    I keep getting stuck at the beginning in Nier Automata. Is there really no option to save until after like 30+ mins of gameplay?

      The game doesn’t punish you if you knock the difficulty down to easy for that section to get through it.

      Yup. There’s a story reason for it. It’s actually part of the charm of the game. But that first bit (which should be an intro cake walk, but isn’t) is a bad design choice IMO.

      Unfortunately yes. Perfect dodging the first boss regularly gets you killed. So… Play worse. But I promise it’s the only part of the game like that.
