Nier: Automata Has Smashed Square Enix's Expectations - Duration: 3:17.Nier: Automata is a game that Censored Gaming has covered many times now and for a lot of
reasons.
Not only was none of the game's content toned during localisation but series creator Yoko
Taro has made various statements now that have been largely celebrated by the anti-censorship
community.
For example, when asked why the protagonist 2B wears high heels, series creator Yoko Taro
responded with it being because he just "really likes girls".
Furthermore, when questioned on certain sexy fan art that was circulating the net, the
creator simply asked for all this to be collected together and sent to him in a big ZIP file
- so he could then start distributing them on a weekly bases.
Yoko Taro really is a special guy.
So, due to factors like these, Censored Gaming has been following the title's success very
closely and it looks like "success" really is the right word to use when discussing the
game's reception.
In Square Enix's recent investor conference, the company's CEO outlined their financial
results in detail, as well as their business strategy going forward.
Fast forwarding to Nier: Automata's sales, the company president has revealed that the
title in fact generated sales "significantly above" their plan.
So, not only above expectations but "significantly above" expectations, which is definitely great
news for fans and could also be seen as strong evidence for there being much support for
these types of games.
Nier: Automata was mentioned once more in a question regarding allocating human resources.
An investor asked the company: "NieR: Automata is a mid-sized title that
has produced strong results.
Will that have any impact on your strategy going forward, including the possibility of
revisiting how you allocate your human resources?"
To which Square Enix explained how their current strategy is to outsource mid-sized titles,
such as Nier: Automata.
To quote: "In terms of the balance between in-house
efforts and outsourcing, we intend to primarily develop our major franchises in-house and
to outsource mid-sized titles.
It is also important to cultivate new titles, and for that reason we are also thinking about
how tie-ups with external companies can help balance our mix."
Interestingly, very recently Square Enix announced that they would be moving the development
of the Final Fantasy VII remake in-house, ending their collaborating with external company
CyberConnect2.
In regards to exactly how many copies Nier: Automata has sold, whilst the presentation
doesn't reveal this, the game's official Twitter account announced a few days ago that this
is already over 1.5 million worldwide, which are huge numbers for a mid-sized title.
Other slides have shown just how much Square Enix has grown in net sales since 2012, with
the graph showing total sales increase year after year.
Another also breaks down the units sold by region in 2017, with Japan selling 5.02 million,
the US and Europe selling 26.64 million and Asia 3.10 million.
If you're interested in learning more about Square Enix's finances and business strategy
then there are 12 pages worth of info that have been made publically available from the
meeting and you can check this out yourselves via the link in the description.
Thank you for watching.

May Reading Wrap Up | 2017 - Duration: 9:57.Hey guys, it's Trina and this is my May reading wrap-up. As you saw in that intro
there, I only read four books this month. If there were any books that you saw in
the introduction that you just want to jump straight to that review then you
can always use the time stamps that I list in the description. I also put Goodreads
links to all the books that I talk about in my videos down in the description just
so it makes things easier for you to find. Let's check in with this month's
TBR now. So if you guys remember, I had four different reading goals that I had
set for myself that I wanted to accomplish in May. Out of these four goals
I only completed one of them. I did read the two new releases. Like I said, I only
read four books this month. When I say "only" four books, I'm just saying that in
relation to like my past monthly wrap-ups this year. I had been averaging
like around 10 books a month, so yes I did read less than average for me. There
were days where I just did not read at all, which is unusual for me but I'm not
going to force myself. I'm fine with that but that also meant that I did not hit
all those TBR goals. So, my lowest rated book this month was The Circle by
Dave Eggers. This is an adult sci-fi novel about a woman who goes to work for
this big social media company and throughout her job there she starts to
learn like this company is wanting to take over more and more aspects of
technology, of the internet, and they even start like overlapping into the
government a little bit and it just is really dictating the way that people
live their lives. So the premise of this book was just one that was right up my
alley. I really wanted to read this. And it really made me think about the things
that I enjoy with a concept like this, so the book delivered almost exactly what I
was wanting but I still only rated this book 2 stars and the reason for that
overall comes down to there was absolutely zero plot, there was no story
arc, and the characterization was completely absent. Our main character is
like the most dull, puppet type character I have ever read about. She would like go
