How many millions of Frombabbies will it filter?

Niohbros, are we still coping that this won't be the most accessible game in the series? And that's a good thing!
>>
>>730741686
Nioh 2 filtered millions, so Nioh 3 will filter billions.

So this is basically juggleslop of souls game?
Why enemy not fighting back?

>>730744434
The video starts with the enemy having low poise
>>
>>730744434
Unironically yes. This is probably the most on the nose description of Nioh you can get. They can still be fun, but if you're expecting weight and finely tuned encounters, you will be disappointed. Everything is designed with the expectation that you will be shitting out constant fighting game combos with no down time.

It is fighting back, get your eyes checked. The game has a ki mechanic that lets you stagger them once it's depleted and the enemy is in that state for part of the webm.

Zero? The alpha was easy as fuck.

This will by far be the most dumbed down and accessible game in the series.

>open world

Team Ninja wants what elden ring had and elden ring was a souls game that appealed to the most braindead individual who games and after the flop that was Ninja Gaiden 4 they arent taking any chances.

It's probably going to be the easiest Nioh game because of deflect and open world.

They are definitely exhausting games, yes. You know those parts in DS2 everyone clowns on where enemies are all placed like they have been waiting 1000 years for someone to pass so they can jump them? Everything in Nioh is designed like this.
>>
>>730744434
The enemy is fighting back, you are just used to souls slop to understand fighting back an enemy that is attacking as a concept.

Not a Nioh game, just like how NG4 isnt a Ninja Gaiden game. Skipped and memory holed, next.

I don't think I've been sold on a single thing I've seen for it yet and their track record since Nioh 2 has not been good. I'm still buying but I'm a bit nervous

This but unironically. Especially if those boots have +10% active skill damage

If an enemy is swinging at you and you can just attack back, get priority and combo through, congratulations, there is no enemy interaction. You just made some DMC hacknslashsIop. You are beating up braindead training dummies.

That's because the baiting faggot of an OP deliberately posted a fragment where the enemy doesn't attack after being ki broken

there will be a demo on steam being released on the 29th but i will say the alpha was pretty fun and it was not boring to roam around the map.

This. Every enemy should have hyper armour, a 5 minute combo and I need to fill out a form to acquire a turn to do 1 attack before he does it again.

No, the + weapon is better
Also, you guys have nothing, one guardian spirit replaces 4 ring slots and more, you have zero customisation from the getgo

I got a really good dual swords drop early in Nioh 2 and it was nearly impossible to soul match to level it up with me throughout my playthrough. The amount of gold required literally left me broke at all times unless I grinded like an autist. Really bad design

ongbal will destroy this game no damage as usual lol

>>730745934
I hope Nioh 3 fixes this, Wo Long let you upgrade the same gear the entire game, but you could just changes the stats on it anyway so the drop didn't even really matter

Nioh was peak recent TN but sop came close for me. Close enough that I went back to nioh 2 and made isekai jack

>>730745783
This is what people have been asking for since Nioh 1, literally just interconnected Nioh levels. This is not some open field, just a bunch of Nioh environments stitched together and judging by the gameplay footage the individual setpieces are all pretty good.
>>
nioh is just mindless attacking from both sides
you wait your turn and mash
the game design is cheap so if you aren't overleveled you die in 1-2 hits that happen lightning slop fast

>>730746534
Same, watched a speedrun and from what I can tell it is the same BS as Dark Souls where the best tactic is to buff up then spam your best attack. If anything it seem like you roll/dodge far less than Dark Souls. Personally a fan of that as people rolling on the ground to "dodge" is the dumbest looking thing ever in my opinion but whichever having to press even less buttons is a good thing or not is subjective. Seem to have more systems and look a tad better than Dark Souls but look like the same shit different day to me. I haven't play Dark Souls 3 or even Elden Ring. I got bored of Soul-likes and want more normal metroidvanias nowadays. Exploring a massive land in 3D only really be a selling point the first time around, afterwards it gets old.
>>
>>730741686
Monster hunter filtered billions of soulsbabbies, Nioh should have no problems filtering the least skilled playerbase
>>
How come Fromsoft games elicit such violent inferiority complexes in fans of other games? It's so bizarre. Nioh only exists in the first place because Team Ninja was desperate for some of that Souls money.
>>
>>730745449
It's not Fromsoft fans, it's just that specific baiting idiot that you replied to. I like both From's games and TN's games and would never make a post like that or use the word "slop" in general.

