So it's woke? Why are journalists giving it a high score?
>>732272732>excels in all aspects of game development.>tons of crashes and pop in and the game looks like a fucking ps4 game but with bloom>$70-120 dollarinos
>>732272571Who?
if normies flock to it because of the glowing reviews, this might be the last good nioh game but i'm super excited for it.
>>732272571>It's 86 nowSorry Niohbros it's a flop.
Woke DEI slop. I will never forgive them for what they did to my boy, William
>>732273104what did they do to your boy, William?
>Finger Guns>Nioh 3 expands the series from tight bitesized focus to expansive open world design over multiple time periods. And while the third samurai soulslike still plays incredibly, its structurally compromised by recycled enemies, easy difficulty, too much loot and a nonsense plot. Bigger is not always better.>7/10Yup, that sounds about right.
>>732273158William is now trans and has removed his white cock. now okatsu is cucked forever to being childless. sad times.
>80 dollarsNah dude.
>>732273160>3 games later>still crying over Diablo loot
The demo is sooooo boring, but if the game is cracked day 1 I'll play it. Otherwise I'll just play Nioh 1 (which is still better than 2, outside of lacking Switchglaive).

Every team ninja souls like game i have played its really hard for one mission then the difficulty immediately craters because you have so many tools just thrown at you. They get boring
>>732273160>plays incredibly>7/10Why are game reviewers such extreme retards? I would never describe a game that I think is a 7/10 with the words "plays incredibly"
>>732273612Oh boy a From gobbler talking about slop
>>732273160>its structurally compromised by recycled enemies, easy difficulty, too much loot and a nonsense plotSo the same as the first 2 games? i'm just gonna wait until all dlc release and then pirate it, i don't understand why these games refuse to have variety and difficulty from the very first playthrough why i should be forced to play the game 5 times to get the same thing as fromsoftware games?
Another blunder from Team Ninja Maybe they should follow Itagaki's example and die already
>>732273717"Too much loot" means they got filtered by not having enough autism.
>>732273763Sounds like 3 is easier than 1 and 2, but thats the furst platythrough, we'll have to see how it ramps up on higher difficulties. I also hope they go all in for the DLC, just to end the series on a high note
>>732272571>87that's a mid score, lil bro. ts a hard flop
>>732272571The horrific slowdown and desync combo in cutscenes is definitely a 10/10.
burning villages, caves and ruined temples bros. we eating good.
>>732273717Because a game is more than just how it controls? Dragons Dogma 2 played incredibly too but everything surrounding the game was a fucking mess.
>>732273891ayyymd?
>>732273717i mean this is how i also feel about the first 2 games the controls feel great but everything else is shit>>732273829nioh 1 and 2 were much easier than fromsoft games in early playthroughs
>>732273160>reviewer complaining about the game being too easy Not a good look.
>>732273907He didn't say controls incredibly he said plays incredibly, that is, the moment to moment gameplay you are ingaging with is "incredible". If a game has "incredible gameplay" then it's at least a 9/10 automatically.
Never finished Nioh 1.Never played Nioh 2.Never played Wo Long.Never finished Rise of the Ronin.Only Team Ninja rollslop I've finished is Stranger of Paradise.
>>732272571You know its a paid shill when he credits game journalists unironically.
more sovl than pathtraced monke game
>>732273957>>732273763>>732273829Lets not forget how easy is too get levels as seen in the demo, so difficulty perception might be affected by it. You can always keep your level down to spice things up a bit if NG is THAT easy, and Im sure there will be some bullshit on higher difficulties
Reminder that Dark Souls 2 has a metascore of 91
im cooming
>>732273957>>732273829Have you not played the demo? Besides Yakotsu Baba and Bloodedge Demon, the enemies were pushovers. Fucking Yoki are just slow ass sandbags you combo to do as ninja or 2-3 shot with odachi as samurai. This is me with really spread out stats and substandard equipment. Some of the new skills are almost mmo tier in how strong they are, odachi especially felt really overtuned more than usual I think. I am sure I am not supposed to be just deleting 5+ gaki or rogue bandits with a single chargee stone volley or drifting snow combo.
>>732274082>radar
>>732272571Code Vein bros......
>>732272927>MUH GRAFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIXkys
>>732274093That could be influencing the early game I think. Levels in previous Niohs forced you down a certain level and gear range but here you can go different paths just farming revenants and mobs and just overlevel and get good loot maybe. Any word on how the end game is?
>>732274427best part is the graffix actually look insane
>>732274397>CV2 has denuvo>nioh doesn'tbased denuvo signaling shit games once again
>Its as good as WildsLETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>732274517>Wilds is almost 1 year oldWhat the fuck
>>732272868>captcha changes>/v/ is good again for like 3 weeks>all of the sudden a flood of posts going "woke woke woke woke leftist liberal trumpy trumpy the left the left tranny tranny troon" flood the boardThese types of posts are so clearly obviously bots, I wish there was a way to just kill all the people who ran them.
>>732274517Fuck off paid shill. Get the fuck out of my board.
>>732272954babyGODS won
>>732274650Epstein owns this place unc
