>>732290843Alright we see the girl now give us the code
>>732290908Thread immediately truked and FPBPed
I'm playing through Nioh 2 atm and it's making me want to try Nioh 3, because while I love Nioh 2, I have wrung almost everything from it after 1500 hours. There's still some endgame content I could do, so maybe I'll do that before seriously looking at Nioh 3. I guess I'll miss out on the launch community fun.
>>732290908retard
ZAMN GRANDMA LOOKED LIKE THAT?!
>>732291204Just keep playing 2. 3 doesnt add enough good new stuff to justify the insane price tag.
>>732291204>I guess I'll miss out on the launch community fun.Join anons playing at launch and THEN return to Nioh2 later while waiting for more N3 DLC! N2 isn't going anywhere, and this will be a unique experience

>>732291204yeah look finishing every single floor in Nioh 2 is going to feel completely pointless when you finally play Nioh 3 and get excited about the new builds and systems, ultimately I think it's very pointless now if you didn't finish after all these years and 1.5k hours
Uh oh the blue haired feminist melty
If I have the demo installed and buy the game, does that mean I have to download less or is the demo actually 80gb
>>732292023don't forget all the sexy yokai that join his harem after he defeats them>>732292064>is that... an attractive woman? AAAAAIIIIEEEEE FINK-SAMA SAVE MEEEEE!!!! lmaoing at your tranny life

>>732290843The open field gets a lot better once you reach the castle town and even more once you unlock the dash. It really is Nioh levels stitched together. I take back my earlier complaints of it being a typical open world, but it really doesn't put its best foot forward with those first couple districts. What were thinking?
Uh oh the tranny is having a melty
>>732290843Post the code already.
>>732290908fpbp.Fuck Nioh 3 shills, I'd rather replay Nioh 1 and Nioh 2 than to touch this casualized open-zone slop that is Nioh 3.
I am extremely disappointed in Nioh 3. It's a huge mess. Everything with jumping is half baked. The UI is a mess. The screen is a mess, filled with BS and too many effects. The gameplay has tracking and hitbox problems that are more transparent now that it's a Deflect/Dodge slop game. By that I mean that enemies are generally not allowed to miss unless you do one of those two actions. It becomes annoyingly restrictive and therefore boring. I don't feel free to do what I want despite them claiming "play your way."I've seen too many enemies blink 180 degrees to make sure their combo is tracking. The first real boss does this a lot. Which means there is no sense of momentum, they can do what they want when they want.Ninja mode was a mistake. The arts meter was a mistake. They had to gimp the player from past Niohs to give those attributes purpose. It's a lateral change AT BEST. Ninja mode is so easy the player doesn't have to engage with the ki management mechanics anymore.Less customization is available now that they forced only certain attacks to have elemental version instead of All of Them. And I hate that they separated weapons. They gatekept power progress to give the annoying and boring to traverse open world some purpose.It's so bad at the beginning that Axe has become the best weapon. It's super strong and you don't have to even invest in it. I have many skill points I don't even want to use because it forces you to commit to a weapon early and previously you were rewarded for merely using the things which worked better for a diablo loot game.Splitstaff looks awful. In their attempt to make it Ninja only, they sped up animations and it just looks bad.
Tested both Tile Shaker and Spiked Wall on hatchets and both work on yokai. Spiked Wall was never a parry in 2 but instead just a specific move you did after guarding. It now works more like a timed parry and you can just use it as a normal attack as well. I don't remember if Tile Shaker worked on yokai in 2 since the timing was so tight that I hardly ever used it but it definitely works on them in 3. It's a lot easier to land now and hits harder than Spiked Wall while also getting you behind human enemies. The follow-up attack is a little slower than Spiked Wall though. Both are good and give the weapon some more defensive options other than just dodging.

>>732292794Thug aimThug aimThug aimI don't get it
>>732292794i lost :(
>>732291204>>7322920781.5k is a bit much, but I found returning to Nioh 1 was a huge breath of fresh air after 2. Just because they recycle some weapons and enemies doesn't mean the balance, level design, strategies, and build customization aren't totally different. It's not unlike older entries in other action game series or legacy formats in card games.
>>732290908/thread
>>732290843Kill yourself, you emasculated faggot.
Uh oh melty
Demo runs slightly better than I expected from all the complaints. Still pretty retarded that I get half the fps compared to nioh 2 when the games look nearly identical. Is there no more stance switching, just samurai and ninja mode?
Posting this again for Nioh 3 demoFor anyone having high CPU usage and high temps just disable turbo. There is 0 performance loss. I have tested this on a 9600X and I've dropped from 85C to 49-51C.run this in powershell admin:powercfg -attributes SUB_PROCESSOR be337238-0d82-4146-a960-4f3749d470c7 -ATTRIBUTES_HIDE (if this returns invalid parameter then use the one below)powercfg -attributes SUB_PROCESSOR be337238-0d82-4146-a960-4f3749d470c7 -ATTRIB_HIDE(These commands when run correctly will not return anything. It'll just unhide a setting in the power plan menu.)Go to "Edit Power Plan", then "Change advanced power settings" and under "Processor Power Management" set "Processor performance boost mode" to Disabled. You can just re-enable it when you require or you could set this on a different power plan so that you dont have to keep editing this setting, rather just change the power plan when you do want cpu boost.On Linux just use:echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boostthis will disable boosting until restart. You can create a systemd service to do this on boot if you'd prefer. You can re-enable it by changing the 0 to a 1 and running the command again.
>>732291723>insane price tag>it's sub 60€ on amazon sometimes Im starkly reminded of how many zoomer poorfags and literal men-children populates nu/v/... go fuck yourself and get a job ngrfgt
>>732293753this retard is browsing on AMAZON for games lmfao
>>732293884why are you opening your blowjob hole steamtard? lube up and go pay that extra 20€/$ for Gabe's new yacht kek
>>732293701Very funny, now tell me how to turn my computer back on
the tit bounce at 30 fps is kinda crazy tho ngl almost makes me wanna lock it at 30 for that
Is there any point in getting Nioh 3 now?
>>732294231too bad 30 fps makes my eyes bleed because that's pretty nice
>>732294297Not for you, no.
when should i be using samurai and ninja?
>>732293448That's the cost of dynamic lighting and global illumination. It has stances, but they insist on ninja so you have to unlock them.
>>732294231Fuark... modders pls
>>732294446Anytime. Treat it as you would Astral Chain
>>732294446just perma ninja if you want OP braindead easy mode samurai faggots will be like "muh flux combos!" but backstab, perma dodges and ninjutsu are unrivalled.
>>732294642>Fuarkhang yourself
>>732294710but i love to flux, you can't do that in ninja??i wanna FLUUUUXXX>>732294657astral chain?
>>732294446At the start you need samurai for yokai realms, but then ninja gets a skill for that. Deflect is still more rewarding than perfect dodges though. It seems like it's mostly about abusing the builders/spenders for optimal damage.
>>732294835>Deflect is still more rewarding than perfect dodgeI don't know about that.
>>732294835>At the start you need samurai for yokai realmsor you can... move 2m out of the dark zone kek
>>732294787Switch game. Over time you learn to seamlessly switch back and forth between Legions for combofag opportunities
>>732294835>abusing the builders/spenders for optimal damagecan you explain this with examples..
>>732294231Damn that's pretty nice. Shame about 30fps
>>732294909Deflect refills your stamina and massively fills your martial arts gauge, and martial arts is how you're gonna be breaking Nioh 3.
make a new thread...onegai...
>>732294642>Fuarkindulge yourself
>>732290843give code so i can make her brown
>>732293884let me guess... you fell for the virtual goods meme LMAO
>>732295016Jiggle physics are still present on a higher fps, they just become less prominent up until you exceed 90fps in which the they stop jiggling altogether.
