I miss him bros...
>>733675476I can't believe he doesn't show up at all in 3. Wtf
>>733675559Bro's been dead for like a century by the time the game takes place. >b-but you go back to the Sengoku era...Yea before he washed up. He gets mentioned a bunch.
When did you get your first Yasakani Magatama? Did it have good stats?
>>733675559Just let him rest lil bro
>>733675687I farmed the vassals in the first playthrough A Sinister End for 20ish minutes immediately after beating the game. Stats were meh, but it was a pleasant surprise
>>733675687about 5 hours after beating the final boss and no because it had grace of hachiman
>>733675698>points at youblacklmfaoooooooooo
>>733675476https://youtu.be/P22TEf4pZZs
Why does he carry two swords? Does he lose them often?
How many sources of untouched omnyo do we have aside from the guardian spirit? I feel like none of the armor sets have it
I miss the onyudo, they were fun to fight and I'm surprised they got rid of them.
>>733675659>Bro's been dead for like a century by the time the game takes place.But Hanzo is still around?
>>733675476Have been fucking around in NG+. Pretty fun but I don't feel like progressing as much as I did in 1 and 2 on NG+ onwards. Will just get better with the combat and make some videos or something. Great game overall, looking forward to that dlc. Especially if it adds mechanics to respawn individual bosses in the open field.
>>733675687I got one and I didn't even notice it (the stats were abysmal). After I noticed I actually got one I put it as my Sudama blessing and I'm still in the mines for the perfect stat drop after 20+ yasakanis for both styles
>>733675971Aren't the Onyudo the big dudes with the ball&chain on each hand?
>>733675476>'ELLO POPPET! GUVNA TOOK ME WEE CUNNY FISH, CHEEKY BLOKE GOT ME PLENTY BLOODY KNACKERED I TELL YA>bongs really think William is like this
>>733676052>onyudoThey're the freaky monks
>>733675559>>733675476He was mentioned multiple times. Also he did not appear in 2 until the DLC from what I remember. Keep that in mind. We do not have any DLC yet. He very well could be in 3 DLC.
>>733676204> Also he did not appear in 2 until the DLC from what I remember.You remember wrong. The entire ending segment of the base game involved William
>>733676204he was in the main story, he's the one waking Hide up after the time skip, you even had a brief fight with him
>>733675839Samurai generally carried at least 2 swords: the the katana and the wakizashi, each with different specific uses.
>>733676052Onryoki
>>733675476Is the copy-paste in 3 as bad as the first game?
>>733676052That's onryoki, the boss from the boat in Nioh 1.
>>733676009Anon...
>>733676325one for yokai and the other for humans?
>>733675971All Yokai's are tied to some Onmyo item, so they probably had no item. It's really boggling how they now have this many enemies, which is a must for soulslike, and yet they just use Gakis and Jailers. Also jailers have nothing special, completely unmemorable.
>>733675659He's still alive and kicking in bakumatsu period in rise of the ronin
>>733676383anyone who seethes at developers using their created assets amongst their games automatically reveals themselves as retarded secondary zoomlets.
>>733676383Therr ar very few new enemies in 3 and the new ones are not very good.
>>733676407Not quite kekWakizashi was shorter and was for close quarters or indoor fighting where a katana would be unwieldy, and katana was for when outdoor fighting led to range giving them an advantage.
>>733676401He's Takechiyo's ninja trainer wasn't he?
>>733676491How so?
>>733676625Anon...
Overall I would say despite the problems Nioh 3 has, it's still a good game. I'd play a Nioh 4.
my wife and I havin’ a blast
>>733676491Nioh 3 literally does not use enough preexisting assets.It's the same 5-6 Yokai in every fucking map.There are a fucking ton of unused enemies and bosses that are just absent. 2 planned dlcs instead of 3.No wirriam.No hide.Guess they spent 6 years making one big open map.
>>733676204>Also he did not appear in 2 until the DLC from what I remember.So you didn't play 2.
>>733676649>A ninja serving the Tokugawa family. His real name is Masanari.The name “Hanzo” is a hereditary title passed down through generations of ninja leaders from Iga Province (present-day western Mie Prefecture), inherited from his father, Masanari. Oh okay, so he's a different Hanzo than the one in Nioh 1 and 2.
>>733676687This. I was skeptical of the new systems and open world but honestly it all comes together for a very fun game even if it's not as good as 2.
>>733676052no, retard. they're the big black niggas with the long tongues
>>733676759No, anon, I just don't remember so good. I didn't remember he was in the main game in 2 as the others pointed out he is.
>>733676756This is my main issue with it. I don't want to fight shitass wasps, jailers, gaki or skeleton warriors a billion times when we have so many interesting yokai from previous games. Until the final bakumatsu act there were a total of 2 karasu tengus and neither of which you can fight again.
>>733675559He died two years prior to the game in Nagasaki while the shogunate is in Edo anon
How to ruin a scenehttps://litter.catbox.moe/z2o0396uxn6s1x0r.jpg
>>733676761The Hanzo in 3 is the same guy we had in Nioh 1. He specifically tells you that you remind him of a certain blue eyed samurai
>>733676756I played the game anon, you cant bullshit me. theres plenty of new enemies and new variations of ones from previous games. a disingenuous nigger like you probably lumps all versions of jailer as one enemy when in fact they have different attacks and elemental properties. now is Nioh 3 easier than previous games? yea I guess it is, specially if someone has hundreds of hours of experience from previous games. all though, still had a lot of fun and highly enjoyed playing through this new title.
>>733676953Man those tits don't even look good.
>>733677026the other nude option looks way too small
>>733675559He's going to show up as the twist villain in the dlc as the one behind the Christian uprising.
>>733676986Jailer oni are trash anon. Also nioh 3 is flat out easy by any metric.
>>733675659>>733676904>BUT BUT BUT MUH LOREminamoto no yoshitsune died irl in 1189 on the same day as benkei, yet in nioh 3, he's alive and well in 1190. try again, antiwhite faggots
>>733677069Why in the FUCK would William be behind that? He was one of the people that wanted christians out of Japan
>>733676953Ngl, that looks fucking terrible. Looks more like a blow-up doll than an IRL woman's tits.
>>733677197Yokai possession again. You'll beat the yokai out of him and will be so repetent about what he did that he will force Christians out of Japan himself.
>>733676810I agree. I think people do need to accept that the latest game in a series will not always be the best. Changes will be made to try to keep the game fresh which are needed for the series to not be stale. And those changes may not always be refined to the maximum.The open "field" design as the devs call it was a change that meant some of what they refined in 2 wouldn't be doable in 3. The ninja class addition could lead to balance issues because they didn't have a huge bedrock of testing of how it would play beyond internal testers and external alpha/beta testers. The desire to cover more time periods could've rubbed people the wrong way. The level design for Heian, for example, for me did not hit.But to keep the series from stagnating, I accept that they need to mix it up so some of these parts that are inferior to Nioh 2 were a part of that process. Hopefully they will refine them for Nioh 4 if they decide to keep going.