>>732272571If it ran well I would get it just to kill some time, but it runs like dogshit. My rig is not weak I have a 4080 and a 12700k. The whole point of this build was an eternal 1440p machine like the 1080ti eternal 1080p machine. Fix your shit Team Ninja.
I did purchase this but might just refund if the game is the same difficulty as the demo with the same amount of enemies everywhere, and then just apply a crack to play it. They don't deserve money for the shit they pull in nioh 2 where I got bored fighting the same few enemies.
>>732274626I'm not a bot it just took me a while to figure out the new captcha
>>732274806What is it? I had to do stars and shit a couple days ago but then it matures in 5 days' time and gives you free pass
Test. What new captcha? The half circle things?
>>732273929Havent given jewvidia a songle cent for like 15 years.
>>732274893proving my point. Completely nonsensical bot post made to train an AI.
>>732274806in that case you're a retard, which I already knew, so you're essentially indistinguishable from a bot posting here anyways. You should leave. Or kill yourself. Whichever you think is easier.
>>732275092I figured the captcha out. I earned my place
>>732273654You never did, so wtf is different today?
>>732273654What's the problem with an in-depth loot system?
>>732272661I mean, it doesn't even have a release date yet and it's not even a similar type of game, other than "set in old school Japan and has yokai." Not really part of the conversation. But yes, the Capcom-backed revival of a beloved series will probably outsell Nioh 3, but honestly this game seems to be getting mainstream attention in a way prior entries haven't. I'm not as sure of that as I'd have been a week ago.
>>732275346I mean, you can call it deep, but it's also kind of "Random bullshit go." Having a loot system that's absolutely packed to the gills with RNG, where loot drops from everything every two seconds, can be overwhelming and somewhat boring, especially early in when even low tier gear matters, so you're hopping into the menu every few minutes to see if things you got are upgrades. The smithing system also makes it so scrolling through each individual piece in case a useful upgrade is on something otherwise useless has merit. It can just be a lot, and I can see why it doesn't appeal to some people.
>>732274626Body Type A/B is woke, it's settled.
>>732272661Didn't you see how fucking garbage that looked? I'm sad that slop enjoyers like you even exist.Capcom is fucking deader than dead.
>>732272927Works on my machine, poorfag cope.
>>732274893I hate doing the stars but I love doing the rotating shapes, I wish they also rotated in 3D too.
More Nioh was basically the ideal outcome all things considered
>>732272571>playing lootslopbegone shill
>>732276812It's gotten way better reception at conventions from normal people than Nioh 3 . Fucking cope. Capcom has way higher talent than fucking Team Ninja
>>732276463Yes, even more so when you realize like in Nioh1-2 that none of it matters until newgame+6 or something. Like a weapon? Doesn't matter it'll get replaced in 10 minutes by a generic one, doesn't matter if you were lucky or not, it'll get replaced.
>>732277025neck yourself tranny
>>732274301Yoki didn't get dangerous unless they were using kusarigama anyway.
>>732272571Honestly like every Nioh is godly good it's literally Diablo with gameplay (something Blizzard can't do)
>>732277063You are obsessed faggotNo wonder you like rainbow loot shit
>>732277041Talent at being woke traitors and fake jap devs, maybe.Reception from who, fucking journos? How is that not a red flag? Delusional, shit eating normalfaggot.
>>732277147>t.ranny
>>732277041bru Team Ninja is probably the second best developer after From Software.
>>732277107It devolves into Diablo once you get a build going anyway. You just spam 1 move and kill everything instantly.
>>732277237but their graphix are le bad :( :( :( :(
>>732274517Wilds was unironically a top 3 game from last year so this would be a good thing
>>732277243still more fun than diablo
>>732277416that isn't saying much
>>732272571>>It's kinoit's surprisingly high for such a bastard game. i mean i like nioh 1 and 2 but holy shit the "difficulty" is just cheap as fuck. you can literally get 2 shot by a common enemy no matter how far you are in the game.
>>732277735They went overboard in the other direction in 3 so now you can facetank a full combo from a boss and still be alive
>>732277092They were still dangerous if they managed to catch you and at earlier levels you avoided fighting one in close quarters unless you can break his horns. Here you can just stunlock him with ninja 1kat or 2kat.
>>732277735Ninja stance has no defense, samurai stance has no mobility.I'm struggling to find weapon combos I like because the samurai weapons I like don't match up with the ninja weapons and onmyo magic I like. The lack of mobility in samurai made me put all my points into skill and play 90% ninja stance. Feels shitty.
>>732277836>samurai stance has no mobilityLight armour samurai is just as mobile as in previous games (aka, extremely fucking mobile)
So, does the base game only have NG and NG+?
>xe complains about "loot"Don't tell you unironically think these games play like fucking borderland or something, you smoothbrained retarded fake non-gamer
>>732277164>Reception from who, fucking journos? How is that not a red flag?Basically, if IGN and Kotaku reccommend it, then it's kosher and most likely woke in some way. We already know Nioh 3 has body types and is censored.That's why I always laugh at leftists pointing to other leftists to show consensus. See Awards where it's just far-left kosher sources.