along with whatever people were saying and then internally
say, 'I have no idea what I really think about that and I don't know why I agreed
to that.' She has just no sense of self. I did not understand her or her
motivations. And the biggest thing that I had in terms of being problematic in
this book was that there was just a ton of fat shaming in it. There is one
character in this book that is described as being 40 pounds overweight. He's in
the book for about two or three scenes but the main character thinks about him
pretty often and she always thinks about him using words like "disgusting," "gross,"
"sweaty." He's frequently called "Sasquatch." There's another statement about how if
anyone were to sleep with him they literally must be possessed by demons to
have found him attractive. It's not presented as, well these characters are
bad characters doing bad things and you should recognize that. it's treated as
we're supposed to hate that character because he's fat. That fat phobia is
something worth pointing out although that is not the reason why I gave this book
such a low rating. It was because I really enjoyed this concept, but the
execution just like was not there at all. I don't think that Dave Eggers is a
skilled writer. I feel like this story I made in my own mind when I heard the
synopsis of this book was a better story that what actually happened in this
book, so I was left completely unfulfilled. And by the way, I did start
to listen to this one on audiobook. I hated it. The narrator was terrible in my
opinion. I have reviewed it with examples of the narration in my last audio book
review video, so if you are still wanting to give this book a try and you're
thinking about trying the audiobook instead just to get through it quicker, I
really really do not recommend this. The book is going to be just a better
headcanon I think. You're going to be able to develop your own tone. The
narrator's tone did not fit the story at all. It was absolutely ridiculous. So I
did not have a fun time with either format of this book that I tried and I
just don't think it was well-written at all. Moving on, the next book that I read
was Fireworks by Katie Cotugno. This one is a YA contemporary novel set in the
90s in Orlando. It is about two best friends who are from a small southern
town and they go and audition to be in this next girl pop group, and one of the
friends really wants it, the other one she's just kind of going along with her
friend, and they both get picked to be in this new girl
group, and so there's kind of like some feelings of animosity but also
excitement for being there together, and then there are boy bands that they meet,
there's crushes, there's first loves, and you know it's definitely a summery YA
story. I did enjoy that this was set in the 90s, although there weren't like a lot of
nineties pop-culture references. Most of the pop culture stuff in here is very
fictionalized. The reason I gave this one three stars is because I ended up just
not being a fan of the way that this book explored friendships. I did not
think that this was a very healthy friendship. At times it was very healthy
and I was very like, 'oh I love this friendship,' but then there were other
times where I'm like, 'I don't know how I feel about that.' And I don't really like
the ending. It just kind of felt like some things were a bit unresolved. So I
don't have a ton more to say about this book. I did enjoy it, I don't hate it, I
don't dislike it or anything but it didn't Wow me. This is just kind of a
middle-of-the-road book for me this month. Next I read Windfall by Jennifer E
Smith, which is another YA contemporary story - this one's set in present
day - and it is about two best friends, Alice and Teddy. Teddy is turning 18
so Alice goes and buys him a lottery ticket for his birthday and he ends up
winning this massive jackpot. So this is a story about how money changes your
life. It changes all the characters lives that are involved in the story, it
changes their friendships. I really enjoyed the family vibe in this one. Like,
Alice and her family, oh my goodness I love them so much. She lives with her Aunt and
Uncle and her cousin but I absolutely adored them and just the love in that
family and even Alice's insecurities at times, I just really really loved the
family aspect of it. That was definitely my favorite part of this book. I was not
a fan of the romance in this book. There are a couple of options for
romantic interests in this book. It did not go the way that I wanted it to. I
just didn't really like the character that got like the romance spotlight in
the book. I just didn't like some things about it and like their relationship, so
again this one just kind of hit middle of the road for me. Don't dislike it but
it's not going to be like top of my list of favorite books to recommend. And the last
book that I read this month, which was the one that I
enjoyed the most was A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J Maas.
This is the third book in the A Court of Thorns and Roses series. This one does
have a finale to that entire story arc, although I know Sarah J Maas is writing
more books and novellas set in this world with some of the characters we
know we just don't know who they're going to follow or what those stories
are going to be yet. This is a new adult series, meaning that there is some
graphic sex, there is graphic violence in it. and it is a fantasy series about fae.