>>733677197>>733677347they could always bring back that no personality having ass necromancer from 2. but i really hope not
Isn't William alive in RotR as a secret boss? Maybe he's immortal now
>>733677347>>733677419I love William as much as the next guy but just let him be at this point. Even the Nioh 2 cameo was reaching (in my humble opinion)
>>733677478Are we sure RotR is canon to Nioh? It could just be a fun reference, not meant to really be canon to either game
>>733676687>>733676810I don't think it's plausible for a bad Nioh game to even be made. Its core gameplay and overall identity uniquely satisfies a specific niche of autists. It would take a concentrated effort to break that down which would be called out anyway.
>>733676972No I mean if it's been a century since William died how is Hanzo still around?
>>733677538>Are we sure RotR is canon to Nioh?It's very obviously not.
nioh 3 didnt quite land like 2 did, i already discarded it and moved on to another game after completing ng, kinda sad about it.
>>733676476That was just a random weeb but some blade asshole killed him to steal his fighting style.
>>733677530I just don't find playing as [insert japanese history man] in [insert japanese history event+demons] as interesting as the foreigner in a strange and deadly mystical world thing that William offered
>>733677530To be fair he still had a beef with Maria who ran away at the end of Nioh DLC, so his appearance in 2 trying to find her is completely justified.
>>733677595They were both quite young when Ieyasu was still alive > Hanzo is an old man when Ieyasu's grandson is young > make sense
>>733675687Got two of them in NG+ during the Bakumatsu crucible mission with Yoshi fish shoes.
>>733677842>so his appearance in 2 trying to find her is completely justified>ahhh yes this evil amrita witch that I have been hunting, let's just grab her by the arm and send her back to SpainIt was fucking retarded
Holy fuck, this game is so damn badly coded that turning off dynamic resolution and dynamic fps stabilized my framerate even though you'd think they would help your framerate.
>>733677571Yeah Nioh 3 is still recognizable as Nioh despite the fact that it's easier than 1 or 2 and thus it still is enjoyable. They would have to remove or fundamentally simplify the Samurai class to lose the heart of Nioh. And even ninja contains a decent amount of aspects of Nioh 1-2's gameplay style even if ki pulsing isn't necessary and it doesn't have high/mid/low stance.
>>733677595William Adams died around the "present" time (~1620) of Nioh 3 before all the time faggotry.Hanzo, your ninja trainer, is the same Hanzo in Nioh 1.Hanzo with a spear is the earlier Hanzo, he was the Hanzo in most of 2 and the big ninja frog in 1.
>>733677731you were fine with darks souls being [generic knight guy] in [generic medieval europe fantasy land] though
>>733677924This. The Maria part was so fucking stupid I was speechless. She deserved to be a full on villain in a future game, not a footnote at the end of completely unrelated events because they forgot they left her story open ended.
>bathes in shit>refuses to elaborate>dies
>>733677924Hey, I never said that I wasn't disappointed either at the conclusion of their story
>>733677936Dynamic framerate is always bad as it leads to stutters which are noticeable. Zelda OoT runs at _20_ FPS yet feels like it runs at 30 because it's a rock solid 20 FPS.Dynamic resolution can be bad because the game is always calculating or miscalculating what res you should be at given performance it's seeing. Technically its always best for you to manually go in, know based on testing what your system can handle and set it
>>733678038Nigger who the FUCK is talking about Souls you schizo
Am I the only Anon to be still using the kusarigama in NG+? I used it to clear the Depths in Nioh 2 as well.
>>733678038The mc in Demon's and Dark souls isn't that generic. I mean, they're ghosts and ghouls.
>>733678119>tries to change the subjectlmao
>>733678057That was a weird quest
>>733677987ok, thanks for the clarification
>>733678123i've seen plenty of kusa revenants, despite 2fags saying it's "worse"
>>733678148What are you even on about? You brought up something completely unrelated and are acting smug because I pointed out you're being a schizo. Don't reply to me again you pathetic faggot
I enjoy 3 a lot less than 2 but mainly because of fatigue after wo long and rotr, while 2 corrected 1 so well it felt fresh at the timeAlso i never complained about story in these games but 3 really makes me wish there was an arcade mode to go through the game without the lazy drama and spirits yapping
>>733678041>what is your plan>ask this Hideyoshi dude to raise hell for me nicely so we can collect all the amrita>what if he says no? you know like how Kelley failed with Nobunigga>.......Man she really was written like a retard.
>>733677936The wackiest thing still has to be the slowmo whenever your fps isn't divisible by 30.
>>733677936There is something extremely fucky with how the game needs to simultaneously process levels, entities, animations, collisions, shaders and particles. It very often results in dropped and delayed inputs even at stable framerate.
>>733678123Kusa seemed rather nerfed to me in 3 but I didnt try it too much. The real question is is it fun for you? Because if it is then there's no reason to stop using it. Nor does it matter if other people arent using it. I'd support people using switchstaffs in 3 if they enjoy it.
>>733675476They could have a DLC with his son or grandson (they even mentioned he has a kid with Okatsu and you rescue him in 2) and a fight where you can get his armor, much like how you can get the Hayabusa gear/izuna drop from the Hayabusa clan members.
>>733678290*splitstaff
Why is Kurama Tengu's guardian skill so slow?
>>733675559Wait for the DLC. He'll show up as the final boss in DLC 3 and it'll be as kino as Jack Garland being the final boss in SoP's final DLC was.
How fucking cracked is the Hayabusa ninja set going to be, realistically?
>>733678495>DLC 3.Meant DLC2
>>733678438It's made to specialize in aerial usage. Jump before it if you want it to come out quicker. It works great with weapons that have a strong aerial focus like ninja 2kat.
>>733678290>The real question is is it fun for you?Yes, that's why I haven't stopped using it. The generic light and heavy attacks are pretty good/fast but the martial arts aren't as fast compared to other ninja weapons
>>733675476>foreigner main character based off a real person in history>shoehorned into real world historical scenarios>meets and fights (and wins against) real historical japanese figures>overly inflated importance to make them into a hero figure celebrated by everyone they run into>yet one is beloved and a mainstay of their series while the other was mocked and derided to the point where people boycotted the game leading to the company's demiseWilliamfags are just racist, plain and simple.
>>733678495William will appear in the final DLC of Nioh 3 and be introduced with the line "Kept you waiting, huh?"
>>733678223>Don't reply to me again you pathetic faggoti accept your concession
>>733678659But Yasuke is unironically cool and beloved in Nioh as the Obsidian Samurai so this makes no sense. People can smell insincerity from a million yards away and Shadows reeked of it
>>733678659Here is the difference anon: Nioh is made by Japanese people. They are allowed to make a game like this. It isn't disrespectful to them, because they are the ones making it and have chosen to feature William heavily. Shadows was made by westerners.
>>733678659Yes, so?
>>733678804I don't remember him doing much other than being a boss fight desu. Also he dropped a cool armor set and gave you a ghost bear so better than the gay nigger version from AC shadows at least
>>733678659well, one of these games was made about japan by japanese people who had good intentions and wanted to show the audience something cool. the other game was created solely to push an agendanot to mention yasuke was in nioh 1 and 2 and nobody minded
>>733678659Did we even play the same game anon? William beats up a bunch of historical figures yeah, he beats up Yasuke too. But as soon as it gets to the one historical figure Japan gives a shit about. Nobunaga, you're only allowed to get him to 25% HP, before he kicks your ass in a cutscene and dips in the main story.
