10 Things You Unlock After Finishing Video Games (That Make You Want To Keep Playing)

Nier: Automata is well-known for its myriad of endings, some of which are meant to be treated as jokes and some of which are actually crucial to the game's story.

The most important endings can only be unlocked after completing the game several times, but the thing is, they aren't the only thing you get for completion.

Each time you finish Nier, certain aspects of its story and gameplay are changed.

For example, after beating the game first time as 2B, you will be able to start your next run as her sidekick, 9S, and reach a different ending. The same happens with A2's character, unlocking the final "actual" ending, with each android coming with their own set of skills and abilities.

This unique approach to new game plus - and video game storytelling overall - is a brilliant strategy for keeping the player glued to the screen. It allows you to start the game over (and over) with a fresh perspective, while contributing a sense of mystique and excitement to Nier Automata's full, complex narrative.
