From the niche work of “Bloodthirsty Dragon Knight” to the development of “NieR: Automata” (NieR: Automata), breaking the million sales of the previous series, the works of “NieR” have become highly acclaimed in modern times overseas. It’s not surprising to encounter fans who are pushing the pit, but for someone who wants to find a date on Tinder, it may be a bit strange to encounter someone who is pushing “Neil”.
This incomprehensible situation stems from my box An interview with Jen, a 21-year-old female gamer, was reported following she responded to a discussion regarding “Neal” on Twitter last week, claiming: “When I was hanging around on Tinder, I asked a bunch of men to buy ” Neil: Automata then blocked. I think I pushed around 22 people and stopped. I didn’t engage with them, I usually talk to them regarding Neil and block. High Sales means there will be more Yoko Taro games.”
I used to roam around on Tinder and get guys to buy Nier Automata and then ghost them. I think my count was up to 22 when I stopped. I mean I never said I’d fuck with them I mostly just talked a lot regarding it and recommended the game. Also high sales mean more Taro Games

As this post attracted the attention of the overseas Neil community, foreign media also approached Jen for an interview. Jen admits that Nier: Automata is her favorite game, and she initially just wanted to find someone to discuss the game, but since no one in real life might discuss it with her, she decided to try her luck on Tinder.
This incident sounds rather bizarre at first, but even without further proof, Jen’s personal Twitter also shows that she is a “devout” Neil series fan. In reality, she is a paralegal, and in private she is a A player who loves Japanese anime and game works, and her home even has a table full of Neil series merchandise.

It’s a pity that Jen’s approach failed to find a bosom friend. She told the media that most people don’t know regarding this game, because the other party is not interested in “Neil” but Jen. She even said that some people Hoping to see Jen go to Cosplay 2B following buying the game also made her gradually feel numb and tired. After confirming that the other party didn’t want to talk regarding Neil, she blocked them.
“I think it kind of numbs me over time, and I know I’m pretty bad, but I really think Taro Yoko’s game deserves more attention,” Jen replied.
In the interview, Jen revealed to the media that she admired Nier: Automata so much because she was in a bullying environment and affected by abusive family relationships at the time, and she was fascinated by it following the game came out. I especially like a line at the end of story E. Auxiliary machine 042 said: “The future is not given by anyone, but won by yourself.”
“Nier: Automata” is like the tone of Yokoo Taro’s past works. Tragic stories often have a thought-provoking dark side of human nature, while the character’s character reveals the bright side of believing in hope, whether it is character design, The world background, art and music are highly praised by fans.
In the end, Jen gave up looking for soulmates on Tinder. Fortunately, she now found her own community on Discord, and everyone on it liked Nier: Automata.
At the end of the interview, Jen said that she drew a nude painting regarding A2 and 2B a few years ago, so she got the attention of Yokoo Taro’s producer, and further said: “I think this makes me more obsessed with this series of works. (laughs).”
