Dunno bros it just dont feel like Nioh when im in Ninja which SUCKS because my ninja has 10x the dps of my samurai and feels infinitely easier to play.
All the new bosses throw out 312312312 combo strings and projectiles that are far easier to dodge with ninja than to block/parry/dodge with samurai.
It feels like cheating using the ninja but otherwise I feel like I am a dark souls character fighting bloodborne bosses

Nioh 3 is a dumbed down easier casualized time wasting open-field mass appeal product, it is not a true Nioh game, it betrayed the Nioh IP and the fans of Nioh 1 and 2, the stats don't lie:

>Nioh 3 sees massive early success with 700,000 copies sold in just four days, generating over $50 million in revenue

>China leads the charge for Nioh 3, while more Nioh 3 players played Elden Ring than Nioh 2

>In terms of market share, China is the top country for the Nioh franchise, now accounting for 48.7% of the total player base across Steam and PlayStation.

>While the series has historically maintained a strong presence in the region on Steam, Nioh 3 peaked in China engagement across the board.

>This success is the result of a deliberate, localised marketing push by Team NINJA, headlined by producer Kohei Shibata’s appearance at ChinaJoy 2025.

>In fact, East Asia accounts for almost two-thirds of Nioh 3’s audience (including China, Japan, and Taiwan). Nioh 3 blends deep Shinto and Buddhist philosophies with an authentic dark fantasy retelling of Japan’s Bakumatsu period, grounding its supernatural elements in shared regional history.

>Nioh 3 has drawn more heavily from the broader souls-like audience than from its own direct predecessor. While loyalty remains high, with 66.6% of Steam players and 69.0% of PlayStation players having played Nioh 2, it is no longer the primary source of the audience.

I mean yokai abilities being swapped with guardian spirit talismans. The animation canceling is nice but requires it being used as a skill and also you barely get any casts. At best it's a side grade swapping yokai abilies with guardian spirit type moves, but I think the GS attacks are all pretty lame

>You objectively get more casts of stronger spells and it requires actual investment again like Nioh 1 instead of being a 20 point splash.
Another sidegrade, at best. Onmyo was quite strong (not just as a splash) in 2 due to buffs and how easily they caused status build 3. In 3 you're locked to spells on cores, can't choose how many of each you need, and you need to invest in two stats to get anything worthwhile. Splitting duration into a second stat was silly

>Combat flow itself is more dynamic.
Lot of words basically saying nothing. You can mash out skills more because of the martial arts tweak but it's essentially no different from what we were already doing with versatility before outside of making it easier

>Ninja mode is fun and it's entire existence provides additional depth to both combat and character building.
I don't think it brings any depth. People (I know this is a terrible example so feel free to rip into me about it) I've talked all chose one or the other, not both. The idea is to pick two weapons that scale together, but now you essentially have twice as much to go through and we already had a dual weapon system that filled that niche. I'm glad people find it fun, truly, but I would have rather had actual new weapons that engage with core Nioh mechanics (ki pulse and stances) rather than a host of new weapons with a completely different play style.

I'm totally fine agreeing to disagree on all of this, but I feel like a lot of changes were for the sake of change and were just side grades. I still enjoy the game, and I'm not disappointed enough to hate it, but I'm very curious to see what the DLC brings.

Being bad with Samurai is often a stat check. If your build autism is good enough you can muscle your way through things you shouldn't.
Ninja can't really do that but it does let you avoid damage more easily and certain slow bosses are easy to cheese with Ninja's mobility. You don't even have to time your dodges that well just stick to the boss's ass and some can't do anything about it.

When are they fixing the input parser? Switch glaive feels horrible because of it. Some combo enders can be switched into another stance for the attack and some can't.

debatable, the arbitrarily baseline splits between samurai and ninja already invalidate this from being "the" nioh game to play. build variety also seems a lot worse with how some of the new systems work. also the game has a severe lack of guardian spirits. i'm still having fun with the game but this is such a mixed experience considering what we already got from 1 and 2. Music is still 10/10 at least if that matters.

Time to play some Nioh 3.
I think I'm about 2/3rds or almost 2/3rds of the way through Bakumatsu.
So far in terms of level-design and gameplay Bakumatsu has been my favorite, and the game is also at its most difficult right now.
I think they've overdone the apocalyptic looking aesthetic a bit too much though.
It's fine for one area, in which case Bakumatsu fits perfectly as the endgame area looking all crazy and fucked, but the impact isn't there because Heian also had a very apocalyptic look.
I also wish Yamatai was a bigger part of the game. It's basically just one small level and one big level. The big level is really good, but the setting is so cool it's a shame we don't spend more time there.
Hopefully the DLCs bring a bit more variety.

Honestly it should have been tackled in the story, which is the worst out of all the games and doesn’t matter that much, but the vibes are off when it comes to the crucibles. They need to retcon them or something.

Amrita is a secret stone that the English are hunting for in nioh 1. It’s this mythical legend. How can that be the case when you have giant centipedes that are the size of mountains lmao. Even in 2 it shows the great lengths that tokichiro goes to, to steadily acquire a shit load of them, and it never gets as ridiculous as the crucibles

It also makes every region villain hilarious

You know time travel is a core component of the plot within the opening.
But also

That's like starting Nioh 2 in The First Samurai

You see Kiruko's phantom behind your brother in the beginning in the exact same way that you see Kashin Koji literally annihilate your vocal cords. You know who the antagonist is while not knowing his name. And you know something weird is happening across time because you

But even more then that the game quite literally spells out that the person behind your brother is the ancient evil your quest centered around. pic related. There are people that STILL missed this. "Wow what an ass pull" or whatever.