Between your attacks depending on what you want to access but also to activate bonus ki regen based on swapping stances during ki pulse. When you get better you find yourself constantly switching stances every several seconds.

For what it is worth it isn't just fromsoft. There are Minecraft fans who still to this day will claim unmodded minecraft have better progression than Terraria. I feel any popular game series with "clones" will have defenders even if objectively speaking the "clone" outright did it better. Hell Pokemon fans still be defending Nintendo and hating Palworld. It is a gaming thing as a whole, not a game thing. When the hobby only require a person to sit on their ass and press buttons all day then of course you get the lowest of the low retards who will have opinions on that hobby. I'm sure soccer fans have words about American football and vice versa but it is easier to take words more seriously because they are serious sports that real working class people care about.

Nioh 3 is not a true open world, it's overworld is more like segmented open areas similar to older Monster Hunter maps or even Tokiden 2. Though still has missions that plays out like the older Nioh game mission structures.

It wasn't. It also was just part of the patch of the First Samurai, even if you didn't get the DLC. It added aa good few moves for most weapons

Originally Hatchets were meant to be able to be used a most ranges, outside of long range like bow or rifle or cannon. The idea behind them was that they were the 'attack regardless of enemy position', hence why something like Eagle's Shadow, the move that throws one above in the air

It's me, I'm the frombaby that 100% every souls game and sucks at Nioh (and Sekiro but that's not a real souls-like so whatever) and I STILL pre-ordered Nioh 3 so I can complain how unfairly harder is than Elden Ring while still dropping ~400 hs on it.

So what's the main villain? My bet is on King Enma.

It's good, more controller type of open world design. This isn't at all gonna be like Elden Ring or fucking Ronin.

Enemy got stunned by the best debuff in the game that's quite tricky to apply and was still fighting back despite being out of ki. Retard.
>>
>>730758028
I think so too. The worst part of these games is the abysmal pacing. Your character is a wet noodle and combat feels like shit until you start to get some semblance of a build online. Open world should finally give us the chance to bounce off the bullshit and go do something else

gachashit is all animation with no real interaction so of course they seem to move better, it's the least they can do, who care they aren't real games.