>>732295056samefag
>>732295185>2026>Japs still can't code
>>732295029Evade restores ki too and repositioning for backstab damage allows for more consistent output.
>>732295185I'm aware. Again, shame. I'm on 120fps so it's non-existent for me.
>>732290843TN makes the worst open world of all time
>>732295193>anon cannot comprehend the act of goodsomebody save this niggas soul..
>>732295396How can it be worse than what FS did with Elden Ring?
>>732295396If I bring up a certain game, you're probably gonna get stunlocked
>>732294910>enemy camps in portal>out of your range, attacking will position you into the portal>fully restores its ki while you're being a passive faggotOr you can learn how to play the game.>>732294958It's a prediction. I don't know Nioh 3's balance well enough yet and it'll likely depend on proper builds to come online. As for the terms, they refer to a common ARPG design element, you can look it up easily. Soul shield and parry in SoP are a more elegant example.
>>732295494elden ring actually feels like you can go places. nioh 3 feels like someone's unity map with a checklist
>>732295396Nigga Zelda BotW/TikTok world is literally an empty open field with 3 minute shrines made for braindead low iq zoomers with no attention spam.
Cestus feel great in 3. I've been combo'ing into the launcher+dive kick after reckless charge a lot and also have been doing a combo that's something like high stance heavy, battering ram, quick attack, then fists of reckoning. Starting an arts proficiency combo with Beyond Infinity is cool too since you can negate it's high ki cost. I kind of wish Limitless had a speedy variant that reduced it's damage but greatly reduced it's charge time.
>>732295816I know, isn't it astonishing TN managed to make an open world worse than that? I'd rather be collecting korok seeds than ferret balls and kodamas. At least the former isn't marked all over the map, eliminating the point of exploration.
>>732295654>Or you can learn how to play the game.evil dispelling (remove yokai realm on dodge) is litterally sold by the first merchant you meet, maybe (YOU) should learn to play the game kek
so, footchads, what are we thinkin? i hope we get some barefoot armor, iirc one of the female npcs has one
>>732290843Isn't it really immersive breaking to be playing a woman when you're supposed to be the Shogun?
>>732295935Does Starfield have a better open world in your opinion?
>>732294231>>732295185This why they want you at low fps...
>>732295937I mentioned that in my first post, retard.
>>732295764>feels like>feels likeI guess I can't disprove what you feel like but it's a low barrier to feel more like you can go places than Nioh 3 where there are multiple zones instead of one.
>>732295935Bait used to be believable
>>732294476I'm gonna be honest, ninja seems dogshit. The only reason to ever use it is to charge stuff for the other stance. I guess that's how they forced it. "Insist upon" indeed.
>>732293753>get a jobI'll pass on that you fucking subhuman cattle
YOUGive me your ninja weapon tier and explain why your weapfu is at the top.
>>732296018I wouldn't know. I haven't played a bethesda game since skyrim because it was such a huge disappointment.>>732296069not an argument
>>732295396>TN makes the worst open world of all timethey didnt even make an open world, faggot... everything is instanced or missions, even the big ass starting zone
>>732290843why the fuck did they have to ruin it with the samurai/ninja modes
What is this and how can i activate it?
>>732296017This. I can stomach gods and demons and immortality and time travel without breaking immersion but a woman as shogun? Fuck outta here
I never played rise of the ronin, how does that run on PC? better or the same?
>>732296289That's your Saiyan mode and you activate it by pressing circle + triangle
>>732296304slightly better but still like dogshit
>>732296158>PajNEET calling out "subhumans"post hand
>>732295954wo long had a couple good ones
>>732296302Gods, demons and immortality is part of the setting. Just because there are fantastical elements doesn't mean all logic and realism has to go.
>>732296367like will my CPU max out while moving between zones and freeze the whole game for a full second? If not, I might just play that instead and wait for a sale
>>732296304>runIt doesn't.
>>732296304Better than it did on release.
>>732296440they fixed it, i used to get slowmos on launch when going into cities but not anymoreyou can probably keep constant 60 if you have a mid range pc
>>732296527Cool. Thanks for the answer. I'll play that until nioh has gotten some updates
>You can make 2 whole ass different characters for Samurai / Ninja styles... I'm going to make my ninja a cute japanese girl and my samurai a big burly negroid just to spite Ubislop KEK
It's disappointing that the character creator isn't better than Ronin's. I had to use two slots to make the damn nose swipe face paint when in Nioh 2 it only took one and it would go the ears. You can't stretch the white flower paint to make bandages anymore either.
>>732290843Did they make 1kat TOO strong? It has a tool for everything, does great damage and has solid ki control and it's fast and safe. Did Severing Spin really need a deflect attached? Should Night Rain really be this spammable?
>>732296657Am I the only one who thinks TNs character creator has just been getting worse every single game since they introduced it in Nioh 2?
>>732296652>IM GONNA PLAY AS A WOMAN AND NIGGER TO SPITE WOKE GAMESwut
>watch fextralife review>immediately spoils the time traveling plotFucking NIGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER
>>732296440My CPU is good enough to get 60fps in Nioh 3 but in RoTR my FPS would drop to 40-45 when traversing fast. The world being more open will hit your performance hard situationally.
>>732296659All weapons are good but honestly, 1kat needed a bit of a rework at this point because it started lagging behind other weapons back in 2. All changes are sensible, severing spin was fucking terrible and people only used it for style points.
>>732296436I agree. An immortal time- traveling being who slays gods could simply never be a woman because reasons
>>732296767that shit is shown in the first 19 minutes of gameplay dogalso fextralife is trash garbage
>>732296767>fextralifeWhy?
>Demon Thrust is much better>Raijin is massively improved and powerful>Mortal Flow and Windstorm are still trashkek, why do they hate these fucking moves?
Please make it happen for 2kat, TN. Both styles.
>>732296767100% deserved for watching fucking fextralife faggot
>>7322966591kat has always been the most reliable option. But it's boring. It's the equivalent of maining Goku in a Dragon Ball game.
I really wish they would've made it so you can see player characters out in the world in Nioh 3. To either fight them or rescue them from enemy bases
>>732296735It's unfortunately true. I don't know why they keep making it worse.
how long before tiddy mods in Nioh 3
>>732296735I agree too. I was able to make a decently accurate version of myself in 2 but none of their later games. I feel like the character codes are always of higher quality for 2 also.
How the fuck are people considering stable-ish 60fps acceptable in 2026? Insane.
>>732297015You mean kinda like in the Way Of The Samurai games? Or do you mean the characters of other players?
Thoughts on this real painting of the man the protagonist is based off of?
>>732297123yeah I think he means like how in Dragons Dogma you walk around and see pawns other people made walking around on the roads
>>732297129he's literally me
>>732297129protagonist?my samurai and my ninja are girls
>>732297129absorute unit
>>732297129At least a Norwood 5
>>732297119you can't even see more than 60 what's your point kek
Might try Nioh 2 while I wait for 3 to get denuvo cracked
so did they remove switchglaives? and fist weapons?gonna be honest from everything I've seen I'm pretty sure Nioh 2 is the definitive Nioh
>>732297213and?
>>732297292What the fuck is denuvo?
>>732297295>so did they remove switchglaives? and fist weapons?no, try actually playing the game fella
>>732296935Windstorm is fine, it's fast and you can more easily weave it into combos now. It also no longer fights for the same input as Water Sword so you can have both set. Both it and Mortal Flow are good at destroying horns at least but Mortal Flow still has annoyingly long recovery so moves don't combo smoothly after it during arts proficiency. They need to give Mortal Flow a follow-up attack that either is an extra input or maybe automatically activates if it depletes remaining enemy ki. Another idea could be to make it charge-able to increase the range of the thrust and damage of both moves.
