>6 hours pass the 26th of April
So when is this going to be available for download exactly?
Already on aus and eur PSN.
>>335512847
So I can make an EU account right now, and download it, or is a PS+ thing?
>>335512847
Shut your lying mouth, its still not in the UK stores
>>335512907
You can, it's not plus exclusive.
https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-...OHTAIKEN000000
How the fuck do you fight multiple opponents at once?
When do you get armor?
For you guys who got it from AU. KTA just told me the DLC is tied to the account that clears the demo. It has nothing to do with game region
>>335514448
So there's literally no reason to not download the game right now in the AU store?
>>335514774
Nope, unless you just want to wait
>>335514774
Seems that way.
You can always redownload it on your NA account in the next day or two, and clear it again to be safe.
Apparently the demo is hard
>>335514984
Hard in a unfair way from what i've seen.
Looks like NGB will remain the only good game that Team Ninja has ever made.
>>335513024
Yes it is. I'm downloading it right now.
>>335515141
Every NG are fair
Git fucking gud
Norway reporting in, 30 mins till download is finished.
>>335515686
He said Nioh was unfair you illiterate moron.
>>335513674
Conserve your stamina and slowly whittle down their health. You get armor by enemy drops only and looting spots from what I've seen. Losing all your stamina in this game is horrific as enemies do double damage and you cant do anything usually leading to you dying in 2 hits.
>>335515141
The only unfair part I've played in the game is the Youkai on top of the roof in the fishing bridge. Can easily kill you, has long reach in a very claustrophobic area.
>>335516053
you're a gay homo but because you posted that cat I can't hate you
such a cute cat god damn
>>335516167
He clearly implied that only NGB is a fair TN game, dumbass
Recover stamina by changing stance at the end of a combo (or maybe just hitting R1 is enough?), allowing you to get out a few more hits.
In any case it punishes your stamina bar if you just spam attack without ever touching R1.
Also pay attention to enemy stamina bar, use triangle near them when their stamina bar is glowing red impale them.
Another Britbong reporting in.
cant find it
Is it on US PSN yet?
>>335516418
midnight u nigger
>>335516339
>use triangle near them when their stamina bar is glowing red impale them.
Oh shit it's literally ninja gaiden
>>335516490
i knew being a part of Europe never got us anything good!
>>335516339
it's just R1 to do a ki pulse
>>335516331
No, he said every game after Black is trash, you claiming that means anything else is nonsensical.
>>335516418
Nothing until midnight apparently. It released on the rest of Europe already.
>>335516820
Yes, implying they're trash because they aren't fair unlike NGB.
If you ever find the opportunity to use your bow do it. Headshots instant kill most enemies without a helm.
I'm playing it.
Looks good but a bit too hard. I guess the free DLC is not so easy after all
> Still no download on german psn
>>335517038
It's an alpha, there's no way this is the final balance
I love the ledge mechanics.
Pushing enemies towards a ledge has a huge pay off. If you knock them towards an edge, they start flailing their arms and eventually fall, giving you time to get in some extra hits or even do a drop attack on them after they've fallen.
Fall damage is low if you land on your feet and high if you land on your face (i.e. you got knocked off).
>>335516339
This also applies to yokai, allowing you to do a combo into a finisher if you get their stamina to zero. Low Stance Katana's upward X drops a huge chunk of their stamina.
Man spears are really good in this game. Having that range advantage is amazing
>>335512737
Downloading as we speak
And I wanted to go relatively early to bed, seems like that's not going to happen
Coop is so much fun.
More games on consoles should let you decide if you want to prioritize framerate or resolution.
>>335520916
>choose action mode
>fps still drops a lot
Don't even want to see what movie mode is like.
Sasuga, Kou Shibusawa for giving yourself infinite stamina
SPEAR >>>>>ALL
Is it on the US store? Can't find it at all.
I can already see the amount of shitposts comparing this game to Souls.
Fuck.
Stamina is fucking retarded tho
>>335512737
Why do you play as a white boi in this game?
>>335523419
He's the original wapanese.
>>335523419
He's half european half japanese.
Shit's fucking good desu familia.
>>335522729
I'm sorry, it kind of feels like Souls mixed with God hand.
>>335523419
Google William Adams
>>335521110
I tried it. It's horrendous.
I'm talking sub-30 horrendous in a fast paced game.
>tfw my internet is such absolute shit recently my ps4 hasn't been able to connect to it in a month even with a LAN cable and I won't be able to download this or anything ever again
I am a little upset.
What the fuck are you guys talking about? This shits not out till tomorrow...
