Oxxidation posted:they wouldn't be your thing, then. nioh and its successors are made by team ninja, and their gameplay is way more fast-paced and high-execution than souls endgame nioh is supposed to be pretty easy though? like there's rocket tag and really high damage but on the other hand putting 5 slowing and paralyzing debuffs on a boss with your free onmyoji magic and then draining its ki and stunlocking it to death is pretty easy.

The game, and the Nioh games, sound great, I just need to be in the mood for the style of game. Appreciate the responses

the loot system in the Niohs and SoP take what would be 9/10 games and makes them like 6 to 7/10 games

You don't even have the option of going somewhere else and picking up some magic like in DS1 because it's levels you pick from a map. And most of your kit is hard locked behind story progress. The first two real bosses in Nioh 1 are some of the hardest roadblocks in gaming, real rear end in a top hat difficulty spikes.

I agree, but the first Onryoki and bat lady fights in Nioh 1 are anything but relaxing

Both Nioh games are by far the hardest games I've ever beaten legit

Dabir posted:I agree, but the first Onryoki and bat lady fights in Nioh 1 are anything but relaxing you should have fought Onryoki in the alpha when the game still had durability your weapons would break after 3 or so blocks so you basically had to dodge everything, and even then you had to keep a spare weapon because the first would probably break over an attempt.

that doesn't actually look especially fast in a gameplay sense more like limp bizkit man is using jrpg skills whose animations hit like 20 times like if you hid the gameplay and just showed the controller for that vs a sekiro bossfight it would be at 1/5th the speed

You know what's funny? These towers are exactly the kind of gameplay I assumed you guys were talking about when you first said there was extra content after the credits. Not fun. I died in the third one to a suicide robot and even though I know it's the last one, I'm really having trouble ginning up interest in trying it again. At this point I am 100% only interested in the game for the story and the cavalcade of sad things has me losing interest even in that. And there's an anime. I could just watch the anime

i am currently making my way through nioh 2, and sometimes the game becomes so rage-inducing that i really can't describe it! for example there's a bathhouse mission which is pretty short, but there's a bit where you need to run along some skinny rafters and in the 2nd version of the mission there is a companion npc and that loving bitch knocked me off the rafters into a giant pile of enemies at the bottom 3 god drat loving times.

and then there was another mission where i had 2 cool npc bros with me at once, and we were wrecking poo poo but then i went too close to the main quest path and they abandoned me before i could explore and clear out the rest of the areas!!! i have never felt so loving betrayed i don't care how many kittens you have in your pocket, hattori hanzo, you shouldn't have left me there to DIE

Nioh seems like my personal hell game, judging by this thread. Does it have randomly generated mazes too?

Macaluso posted:Anyone here played that Hi Fi Rush game? Does it feel good to play or is it just carried by its style? Its on game pass so for 1 dollar you can find out, or for 30 you can own it. More relevant to your question, it has a 91 on open critic and people are having a blast with it because it controls very well and its issues are other things. Like does it have issues i want a sequel to tackle? Yes. Did they nail the core concept and finally make a rythm combat game that a normal person can enjoy and appreciate? Yes.

That's good to know about the controls. For the record I had no idea it was a sequel to anything and only watched the trailer like 30 minutes ago. The aesthetic just looks very cool

# ? Jan 29, 2023 12:18 |

It's not a sequel to anything, although it is a kind of spiritual successer to Viewtiful Joe and Jet Grind Radio. Regardless it is an amazing game that you can feel good about playing even if your timing is like 50% accurate on Normal difficulty. It's also just very cleverly written and does not take itself too seriously at all.
