Yoko Taro Got Me

Spoilers below about Nier game endings, older games now but just in case:

So I did the suggested path with playing Nier Replicant first, then Automata. When playing through Replicant, I did use some guides on unlocking the endings without spoilers, but i knew ahead of time that the "save deletion" was fake and I'd get it all back anyway.

Fun game. Although a bit repetitive sometimes.

THEN I played Automata with a grand total of ZERO spoilers and guides. When I was prompted with deleting my saved data at the end, I laughed, said sure, and thought I'd get it all back like Replicant

NOPE! YOU GOT ME, LOL

Thought you'd all appreciate the laugh. Loved the game. Would have loved to have fought Emil and a few of the secret bosses but that's okay, I got my money's worth.