Played Nioh and Souls games at the same time, not much difference if we talk about difficulty, is always more difficult to reach the bosses than fighting them.
In terms of story Souls shit is obviously better, while Nioh tries to be "funny" too hard for his own good.
So yeah, almost the same shit.
>>
>>730761538
Why obviously? Every souls game except DS1 and Bloodborne have absolute gutter trash dogshit story. Nioh story is just passable which is still better.
>>
>>730761495
No, that's passive skills, which are a different thing, basically functions you can add to your character
>>
>>730761796
Every single Souls story has a stronger and more interesting narrative than Nioh 2. And yes that includes DS2. Everything surrounding Vendrick and Aldia is infinitely more interesting than the goofy ass shit in Nioh. William's quest for his fishwife in 1 was good however
>>
>>730741686
This looks so fucking bad
>>
>>730741686
know you're doing a funny meme, but if Nioh1/Nioh2 are anything to go by then this type of gameplay is trying way harder than you have to with weapons that are probably weaker than expected by the developers. And you can actually beat the boss with dark souls style gameplay pathetically easy because the bosses have 1/2 the movesets of fromsoft with 1 (probably grab) attack that has a hitbox that makes Dark Souls2 look like a masterpiece.
>>
>>730762307
>with 1 (probably grab) attack that has a hitbox that makes Dark Souls2 look like a masterpiece.
KEK. The grabs are so fucking awful and every single enemy and boss has one. It's insane and completely rapes the flow of combat. What the fuck were they thinking
>>
>>730762145
Souls games literally don't have narrative, by design. Only Sekiro has an actual "you go to this place and do X, you meet Y, and then Z happens". All their other games are just about discovering lore of things that have already happened 1000000 years ago.
>>
>>730762626
And yet they are still more compelling than the cringe carnival unraveling around your mute OC in Nioh
>>
>>730761538
>In terms of story Souls shit is obviously better,
nah, souls is pretentious af. it's psuedointellectual slop for normalfags to feel like they're smart
>>
>>730762307
Are you mentally ill, it's much easier to beat Fromsoft bosses with a Dark Souls style of combat (which the games were designed for) than the Nioh bosses with a Dark Souls style of combat
>>
>>730761538
Your stories need a narrative to exist otherwise it's just meaningless wordslop.
>>
>>730762790
There is nothing to be compelled by. Everything that interests you about DS2 or DS3 or Elden Ring's story came out of a youtube video that stole its script from a reddit post.
>>
>>730741686
It's been proven by fromsoft themselves that the second you introduce mechanics that force their souls baby niggers to interact with the game, they hate it. A lot of i-frame roll toddlers seethe ad Sekiro and how the game is about parrying and properly fighting enemies and not just rolling and shooting sword lasers or using bleed builds. The second they have to play the game without i-frame spam, they hate it.
>>
>>730761796
>Every souls game except DS1 and Bloodborne have absolute gutter trash dogshit story.
Out of all the games to have their story being glazed, I don't understand why Bloodborne gets a pass. The entire motivation for your character to do anything in the game is notes on the ground.
>>
>>730763015
Maybe for you, but I'm not a low IQ troglodyte that can't piece the narrative together with what's given to me. Foreground narrative Vs Background narrative. These are two entirely different things. I personally find background narratives more interesting because they don't consist of watching mini movies constantly in my video game holding my hand and telling me every little thing that's happening. Nioh story is like that silly chinese puppet show they air on their tv's with all the warlord toys bashing against eachother and saying triumphant shit
>>
>>730763076
You started out correct, but you shouldn't have mentionned Sekiro. It's the sekironiggers who hate mechanics in Souls games. They're the same people who think that rollspamming is good, because they like everything being defensive and being about "timing one thing = gud".
>>
>>730763149
Again, you are mistaking the meaning of the word. A "background narrative" does not exist in Souls games. It's just text scrawls and world building. That's not narrative.
>>
>>730750195

What’s the Onmyo status in this game? I heard they nixed it but also might have just rolled into into ninja. I did samurai and then ninja in the other two but never Onmyo so I hoped to try it out this game.
>>
>>730757565
Nioh has always been way easier than souls games. No one dies 100 times on a nioh boss like they do to souls bosses. And no I'm not saying one game is better than the other I'm just stating a fact. There is no way anyone thinks nioh is harder than elden ring.
>>
>>730764659
Unless there's some passive skills that you can unlock to make it better, it seems like Onmyo might just be about general support. I'd try out Onmyo in the other games instead.
>>
>>730764780
>No one dies 100 times on a nioh boss like they do to souls bosses.
You block and use magic for the Nioh bosses, yet refuse to do the same for the Souls bosses, of course you think they're easier you absolute faggot hypocrite
>>
>>730764861
So which side of the argument are you on?
>>
>>730741686
>that 5m dodge
>no stances
>filtering anyone
LMAO
>>
last time i played nioh it was nioh 2
i was so filtered by the combat that i switched to a bombs-only build, didn't even try to parry because the timings were so hard to get down
i put every single bomb dmg affix i could get on my equips and just throw bombs & run on every single enemy
it somehow worked lmao
>>
>>730765034
I beat every DLC boss in Dark Souls 3 on the first try, except Midir which took 2 tries, all because I DARED use a medium shield instead of rollspamming like an idiot. That let me prevent attacks that I didn't know the timing of, and gave me the leeway to learn them so I could react to them eventually. You can do the same in Nioh because you can block. And yet, the logic is lost on you faggots who claim to die 100 times to the same boss in the Fromsoft games.

