Nier Quick Look

leave a comment »

Fred tackles the next game in his quest for conquering cult classics. Nier is quite possibly the title from last generation with the most cult appeal and with last year’s announcement of a sequel it’s time to get it done.  This series will continue to grow in both this post and on the playlist on YouTube.  See the video description on YouTube for timestamps of the different sections.

***The live stream had issues until around 13:30, if you can’t handle choppy video/sound then you may want to skip to there.***

Footage was taken from a live stream of this session on twitch.tv/gh101. This series airs Wendesdays at 11pm Eastern, but additional sessions may be announced. Follow @TheRealGH101 on twitter to get announcement details. Each episode will later be uploaded on this channel.
