Did You Know Gaming Looks At Nier's Secrets And Lesser Known Facts
Did You Know Gaming, a YouTube show about gaming trivia, has dedicated its latest episode to the Nier series. The video includes interesting tidbits from interviews with director Yoko Taro, including how he locked himself in a locker following outrage from fans when they disliked one of the endings in Draakengard.
Another noteworthy fact includes how Nier wasn't always planned as a sequel to Draakengard, but was instead first planned as its own stand-alone series. Yoko Taro says its original concept revolved around how picture book stories existed for real. Watch the full video below.