I had a huge emotional connection to the second book, A Court of Mist and Fury,
because that book really deals with abusive relationships and as someone
who's been through an abusive relationship it was a mirror for me and
I was hoping that some of that would carry through into book 3. There were
a couple of lines that really resonated with me, that I was like, 'how does she get
this?' but this book did not have as strong of an emotional connection for me
because it's really not about that at this point. This one is going much more
into like the war. I will say though that I was very impressed with how Sarah J
Maas wrote all these battle scenes and I think the reason I love the battle
scenes in this one so much is because so many YA series, or just any series,
they want the finale to be about their characters going into war doing this big
thing and then it ends up focusing on like one conversation that your main character
has with the villain and like maybe their little fist fight or something and
then the war takes place outside of them and you don't really know what all
happened. Sarah J. Maas somehow wrote like all the little aspects, you see all
the characters in this war and it felt epic and it felt like a large scope to
me. It felt very hard-fought to me. It felt like there was a lot at risk and I
really enjoyed that. That's what I always want in any kind of finale that's going
to end in a war. This is the type of war and battle writing that I want it to be.
Like there were things that came out of nowhere
that surprised me that I probably should have seen coming but I didn't. I just
really loved how she used every single character you've ever heard of in this
series and every single part of the world, they all came around in the end
and I just felt like I was very fulfilled by the ending. Now, I don't agree
with all of Sarah J Maas's writing choices when it comes to diversity. There
is a female character that says she prefers women
but she likes both women and men and I know a lot of readers have been
upset by her portrayal of that. There's another bisexual character who I do
think that that character has some really bad stereotypical tendencies. And
then there was a line in this book that I know a lot of people saw as being
acephobic and that one has caused a lot of hurt. I would not recommend going to
her books if you're looking for good diverse representation. So the short
answer is I was not as emotionally connected to this book as I was to A
Court of Mist and Fury, but I really enjoyed this one as an ending. It delivered the
war that it was promising and building up to so in that aspect it was very
satisfying to me and I thought that she wrote those battle and action scenes
very well, or at least in a way that I personally liked. That's everything that
I read in the month of May. If any of you guys have read any of the books I talked
about and you want to talk about them more, definitely leave me a comment. We
can discuss them further. And I would love to know what your favorite book
that you read in May was. Thank you guys so much for watching and I will see you in the comments. Bye!

Yo, ask the lawyer if that was alright. Disclaimer all right? all right, let's get started then
By managing www.verniceapolvere.it, my Italian powder coating company, in the last few months
I've received many inquiries about powder coating bullets
For those of you not familiar with fire arms, I'm referring to the part of the ammo that is
actually shot out of the gun or rifle.
here it is
So I documented myself and found out the lead bullets tend to lead up the barrel of the gun or
forcing the gunman to spend lots of time in tedious cleaning operations
Moreover, the lead tends to make a lot of smoke and smell, and finally it exposes the
shooter to lead contamination that, as we know now
is not really the healthiest thing in this world
Over time, many systems have been developed to prevent these problems, including full
metal jackets, or grease and oil lubrication
Today, however, the powder coating of the bullet is a viable and economical alternative
to prevent these problems, sealing the lead inside the thin coating of very hard plastic
So in this video we will use two different techniques for powder coating that do not
require the use of an electrostatic gun
I'll be using the powders that you can find on our site www.verniceapolvere.it which supplies
professionals and hobbyists with in small quantities of powder
This bag for example costs only 13 Euros and
can provide coating for about 4000 rounds of ammo
So a pretty good deal
But I've mentioned two techniques, The first one
is the wet one and the second one is a dry one
The wet one will require some acetone, a container where will mix the acetone with some powder
for powder coating
We have the bullets that we want to paint.
We have a tray made out of mash that we'll use to put the bullets in the oven to bake
We have another container that we'll use to mix bullets and paint and the small oven.
I've decided to use this oven to demonstrate how a very cheap oven can work for this purpose
and can be a dedicated oven because once you use this machine for powder coating you can
no longer use it for food because it would be toxic.
So let's get started and let's see how it goes
First of all I need to remove the grease that is already present on the store bought bullets,
this step probably won't be necessary for those of you that fuse your own ammo
Powder coating, like most painting processes do not like grease
To do so it's enough to put them in the oven at about 80 degrees Celsius, 180 Fahrenheit,
for a couple of minutes,so it will melt away
While still plenty warm, I rinse the bullets with some acetone to obtain a clean surface
ready to be powder coated.