>>733678659The Nioh depiction of Yasuke was great. The Obsidian Samurai, protecting his lord Nobunaga even after he knew he was dead
>>733677595That other anon is an idiot, the “present” of Nioh 3 (when tutorial takes place) is not that long after Nioh 1, William helps your grandpa take power. The Hanzo in tutorial is same Hanzo as Nioh 1. The Hanzo you meet in Warring States era is the Nioh 2 Hanzo, who turned into a Giant Toad (pronounced “Giant Toad”) sometime before Nioh 1.
>>733678881in 1 he was protecting Nobunaga's grave and William fights himin 2 at Honnouji he told Hide to chase after Akechi while he holds the line and protect Nobunaga's corpse
>>733678812So was Ghost of Tsushima.
>>733675476https://youtu.be/RQbPQ8MweqI?si=QfIJvo_OH42TD9ZW
>>733678534Does Ninja have a claw focused set currently? I know Samurai has Demon Hunter for fists.
>>733675476I actually started Nioh 1 a few days ago. Currently getting filtered in the one mission where you're running through a bunch of basements with Amrita Demons and the red slimes that shoot paralyzing weapons show up. Having fun though it feels like the weapon balance in this game is a bit dubious. Sword and 2 Sword feel really strong along with Tonfas. Odachi seems ok, the rest either feel too slow and leave you vulnerable for too long without having the damage be worth it. For example the Axe feels weaker than Odachi despite the swings being slower and having less range while also having less skills available, and I have no clue what I'm supposed to be doing with the Spear since all the skills for it seem to take way too long to do, though the regular attacks are fine. Been swapping around to whatever weapon drops are the highest level atm and it seems to get me more samurai points for it but I've noticed the game gets much easier to handle when I'm just using some sword variation
>>733679062>That other anon is an idiotHow am I an idiot for saying the same thing you said?
Yayoi period DLC when? Jomon period DLC when? Kofun period DLC when?
After trying my best to enjoy the splitstaff, I can honestly say it is a pure downgrade from 2. Genuinely, what the fuck were they thinking? Why is it so goddamn ass? FUUUUU
>>733675687i got 2 from somewhere and noticed several hours later when i got a third one in ng+ takeda boss rush
>>733679504Actual Yamatai region when? We were fucking ROBBED
>>733679517>Genuinely, what the fuck were they thinking?They weren't.
>>733679614This. It's criminal that we get a very unique era and it's relegated to a really big corridor while they reskin ROTR into Nioh.
>That low stance caestus idle animation.Good shit. Is that the only stance that has animation like that? All the other stances I've seen are static.
>>733679614Antiquity was gorgeous, imagine if we got more of that overgrown vertical forest area. What a waste
>>733679517The Ki damage was even nerfed in the launch patch for some fucking reason as well
I'm up to the kyoto crucible, is there much left?
>>733679765I think tonfa have this boxer-like stance where they bop around a bit.
>>733679725>>733679819The saddest part is that I was actually looking forward to the antiquity era the most
>>733675476I think Wirriams day as a playable character are over but I would be shocked if he or even his son Joseph didn't make an appearance considering what the dlc is going to be about.
>>733679891Same anon, I was looking forward for more funky looking armor
Is sinister tyrant really that good?
>>733678659William is one of the most important and influential foreigners in Japanese history and his impact on the country is so significant he could reasonably be attributed as a primary reason for Japan's isolationist but pro-Dutch policy for the entire Edo period. Yasuke is a footnote.
Wirriam should be in DOA7 using the fist kit as his moveset
>Every famous Japanese woman is the same womanWhy is this?
>>733680170Yasuke isn't even a footnote. He's a "source needed"The only guy who wrote about him was a known fabricator, and Nobunaga, famous for writing every little thing that came to mind never once wrote a sentence about him.

>>733680170William was a real guy?
>>733680571He was quite literally the first weeaboo
>>733680571Just about every character and concept in the Nioh games are based on real people and events, dumbdumb.
>>733680413Take the Dempsey Roll pill
>>733676687I think this is where I've landed as well. There are parts of the open world that isn't my favourite, and I think ninja screwing over the pre-nioh 3 enemies and (some) bosses is a little overkill in NG, but it's still a really fun combat system. Better they tried something new than just re-doing what they did before
>>733675476Geralt?
>>733680615>>733680754Never played the games, just came here to check what nioh 3 is about
>>733680571Wirriam is based on William Adams.
>>733680761How the fuck are you not draining stamina?
>>733680791trying out coop and its making my game chug really fucking hardswitching back to 30fps with framegen until they patch it again if i'm gonna do multiplayer. this shit is also just a huge clusterfuck and i cant tell anything that's going on 100% of the time. hiruko was just all flashing lights the entire time>>733680857filling up the cum gauge in samurai mode lets you do martial arts and heavy attacks with bonus damage and no ki cost
>>733680857Probably magic or ninja buff.
>>733680791Well Nioh 3 is about Togukawa Iemitsu (a historical shogun) traveling through time and learning what real brotherhood is
>>733680571>William was a real guy?Yes.
>>733680857Skills have no ki consumption when Arts Proficiency is active.
>>733676953coomers don't understand basic anatomy
>>733680419I would put William and Joosten on the same level of significance. But William is probably liked a bit more for how much he assimilated into Japanese culture. Adams went full weeaboo, had Japanese kids, and refused to go back to England, whereas Joosten wanted to go back to the Netherlands so bad that it led to his death.
>>733680571His story IRL was way more messed up. Ieyasu forbid him from leaving Japan and forcibly recruited him. He lost his original family in England and had to start a new one. He died 20 years later in Nagasaki.
>>733680912>filling up the cum gauge in samurai mode lets you do martial arts and heavy attacks with bonus damage and no ki costI know but I didn't think it would last infinitely for that odachi move since its supposed to be until you stamina runs out.
>>733681093anon the webm is a 2 second loop
>>733681093all of the infinite moves last for a limited duration, but the webm is looping
>>733678659you should stop trying to see any kind of logic in these 'debates' and see it more as a(n extremely disingenuous fight) for who gets represented.
>>733680992>>733680912>and no ki cost
>>733681162nope, the switchglaive heavy hold is infinite, bug probably
>>733681215Yeah?
>>733681227defo a bug, water swords and random slices both last for like 2 seconds during cum gauge
>>733680419>People always forget about my nigga JoostenHe was figured out when the samurai put the letter 'I' inbetween 'E' and 'N', so went 'home'.
>>733681251Skills clearly still cost ki when arts is active
>>733681093For all of the "until you run out of ki" moves, they have a fixed duration / number of attacks.You can do the Odachi Sweep nine times before you'd have to restart.
>>733681325No they don'tt. Fists
>>733681325not for me nigga
>>733681078Supposedly, someone actually eventually offered him a trip back to England, but William refused. I think he knew where the grass was greener.
>>733681325first one is free
>>733675476Is she in?
>>733681669I'm sorry anon... There is like 5 guardian spirits total.

>>733681078>His story IRL was way more messed up. Ieyasu forbid him from leaving Japan and forcibly recruited him. He lost his original family in England and had to start a new oneYup. Ieyasu made William a samurai to imprison him in Japan. That's the power of feudalism for ya. Pissed the Portuguese right off because they couldn't swindle Ieyasu with William being his western adviser.
>>733682312Instead we got the best one again!