>>732277735The demo for 3 is too easy, that's my only complain.In Nioh 2 if you get 2 shotted you deserves it anyway.
>>732278004This.>nuCapcomOf course it's woke. They've been on the train since a long time ago, it's much more core to their company than any other jap devs who are being forced into adding Type 2s and censorship (like this game is, sadly) rather recently but don't otherwise give a shit about dei, at least not yet./v/ of all board giving Capcom any praise at all in any ways shape or form is just ridiculous to me. Even if their games were good.
>>732278197RE9, Pragmata and Onimusha will all mog this low quality game. Fucking cope with your defects.
>>732278256I out leveled the demo content incredibly fast. I see corpses of level 5-10s near the last boss of the demo, I was like 20 when I reached it because I finished everything.
>>732277041Capcom is a shell of its former selfDmc5 was a miracle, everything else in re engine is dog shitkunitsugami is decent
I'm on the last area of the game, anything that you guys want to know?
>>732278367See>>732278349And these are only in 1 year. Team Ninja could never pump out 3 games like this in a year again, fucking cope
>>732274738>12700kkek
onimusha gameplay sucks
>>732278427Does the game have as many new bosses as Nioh 2?
>>732277041Onimusha looks like shit to me, like a bad mix between DMC5 and some Snoy movie game, it just doesn't look that fun to play.
>>732278528It's not one of the fucked skus. Obviously going AMD next build, but at this point the next build won't be until like 2030 at the earliest.
>>732272571Better than elden ring
>>732274493>i bought code vein 2 cause of denuvo>will pirate nioh 3 cause no denuvo despite liking the demo way more than the entirety of CV2simple as also the game is way more expensive in my country than it should be, like 30% more, fuck koei
>>732272571>braindead journo reviewsTell me shill, do they at least pay you?
>>732278462Yeah you're right they could never release 3 turds in a yearRe6 was the last good one btw
>>732278427How many areas
>>732273902You sound like you'd be a good leader of local bandits group
Game's confirmed to be easier by literally everone. But at least we can always drop level anytime, so I'll keep it below the recommended level for each mission. Im also considering not doing any side stuff till the later difficulties
>>732280114>Disingenuous cucks who say stupid shit like this are the ones shilling Nioh 3. Yeah, definitely not playing this now. Looking forward to seeing the news that the game failed. You deserve everything you enjoy to fail.
>>732272571>don't want to drop $69.99 dollerydoos on a brand new game when I'm going through my ever growing backlog>don't want to miss on launch week Nioh-posting with the /v/rosGod gives his toughest battles to his cheapest soldiers
>>732272571Nah, it's mid and devoid of substance. Played the demo to 100% completion and wanted to kill myself at the end. The Ubisoft Ronin influence is destructive.
>>732277092>Yoki didn't get dangerous unless they were using kusarigama anyway.Or cannons.
>>732274678Sweet Baby Incorporated
>>732274093>You can always keep your level downFuck off with this shit.
>>732274301Yeah everything felt very squishy in NG. The high level Raiju got its Ki depleted by 2 Rumbling Earth.
>>732274517Wilds is literally unironically the best game of 2025.
>>732278635I don't think so, also all the side content is exclusive bosses coming back from nioh 1 and 2>>732280330''3 open world'' maps and two more that is the size of a castle
>>732281360You wanted to kill yourself? You should try to get those emotions in check. There's people you can talk to.
>>732274481It looks like a ps3 game, judging by the pics posted in this thread. I swear, Nioh fandom is like a cult, never able to take any criticism and always deflecting with "tendie" or "from drone" when faced with negative feedback.
why do none of the reviews talk about the ninja mode gutting weapons' movesets. has no one played the other games? what the fuck?
>>732284941Team Ninja has the best looking character models and martial arts animations in the industry. their game are beautifully detailed with great ost always. you niggers have shit taste and think only plastic looking shiny games look good.although I sure do hope you faggots get filtered at the game by the visuals alone.
>>732285079because it didnt?
>>732285116filtered at the gate* meant to say lol.
>>732285116I hope you get paid well for all the shilling you do. I still remember the wo long shilling months before it was even out, and surprise, it was shit. Same thing with rise of ronin.
>>732272571Okay but what to actual people think of it?
>>732285168where the FUCK are my STANCES
I'm level 50 in the demo right now. Will I have to reset my stats to a more reasonable level if I don't want to make everything super easy in the full game, or is there level scaling?
>>732284941what happened to gameplay over visuals? you fucks only play this card when it suit you right
>>732285195>wo long>rise of the ronin you didnt like those games neither? man you really do have abysmally shit taste. I would not trust you regarding anything in life.
>>732285227>muh stances!how many stances did elden ring have? Didn't see you crying then.
>>732285324I could say the exact same for you liking the two piles of garbage. You must enjoy eating shit as well.
>>732285342i dont know what elden ring has to do with this conversation as i didnt play it
>>732285324>esl babbleStands to reason that Nioh fans are mostly thirdies with no taste in games.

