Things to ask you guys before buying
1. Is this a game that can upgrade ur character/armor/weapon? I think it is satisfying to do so.
2. Did it got a discount in summer sale? I kinda want to pick it up on the next sale(I think Christmas)
3. Does it contain jumpscares(I think not, but to be sure. I have a weak heart)
4. Extra points to convince me to buy it(just for me to convince myself)

2. Yes, there was a summer sale, don't remember how much, though.

3. No jumpscares.

4. For me, this game is the Citizen Kane of video games. It showcases just how much the properties that are specific to the medium can be used to build a powerful and thought-provoking experience. It's not perfect, far from it, but the sheer amount of details and thoughts about every single thing is just mind-blowing. From level-design to character-design, from music usage to gameplay variations, from themes to structure, there are a TON of well-realized ideas that are here to serve the narration rather than distract from it. Yes, as a game, it's not the best (even if I found it rather enjoyable). But as an art piece, it's spectacular.

1. Yes, you can.
2. Not sure about summer sale, but it got a discount on black friday sale.
3. I haven't that far into the game, so I don't know. Yet.
4. If you use a self-distruct option 2B don't die, but loses her skirt.

I like that last part, KRON :D
Now I have to say, some people has game performance issues, mostly concerning the graphics and controls. This is because the game was originally ported for consoles and controlled with controllers. I personally have no issues with this at all! PC mouse and keyboard works fine with me.
I also have to say I've been playing this game for three weeks, and I find the combat really fun, and the story to be very interesting and "heartfelt", in more than one way.
There are alot of different character, weapon and ability upgrades that can change playstyles!
Definitely recommend this game, especially if it's on sale! :steamhappy:

Make sure that your PC meets at least the minimum requirements. This game is demanding for GPU's performance.

DLC is optional, but it is worth paying for. Wish they added more outfits and cosmetic items.

But I do not have DLC!!! It is in base game! ;) As I wrote I just made some side quest for robots...

And DLC is for a grind people a bit as you buy it but to wear you have to have some high lvl and do some quests...

sale starts this thursday

It’s so good that I replayed the game another 3 times after finishing it once.

They put a lot of effort into perfecting the animations in this game. Once you watch how your character moves, attacks, walks, runs, no game will ever feel the same.

Near the end of the game you get to play as a different android and she’s more naked than 2B so yea get dis game

1. You can upgrade the two main protagonists, literally. (2B and 9S) As well as their pods.
2. I believe it did, I don't know how much it was, though.
3. This isn't a survival horror game. You don't need to worry about that.
4. The game is open world and lots of fun to play if you like hack n' slash RPGs.

For sure get it! Was my favorite game of 2017 and for sure one of my favorite games of all time! Game is a masterpiece. I also recommend playing with a controller, games like this just play a lot easier with one.
