I’m lovin it. I was scared at first thinking,“how they gonna go in so many directions in one game?” Well, looks like they found a way to do it and make it work. It just seems to do everything well IMO. Nothing new, but it does all of these things we’ve seen before and it does them as well as anyone else has. The biggest difference is that no other game has done all of them at ONCE. Of course, there’s the little matter of 2b’s…“B”. I’m going to enjoy watching the oceans of salt from the whining hordes who’ll complain about this character. The makers of said game have already made it clear that they don’t give a fuck, so let them beat their fists on the wall of money that’ll stand between him and them. I hope the Emil mask becomes the new troll face just for them. in fact, I hope we can get the Emil head in the game.
I wonder if Gamestop will reimburse me with their rewards program - Pro members can buy select games (Automata being one of them) at a $10 discount for the first month of their release.
If they do, I’d be shocked. Gamestop is probably trying to keep all the money that they can at the moment.
Not sure if this is a spoiler but with playthrough 2

Playing from a different character’s vantage point is the way to do it. After beating the game, you play the game from 9S’ perspective. That includes missions that are totally different from 2B’s. The hacking gimmick is pretty fun. Even in real world combat, he plays differently from 2B. There are even little variances in the story that enhance the experience overall. This is how you do it
Not a real exploit, but that area with the lvl 38 enemies that keep coming is a good place to go rampage until you get as much cash as you desire. I discovered that one on accident when I turned my anger and hatred on them for something they did that would be considered a spoiler concerning 2B. Well, after a few hours (and level ups and getting so many parts that I couldn’t carry anymore.) I had a lot of money. Spoiler Alert there are some places where you will need big pockets, so get your money right.
Didn’t know there was a parts limit in the game. I have pretty much been fusing every chip that I come across and spend the upgrade components. That is good to know.
I stopped “repairing” the other Android bodies. I have so far found them only to be machine fodder. The fallen bots are better suited as loot crates. I do always pray for them though LOL
yeah. 99 parts. The ONLY (And this is rare shit) time that repair is good is that sometimes the repaired bodies drop better loot when they blow up. Seing as how you said you’re already on the second playthrough, you’ll be strong enough to get the better stuff with or without them. Also…Auto Heal + ofenssive heal + deadly heal = immortality. Seriously. It’s near impossible to get killed after this. You can just tape down the machine gun button for the pod, and play dodgeball until the health returns. Also, apparently you can stack auto heals. if you have a 3 and a 2 active, they both combine to help out with the heals. This also works with OTHER chips, such as Max HP, weapon attack up, ranged attack up, etc. (Note: Will only let you get up to 20% speed up even with stacking. :sad: ) Now I’m Looking to stack a pack of +6s on the weapon. Gonna turn 2B into… ONE PUNCH WAIFU.
I know I know. I’m banned for the rest of the year, but I had to say it anyways.
Those chipset suggestions coincidentally was part of my C loadout before I finished playthrough 1. I spent most of my money on the chipset spaces, fusions, and higher powered chips. Never ran into an exploding body. Body retrievals were sometimes how I got some pretty awesome loot.
By the way add Vengeance to that. I got a +4 chip retrieving a body. 25% chance that if you are hit, 50% of the damage dealt goes back to the enemy.
Ah. What I meant by exploding ones is when you repair a bot, it’ll detonate after a little while and leave you some goods. On that subject, there are some doors being…well, guarded isn’t really the right word. They’ll self destruct after talking to you, but I have yet to get into those doors, so I don’t know what
s on the other side. Yet.
I am not sure how this worked, but I came across a section in the 2nd run. There were just bodies. I racked up, but I didn’t purge my chips so I lost some of the loot. Some were extremely valuable. I think the game converts it into “G” if you have too many chips. I had about 5K before and after grabbing about 10 bodies, I was up to 35K. There was one chip (Shockwave +7) that I got that was not there when I went back to setting up. There is only one other reason I can think of that makes sense why I didn’t catch some of that stuff. IMO, If it’s not being used or fused, get rid of it.
Beat the 2nd run. This game just keeps throwing epicness at you. When you beat the 2nd run . . . . .
Spoiler
You get an entirely new section of story that takes place after you beat Eve. It even has it’s own intro. As in you have been playing Part I, now things are about to get real!
This game is not as technically deep as some other extreme combat games, but the experience kept me up to 3 AM.