>>732286091Kek, seething like a little bitch I see. I accept your concession.
Loved Nioh 1, loved Nioh 2 but I've seen nothing about Nioh 3 yet, mostly looking forward to playing it but have they shown any cute girls yet? I think that's a core component and given it's current year I just wanted to check
>>732272661new Onimusha is going to be worse than dawn of dreams im calling it
>>732286314>have they shown any cute girls yetMostly big titty yokai in promo material

I want to show you my character but fucking hdr makes the screenshot look horrid
>>732286929I'm glad faggots like you got filtered.
>>732272571GOTY!
>>732286929elden ring is overrated
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUqO9e4YvU0It's up
>High stance against yokai>Middle stance against humans that you can parry>Low stance against small enemies and crawliesIs this basically the basics for the stances?
so can I cheese the entire game with ninjutsu again
>>732287493I raped the demo, it is the easiest Nioh game by far. I'd rather replay Nioh 1 and Nioh 2, not touching this casualized time wasting open-zone slop that is Nioh 3.
>>732287796yea ninja is op
>>732287751Overrated is an understatement
>>732287767IIRC, light attacks on high stance don't bounce off on human enemies blocking right? Or am I misremembering?
I’m going to buy it mainly because I like supporting actually putting out fucking demos get a clue other nigger ass devs but it does run kinda shit, even if it’s playable for me
>>732287767High stance dps Mid stance defensive blocks and parries Low stance small fags yeah
>>732287817Sure you did. Go be a joyless nigger somewhere else.
>>732287817>Dude why doesn't the Nioh 3 early game demo have the hardest enemies in the game? I mean what is this casual bullshit? I'm so fucking cool, they should sticky all my posts
>>732288137>enjoying running around in an empty worthless meaningless open-zonekek
>>732288187Keep shilling faggot. Both Nioh 1 and Nioh 2 are more superior to Nioh 3.Team Ninja has no future.
>>732286314>I've seen nothing about Nioh 3 yetYou don't wanna know what they did to pic related anon...
>>732272571should I play Nioh 1?I already own Nioh 1 and heard high praise from 2
>>732288212>meaningless no game will ever fill the gapping seething hole in you and provide your miserable existence with meaning. you better off just killing yourself. hope you decide on it sooner than later.
>>732287751why do niohfags hate other soulslikes?
>>732288396Inferiority complex. They know the majority of people don't like the lootslop.
>>732288396why are you talking to yourself?
How's the co-op in this? Haven't played the demo or looked too much into it. Just looking for a good coop game
>not a single hard boss in the entire first actits over
>>732288365no, stay out nigger.
>>732273612Nobody is claiming that Sekiro isn't also a great game. No need to be a party pooper.
>>732288396i didn't even know what a soulslike was when i first played nioh. lmao i thought it was a spiritual successor to onimusha
>>7322883785 rupees have been deposited in your account
>>732288365I like Nioh 1 better to be honest because we control William instead of shitty toons
>>732274626Whats funny is that if you post porn it gets taken down in seconds but if you post thinly veiled /pol/slop they don't bat an eye
>>732272732This is extremely concerning. I liked the games they make not "soulslike" games as a genre.
>>732288378Said the ugly brown skinned hindu devil possessed jeet worshipping literal demons xD.Nah faggot, I am not killing myself.Mission select in Nioh 1 and Nioh 2 have meaning and value, the open-zone of Nioh has no meaning and no value, it is a negative.Stop drinking cow urine and eating cow shit, stop worshipping demons, repent and accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour, that is the only way your life will get better.
>>732288530So just like nioh 1 and 2
Bros don't spoil but is Tamamo in this game too? I know there's time travel so she's gotta be there, right?? Right?
>>732289041don’t you have a e33 thread to go shill in?
"Nioh 3 has nothing to offer that hasn’t already been put out by other, better soulslikes. Outside of the occasional interesting boss fight, I found nothing but tedium in Nioh 3’s bland and deeply unengaging world."https://www.videogamer.com/reviews/nioh-3-review/
>>732289194Sounds like me after I lose a few dozen times to a boss then come back a few days later to beat it.
Played the demo and it was the same Diabloshit garbage as always with rehashed assets, annoying story and casinopuke visuals. How people make fun of Ubisoft games while defending this shite is beyond me.
>>732289194>Nioh 3 has nothing to offer that hasn’t already been put out by other, better soulslikesSuch as Nioh 2
>>732289194+ Plenty of customisability+ Pretty accessible+ Switching fighting styles on the fly- Boring open-field maps- A completely unengaging story- Bland, functional gameplay
>>732289192I don't shill, because I am not a brown skinned jeet like you. Stop shilling Nioh 3, it is inferior to Nioh 1 and Nioh 2.
>>732289194>"Nioh 3 has nothing to offer that hasn’t already been put out by other, better soulslikes. Outside of the occasional interesting boss fight, I found nothing but tedium in Nioh 3’s bland and deeply unengaging world."Truth pilled and based.
Nioh fags shitting up /v/ with their countless threads....
>>732289194https://www.videogamer.com/reviews/elden-ring-review/ok
Every journo is a load of shit singing the most generic praises so they can continue to receive free shit>duude the style is so innovative you can go ninja style to throw shurikensYOU COULD ALREADY DO THAT IN THE PREVIOUS GAMES WITHOUT LOSING YOUR STANCES
>>732272571the mode switching is extremely gay just let me make my build whatever I wantand don't fucking tell me "hurr durr just dont use it!!" like the devs aren't going to design multiple enemies and bosses around using the mechanic
>>732274517>88
>>732287767You swap stances for the bonus when you ki pulse, higher attack high, free block mid, free dodge low, or during animations when you want to do an attack from a different stance after. Vs Yokai you use whatever attack breaks the horns first which depends on the abilities your weapon has. Spear has one that swipes vertically in low stance, 1kat has a acouple good vertical ones in high, for example.
>>732285324lol I love Nioh but both of those games are total dogshit that just made me wonder why they didn't just make Nioh 3. And now here we are.
>>732289829You can change the counter part of it to be a tap of the button and the mode switch to be hold. Unless they somehow find a way to make enemies counter ninja or samurai specifically that should be enough. I stayed samurai only once I found that bind and didn't have any issues in the demo at least.

>>732289378ubislop
can anyone post a webm of the new "teleports behind u" parry?
So did they fix the form-locked weapons in the full game? They just flicked the switch and added the move sets that are already made, right?
>>732289378Because the combat is the best the genre has to offer. Ubislop combat is a joke.
>>732290802no
I love nioh 2 and I'd gladly buy this game 1 year later at a deep sale. The jews at Team Ninja are charging me the equivalent of 90 fucking dollars for this game in my shithole while Capcom is still selling their newest shit at 60.
>>732290179Ninja Gaiden 4 is the only good game, the other 3 are all dogshit.
I would get this day one but I have so many games to play, maybe Ill get it for my birthday or something later this year. Looks awesome.
>>732273612I enjoy both Sekiro and Nioh. What now, console war fag?
>>732290797this cant be real
>>732290953>NG4 >not dogshitLmao
>fists are ninja onlyYeah fuck this retarded shit I'm cancelling my preorder, why can't I just use the weapons I want in each mode? What was the point of adding what effectively boils down to a 4th stance that only works with a handful of weapons? One of the most incompetently put together sequels I've ever seen just fucking call it wo long 2 at this point

>>732290797this is mass effect andromeda tier holy shit
>>732291448Samurai has fists too. It is unlocked after you beat the hag, which is kinda retarded.
Have ANY of these fucks mentioned what happens in higher difficulties? Can we continuously reset the open world like in RotR?

>>732290179YEAR OF THE NINJA, and we still got NG4 and Nioh 3 DLC coming

>>732291559Fists are samurai, talons are ninja. The ninja locked old weapons are splitstaff, hatchets and tonfa. It also gets its own category of both 1 and 2kat. I fucking hate it, but you will have your fists.

