I think the Soulsborne games are overall better, but Nioh does some things better
>Instead of just the death animation, the blood blots actually tell you what killed that player, serving as a more effective warning.
>Instead of just being a corridor to the boss, themain story final level is an actual level with a small boss rush and three engame bosses. Hell, even the epilogue mission throws you a curveball in the form of those Kelley clones

Dark Souls is Japanese you dumb fuck
>>382978449
Nioh is more fun than soulshit
>>382978449
Nioh not only plays better than DaS/BB because of no shitty input lag, but DaS was literally made by a Japanese company in Japan. Literally retarded.

He didn't say it was a commercial failure he said it was bad. It is one of the most unoriginal games I've ever played and was super casualized since the beta version. I'd feel inclined to agree
Nioh was pretty good even if the loot system was fucking awful

>fails miserably
I disagree.
Oh, and who exactly do you think made Dark Souls in the first place?
