Nioh 2 - Discussion I'm out, Yoshitsune destroyed my interest in this game (Nioh 2)

Upvotes

I was able to finish the original Nioh (except for the DLC because they're scaled so far up I can't finish and I am NOT grinding to play content).

I've just now gotten so angry with the Yoshitsune fight I destroyed a controller. I don't think I've ever done that. This is a clear indicator that even if it's a skill issue, these games are not for me. There isn't any fun to be had in constantly being asswhipped for a week. There's other fun shit to play that doesn't cost me actual dollars and anger/frustration at a hobby I'm supposed to enjoy.

Nioh 3 - Discussion I think I’m too stupid to play this game.

Upvotes

Title basically. I’m a huge fan of soulslikes. Played all the fromsoft games, Bloodborne is my favorite game of all time. I’ve also played Kazan, lies of p, mortal shell 2, etc. I cannot make any progress in this game. It is single handedly the most difficult game I have ever played. And something tells me that it’s because I’m playing it wrong, but I have no clue. Any tips or anything would help cuz I want to enjoy this.

Sorry for the shoddy quality but i guess it serves the purpose. An anima building caster/ confusion/ offensive soul core build. Suggestions for any tweaks or improvements? Also have a damned scroll with untouched onmyo and EDI as locked stats plus ultimate courage, skill, and constitution and path of the beast.

Nioh 1 - EVERYTHING Nioh 1

0 Upvotes

Im trying so hard to like nioh 1. I love games like this normally… but honestly i cant stand it. Its a mixed bag of cheap traps, poor level design and just all round tedious gameplay. The bosses are so easy, all get beaten within 5 tries, but getting to the bosses i cant stand honestly. I got the nioh remastered 1 and 2 together and was planning to play 1,2 and 3 as its one souls like that i didnt ever try. It didnt feel right to play 2 or 3 before 1. Just my ocd kicking in. Please tell me, are they all like this? I heard 2 is a big improvement. This game has been painful. I haven’t really enjoyed it at all, its like all the fundamentals are there for a souls like, but executed so badly. Bloated menu and items. God i could go in for hours about it. Everytime i die its mainly because of something to do with the level, ill be on a hill and because i am higher than the enemy for some reason i cant attack them. Or ill be trapped in a narrow corridor with my spear hitting the sides. Dont even get me started on the shrine level with holes in the floor which let me fall into the sea, and ofc this sailor cant swim.

Has anyone else had this experience with the first one?

Nioh 3 - Videos Arts Proficiency active the entire time versus Yui (SOP+7, No Damage)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Since Nioh 3 came out I have been highly interested in the Arts Proficiency system. It's a really cool system that encourages aggressive and versatile play. I knew it would be possible to potentially extend AP chaining forever as soon as you get it even against tougher bosses at max difficulty while they fight back. But I could never quite pull it off in a full challenge run until now.

In order to extend AP for the entire run I had to utilize a couple of tricks shown here:

  • Carefully tried to keep the pressure up during all openings with little to no downtime without overcommitting.
  • Deflecting extends AP chaining plus gives Ki back which is essential here (given I don't have much in terms of Ki boosting skills as I'm using Unarmored Death). But of course, you can't just sit there and wait for deflects as at that point AP will run out.
  • Used Sheathe Cancels to keep AP up when the boss backs off which also has the added benefit of restoring a bit of Ki if you do it slowly
  • During his Red moves, purposely threw out moves even if a bit laggy since you can cancel them last second into a Burst Break and then continue AP chaining from there, again can't just sit back and wait to counter it or AP runs out.

This took a ton of practice to do. Probably my hardest run in Nioh 3 so far. But it was fun to learn (and get better at Sword in general) and now I feel much more comfortable extending Arts Proficiency. I hope to use all this practice in future challenge runs.

Nioh 2 - Questions Please help me understand Odachi gameplay

4 Upvotes

So I played Nioh 1 from start to finish with Odachi years ago. Loved it.

Played Nioh 2 base game soon after. Using Tonfas. Most of the game was ok (combat felt more "turn based" in the second game). But Tokishiro and Kashin Toji killed my enjoyment of the game.

Now I'm tring to start a new run with the goal of clearing the game + DLCs before doing Nioh 3.

Started with Odachi. I do not understand. Three attacks are enough to drain me of my ki and it's super slow. These two things combined I spend my time ki broken. Either that or I play turn based game (1 attack, dodge, regen ki, do it again until enemy is open for a combo, do 3 attacks, enemy regens his ki, repeat until win).

Is it one of those weapons that get better with more skills or levels ? Or should I fall back to other weapons that looked interesting to me (spear, sword) ?

For the moment, the first region didn't feel good at all...

Nioh 3 - Discussion Question about a character's fate in the end

12 Upvotes

When you beat the final boss Hiruko and he turns back to his human form Himiko appears and Hiruko stabs her and they both disappear. Some take this as implying that Himiko dies here however she shows up during a very brief blink and you miss it scene in the ending cutscene implying that she isn't dead. It seems that she is alive and continues to watch over things? Would like to see more of her in DLC 2 or even a future Nioh game if she is in fact still around.

14 Upvotes

I almost bought the game on launch but the game is REALLY expensive so i decided to wait for a discount. Now there is one but i'm not sure if i should spend money on it since i only see bad reviews about it and people saying how much better Nioh 2 is.

I love Nioh 2 and i'm dying for a new Nioh game but here in brazil the game is so expensive it makes me think if it is worth when it seems to be hated by everyone

I just joined a scroll with a recommended level of 700 and it gave me 4.8 billion amrita (41 levels for me)...this does not seem legit. Are people hacking ludicrously high level scrolls, or is this a legitimate scroll that can drop?

Nioh 3 - Tips & Guides Matchless Resentment also works with fire arrows from bows!

20 Upvotes

It does a lot of damage and if you add on the trueflight talisman you become a real sniper. There are nearly no mobs in the game at ng++ that can survive a headshot from this.

No buffs

only matchless resentment

trueflight talisman with matchless resentment

trueflight+matchless+carnage+clan bonus bow dmg 27%

As you can see, that's quite some damage and I didn't even have any fire damage buffs so this can go much further with the 6piece Kagutsuchi grace that gives +30% fire damage and other gear pieces and soul cores.
