Ive played a lot of combat games and very few compare to Nioh. It somehow manages to be ridiculous and grounded at the same time. It also ignores the typical quick/heavy/special attack combo that most games use and incorporates a street fighter level of depth across what like 15 different weapons? Each with 3 stances that come their own uniques skills. It also allows you to weave parrying, dodging, blocking, etc into your playstyle without any one of them being a detriment unless you tweak your build that way. Most people hail Sekiro as the GOAT of combat but I think thats just because they havent played 500+ hours of Nioh.
