What happens next to Automata is Reincarnatiওon. It was the story about the Moon Server, it was the game that finally officially and explicitly connected Nier and Drakengard series on-screen in-story and showed how humanity was revived post-Automata.

“Played it enough to know”. Meanwhile Reincarnation is the stor🐈y about the Moon Server and how humanity got revived. You didn’t need to enter your credit card at all to play Reincarnation or even finish the game. Most people finished it for free. It’s not as if the other Nier games didn’t have a price tag on them. A lot of misinformation in here.