>>733682312>thirdwhat do you mean by that? senji tome is the blacksmith in the first two nioh games.
>>733682416It's Senji Toyo in Nioh 2 and 3. She's a lot more assertive than Tome personality wise.
>>733682416Senji Tome was the blacksmith in Nioh 1. Senji Toyo was the one in Nioh 2
>>733682372I mean I don't hate her, it's just that it would be cool if each protag has their own personal blacksmith
>>733675659>Bro's been dead for like a century by the time the game takes place.His historical source actually died only 2 years before the game's beginning.
>>733682416According to the Nioh 2 artbookTome is Muramasa's great granddaughterToyo is the granddaughterSo it's a mother daughter blacksmith pairing maybe. I dont think that's outright confirmed though. It doesn't have to be that either.
>>733682532>>733682605wait wuuut? I have so many hours on both games and never realized this. Team pulled the nurse Joy/officer Janny on Senji, man thats great.
>>733682807
>>733682845Took me a while to realize too
>>733675839One for humans, the other is for monsters
>>733682878Senji Chuubu WHEN????
What are some bosses from previous Nioh games that you want back? I want Giant Frog and Tate Eboshi back. Feel like their size would actually make aerial combat more useful.
>>733677987>William Adams died around the "present" time (~1620) of Nioh 3 before all the time faggotry.NTA. Historically yes, but Nioh's William is immortal thanks to his fishfu, unless Team Ninja accepts aging as a means of death for him.
>>733682807I miss Tome so muchThese other blacksmithes just don't compare
Nioh 3 is honestly just such rank dogshit.
Who drops the Imported Pocket Watch for the Hollyhock set?
>>733683242Make something else your personality
>>733683168>giant toad (dunno how it's actually pronounced)>the caterpillar boss in the mines just to fuck with peopleTate-Eboshi would be nice too I guess
>>733678659Except William did a bunch of actually recorded shit with other notable Japanese historical figures of the time. Yasuke is a literal who footnote who is only now so important because of some faggot foreigners.
>>733682807Wait, if gameplay is "canon", Toyo is around in Hide's time, then after Hide got knocked the fuck out Tome takes over as William's blacksmith, then Hide's back and it's Toyo again, looking exactly the same?
>>733683379Forgot to mention that most of all I'd like to see more NEW bosses and enemies
>>733675559Why do people want William? I liked him enough but he got his fish wife back. He killed Dee and KelleyHe won. Stop dragging him back
>>733683217considering he has a smoking hot genuine japanese waifu and a son, I wonder if he abandoned his immortality to grow old with them
>>733683217It would have to be, right?Saoirse bonded to him when he was a child/teen but he's very clearly a grown ass man when Nioh starts
>>733683469cameos are fun and satisfyinghe doesn't need to carry the plot, just make an appearance
Hiruko 2 might be better than Otakemaru honestly
>>733683469Nostalgia I guess. It might be cool to have a William + Hiddy dual boss fight in 3 but I'd rather have some interesting new bosses
Is there even a good way to farm 170 gear? Everything I get is just 160
>>733683356My personality is being better than you and I'm happy with it
>>733678123What skills are you going with on it and what's your general approach with it when it comes to engaging enemies? It was my favorite weapon in the first two games but it just doesn't feel as fluid as it once did.
>>733683623>JINGLE KEYS>>733683719Hiddy would be a much better option I feel. Ideally I would like it to have a full fight for the various yokai forms but I would happily settle for one fight where he incorporates them into certain moves
>>733683883>Hiddy would be a much better option I feelThe mute self-insert character?
>>733683883>Hiddy would be a much better option I feel.Putting character creator characters as npc is always asking for trouble.Would the average player even recognize the default hide appearance?
>>733676204So you're not a paying attention person then?
>>733683954they can read my save file. Or use a default if none exists.
>more human bossesplease fix them TN PLEASE
>>733675659>Bro'skill self
>>733683168Tate Eboshi is the one boss that took me the longest to ever beat my first time around. It legit took me a whole day, like around 7 hours to beat her the first time. Don't ask me how.
>>733684059Needs a way to read your Nioh 2 save and export Hiddy's appearance to Nioh 3.
>>733681402>>733681078>>733682351yeah he ended up LIKING the country, while he couldn't return to his original family he STILL wrote to them, but then stopped when he actually legitimately fell in love with some japanese girl people speculate that adams liked the jap girl since she was a nobody that wasnt connected to any lord or was presented to him.
>>733684127I'll be honest, I have never really enjoyed the human bosses in this series, they just spend way too much time blocking.
>>733684253block-spammers is far preferable to whatever the fuck Nioh 1 DLC human bosses did.
>>733683385>Hide's back and it's Toyo again, looking exactly the same?by that then she is probably already long dead, but is hanging around in asian purgatory and ended up in takechiyo's pocket realm too
>playing 1>enemy soldier whips out two pistols and starts blastingDo you get double guns in any of the other games?
>>733677108The reality is that Nioh has always been an easy series, especially if you engage in a combination of the dozens of mechanics it offers you to deal with any situation at any given time
>>733684559Unfortunately no. Wish there was a double pistol ranged weapon
>>733684559Sorta, yes.You get gun tonfas.
>>733684323skill issue
>>733684323you mean living weapon spam? that wasn't too bothersome, the bull guardian skill hardcountered their bullshitthe actual issue with humans in 2 and 3 is that you can just parry (not deflect, parry with skills) and suppress them to death without them being able to recover in any way.I mean yeah they cheat their way out of hitstun halfway through, but you can easily hit them enough for them to be unable to even do that.
>>733684741>The reality is that Nioh has always been an easy seriesThat has always only been the case until you get the skills/onmyo spells you need to melt everyone. In Nioh 3 you get all you need from the start, basically.
>>733684741The difficulty is learning the mechanics and putting everything together. It's not an insormountable obstacle by any means, but it certainly qualifies as a decent difficulty curve.Mind you, I was never enthused with how the early game in every nioh feels as if you're fighting with your hands and feet tied, TN hides way too many fundamental mechanics behind not just skill points but also story advancement barriers.
>>733684865Ever since they took out getting winded whenever you performed an action that would deplete your stamina from the very first Alpha, Nioh has not been capable of being hard without leaning on RPG elements like sheer damage from bosses. Really, the only difficult boss in the series was Shigazane
by the time the 2nd DLC is out, I think people would be fine if japs make it on top of killing the jesuits, Nioh makes them like Maria and calling on GOD to power them up with one knight like character (to bring back the knight set from 1) and amakusa shiro who has a cross on his armor sound fun?
>>733684323>block-spammers is far preferable to whatever the fuck Nioh 1 DLC human bosses didYou speak for yourself kid.
>>733683242well, Im having a blast, personally.
>>733685343Masamune knelt to Moonlit Snow like everyone else
How do you keep the clan bonus after quiting a clan?
>>733685113eh, he's not easy but he is not someone I would call hard either. Someone hard would be like underworld masamune where there's little openings and you constantly have to move, though that could also just be bad boss design
>>733680912>cum gaugeremember to see a doctor if your cum has a blue-ish tint
>>733685637You just do? There is a menu for you to pick and choose all the bonus you earned before.
>>733685637>get enough glory for a rank upThat's it I believe. Not sure if the rank up is even necessary
What are the highest dps hatchets?
