With [Re]Incarnation wrapping up in only a few weeks, they could use its story as some kind of connection to a 3rd mainline title.

Either way, whatever he does next in this universe, I'm in.

I was there too!

However I thought Nier 3 was confirmed when the Producer that came out before Yoko Taro said he was the Producer of Nier 3???

Hell yeah, I was there at London! Absolutely fantastic night, and I'm really hoping they were actually teasing something.

I just hope they get Platinum again. The gameplay and music were by far the best parts of Automata. The story itself was whatever.

If you were at Barcelona, you saw the composer, Keiichi Okabe, and he never said anything about Nier 3, for sure.
Berlin

Some dude came out before Yoko Taro, I believe he said he was the producer for NieR 3 as his introduction. Accents and whatnot aside I can be wrong about his position but I definitely heard NieR 3, for sure.

He said it so matter of factly I was like "guess I missed the announcement a while back, then"

If you are sure about hearing Nier 3 from them then it definitely feels like they were teasing it.

Hmm, interesting, but I think maybe you misheard him say NieR series as NieR 3?
I feel like others who where there would have talked about this otherwise.

But unfortunately I wasn't there so who knows, it's definitely about time for a new big Yoko Taro game.

The story is like the best thing about it. Music was by Monaca (who will 100% do whatever Taro does next again, willing to bet money there). Gameplay is like the icing on a delicious cake.

I was at the same show, he definitely didn't say Nier 3. They just came out to say hi and thanks.

The gameplay, while flashy, felt pretty shallow and the difficulty didn't feel very well balanced either.

I'd prefer to see what SE internally can put out.

I got subtweeted by Yoko Taro, huh? I regret my words and actions and shall R3PENT accordingly, hahaha.

(Seriously, it's kinda weird to me how so many outlets have picked up a mere anecdote and run full articles with it, I even said in this thread I didn't think anything was imminently happening. I assume another NieR game will eventually come out for consoles given the success of Automata, it's just too much money on the table for them to not)

We are all real thirsty for a new Nier haha

To be honest I'm surprised this wasn't reported on by anyone else before you made that post in the other thread.

That is the part that's most shocking to me, that nobody else seemingly had made comment online about the cheer for NieR 3 part. Even if it was a joke, you'd expect someone to have posted about it before I had!

I read in a youtube comment that this popped up in previous concerts as well, so it's likely nothing. A sequel also wouldn't be considered Nier 3 anyway, that's Reincarnation

I know Taro loves its mobile games and everything he does is canon, but I imagine once they formally announce the next Nier it'll be treated and marketed as the third mainline game in the series. Like I would be very surprised if they ever tell you to go play Reincarnation in any capacity when talking about the next Nier.

Yeah, but if Taro himself is behind the R3PENT stuff, then I doubt he would skip over his own game like that. What would make the most sense to me if it would simply allude to a third game subtitle starting with R in it lol

Both of them litterally said two months ago that their next game is not Nier. I feel like we should accept that.
I feel like most people have accepted that his next game isn't Nier, but a possible tease for next Nier is still exciting even if it's not coming out anytime soon. As another example, look at the reactions to ME5 tease(s) even though we haven't even seen DA4 in action yet.

At the very least we now know they probably have some ideas for Nier 3 and it should be in some form of very early development (assuming the Repent thing is a tease of Nier 3's overall themes).
