Everyone that wanted to play William-sama's game played it to death already.

Now we're just waiting for the sequel honestly.

What's a Bloodborne? Like an illness?
>>
the fact is
Graphics and characters:
Nioh > BB
Art and music
BB > Nioh
Gameplay:
Nioh > BB
>>
>>376329279
This is really all Bloodborne has over Nioh, better art direction and music. Nioh makes Bloodborne feel like you're playing in slow motion.
>>
Great combat but the world and lore just aren't interesting enough to draw me in for multiple playthroughs like Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne
>>
>>376328632
Nioh looks more fun than any of the Souls games, too bad it's on PS4
>>
>>376329491
BB has good action moments and some great boss battles but the lack of good settings (everything looks the same) makes the art not that much better (still better) while the gameplay is inferior for other reasons other than "fast" action.
>>
Will From ever have models and characters that aren't dogshit? Their enemy and boss designs are fantastic, but they're human models are always fucking flat out terrible. It's almost a staple at this point for the Souls series to have incredibly ugly NPCs because they're all made within the character creator, and in 5 games From has not been able to make a character creator that wasn't fucking awful.
>>
Nioh needed better enemy variety like Bloodborne had
>>
Nioh is more of a Bushido Blade influenced game pretending to be a Souls like than anything. It isn't actually all that similar to BB or the Souls game on a fundamental level. It's a great game though

Nioh is proof Team Ninja should just stick to fucking Ninja Gaiden.

Great combat mechanics, shitty everything else. Just focus on what you do best for fuck's sake.
>>

what about no ?

But Nioh is much better than Ninja Gaiden 3. It's a good game that could potentially have an amazing sequel if they really hammer out the game's problems.

Nioh is an irrelevant piece of shit game, a boring lifeless husk, trying to immitate the genius of Miyazaki, but failing so hard that it seems like it was intentional. What a sad piece of shit.

NEVER EVER compare Nioh to Bloodborne. Bloodborne is amazing, it surpasses gaming, it is a work of art.

I used to be a PC only gamer, I used to be a PC master racer, but Bloodborne brought me to my knees, the old me died, I was reborn, a bloody rebirth.

We are born of the blood, made men by the blood, undone by the blood.

I am never going back, PC + PS4 = True ascension.

I've gained insight that I lacked before, by the gods, fear lack of insight.
>>
>>376330271
>But Nioh is much better than Ninja Gaiden 3.

Ninja Gaiden 3 was also Team Ninja being fucking retarded and trying to chase the cinematic movie'like demographic. They course corrected with Razor's Edge even if the damage was already done.

Plenty of devs can make Souls'likes, almost nobody can make Ninja Gaiden combat.
>>
>>376330537
Sure, bud.
>>
>>376329491
Bloodborne also has better enemy variety/bosses
The one thing nioh did better was the core gameplay. How's the PvP in nioh?
>>
>>376328632
I just finished the dlc
>>
>played nioh up until that lightning wolf thing in the abandoned village
>kill it, get told about about gesture effects and go into a mine
>haven't played since

the game was just very boring to me, which seemed odd since i loved games like the souls series as well as games like DMC and ninja gaiden, so i figured this would be perfect since it looked to combine elements of both. did a bunch of experimenting with stance dancing to extend combos and abuse different openings but it just felt dull

was using axes and spears if that makes a difference

I like Nioh but this is one of the games that i feel the sequel will be better.

It just needs more stuff.
More enemies, more level variety, more weapon classes.

The first one is the most important one.

I'm sure most people have played both. I'm a fromsoft shill and like BB better but nioh was good

You either get one shot otherwise it's full of nothing personnel tier combat where everyone is teleporting 10 times a second and the win is decided by who has a better connection.

>>376328632
No one said that. They just said it would be better than Dark/Blood. They were also making fun of people for thinking that Dark/blood was hard and that Nioh was too hard for them.
>>
>>376332581
Funny because I find Nioh to be easier.
You can actually control and react to stuff compared to Souls where your character seems to be constantly wadding through honey.
Also the camera is a gift from God compared to Souls camera.
>>
>>376332839
Nioh has more ways to trivialize the combat.

Thats what happens when you have a diablo loot system.

By the way is there any art with the two Muhrias?

Both are great for different reasons. Recent Nioh DLC was great and the Odachi is a top tier weapon. Stop making them fight, its pointless.

Gives me hope for a Nioh 2 addressing the series short-comings thusfar. Nioh does a lot of things great, I just hope they don't go the souls route and ruin everything for the sake of PvP.

This isn't fun though, breaking the game removing any semblance of challenge in a game designed to be challenging defeats the purpose.

Bloodborne is better.

