Nier: Automata director made the game he wanted to make and tried to stay hidden from Square Enix
In a new interview the eccentric Nier: Automata director Yoko Taro has said that the game turned out just how he wanted it, but he was also cautious to stay as far away from Square Enix as possible to realise his vision. He said that he feels he is making "normal games targeted towards normal people" but everyone thinks they are slightly weird games, "which probably means there's something wrong with me." "For Nier: Automata, I wasn't told to target anyone," Yoko explains. "I just made what I wanted to, and I tried to stay hidden from Square Enix as much as possible."
