Talk about missed opportunity.
This shit game is a missed opportunity for Team Ninja to finally make a good game game again after shovelware flop after flop the last 5 years.
>>733038869The later demons aren't that hard.
>>733039141I barreled through envy + obsession tooBut I'm worried about an Envy that does damage I now have to respectThank god the theme is good
>game is woke
>>733038915Did you AI sloppify a NA event image?
Shingen... was bald?
do you like my chiyu
>>733039365she cute
>Iemitsu ruled from 1623 to 1651; during this period he crucified Christians, expelled all Europeans from Japan and closed the borders of the country, a foreign policy that continued for over 200 years after its institution.Dlc should be about Amakusa rebellion going back in time to BTFO Christians even more
>ng+ bloodedge was still the hardest boss in the gamethis fucker is crazy
I took the Hatchets pill this afternoon and it feels amazing. The aerials are fantastic, the swooce behind is quick as fuck, and getting a grapple when someone tries to block is disgusting
>what if a big fish that flops around and constantly makes your camera spini fucking hate the bosses in this game at this point desu senpai
>>733039405The DLCs were leaked on the Chinese PSN.>DLC 1 - Keian Uprising (1651)>DLC 2 - Amakusa Rebellion (1637-1638)
>>733039514Hatchets probably has the coolest grapple attack as well. I love that shit
>>733039574The fuck are these literally who events
Is nekomata gonna babble all game?
I think I cleared up upper Kyoto as much as I could. Going to finish the game after I eat some dinner. I'll do a mini review for you guys after I finish the game because I know how much you love the opinion from some random faggot online.
Did they change the cost to upgrade Spirit Guardians?
>>733039620I'm in act 2 and you swap yappers
how big is her yokai futa sword?
>>733039612The Amakusa rebellion was notable, it was a Catholic samurai who led a failed revolt against the Shogunate. Said samurai was the villain of the 80s action film Samurai Resurrection, where he renounces Christ and pledges his soul to the devil for a chance at revenge. This version of him served as a template for his appearances in Samurai Shodown, where he's one of the main villains
>>733039620Nekomata is more important than your entire combined bloodline. Apologize right now.
>>733039852I'm choosing to believe this is horseshit and we'll get other eras instead of just 1600s again.
>>733039863
What does the new DOA announcement mean for Nioh/NG?
>>733039760So why did we bully her again? She was just trying to stick up for youkai getting killed and Takechiyo turned her into another statistic. I knew the Tokugawa were the baddies but this just felt extra wrong.
>>733040104booba
>>733039612Amakusa is worthy of dlc, its like the only notable conflict after sengoku era until the boshin war That being said, bakumatsu region was like that you had all these literally who shitters as “masters” because they off screened kondo and ryoma
>>733040185I'll simply believe bloody insurrection is the boshin war, in which Ryoma will play a key part.
>>733040104Future city open field where you fight Ryu and Rachel to get their Dragon Sword, Inferno Hammer and outfits
Did anyone figure out a magic setting or .ini file change or some driver bullshit to make the performance bearable on non super computers yet
>>733039251Can you stop posting your niggachiyo
>>733039852>Samurai ResurrectionThat's a 2003 film. The one you're on about is 1981's Samurai Reincarnation.
>>733040131>Takechiyo turned her into another statisticShe seems to be pretty sure she will come back when you defeat her
>No Masamune>No Naomasa>No Yukimura>No Nobunigga>No MuneshigeWhat the fuck are they doing? Where are all the famous samurai? Why is the game filled with literally who jobbers and retards nobody gives a FUCK about
>>733040131It's a bizarre juxtaposition after Nioh 2 was all about presenting yokai as actually misunderstood forces of nature that could be corrupted by humanity.
>>733039574They better give us new maps, they had a lot of time after recycling like fucking crazy
Been liking Baka-matsu quite a lot, really happy that we finally got a Goemon set after 3 fucking games and he was just a kappa in Nioh 1, and at least they gave the Shinsengumi Revenants some voice acting instead of what they normally do
>>733039365No
>>733039702it's like 10k to get one to 40 in ng+ it costs like nothing now
>>733039760If I beat the shit out of her will she let me lick her abs?
>>733039702>>733040857The price lowered as you progressed in the storyIn the final act of NG it was like 3 millionWhen I was in the final act of NG+ it was about 7k per
>>7330396584.8k hp? Todo?
>>733040104DoA7 has only started production. It's not in active development and won't be seen for years if it doesn't just get canceled between then.
>>733040713yeah she does and you bully her again. It's a really bad plotline, they simply could have given her no dialogue at all but she clearly says shes sticking up for youkai getting hunted by humans so this makes us the bad guys here. another reason why william and hide are better.>>733041023Yeah with 30 stamina. I think people having been saying Todo is bugged but idk, I put it on for the ninjitsu bonus so the extra health is nice.
Are the locked clans DLC shit or what?
Awakening shouldn't be a mastery. It's too instrumental for any build.
>>733041228At this rate she just wants us to spank her over and over
>>733040131She attacked me. I was there just to purify the barrier. And later she attacked me again when I was investigating a thing that was attracting aratama.
I finished the game earlier finally. It's solid but not as good as 2 not even including 2's DLC. I couldn't get a yasakani to drop for samurai so I'll be doing ng+/coop as a ninja to try that out moreMagic nuke build is fun but I'm debating using the con/hp grace mixed with a ninjutsu/magic one and just PUMPING hp
>>733041343Nah.
bro why is kunimiatsu when u return to that timeline taking so little damage what the fuck
>>733041228>yeah she does and you bully her againWe bully her again because she was about to go on a murder rampage. We will continue doing it until she learns manners and becomes a housewife. Thankfully she seems to start appreciating MC's prowess in combat.
anyone seen lvl 170 weapons with crucible modifier? been farming for a while now and haven't seen a single one yet
>>733041471>Nioh 3 is easier than 2Kunimatsu took me more tries than any boss in Nioh 2, even when they added than onmyo faggot in an update
How do I remodel weapons to change their scaling? I had to dump a ton of points into stamina and need to make that investment actually work.
I think heavy armor just makes the game too easy
>>733042120Same as it ever was. I stack heavy armor+HP+buffs every game
I think Agility A just makes the game too easy
>>733041945yeah this is much harder than anything from 1 or 2. nigga traking no damage, infinite hyper armor, and buttloads of ki. seems to be weak to nothing.
>>733042120Always been the caseSomething like Honda's charge thrust in 2 which would kill a player outright got soaked by heavy armor.
>>733042197I'm gonna do ng+ in light and see, I think. I grugged it up for most of ng and thought the game was a joke.
>>733041903What's the point of crucible modifiers one you already learned the art?
>>733042367I grugged 90% of the game and then did like half of the bakumatsu era+end as ninja mode in light armor spamming magic and ninjutsuBoth were able as easy as one another
3 is by far the easiest game in the series. still fun but they powercrept their own game for no reason.
>>733042010Iirc you first need to do blacksmith's quests. Then the weapon needs to have at least +1. Beyond that you just remodel at blacksmith by picking stats and pasting the cost.
>Finale lets you choose whether to spare or kill your brotherKilling him goes so ridiculously against the game's themes of family and unification that it's hilarious they even offer the choice, especially given he's repentant and was also being manipulated by an ancient evil that you indirectly facilitated.
>>733042445I mean, it's not for no reason, it's so more people to play it. Just have to wait for the DLC, or sandbag hard.
>>733042489I killed him without a second guess
>>733042368Crucible weapons have boosted Effect values.