>>732297295>so did they remove switchglaives? and fist weapons?no you unlock them after the first yokai boss
>>732297335DRM software that usually takes a few months before it's cracked and can be pirated
>>732295252Restoring a giant chunk of ki as a glorified option select where the worst out come is that you fail to deflect and simply do a normal block while ignoring the entire dynamic of positioning and doing a metric shit ton of damage is better than Ninja. Nioh is more of an RPG than it is an action game, as it turns out. And RPG > action in terms of effectiveness.
>>732297129how easy is it to make this in the cc/is it already a preset?
>>732297292Nioh 2 is my favorite team ninja game ever. The looting is a bit tedious for a lot of the first playthrough but it's a fucking great game. stupid long too
Why can't I rebind picking up items off of R1
>>732297385>samurai fag who didnt even try ninjawhy would need to deflect when you can dodge all day due to superior ki regen and get behind anything for ez 200% damage? ninja shits on samurai all day
>>732297292nioh 3 doesn't have denuvo
>>732297538Lol who cares just turn on autoloot and sort things out later
Did they improve the performance from the beta?
Wait why is everyone talking like it has Denuvo?There's no indication it has Denuvo.>>732297335>>732297384DRM never gets cracked in 2025+, there is literally no one on the scene who can crack it or is willing to. If a game has Denuvo it is not piratable except in rare cases (usually having to do with some leaked/botched upload on Steam like RE4make, or ironically a Demo version being tinkered with to make the game mostly playable, like Digimon Time Stranger or Metaphor).
>>732297578What the fuck there's an autoloot?
>>732290908Fuck this image made me not like tha game, NOOOOO
>>732297553Ninjas can't even fucking ki pulse to dispel yokai realm.They went from FULL player choice shit in Nioh 2 to fake open world while railroading your gameplay.
>>732297553I cant prove it but I'm convinced Team Ninja put Ninja style instead of a difficulty slider for people who need an easier mode or just want to play like a regular From Souls
>>732297668YeahAuto loot and also auto disassemble/selling with conditional optionsYou can really just automate literally everything at least for this NG cycle which I'm gonna do
>>732297129>closes the country>crucifies christiansbased beyond belief do we get to see any of this?Does he fight Maria too and decides "fuck these catholic hos" and then fistbumps his grandad's pagan gaijin friend?
>>732297760>Ninjas can't even fucking ki pulse to dispel yokai realm.the first merchant sells you a skill to dispel yokai realm on dodge retard
So when's a good time to fight the Bloodedge Demon? Haven't gone to the castle yet, think I should do that first to get the other stances since I'm just stuck in Mid for now. Haven't gotten the hang of using Samurai and Ninja, Samurai just feels more natural to play since it has all the shit I'd use in 1 and 2 though, not sure why you guys say it's so strong, Mist doesn't even seem to do much outside of just getting some space since you don't stagger.
>>732297639I don't think this game has denuvo but actually denuvo has gotten a bunch of cracks very recently, this is due to the new hypervisor method.
>>732297760They get a skill for that later on. Not the perfect dodge one but a different skill that lets Mist dispel the yokai realm, just like a ki pulse. I don't know if there's any skills that let it restore ki but talons do have a mystic art for that at least.
>Fill martial arts gauge>Hit Kurama Sword Dance to winSimple as
>>732297553Ninja fag who didn't even try Samuraiwhy would need to dodge when you can deflect all day and literally stay exactly where I am for ez critical damage? Samurai shits on Ninja all day

>>732298059>>732298059Why is everyone talking about deflect like it's a given that you're going to deflect everything. Am I bad at video games?
>>732296803>why didn't just Frodo fly a helicopter to Mt. Doom? There are dragons, elves and magic and you think a helicopter is far fetched?
>photo mode is bound to P>it does nothingfucking hell
>>732297961>why would need to dodge when you can deflect all daybecause deflect is not part of the attack strings unlike dodgecheckmate samurai mongo
>>732298186Yes. Usually my first fight against a boss is a wipe just learning all the attack patternsI think deflect is horrid and it trivializes all the bosses when your answer to every dangerous attack is lol get deflected kiddoBut it is fun, and given TN's 20 year heritage of making interesting skills not work against fiends anyway, I guess I'll take it
Speaking as someone who hasn't explored the combat that deeply, samurai seems a lot more straightforward to play. Ninja is strategic whereas samurai is technical, basically.
>>732298186This is your brain on Ninja mode. It's shrimple, really>Fuck ye I deflected now I get all my bonuses>Crap, I didn't deflect! Well, I still blocked anyways thoThere's literally no losing in this scenario.
>>732298269>enter photo mode >zoom into my character>disappears if you get even remotely close
>>732298382but what if you block too late?
>>732297849half the time I forget to use mist but even then it's still a free dodge.I think the mileage varies depending on what weapon.I think it objectively has higher combo damage to balance against the fact there's no ki pulse, it's nimble and very easily does big damage and if you're reliably getting backstab damage it's just easynot to mention every few combos in either mode you're refilling your projectiles. I think once we get built to faceroll everything samurai will outclass it, though.
>>732298186Its a tool, like any tool you use it when appropriate. Fast multi hit attack from a boss? Ninja dodge and counter. Big single fuck you attack? Deflect and punish. The game rewards you switching between samurai and ninja so why not lean into it?
>>732298420But what if you dodge too late
>>732298391Adjust the Field of Vision option
>>732298557Well it's a good thing your dodge has massive movement and iframes so you don't have to live on the edge like that eh?
can someone tell me how the swap between sam/nin works like I'm 10?
>>732298382the downside being deflect is a defensive move and not an agressive option into an attack string like mist (leading to more safety and backstab damage) but you are too samurai-brained to understand that KEK
>>732298629You press da button on da controller and it makes you a ninja and then when you do it again it makes you a samurai :)
>>732290843>the kind of shit weebs play just because they're too racist to try where winds meetGenuinely SAD
>>732298186it's just years of deflectslop giving everyone stockholm syndrome, to the point where they're even making GOTY JRPGs force this dumb deflect shit.finally we have a game where Deflect is good, low committal, and no where close to being mandatory and it's refreshing. I can finally just deflect the attacks I feel like would be right to deflect, or more often than not just guard really good and get free bonuses rather than trying to deflect.
>>732298629>male cat owner joined the chat
You can see Toyo's eyepatch under her mask
>>732298391Don't zoom, you need to adjust field of view.
Are there any new weapon types in this one or is it just same old.
>>732298656dual swords have a counter hit deflect ability
>>732298656Deflect is very much not a defensive move tho. It turns what is typically, in game theory, a losing position (blocking) and turns it into the best winning condition you can have. It's funny because even with a game like Sekiro, *the* "ninja" game, even there, deflecting is waaay better than dodging
I really really really don't want to spend money on this. But this is kind of one of those series I feel like you want the asynchronous online for. The revenant loot system.
>>732298372Left click to kill enemy, spacebar to dodge enemy, same as every other game.
>hair comb clan symbolDo we get to fight Frieza again?
i can't beat the long neck nigger
>>732298923yeah I agree but getting them on sale is usually better. still a big influx of players and you don't have to deal with the launch bugs
>>732298923anon think back to the previous gamesat release revenants are all dropping trash, it's not until months in you'll go through a level in NG and any time you wanna gear every rev has full sets on they got from other revs.but yeah we'll laugh at your lack of samurai spirit not playing the game friday
>>732294446I just switch when I notice the opposite's gauge (arts/ninjutsu) is full.