>still not in mexican store
fucking europoors REEEEEEEEEEEEE
Am I missing something? People seem hyped but all I see is a very generic action game. I looked at new uploads on Youtube.
>the state of onmyokoji
Putting a giant boss in a small area is fucking stupid
>>335525039
>not hyped for a new onimusha game
fuck off
>>335524582
did you even read the thread the game is out in certain regions where it is already the 26th
>>335525156
I honestly don't give a fuck about the series. I just care if it looks above average as a game and it does not.
>>335525279
fuck off then
So what even is this game?
>movie mode
>action mode
I wish more games would do this
Just make a euro account it takes like 2 fucking minutes, use 10minute mail
>>335525495
>Ask for what's good about the game
>It's Onimusha!
Literally retarded.
Downloading it on UK store.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AzJ-vPXWOs
stream
>>335520641
Wait, there's coop? How is it? There was something in the trailer that looked like a soul sign.
This shit is already more intersting than Rehash Souls 3
>havent even got past the first 10 enemies yet
t-thanks oatmeal cookie...
>>335512737
I finally made it past the first Oni, but now there is a more deadly looking one plus a group of enemies. This is so not cool man, how am I supposed to fight them all?How long till the end of the demo after you get the Key to Residence?
>>335526665
This boss looks slow as shit.
>>335526665
>Misson based
Aw man
Is it available on the NA psn already?
>>335527425
Nope, tomorrow.
>>335526665
Is this suppose to be like onimusha and dark souls?
>>335527496
Pretty much, yeah.
>DMC is interesting but can not get into it
>Tenchu was ne of my most played 360 games
>God Of War bores me
>loved Ninja GaidenSigma 2
I hope I will like this
I don't want it to be a Souls game, but i wish the button layout would be more like DS
Literally harder than dark souls 3
>Jutsu
we naruto now
>>335527907
Not like souls games were hard to begin with
So does this game have a character creator? Does it at least have different armor to mix and match?
If it doesn't have at least the latter I'm not interested
>>335527496
More like demon souls with the missions
>>335512737
Holy shit this picture is rad as fuck
Seems pretty difficult at the moment. Anybody care to explain what the revenants are? Other players or what?
>>335528151
It has different armor to mix and match
>>335528219
Revenants are ai of other players
When will this be up on the US store?
>>335528151
it doesnt have character creation, but you can mix a lot of armor set and weapons
>>335526665
Ugly as sin
>>335528151
There are a lot of armor, helmets, etc.
Fashion souls will be gud
>those sound effects
Goddamn, it really is like a new Onimusha.
midnight
wtf normal enemies can literally take huge fucking chunks of your health away...
>>335528294
Ah oké thanks, does that mean it acts based on the players behaviour or is that too much of a stretch.
>>335528503
git gud
>>335528503
They can even one shot you if they get you good, it's crazy, but I like it.
>>335528586
Can't wait for another game to be ruined by this meme and byconstantly being compared to DS
That burning village is so goddamn unfair. So many Demon people, mummy things and samurai everywhere.I'm slowly making progress though.
>>335528294
>>335528365
>>335528427
color me excited!
I really like what im seeing so far, atmosphere, sound effects, enemy, armor and weapon design, gameplay, might end up being a cult classic or a hidden gem of the generation
>>335528503
Play it like a Souls game anon.
>>335528823
Yea but WTF is this, there like no estus flash/renewable healing items, why would developers do this shit?
>>335528940
you are one giant ass casual aint ya?, demon souls didnt have renewable healing items too, you had to farm grass
>>335528940
The heal is renewable
>>335528778
I imagine it being a good hit with the souls audience, so it'll probably sell well. Most people seem to have a rather positive impression of the demo, so that's probably gonna help.
>>335527974
Literally means techniques.
>>335528940
It's only an alpha, so it's the most barebones thing ever. They probably just want people to give feedback for the gameplay
Overall it's pretty good though, not the bet looking game out there, but everything else has potential
What do you guys think about the locking system
>>335528940
The healing is like estus
But only 3
>all those stances
Already more movesets in one weapon than multiple weapon classes of DS combined
So far the combat looks good, weapons and armor too. There's no shield but you can't expect that from sengoku era japan
>>335529375
But you're also way faster than in Dark Souls, it's more in the speed class of Bloodborne
how are the enemy designs? One thing I didn't like about the Ninja Gaiden series was that the enemy designs weren't cohesive, you'd be fighting dinosaur trex mechs one mission then you'd be soldiers the next. There wasn't any theming to the designs besides being insane
>>335529535
Faggot.
>>335529579
Triggered?