>>733042489Yeah, especially after you're shown stopping Ushiwaka
>>733042445I disagree
>>733042120>>733042263>Running heavy armour on samurai and agility A on ninja
>>733042489the reason he was so easily possessed in the first place was because of his envy, pride and obsession
>>733042609to be fair, takechiyo might have stopped that because historically, whats his name HAD to survive and eventually win against his brother, otherwise the future would turn out to be very different given how key he was
>>733041903I have a 161 crucible weapon which is above the "limit" so yeah probably
>>733042609>Rules for thee but not for me
>>733042478Okay got it. Is there a way to make a +0 weapon a +1?
>>733042791Also if your character didn't step in Yoritomo would've won anyways
>>733042489the weak should fear the strong
>>733042835yeah i have exactly one lvl 161 ninja weapon with crucible modifier, but i've gotten so many 170's now i'm starting to wonder, gonna keep farming though
>>733039514Are there any unique hatchet models that change their weapon type like how Katana has broadswords, axe has clubs/hammers, etc?
>Yoshitsune getting his region overtaken by Yoshitomo>You show up and do all the work to fix the barriers and make Yoshitomo reachable>Yoshitsune tries to fight Yoshitomo and gets his shit kicked in immediately>You show up and save him and beat up Yoshitomo and make him retreat>Yoshitsune: "And don't let me see your face around here again or I'll give you a real beating next time!"
Ninja weapons:Tonfas > 1kat > 2kat > talons > hatchets > kusarigama > splitstaff>Samurai weapons:1kat > odachi > axe > spear > switchglaive > cestus > 2katDifferences between the samurai weapons aren't that big, they all feel pretty good and the ranking could easily shift based on preference. Tonfas are best Ninja weapon by far and both kusa and splitstaff feel like shit.
Himiko feet...
>game wants me to believe that ancient gook society in 247 CE had metal swords and extremely complex and enormous stone monuments that eclipse the pyramidsi dont think so, timi know the game isnt supposed to be historically factual, even if it does use characters from history, but some things go beyond the pale
>>733043108>cestus of all things that lowroom temp iq post
>>733042674>mfw running A toughness and A agility on my Samurai
Halfway through the game and 1kat/tonfa kinda zzz. Sell me your weapons. Don't care if it trivializes the game. Just lookin' to have fun.
>>733038915Kenshin will be the waifu of Nioh 4
>>733043136They literally had it only because the tree allowed them to use amrita peacefully before Himiko went Ganon
>>733042445Can we stop pretending this series has ever been difficult? You literally have magic that lets you slow bosses, halve their defense/attack, double your attack, revive yourself, fucking power ups that let you turn invincible and spam attacks for 20 seconds.If any boss in this series has taken you more than 3 tries you’re mentally retarded.
>>733042445It has less to do with powercreep and more with reducing damage across the board, making debuffs less potent and enemies less aggressive.
models become very pixelated while in motion, I dunno if I messed something up in the settings or if it's just the area I'm in that shits the bedmotion blur settings don't do anything
>>733042905Yes. It's under the same option as increasing the level.
>>733043284Spear is fun
>>733043303People still pretend Souls is difficult and that's a series where you magic spam every single boss to death from 50 feet away, and in Elden Ring you can have a summon distracting the boss on top of that.
>>733042489Your character going THE SHOGUN IS MEEEE as you cut off his head felt almost comically jarring. Who cares about being Shogun? Killing him should have been more about ending the threat to the world.Also the final boss was ridiculously easy and rather uneventful. I was expecting a second phase.
>>733043108Kusa is like hatchets of old where you need to learn a bunch of advanced techniques and cancels to have any amount of real fun with itBut it also has some serious jank like it's midair chain tosses fucking missing anything human sized at the distance where you'd actually want to use it, mid-air reaper pushing you backwards when every other weapons variation including tonfa moves you forward, It also has a bunch of weird cancel points on it's longer movesI don't hate it though
>>733039405>>733039852I can't see them making Amakusa totally evil, the true villain by the asshole daimyo who actually did get executed in real life for being oppressive.
>>733040131Because she's a violent monster, anon. She's the second in command to one of the three Great Yokai, all of which are called that specifically because the death and destruction they caused. You're basically saying,>why did we kill Shuten Doji? All he wanted to do was party!
>>733043476What build were you using? The final boss kicked my ass for around an hourBut that's because I made a deliberate decision not to throw magic at him.
>>733043485Switching from Kusa to Hatchets and yeah, Kusa's weight would miss shit way too often. You toss it with an aerial and it flies right over them
>>733040794I can't remember if it's Yoshitsune or Kurama Tengu but they do say that people lived in harmony in Heiankyo, but I'm not 100% sure it wasn't just beacause of the barrier or what their exact purpose is yet.
>>733043303>Can we stop pretending this series has ever been difficult
I miss Yokai weapons
>>733043476>the final boss was ridiculously easyFor me it was by far the hardest fight in the game.
>>733042489Ronin had the same choice, but you don't even get them as a companion which annoyed me
>>733043284Fist is pure ungabunga reckless charge lets you gap close from enemy to enemy while maintaining arts proficiency so you can clear whole waves with a single arts proficiency bar and strategic ki fluxing, it feels amazing
Did spear get anything in this game? Feels exactly the same as Nioh 2, compared to Axe and Odachi getting a lot
>>733043771Can't fix perfection, brother means "No, not really"
>>733043563i can fix her
>>733043694We should have been able to team up with the Blade Twin in one of the early confrontations
>Asmon build is 90% equip load just spamming spin 2 win with the axe>He's already at the end of the gamelmao
>Shinsaku's theme>shimshen kicks in>dude was thinking you're here for his head and was still joking on a verge of death
>>733043771At least triple threat isn't a boss skill
>>733043732that is where i was thinking of going. it was real fun in 2.
>>733043771Not really. Besides pretzel fingers at any rate due to being able to preshift combo enders now. So now you do double pre switches to both get the combo and the rainbow ruse. My hands fucking won't agree with me.
>>733039414are you supposed to fight these things early on?They always 1 shot me
>>733043298The tree was probably evil and he was acting in self-defense
>>733043851Based.
>>733043601Now THIS is Nioh.
Some random ass dude in r*ddit said his performance unironically got way better after updating his windows version, is it worth trying
>>733038915They should let you play as hiddy as a dlc or expacI miss my yokai trigger
>>733044093I'd rather believe a jew than a r*dditor.
>>733044110I miss how forgiving ippon-datara and feral dodge was for getting out of my bad mistakes>attack when the boss is winding upTime to Ippon Datara>Get windedTime to Ippon Datara>Boss movesTime to Ippon DataraI've gotten an appreciation of how much of a crutch being able to just force stagger bosses was.
Am I retarded or are the terracotta warriors a giant pain in the ass? I swear these fucks had much less HP in the past.
>>733044093Ronin was broken for months because of a windows update. Is it worth the risk?
>>733043771It got a massive early game power boost thanks to having triple threat nearly from the start, but otherwise no, not beyond frost moon at least. It's hard to improve spear further since it's literally perfect compared to axe that deserved all the buffs and additions.
>>733044260I've been ignoring Triple Threat because I'm bad, I should practice the timing
>>733044227Antiquity is a huge difficulty jump because of the sentries and black sentries in particular, if you don't have magic to melt them down then be prepared for a pretty unfun time.
>>733044198I don't know what this means considering a r*dditor is supporting what a jew (Microjew) is saying
>takeda's four heavenly kings>there's five bossesOk that got me good. Guess I'll come back in a couple hundred levels.
>>733043136It's because they reused the Wo Long assetsI find funnier how the stone chests of that time period make the wooden chest sound when you open them
>>733044387FUCKWho's the fifth one? I already job to the horse guy on the regular.
