"You don't get to decide who lives and who dies. She has a life! She has meaning and worth, and we're going to save her! Everyone has something to live for. Even Kainé...even Yonah."

This week, Dave Jackson (Tales From the Backlog) joins Rick as they discuss NieR: Replicant, the 2010/2021 action JRPG from the mind of Yoko Taro. Taro has a penchant for telling bleak stories with humanity at their cores - is Nier the same? We go over these thematic ideas as well as the mechanics, dev history, and story. Part 1 will cover up to the time skip, and part 2 will cover the remainder of the game.