>>335529535
They're all Japanese-y/Nippon-like enemies, at least so far.
is the game running at 60fps?
>>335529117
can you do any form of kindling, I can barely beat bosses with 20 estus flask, are the elixirs upgradable?
>>335529535
It's bandits and corrupt samurai, zombies and a few Oni so far. Trailers show all sorts of other weird undead and spiritual monsters from Japanese mythology.
>>335529662
Nope, I'm just telling you that you enjoy riding dicks.
>>335529667
The cutscene at the start looked like 60 after that looked lke locked 30 when you activate action mode, i could be wrong though
>>335529684
>I can barely beat bosses with 20 estus flask
Jesus Christ, anon.
>>335529684
Yeah, sometimes enemies will drop an elixir, which work just like automatic Estus Shards.
Hole-ee-fuk
This looks so god damn boring. Is it just the streamer?
I'm fucking yawning here.
>>335529810
Compared to?
What the fuck did you expect
The enemies hit hard and the healing is very limited
>>335529810
not enough action setpieces and explosives for you?
Gomenasai, my name is Ken-Sama.
I’m a 27 year old American Otaku (Anime fan for you gaijins). I draw Anime and Manga on my tablet, and spend my days perfecting my art and playing superior Japanese games. (Disgaea, Final Fantasy, Persona series)
I train with my Katana every day, this superior weapon can cut clean through steel because it is folded over a thousand times, and is vastly superior to any other weapon on earth. I earned my sword license two years ago, and I have been getting better every day.
I speak Japanese fluently, both Kanji and the Osaka dialect, and I write fluently as well. I know everything about Japanese history and their bushido code, which I follow 100%
When I get my Japanese visa, I am moving to Tokyo to attend a prestigious High School to learn more about their magnificent culture. I hope I can become an animator for Studio Ghibli or a game designer!
I own several kimonos, which I wear around town. I want to get used to wearing them before I move to Japan, so I can fit in easier. I bow to my elders and seniors and speak Japanese as often as I can, but rarely does anyone manage to respond.
Wish me luck in Japan!
Is the multiplayer similar to Souls games?
>>335529853
Fucking monopoly.
What do you think, nigger? Anything. This shit looks pretty boring.
I like the art, the sound, and the general theme but this combat is stale as fuuuuug.
I hope people will actually give feedback to makethem improve in some aspects and not just bash the game and forget that it's an alpha, which pretty much only functions as a feedback demo
>>335529810
He's playing safe, that's for sure
>>335526665
Looks like shit desu senpai. Team Ninja died when Itagaki left.
>Pull 2+ enemies
>get rekt
Every time.
>>335530023
I don't exactly see much in the way of bashing though? Seems like people are enjoying it, aside from a few complaining about enemies hitting too hard.
I can also stream, but i'm bad at this shit so it won't be any more entertaining
>>335529987
I still wonder why the samurai is white.
Are the japs mad because of "cultural appropiation"
>>335530023
Honestly, most of the game is already there. The majority of the complaints are about the balance (or lack thereof).
Random tip, shooting samurai people in the head with your bow is pretty much a guaranteed 1 shot kill.
Haven't tried it on anything else though.
This just looks like an even more jappy Dork Souls.
Are people honestly excited for this?
>>335530162
I can already see the souls "fanbase" hate it because it's not exactly the same
>>335530204
Because he's based on the real-life William Adams, who remains a popular historical figure in Japan to this day.
>>335530263
Yes.
>>335530263
>More Japanese Dark Souls
Hook it into my veins senpai desu
>>335530287
So he's a European sailor? How the hell did he turned into a samurai with a fairy who can fight demons?
>>335530263
Considering we haven't had a real Onimusha in awhile either, yes.
Can you summon the cute Akita from the trailler

This game looks turrible. If I wanted to play Dark Souls, I'd just play that. This looks like a fucking cash grab if I ever saw one.
>>335530526
Now he's a mix of Ken-sama and Geralt.
>post YFW this is the Souls game we've been waiting for
THANK YOU BASED NINJA
>>335530668
No one cares about your shit taste faggot.
>>335530526
I don't know anon, how did Dante the Poet whose extent of military experience was some time in the Milita get turned into a buff crusader with a giant bloody cross stitched on his chest and punches out DEATH in the first 10 minutes of the game?
>>335530668
Okay
I will still buy it, same with Dark Souls 2 and 3 which were both just cashgrabs
>>335523419
Not even Japanese want to be japanese when given the opportunity
I think it's really cool that enemies have their own stamina bar that you can see
the one eyed oni stops and wipes his forehead once he depletes his stamina, that's a really nifty mechanic
NGB > NG2 > NG3RE > NG3 > Nioh
>>335530861
You're comparing this to NG?