>>732298921nigger how dense are you... you dont need to defense move shit when every attack string puts you in safe position around/behind the boss. Deflect is inferior to Mist by essence of "killing boss faster = less need to defend". >Sekiro>whole game based on deflect to differentiate from usual rollslop>deflect is better than rollslop??? >aint no way! kek you ARE actually double digits IQ
>>732299004Maybe Yura
I'm a dumb American. The MC for Nioh 3 isn't the Racoon guy from Nioh 1 right? I am confusing clan names I think
>>732298721Weird way of saying Wuchang
I wish they localized this game properly and gave everyone normal names like John and Steve
>we play the guy who hated christians and kicked people out of his countryTime to play as Christian Invader.
tall, strong, tanned, tonfa users.
>>732299301You don't meet the MC for 3 since he's the grandson of Ieyasu and the series timeline before 3 canonically ended shortly after the DLC for 1.
>>7322993014kids was 50 years ago, anon
>>732299398I'm following this games story like I followed Nioh 1 and 2, which means I'm not doing it at all except for remembering pet names of the cute girls. At least every second character hasn't got the same name like Wo Long.
>>732299301Right you are Ken
>>732299546
>>732292023>is friends with the coolest ninja in Japan, HanzoKotaro Fuuma *kills you*
>>732299004it went down like thisImagawa had a guy at this castleHe got caught sending secret messages to Ieyasu, not surprising because Ieyasu used to be hostage under Imagawa before he broke off and joined Oda.Imagawa summoned him and had him assassinatedafter Imagawa bit the big one the whole clan was in disarray and having all its territory eaten up by Tokugawa and this nobody's widow took over the castle as an independent clan.Ieyasu just took it and then made it his main spot for like 17 yearsbut Nioh kind of romanticizes and changes things so in this side mission they more play it off like she was an Imagawa holdout who saw Ieyasu as a traitor.
>>732299450.... why did you give your waifu dreads?>>732299076okay, jesus christ, I'll fucking pirate it, you don't have to twist my arm
>>732299434Based. We will educate the heathens about Christ. Amen.
>>732299543I accept that I'm retarded but everyone is name Oda Nobi Nobi and I just don't know what the fuck is happening. Some guy shows up to fight and I literally don't know if it's a big betrayal moment or not just point me in the right direction and I'll kill
Advise me on this.I finished Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty on Game Pass then bought it on Steam, but the saves aren't compatible. I want to play the DLC but going through most of the game again is going to be a pain. But I also bought Rise Of The Ronin. Should I just give up on Wo Long and play Ronin instead?
>>732292210>don't forget all the sexy yokai that join his harem after he defeats themThat's Hide not Wirriam, retard
>>732299575hashire hashire....
>>732298871Look it up
>>732299635I definitely preferred rotr combat over wo long gay bowser
>>732297639>Wait why is everyone talking like it has Denuvo?Look at the publisher's other releases
>>732295396Retard nigger
>>732298921>"deflect is totally not a defensive move bro!" >"see, you use it as an improved block... and in game theory blocking is a defensive loser move...">"but deflect is an aggressive move, trust!" holy kekin game theory, (You) are known as a "bad faith retard"
>>732299635just get a 100% save file
>>732298391I wouldnt worry about it
>>732296304I can play it and the map load well enough, so much better than Nioh 3
>>732296216There are other Ninja weapons besides Tonfa, but no one really knows why they exist when Tonfa does everything.
>>732299229>>732299896A retard who thinks he's smart is a truly frightening creature.
>>732299587>and this nobody's widow took over the castle as an independent clanWere women daimyos allowed back then?
>>732290908Nioh 3 is shit. A complete dud. Will it be a wake up call to Fromsloppers? Doubt it.
>>732300125No. Women were for making political ties. Atleast for nobles that is. A woman born in a reputable household's only purpose is to marry a man of an equal or superior clan and bear his child. They were never in any positions of actual leadership.
>>732297805You forgot the part about him being the biggest faggot in the country
>>732297805>and then fistbumps his grandad's pagan gaijin friendHe expelled Wirriam descendants, retard
>>732299872koei tecmo almost never uses denuvo, what are you talking about? i can only think of like 3 games that used it since like 2019 and 2 of those were atlus and ea that slap it on everything
>>732300504Based, racemixers must be banished, with a deportation to Haiti for those having relationships with melanized ones.
>>732300656I said publisher not developer
>>732299301Can't you read, you stupid motherfucker?
>>732300716and so what company are you referring to then?
>>732300832Bandai Namco
>>732297015That wouldn't work because the nioh open world is just a lifeless wasteland instead of an actual open world with people.
>>732300861>is just a lifeless wasteland instead of an actual open world with people.The countryside filled with violent demons is lifeless? Holy frickers
>>7323000461. Deflect is only useful if the enemy attacks2. Deflect is a defensive move thanks for coming to my TED talk, retard.
>>732298851Why does she wear the mask though?
>>732300859the game is not published by bandai namco
>>732301137I never said it was?
>>732300861uhh just make the revenants walk around like haunting ghosts
>>732300125Imagawa mom was know as the woman daimyo, but no
>>732301125coz she dead, son
>>732301125Because she's a spirit who lost most of her memories.
>beat everything in the demo>tweak the cc until my guy is perfect>mfw have to wait for the weekend to play the full game
>>7323010581. Deflect is used to keep up your offense 2. Deflect is an offensive moveThanks for coming to my TED talk, retard.
>>732301153so then why are you talking about bandai namco if you know they didnt publish or develop the game?
>>732301204>"no no no, water is actually fire!"
>>732301287I don't even know why you're still arguing with me since it sounds like we don't actually disagree about anything
>>732300859Bamco has nothing to do with KT. They're competitors.
How can someone have problems remembering a japanese name? The only names I have problems remembering are koreans, because they're stupid fucking names
Has anyone with a early copy said if there are more skills than what we saw in the demo? There's no way they made crucible skills a thing and then made ALL of them available in the first one
>>732296216the 1kat is just 4 different *teleports behind you* heh nothing personal moves and I don't see why Ninja needs literally anything else.
>>732296216Shuriken all the way
>>732301392More than likely different crucible skills are dropped from different crucibles, or weighted to different ones.
>>732301383Dongwoo Suk-nob.........
>>732301378someone asked why people think nioh 3 will have denuvo, you said look at the publisher (koei tecmo), i said they never use denuvo, you said "I said publisher not developer" which makes no sense because the developer is team ninja, then you bring up bandai namco which have nothing to do with the game and basically youre fucking retarded
>>732301313Tell me, anon. How would you feel if you didn't have breakfast this morning?
>Nioh 3 ends with a Spanish armada led by Maria on it's way to Japan.Kino?
>>732301546not all those posts were mine
>>732301579yep, I finally like my character
>>732301579True kino would be full alt history where Japan becomes the world power through the use of spirit stones and yokai
>>732301397yeah I did Spear / Kusaragi in Nioh 1, Dual Swords / Odachi in Nioh 2 because I could never mesh with the 1kat so I decided to try it and oh boy! full ninja 1kat was so fucking easy mode in the demo I might just do that for the whole game
reminder that if you play as a male character, that means you are a fucking homosexual
>>732290843Only played the first mission of the demo so far but I'm not liking the Samurai/Ninja split.
>>732301604well the guy that thinks this is a bandai namco game is the retard then, carry on
i just hope the shinsengumi are as cool as they were in rotr
>>732301758thanks anon I hope the rest of your day goes better
>>732301717Takes one to know one
>>732301793
>>732301565tell me anon, how much dps increase do you get against an immobile training dummy when you add 1 Deflect into a full quick attack string? kek
>>732301786If the Shinsengumi are in they're gonna suck off pic related so hard.
can i get jelly guardian in 3?
