Is the combat as fluid as Ghost of Tsushima?

Coping? God these corny online only lingo needs to die. I asked a question and I don’t care to hear from trolls and shyt red rep posters who obviously have no interest in this title to begin with

Crazy

All i said was read the reviews.

nikkas aggy for no reason this morning

Reading up more....sentiments look like gameplay is solid albeit repetitive, graphics are decent enough but not up to modern standard, and the open world is virtually pointless and full of meaningless fetch quests. I got a lot on my plate backlog and life wise right now. Leaning towards waiting a bit on this one.

Seems like the open world is a big miss really

It’s team ninja combat so its completely different.

Looks like Nioh 2 will remain the magnum opus for these cats.
Save some money and buy that instead

Looking at the game, I feel like if they would have just taken the Onimusha approach they would have received way better feedback overall.

Essentially Nioh style levels

Essentially Nioh style levels

Level design is the only bad thing i could say about Nioh.

From has some type of special sauce to make their levels feel really good to play in. Only game that has come close to matching that is Lies of P and maybe “the surge 2”

Team ninja with an “open world” is just more bland and empty than their previous games.

I’d say Lies of P level design was closer to Nioh than any soulsborne gme, which is my one real knock against it.

Yeah. From is unmatched in that aspect.

I thought Lies of P got closest, but they still had a long way to go.

Welp, DD2 or nothing anytime soon

Do you think anybody else has come closer to FS? I found them to be the closest I’ve experienced, to the point I think their next game could be the one.

It doesn’t wrap back on itself as much as Soulsborne, or have the amount of secrets, but I’ll give the BOD for it being their first attempt. They actually seem like the first ARPG that truly understands the sauce.

The closest game I’ve gotten Soulsborne feeling from is still Hollow Knight
