NieR: Automata – Tips and Tricks for Beginners

Sell All Your Trash

Over the course of the game, you will pick up a lot of materials scattered across the world and dropped by enemies. Heck, you might even decide to take up fishing as a casual pastime and end up with lots of fish in your inventory. Most of these items can be sold for huge sums of money. If you’re unsure of what to sell, look at the item descriptions and sell the ones that specifically say “Can be exchanged for money.” Those are the items you won’t need for upgrading or anything like that.

That said, it is pretty easy to get maxed out on upgrade materials like Crystals and Copper Ore. You can only carry up to 99 of each item in NieR: Automata, so once your inventory is full, feel free to sell some of those for extra cash.
