# Talk:Nier: Automata

Given that the Nier page itself only has one possible ending (kill the shadowlord), followed by additional add-ons if you play through it a second time that end in one of two ways (kill/die for the female fighter), this needs a full clarification. What does the Japanese article think "the fourth ending" is?
Similarly, nothing on the Nier page remotely fits the description "...went berserk...", so those characters need a less opaque and more truthful descriptor.
Similarly, Nier was the protagonist of Nier, not Emil. — LlywelynII 23:34, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

is not actually a thing in the English language. Are they trying to translate the Japanese for logic bomb? or just straight up computer virus? — LlywelynII 23:51, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

Just thought I'd throw this out, but despite what already added information states in this article, Square Enix have announced that Nier: Automata will be releasing for the Xbox One June 26. I'll try and edit the article to include this information at some point, but feel free to add to it should this be included at an earlier time.

 Done, although the wording might seem a bit too contrasting because of what they previously said. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 23:10, 10 June 2018 (UTC)

Is there a reason why the name is not spelled with a capital R?
That is, NieR: Automata?

Hello. I did a web search. It appears many sources have consistently capitalized "R". 5.78.108.87 (talk) 21:20, 21 September 2018 (UTC)
Because of MOS:TMSTYLE ~ Dissident93 (talk) 23:29, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

I noticed that a certain User:ProtoDrake did a major edit with adherence to the sources as the reason given, but that was exactly the thing lacking.
For example, the gematsu.com source does not substantiate the sentence "Other characters from both Nier and Drakengard 3 are mentioned." The source mentions 2B, 9S, A2, 042, 153, Commander, 6O, 21O, Adam, Eve, Pascal, Devola, Popla, Emil and ???. There are no other characters.

In addition, the new edit attributes the creation of the resistance to YoRHa, but the source says the opposite, which was in the article before:The Resistance Camp is where the Androids that fell to Earth before the YoRHa squad are based. These Androids have organized their own resistance army

All official media refers to the game as NieR:Automata. As such, the title of the article, and all mentions of the game within the article, should be renamed to reflect it as such. This isn't just a formatting style; it's the official name of the game, in the same way "YoRHa" is not "Yorha". Buh6173 (talk) 17:43, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
That's right. SNAAAAKE!! (talk) 17:35, 27 October 2018 (UTC)
Reminding you to fix the incorrect title, also to ask why there's no 2B article yet and do i really have to create it myself. SNAAAAKE!! (talk) 09:37, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

MOS:TMSTYLE. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 16:45, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
The current title is merely editor's choice, and by no means "correct" or absolute; see MOS:TMSTYLE. Anyway edit war (WP:WAR) is futile. --125.175.27.12 (talk) 05:42, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
Yes i think the same as well,it should be changed to reflect the title. WillsEdtior777 (talk) 19:33, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
Does that stubborn fool still object to change the title? See also Talk:Nier#Nier_is_not_the_name_of_the_character -- 03:56, 8 September 2025 (UTC)  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 153.208.46.114 (talk)

Snagging for later. JOEBRO64 21:41, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

@ProtoDrake: I'm going to start reviewing this before the end of the weekend. JOEBRO64 18:29, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
Well that comment aged well. Should start by the end of the week lol. JOEBRO64 23:13, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
@ProtoDrake: I am so sorry I still haven't started this yet, real life has gotten in the way, and when I'm on Wikipedia I'm usually doing something else. I promise it will be done soon. JOEBRO64 17:47, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
Finally, here's my review, @ProtoDrake:. Again, I am so sorry for taking this long. I did some copyediting on my own, because I thought it'd be easier if I took care of that on my own. Here's what it stood out to me:

I think we should refer to Square, Platinum, and 8-4 as "it"/"its"/"which", not "they"/"theirs"/"whose". E.g. "... English dubbing was handled by Cup of Tea Productions, who which had previously..."
Did my best catching these.
"... features additional costumes, elements from the , ..." Uh, something's missing here
Whoops! My bad.
In the "collaborations" I'd add when the collaborations happened.
Dates added.
That's all I've got. Placing on hold. JOEBRO64 20:47, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

@TheJoebro64: I hope I've addressed your concerns. Didn't think there'd be so few. --ProtoDrake (talk) 21:39, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
ProtoDrake, alright, it's a pass! And yeah there weren't as many points as I was expecting either. Might be because I made changes I assumed would be uncontroversial. Anyway, I'm adding this to the GA list. JOEBRO64 01:57, 11 November 2020 (UTC)
