The gameplay is kinda shit. It looks competent at first but you can't juggle bosses so the combo system goes almost entirely unused and in higher difficulties they're just annoying HP sponges more than anything else. You can also bypass most of the bullethell by just mashing attack and dodging
As an interactive movie it's alright, I guess. The pacing is all over the place and the payoff isn't that good, and thematically it's pretty basic and doesn't really say anything new (nor does it deliver it's story well enough) but it's a fun diversion, overshadowed by the story that came before it
Red pill me on this game. It’s on gamepass is it worth an install? I never played the first Nier

It's the best jrpg of the last decade, easily. And it uses the medium more effectively than any other game before or since.
You don't need to have played Nier, but it helps.
Do fucking NOT watch the clemps videos before you play it all the way to ending E.

>it's actually a fucking hack n slash

Gameplay is garbage and the story everyone raves about is shallow af. Just because it hints at themes you probably have seen or read about before in your life, it doesn't mean it actually has explored those themes in an in depth manner by proxy.

Its a repeat of the story told in the previous game.
And was done better there.

My friend told me word for word "Dude you wouldn't get this game without playing other games like first Nier and Drakengards it's literally the last game chronologically wise".
Now i really don't feel like playing it.

It's pretty self-contained, at most you'll miss some throwbacks to previous games

Radiant Historia had an ATB. That's my favorite jrpg of the past decade.
