NieR: Automata Texture Pack v0.73 Greatly Helps Improve a Forgotten Gem on PC

NieR: Automata is a superb game released in early 2017. It was met with great critical acclaim when it first released on PS4 and Xbox One and was significantly praised for its combat, story, and presentation. When it released on the PC later that year, the latter was found to be very … lackluster. With many gamers reporting low-quality textures and graphics. It has been over a year and a half and the developers have yet to address this issue. NieR: Automata Texture Pack v0.73 fixes the game in a substantial way but does sacrifice some performance along the way.

NieR: Automata Texture Pack v0.73 – Why you NEED this.

Let’s make one thing clear. The game at stock is truly a mess in terms of graphics. You can see the comparison below to see a whole new game presented to you before and after the texture pack has been applied.

You won’t take a very significant hit to performance, and even if you do, the developer of the mod has a very neat FAQ page to help you counter these troubles to help deliver you a smoother gaming experience should you experience stuttering or other issues.

You can download the mod by going to its official Steam Community page.

How well does it work?

Here are some additional screenshots for you to get a better idea of the differences ahead of you.

You can see that the After images are a whole lot sharper and offer more detail. It is good to see that the game has been given so much attention from the community and love despite the developer forgetting about the game. The same happened when Dark Souls first released on the PC with fans using their own mods to fix the graphics and other broken aspects of the game themselves.

You can find instructions on how to download and apply the texture pack on the steam community page linked above. There are also some solutions to problems to help you along the way if you do face any issues.