>>733685808The ones with the highest Attack, of course.
>>733685808as a weapon they're useless so all you care about is crucible elemental damage stat
>>733684059>Would the average player even recognize the default hide appearance?Considering he's all over every single piece of material pertaining to Nioh 2, yes, you fucking retard.
>>733685637The popup that introduced clans explicitely said that you need to reach deputy something rank to keep the bonus. I think it was the first rank up.Check in the tutorial section, it's very likely there.
>>733686402He's in yokai form or masked in 90% of them
>>733686406Do you need to grind any higher than that or are the bonuses always the same after switching?
>>733685343it's funny that there are two games where masamune date dual wields
>>733686498They go up by variable amounts.In general if the bonus is for something strong it won't improve much, while if it's for bullshit it will.
>>733676896>I don't remember the entire ending act of Nioh 2 and still felt compelled to make a post weighing in when everything I was writing is predicated on something I have no recollection ofI would have stuck with "I didn't play Nioh 2" since the only alternative is that you're pants-shittingly retarded.
>>733686470>He said confidently like the low IQ retard he isI'm convinced you're also coping because you want to believe your dogshit OC is "canon". LmaoFor starters, check>All boxart for Nioh 2, including the Steam display>The promo for his armor in 3>The intro for 2>virtually ALL promo material for 2

>>733686746Outside of battle scrolls or quests in NG+? Not really
>>733686602>only dual wieldingKWAB
Just killed Okita (RIP), definitely feels like the latter half of Bakumatsu can't keep up with me at this point. Not even making a build and I'm too strong.I'll probably start over for my Onmyo run, rather than NG+
>200 AD>Japan is literally unga bunga jungles hitting each other with stone swords
>>733678057He went crazy when he saw his house was destroyed
>>733687289But they had iron armor, weapons and even power cores and shit
>>733686746any that appear in a mission can be replayed from Battle Scroll menu (note “mission” includes far more than crucible, and pretty much includes any boss you fight in main story, or major side mission, like the cave with sexy vampire in act 1).Most (all?) other bosses who don’t have a mission get some kind of repeatable gauntlet where they appear. EG the “demon of pride/envy/obsession” bosses are non repeatable until very late game you get a repeatable gauntlet with all 3. In NG+ there’s even more, since every minor crucible is infinetly repeatable (requires a resource) and has bosses spread across each one.Although I’m not sure if Masters are all repeatable. Some appear in gauntlet missions, but not all.
>>733687367Don't forget the magic stone powered clay soldiers they just left everywhere.
>>733686897>Low IQ retard has to grasp at straws instead of shutting the fuck up when he realizes he was wrongLmfaooooooo
>>733686930i knew someone was going to reply with this. ngl i kinda hate how predictable the posters on this board are
>>733675476He and hide got erased from the canon timeline after beating dlc otakemaru
>>733687519sorry I beat it to you lil gup
>>733687289Japan at this time wasn't a thing. It was emerging iron age chiefdoms that settled the archipelago and had stable enough agriculture. It wouldn't be for another few centuries that society would further stabilize enough for a central governmental apparatus to appear. It's why Hiruko was ready to war with other chiefdoms.
>>733687618>I beat it to youanon, i'm flattered
>>733687737bet you didn't see that coming
>>733687289Those stone swords have fuckin style.
https://youtu.be/8HMBm5Clmus?t=112 It felt kind of unearned for William's theme to appear in Nioh 3's final boss. He had fuck all to do with any of this except for helping out Takechiyo's granpappy.
The level design is so kino bros. I was skeptical of more open world slop but there's actual level design, each area is like its open whole Nioh level but it's all connected. Strangely enough this reminds me most of DaS1 design. This is the perfect rendition of open world. It's even better than Elden Ring world design
>>733687875Nioh 3 never would have even existed without William's game fag
>>733687991Nah he wasn't THAT important. Tokugawa would have managed without Anjin's chasing fish pussy, and Hide being kept sealed underground wouldn't change much.
>>733687954it's literally main mission mioh levels all stitched up together
>>733687954I don't like that missions are streamlined to accommodate fitting inside a shared open field. In Heian and Bakumatsu they're also overwhelmingly visually similar to the point of exhaustion. They could've been better outside of overall density and seamlessness.
>walk around in samurai mode>every boss fight flip into ninja mode anyone else?
>>733688267>missions are streamlined to accommodate fitting inside a shared open fieldI love it, you can go off on a side quest whereever you wantenviroments could use more variety I agree
does 3 not have a divine branch equivalent? i have no idea how to leave co-op other than quitting to the main menu
>>733688406I do the opposite because ninja gets all the detector equipment
>>733688596No until the final DLC, probably.
I am getting my shit wrecked in NG+ byn every boss. whoever says this isnt as hard as the other Niohs is tripping.
>>733688596Press start and left stick bro
>>733683471>a smoking hot genuine japanese waifuOkatsu is the cute type, Fuku is the "smoking hot" type. Learn the difference.
>>733688759Mommy hnnnnngh
>>733688406Opposite for meSince ninja is A agility and Samurai is B it means I run around and platform as ninja with their air dash and then swap to Samurai to spam deflects and listen to the tings.>>733688596It's a dumb change but you press L3 or something in the menu now.
>>733675687The stats are irrelevant compared to the main effect. It's one piece of equipment compared to like 9 more.
>>733675476So everyone talked shit about the black guy from asscreed shadows, but this random white dude gets a pass?
>>733688845Hes white though
>>733688759Sauce
>>733675476I have played all of Nioh 1 and 2 and I don't understand any of the story
>>733688845i don’t see the problem
>>733688907Spirit stones grant power and make people evil because evil wizards and ancient grudges ensure they become evil.That's pretty much the story for all of them.
>>733688891every single fucking thread someone posts it and someone asks for sauceits fucking grok, some random anon made it. no artist, no social media
>>733688891>>733689052sorry bud I don't even play nioh lmfao
Can you buy material essence or do you have to get it by disassembling ?
>>733689094mommyyy hnnnnnghhhuuu
>>733689132tea house sells it. buy it with honor.
>>733689179actually Nm, think its disassemble only. some reason I had rare yokai parts in mind but you probably mean the blue essences, right?
>>733678659>just racist, plain and simple.yes and?
In ng+ is there a way to tell respawned from uncleared crucibles for the one tome boosts?
>>733678659what’s wrong with William?
>>733688596you have to go your menu and select it from options, "quit mission" should be near the bottom close to exit game
>>733679765Claws are similar, but with wrists bent down and the other foot leading forward. I would have expected them to reuse Caestus low stance, but they went the extra mile to make claws more unique.
>>733689576also i think claws/talons has the single fastest moveset, even faster than tonfas or ninja 2kat
>>733689557HE'S FUCKING A WHITE MALE. HE'S A WHITE MAN
Is it really even worth remodeling armor?
>>733689673Yeah, but they're slashing damage instead of blunt, so caestus and Tonfa delete stamina faster even if they're slower, especially tonfa.
>>733686665Welcome to the internet anon
>>733689759Only in extremely rare occasions until NG+
>>733690261Which one is worth using?
>>733689676I don’t see a problem with William, it’s not like he’s black
>>733690013Welcome to your mom (I fucked her).
