NieR: Automata | Truth About the Human Race

While 9S secured an escape route for 2B, he hacked into the machine network and discovered files related to Project Gestalt. This project ended up a massive failure and all of humanity was wiped off the face of Earth. The Replicant data from the project was gathered and fired off to the moon as a beacon. The moon beacon was then used as a relay point to consistently ping messages to Earth and the Bunker to make the androids think that humans were still alive and well.
In order to perpetuate the lie and to keep the surviving androids’ morale from sinking to an all-time low, Project YoRHa was launched. This project sought to train elite androids to help take back the planet from the machines. By lying to the YoRHa units that humanity was still alive, the androids would feel that they still had a purpose and something to fight for as an android’s basic instinct is to serve and protect human beings. Knowing that all humans were dead would inevitably cause the androids to sink into depression, thus leading to their eventual extinction. Only a trusted few were privy to this information, such as the YoRHa commander.
Meanwhile, we see the mental breakdown of Eve due to the death of his twin brother Adam.

    The genius behind this twist, whether truly intentional or not, is that it serves as a lore check for whether or not you’ve played the first Nier. If you start with Automata, humans on the moon are just a thing at the beginning. If you know how Nier ended, you’ll never shake the feeling that something is off until that suspicion is justified here.

It ultimately doesn't matter who wins anymore. They're just machines. No longer having a purpose. It's like everything that you do in the game winds up being all for nothing because there is nothing to fight for. Nothing at all.

    This game is really depressing. A god dies or becomes weakened when believers die and prayers are never sang. Faith and prayers are the main fuel for religion. The fact that humanity is extinct means all them androids are dying for no absolute reason. 9S loses the one who gave him the meaning of life, 2B carries the pain of having to kill the person she deeply cared for due to the amount of time they spent together, and A2 still broken about losing her squad in Pearl Harbor. A story full of tragedies, a story of being trapped in the never ending reality of life and death. Yoko Taro truly gave us a masterpiece.

    M Fizz Humans got infected by the result of the remains (called Maso) of the Grotesquerie Queen that Caim fought when they both were transported to Tokyo in 2003 during the final battle of Drakengard 1. The result of this was the White Chlorination Syndrome in which humans were turned into salt. To rectify this the Hamelin Organization developed a way to remove a persons body (Replicant) and soul (Gestalt) from their bodies as doing so would make it impossible for White Chlorination Syndrome to take effect. Certain androids such as Devola and Popola were created to oversee both the Replicants and Gestalts, and magical tomes/books called Grimoires were created so that both body and soul could come together once more when the books were activated after a permanent solution to the White Chlorination Syndrome was created (which was found.) Afterwards this is where the events of Nier 1 take place.

Even though the android did fight back, but it was mainly Emil, the last human, and also a secret weapon who take the fight against the alien. He use all his power to become an 1 man army in order to hold the frontline just so that he could protect the world that his friends tried to save. In the first few thousand of years it was Emil and his clones who fight in the frontline. Until he slowly lost his memory, and reason for fighting, that’s why the machine slowly win the war.Shortly after, Yorha was created with council of humanity, that’s when the Android take the fight against the Alien seriously as they know human is still alive.

    Davy Jones I don't know about Kidnap and Torture. I mean to both the Androids and the Machines Humans are like gods to them which is why the theme of the game is "Become Like gods," which to them means to become Human. The worse case I could see is them being overly protective of the human to the point where they won't allow the human to leave the resistance camp or bunker for the humans own safety from getting kidnapped by the equally curious machines who may want to either study the philosophy of humanity or dissect the human (like what Adam wanted to do) to understand them. On the bright side you'd get to hang out with Devola and Popola or the Commander.

    Yeah Humanity is dead, but they have the genome, and possibly a lot of samples, they could clone back humans after winning the war, after all they are advanced A.I.s capable of deceiving themselves. Just my opinion. I finished the most of the game, but I always refused the last ending, I will not destroy my save... too many hours invested, and also I guess I am a selfish person... sorry guys :S

    3 years late but for the people who are still curious, it's explained in a novel that took place between Replicant and Automata (heavy spoilers obviously). Shades are the primary mob you face in Replicant and it is revealed deep into the story, that they are the souls of humanity that were separated from their physical body. Reason for this was due to White Chlorination Syndrome, a disease that effectively could not be cured and forced humanity to come up with this method. Humans came up with the idea of separating body and soul (called Project Gestalt) and while this seemed like a good idea, the bodies (named Replicants) started gaining sentience and their own sense of will and thus made it extremely hard for the souls (Shades) to fuse back with them. Through centuries, the Shades started going berserk and only a few people knew about Project Gestalt by the time Nier Replicant took place. P-33 was a robot that managed to befriend and understand a young Shade. Nier and his crew attacked P-33 and killed the Shade because a client of theirs gaslighted himself into believing P-33 and the Shade killed his brother, when in reality they had nothing to do with it (they just happened to be there at the brother's accidental death). P-33 survived Nier's attack though, went to space, and came across the Aliens' machines and taught them sentience. He was revered as "Prometheus" and was the founder of the machine's complex mind.

    @@kaz7690 Thank you for that summary, it's great actually.. but that's not what I meant... although the message itself could refer to that, of course. It could also be Number 9 losing his mind and seeking salvation when he's rid of his body. (death) My question is why Number 9 (9S's distant predecessor), as you can see in the Anime, put this message in the Bunker, but it was also in the Moon Server. (yeah I think I worded it badly 3 years ago) He was the one who prepared the backdoor for the Machine Network to enter and destroy the Bunker and YoRHa, why include this message there? Is it what gave him such despair? Or anger that the wanted all YoRHa gone? (Or I guess, maybe he wanted to defeat despair by keeping the lie that humanity is alive, alive) Who did he intend to see this message? The Machine Network? The YoRHa soldiers before their end? a future predecessor like 9S himself? _That's_ my question. 🤔🤨🧐 quite cryptic Mr Taro.. but it wouldn't be one of his games or stories otherwise.. Also, ALL these storybooks are narrated by Number 9 right? Except Emil's ofc.

    Androids were already around when the aliens invaded killing almost all of them, A couple thousand years before the aliens invaded androids started a human heritage restoration program, which tried to rebuild and protect the old world, i'm guessing they didn't want that to get ruined and probably wanted revenge, about a thousand years after that was started is when humanity went extinct.... atleast i think i'v only just started getting into the yokoverse.