Did ninja stance actually gut normal weapons or can you just not unlock everything in the Demo?
>>732292221You're either doing something wrong or your game is seriously bugged. There's even a samurai icon for the samurai style on the right side of your screenshot.
>>732292281I didn't know it was THAT bad god damn.
>>732289194>other, better soulslikesThis is the one that really gets me lolBetter Soulslike such as? Lies of Piss? Nioh is really the only other "Soulslike" that should exist. Every other game in this "genre" other than Nioh and Khazan devalues it
>>732272571can i even play Nioh 3 without having finished Nioh 2? I did end up like 10 hours into the game only if i remember correctly, having been filtered by a boss and rage quitting and never touching it again or the gear and loot system annoyed me to that point.I did however spent like 200+ hours in Nioh 1
>>732292284How'd you come to that conclusion?Doing everything in the demo is like 6~ hours and the demo is only 20-30% of the story through the first open field.
>>732272571Nioh kicked my ass when I played it. Do you guys think these reviewers made it very far in 3?
>>732292221Bizarre. Are you filtering them out somehow? That's the only thing I can think of.
>>732291496>it isn't a porn SFMwhat on earth are they doing at ubisoft

>>732292393yea you can
>>732292417Yes, everyone seems to agree 3 is considerably easier
>>732284691I don't really know what to believe because some reviewers said there were 4 open-field maps and leaker and you say three.Is it just that one of the big linear chapters is very huge but not an actual open-field so some may confuse it for an open-field?
>>732292456Not even close
>>732292441i'm an umachad tho
>>732292393You should play Nioh 2 becuase it's a better game than 3 and TN's best Nioh-like.
>>732272661Capcom hasn't made a single good game in like 2 decades lmao
>>732292390Yeah. Nioh is actually pushing that formula and genre forward and doing its own thing instead of resting completely in their influences.
>>732292393Just play 3 the difficulty curve got better and there's an auto pickup and auto equip button so you almost never need to look at your gear ever again beside pushing the sell all button from time to times.
i prefer samurai stance over the streamer/game reviewer stance tbqh
>>732291105You're not allowed to say that
>>732292531>Nioh-likeI will now hate Nioh 2 purely on how fucking stupid you are
>>7322924171 is probably the hardest Nioh for a first time player.A first time player hitting the Nioh 1 DLC on their first playthrough is probably the hardest point in the entire series.
>>732292569>Nioh is pushing the formula... by making comboslop with color coded parryslop mechanics
>princess tsubaki mission>this playshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6nRRE3xVP4holy FUARK
>>732292407>demo is like 6How the fuck did you take 6 hours on the demo?
>>732292602Same. It's just so much more fun than Ninja.
>>732292284most people are saying ballpark 40-60h first playthrough base difficulty which is better than I expected
>>732292706Because I did everything there was to do in the open-field zone, all the quests, all the collectibles, bloodedge demon, explored the buildings and individual areas for chests and loot, killed all the crucible wraiths and then did the crucible.And then I replayed the Crucible mission like 30 times to get all the crucible skills for every weapon so I actually spent 20 hours or so.
Does this have Tamamo-no-mae dating mechanics?
>>732292425I have no clue how to filter all the other weapons are there>>732292349probably bugged then, this piece of shit has been buggy as hell the entire time I've been playing, never experienced a single bug in 1 or 2 and yet somehow this one has had every bug imaginable, I'll check again in a year or two and see if they've fixed anything I guess, sad that I even wasted my time on this piece of shit demo just for this
>>732289719Yeah, elden ring is better despite having a simpler gameplay, what of itA fucking game also needs to consider stuff like level design, enemy variety... not just how many fucking strings you can do to style on your enemy and for some reason some people can't get that through their thick heads
>>732292456Ok gook.
>>732292879That's a shame. I haven't had a single bug in 16 hours.
>>732292670Your dumb word string is more than you can do in any Souls game kek.
>>732292706>How the fuck did you take 6 hours on the demo?If you try other weapons, farm bloodedge demons, unlock crucible skills and try coop the playtime increases quite a lot
>>732292879If someone claims they haven't had Fatal error in the demo they are lying.
>>732292658>What are Wo-long, SoP, RoR
>>732290797woke
>>732293083It wouldn't even start for me.
>>732272571I like the Nioh games, but watching dozens of other games get shit posted into the dirt because of "type A Type B" and nothing else but Nioh getting a pass is bullshit.
>>732293083I haven't had any fatal errors. I think I got stuck in some geometry for 10 seconds at one point. Otherwise it has been a flawless experience on the technical side.
>>732292906>despite having a simpler gameplayIt's because nioh 3 is just shoving in more and more mechanics that are meaningless, what percentage of players are realistically going to change their weapon skills beyond the ones that are there by default? Why is ninja mode not just a fourth stance? Why are there so many collectables/side activities now? Kodamas, cats, the flying weasels, jinzo statues, mini crucibles the breakable walls and rocks, random hot springs, and I'm sure there's more they'll introduce in the fill game, its verging in to ubisoft territory at this point

>>732292281>>732292367I didn't mean to respond to this thread, merely lurking and laughing at the seethe, but yeah, this is one fucking horrible game. I forced myself to play through it once when I got it as a present and holy fucking jesus christ that shit was bad. One of the worst games I've ever played in my fucking life. I don't care if you don't like NG, Nioh, Dark souls, what ever the fuck, none of them hold a candle to what this fucking atrocity is.

>>732293916On your PC.
>>732294361Yeah the gameplay of running around a map and clicking on a collectable to watch a number go up apparently
>>732294375I like Nioh 3, but an ADD fest of constant distractions that lead you off the path of your main goal is not "goal-oriented".
Niohtards really are the modern Ninja Gaidenfags. They do nothing but jerk off over combat that isn’t nearly as good as they think it is and pretend that every other aspect of the game being utter dogshit doesn’t matter at all actually.
>>732288781Good. Kys cumbrain
-impossible to make an attractive mc-can only equip one weapon (in the demo?)-deflect seems to compete with/overwrite bolting boar/bolting boar just kind of sucks now-no equipment appearance change (in the demo?)---bifurcation of mechanics/armor/weapons/character animations is beyond retarded and nothing will change my mind+the new weapons seem very cool+the returning weapons keep their identity for the greatest part+the open world seems to be handled very well+extremely cool spin on preorder shit (game releases on the 6th, can get demo completion bonus by 15th, can get early purchase bonus by 20th)=the game seems generally easier than 1 and 2; grabs don't do obscene damage=a lot of tutorializing for new playersHaven't killed the magatsu warrior yet but have completed everything else.