>>733044220This but Kasha's beyblade
>>733044227Yamatai has an abrupt HP spike for everything you need level 100+ weapons minimum
>>733044387Nvm, I know, it's the fucking immortal Takeda Shingen, is that right?
>>733043771Literally got nothing besides the one obligatory air skill, I'm pretty sure every other samurai weapon got more
I want more western demons goddammit
>>733044227I recall them folding to elemental damage. Or maybe just lightning/
>>733044546That thing being easier than the 3 kelly room will never not be funny
>>733044508Yeah. I spent two hours getting to and jobbing on the horse asshole and when I FINALLY kill him that motherfucker shows up to reopen my already sore asshole.
>>733043476its kinda strange because takechiyo has voice lines at several parts throughout the game, but they're veeeeeeeeeeery sparse. even in moments where it would really make sense for the character to speak and show some emotion and express his motivations, the character remains silentits like they couldnt decide whether they wanted the character to be a voiceless neutral self-insert like link from legend of zelda, or a voiced and fully fleshed out pre-written character
>>733044227use lightning
>>733044227I just walk past them.
>>733044712Fucking knew it, I joked after the first I think 2 times we defeat him that he's like a fucking cockroach. Little did I know then.
>>733043476>Also the final boss was ridiculously easy and rather uneventful. I was expecting a second phase.Same. Only took me 3 or 4 tries. His actual moves were really easy to read and avoid; I just died to the sudden projectiles on some attacks that do obscene damage.
>>733044753Carried over from Ronin having lines but Hiddy being mute
>>733044631To be fair the clone Kelly bonanza was the single fucking hardest encounter in the game and is still easily top 3 hardest n the series for me
>>733044546Hundred Eyes isn't a western demon, but that design does look occult to fuck.
>>733041903They only drop in crucibles gaynigga
>>733043108Debating trying tonfas but ninja 1kat is simple and fast so I find it hard to really want anything else
Are certain crucible skills like Sword of Meditation locked to later crucibles?
>>733044093>>733044229We need an anon to bear the brunt of it and try it before reporting back.It might work for all we know.
FUUUUUUUCCCCKKI just loaded up the game to see the character creator, now I'm checking my save file and it appears to be gone, I have the two attempts from just now and all the rest are from the demo it seems.
>no bathhouse levelthis isn't nioh
You know what, I might use this horrible performance and bad release as an excuse to just redownload Nioh 2 or SoP and play them again until they fix it.
>>733044631No the lasers hit hard as fuck.
>>733043284HatchetSome dumb human motherfucker blocking your attacks? Wolf Rage his stupid ass, crush his guard, crush his ki, knock him on his ass, then magdump a dozen axes on him with Chain Hurl.An aggressive asshole you want to keep in place? Dragonfly traps them in a fucking axe-tornado while you can shit on them from just out of reach.Every other weapon has to stand still or use whatever baked mobility their attacks come with. Hatchets have motherfucking Advancing Storm where you get to flip around, defy gravity, and throw hatchets while moving however the fuck you want. Circle around behind the enemy to crush their fucking spine with the Strong one-two combo, the second hit has a great backstab multiplier.And my favorite combo:First, Scaling Waterfall (Hold the attack button) to do a somersault kick while also throwing two homing artillery axes into the sky.Second, Fire Foot Drill [Jump] to do a fucking screw kick into the fucker's head, kickflipping off of them while throwing more axes.Finally, Plummet to throw yet more axes as you come down and crush their skull with falling axe kick. (combo's iffy on some enemies unless you time and space it right to account for their size)
>>733045146 hereI'm retarded, hitting continue didn't work but manually loading the game did work fine
>>733045442im a 1kat mansimple as
>>733045356On later cycles, sureOn your first NG cycle that thing folded before I even saw most of it's movesThat kelly room however took me 30 minutes
>>733043771They changed a few inputs like low stance getting spearfall and high stance getting that fast stab attack combo ender, but it still feels very good.What did odachi/axe get? I mained that in Nioh 2 and had a blast.
>>733044960>single hardest encounterThat isn't the final floor of the abyss.
this shit flopped, no?
>>733043108sub freezing IQ post besides 1kat being the best/most versatile Samurai weapon
>>733045596It could sell 2 copies and it wouldn't matter to meI'm not a shareholder
>>733045518>What did odachi/axe get?Arts Proficiency letting them unga harder than ever before.
What do you guys do with white, yellow, blue, purple rarity gear?
>>733045596Oh yeah bro, just like every single release since pong.
>>733045341They're not going to substantially fix it. Team Ninja cannot use the Katana Engine well at all unlike Omega Force with Samurai/Remnant and then especially Origins. Koei Tecmo may have to intervene to either train or promote personnel who can.
>>733045639that is some significant ungastill trash damage compared to ninja
>>733045442Nicely said. They feel excellent, I'm keeping kusa in the back pocket but I have little reason to swap. Pinning fuckers down because they dared to block is great. Also I know Tonfa are broken but I just don't like em
how the FUCK do you make the gunsticks go boom?
>>733045663I insta crunch everything besides purples. Which I dismantle if they have a hammer and sell if they don'tBut these days I just crunch everything that's not divine automatically

>>733043601goddamn it you're making me want to play nioh 2
>>733045636hold deez nuts. GOTTEM
>>733044753Yeah, I find hilarious how people was like>Finally a main character that talks again, Hiddy was a mute retard!And it turns out it would've not made a difference because your character speaks like 4 times and half of them is just you saying your name to introduce yourself
>If you get behind an enemy, ninja mode does 3x the damage of samurai modeWhy does Samurai even exist

Reminder that the best set for damage on Ninja is literally being naked with no weapon.Fist skills, fist talisman, carnage, off hand weapon buff art, and no armor skill.
>guy takes off his helmet and reveals his bald head>instantly loses all auralifes not fair
>>733046181you /v faggots really need to stop playing as a woman and quit being porn addicts. youre character looks ridiculous btw.
>>733046356That's lame, which inherently means it's not the best.
>>733041228it might be bugged, because most letter grade bonuses give microscopic changesattack bonus for strength from the kintaro set with 40 strength on a 160 +3 kintaro's axe makes it go from like 2000 to 2050todo literally doubles your hp even at like level 100, feels like it shouldn't do that

Where is the faster ranged aiming accessory effect in Nioh 3? It's essential for ranged aiming to be usable at all outside sniping.

>>733046126>Why does Samurai even existso you can stand there and literally ignore everything a boss does (aside from grab attacks)
interesting

>>733047060Bathe in sengoku, bathe in antiquity then go back to sengoku and bathe again in that same sidequest
>>733047195thanks
Do the open fields get smaller? I'm still in the Sengoku era but I really don't care about doing side content. The Hino-Enma dungeon was okay, so if there's more of that then that's fine, but otherwise it just feels like Ubisoft checklist stuff to pad the game.
>>733047253Heian is half the size of sengoku but Bakumatsu is huge
>>733046479Todo is bugged, people who use it are playing the game with training wheels
>>733047253heian is a circular donutantiquity is a straight line into an elevator (so another type of line right really)edo is like 1 mini zone bakumatsu is another open field type area, feels as big as sengoku but it has quite a few "hino-enma dungeon" tier locations inthen you're back to edo (a straight line to the final boss)

>>733040104Fighting games today are to tied into FGC bullshit so I'm not expecting much of anything.
>>733043851I want to fight the Catholics as iemitsu so we can have an entire faction fo murder of marias
>>733047656Did the Shogun also summon demons and have guardian spirits irl
>>733047656don't care
>>733047559Is that Kuzunoha?