This step is valid for both processes
Now I can start preparing the paint mixture I'll use to coat the bullets
All I need is about 15 grams of powder, that I can easily measure with a common kitchen scale
and then just about 50 milliliters of acetone
I'll use this graduated container to measure it out
Then I mix it with the powder paint.
While giving it a vigorous shake I realize that the acetone is eating away at the plastic container
Better use some glass with this solvent
I quickly transfer the mixture to a cleaned out marmalade jar and I'm back in business
Back to the shaking
After mixing the ingredients together I obtain a suspension of powder in an highly volatile
liquid solvent...Just the way I like it!
Watch out though... no flames around.
Now I can use this mixture to paint the bullets and that is why they are often referred to
as colored bullets!
The fact that this container is made out of plastic doesn't worry me, to coat this handful
of bullets I'll just need a few tea spoons full of paint
As soon as I pour I need to get shaking right away.
The acetone evaporates pretty quickly so I've got little time to act.
The paint covers the bullets pretty good and once the solvent has evaporated all that's
left is the powder
So the bullets are transferred onto the mash tray and as you can see the coverage is quite
spotty, it doesn't matter, it will be ok in the next few steps.
The oven is on and it's already at 200 degrees Celsius, 400 Fahrenheit.
I can proceed with the first round of baking.
I set the timer to 5 minutes, after about 3 minutes, when the powder has already melted,
I give it a shake to make sure the bullets aren't sticking together too much.
5 minutes is a long time to wait when curiosity is driving you nuts
The bullets are very hot, they need to cool off for a few minutes, but it doesn't take
long, they are just a few and they are tiny, so after 5 minutes they are ok to touch.
As you can see they are not fully covered with paint and that is why I need to repeat
the process another couple of times, just 2 or 3
I have to make a compromise between the look of it and the thickness
each coat adds to the bullets
The good thing is that with this technique the thickness of each layer of paint is so
small that even 4 coats are ok.
So I start the process again, using bullets that are still warm to facilitate the adhesion
of the powder, but watch out, if they are to hot you'll end up with a mucky mess.
Let's go with bake session number two.
You can see that the paint coverage is already much better than before, but still, let's
give it a third coat.
Since this is the last curing cycle I'll leave the bullets in for the full 10 minutes as
stated on the powder bag, so that I can be sure that all the layers have fully cured
After a short wait the bullets are ready to be handled... well, almost ready...
You know, I'm sure that you guys would certainly manage to be more patience and you will wait and won't get burned
I have to say I'm very happy with the result!
I can still see a few marking where the bullets were in contact with the net but I'm sure
that with a bit of practice the process can be refined a great deal
Here you can see the comparison between the before and the after
Now, before getting to the second technique, I'd like to remind you that if you are in
Europe you can find the powders used in this video on our site www.verniceapolvere.it
I will also write it in the description

Here comes the second technique the dry one maybe the simpler one
We'll need a Tupperware container where will mix bullets and paint
Then we will dump everything into our mesh tray
We will use some aluminum foil to recoup the extra paint
and recycle it for the next painting job
Then everything will go into our little tiny dedicated oven
So let's get started with technique number two and let's see what kind of results
we can get
I've tried to use only easy to find materials for this project
For example to collect the extra powder so that it can be reused many times all I need is a sheet
of aluminum foil to be placed under the mash tray
Then, with the bullets already placed into the container, I add a little powder, just
enough to cover them with a thin layer of color
Now, all that's required is a good shake to distribute the powder evenly on the lead bullets
Again, if we have them at a temperature of about 130 150 degrees Fahrenheit, it will
be easier for the paint to stick
I'm sure that with a little trial and error anyone can find the perfect combo to get the
best results
Once covered with paint, I transfer the bullets to the tray where the excess powder is free
to fall through the mash
My oven is always ready for baking
Today's chef suggestion is Roman style bullets! cooking time: 5 minutes!
The extra paint can be put back in the bag and reused without any additional steps
This makes it so that this process has practically zero waste of powder
After 5 minutes lunch is ready and the smell is delicious
Bu you've got to keep the temperature in check
You just can't trust these little oven's thermostats and that's why I Iike to use a laser thermometer
In this case I got distracted while talking to you, and I lost track
of the temperature
The consequence is that the bullets melted away, what you gonna do?
