Nier General Discussion

I wonder if the conceptual hax in Nier is combat applicable.

also does this mean that since yorha is AE type 1 that means 2b won’t die unless the network is destroyed aka via conceptual means
 
Guys, something else. Reviewing the powers and abilities. Can we take all the maso shindig and condense it to just magic? Sure maso warps reality. But DC magic is rewriting the code of reality. I think we should take a look at some of these cuz they be batshit insane.
 
So, how's everyone feeling about the anime so far? Or am I the only one who isn't really feeling it?

Oh, small Nier tweak? In the scene with Lily, 16 asks about Lily's shields and Dahlia says she doesn't have any since Lily is a pleasure unit.
Would that be enough to say they have passive energy shields?
 
I've been feeling off put by the pacing. It felt like they were trying to cram in so much they didn't get to linger on anything that actually happens.
 
I gotta say. I was a bit bummed by the anime so far. Plus all the hiatuses. But the new four episodes were certainly worth the wait and addresses many of my gripes of the previous ones.
 
Speaking of which, now that the anime is out, we definitely need to recalc that 7-A A2 calc since we now have a much more proper distance here.
 
I can do that. But I think there should be greater discussion on what to do with the anime since it deviates so much from the games, books, and...I need to see if the manga was updated.

It's been a while since I rewatched the anime, but I don't recall any major story deviations. Plus, A2's backstory is never visually shown in the actual game itself other than some texts, so it's fine in this case.
 
Also I don't think the manga has reached that point yet. It's still at chapter 13 and we haven't been to the feat yet.
 
If we focus on only the black box bit, in the book No 4 had shoved A2 to the ground just a few moments before she detonated. If I recall the reason we went with a shot from the play was because its imagery matched the books while giving us some more definitive measurements. We had some back and forth on whether or not we could predict how far they were from being shoved to the ground. In the anime No 4 threw herself into a hole. So we're looking at a distance of less than a meter versus I'd say about 10 meters (eyeballing).
 
Preliminary calculations is getting me a City+

I also have a small stack of calcs ranging from City to Mountain I never followed through on. I'll try to get these all sorted away.

It should be noted that the anime also shows several new abilities including passive energy shields for the androids, the Pods overcharging for an AoE as well as a single pod super charging its laser. I had tried adding it in a different revision thread but because of the deviations from canon was suggested the anime get its own set of profiles.

On a not calc related note, I was hoping with all the changes the anime had made they'd make one more and have 2B and 9S switch places. Frankly I think, given 2B's history, having her be the survivor would open more interesting possibilities.

Eh, I don't think they'd go that far lmfao. They changed only the minor story elements.

That's probably better as an AU thing imo.
 
Calc updates.

Accepted
Grun Slap (game) Mountain+ .
Eve's Tornado (game) Small City (was hoping to get the Mountain would be the one accepted)
No2's survival (anime) Large Town
Holding up a Leg powered Goliath (game) Lifting strength M.


Pending
9S getting nuked Mountain+ (game event but used the anime to get explosion size. Was told that it shouldn't be calc stacking if they're the same missile type)
Adam's Kaiju Lifting Strength G (Was hoping to also use it for AP but there isn't anything particularly impressive about it's punching.


In progress
Grun Downward Smash (game)

If the anime is going to reflect the game then an Engles battle is coming up which was a source of big numbers in game so it might produce bigger numbers since everythign is moving faster

Engles falling from the sky. (anime & game)

Vaporizing Adam with an orbital laser (anime)
 
Do intelligence clarifications need a CRT? I want to expand upon the intelligence section. Now for the machines and 9S I actually do want to make changes so that would require a CRT and I'll include once I get the anime calcs approved. But for just about the rest of them, I just want to expound on what is already given.
