Welp, this came out this week and I'm having a great time with it already. If you enjoyed the philosophical questions Automata brought up about the purpose of life and existence, but were confused as hell by some of the lore-bombs at the end of the game, I definitely suggest the Replicant upgrade! With a bangin' soundtrack and a cast of characters whose chemistry goes splendidly with one another, I think folks who appreciated Automata's story will want to buckle in for another Yoko Taro wild ride.
Did you pick it up? Thoughts, reviews, discussion? There's definitely some frustrating grinding in this game that throws some folks off, but if you've got a little bitter nostalgia for how much work older RPGS made you put in, you'll be good.
Please be mindful of spoilers!