>>732302046they even put 2B in nioh
>>732302004They're in since Soji appears in some trailers, however much like in ROTR, they're not going to be wearing a color accurate haori as you can see in pic related. It's black and red rather than blue and white.
Do you still become a demon or are we back to living weapon?
>>732301383I'll have you know Hoo Fwung-Dung was an important prestigious noble with political and economic ties to India
>>732302004as they should, hope they put this moment too
>>732301786>>732302004Shinsengumi were founded in 1863, there is 0 chance of them being in Nioh 3.
>>732302339Do we tell him?
>>732298963I'm talking about optimization, nitwit.
>>732302339we've known since they revealed nioh 3 that we're gonna time travel through 3 different eras
>>732302250You fuse with guardian spirits this time around to turn into some kind of power ranger/super sentai/kamen rider
>>732302250You become the Common Rider
>living artifactyou didnt beat the game thovghie
There are poors ITT right now shitposting instead of getting a job who don't have PCs ready to play this game. I just dropped $700 on a whim for a 5070 because my wife wants to play on release with me now.>you overpaidI know but since I have a job I don't care
>>732302339https://www.reddit.com/r/Nioh/comments/1phrk5d/nioh_official_okita_soji_pv/
>>732299301Well, you're wrong!
>>732302004apparently he's the final boss for the Bakumatsu era mapUnless you beat him in an earlier sidequest, then it's someone else. The anon didn't say who replaced him but I doubt it will be Toshi, they gotta save him for Ezo DLC
>>732302481I have a job, but you know what else I have that a virgin like you wouldn't have? child support payments
>>732302339>He doesn't know.
>>732302551>a virginkek I just pull out bro, been together a decade now
>>732302481>because my wife wants to play on release with me nowI could tell this game would going to be popular with women
You did complete the demo, right?
>>732302483mann I really hope we can get unique moves from him, I was using his stance a lot with katana since it had hand to hand moves
>>732301313I mean, you do have to have knowledge of the study hopeless in the fire of water.
>actually really good Nioh 2 players are saying the game actually feels harder than the previous games>mention overpowered human ennemiesFucking yes, let's go
>>732302483Yjk he's going to have the most busted guardian spirit.
>>732302580I did. Nothing else to do, so I moved onto getting crucible skills. Only have samurai left.
>>732302423Wicked
>>732290908trvke
>>732301717Playing as a broad makes you gay everyone knows that.
>>732291204i literally could not be more excited for nioh 3 after putting 800 hours into nioh 2, i preordered the game after i finished the demo even thought my performance isnt super highi cannot understand not wanting to play nioh 3 unless you fell for the literal 50iq bandwagon tier baits like >"the open world ruined it"or >"they casualized it"or whatever literal homonculus tier criticism the knuckledraggers are spamming in every thread>b-b-b-but...>muh side character outfit that shows up in .01 hours in a game i'm going to put 150 hours into just to get to end game and finally start grinding my god set that'll take me another 300 hoursyou can MOD HER ASS OUT i fucking GUARANTEE ITanyone who's actually whining about this has to be fucking 10 years old and has no understanding of computer electronics
>>732302642Nioh 2 Feral/Phantom burst cancel out of anything made the game unbelievably safe to overcommit in and you can't do that as aggressively here.
>>732301925>My apologies, anon, but I am unable to consider the implications of a mechanic's effects on a game holistically, and I only ever see them as completely separate from the game as it is actually played.
>>732294446Samurai is the baseline, the one you should be using by default. While Ninja is the one you change to once you start craving cock.
>>732302642I would much rather overpowered human enemies that you can fully interact with with all the unlockable skill moves than overpowered yokais with their unstaggerable infinite ki that cannot be interacted with by any of the game's special moves at all.
>>732290843>they cut TessoOut of ALL the enemies that i expected for them to cut, Tesso was at the fucking bottom, why even do such a thing?
>>732294657Astral chain was so fucking good.
>>732302938Why would they even cut enemies? No reason for Nioh 3 to not have every yokai that exists.
>>732297129I failed to recreate him, it seems.
>>732297129>fatWhy? how?
>>732302985I have no clue, but they are now 2 for 2 on cutting like 1 or 2 enemies for zero reason.Nioh2 cut the stone soldiers and kitsune, bringing the latter back in the dlc, so maybe Tesso comes back too.
>item limit increased to 2000 oh boy
>>732302938>>they cut Tessowhat makes you assume that? also, ngl, i don't really give a shit about tesso. disgusting, pointless joke enemy with a dogshit soul core ability
>>732290908Ueda tried to show us the lightWe have failed him
>>732295764no open world will ever eclipse how horrendous and era defining elden ring's slop isit is the categorical definition of low effort garbagethe entire open world is full of >nothing>a massive amount of nothing>simply brimming with nothing>unironic 30 minute intervals where you are JUST FUCKING RIDING and doing NOTHING ELSEand on the off chance you DO encounter something it is always>recycled content>crafting materials>low level talisman/weapon/spellit is shocking how many bosses in that game give "rewards" that amount to "you piss 5% harder" or another spell that moves slow as shit, costs a thousand mana and does exactly zero fucking damagenioh 3's open world is better purely on the basis that it isnt fuckin ONE HUNDREDHOURSof doing NOTHING but fucking WALKING
>>732302642I always avoid Kintoki in underworld.
>$70usdNot like this.
>>732302985I doubt they'd be permanently cut, rather they'd be used to fill out the DLCs
>>732303083what's the dude who owns all the rice in japan SUPPOSED to look like?
>level 69might stop it there for the demo.
I have 15 hours of the demo just replaying missions over and over while grinding crucible weapon skill unlocks. The full game cannot come out soon enough.
apparently there's underground cave systems the size of regions
>>732303406Imagine>start the full game>it loads from when you beat the crucible boss the first time
can I make my samurai lady wear a hime cut
>>732303406I had to stop yesterday at level 38. I'll drop that down when the game comes out to like 20 or so.
>>732303398What's the purpose of overleving the content? Are you retarded?
>>732302840low-iq nigger, I'm not arguing about the value of Deflect as a mechanic, I'm arguing against your utterly retarded view that Deflect is an offensive move instead of a defensive move kekaroothe fact you dont even understand what the argument is about is fascinating ngl
>>732303530to be fair what's the harmany gains he got are gonna be completely outscaled in NG+ from the amount of amrita required to the amount of amrita he's gonna get he's probably not gonna level up much playing the actual game.
>>732303503didn't you see the OP?
>>732303530Overleveling is barely going to improve your survivability, gear is where your actual attack and defense power lies
way of the demon if gonna be fucking nasty
Anybody getting any really bad loading issues on the pc version? As in, the game taking a long time to load objects and enemies on the field when running around and the map taking 10+ seconds to load.Ryzen 9 9900x 12-core CPU, Raedon 9070 XT with 16 GBs VRAM. Demo is on a NVME which has 100% health. Windows 11. Re-installing shaders hasn't helped.Looking to find any possible fixes. Already been having trouble getting the game to run at 1080p60.
>>732303503nah dude nothing for hime cut whores, move along
the open world structure of the game completely ruins replayability, you're basically following minimap icons, checklist style design, once you're done what's the point of starting another playthorugh? Mission based with difficulty modifiers will always be superior for replay value. People are saying that it took them around 90 hours to 100%, which is dissapointing. Every single fag here will play through nioh 3 once, then go back to nioh 2.
>>732303693>>732303745sorry I had a rough day todaythanks
>>732303220My youtube guy said so, i enjoy his videos and he beat the game in 60 hours and didnt find Tesso in any of the 3 regions
>>732302791Anon the people who aren't excited can't afford the game and/or hardware to play it on, nobody has attempted to offer up serious criticism of the gameplay. It is reasonable to be upset that the game runs as poorly and demands as powerful of hardware as it does, but that's just how TN rolls.