>>733682532>>733682845Toyo is her granddaughter iirc
>>733680341any weapon that isn't Spear or 1kat
>>733690471splitstaff is very merciful to the enemies
>>733678534I just hope they give us True Dragon Sword & Blade of the Archfiend for 2kat in both styles. I asked for it in the survey.
>>733690502>ninja mode
>>733690563A guy in one of these threads told me it was actually harder than samurai
>>733690678Here's the nuance folks in this thread will not understand. For 80-90% of players they will do better on Ninja for everything up until the most end of endgame. At this point Samurai can perform better if you do 1 of two things, play with 95% -% DT and just spam hyper armor things. Or you are just simply a really good player to the point those 80-90% of players will never be able to replicate.With such conditions you will absolutely shit on ninja players But you do have to wait until then and it is flat worse for most of the game.
Living Weapon - ShikaiYokai Shit = ResurreccionLiving Artifact = Bankai
what's the best way to farm glory? i see coop gives some but its really weird. 1 or 2 for killing enemies and up to 300 for finding shrines with a host, but the vast majority of summons put me in right before the boss of the level so i dont get to find any shrinesare expeditions better?
>>733691112donating?
>>733690678i have yet to see ongbal do no hit bosses using ninja like he does on samurai
>>733691293that's because he's a parry faghe built his channel on sekiro for a reason, he likes to deflect shit, and will deflect when given the opportunityits like asking a magebuild fag to play some spastic light attack melee build
>>733691293ongbal is extremely overrated. he's only good at glorified simon says. see: his dropped playthrough of ninja gaiden 2 where he constantly gets his ass handed to him
>>733690905>For 80-90% of players they will do better on Ninja for everything up until the most end of endgame.Neh, with ninja you need to consistently hit dodge and that's beyond 60-70% players, they will benefit more from being able to block and then you get extension window on deflect and your only issue is elemental dmg which you can mitigate with right talismans, So realistically ninja is better for 20% player that are good good mechanically but suck at positioning so they need the mobility ninja have.>>733691112Find a spot near shrine with lots of graves and camp there then donate what you got from them, that castle near daidara bocchi is one of nice spots for that and ninja with tonfa+ explosive charge heavy will one shot most remnants.
anyone know where yasha's crucible wraith is
FUCK ninja sword is so FUCKING BORINGTHIS WEAPON IS FUCKING BORINGIT HAS NO MOVESYOU HAVE 2 LOOPS, NORMAL ATTACK AND KICK FINISHER OR AERIAL i hope to god ninja get a serious overhaul for melee, because their weapons right now feel so fucking dogshit
>>733691686nvm, i found it
>>733690563Im on NG+ and I have no idea how anyone can claim ninja mode is easier than samurai. parrying bosses attacks is so much more viable than trying to dodge with ninja.
>>733691628I sort of disagree but not really in a super meaningful way. The reason I think you're leaving out for why my statement is true is that those 60-70% aren't going to be able to chain arts gauge, which is where samurai makes up the damage. I cannot tell you how many players I've talked to, including vets since nioh 1 that had no idea you can use frostmoon to extend arts gauge.
How would they fare in Nioh?
>>733693032Man I sure am looking forward to the new game
>>733693032If Jean Reno had his FAMAS, the yokai wouldn't stand a chance.
>>733676953>https://litter.catbox.moe/z2o0396uxn6s1x0r.jpgyou went too big you ultra coomer

>Finally beat Takedas four heavenly kings on my level 1 run after switching to ninja mode.Fuck those guys but really appreciating ninja more on my level 1 run especially against human bosses.
Wish I could reset a single skill to free up a skill point without resetting the whole category.
>>733691883ninja has more iframes, ignores stances, has recharging items (so it can porc confusion more often) ki recovery is practically non issue, poison is really good and gets a kill to make it better
this game is so fun bros...
>>733676953size down a bit, because of the way the weights work they don't scale to a massive size very well https://files.catbox.moe/uoc54z.jpg
>>733693032Samanosuke is basically like hide
>>733691883Thought the same thing at first until I stared using ninja for bosses. Bosses just can't keep up with ninja speed blitz and get their ki bar broken before they can do any real damage. Tonfas for human and 1kat for yokai bosses has been my my go to for ninja when I just want to delete a boss
https://youtu.be/Sb-57RJG7qs?si=JitmGpo5yFlHTOdUWho said samurai can't do air combos
>>733677731It's the opposite for me. I guess I'm just more of a weeb.
>>733691628Interesting. Maybe that's why ninja feels so good to me. I have the Nioh fundamentals down, but my positioning sucked and overextending was always my bane. >>733691112Expeditions build up a glory multiplier if you choose to keep playing with someone, but most people leave or disband after 1 mission/scroll. The easiest way I found to farm glory was to find a shrine with a bunch of graves nearby and to just burn them down with Thundering Calamity, along with a weapon like Tonfa, Axe, or Odachi that can easily butcher a revenant. Donate whatever gear you get after you're done.
>>733690563Ninja is easy mode
Dam they fixed the bug where you could reset what your base soul match cost was. For those that don't know the further you get away from the items base level and + value the more soul matching cost. But until today you could drop an item, pick it back up and that would be it's new "Base" value
Pufferpuss technique needs to be patched to have better tracking and have two of them pop up like the talisman summon. It's a fun technique but its damage is ass and it doesn't destroy a ki bar like the scampuss summon so really only using it because I think the scampuss are cute.
>>733694747I did it just yesterday, I don't think the game has updated since
>>733692965>I cannot tell you how many players I've talked to, including vets since nioh 1 that had no idea you can use frostmoon to extend arts gauge.Okay, and..? There are 2 other Nioh games where this mechanic doesn't exist.
what weapons should i try out bros? i've only used Odachi and Tonfa
why is the soul so much less than nioh 1
>>733694910well I mean I just did it on a +14 and same costs>>733695034That's kind of the point atleast 70% of players aren't intune enough to get that.
>>733695147everything is less soulful than it was in 2017 including life itself. and 2017 was already beyond fucked
>>733695107You're really missing out if you don't try samurai 1kat. It's been juiced up with a lot of new cool shit and it's just fun to use.
>>733695237is samurai 1kat what people in these threads are usually talking about? i see 1kat mentioned a lot but i always thought of ninja
>there's a part of the final boss gauntlet where if you're a visitor you just fall to your death when the host moves to the next arena
>>733695302>i see 1kat mentioned a lot but i always thought of ninjaninkat is what i've seen being used to refer to that
>The final chapter of Nioh 2 is like 70 years after the beginning of the game>Mumyo still looks the same as she ever didWhat was up with that?
>>733695302Stuff like severing spin, sword of meditation, reverse impact and swift step heavy are all on Sam 1kat, and that's what I've seen propped.
>>733695906OP guardian spirit
>>733695906She has sword guard of sohayamaru that makes her immortal or at least that's what I remember the implication being.
>>733695996huhThere's a quest in Nioh 3 about some dudes who wanted to eat a mermaid for eternal life
>Demon of Envyhttps://files.catbox.moe/y9m4yo.jpg
>>733696171can you really blame them?
>>733695996On the topic of guardian spirit, how the fuck do people get one in the Niohverse? William apparently prayed hard enough then Saoirse showed up but not sure if thats the case for everybody else.