And for fucks sake, whoever makes the next game use the fucking estus flask system for healing, grinding for healing in these games should not exist.

I've just started the full game, but I did play the first two demos to completion. Is the samurai point distribution such that I'll only have enough points to really dedicate to one weapon? I play primarily kusarigama with a sword as backup, but I never use the sword because I have no skills for it.

Any helpful bits of knowledge I should know going in?

>>376328757
This.
Although I honestly enjoyed playing through nioh more than I did BB.

>>376343585
You can max out all weapon skills and still have a few points to stuck into the new up attack/unarmed/ranged attack perks.
even if you don't plan on using all weapons, most have passive skills that apply to all weapons.
>>
>>376343585
You gain skill points for gaining proficiency with weapons.
By leveling up you gain more than enough skill points to max more than one weapon.

Soulsborne fan here. Been thinking about picking up Nioh recently but it's still 60 bucks. Is it worth it? I'm a huge sucker for character fashion customization and build variety.

What's the point in having a hard limit of the number of jutsu you can have if we already have a limited number of quick slots?
>>
>>376342512
Yeah i know right? I finished the game at level 115. Now i play the DLC and my balls were getting crushed. You pay for a season pass and then you get your shit stomped in because you are not the recommended level. I eventually beat the DLC on level 137 with the skin of my teeth.

>>376344056
One of the few games I actually feel justified in spending $60 on. It's by no means perfect, but it's still great fun. Especially once you clear baby mode.

Combat is the bread and butter of the game.
Getting good at the combat feel amazing, especially when you take on a group in glorious melee and win without taking a scratch.

Level design and side-mission variety is easily the worst aspect of the game though.
>>
>>376344312
What do you do to get at level 400? Grind levels?
>>
>>376329279
Interesting how you left out stuff that Bloodborne undeniably has over Nioh, like World Design and Enemy Variety. Epic dude.

Nioh
How anyone can still be playing DS3 at this point is just baffling. It has to be the least replayable RPG to come out in a good while.

Nioh would be much fucking better if it weren't for the loot and RPG bullshit
It's obnoxious when a boss is only hard because I didn't level high enough or my gear is just mediocre but if I come back with a higher level and better gear, the boss is a fucking joke

It wouldn't be so bad if the first four areas with 0 deviation whatsoever was not the worst singleplayer content they've ever made. The worst area you can think of in DS2 is better than the undead settlement or the worst swamp in the series

Is there a point of diminishing returns in stats like there is in Souls? My DEX is at 20 for chain 'n sickle, I tend to only pump that along with Body and Heart. I ignore Spirit because I always forget about Living Weapon. Am I fucking myself?

What are the odds of this getting a GOTY/whatever edition where all the DLC is included? I want to play this, but I'd like the complete game.
>>
>>376344560

This. I really loved the combat in Nioh, but it's levels were just not as good as BB's. It also had shit enemy variety, which lead to my getting bored with it.

I also didn't like the Diablo-esque loot system, but that's something that I can chalk up to preference.
>>
>>376330069
>and in 5 games From has not been able to make a character creator that wasn't fucking awful.
They didn't make their facial system you fucking retard
Here's a hint: it's the same one used in fucking oblivion
>>
>>376349629
>I also didn't like the Diablo-esque loot system, but that's something that I can chalk up to preference.

Yeah, loot systems are often kinda annoying because they just add the busywork of having to stop and compare drops every 5 minutes.
The loot system in Nioh is particularly bad too because they shower you in equipment that can have so many damn effects that you just get lost if you try to min-max.
And there's not that much variety in skins, so you're just swapping identical weapons just to stack numbers most of the time.

I much prefer a standard weapon upgrading system.
>>
>>376339202

Please never say that anything Oroboro does is "really good." I honestly think the world would be a better place if he got hit by a car and/or lost his voice indefinitely.
>>
>>376328632
Strongly considering buying the base game, I have nothing else to play on my PS4. Already played P5, Yakuza 0, Automata, etc.
>>
Isn't Nioh more like an Onimusha game rather than a Souls game?

Other Nioh bros, did any of you have control problems during the new DLC, like the sprint keeps interrupting?

Other than the stupid "activating quick bar items to quickly causes the first item used to activate instead of the subsequent ones" bs, nope.

pretty good, i've sunk in a lot of hours, and that's without ps+ since i'm poor.