>>733047656You sound upset
>john dlc goes super yokai mode>his brother just goes yokai mode in response and instantly defeats him>takechiyo cleans up his mess >refuses to even finish the jobYes I'll kill countless foot soldiers, but killing the one causing the conflict? That's one step to far, that's not what it means to be a Shogun™
>takechiyo is destined to turn into a fatass with a dumb hat as all his time is taken up by administration rather than hunting demons and shitgrim
>>7330445462nd dlc.
>>733047849why was his sleeves so big though
Kunimatsu making me quit. Not fun.
>>733047830his brother is one of the key figures that wins an unifies the country which will eventually give rise to the warring states period and everything that followstakechiyo HAD to stop him from dying or the timeline would have been completely fucked
>>733047835you have like 60% of the game left
>>733047754Ieyasu canonically had sunrays coming out of his bum.
>>733047913>odachi>sentry, gozuki>konogjishi>kato clan>lifeleech talisman (mermaid), regen talisman (nupeppo)>thunderbolt>hold y>winwhy is everyone complaining about this twink, he was one of the easiest bosses in the game
>>733047309>>733047384How is Bakumatsu in comparison to the version in RotR? I'm sure it's not three whole regions stitched together.My complaint about Sengoku is basically that it feels like the game wants me to fuck around for hours between missions because the recommended level for the Crucible was like 14 or something and they want me at 39 for an upcoming castle. I'm used to the sequential missions of the first two games.
>>733047849Hm. I should make mine look adequately.
>>733047924yeah the time traveler has ulterior motives but for the brother to just go "heh, till next time you old so and so" (cue the deaths of tens of thousands) was fucking stupid
>>733047849nioh never follows the timeline that correctly, like how either hideyoshi or ieyasu can fight at allor how chacha's child might have not been hideyoshi's at all (and yukimura's) but still died still birth
>>733043108ninja 2kat is better than tonfas for damage and the game has so many ways to kill ki its not hard to make up the difference. tonfas do zero damage even when the enemy has no kisamurai >axe > 1kat (basically only for sword of meditation) > 2kat = switchglaive = spearhavent played enough with cestus to make a real decision even though i used them a lot in nioh 2. the change to binds makes them feel a lot worse, and the buffering got a lot tighter too, you have to fully know and 100% commit to your combo before you do it, fluidity is totally dead because if you dont buffer in the first half of a move it wont count as "chaining" and you dont get the damage bonus stacksodachi just feels like garbage and regularly does less damage than 1kat on every move. moonlit snow fully charged with arts feels like it does less damage than iai strike, thunderbolt is sword of meditation but does literally zero damagethe sweep gimmick move people posted footage of in the first couple days is horrid and constantly struggles with tracking, midstance cant attack against block and lost charging bull for ki damage, all of the martial arts feel like they do less damage than any other weapon, it has no flow since so many of its finishers take SO MUCH KI and put you in really weird spots like ultra far away from the enemyi'm never where i want to be, and none of my moves do damage and they take so much ki, and i have none of these issues with other weapons, even axe
>>733048026bakumatsu is basically hallways between isolated dungeons and there's like 8 of them overall, pretty fun, lot of sidequests, lot of stuff to do
>>733047849And also closes the country setting Japan back 200+ years until Perry shows up with big black gunboats and forces them to reopen
>>733047894To Hide more cookies in.
>>733048078>thunderbolt is sword of meditation but does literally zero damageit does decent damage you just gotta get hit during it cascading wave hits hard too and is even faster to pull off
>>733048048>dumb younger brother arrogantly boasts even though he got carried hard by takechiyo; older brother just finds this amusing and lets him have his babyfiti dunno a younger brother acting too big for his britches is pretty fucking spot on for younger brothers>>733047894we may never knowmaybe its to hide his still stonkingly thick arms
>>733044227they have 90% DR if they arent attacking, its kind of annoying but they are weak if you can find ways to hit them without getting hit at the same time
>>733046479>>733046572Todo straight up doubles your hp (before bonuses) periodLike literally it's +100% hp regardless of your stats or clan rank, pic rel
I have no idea how to get the other caestus combo enders. I've done the high stance one multiple times but I have no idea how i'm getting it. I usually just get the multiple punch one.
>>733043851>>733044029Best oniI quit FGO when I did 400 rolls on her banner and got two Shutens but no Ibaraki
>>733048069all these colorful characters I couldn't care less about because the only interactions you have with most of them are them vomiting their backstory at you after you punch them enough
>>733048116now wait a second
>>733045708You don't. For some reason they had the great idea of making gunsticks no longer have their defining gimmick.
I don't care if Kunimatsu was being controlled, he deserves to get shot in the back of the head just for that fucking fight when you return to Edo after antiquity >>733047656I'm still going to call her Hiddy and I will keep gooning to her because I will make sure she doesn't become Shogun
>>733046181>freckles
>>733041204this guy's quest is kinda sad
>>733048078I love the odachi, but it does feel insanely ki hungry this time
>>733048538>lead him back to the shit bath>>please tell me he's not getting in>
>>733046181looks like a trap
>>733048443Gunsticks should've been the samurai tonfa weapon
>>733043694Blade twin final boss fight was so fucking annoying that I killed them without a second thought.
What's my last achievement likely to be? Completely all battle scrolls?
>>733048078You gotta spam Cascading Wave with Odachi
>we cant kill the villains that murdered millions because it will change the timeline>ignore the fact that Kyoto got hit by a fucking ice age and everyone there died that definitely won't change anything
>>733048683nioh time traveling is a self-fulfilling loop I thought
At what point do I stop leveling skill and start dumping into another stat
>>733045518Axe got a ki pulse move which is very nice, and a move where they attack while jumping back. So more mobility than ever. Also, it got the best crucible skills, a deflect followup that heals, and an extremely good new spinning charge that mogs mad spinner
>>733048683>End bloodlines like a motherfucker through several time periods>"Wait Ushi you can't kill your brother! He's too important and it will make me despawn!"
>>733048671Is there even an achievement for that this time
>>733048738Youre changing shit every time you go back to start of the game. The final boss should have been Hiruko in antiquity again to stop the story from occuring. Instead the only thing you are changing is Bakumatsu while the other two time periods are still fucked
>>733048747You'll need (almost) every stat to be 20 at a minimum so they'll be high enough to meet the stat requirements of some armor.May as well get Magic to 40 so you can equip the max amount of Yokai Cores.
>>733048771TIME PARADOX
>>733039620Baba cunny becomes your new mission control
>smashed thru the game 100% already >not sure if i want to ng+ or play something elseI kinda feel like I'd rather play ng again with restrictions rather than ng+ if I was going to do that but the poor enemy variety and open world make both options sound less appealingMaybe I'll wait for the DLC
>>733048771>some dirty shoemaker or rice stomper in kyoto dies>nothing changes in the grand scheme>the literal contending leader for the entire country who is destined to win and from whom takechiyo's entire bloodline will descend in power from because of the restructuring and organization and creation of a country that this leader will bring about once he becomes that leader, even if he does so by bloody warmongering means>if he dies without succeeding as history has said he would, the face of the country would be totally different and takechiyo may never have been born, or could have been born as a powerless peasant and thus wouldnt appear in the time traveling shenanigans because of a dispute over who becomes shogun between him and his brother at allcome on anon, youre smarter than this. C L E A R L Y some people are more impactful on history than others
HOW EARLY CAN I GET FISTS
>>733048974>Tengu midriff
>>733049048There's an NPC southeast of the first crucible that drops them sometimes. Otherwise, beat the first crucible
So how the fuck are you actually supposed to fight the sentries? Sometimes I do damage and sometimes I don’t
>>733049196they have 90% dr when they are not attackinghit them during attacks
>>73304874799
>>733044227Yeah, I feel like I have to grind some gear to get past this area smoothly. Esp the boss, who pretty much full taps my HP bar with even one part of his combo string.