>>732294649>-no equipment appearance change (in the demo?)it is in the hub. behind Fuku there's a mirror that lets you basically set an "appearance set" that overrides any armor you wear.
>>732294765That is a man wearing makeup
>>732294765I mean she's not ugly, but the Nioh3 MC is impossible to make as pretty as Hiddy. It's a huge step down. Whatever engine they're using for WotR and N3 is total ass in that regard.
>>732286346seconded. despite the fact that dawn of dreams was my favourite right after 3.anyway, I have 0 hopes in Capcom to deliver something decent.

Part of me is worried the game isn't gonna feel as "fresh" and that it will rely too much on placing recycled assets on generic empty fields. I really hope it has enough memorable missions and setpieces so it doesn't just all blend together
>>732295114
>>732294879>but the Nioh3 MC is impossible to make as pretty as HiddyOf course, it's impossible to top my waifu anon

it's hilarious that in the 4 years i've had my current pc and all of the beautiful games i've played in that time, that THIS is the game that requires me to upgrade.

I see the shitcord is in full meltdownie mode after the CHADviews came in.NiohGODS run this fucking board
>>732294649You can equip more than one weapon (there was a locked skill for weapon change attacks I saw for samurai)Honestly grabs SHOULD be more damaging, I'm getting one shotted by that one bloodedge double overhead but not his grab.
>>732295336Yeah that's not too bad but she'd still look better in N2.
>>732294595I usually don't go to threads where I have no interest in the game or topic.What is your goal here? You've never liked Nioh, but really felt the need to write-up a blog about how you suck at it.Filtered, mayhaps? Get good lmao.

>>732295426>(there was a locked skill for weapon change attacks I saw for samurai)Yeah, I'm holding out hope I can still Bolting Boar~Sign of the Cross in the full game, but we'll see.>Honestly grabs SHOULD be more damagingI agree. The nerf completely destriys Dweller and Gaki's only schtick, but entire game has been toned down from N1/2 so it's whatever. There'll still be NG+s to do.
>>732295457I think it's the same schizo who starts to have a melty whenever a fotm hits and people have a thread or two about it hitting the bump limit at all times.

>>732274626>>732288781You want the board to stop talking about woke and trannies? Like how it was in the past? Then start making games without woke and tranny like how it was in the past. Don't blame the people for pointing out retarded shit in games

>>732294649Read your skill treeflux can be unlocked in the full game which you can view in the demo, why would it describe flux stance swapping to another weapon if there's only 1 weapon?come on actually use your brain and read.that means we unlock 2 again, just like we also unlock 2 equipable guardians.

how many hours til release on steam?
Finished the demo. Magatsu was hard, but I like that they balanced hom by having low HP.Biggest complaints are that the CC and photomode are fucking ass, and the bifurcation of modes. Shinobi mode looks so much cooler than samurai, but you can't share armors or weapon equips, it's just fucking retarded. Absolutely braindead design choice I can't speak negatively enough about.Demo's made me want to buy the game, though.
>>732299728By utterly floppin with NG4 and Rise of Ronin. Nioh 3 was the break glass incase of emergency game. Remember how a few years ago the devs said they were putting nioh in a backburner because they already exhausted ideas on what they could do with it and someday maybe expand the setting to european myths like Ireland because of William's own guardian spirit? Lol.

We are 100% going to get the monster hunter treatment next. Say goodbye to samurai stances next game so they can appeal to their new market since 90% of the playerbase is only going to use ninja.
>>732299952>By utterly floppin with NG4ng4 came out in october anon, they didnt make Nioh 3 in 4 months(alsoNG4isgoodonlyjeetslikeFarnhamhateit)
>>732300167If that ninja can use odachi I don't care.
would I be able to use the demo save with the pirated game?
>>732300167what did monster hunter remove to appeal to the casuals audience?
>>732300461The actual hunter part of the game.
>>732300210Rotr came out much much earlier. The statement was said during Wo Long's marketing back in 2022. They likely started making the game as early as 2024. Considering most things are literally just recycled I doubt it gave them a hard dev cycle
>>732272571i played the demo, the open world stuff works a lot better than i thought it would. i also expected to hate the stance switching between ninja/samurai but that's been fine after I got used to it. i usually just run around in ninja mode and only switch to samurai on a boss once i've blown my toolsonly thing i don't like is it just feels like there's too much loot. i know that's a lame criticism but you're just picking shit up constantly so you kind of just have to turn your brain off at some point or else you'll go crazy checking the new shit you pick up every five seconds. first two nioh games had this problem, but at least they were linear enough that i always had a good stopping point after each level to go through and clean up my inventory/equip my best stuff after every level, but the open world set up kind of removes that break point.also performance is kind of eh, was running on standard quality for the tutorial and everything was fine, but as soon as i got to the open world, things started getting framey. my graphics card is a decade old so i'm not sure i'd call the game poorly optimized, but it handles other new games that look just as good if not better than nioh so i wouldn't let them off the hook completely
>>732300532How exactly? You still beat the monsters to death, the monster always spawns in the same couple of rooms so you always know where it is and it's going.What exactly was removed to appeal to the casuals, I'm asking sincerely
Only 49 enemies in the game, which means not all of Nioh 2 enemies are coming back. Goodbye Tesso and Nupeppo.
>>732294649Oh, one more big minus:>lol you can't switch to mid stance whike guarding anymore. Hope you didn't spend two games learning that muscle memory!
Journos and people are saying the game is easy because webm related is how things usually happen when fighting youkai now. Just punching bags who can barely fight back. This is webm is from a high level character with enough stamina to spam combos but it already happens in nioh 3's early game due to how little stamina ninja mode eats to compensate for not having ki pulse and flux. The only ordinary youkai who feels deadly is the new werewolf type youkai but you quickly overlevel it until it barely becomes a threat.
>>732300790>tessodung nigger is back so tesso will bealso we fought his more aggressive cousin in the demo near the castle
>>732300946Tesso hasn’t been confirmed for Nioh 3.
>>732294649>can only equip one weapon (in the demo?)I assume this is demo only because one of the samurai skills references ki pulse after switching weapon. unless they refer to switching to ninja stance as switching weapon but that would be a weird way of describing it>-no equipment appearance change (in the demo?)i thought you could do this at the blacksmith you unlock at the end of the demo but maybe i'm wrong
Has someone made Ryan Gosling yet