You can wear the heaviest armor with B Agility at higher numbers but that's the only real reason to pump Stamina past the soft cap. It's not really worth it to go crazy on it to try and get A agility on medium armor, the difference between B and A is much less than the difference between B and C.

I appreciate that every boss in this game feels like a good challenge but it's a little stressful. The last boss before this one was hard enough and it pretty much pushes you straight to the next one. But the actual levels are too easy and the open world stuff is boring. I'm worried they'll just debuff the bosses instead of buffing everything else

I think it may be because of how strong the ninja guardian spirit is along with how much base damage the ninja attacks do. ninja is supposed to be weaker but i guess they made all the base attacks stronger to compensate for not having stances. ninja feels pretty busted all around.

I replayed the games recently, the dwellers are spammed in 1 not 2, in 2 they only appear in caves and mines, as appropriate. 2 has extremely good enemy variety in fact, the first mission alone has more yokai types than the entirety of 1.

I tried him as soon as he unlocked for ebin 4chan credz, but he was just too tanky. Pretty easy to deflect and dodge, but make one mistake and it's over.
Came back after heian and he was a pushover.

>no unique drops for NG+
>>
>>732873325
Just fucking possess them and make them play by yokai rules, I don't understand why those ungodly human bosses need to exist. You have to chip away at them like theyre a yokai with super armor attacks but you also can't deplete their stamina because they regen it like a human.

isnt + values increased? I think its capped to +5 for NG and I guess +10 for NG+ but i have no idea.

>>732874276
That's a good question actually.
It's not even like breaking them gives you an opportunity to deal a lot of damage like when youkai bosses turn into ragdolls
>>
>>732874612
Sure, the levels are increased but that's it. Most of the open world exploration stuff gives nothing if you've collected them in NG.
Crucible spikes still give max spirit force I guess

Haven't played the game yet.

Will people actually bother with NG+? Playing a big open world game back-to-back sounds like a big ask, the vast majority will probably tap out.

Yes, I know the DLC's will likely add more NG+ specific mechanics and graces and shit but still, you won't pay me enough money to play Elden Ring back-to-back 5 times on the same character.

Stuff in ng+, as in crucibles and outposts can be restored using items so that you can do it again (and enhanced using a rarer item), but it can also respond by itself.

it all gets carried over
everything is marked on the map
you can still just collect it again though for more rewards if you want

you DO want to redo all the crucible spikes and lesser crucibles since these do increase your spirit power again
and you do want to fight crucible wraths to get their rare blue core drop instead

The calamitous lightning and water spells are great, short cast time, good damage, and plenty of infliction. You can even shotgun the water spell into someone's back for the backstab bonus.
Enhanced shapernal bombs does a ton of damage against big mobs though it takes a second or so to cast.
You can easily do a ninjursu only run with those.
Most of the other spells seem kind of ass in comparision, though I haven't tried all of them.
>>
>>732879180
I hated switchglaive. It just felt so odd. The stance swapping attacks fucked with my ki pulse instincts, the animations after attacks were really long, and I just couldn't get the range. It was the Samurai weapon I enjoyed the least (used all of them for at least 500 kills for the titles).

I'll buy it all when it's like 30 bux. Not getting fomo'd when it's basically 95% nioh 2

In Bakumetsu, some assets take some time to load, even enemy reinforcement in Crucible Gauntlets.
But the funny shit? It's when you summon a Yokai. Sometimes, it takes 10 15 seconds to appear. It's even more funny against the twin axe guy from Heian. Some of his summons took 5 sec to show up. The fight becomes more random between his super armor and the yokais popping randomly.

It's probably my shit old PC rather than something intended, but very fun.

I really wish I liked this game more, but if it wasn't a Nioh I would actually just straight-up hate it.

Between the 3 I care the least about its plot and characters, least enjoy the bosses, despise the bifurcated gameplay and gear, and it's far and away the most buggy.

They really tried at the end to get me to spare Kunimatsu
I slimed that motherfucker out. Rest in piss, retard.
Disappointing final boss, would've first tried him if I remembered to restock elixirs before going in

level 134 - a sinister end
make sure you kill hiruko first so divines start dropping then come back to map and repeat this til you get a drop
https://old.reddit.com/r/Nioh/comments/1r2jm2k/yasakani_magatama_divines_farming_spot/?sort=new
well he's just killing 3 dudes i run into the room, aggro all of them and nuke the shit out of them with onmyo maxed hellfire

but with ninja style you can get even more luck than samurai because of the sohaya set gives 100 in crucible (which this maps counts as) + a shitload from ho guardian spirit
pic related is what i'm using for my setup
>>
>>732890401
Kill Hiruko on ng+ before going back to ng or no?
>>
>>732890814
no you just need to kill hiruko on ng to unlock divines
so you can start farming as soon as you clear the game once
>>
>>732890854
Based will do asap before starting NG+, thanks brother

I have a 1300 MB/s ssd and the npc beside the save spot doesn't load right away, and you are supposed to get a key from her. You would easily leave the room before seeing her.

Ok, that anon must have lied, I have over a dozen crucible weapons with all the same skill. No way this shit drops in the first dungeon.

I have the same issue on a very modern rig with a NVME drive
It's just shitty Jap coding. I found that lowering the frame rate helped some, but not much

disappointing but expected
