Welcome back for the April 2018 episode of our Game-of-the-Month Club! This month we played the 2017 release Nier:Automata from developer PlatinumGames and publisher Square Enix. We had so much to say about Nier:Automata that we’re even considering doing a second podcast later in the year just to cover it all! It’s an amazing feat of storytelling, action, adventure, and so much more. Join us as we discuss what we thought of the game in our GotM podcast.

As always, THERE ARE TONS OF SPOILERS IN THIS PODCAST! If you haven’t played it yet, we recommend you stop everything, reexamine your priorities, and spend 80+ hours playing this fantastic game. Then come back, listen to the podcast, and leave your comments below!