1kat parries are so retarded.
>>733046457Settle down, honky
I think I might be done bros, my autism doesn't allow me to leave missions unfinished, but doing it a second time around was decently tiresome so I got demotivated early on in the 3rd cycle, I'll take a break with some other vidya and then move on to Nioh 3
>>733049048as soon as you start the game if have the infernal set preorder/deluxe bonus
>>733049196odachi thunderbolt works great
>>733049196The same way you kill the crabs or umibozu mini slimes. Use their elemental weakness and they just die, in this case it's lightning.
>>733048390Pff, ye, that game likes to spit in your face. I wanted Summer Kiyo, on rate up with summer Tamamo, got FUCKING THREE Tamamos, 0 Kiyohime. And another one on the rerun, and again, no Kiyo. Thanks for reminding me why I fucking quit that game.
>>733049278afrogun
>beat antiquity>oh look… its rise of the ronin… again… the game they just released…they really couldn’t have picked literally any other time period?
give me one good reason why i shouldn't replay 2
>subtitles say yokai>voices say ayakashi):<
you DID spare your brother... right?
>>733049534The white guy calls them demons
>>733049548i would have been hypocritical not to since chiyo stopped another brother murder earlier
>>733049534I want to know what spirit stones are, it's such a clunky term
>>733040131>#notallyokaiYou cannot relax around them. Take was right. You should always kill the ice waifu btw, she is a used good anyway.
>>733049657Reiseki.I don't remember what the new ones are called.>cruciniteI admit I cringed a little.
Tonfa bros just curious is demon dash fucking with mist/demon dance iframes? I feel like even what looks like frame perfect timing I'm still getting hit and never iframe through stuff.
>>733049534Himiko calls them aratama too
>>733049534>youkai gets translated as yokai>ayakashi gets translated as yokai>aratama gets translated as aratama (except when they translate it as yokai)>tanuki gets translated as dog (except when they leave it as tanuki)The localisers were all Chinese by the way
>>733049778Aratama are the friendly ones.
>>733049797Nigitama are friendly (unintuitive I know) Aratama are bad
>>733049791I wouldn't be even slightly surprised for one singular moment if 90% of the translation was done but chatsneedpt
If there was an easy mode that made you take half damage from everything, would you pick it?
>>733049848>nigitamayeah thats gonna be a tough one for a westerner like me to get used to. when i hear 'nig' my immediate reflex is to distance myself because whatever its followed by is usually dangerous both physically and socially
>>733049848Ah, right, my bad.
>>733049764I dont think mist has much if any iframes, same for ninja dash for that matter outside of the narrow window that actually triggers evade at the very start of it
>>733049948that's already nioh 3
>>733049948Its called going with the todo clan and taking the less damage while attacking stats
>>733049948I use Honda + barrier talisman + heavy armor when I want to turn my brain off.
>>733049948I genuinely don't think it would make too much difference with how damage is in this game, wouldn't make anything easier enough for journalists
>snake filter bossnot again
>>733049954that's why run is nigero in japanese
>>733049948i wouldnt enable it, though there were DEFINITELY bosses which i feel were reading my inputs or times when the game just did not perform an action when i pressed a button. however i wouldnt be opposed to its addition. i will take a game that is too easy over one that is too hard any day of the weekfaggots who screech and want high difficulty for no reason other than difficulty's sake are just that: faggots, and the ng+ features already provide that
>>733050019Todo is obviously bugged
>>733049948I want a hard mode for this game
>>733049948id just use a trainer and talk shit about how easy the game is
>>733050049>times when the game just did not perform an action when i pressed a buttonI get this near constantly with trying to use items
>>733050048kek
If there was a clan that doubled your hp no strings attached, would you join it?
>>733050003That's kind of annoying because demon dance is supposed to be by ingame text much longer iframes but you basically cannot move at all.
who else /toyotomi/?
>>733050019>only have 24 stamina to wear armor properly>get todo>hp literally doubles from 2k to 4kWhat the actual fuck
>>733049948I think this and other games like it would be improved overall if enemies dealt less damage with attacks but the player couldn't heal as much.
>>733049865Doubt it, paraphrasing:>the quality of that translation is so poor, I can only ascribe it to higher education. You have to have gone to college to make something that stupid
>>733050049>>733050087>start an attack>enemy starts a grab attack where the windup is shorter than your attack's execution and recovery period
>>733049948That's literally already in the game if you want it.
I really love this boss, I have such a fun tense fight each time.Also I thought soul cores didn't upgrade but hers has, the other two have A- scaling while this new core has A scaling.
Wait I'm looking at my damage stats, are martial arts considered strong attacks? That changes a lot of things in terms of what buffs to prioritize. Makes Sentry and Gozuki hands down the best soul cores for both defense and offense, also is gonna make me rethink my clan protection and set bonuses. Might want to squeeze in 3P Wayfarer
>>733050183In FROMGOD games bosses aren't slower than you and actually pressure you so healing is not free
>>733049657>I want to know what spirit stones areIt's amrita. Yes, spirit stones is a clunky term, but so is the translation of amrita, which means 'not-death'. Not-death can also mean immortal or deathless, but the etymology of 'spirit' means life force.Point is, that no matter how you translate it, it's an object that breaks the rules of mortality, and that's probably the best description you can give it.
This game looks good sometimes
>>733050635Wouldn't call input reading fair in any capacity.
>>733050674Is it safe for him to be so close to it, won't he turn into a yokai?
>>733050635I replayed Nioh 1's first two missions today after beating 3 yesterday cause I remembered it being so much harder and yeah it actually is just way harder, one way it's more challenging is that medicine is slower to use Enemy hitstuns a lot more brutal too you can't just dodge out of attacks the moment you take damage
>>733050105I dunno. BTW, what's the best clan for fists? The Ki damage one? Or the consecutive damage one.
Died more times to falling in the last open world than to the bosses until Okita. Squeezed out a win once and then lol fuck you there is another boss. Died with 5% boss hp left since it is somehow much easier than the first part. Can't beat the first part again. Didn't even get a gear upgrade this entire world.
>>733050793He is a noble, incorruptible man.
>>733050785You've got it all wrong, Elden Ring enemies simply mastered "pre-initiaitve"
>>733050796>Enemy hitstuns a lot more brutal too you can't just dodge out of attacks the moment you take damageWell yeah, because you literally cannot dodge while being hit. Instead you can just block and then immediately dodge to get the same effect. I'm pretty sure it still works that way in the other two games too, but I can't check 3 right now.
>>733051186I see, to further improve as a gaymer you need to think 3 steps ahead of the enemy, quite ingenious.
>>733038915Didn't bring every enemy from previous nioh and no william and hide cameoThey could also do a collaboration with ninja gaiden to boost sales but i guess they're retarded
>>733045596Hard to say. It really depends on the budget since so much stuff got reused from Nioh 2 and Rise of the Ronin. Open world games tend to be more expensive but this was a pretty restrained one as far as that went with it effectively being lanes connecting somewhat open areas instead of a massive circle. It's very obvious a lot of corners got cut visually and maybe that will pay off for them.
>>733048747I stopped at 70 because after that you only get +5 ninjutsu power, and started dumping stats on STR for more ki damage so I can break them easier.
That's my one complaint about these glorified hubs.>technically, you can go anywhere, but not reallyOn the first map at least you could go backwards in some levels. Here, not only is it painfully linear, only one of the three paths thorugh the level was available, because you need to go the other way first to get the guardian spirit required.I see no upside over the dungeon-like missions from the earlier entries.