If you play the Souls games the same way you play the Nioh games, and you use the same logic and the same tools, you'd realize that the Souls games are much easier, and you wouldn't actually die to their bosses.
>>
>>730765382
You're assuming a lot about how people play nioh and how people play souls.

>>730762145

The missions will be specific levels like they did with Ronin. I'm pretty sure it won't be reusing open world areas but with trees blocking the usual path here and there.

The state of this Nioh thread is awful and it really needs to be the 29th already so we can get some better threads going again. We had a fairly nice one that reached bump limit like a week or two ago but I guess they can't all be like that.

I personally stopped discussing the games I'm playing years ago. As usual I will play Nioh 3 but I won't discuss it here (or anywhere else).

That hasn't been true for years and you know it.
I knew /v/ was over for good videogame discussion when every game I played during 2019 sans Sekiro was omegashitposted to death, and eventually Seki- sorry, "the parryslopper" got its turn too.
Even old and classic games are impossible to discuss now due to /v/ declaring war against them.

And let's be honest here: you don't need to talk about a videogame to enjoy it.

Honestly I wish China actually took over the entire world and anons actually lived under the CCP.

>>730762870
Maybe you're fucking retarded or something, but you missed the point completely. Approaching nioh bosses with "dark souls" style of combat turns them into a joke.
>>
>>730742201
I havent played 2 but god damn the level design in Nioh is pure ass, maybe this is for the best
>>
Why do people on this website act like there's some significant difference in audience between Nioh and Fromsoft games? The only place I hear that is on here. Everyone I know irl that plays Dark Souls likes Nioh and vice versa
>>
>>730741686
Nioh already filters them on the regular
>>
>>730767510
not really you have to deplete the boss KI bar before doing any real damage to it while maintaining your own ki so you can defend yourself, and you can't roll from most attacks

Because it is.
- As someone who plays both I've found that all my Steam friends who play Souls games don't play Nioh and viceversa.
- The reason I play and enjoy both is that I'm not particularly passionate about either. I love both games but don't LOVE them, if you understand me; for example the only ones I got all the achievements are Elden Ring and pre-DLC Lies of P (Arlecchino filtered the fuck out of me). Meanwhile people who are genuinely harcdcore into one can't stand the other.
- Both games are very different at so many levels.

I wonder why the FromSoft devs bothered to put so much text and weird environmental set-pieces into the game... It's probably just, you know, there. No other reason.

>>730767425
Specifically around when a game/expansion/demo releases and during the weeks after, you do get some good discussion, even here. Of course there's plenty of shitty threads as well and even in the good ones, there's often at least one screeching retard. But when there's actually new stuff to talk about, the people playing the game will temporarily drown those idiots out and mostly ignore them. Of course, you don't need to talk about games to enjoy them, never said anything about that.

Like when Dolls Nest released earlier in 2025, we had very good threads going for like 3-4 weeks after launch until most people finished it and then discussion dried up. That's a more niche game so it's easier to have good threads while Nioh is a bigger target for shitposters, but even Nioh will still have good threads occasionally. "Good" is relative of course, you'll never have one that's completely free from bait. Hell, the Nioh 3 alpha got a few good threads because we were all playing it and had stuff to discuss. The state of modern /v/ is indeed poor but you can occasionally get the right people in one thread to keep discussion going. It's just not this one because it started out with Fromsoft flamewar bait.
>>
>>730767929
Give Bleak Faith a try. I liked it and the devs are working on a expansion.
>>
>>730768132
Or you can simply not waste your time here, tiring yourself desperately defending a game you like from retards, and just enjoy the game.
Pretty much everything I played in 2025 was either unanimously hated on /v/ or no one played it; imagine if I had allowed /v/ to ruin my enjoyment of those games.