Might as well compare DMC to Dark Souls
>>335530668
Not a cash grab because this started being developed even before Demon Souls was released
So it seems runnning away far away won't stop them from chasing you.
Does shielding with your weapon damage it?
Are there any shortcuts to open so if i die won't have to go through the scrubs again?
This game will be at least a 8/10. They got the gameplay right, just needs a few tweaks and it's golden.
>>335530730
>>335530786
>buying what is basically a cash grab on an already popular franchise
>actually PROUD of said purchase of cash grab
This is why video games are a joke.
>horned oni that does somersaults and long combos
>>335530861
>Different games
>Comparing a fucking demo to full games
>>335531014
There are some shortcuts.
>>335531035
Sorry D;
>>335531035
How is it a cashgrab of souls when it was being developed way before souls you stupid fucking cunt?
>>335531030
It's a Kou Shibusawa production- I feel like he just wants to see the game actually come out so he's making this his final game.
>During his free time, he likes to play a variety of video games. He plays Nobunaga no Yabou 201X on the go. When he comes home, Shibusawa plays something that requires a lot of time to finish. He played Pokémon extensively, finished every character route in Persona 4 Golden, and 100% completed The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. Shibusawa has been into Bloodborne since its debut and is still enthralled by its difficulty.
This man is a god
>>335530861
>pcucks already doing damage control
Reminds me of a PS3 game, not in a bad way. Well it was supposed to come out years ago, so it makes sense
IS the demo out in burgerland?
oh boy enemies have i-frame dodges, this is gonna be a joyride
>>335531112
This version of the game has been in development since 2012 and they've admitted to being strongly influenced by Demon's Souls, to be fair.
>>335531112
Okay, so you're telling me it's taken them this fucking long JUST for an alpha?
Demon Souls was out in fucking '09.
Honestly, this looks like a shittier, gookier version of Dark Souls - and, apparently, this was in conception first.
>mfw cutting of arms and heads
Fuck sake if sccrubs can literally one shot me what the fuck is the boss like?
Hella annoying when you run out of stamina and your characters spazzes out.
So Praying = rest at bonfire
>>335530668
It's Tecmo-Koei
Everything they make is low budget and looks cheap
>>335526349
>game rips off literally every game released in the past 2 years
>Japanese game
it's just your typical niche game that people who play anything Japanese are going to play and make believe is good.
to begin with, Team Ninja hasn't even made a good game in years.
i hope this game becomes successful. it looks like Koei is trying hard to get away from their button mashing franchises
>>335531337
>Honestly, this looks like a shittier, gookier version of Dark Souls
I don't think anyone really cares about your opinion. I'm 15 min into the demo and I'm already having more fun than the shitfest rehash that is Dark Souls 3.
>>335531542
The game is relatively lenient with stamina, stop wasting it fool.
>>335531565
>Nobody cares about your opinion
>But here's my opinion
Isn't that what an alpha is for - feedback?
Way to show how much of a weeb cuck your are, faggot. Sorry not everyone is willing to buy what looks like cheap garbage just because it has a fucking katana in it.
>>335531559
The founder of the company himself is overseeing production, it's definitely got vision behind it. And he is apparently a huge Souls fan so yeah.
>>335530121
Use stones to lure. Use spear to mop up mobs. Don't be afraid to pull agro back to the starting area by hopping down the cliffs, it makes retrieving your souls easier if you die.
>>335530535
Yes.
>>335531014
Enemies aggro range is huge once you alert them. In the starting area, aggro them back to the shore by hopping down the cliff faces, that way it doesn't matter if they kill you. This even works for the first oni. Shortcuts are there, they're just not as linear or in your face as they are in souls games.
>>335531542
The game relies heavily on stamina management. Don't mash inputs.
>>335531056
Later theirs a dual wielding one. Bombs absolutely rek onis, remember that.
>>335531218
>pcucks
>none of those games are even on pc
>>335531218
Will /v/ ever enjoy a console exclusive again without cuckposting?
>>335531857
Well, it could just be them shitting on the new ps4 exclusive
>>335531729
>Isn't that what an alpha is for - feedback?
Yes, and you aren't even giving any feedback except "LEELLL WHO WOULD BUY THIS? XDD"
>>335512737
Does anyone have tips on how to reliably fight these Oni things that come out of the white-ish areas? They're all over this town and I can barely beat one of them at a time, let alone them + other enemies.
>>335531207
Don't forget Kou Shibusawa important contribution to Spacenoid Genocide simulators
Somebody stream it.