>>732302580I killed him around level 8, he dropped only useless yellow and blue shit... is he supposed to get better loot if you kill more revenants or something?
>>732297959I'm an odachichad but the love they gave 1kat this time (it took until the end of the 2 dlc for them to unfuck it) is making me think about switching
How am I supposed to time the spirit burst? Explain it to me with Yokai Burst examples. Like am I supposed to use it like an attack like Red Yokai, or a full counter like Purple?
2 more sleeps....
>>732303732Odd. I'm on a 3070, 32GB Ram, and an R5 3600. Fame installed on an SSD no issues loading enemies and such, but loading screens are slow as fuck and revenants can take a bit to load in sometimes.Wonder if putting it on my NVMe will help.But, I did have to use frame generation because it ran like shit.
>>732303792>and didnt find Tesso in any of the 3 regionsmeh, good riddance
>>732303747Because you can just linearly path through the open world like a level when you are doing ng+. I don't believe you didn't consider this as possible. So are you offended by every other TN game including Nioh 1 and 2 that have levels with large distances travelled from beginning to end? Because point to point in the open world for missions is not some gargantuan trek
>>732302863>While Ninja is the one you change to once you start craving cock.i know what am i picking
>>732290843Is leveling skills in the OG Nioh different from Nioh 2's system in where damage equals experience for skills? I can't seem to level ninjutsu unless I invest levels into dexterity.
>>732299148I think this is the dev's intention. I just do it for vibes and style because both are viable and nothing in the demo has forced me to optimize meter like that yet.
>>732303747>you're basically following minimap icons, checklist style design and going through the same side mission area alternating backwards and frontways 10 times is better or different how?>People are saying that it took them around 90 hours to 100%, which is dissapointing.sounds like base game Nioh 1 and 2 you dipshit, Way/Dream of the strong weren't exactly content deep either.>once you're done what's the point of starting another playthorugh>then go back to nioh 2you mean the game which is famously the one ARPG that lets you reset everything so you'll never need to start a new save?>Mission based with difficulty modifiers will always be superior for replay value.literally just needs level sync which was a basic feature in 2 and a reset for the map areas.

>>732303902Is the Guardian Spirit burst counter in the demo?
Can you even do the crucible mission without killing enemies title? That one asshole chucks a bomb at the gaki and kills it.
>>732303902from what Ive experienced it needs to be a well-timed parry so definitely not like the Red Yokai bump.
>>732303885They nerfed odachi pretty heavily as well. Bolting boar doesn't work on yokai anymore, forward movement is reduced on a lot of moves, mid stance swings bounce off guards now.
>>732303902in the current state it doesn't have an active portion so you gotta time it like Purple/Blue burst countersswitching has a spot in the Ninja/Samurai skill pages and is on the martial art select screen so maybe there's an alternative switch with an attacking burst?
>>732303902it is the exact same timing as the purpleyou use it as you get hit
>>732304183Not from what I know. I was meaning the spirit burst you get when you switch styles. >>732304234Yeah I got killed by the red guy in the tutorial a couple times thinking I could use it like a Red Yokai backhand or a Blue evasion. Which sucks since I barely used any of the purple Spirits cause I sucked at timing it's burst counter lel.
I don't think I like the ninja mode bros. Feels like they force you to swap to charge stuff up though. What am I missing?
>>732303980yeah I dont know what everyone is sperging about the game doesnt feel like an open world at all!even the biggest zone is like 1/20 of Limgrave and everything is instanced in missions or specific zones.
>>732299639>implying yokai bitches didn't wirriam's BICretard
>>732303970I disagree, yeah he is not amidst my favorites but more is better and i think he was a fun and unique support yokai during group encounters.Never be happy for less.
>>732303605Who the fuck said you were arguing about the value of anything? What the fuck are you talking about? What I am saying is that you cannot conceive of how deflect interacts with the entirety of the game's mechanics. You think "I press the block button therefor it's defensive." What does deflecting actually achieve? It replenishes a giant chunk of stamina, it builds a ton of martial arts gauge, which powers up your heavy attacks and skills, Depending on your gear, it procs effects. Deflect has far less recovery than blocking and even dodging, meaning that the momentum of the fight swings back to your favor instantaneously, allowing you to go on the attack faster than any mechanic the game has to allow you to avoid damage. It's a mechanic used more aggressively than it is defensively. But you can't wrap your mind around that. So, again, how would you feel if you didn't have breakfast this morning, anon?
>>732304110Weapons already had proficiency, but IIRC onmyo and ninjutsu didn't, so yes. You can also consume ninja locks for points though.
>>732303858The more revenants you kill the stronger he gets and the more revenants are around his spawn point, they drop shit when he dies in addition to what he drops. His soul core also kicks all sorts of ass, the element he uses matches the element of your spirit guardian so you can make him work for almost any build.
>>732304038powerful distraction ninjutsu
Can't wait for the grind
the shitposters truly have no idea what to do with this one, do theyjust throwing whatever shit they can out there hoping something will stick
What will they do for Nioh's 10 year anniversary next year?
>>732303406Same, just been enjoying co-op. Nioh has some of the most fun co-op ever.
I still haven't unlocked fists... where are they? It's been 20 hours.
>>732303605If a metaphorical explanation would help, it's like grabbing a bull by the horns. Yes that keeps the bull from impaling you, but that's not why you're doing it.That said, I'm bowing out of this conversation immediately because arguing what option is strongest is meaningless until we get finished builds and real endgame measurements.
>>732304893Forge them at the blacksmith, then they'll start to drop normally
>>732304518maybe I can do better than that guydeflecting is a fundamentally reactive action that you do in response to the enemy attacking. If the enemy didn't attack you then you wouldn't use it at all. An enemy attacks you and it defends against that attack. It's a defensive action. There isn't any other way to describe that.Yes it's a defensive action that augments your offensive momentum upon execution, that's because it's been utilized skillfully in this game. That doesn't make it an offensive action. If you weren't being attacked you'd simply keep rolling your combo never thinking of throwing a stray just guard in the middle of it.... which by the way you can't do. This deflect doesn't fucking cancel your attack animations or something, you consciously have to stop attacking to utilize it and THEN yes, you get rewarded with more attacking uptime in the form of resource generation and buff procs.
>>732304948Oh whoops, I thought since there was no tab, they weren't there but they are there. Thanks.
>>732304547I still don't get the loot part, you mean killing them adds their loot to his loot too so you get extra loot from each rev?
>>732302481>$700 for 5070>$110 for his copy>$110 for hers$920 for Nioh. Damn.
>>732304518according to your retardation, drinking an elixir is an offensive move: after all you dont have stamina, martial arts gauge or cant use you attacks when dead! you are so fucking retarded, plz stop embarassing yourself with schrodinger's breakfast in a conversation about cold hard definitions instead of hypotheticals: saying "water is not fire" doesnt mean I cant think of any situation where water has value lmfao
>>732304437Doesn't matter because Wirriam kill them, retard
>>732304562For anyone who does not know, this is no longer a problem for skill texts, as they do not drop from bosses now. The crucible skills have taken its place, thank fuck.
>>732297015clothing was so fucking good in rotr. it's a shame that it looks like all of samurai style's stuff is just gonna be bulky armors.I really liked my samurai dress up simulator
so where are the femboy codes?
nothin personnel... kid
who /axe/ here
Highly recommend control type B if you like your crucible skills.
>>732305473I'm thinking of doing axe/spear heavy armor again.