Final mission was pretty kino in everything but plot/writing. Even if it's a near exact parallel, Hiruko was not fleshed out enough like Kunimatsu was. It's very difficult to in your mind just copy in all one character's development for another and have it feel natural. Even if the player can, it isn't really a good method of storytelling.
>>733695996>>733696171wait, so she ate her guardian spirit?
>Nioh 1 was one of the best game i played>Nioh 2 was a downgrade, but still fine>Nioh 3 is utter fucking dogshit in a coating of open world slopwhat a fucking disappointment.
>>733696838lmao @ your shit taste
>>733690905>For 80-90% of players they will do better on Ninja for everything up until the most end of endgame.End of endgame in NG or are you taking into account NG+?
>>733696838>nioh 2 is a downgrade from 1That's an insane opinion. Nioh 1 is completely broken.
>>733696705Yeah, Hiruko sucks because he's barely present in the game. A villain doesn't need to be deep, but has to have aura.
And history buffs that can rank all the daimyos during the warring states period im terms of strength?
>>733696934Not him and I agree 2 is better, but many good games are "completely broken", that doesn't mean they can't be more fun than a completely balanced, polished game. Some of the best Japanese games are held together by duct tape, and others if you have the right knowledge can be broken and beaten in 30 mins or less.
Man DLC I want DLC 1 now, I hate the selection of Ninja spirits we have.Tengu can't spirit burst to save her life but far and away the best stats, kongojishi has alright spirit skills but you're almost assuredly going to trade a red burst, bonuses are a little worse than tengu. Nekomata has far and away the best spirit skill with it being essentially a fighting game burst, but it's stats are completely irrelevant.Other spirits are irrelevant on both fronts.>>733696929NG+
>>733697081@grok
>>733696838>Nioh 2 was a downgrade
>>733697208Wirriam wasn't the mc so yes it was a downgrade.
>>733697081Wouldn't it be simply Ieyasu >= Hideyoshi > Nobunaga in terms of land?
>>733696838I don't know what it is about 2fags that makes them screech incoherently if you express that you like Nioh 1 more than 2, but you certainly rattled the hornet nest
>>733697208What was Nioh 2 better at than 1?>worse plot>worse stages>worse gameplay with the dumbfuck counters
>>733697081>>733697153>>733697263
>>733696680I feel like the implication at least is that if you're a powerful figure with a strong will (like a warlord) eventually a guardian spirit will attach themselves to you
>>733697573I think it's the opposite, I think the guardian spirit marks you for greatness at a young age and protects you from then. Have we ever seen anybody gain a spirit spontaneously?
>>733696838>Nioh 1 was great>Nioh 2 was great>Nioh 3 is great man it feels good actually enjoying video games and not being a raging cocksmoking faggot
>>733696838>Nioh 2 was a downgradeI agree. I can't stand the new mechanical stuff Team Ninja added.Fuck darkrealm mechanicFuck BWWOOOAAAAHHH counter mechanicFuck damage sponge enemiesFuck the little mechanical nerfs under the hoodFuck GakiThere's very little I like about Nioh 2 that I'm not too bothered about missing.
>>733697708I guess that makes sense
Where's Hide and Mumyo tho
>>733697708> Have we ever seen anybody gain a spirit spontaneously?The player character every few hours?
>>733697708>Have we ever seen anybody gain a spirit spontaneously?Closest I can think of is Torii Mototada. When William first meets him he has a small bird as his guardian spirit then it transforms into Suzaku during his last stand.
>>733697831Yeah but those guys are EXTRA great and are packing the god-spirit du jour.
>>733697845Suzaku is a phoenix, so it was more a rebirth rather than a transformation.
>>733697814Don't think Team Ninja thought things through when they made their previous protagonists immortal and that fans would question their absence in Nioh 3.
>>733697715>I have TN's cock down my throat and can't exercise any personal judgement>but you're the one sucking cockokay faggot
>>733698019i'm having fun and you're seething, so who's the real faggot here, nigger?
>>733677936dynamic framerate is retarded by default as it just switches between 30/60/120you need a mod to make it variable/lock it to arbitrary frameratedynamic res is fine, it uses 5% fractions and is plenty fast in reacting to scene workloads from my testing
>>733683217>no way fag
>>733677936It's the opposite. Dynamic fps makes your experience awful because you notice all the stuttering. FF16 is the premier example of this as the performance mode on PS5 can't even stay locked at their weird 45 fps standard
>>733696783Spirits don't have physical form. That quest was about some idiots eating yokai flesh, dying from it, then coming back as yokai that you have to then defeat.
>>733697468Kind of crazy how army sizes doubled or potentially tripled in Toyotomi's era vs Nobunaga's
>>733693032Who was in Paris?
RotR and Nioh 3 have gotten me interested in the Bakumatsu period after I realized that I don't actually know much about it.Is there anything I should read/play/watch to get into it more? Do not tell me to read Rurouni Kenshin or Gintama.
>>733698482Nobunaga had done most if the heavy lifting unifying most of Japan when Hideyoshi took over. I'm sure it also helped that he was going to war in another country rather then more infighting.
>>733698154You think it makes me happy that the game is fucking shit? It doesn't. Wo Long, RotR, Nioh 3. Time to accept that TN just fucking doesn't has it.
should I try talons? I don't like the shitty looking aesthetics of it desu
>>733697379samefag
>>733675476The game's woke slop anyway. Praying Nioh 4 purges the DEI trannies and brings back William. Bet they axed him cuz "muh diversity" and he's just an "evil colonizer" or whatever.
>oh cool legwear, I'm sure it'll be a proper fit on your character>it's bulky as fuck and middle part always bulges outwhy are we doing this shit again? everything looks mismatched and awful aesthetics wisejust send me back to rotr
>>733698471meanwhile...
>>733675476>boring repetitive garbage with shitty variety of everythingShit taste: the thread
is there any other game out there where the dual katana moveset is as fun as nioh's?
>>733675476build for Okatsu
>>733700524Yeah.Rise of Ronin
this game can look alright sometimes
>>733675559I think it would be cool if he showed up in the DLC as some kind of superboss.
>>733699961stop using tiddy wrap you harlot
>>733702218this is my char actually >>733701327
>>733702218All the samurai tops are dogshit.
>>733702448if you're on pc then get the mod frenhttps://www.nexusmods.com/nioh3/mods/50
Any idea where to find yasha crucible wraith in NG+?
>>733675476Shouldn't Nioh 3 protag canonically murder him and all his children for having foreigner blood?And Okatsu too, I guess
>>733697381That's a cope.
>>733701327>sometimesI don't know what people are complaining about at all, the areas all look great in 3. Its a huge step up from the previous games, especially in variety.
>>733701545William appears.He fan style shift between like 10 different builds depending on how player fights him. All of which are are recreations of busted Nioh 1 setups. > if you use magic or any range, he switches to the 100% immunity to projectiles and elemental damage tank setup > if you run out of ki he one-shots you with an Iai quick draw > if you run away from him or dodge too many times he whips out the sloth talismans > he inflicts confusion near instantly > at beginning of fight he has a 25% chance of spending 30 seconds buffing himself, or a 25% chance of instantly pulling out a rifle and head shotting you, then killing you with final blow. And a 50% chance of bowing, if he bows and you don’t then he gets pisded off and activates infinite living weapon mode, popping Amrita crystals to keep it going forever.If you beat him you get Saoirse as a spirit.
