Tip 14: Press L3 to toggle your pod's flashlight. Do this repeatedly at an enemy to taunt them. Their face will glow red and you'll see/hear steam come form their heads. Use this to make the focus on you. Combine with taunt chips for major dmg.
Tip 11: Get a spear. They are incredible in this game, especially the spear dodge, counterattack. I thought launching enemies into a mid-air juggle with a small sword was the way to go until I started acquiring spears. An Overclock chip with a spear unleashes tidal waves of punishment.
It has been mentioned already and the game itself mentions it, too. The game does not end after "beating" it once. In fact, the game only really STARTS after beating the game twice (each time from a different perspective). It's like the developer saying "Here, this is the core story (Circle 1 & 2) and this is what is really going on (everything after it.) So yea. Enjoy the story.
Thanks for this video! I blasted through the intro and then ended up without an objective and confused. But you've given me hope to continue. I hope I can get the hang of this game.
Just started playing and I decided to sell anything I thought I didn't need at the time, I had 2 OS chips so I sold one and... game over, system crashed and I was booted back to the title screen. The game completely ended with a terrible rating also 😆😂
OHHH so there's a perfect dodge system like the parry in Sekiro! Now it all makes sense! I always wondered why I got hit by pretty much everything in game
its srsy too hard for me to dodge when these spinning things come in the beginning where there is nothing more than me and these 2 spinning shits i just dont know how to dodge i literally died after it used all recoverys
Yasuo Bankai 風 yeah. and the fact the prologue doesn't auto save. died twice so i used easy mode and auto chip to grind through the first part to find out there's even crazier stuff. that's like almost impossible even on normal.
😮 i died 8 times during my full 17 chapters run, including DLC and now I'm level 75 now. Note: buy as much recovery as possible and upgrade your weapons at least to level 3
I just finally got into this game yesterday and had the same frustration with the prologue, couple hours wasted. Once getting passed that, oh boy I'm having fun, and it doesnt take long to unlock and discover ample save opportunities
@@Mike-ix5sv glad I found this comment. I’ve been looking forward to playing this for ages only to find I died twice at the two spinning cog thingies and had to redo the prologue. So disheartening. I’ve literally never played a game where I’ve had to heal myself mid battle. Also, I tried to hone my dodge skills (when the robots eyes turn red) and I’m getting mixed results, sometimes it kinda looks like it works and other times it clearly doesn’t and I get whooped. Frustrated as F***. 2 hours gone but I’ll try again tomorrow on easy.
@@ScruffyDiamond honestly that's what I did, that first boss battle has a steep learning curve, dodging and attacking along with learning to utilize the pod. I go easy setting with auto chips equipped for the prologue, after first boss switch to a more challenging difficulty. I found the standard difficulty relatively easy after the prologue, just upgrade chip capacity early and often, upgrade chips and weapons and enjoy. Listen to the suggestion at the end of the game and play through it multiple times.
I've been playing this on hard/very hard... I never felt easy or normal mode... I just beat the first boss and discovered everything u said... in about 5 seconds after the first cinematic boss. Wish me luck though! This is all brand new to me... I shall erase my memory to play it again if that's good...
That difficulty curve is so weird I never died once before the final boss but then I ran out of healing items and suddenly I'm stuck dying over and over again. By the way for the next playthrough you will have no healing items as well so good luck discovering the entire plot. Yeah like you said you can turn down the difficulty but I think is not quite good implemented.
you can just exit the game and it will boot in the last place you saved. I also stuck in a place like yours, fighting Eve was a pain since he only plays long range, I got careless and my healing went to 0 and got stuck. So yeah, just exit the game.
lol games cool and everything but making me restart the whole thing cos I died one time to the first main boss? That’s just obnoxious game design, I’m not sure what made the developers think their game was worth the time to restart cos of a single death but for me it really isn’t.
@@mclovinjr9086 lower the difficulty bro till you get the hang of it, and once you pass the first boss you will have save points and won’t half to restart over. I started yesterday got frustrated but kept going and I’m having a lot of fun.
@@ZBjs-oi5hz yeh fair enough, I'm definitely gonna give it another go. Game seems great I've watched a load of reviews on it, none of them mentioned the intro restarting so it took me off guard.
@@ZBjs-oi5hz I finish souls games without breaking a sweat but niers beginning is absolutely terrible & u cant deny it. I see what the devs tried to do but The fact that u barley can skip cutscenes defeats it completely.

tip 12 -playing without skirt by self destructing
...seriously?

@@someoneprice2371 restart the game. if you want as a choice in the game I think there a quest you need to do
what's tip 11...?
Supposedly there's a special item to get it back

@@dtdw1988
The lack of saving is not only obnoxious by itself, it also means that you play super cautiously and it ruins the cutscenes.
Bruhh im so bad im stuck in prologue. Failed twice already
😮 i died 8 times during my full 17 chapters run, including DLC and now I'm level 75 now.

Put the game on Easy for the intro. You can do it

Wish the game told me how to heal rather than auto recovery
I died before I realized I could go back and get the auto-heal chip. Guess I'm SOL.

Prologue
Boss trouble, go to Easy when you reach the boss, then back to whatever level you want after. No Save during the Prologue was VERY annoying.
What's the name of this ost track??
Song of the ancients
Theese are no tips, you just explained basic movement, that is already explained in the first 10 minutes of the game...
guyz.. can u tell me how to dodge on pc?? please..

Dislike due to the abrupt tip #1 after the unfunny bit, didn't continue
Tip #11: save your time and don't buy this game. Save point design is trash
I believe the game is actually good. But you got a point. The save design is utter fucking trash. If you die you literally have to start all over.
Bruh
tip 15: Bump into invisible walls!
tip 16: Rewatch certain events on youtube so you can actually read what they said amidst that battle sequence
protip: Do not play this garbage!