I'm kinda gonna miss grinding in Hamamatsu
>>732305473The axe additions are so fucking good i'm probably finally going to make a 1kat/axe playthroughThat jump attack axe throw looks delicious
>>732304179Where can you disable steam overlay? Never use that anyway in single player games
>>732305514Yeah it's probably the best control type. I wish you could input yokai skills this way in nioh 2 too, or fit more skill shortcuts.
>>732305615Right click the game on Steam and click properties, should be under the General tab
Anyone else just fucking hate Chaos?

>>732305123Killing more revenants puts more revenants around his spawn, when he dies all revenant swords nearby will drop at least one piece of their loot. Increasing his level (killing more revenants in the area) makes him stronger and gives him high quality drops (less white and yellow drops and more blue and purple) and gives higher chance for the revenants to drop more than one piece of loot.

nioh 3 is better than 2
>AvatarfaggingThreads like these sucked back when Nioh 2 came out and they certainly have not improved ever since. Sincerely kill yourself.
Fucking hell they really to adjust odachi swing timing properly. All time slow just annoying. At least slow at initial and then faster in the middle to end. Fought Bloodedge with it really exposed how atrocious it was.>Just normal swing>From start to finish, bloodedge can execute two attacks
>>732305142Drinking an elixir in Nioh can infact be an offensive move depending on your build since multiple effects can proc on life recovery. The way you're describing it however, isn't offensive because you're describing a losing position. You are using an elixir because you're low on HP. Deflecting actively helps your offense the same way a dodge does. You are stupid.>>732304981You can easily make the argument that attacking is also a reaction to an enemy's state, although I think it would be quite pedantic. What we should be looking at when determining if something is offensive or defensive isn't how reactive it is, but rather how proactive it is. The "push and pull" of battle, so to speak. Does the action put you in a better position vs the enemy's position than you were in before you had committed to the action? Blocking generally puts you in a losing position. You block an attack, you suffer some amount of hit stun, take damage depending on whether elements are involved, and lose ki. There's a price to be paid for it, and strictly speaking, you are not better off after blocking than you are before blocking (although the alternative of not blocking may have been far worse). This is completely inverted with deflecting, as per what I described in the post you're replying to. Deflecting pushes your momentum forward, which is why I say that it's by nature an aggressive mechanic that is part of a winning condition
>>732304437he's english
I just found a ninja skill (Thrown Blade Counter) that auto-throws a shuriken at a locked on enemy after a successful evade. Works on archers, decent ki damage, hits the enemy from behind if you dodge through and has infinite ammo, does not use up ninpo. Only 3 points to equip.
>>732306251The fuck are you talking about? Toonposting? Yeah it fucking sucks and it's mostly trannies and faggots role playing, /vg/ is not enough to contain their faggotry
>>732306390I get the feeling we will get absolutely batshit skills by the end.
>>732306323>only arguments is literally twisting the actual meaning of words to fit his agenda and denying tangible realityno wonder you like deflecting so much!
uh
>>732306251Are you sure ? Or just you trying to derail the thread because too insecure ?
>>732306589It's how I'm so good at deflecting all your retarded arguments, true
>>732306390i hope they get real over the top with ninjutsu
>>732306083We don't have stability mystic art from spear that'll make it go further
>>732303787stay strong himecut bro
>>732306675There are lots of fun ones they can bring over from wo long. They kind of brought over the stone spikes one, flame pillar would kick ass, the earth spell that makes quicksand could be fun to fuck around with, etc. The lightning storm that moves in a straight line is essentially the sudama soul core spell. I'd love if we elemental interacting shit like wo long. For those who didn't play it you could cancel out elemental damage with the opposing element, like if Lu Bu lights his spear on fire he does fire damage but you could put it out by hitting him with a water/ice spell.
>>732290843>frecklesAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAwhats the best color to set your freckles to anyways? They always look off for me
>>732306990>elemental interacting shitdamn that sounds sick, does traditional japanese magic have the same 5 element system? i know onmyodo was all about astrology
Someone please share codes. The presets are awful. I want JAV tier models like in nioh 2. Saw japs withe cute characters but they wont share codes.

>>732307208
How many hours till launch
Everything about this game looks easier than past games, with barely any new content. Will pirate and buy maybe if it goes for $30
I just think deflect or parry in general leads to boring gameplay.You just sit there on the same spot and occasionally hit the block button.At least it looks like there's going to be positioning checks like bosses who live trails of fire on the ground to make you move around.Character moving is more interesting than character not moving
>>732306615very organic
>>732307558there she is, the iconic ninja gaiden fan favourite
>>732307279are these for console? i got an error trying to use them on pc
Deflect makes this game stupid easy.
>>732307558Oh shit thanks. Gonna play as Seori then.
I was looking at new graphics cards, since my 4070 is clearly not good enough to run Nioh3, and holy shit, I didn't realize prices were this bad. Literally a month's worth of salary for a 5090 ti
>>732307396
>>732307776the chun li one worked for me and I'm on pc>>732307845that's weird it runs fine on my 4060
>>732307897It runs like complete shit for me. I had to put several options to low setting, and aside from models, everything else is on mid. And even then, it still chokes in some areas. And I am not talking about missing 120 fps. I'm playing locked on 60, and it still can't keep it stable.
>>732307845My 4070 handles it just fine. You can easily get a locked 60fps.What's your CPU?
>>732307104I thought this one looked greatN3S-FFg[RgXDAM5kd
>>732308002that sounds like an exceptional problem, I've heard the game is cpu bottle necked but like I said it runs 60 for me at maxish settings. Then again I still have a 1080p monitor lol
>>732308002Nioh 3 is vastly CPU dependent. You can turn on Steam performance overlay and watch your CPU agonize when it tries to load several enemies and objects on a fast travel.
Have any of the reviews mentioned what the endgame is like?
>>732308002I get 80fps at high settings at 4k with dlss at 50% with my 4070 and 5700x3d
>>732302250It's both at the same time. Demon/GS guy armor but you use a suped up moveset of the weapon you have out, including martial arts/weapon skills instead of replacing your weapon like in 2.

>>732307897i must be doing something wrong with these codes>>732308174same issue with this code too
>ninja passive that lets you cleanse the yokai pools when you evadeThere really is literally no reason for shitters to ever use samurai
>>732308174>>732308386Are codes still platform-specific?
>>732308246Some french guy gave a quick overview in a review:>NG+ exists >called 'Way of The Shogun'>green gear starts dropping>graces exist>enemy placement is different>some mechanic that allows you to lower your level for better drops>few surprises he wouldn't mention>hasn't completed this difficulty yet so doesn't know or think there's a NG++
>>732308329i have the same cpu and gpu and the game runs perfectly at 1440p 60fps
>>732308442well, since the game does not have cross play, yes.
How big's the full game considering the demo? Ronin was fucking 149gb
>watch now 5 reviews>nobody stuck with Sam>nobody even touched Flash Attack>nobody mentioned endgame 'cause they all wanted to rush out their unfinished reviews>only 1 vet insulted the arduous dogshit tutorial attempt and constricted point system from Prof getting removed
>>732308562So it's literally just a case of "works on my machine"?
>>732308672It's never made sense why character creator codes in Nioh are unique downloads and not just direct value-setting codes
>>732303406It seems that even Rustled Ramirez is playing Nioh 3™It's over chuds
Poorfag here is this game as optimised as RotR? I couldn't run that game not even at 30 fps but the demo for Nioh 3 works fine and is stable at 60 fps.Did I fuck up something with RotR? Or does that game have higher spec demands?