>>733697753Skill issue.
>>733701327Literally the same graphics as RotR
>>733702792I disagree, only the first area and the ancient ruins mini area looks varied enough. Snow area goes back to ps3 era and bakumatsu is "purple gay rocks everywhere" the area.It has higher asset quality than previous game but for a 2026 game with this kind of spec demand, it looks really bad.
>>733695107Play Magic Splitstaff. It's fun.
>>733698571It was a great way to get all the would be contenders to his claim as shogun to remove themselves from the equation by telling them they could achieve great honor (and land) by invading Manchuria. They never got that far, but it did mean that most of the clans drained their manpower pretty heavily following Hideyoshi's plan.
>save corrupts right as I beat the electrobitch>low motivation to restartHave they released a fix for save corruption yet?
>>733702868Every little region in each time period has its own style and gimmick though, that doesn't make any sense. I mean you even try to claim Bakamatsu is all the same, but even if we grant your opinion there's still areas like the Pleasure District that are completely different and then being similar isn't an inherent negative.
>try the buffed NG+ crucible gauntlets>they are actually pretty challenging and despite Todo and heavy armor bosses hit like motherfucking trucksOh i can already see the wave of ass pain once Todo gets nerfed lmao
>>733702807Wow, that sounds like pure cancer. It would be interesting to see how you can break his fight if you could do that.
>>733702968Not directly but there's two backup files in the save folder now for pc usersSaves me a lot of headache of backing up every session.
>>733703014They're probably going to gut it harder than it was gutted post launch in Nioh 1 despite being as retarded as it is due to a bug
>>733702968This happened to me a week ago but I just said fuck it and got the NG+ save file from nexus and just cheat engine'd my way to get back to my old character. Farming for yasakani's again was painful though
>>733702994Different opinions I guess, I don't like the smeary outdated visuals and the color grading is atrocious. The area variety is genuinely terrible and bakumatsu area in itself just looks like purple vomit. Don't even get me started with crucibles which just make my eyes bleed. I dislike heian area the most so whatever.
>>733703151Do you think the crucibles look the same too?
I'm going to make a video, what should I talk about?
>Shinsengumi gauntlet>first fight is the most annoying fightdidn't see that coming
>>733703307Stop trying to make friends on an anonymous board, no one is interested.
>>733703307Takechiyo...
Why does piercing rain on spear use so much stamina
>>733677986They did exactly that with Wo Long and as a result it was a worse game
>>733699989before and after i'm done
Is Sinister Tyrant the go to set for endgame? Every ninja revenant I kill has it
>>733703535No, they didn't. Wo Long was never trying to be Nioh and it doesn't play like it, no amount of your crying will change that.
>>733703367So if you beat all of his demons, does it change him? Do you get another ending or something?
High Stance Cestus is pretty fun in a flashy way, but it's not as effective as I would like. Needs a buff.
>>733704349There is no "high stance cestus"If you're using the fists you're using every single piece of the kit to rapidly max unbroken stacks.
>cloud runner has iframesWhat the fuckWhy does nobody talk about shit like this
>>733705102Oh nice, i wonder of the hatchet version is the same
Does a 3080ti run it ok?
>>733705102They're brain rotted by dodging and deflects at the moment, still thinking they are OP or something.
>>733696680>>733697573in Nioh 1 by the end of the campaign I thought the Ouroboros snake that Edward Kelley had was the most interesting spirit in the game. He was a mass produced clone homunculus that must have been "given" his guardian spirit by John Dee, so it was sort of left to interpretation where the guardian spirits really come from naturally or artificially
>>733676953wtf are you doing>>733694220these are good
>>733703371I use it because it's cool, but I don't think it's great compared to Triple ThreatIf you want to Piercing Rain, it has to be as a martial opener
>>733706092name of the skills?
which moves would you like to import from RoTR?considering they put bandit bro and his sword in the game, rest his soul, I really like his simian scream vailed art where he learns to atleast stab the fuck before going berserk on the apebunga
>>733687289>just one small in Yamatai>no Kofun or Nara period anywherePlease tell me we're going back to antiquity with the DLCs
>>733706803none nigga that game was straight ass
>>733706092What was that dual sword spinny move you got at the end that ended in a grab if they were out of ki? That one.
>>733706803At this point might as well port all martial arts over
>>733706803I liked all the ones with the cool grapple animations, which usually came from the katana styles. Some of them use the grapple hook, though, so I doubt any of the cool grapple hook ones would get in. Okita is in both games and you can get some of the moves he uses in Ronin, but technically in there his weapon type as a teammate is listed as some weird hybrid between odachi and katana, long katana or something.Fist moves from both the guy who invented Judo and the super monk would be nice.The thing I want the most is the revolver and also to move ninja tools like shuriken/kunai over to the ranged weapon slot. If the revolver is added, it would be cool to have Ryoma's special move where he fires revolver shots off the edge of his blade to light things on fire and as well as air combo you with it.
Is Wo Long worth playing? Done everything I care about doing in Nioh 3 until the DLC comes out and I want something to fill the void.
>>733706803I want the retarded female charge scream brought back somehow nothing else is important
>>733707420It's fun nowBut despite it being the best integration of melee and magic in a videogame, it's still a parry game
>>733707308well…I had a blast.
>>733707420Being a spellsword is cool, but it's not as deep as niohStory is kind of ass, too
>>733707420yea bro its a blast, can’t go wrong with team ninja bro.
>>733707420as long as you accept it's a completely different game than Nioh, it's ok
>>733707420No. Play Wuchang instead, or Nioh 2.
>>733707612>wuchangdoes it still run like dogshit?
>>733707717its a chink unreal engine sloppa game
baba something is blasting my ass holy shit
>>733707862this baba?
>>733707876yes my attacks deal 300–500 damage and that’s not even 3% of his HP.
>>733707862baba blacksheep

>>733675476Geralt of Nipponia?
>>733708131It's legit fascinating to me how hard some people can struggle with Nioh. I'm reminded of the mentally deficient fella on reddit who was whining about being stuck on Yamagata for 6 straight hours when the demo dropped.
>>733708242Brother, you and I, we're like 9000 hours deepPeople new to this game are going to eat shit to dwellers exactly like you and I ate shit to our very first Yoki/OnryokiA stray memory now, but there were people on here getting hard filtered by Enki's when Nioh 2 launchedAs "easy" as the games can be, until you learn how you're supposed to even play them that shit can be daunting.
>try out the control option that separates style change for burst attacks>style switch cancel windows are slightly delayed>swap backI don't know how you guys do it. I switch stances way too much for that shit.
>>733708242>>733708476i remember struggling with gozuki hard first time i played Nioh 2, i didn't leave until he was dead thoughi feel like the people who struggle the most are those who try to force a certain way of playing instead of learning how the game is meant to be played
>>733702838No, some of the assets are carried over with Bakumatsu being basically a destroyed rendition of Kyoto. The characters looked significantly better in RotR however. Just compare Ine.
>>733706803All of them. TN made all these cool new weapons, attacks and stances only to be discarded like actual garbage.
>>733708808but lobosjr
>>733707917use fire talisman and re-up it whenever he goes into yokai realm or whenever he has a long opening after one of his combo string/attacks
