion.
i think it may just always happen on the third play through. (When you’re going for ending C) From what i’ve heard, almost everyone failed the first two and got it on the third try. I don’t think i’ve heard of a situation where someone broke the super attack on their first or second run of it. :o
@@starrymuseI had a feeling this may be the case because i really dont think i missed it on my second try. I guess it was their way of justifying us doing it 3 times lol? I guess in a way that makes each encounter slightly different
It’s crazy that this boss fight was cut from the original. I never finished gestalt so I was trying to find this ost thinking it was on the older albums. Either way, this entire part of the story was so surprisingly eerie and unsettling. Definitely caught me off guard, but I loved every moment of it. Kinda gave me re7 Eveline vibes!
*Meanwhile in an alternative timeline* Weiss: Aim for the head! Nier (The Player): No... I don't think I will. Weiss: Understandable lets go have a good day. *Party just leaves*
13:51 That's where I tear up every single time. Something as simple as the sad music and understanding her connection to the postman does more for me emotionally than the rest of the game.
@@MrKnaives during the C route I’m 100% sure Louise’s voice becomes clearer. Not sure about the other Gestalts though, I played the game in Japanese and only managed to recognize real human words during this boss fight
Am I the only who felt like this was the real final boss? I mean, the battle theme, the huge shade, the story behind this fight, it almost felt like it was the fusion of all shades trying to stop Nier and co. before he destroys what's left of humanity...
@@RPGNoZero yeah if the shadowlord turned agiest them and the plan they where going to use her to fight the shadowlord. they also had more plans then just project Noir which was what shadowlord was pushing. the Aerie village possesion was about before Nier and crew fucked it up also possible that Louise was another from how she was developing. project snow white may have got added if they knew about it as well
The stage? Yeah, I didn't think about it at the time but it does remind me of the Galleon Minerva. But I also think that's just because most ships like that are a similar design haha.
This is the first time I’ve seen female periods mentioned in a story like this. Makes me think of how would women deal with periods in other scenarios like a zombie apocalypse, a vampire apocalypse, all kinds of worst case scenarios? It’d be an interesting thing to explore and learn about, about the female experience.
@@Freshone48 weird, in the first playthrough you're forced to get hit by the attack. a cutscene follows shortly after getting blasted. though it is possible to defeat her before she attacks you.
I respect that they were able to adapt a Grimoire Nier story into the game but this whole chapter honestly feels like padding and isn't as emotionally resonant as anything that was already in the game for me. Doesn't make me cry like the robot and the wolf do. I will say if they ever add father Nier to the remake, it might be interesting to rewrite some of this chapter to have him relate with the postman as a man who wants to care for a daughter.
This chapter is my favourite additional to the game - I feel like it would fit better outside of the main story, but the ABC story arc wouldn't work if it weren't a main quest
@@lBorosDavidl Oh my god no, Kaine was born like that. She was literally bullied and hated for it well before Tyrann possessed her. Why does this comment have 3 likes?!
@@ElectricBarrier Yeah, this is correct. Kaine was born intersex long before Tyrann possessed her. I think her gestalt was actually female, but her replicant somewhere along the line had an error.
She was a Shade attempting to be human/Replicant. The reason why she wanted to be one was because she wanted to be with the postman, who was the only one who had ever treated her with kindness. Unfortunately, she didn’t know about possession, so she thought that eating corpses would make her “human”.

What a twist , the one wants to be human, is actually already human. While the one looks like human, is not human
So does the entire game I think.
I don’t get it I keep dying at the attack 12:35 what am I doing wrong
It's unevitable
@@diobrando2031 I know but for me the screen says "Game over" and I have to do it again. It doesn't go to cut scene
@@Freshone48 weird, in the first playthrough you're forced to get hit by the attack. a cutscene follows shortly after getting blasted. though it is possible to defeat her before she attacks you.
@@Freshone48 Yeah same here I don't know if it's bugged or wtf is going on..
@@morior I had to stop playing cuz it starting to get me mad.
Yup, FFXIV New free trial promotion at 4:50
3:20 is Nier referencing Final Fantasy Main theme here?!
If you listen to the ost here and then look up ff14's ishgard ost you'll notice that they're almost the same
@@iPoopyArrow yea I heard the part from Alex Moukala’s vod :D
Is that a brand new soundtrack?
3:34 Weiss sounds so similar to SB737
Well here I go crying again
PLS ANYONE KNOWS WHATS THE OST AT 14:00 ?
