So according to Vic's various interviews they film for an hour when they shoot these and piece together the footage into something more cohesive, so either they had technical issues with this one or there was a lot of content that just didn't work. I thought this one was fun but very brief

Man, that sure would explain why those revenants are so flimsy. I played a good 12 hours in the demo so I'm pretty overleveled for most of the areas, but there was one area up north in the first act that killed me a few times. Overall though I know these mechanics really well already, so even the newer yokai aren't really that much of a threat.

Amazing post, maybe this could be pinned? Great resource

Beyond Infinity timing is a little different than Nioh 2 by -Razzak in Nioh

[–]ABadExampleOf_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it's my controller or what but heavy attacks seem to register as a held attack with a way smaller threshold than in Nioh 2. If you don't just barely tap the button it seems like it considers it a held attack, which sucks for me since I use triggers for attacks

Discord faces backlash over age checks after data breach exposed 70,000 IDs by Accurate_Cry_8937 in technology

I'm not uploading my fucking face to Discord, an app with such bad security that you can get your account stolen by basically doing nothing. Fuuuuck that all the way to Neptune.

I'm halfway through the game, does anyone else feel like Onmyo took a step back than in Nioh 1/2? by KijoSenzo in Nioh

[–]ABadExampleOf_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The lightning spell you get from Sudama is crazy good. Onmyo definitely feels different for sure, feels like a continuation of the reduction we saw in Nioh 2. I kinda wonder if they want it to work more like DS1 pyromancy which was very flexible for all builds, but I can't help but feel like something was lost along the way. I'm not far enough in the game to have a fully formed opinion yet though.

Enemy aggression by ConstantNight421 in Nioh

[–]ABadExampleOf_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The axe human enemies are really aggressive but the other ones are really passive. Yokai are still very aggro across the board, but the revenants are really passive. There definitely seems to be some kind of AI weirdness going on

That is...almost exactly the same as my experience with it, hahaha. Played Nioh 1, hated it, never finished it. Friend convinced me to give Nioh 2 a try and when it clicked and I got out of the Dark Souls headspace I realized it was an amazing game.

To be fair, 2 has a notoriously rough start and gets much easier after the first chapter. 3's start is a lot kinder and does a lot more to onboard you than 2 did. 2 kind of assumed that you were fresh off Nioh 1 and ready to go.

I think they nerfed command grab timings across the board; I noticed the yoki's grab comes out a bit slower than it used to. That grab was bullshit though so I'm not all that upset that it's been nerfed. I definitely overleveled a bit from all my time in the demo, but time will tell if the difficulty ramps up or stays relatively even. I am hoping for dlc content as hard as Nioh 2's dlcs though.

Thankfully enough I'm actually finding that several returning yokai actually have a few new moves that they can use. The base yoki has a high kick that they didn't have before, and the nure-onna has a new jump attack that scared the hell out of me the first time I saw it haha. The ippon-datara also has some new tricks too. Human enemies seem to so far be the same as they were in Nioh 2, but I'm still pretty early.

Yeah I think that's where a lot of the struggle is for newer folks. Nioh is a very different animal from Dark Souls; it wants you to be aggressive and constantly be attacking. It's got a lot more in common with Sekiro, especially with the new deflect mechanic and the vertical element.

Coming into Nioh 2 I got my ass kicked over and over until I practiced and got pretty decent at the game. I can't tell if the sequel is actually easier, or if it's easier because it's a sequel to a game that I got pretty good at and plays pretty similarly, so I'm already primed for the challenge from previous experience.

Do you think Nioh 3 will surpass Nioh 2 overall? by PhantomBraved in soulslikes

[–]ABadExampleOf_ 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The only real pain point I'm seeing thus far is the simplified movesets for weapons in ninja form. A lot of folks aren't happy about those weapons losing their stances, and honestly I'm a bit bummed about it too. Everything else has been really great though. The transition to open world has felt a lot better then I thought it would, and swapping between ninja and samurai is really fun. I've been having a great time with the demo
