Nier: Automata - 3C3C1D119440927 Review (Bun-Taicho)
If you're buying the Game of the YoRHa Edition, especially on one of the rare occasions it goes on sale, then you won't have to worry about buying this DLC separately because this is already bundled with it. Yes. It's a grind to complete the last few stages of the arenas. Absolutely. There's no denying that. I heavily recommend having the maximum amount of EXP Gain chips you can equip to hasten the process. That, and not rushing through the game in a way that has you missing out on side quests that give decent amounts of EXP. But like any other part of this game, when I got to the end of it, even the death and destruction that the grind necessitates made sense. And I enjoy this game's combat enough that I personally didn't mind. The reward for it is worth it. And no, I'm not talking about the outfits, which some of the negative reviews seem to think is all you get. But there's more in here AFTER you clear the arenas and got the heavily advertised lingerie for 2B. And like the rest of the game, I can't gush about it without spoiling it.
This is just about the most significant DLC I've ever played. Hell, this is the first and perhaps the only time I'm ever reviewing DLC. Because the ending for this is something else.