>>732300923You can feel this drastic change when first fight an enki by the hot springs. In nioh 2, your first encounter with an enki will filter most newbies and also probably take out some of your healing pots. But his AI in 3 is very anemic by comparison.
>>732296831Yeah, I understand that but some of the weapons are ninja only, which means they got no stances, like the tonfa or the kusarigama or the switchglaives. Which kinda sucks, since I loved the previous movesets for these weapons!
>>732272571the fact that people are calling nioh a soulslike is vomit inducing
Uh oh Nioh is becoming popular. This board isn't allowed to like it anymore
>>732300960kek cursed
>>732300960I've never seen such a young man
Can't fucking wait till Friday, I need it NOW
>>732300653Turn on auto pickup and auto offering
>>732300790So which Yokai are confirmed as NOT returning?
>>732293206>better soulslikes>wont name themPussy ass bitch
>>732287767It's a good start, but you can be waaaay more fluid with that once you put some hours in it.Consider the utility every atk/combo for every weapon and stance, and use what's useful.A basic example: spear can do a trust for poking a single target from afar, can do a big sweep to hit a crowd, and can do a vertical smash to hit demon's horns.Also consider two weapons in a pair how they can fulfill every need: one for humans, one for yokai; or one for fast enemies and one for slow(hammer/axe)And so on.When you get 'bored with a weapon' there is always something new to try
>>732300163The actual biggest brain take.
>>732301501stop sciencing up a cool game, lamewad
>>732301484Probably mostly dlc enemies from 2. A lot of those enemies were just reskins from base game youkai. A bunch of youkai from 1 also never made in 2 like Ogress or Centipede.
>>732300960Kek
>>732301617Bakegani and Nupeppo weren’t reskins.
>>732288365The majority thinks 2 is a better start. I agree with it for a simple, gameplay reason.1 recycles a lot (A LOT) and you can get bored pretty quickly. The basic advice is to play it after 2 and treat it like a sidestory dlc.
>>732276581So now you want pronouns?
>>732293206>Bland, functional gameplayThis is pretty retarded. The gameplay is pretty much just combat, which is really good, if a little easy (though I did die a few times to the one Bloodedge Demon and personally I don't mind easier soulslikes anyway, they are usually still challenging enough to keep my attention focused on the game). Everything outside the gameplay is pretty mediocre, just like Nioh 1 from what I remember.

>>732300461Do you know how MH wasall about commitment to attacks and being locked into animations? Yeah you can now spin three times while performing the hardest hitting moves, mid-animation. Even Souls games have more animation lock than Wilds.
>>732272571Should you play nioh 1 and 2 first?
>>732272661>RE demake coded revival of onimusha>mog anythingEnjoy your generic, Edo period 3rd person hack & slash
wtf I thought 2 had denuvo this whole time. brb gonna play that first. i got bored of 1 after like 25 hours though
Yet another reminder that when /v/ has a pissy melty over a game you know that game is good
>>732301803There are no edo period games made in the last decade though. How can that be generic?
Thought the demo ran surprisingly well for me, but after an hour in the open world I got a crash and I can't really turn down the settings that much more
>>732287767Depends on the weapon and if you have elemental attacks. Low stance with weapons like 2kat if you have a lot of elemental damage can be good and it becomes a defensive stance with your improved iframes on dodge. It sort of kills midstance so you can get away with high/low with 2kat.
>>732301678Issue with 1 was that it just kept going on and on. I think I got bored after the Ninja mansion level. 2 is still very long but my Hiddy entertained me long enough to push through to the end. Power of big tits.That said it does suck that I never got to play the Nioh 1 dlcs. The final boss being Tamamo no Mae is so much cooler than fighting Otakemaru for the 3rd time.
>>732301832do you genuinely believe that this ugly, unoptimized, soulless open world with copy + paste enemies and ubisoft village captures is a good game? are you a real person?

