re: NieR Replicant - anyone tryout the new release?

I'm playing it, but I was already a huge fan of the original on PS3. It has some similarities to Automata, but it's not as much of an action game. Grimoire Weiss replaces the pods, but it has a bit more of a focus than the pods were.

I do think that the music is even better in the first game. I think you'll enjoy it if you liked Automata that much.
