If you're into the genre, then yes absolutely worth it.

Note that you basically have to play the game twice from start to finish to actually finish the game... and has some quirks which make it really interesting game

I am actually new to modern pc gaming.

Only bought 1 pc game in the recent two years if my memory serves me right.

Not sure about the genre of nier automata but the trailer and sound track looks great.

 

the graphics is also way superior compares to

the retro games like doom 1 i used to play.

not sure if my pc can run it though

might be really cpu/gpu demanding

thanks

 

i can just try and run it after finish downloading the game.

The gpu is just above minimum requirement but i am not sure about the cpu.

maybe the graphics card can take some load off cpu

we will see

?

I have tried the demo on my old tablet and it feels like a power point slide show if you know what i meant.

hope the new graphics card can make a difference.

Yeah Nier automata is a great game. i sank like 60 hours into that game on the ps4. id say its really worth it :D

as long as your pc has the specs to run it . it should be fine.... but i heard from other people that its not very optimized on pc.

There is no such thing as a bad PC, there are only BETTER PCs

Do you mind explaining what you meant by not very optimized on pc?

Now i am a bit concerned.

I don't even know how to overclock my graphics card yet.

It's definitely worth it in my opinion, it's difficult to decide between Witcher 3 and Nier Automata as my all time favorite
 


What's your PC specs though? the game is badly optimized on PC

But it says gp102 according to gpuz

GP102 is the Chip Model Number, but there's multiple GPU's with the same chip

But anyway yeah that's way more than enough to run Nier Automata, or any game for that matter