>>733048443That doesnt seem right. I'm pretty sure the gun tonfa master fired them
>>733051582it's the same thing.
>>733051638It's a fucking waste of time and a stupid bait is what it is. If I wanted to play a pseudo metroidvania I'd go and play one.
>>733051582Heian's map is the worst of them, yeah.
>>733038915The complete lack of Kenshin in all 3 games is a fucking crime. I demand the 4th one's protagonist being Kenshin as compensation.
>>733042263What the fuck is agility a?
>>733051421We even go to Bakamatsu and there's just not even a nod to Rise of the Ronin its truly bizarreI just want the ultimate team ninja game with everything from all the other games yes even SOP
>>733051972but I hate marvelfaggotry
>>733051972>mfw my headcanon of ROTR being in Nioh timeline but all the amritas are gone and William just chilling in a cave being an immortal is destroyedThanks Team Ninja
Are there any stances for a particular weapon that you just hate?
>>733052138I dont want a literal multiverse game I just want them to use all their content, every game its the same deal "Its cool but the enemy variety is kind of bad"We have so many games of stuff they could use but elect not to, its maddening, instead we fight a ton of jailer oni and gakiI was losing my mind during the final mission when the game thought an appropriate encounter was literally one single skeleton warrior, or that the miniboss should be the first boss from Nioh 1, give me some real sauce
>>733043996It's level 50. Supposedly the message about killing revenants powering it up is wrong.
>>733049948>If there was an easy mode that made you take half damage from everything, would you pick it?>only 50%dude i'm already playing the easy mode where i take 78% less damage from everything lmao
>>733050629>are martial arts considered strong attacks?nothey are considered "melee" though
>>733052343they will make a grab spammer boss just for you
>>733051097>skipping the side quest that lets you fucking kill okita so he doesn't show up as part of a double fight lateri swear, do none of you retards do any side content?
>>733052253nu-splitstaff feels awfulheavy attack feels like an incomplete chain, doesnt feel good even with ebb and flownew light attacks are too fast and 3 hits isnt nearly enough, especially with only one multi hitheron strike and changing ways are the only skills you should use on it since the rest dont deal enough damage/ki to warrant using themninja in general has an awful time getting backstab damage to work
>>733051972There was already a game like that, kinda. Had william in it and ryu and a bunch of other shit.
>>733052253Low anything. I'll literally never use that stance on any weapon.
>>733052448>putting training wheels on your boss fightscouldnt be me
>>733051582I don't think you get a guardian spirit until you finish the act. You have to come back for that little section. You can get past that spot to the southwest instead.
>>733052253I detest low odachi but I'm forced to use it because some skills are locked into it.
So Kunimatsu takes on your ninja form and becomes your super spy disguised double if you spare him?
>>733051971It's fastgotta go fastso fast that you don't even need to evadejog out of the way of all attacks and make everything whiffalways be behind the enemy just by powerwalking back there
>>733052781yes
how does nioh 2 odachi work againbolting boar everything into the dirt > moonlit snow redux? that it? anything else i need to remember?
What's changed (mechanically) from nioh 2? I only by Nioh games from this company.
>>733052448It said it was the highest level part so I did it first. I went clockwise, so yeah missing the bottom right areas still. Good to know thanks. Was hoping to get rid of those annoying spikes blocking off places.
>>733051893thats an anime dude it didnt happen
>>733052781the cutscene is the same if you kill him meaning the ninja has always been another person
>>733052781yesGiven that he adopts the armor/custom armor appearance in that cutscene, I wonder if Kunimatsu will take on the character disguise if you have that active. Instead of your ninja form, he's running around looking like Fuku.
so what actually does happen if you kill him then
Has KT gone through some staff changes recently? their new shit is pretty fuckin raw
>>733052989he dies
>>733045596trash game made for casuals
>>733053024...people die if they are killed???
>>733052785It what, what the fuck are you even talking about?
>>733053053Takechiyo doesn't.
How's NG+?
dead game
>>733052996Yasuda's been promoted to head of Team Ninja (he directed RotR which is why he only produced Nioh 3) and Hayashi is now head of development at KT after Kou Shibusawa semi-retired.No idea if Yamagiwa is still even there though or not, they made a big deal about getting him when Sony closed Japan Studio and he was ever present during Wo Long's marketing but then he was only credited as a project manager on RotR and he's not even credited at all on Nioh 3. His Twitter's been dead for months as well so I'm wondering if he's left the company.
>>733052935Terrifying implications
>>733053180it flopped
Hiruko second phase too hard
>>733052884no more turning into a yokai for a special attack, you now have a guardian spirit attack + living weaponthere's a new form you can swap to called ninja mode where you have refillable ninjutsu (spells/shurikens/traps/utility etc). you dont need to worry about running out of consumables because they refresh constantly and you cant run out. you can choose to play in ninja for the entire game, you can choose to play as samurai for the entire game, or there are lots of builds that encourage you to swap between both. (you can do attacks on stance swap, or get ki back on stance swap, etc)besides that its open world, kinda mid open world. way too many trash enemies and not enough high level enemies
Man the odachi feels awful now
>>733053152kinda boringthe only things that give a tangible reward are lesser crucibles and spikes since they beef up your guardian spiritother than that everything remains complete on the checklist if you did it all in ng so there's like, 0 actual reason to explore anywhere again bosses have been a joke, once your build is finalized there's not really anything they can do to you, so you kinda just zoom through the mission stages, molest them then move onng+1 for me has>get to new era>collect all spikes and crucibles>run through the main quests ignoring the enemies just to kill the boss>repeat
>>733038915this game needed more challenging enemies, sadly i played nioh 1 and nioh 2 with the DLC and 5 NGs, it feels really shitty to play with only NG+2 max, i have no incentive to really grind a build or anything, just gonna put the game down. whenever the dlc drops i probably wont want to pick this game back up
>>733038915Nioh 2 > Nioh 3
>>733053303That just sounds exactly like 1 & 2 minus the crucibles.
>>73305339010/10 vs 9/10. Nioh 3 base game is better than Nioh 2 base game so it may reach Nioh 2's level with the DLC. All three games are amazing.
>once you finish the game it endsno way...............
>>733053273>living weapon returnsjoyful day.>besides that its open world, kinda mid open world. way too many trash enemies and not enough high level enemiesdo they expect you to farm these? or is it more quest based progression
>>733052467Are the Dynasty Warrior games any good?
Just beat the hag at the first crucible in my level 1 run. Being used to the mechanics after my normal run actually managed to beat her in my third attempt. Game is still pretty easy other than the bosses but not expecting a difficulty spike until the Heien era.
>>733053658https://www.nexusmods.com/nioh3/mods/51
Does newgame+ really not give more skill points/books? What is even the point?
>>733053682It's all the same shit, but if it tickles your particular brand of autism you'll like it. Some of the spinoffs like the Fist of the Northstar and first Zelda one are great.
>>733053658its kinda like the missions used to be, basically the "open world" is split up into zones that each individually feel like a nioh mission with stuff like kodamas, side paths to bosses etc. its not terrible but not great, i prefer nioh 1/2 style missions personallymy biggest criticism is too many low level enemies and its too easy, and im not a nioh pro or anything
>>733053682Those are an entirely different thing, like fighting hundreds of enemies that basically fall down.
>>733053180Easy game dont need to summon
Not my problem.
>>733051582Anon you can do Heian clockwise or counterclockwise.
>>733053297What's different with it? I didn't use it much in 2.