The Fleeting Words - Family
@@lunascomments3024 THANK U SO MUCH
Shadow Lord Vibe
Wooaahh that's so Big.
That’s what she said!
I now feel bad for my future daughter, whom i will be naming Louise
Just don't let her know NieR:Replicant lmao
Is there a way to kill this boss before the red bag kid intervenes? Hmm…
This is taking Morbel to a whole new lv..
Can someone tell me what the ost song in 14.43 clip?
Simone boss fight flashbacks...
that ost in the very end is wayy tooo good i need the full veer
I respect that they were able to adapt a Grimoire Nier story into the game but this whole chapter honestly feels like padding and isn't as emotionally resonant as anything that was already in the game for me. Doesn't make me cry like the robot and the wolf do. I will say if they ever add father Nier to the remake, it might be interesting to rewrite some of this chapter to have him relate with the postman as a man who wants to care for a daughter.
at least girl cute
More content so who cares
@@anomitas More content doesn’t mean good content. It also makes replaying for B, C&D endings take longer than it did in the original
@@youngkappakhan you can rush the game pretty quickly and i enjoyed that part so i like to replay it.
This chapter is my favourite additional to the game - I feel like it would fit better outside of the main story, but the ABC story arc wouldn't work if it weren't a main quest
This part dragged on can see why it was cut originally
I liked this part!!
Kaine is explicit af.. love her(?) more...
Well she identifies as female so....yeah I think we're on the right track.
She IS a woman. It's just that the shade that is inshide her is a guy so she has a shade pp
@@lBorosDavidl Oh my god no, Kaine was born like that. She was literally bullied and hated for it well before Tyrann possessed her. Why does this comment have 3 likes?!
@@ElectricBarrier Yeah, this is correct. Kaine was born intersex long before Tyrann possessed her. I think her gestalt was actually female, but her replicant somewhere along the line had an error.
@@SMNtheNight her gestalt was born female but her Replicant is intersex
Anyone have the link to just the ost of this boss fight? Can’t find it.
Just look for Fleeting Worlds Outsider. Family is the softer version.
guys, louise looks like the red girls
Whats the song at the ending?
What is this song at the end called? Need to know!!
It's called "Fleeting Words / Family"
can someone explain me the story and why she didn't attack the postman?
She was a Shade attempting to be human/Replicant. The reason why she wanted to be one was because she wanted to be with the postman, who was the only one who had ever treated her with kindness. Unfortunately, she didn’t know about possession, so she thought that eating corpses would make her “human”.
@@liansmith4038, yikes. Now I know the inspiration behind Simone Beauvoir from Automata.
Are there any other bosses beside this one that aren't in the main story ? And how do i unlock this one ?
What do you mean "main story"? She's in the main story...
What’s the name of the song during this fight?
Fleeting Words - Outsider
@@Tamamo359 Ty!
claymore vibes
U mean the blonde girls with silver eyes?
@@scout3158 pretty sure they are talking about the boss design
@@unchaton8390 The most "popular" part of claymore show are the girls
I never said she was talking about them
I asked IF THAT was the show she was refering to
@@unchaton8390 If i would say "oh yes the anime with monsters in it" its like dude..... Smh
@@scout3158 to be fair I misinterpreted what you were asking and also the design what with the fiber-like body with face on the appendages is rather similar to a few of the monster design from claymore
The voice actor sound like Gaara from Naruto somehow?
Does it feel familiar?
Its because its the same voice actor
And war from darksiders
You bet it's the same voice actor it's Liam O'Brian!
is this boss doesnt have in nier 2010 game?
Scylla?
... the girl remind me of sakura... From fate...▼・ᴥ・▼
Pain
Random Player: this fight is Intense & has sad backstory
Weeb Player: *Hehehe Tentacle Waifu*

Hi, First comment ❤️✌️.
This boss fight sucks.
Its litteraly the worst boss in the game. Should have left it out or actually made it fun.
Even the fucking Bore Boss wasnt as awful as this piece of trash.
Shows you what happend when you try to force your stupid OCs in an already good story.
The entire bonus episode felt like unimportant filler.
Very disapointed.
no ones uploaded the ost for this fight (or if they did it got nuked by SE) so im constantly coming back to this video just to listen to the music again 🥲
Someone already uploaded the entire soundtrack and it got nuked.
@@youngkappakhan yeah sucks D: SE aint havin it
I believe its called fleeting words- another edit version
Boss theme - Fleeting Words
Theme after boss - Fleeting Words Family
These games are so fucking beautiful i can't stand it.