I listened to some advice in a previous thread and tinkered with this option to help the CPU utilization issues.When this was set to aggressive Nioh 3 was sitting between 70-80% CPU usage and a temp of ~70C. After disabling this so my fans don't go nuts I'm sitting at 50% in the overworld and temps are chilling at ~60C.So far so good, but more hours are needed to clock the performance hit if any.I did already have "good" performance and could hit that 60fps, with dips, without framegen. This is more so for people that just want to prevent the sound of turbines as they play the game.If you're interested you have to edit a registry to get the option in pic related to show up. And there's a rebbit thread with a quick guide how to do it.
>>732308426Samurai is the tradition, Ninja is the Plan B. A ruler whose life is in danger should be trained in the arts of hiding among the shadows, disguising among the crowds, and escaping with haste.
>>732308798I just realized this after trying a pirated copy of rotr. what a retarded fucking idea. Why even have a code instead of a built in search function if it's gonna be server side
>>732308718The demo IS the main game size. They just artificially cut it into a chunk.
>>732308782Heard in one review that guardian skills in no way match the variety of soul cores from 2. There's a confirmation of one of my bigger worries
>>732308913Depends on your luck I guess. RoR ran perfectly fine for me, while Nioh3 demo is borderline unplayable in some areas.
>>732308913Hard to say. Nioh 3's store page had lower specs listed than RotR a couple months ago, but they changed it to match RotR at some point. If you played RotR at launch, it has been significantly optimized since. Did you fiddle with the graphical settings in either game?
>>732309073lol yeah the "guardian skill" sybau
>>732308784do you have an nvme drive?what's your ram like?
>>732309073Don't even pretend 90% of those weren't completely useless and like 3 were OP
oh nvm, i cant create a character code either. my demo is just fucked for some reason.
>>732309073Gonna be honest, i always thought turning into a random demon with soul cores in 2 when you're already a much cooler demon was lame.Now you can summon the demons instead.
>>732309047On PS5 demo is 58gb, full game is 75gb. Just preloaded for us chads
>>732309096>>732309102I set everything to low and even tried lowering the resolution for Ronin. I'm mostly worried that I forgot to update my drivers or something and that that was the reason I couldn't run the game seeing how Nioh 3 works fine.I guess I should try pirating it after finishing Nioh to check if it works. Don't wanna buy it and have to refund it again if it doesn't work
some shitters are angry you cant ippon datra spam like N2
>>732290843Nioh 3 is already out??????
>>732308913seems very similar overall, but with more significant stuttering when traversing around the world. CPU bound engine in general
>>732308782I never used Flash Attack in my hundreds of hours of the first two games.>>732309073That was obvious even going by the alpha and demo.
>>732309307God Ippon Datra spam was so disgusting with how often I got away with it.
>>732309320Friday at midnight but there's a decently long demo
>>732309175Most soul cores were decent at least, it was more like 2/6/2 in terms of OP/good/Bad.
>>732308718steam says 125gb
>>732309152I don't know what nvme drive is, my ram is 24, because the last slot is blocked by the fan, and I am to scared to move it.
>>732309320You gotta wait 28 more hours
>>732308782they weren't allowed to talk about itI like fightincowboy and his review was good but it was weird seeing him never even attempt burst attacks or deflect once and he claimed he already beat the game on his main save.
>>732309293Ah that's not bad, like 20 more gigs than Nioh 2 was.
>>732309175>Oni-bi x3>Mezuki & Gozuki>Aberrant Soldier>Nurikabe>Magatsu Warrior>Cyclops>Wheelmonk>Scampuss>Ippon DataraI found a lot of use out of them
>>732309073You can still animation cancel while summoning Yokai so it's just from the fourth person perspective
>>732309073sometimes less but more refined is a good thing.
so the DLC is gonna be 2 new regions right?
>>732309540Thishe also most likely never played nioh 2 at launch because EVERYONE spammed Yatsu-no-Kami with healing recieved from yokai ability dmg affix no fucking questions asked every single person ran that shit and for good reason before it got nerfed.
>>732309415hard drive that looks like this and attaches directly to the motherboardaccording to the steam page it's required to run the game properlymost new PCs have them
I only need a switchglaive with Celestial Retribution to complete the crucible artsWHY WON'T IT DROP
>>732309540>>732309667Snake, the owl, Kasha, Enenra, Nureonna, etc...are all pretty good. Its harder to try to think which ones were absolute shit>tesso>kappa>mujina>kodama>yamambaThese are the ones i can think i never used
>>732309307They'll move onto the 1kat parry + big damage sword slash cheese instead.
Post your Tokugawas
>>732309696I just noticed is say win 11 required. Might that also be a reason why? I'm still on 10.
>>732309540I liked the fat mud guy that spun around, he also had heal on amrita absorb so he was equipped on my grug builds.
>>732309540>no lightning godsthe most kino soul core
only gooners will post about this game because it will>filter millions
>>732309306I hadn't updated my drivers for 2 years when Ronin came out (intentionally) but still got better performance with lower specs than most reviews claimed. Drivers are a crapshoot, they regress all the time. More likely it's because Nioh's world is much smaller with fewer actors and more copypasting, so it the asset streaming load is significantly lower.
>>732309849I'm on Win10 playing it without (much) issue
>>732309696m2 =/= nvmem2 is the form factor, but they can be both sata or nvme
>>732309849if the game actually starts and plays then that shouldn't be an issuethough I have w11 personally
>>732309959It might also have been my driver. Don't know when I last updated it.
>>732309175Plenty were usable, many had purpose in applying confusion. They aren't essential to Nioh combat being good but being able to full send it on openings with something like magatsu warrior core was immensely satisfying. I've never bothered with Ippon or other OP stuff.>>732309571Yeah I'm just worried about the refined part because what we have in the demo isn't too interesting, aside from maybe the Nekomata disengage.
>>732302221>color accurateThey switched colours after the Ikedaya Incident.
>>732309806
>>732309953I mention drivers cause I had the same problem with the Nioh demo, though it wasn't as bad as Ronin.I had 30-60 fps in the tutorial and it started dropping to 10-30 fps when actual fighting started. Which is when I realised I hadn't updated drivers in a whileUsually I always remember to update drivers after bad performance in game but I'm wondering if I forgot with RotR since Nioh works fine.
>>732302580I killed the third one an hour ago. The only big thing I haven't done is Raiju.
>>732309806I'm not downloading the demo again
There was some other 2kat anon a few threads ago asking about Earthly Flow on those big headed farmer yokai. I tested it out and I can't seem to get the move to work on them either, not sure why. It normally works against all yokai attacks but it's either bugged or there's certain attacks that it just doesn't work on after all.
>>732304547>the element he uses matches the element of your spirit guardian so you can make him work for almost any build.Oh, that's good to know
>>732309806still wip
>>732290843Will William Adams fuck her?
>>732305514Type B with split burst/style shift is the one that I liked the most so far.
>>732304241Pretty depressing since they butchered onmyo as well. My fav build is dead
>>732310762no (that's why she expels the foreigners)

>preordered on Gamesplanet cause it's cheaperowari da, no preload key
>>732309959Same
>>732308782>nobody stuck with SamI mean at the end of the day the hot new thing is the Ninja mode, but my understanding is that most people baseically played 50/50
>>732311336There's no preload at all on PC
>>732311336there's no preload yet on steam
>>732297129Isn't that DSP?
>>732310431I just tested it, doesn't work on that farmer yokai's hoe or big head attacks. Worked on 3 other yokai
>>732311416>>732311430holy shit im saved (cast into the shit with everyone else)oh well. im excited for release
This the game where you could make the MJ custom character?
Can you keep fighting the last boss in the demo?
>>732311596No but you can make very young model tier shogun such as this.Can you believe this young looking 17 year old samurai man is actually 36 years old? yeah its insane!
>>732311628Yeah.
>>732311725kinda unrealistic