The true Nioh starts here
>>335532127
Use bombs and pokes with a mid-stance spear.
Keep your space and they're easy as fuck to read, they telegraph like motherfuckers.
Clear up the mobs in the area before you approach the mist that summons them. They're weak to fire, it seems.
>>335532249
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-AzJ-vPXWOs
>>335532291
Ha! There's plenty of red lights out at sea, willing to wager they're scrubs you tried to lose mobs by running into the water.
>>335526665
Soundtrack has no idea what it's doing, can't decide on a theme or mood.
>>335532302
>They're weak to fire, it seems.
That is the exact opposite of what I thought.
I'll try the other methods out.
>>335532310
>>335532348
Thank you, anons.
How long is the demo?
>>335532509
I used bombs, fire amulets and the Kato summon on two different onis, they all increased my damage output against them considerably.
>>335532589
Pretty long it seems. I guess you need to complete all the area to get the free dlc
>>335532137
>Spacenoid Genocide simulators
Go on...
>>335531542
The boss can 2 hit ko like any other enemy. The real problem with the boss of the demo how much fucking hp he has.
>>335526665
Is the loot RNG with prefixes and whatnot? I'm noting a lot of color variance in names and glows.
>literally Ninja Gaiden sound effects
Hackyashi strikes again
>>335532673
I just assumed they were weak to water because they were red and sort of looked flamey.
I guess years or colour coded enemies has made me assume every red enemy is weak to fire.
>>335532708
free dlc?
>>335532968
You get it for completing the demo. No word on what it is yet.
>>335532968
you get free dlc for completing the demo
This game is way too fucking hard
Any PVP?
>>335533108
not proper pvp, but will most likely have in the full build
How many weapon types have been found
>>335533090
Perfect!
>>335533090
6/10 -IGN
>>335530012
The combat is methodical, you actually have you use your brain, weapons have useful movesets combined with combos and 'end of combo' attacks as well as different stances which you can only parry in certain ones, if that's why it looks boring you need to go back to facebook. The combat has legs and it's a great thing.
>>335533430
IGN gave Vanquish a negative for having a "steep learning curve"
bravo modern gamers
>>335533430
And too much water >>335532291
Nioh and Lords of the Fallen are the first of a long line of games that will attempt to jump on the Souls train; but succeed at nothing other than creating an overtly difficult pile of shit. Hidetaka Miyazaki is a genius, and his genius is expressed through the beauty he creates in his game worlds. The perceived difficulty is nothing other than the game demanding that you acknowledge its beauty. Enjoy your mixed reviews and yellow colour on metacritic.
>>335533090
People said the same thing about DeS and DS and once you're used to the mechanics the games become quite easy
>tfw you survive for so long you die over one hit by accidentally not keeping your stamina in check and staggering
feels bad man
>>335533472
Seriously?
Vanquish didn't get that tough until like the third boss when I was on Normal.
>>335533242
So far
Katana, Axe, Spear, Dual Katana, Bow, Wakizashi
>>335533531
>comparing this to Shit of the Fallen
top fucking kek
>>335532781
Yeah, it's got a Western ARPG-style loot system.
Is the combat better than Witcher 3?
>>335533613
I am not going to give Nioh a chance because I am that certain of its fate in the hands of its market.
I feel absolutely and irrevocably convinced that with the amazing success of Dark Souls, a bunch of developers are going to jump in thinking they can grab a piece of the money pie; and get a nasty shock when they realize that difficulty was not what raked the Souls series in its money.
>>335533656
By miles
What does sending a Kodoma back to the shrine do?
>>335533531
I've already had more fun from an hour of the demo that I had for the entirety of Lords of the Fallen.
>>335533656
Absolutely.
>>335533656
That's not hard to accomplish
>>335533668
Oh, you're joking, okay, we thought you were serious.
>>335533531
This game literally feels fucking nothing like souls and the combat mechanics has depth. It's not just light and strong attack in fact you'd know this if you played the demo, OH WAIT. Fucking PC clowns.
>>335533728
Unlocks more abilities, so multipliers like Salt and Sanctuary. I've found one that gives a +10% increase in weapon drops and another that does the same for armour.
>>335526665
I'm digging the artstyle when it comes to the enemies, gotta say. The onis and that weird lightning tiger Fu-dog thing remind me a lot of traditional Japanese art. Armor looks really samey though, and the zombies seem out-of-place.
>trying to parry in this game
wew lad, all those goddamn stances
desu, it feels really great that the AI actually has variety in their attacks
>>335533851
I totally forgot to check their buffs, those adorable little fuckers.
>>335533848