Am I going to like Nioh if I didn't like Dark Souls?
>>
>>376351059
Probably not because nioh plays a lot like a souls game until you level up some.
>>
Waiting for every DLC to be out to make going back really worth it.
>>
>Sub 20 fps
>Average graphics
>Mouths aren't even animated during in-game conversations
>Combat that feels like you're overcoming a hernia every time you swing a weapon

I'm convinced at this point everyone is just too damn scared to criticise the Souls games at risk of being called a casual or something. Seriously, every god damn time it's the same points of praise (oh it's so le tough but fair but you feel so good about overcoming a challenge it's not at all bullshit)
It's the biggest example of a hivemind I've seen with a series for a while.
>>
>>376351146
>until you level up some
Does the combat stop being mindlessly dull at that point?
>>
>>376351194
but mouths are animated, I mean it's not lip sync quality, but I'm farming Muneshige and you can clearly see his mouth moving.
>>
>>376351264
Yep, ones you get a couple of moves combat becomes much better (unless you are an axe bro in which case you just heaven and earth or mad spin everything to death)
>>
But does Nioh have le hard difficulty like Souls? That was kind of the whole selling point of DS.
>>
>>376351847
With the latest dlc, I'd argue Nioh has surpassed Souls in difficulty.
>>
>>376351473
I wasn't talking about Nioh. Just something I noticed in Bloodborne recently.
>>
>>376351847
Nioh just put in two bosses that bore into you for hours without pulling out if you're using a slow weapon
They were sort of pushing the hard difficulty meme back when the game came out but they didn't really do much with it until now
>>
>>376335415

?

Bare-handed parry is in the game. They also made unarmed damage a dump stat for skill point. Unarmed is certainly viable if you're good enough.
>>
>>376344056

Don't do it.

The 60fps spoiled bloodborne for me
>>
>>376352760
The 30fps should have spoiled bloodbourne for you already.

In Nioh you:
>obliterate the enemy without any problems
>die only because you get too cocky
>the game limits your arsenal and you do almost no damage so the boss fight drags on

It's a strange kind of difficulty.
>>
>>376333337
God I wished I didn't played Nioh when Sloth Talisman wasn't overpowered, I would have enjoyed the game even more

after nioh i honestly find bloodborne's combat boring
>>
>>376333032
I don't know, but I ate it and my stomach's kind of bloaty.
>>
>>376339056
BB has more interesting weapons but Nioh's got that wonderful stance and stamina management.
>>
>>376353536
This pretty much. I'd also say I haven't noticed any issues where I get fucked because of stupid tracking issues. As for bosses, Nioh takes the cake in human ones and Souls in creatures. Though every build needs a bit magic to back them up so it won't be just a battle of endurance.
>>
>>376354080
I like nioh's little more down to earth weapons, kind of getting sick of how souls keeps getting more anime cheesy weapons each game
>>
>>376354392
I feel you. I always end up choosing mundane weapons and armor in souls games, everything else looks too flashy.
>>
Kusarigamafag here.
Should I reroll a str build and pick up an axe or odachi? I'm tired of doing nothing but cheesing everything with that disgustingly OP flurry attack.
>>
>>376351194
>>376352213
You probably should've specified, since this is a Nioh thread.

I immediately got a "WTF m8" when you started off about the fps. Especially when Nioh has a specific setting for getting a consistent framerate.

I just finished the game. Killed the real endboss but I get my shit kicked in by the optional 2x bosses at ones levels. I played katana the whole way through.

I'm level 104 but I feel I do really low damage. Can some recommend a fun pve build?

>>376358557
Wrong, no level headed person will turn into a weeb. Nioh will not be the deciding factor. posting on 4chan is more likely to make you a weeb

Those group bosses i still can't beat and i am level 130, i would recommend keep going with NG+ or the DLC and get better stuff and come back later,

also make sure you reforge your gear to effects that help your katana, also getting supporting magic like the armor debuff, or the power pills helps

>>376359851
So it's more of a gear check thing? Is the more damage from the back the only was I can do good damage with the katana? I couldn't figure out another way.

It doesn't matter if From and Sony Japan Studio make another Bloodborne; as long as it is on the ShitStation 4 I won't buy it.

Sony needs to make the PlayStation 5 already that can provide the following:

Bloodborne The Old Hunter Edition REMASTERED
4K(1440p is "fine'' as long as it has 144fps option) 60fps MAX SETTINGS.
- no frame pacing issues - no chromatic abberation
- option to disable motion blur and depth of field
- reduced loading times to 5-10 sec (my SSD loads DS3 in 3sec).

THEN and ONLY THEN, will I buy a Sony product.

As long as ShitStation 4 is their main device I won't buy their games. Period.

In a sense that everyone speaks their native language only. So English Irish William speaks English and every japanese character speaks Japanese or adorable Japglish.

William and a few of the villains and minor NPCs speak English
William's Irish spirit fairy waifu speaks Gaelic