>>732301581It's more an approach from a fighting game pov when u wanna learn a new chara
Surely there is going to be at least one populated town right? They can't make every part of the open world just empty dead world and empty levels sections because they didn't bother to populate the area after you beat the proper level right?
>>732302017I dropped 1 midway too. But after I got into 2 and put 100h into it I played it and found it more than fine. I dunno how this is possible beyond "2 is just that much better"
>>732302310Hopefully yeah. I wont expect shit like kaifeng from where winds meet, but maybe a small village with some folks that you take quests to clear bandits and youkai from. That said... I really miss the mission intros from a Nioh 1 and 2. I love how the games had this air of horror reminiscent of old ps2 games where they introduce a level with a quote or excerpt mentioning that the level you are going in is fucking haunted and that you have to be careful. This is probably going to be the one thing I am going to miss a lot in 3.
>>732302365I genuinely think that Yokai cores had a lot to do with it. The progression in nioh 2 was really good. You were always getting new shit to test and play with. Where as in 1 you just mastered the few weapons you liked, used sloth talisman and living weapon throughout the entire game and you reach this peak maybe not even half way into the game.
>>732272571Down a little now, the PC version is the series' lowest by two or three points for what it's worth (not that there's any functional difference between an 8.3 and an 8.5)
>>732302881IT'S OVER
>>732302881sell sell sell
>>732302881what does Wo Long and Rise of the Ronin metacritic looks like? I love both games and was just wondering.
>>732303081Wo Long is 80 on ps5 and 79 on pc. Rise of Ronin is 76 on ps5 and 73 on pc. It's a wide margin. By comparison, Nioh 2 is 85 on ps4 and 86 on pc.
>>732303235Nioh 2 launched late on PC and came with all the DLC tbf.
>>732303235Damn Ronin is a 10/10 game for me. guess I can just continue dismissing journos opinions.
which edition, normal too expensive or with season pass too expensive?
>>732303835I just got the normal version. Best case scenario, the season pass comes out to be cheaper without all the digital deluxe content added like Stranger of Paradise and I assume you can grab the infernal weapons off revenants anyway. If not, there will probably be a mod.
I'm not falling for it a third time. Best-in-class combat can't make up for how aggressively dull every other aspect of this series is. Burned out on 1 and 2's constantly reused levels and enemies long before finishing either.
>Open-world maps shamelessly aping Elden RingWhyyyyyThe more linear, mission based structure is one of the things that really distinguished Nioh as a Soulslike
How do I fix that stupid slow-motion FPS related bug? It was in Rise of the Ronin too and they never fixed it, where your game runs at a smooth framerate but everything is slowed down to like half speed. I managed to avoid it by capping the FPS to 60 but I want to play unlocked.
>>732305151Check the dynamic fps option in the second page
I don't want to get my hopes up again but every sequel seems to be turning into a dumbed down moviegame>Dragon's Dogma II: moviegame>Kingdom Come 2: moviegame>Code Vein 2: denuvo>Silksong: unplayable troll gameI don't know anons, I can't do this anymore. Everything is a fucking letdown post 2020
>>732305474I liked Silksong desu, agree that the others sucked (Code Vein 1 sucked as well btw).
>>732285684>mh mildsdisgusting
>>732305474KCD and Code Vein 1 were already badDD1 was always a diamond in the rough and we hyped ourselves up for 2 way too muchSilksong is still fun
I didn't like the first one because the combat has no weight, unlike souls games.
>>732304916the open world seems a lot tighter and more focused than Elden Ring's. More like a bunch of Nioh side missions stapled together, with the main mission at the end.
>>732305151Turn on the fucking dynamic fps option. And clearly you can't get much more than 60fps if you were slowing down.and this engine is so bad that anything in between 60 and 120 is meaningless because of the camera tick rate issue, so just stay at 60, and if you have gpu headroom turn on framegen to get a locked 120fps (especially on nvidia gpus, where I can personally confirm that reflex is turned on properly regardless of the fg option you use so there's no extra latency) It sucks that as glowing as the reviews are, which are a probably deserved, nobody is talking about the performances on pc because every shill reviewers are rocking 200 cores CPUs for their fake work. But at the same time if you got the settings dialed and the hardware to sustain them, this game runs much better than games like Wuchang or Lord of the Fallen or even Elden Ring, too.
>>732306394Retarded. What do you even mean by weight. You can be as heavy and slow or as fast and nimble as you want, it depend on equip load and the weapons. There's fast weapons in dark soul too.
>>732272571>less than 90ioh nioh nioh nioh how do we cope bros
>>732306345>DD1 was always a diamond in the rough and we hyped ourselves up for 2 way too muchholy fuck this is the first correct opinion i've seen on DD2 on this site>SIXTEEN VOCATIONS, NO, THIRTY-TWO VOCATIONS>THERE'S GONNA BE AN INFINITE TOWER AND WE'RE GONNA GO TO THE MOON
>>732306813to be there was/is a tower and it was going to be in the multiplayer portion of the game but it bombed so hard they scrapped everything for it
>>732305474I like how you complain that sequels are dumbed down then critique SS for being too hardcore
>>732306813I wonder how they got DD1 so right, but DD2 so wrong...
>>732306813There was nothing wrong with expecting more vocations. Also Itsuno played into the hype by making grand claims about the game..
>>732307198there's nothing wrong with expecting more vocations but sixteen, let alone thirty-fucking-two mechanically distinct classes in an action rpg isn't just setting yourself up for disappointment, it's texting it in the middle of the night >heyyyyy babe, come over my parents aren't home ;)
>>732272571why would you play let alone pay for not 1 not 2 but 3 identical games?
>>732307684they're good
As someone that hated the mission structure of Nioh 1 and 2, I am glad Nioh 3 is taking that away massively :)(there's still some side quests in the game so idk why people are complaining)
>>732307850Because afaik, you probably can't replay missions. Is there ever an open world game that lets you replay missions outside of going to NG+?
>>732308042You can replay missions
>>732307809>kill generic enemies>gearing is boring>just another soulslike at its coreyeah no, its samey slop to what already exists
>>732306625What I mean is that there is no reaction by enemies getting hit. It just didn't feel good.
>>732308130Where though? The hub lets you replay cutscenes only I think.
>>732308215Select "battle scrolls" from any shrine
>>732304208according to the TN website, there is no way to get the infernal weapons or charms if you didn't buy it, other than a mod of course. I assume that eventually there will be a complete edition or something similar anyway, hopefully with an upgrade for ppl already owning the game. kind of scummy, will get the "cheaper" option and hope for the best, looks-wise the infernal weapons are 2edgy4me anyway
>>732274145As it should
I thought it came out on the 5th, not the 6thI want to play already...
>>732308148Yes we get it, you prefer sucking on a different flavour of dick
>>732284828I fear you may have undiagnosed autism since you fail to understand hyperbole in social contexts.
>>732308637it comes out on the 5th if you live in the Western Hemisphere