>>733053730Cant let you have too many broken skills like regenerate ki 10% faster when you clear a pool with a perfect ki pulse in low stance.
powerful
Unlocks all equipment transmog and lets Samurai and Ninja share transmog. Each feature can be toggled in the INI config.https://www.nexusmods.com/nioh3/mods/50GAME IS FUCKING SAVED
>>733053273>besides that its open world, kinda mid open world. way too many trash enemies and not enough high level enemiesThere aren't enough enemies in general, outside of bosses there are like 5 new enemies in the entire game, it's ridiculous how little they expanded on the enemy variety when it was already one of the biggest weaknesses for both of the previous games.
>>733054056>killed me 3 times>kill it>it has killed 0 playerswhy are all the online features brokenclan fights seemingly do fuck all either
Bros, I just beat act 2 should have killed his bro but alright and the veteran missions didn't unlock like the Adept missions didPlease tell me I don't have to clear act 3 to unlock them
>>733054165>clan fights seemingly do fuck all eitherThey haven't done the first result yet.
>>733054129I'm worried about this flagging something online
>>733054232Did you do the quests at the very very north of the map? Above the rest of the map.
how do you get a yasakani?
>>733054298Nope, thanks mate. Wouldn't have noticed,
Lord YASSS
So this game really was just a rehash of rise of the ronin.
>>733054232You have to beat the antiquity map and get to the final open world map before they unlock I think.
>>733053939Does no damage or ki damage while using all your ki
>>733054407Wo Long too. I'm sure all of 2 people that played it have noticed some things.
I've noticed that more than half of "visitors" are female avatars.
>>733054151there's definitely enough enemy types for me but i dont want to have to fight through 20 gaki and jailer oni in order to get 1 enki or something, even if you compare how many big enemies there were in like the second mission of nioh 2, it was like 5 enkis, 2 ippon-dataras, etc, it felt way more packed with threats
>>733054414fug :DDDD
>>733054790>fightFind an elevation and clear the entire section with a fucking bow. Proceed to the fun part.
>>733054249yes they have
>get a spirit that allows you to fly>still need the spirit that lets you walk on water to cross water>still need the spirit that lets you throw a hook to cross minor gaps
>>733054151>Tsura onna>Big headed farmer>Raiju>Yamainu>Jailer>Jailer big>Sand Baba>Nozuchi>Yokai cavalry>Mermaids>The things that look like Mogwai>the long neck yokai>Crucible WaspJust off the top of my head I can already name almost three times what you claimed. Why try to lie like that?
>>733054790TN spends the entire game pulling their punches for no real reason, even when they throw ippons at you they die in 3 hits because everything has less health and is seemingly balanced around group fights (that barely end up happening)
>>733054790I'm at the start of the Bakumatsu region and I feel like most of the elite Yokai have literally shown up less than 5 times. Meanwhile I must have killed a thousand jailers by now.
>>733054973my recommendation is thunderous calamity + the thing that gives you ninjutsu charge back when you get a kill with it, i just go around 1 shot zapping things for 5k damage and it refunds itself
Why are they old
>>733055153>the thing that gives you ninjutsu charge back when you get a kill with it,why the fuck does this not work for me
>>733055028stop trying to have fun the wrong way
>>733055094yup thats the whole game, constant dwellers, gaki and jailer oni
What was the point of that mission where you kill a bunch of female yokai bosses at the red district level? When it ended with that "The real hell is being a woman and dealing with men bla bla" I just rolled my eyes. That shit was so out of place.
>>733055158the passage of time
>>733055215woke game
>>733055207its pretty gay with multi-hit things like enhanced sharpnel bomb, and it wont count if its from a lingering fire effect on the ground or something, it has to be the direct killing blow, that's why i like thunderous calamity specifically since its just a fast single instance of damage
>those demons that are patrolling the street in the whore district>those are the only enemies in the game that function that waySo much wasted potential.
>>733055280i have it equippedi send a gaki to the shadow realm with iti do not get a refundthis shit is straight up bugged
What the fuck was his problem?
>>733055272I'm not bitching about "muh woke" or anything. I'm not one of these retards. It was just really fucking weird and out of nowhere. And even if the point was some woke girl power bullshit you just made a mission where I beat the fuck out of a bunch of "women".
>>733039620In every game he manages to capture the essence of an old man rambling on too long about shit you already know.
gimme your coolest armors
Can you get Yoshitsune's armor?
>>733055418Yes. He drops the smithing text from the scroll battle with him. It took me about 70 wins to get it.
>no stupid demon modeAt last, it's Tengen Kujaku time.
>>733055215Because women did infact have shit lives in the past, especially so for ones who worked in places like that or as concubines for nobility. Having shit lives and people taking advantage of you makes you a prime target for becoming a yokai.
>>733055379makes you wonder why they didn't just have your marketable dog spirit talk and be your exposition guy, Saoirse talked to William
>>733055313what ninjutsu are you using. like for example it cant be the explosion from a fire shuirken, it has to be the shuriken itself
>>733055158I miss Hanzo speaking engrish with Wirriam.
>>733055540the calamitiesthe wind one, the thunder one, the water oneeven if i kill something with any one of them, the restock skill does not work for me
>>733055467>It took me about 70 wins to get it.
>>733055349He returned home and saw it became India.
>>733055496That wasn't exclusive to women.
>>733055480Wrong image...
>>733055215It isn't out of place. Women complaining, making a mountain out of a molehill is the joke itself. Karens are multicultural.
>>733055692No shit.
>>733055692And that's supposed to excuse how they were treated like shit?
>>733055467>>733055647>No dedicated farming spirit to help ease the grind...Itokuri my beloved. Matsunaga Hisahide was right fucking there too.
>>733055215The game is teaching you how to silence them.
>>733055692damn, guess all the other yokai in the game were women too
>>733055931i got your farming spirit right here
>>733055931Increasing luck means fuck all in the Nioh games. Someone here modded 100% luck in Nioh 2 to get enemy skills, and it still took them several attempts until they got what they wanted.
>>733055931I liked it just for the skill. It was cool. This and Aya kmori.
>>733052393Are the damage stats in my records wrong thenIt seems weak attacks + strong attacks adds up to total damage, and my martial arts damage should be highest but it's less than strong attacks, but with the sum of strong attacks, weak attacks, and martial arts way more than the total damage I've done for Samurai
>>733056036But the online...!
>>733055931>No dedicated farming spirit to help ease the grindninja has a spirit that gives 60 luck
>>733055574I wonder what they're gonna do that william adams is not only not a protestant, but was hunted down by the those monotheist for being a pagan irishboy
Is there any incentive to do everything again in NG+? Since there are no more kodamas, chijikos, etc. to find.
What's this Naotora incident about?
>>733056358>schizobabble
Anyway to make ninjutsu not hit like a wet noodle? I had a really OP kunai build in Nioh 1, but Nioh 3 ninjutsu sucks ass.
>>733056445bathing
>>733056471I just use it to apply two elemental debuffs and get the confusion damage bonus.
will mommy be in the dlcs?
>>733056135>Increasing luck means fuck all in the Nioh gamesNo? It's mandatory for grinding. Luck affects Rarity of dropped items, not the drop rate. If you want smithing texts you need to increase Item Drop Rate, the others are obvious on their own.
what is the best way of farming yasakani? just beat ng. asked last thread but nobody knows
>>733051972>he didn't get gonzo's swordBro....
>>733056401Same incentive as always, iust fighting bosses for the sake of it and trying out new builds for no reason.
