    I’m not aware that many players dropped the game. AAFAIK, the game was positively received and many people liked it.

    Most people that drop a game out of boredom don’t tend to talk about it that much. That just lets the diehard fans dictate the narrative about it, especially for one that requires multiple playthroughs like Nier

      It’s well liked by critics (88% on metacritic) and the audience (very positive on steam). Your opinion is an outlier. Let other people enjoy things.

      It doesn’t require multiple playthroughs. The game’s chapters are just structured in a weird way. Each “playthrough” that’s required has a different perspective and/or story than the last one.

      Even if you consider each chapter a “playthrough”, then each of those is just a few hours.

        (88% on metacritic)

        There’s plenty of movies on metacritic with high rating but completely boring. Not really a good metric for quality