But I never give up!
With the magic of post production I'm back in a jiffy with a new batch of bullets and
this time I won't let you guys distract me...
I'm going to put an eye on the temperature
This is the result from just one round of painting
You can still see some marking of the mash and from the bullets touching each other,
but I have to say it all looks pretty good for now
With one more layer we should get a pretty decent product
Without letting the bullets cool off to much I go for a second powdering round, as you
can see you need very little powder
The net captures the bullets and lets through the excess powder.
If we didn't do this step, it could result in an uneven coating
and too thick of a layer of paint
Once again they are back in the oven and in very little time we can finally see the final
result of this second bullet coating technique.
As you can see with only two layers of paint we have a much better coverage that with the
same amount of layers on the previous technique
We do have a bit more of visible markings both from the net and from bullet to bullet
contact but, although the look factor is definitely important, we can certainly assess that the
objective of encapsulating the lead bullet in plastic has been achieved!
Mission accomplished!
Here they are, our powder coated bullets.
Now is time to press them into the casings.
You can see that my casings are just for show, there is no powder and there is no primer.
I just want to see how does the final product will look once done.
I borrowed this press from a friend that can put together a cartridge with the simple pushing
of this lever
All you need to do is line up the bullet with the casing and voila'... here is our pretty
bullet, nice and easy.
I think I like this thing...
I'm going to make some more
We managed to powder coat this bullets and I'm pretty excited about the results, now
I am no expert so I'm sure that you guys Will be able to get the best procedure in place
to get some top results out of this still powder coating techniques
All I wanted to do is to prove that it was possible and it was as easy as everyone makes
it out to be.

Nier: Automata Has Smashed Square Enix's Expectations - Duration: 3:17.Nier: Automata is a game that Censored Gaming has covered many times now and for a lot of
reasons.
Not only was none of the game's content toned during localisation but series creator Yoko
Taro has made various statements now that have been largely celebrated by the anti-censorship
community.
For example, when asked why the protagonist 2B wears high heels, series creator Yoko Taro
responded with it being because he just "really likes girls".
Furthermore, when questioned on certain sexy fan art that was circulating the net, the
creator simply asked for all this to be collected together and sent to him in a big ZIP file
- so he could then start distributing them on a weekly bases.
Yoko Taro really is a special guy.
So, due to factors like these, Censored Gaming has been following the title's success very
closely and it looks like "success" really is the right word to use when discussing the
game's reception.
In Square Enix's recent investor conference, the company's CEO outlined their financial
results in detail, as well as their business strategy going forward.
Fast forwarding to Nier: Automata's sales, the company president has revealed that the
title in fact generated sales "significantly above" their plan.
So, not only above expectations but "significantly above" expectations, which is definitely great
news for fans and could also be seen as strong evidence for there being much support for
these types of games.
Nier: Automata was mentioned once more in a question regarding allocating human resources.
An investor asked the company: "NieR: Automata is a mid-sized title that
has produced strong results.
Will that have any impact on your strategy going forward, including the possibility of
revisiting how you allocate your human resources?"
To which Square Enix explained how their current strategy is to outsource mid-sized titles,
such as Nier: Automata.
To quote: "In terms of the balance between in-house
efforts and outsourcing, we intend to primarily develop our major franchises in-house and
to outsource mid-sized titles.
It is also important to cultivate new titles, and for that reason we are also thinking about
how tie-ups with external companies can help balance our mix."
Interestingly, very recently Square Enix announced that they would be moving the development
of the Final Fantasy VII remake in-house, ending their collaborating with external company
CyberConnect2.
In regards to exactly how many copies Nier: Automata has sold, whilst the presentation
doesn't reveal this, the game's official Twitter account announced a few days ago that this
is already over 1.5 million worldwide, which are huge numbers for a mid-sized title.
Other slides have shown just how much Square Enix has grown in net sales since 2012, with
the graph showing total sales increase year after year.
Another also breaks down the units sold by region in 2017, with Japan selling 5.02 million,
the US and Europe selling 26.64 million and Asia 3.10 million.
If you're interested in learning more about Square Enix's finances and business strategy
then there are 12 pages worth of info that have been made publically available from the
meeting and you can check this out yourselves via the link in the description.
Thank you for watching.