>>733056471elemental debuff stacking for confusion, you can have multiple levels of confusion if you go to 3+ now dont do it its way too powerful
this oni cant catch a break
>>733056754People were farming the 3 blue guys in the last stageBut I just went ahead and blitz'd through NG+ so I could get my yasakani>>733057030It's powerful but it's hard for non onmyo/elemental jutsu builds to do it it feels likeninja 2kat can basically apply wind instantly but every other weapon gets no such expediency and most guardian spirit skills don't accumulate for shit.
>>733056513I did all the hot springs already though, I never missed any of them during a mission.
>>733057169Most relevant bosses resist 2 element anyway.
>want to do a ninjutsu/omnyo only run>have to collect everything again including skills and skill capacityI won't do another run
>>733057212you have to bathe in the one in 200 with himiko then replay the temple with II Naotora and bathe with her
>>733057282>have to replay a mission you already did
>>733057334the first time you did it you hadnt bathed with her 1400 years ago
>>733038915Why is this the battle in the Shogun 2 intro cinematic? Why these two when they didn't even win the setting?
tfw the revolver gun ninja dude's weapon set is not in the dlc
>>733056471>Anyway to make ninjutsu not hit like a wet noodle?i am not meming, i am being 100% seriousninja damage is based on your weapon damage your highest damage weapon is no weapongo unarmed, go completely nakedequip unarmed death skilluse talisman of fist and carnage talismanyour ninjutsu should now be hitting for about 10x harder than you're used to
>>733056754final mission of ngget to the 2nd to last buddha shrine, next to a nurikabe and the room with like 5 guys in there literally just max out equip drop rate and luck and walk into the room and spam demon of envy hellfire / other hell spells to nuke the room, then walk back to the shrine 2 seconds away, reset and repeatuse ninja mode and the sohaya set for +100 luck in crucible (which this mission is) + ho? or oh? one of them, guardian spirit that has like 60 luck on itforge equip drop rate onto all your gearshould take you like 20 mins of grindingi have about 55% equip drop rate and 255 luck and could kill all the guys in the room with hellfire alone easy enough but the wind and shock ones are good for stragglers
>>733057258my brother in christ just use loadouts and play ng+ as your ninja magic build
So I just finished the game and got the last achievement. I don't feel like doing NG+ yet but are there any hidden missions anywhere before I shelf this game?
I can't play night reign alongside this. I keep pressing square when that's for healing in that game...
I'm thinking of learning 1kat for my NG+ playthrough, curious what what I'm generally looking to be doing in combat since1kat has a million different options.
>>733057971severing spin and reverse impact
>>733057971Crazy parries.
>Finish the game>Take a look at the titlesJesus Christ.
>>733043771With faster rainbow ruse you can actually get midair attacks out before you land.That's about it
>>733057971frost moon
Is there any way to farm for this or get the text?
>kick Takeda Shingen's ass>he just walks away>TWICE
Im almost at the end of Bakimatsu map. I can already feel they will add William fight as part of DLC1, and maybe something about Nobunaga. DLC2 will be Hide
>>733058561You beat him in a theological debate about seeking immortality twice, only you did it with your fists instead of your words.
>>733058561The first time is super retarded. He's literally down on the ground 5 feet away from you and then you just turn your back to him and start walking away for some reason.
>>733058285That's kind of dope. If it works with the faster style change, that means spear has, by far, the fastest access to a quick change since it can do it from any action and air style changes have less recovery than grounded ones.
>>733056203still works
Which of the Nioh protags has the most impressive feats?
It's kind of lame that enemies have stacking resistances against debuff, I just want to make a poison build, but it becomes harder to reapply the poison debuff more than 3 times in a single fight.This especially sucks against yokai enemies since they reset their debuffs when they switch between their regular and yokai realm mode.
I don't know what second ninja weapon to use at all.
>>733058561>TWICE mentioned https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0p1bmr0EmE
>>733058768william since he survived the tokugawas.also on a side note, where the fuck was william during all of nioh 3? i thought the entire point of him coming back to japan in the dlcs was to stop people from using amrita but its still being used up to the 1800s. did he just fuck off to be a family man?
>>733058826poisons still pretty good, the hardest enemies are human and dont clear it anyway
>>733058826Debuff resistance eventually decays
>>733058826poison breath does so much accumulation and you can get bonus accumulation from ninja skills that you will never fail to apply it if you have all the charges, before the enemy is dead
>>733058887He's dead
>>733058768>>733058887It's Hide obviously. They not only beat William, but also killed two of the strongest known yokais solo and a super mega buffed Super Saiyan one of them.
>>733058768Hide got up to some insane shit. Helped Nobunaga and Hideyoshi rise to power, beat several of the most famous yokai, absorbed all the most evil shit in Japan unto themselves and proceeded to beat its ass. Takechiyo meets Daidara Bochi and approaches it by running for cover and looking for a way to calm it down. Hide meets Daidara Bochi after already fighting a battle and proceeds to turn it into gravel.
>>733054026Yeah those are an issue as well. A lot of them are balanced against not having it. Got a new end game ninjutsu and it has 1 use, so how is that better than the one I started with that has 10?
So I finished Nioh 3 and here are my thoughts. It's the worst in the trilogy in both gameplay and story. I really enjoy ninja gameplay but it does not feel right or balanced in Nioh. Ninja simply just trivializes every fight and is clearly not balanced for this type of game. Now for the story, I can't say I was a fan. All the disjointed time travel failed at delivering a compelling narrative. I absolutely loved the taiga drama kino of 1 and 2 but 3 had none of that essence in it. It felt so hollow simply as an excuse to reuse assets. Which goes onto my next issue with the game, massive asset reuse. As I've seen other people point out, Nioh 3 is the ultimate team ninja rpg that takes stuff from everything from Wo Dong, SoP, and RotR. Some or it works, others don't. They really should have just doubled down on the samurai gameplay for 3, ninja splitting so much of the core of Nioh will forever taint this game. Now I wouldn't say Nioh 3 is bad, it's just most likely not the Nioh game we were expecting after playing 2. I would recommend this game still but I'm certainly not sticking around for that NG+ grind unless the DLCs make it fun.
>>733058667Yoritomo is even worse given that you beat him up and have him lying winded on the ground talking at you for a minute before he then runs away. At least with Shingen you deliberately let him go to focus on the crucible (only to then go fight him immediately afterwards), with Yoritomo you let him escape for no reason.
>>733054232Next act is like 20 minutes max.
So how does Wo Long compare to Nioh 3? I skipped it cause I heard the performance was complete shit and my PC at the time was a toaster.
>>733059560How is it worse in gameplay? Wtf are you smoking?
>>733059686because ninjutsu op (which definitely wasn't the case in 1 or 2 lol)
>>733059560Agreed all around>>733059685Worse
>>733057971you know the odachi tank build that thunderbolts with 78% damage reductionit turns out...you can also hold y with 1kat to use SWORD OF MEDITATION to get the same result!
>>733058180>beat ze game FIVE MORE TIMESno team ninja i will not
>>733059686because the introduction of ninja is a massive negative when it comes to the core combat of these types of games. Why play samurai when you can just play ninja and jump off the bosses head for the entire fight while they cant hit you? It's inherently broken and these fights were not balanced around having the player being in the air nearly 100% of the fight.
>>733059685i liked it enough for a full playthrough plus DLCs. i didnt get very far in NG+ but when i came back to it after a bunch of updates that made martial arts better and the magic system better it was funyou REALLY gotta love the parry system in it to like it though, if you dont have much fun with that then you will hate the game, it is 95% of the core gameplayi hope KT brings the whip from wo long to nioh 3 DLC
>>733059686also forgot to add the weapon splits that ninja brought, it divided up content for no real reason. a lot of weapons being relegated to ninja with no stances is a valid complaint and samurai players got fucked over by a terrible design decision.
