Honestly, they need to lower enemy damage, I think it's fine in single player, but fucking no one is going to play co-op as it's a huge waste of your time to play through an entire level with someone only for them to instantly die in one hit because they did something retarded like turn their back on an oni, or aggro two enemies at once and get combo'd to death. I can get better at the game, but I can't force other to do so, so co-op is just shit 9/10 times.

No matter what it turns out to be, The Mark of the Conqueror is significant.

Before I say why I need to divide the Souls community into two general groups - Conquerors and Conquered - and quickly define both.

Both have basically been around since Demon's Souls, but the very nature of the Conquered demands that the Conquerors come first. Why? Because Conquers beat the path and light the way. Afterward, like mold or a rot, the Conquered seep into the community, ever at the heels of the Conquerors.

How is that? Either by a lack of information upon release or due to a self-imposed restriction, the Conqueror goes in blind. Conquerors embrace the challenge From Software has extended with each release in their Souls/Bloodborne Series while the Conquered abhor it. While Conquerors scratched and clawed their way through levels and boss fights, the Conquered poured over FAQs, Strategy Guides, Wiki Articles, Google Search Results, Let's Plays and How to Videos.

Therefore the Conquered subsist by virtue of the illumination spread over From's games by the Conquerors, entirely dependent on it. Overtime they've let themselves forget this, fancying themselves old hands as they bring their borrowed knowledge and tactics to bear on each successive release.

And then here comes fucking Nioh, reminding the Conquered who they really are. And with little to no documentation in sight they hide behind shitposts so they can cling to that "gud" status they worked so hard to attain. Eventually they'll be back. Once the Conquerors have shown the way, that is.

that's a good way to say absolutely nothing at all
Having enemy stamina be a factor that you need to pay attention to and take advantage of is a concept that I really liked and added some depth to it. It makes you apply a different tactic to stronger enemies. And if you are able to take advantage of your own Ki pulse properly you can really go nuts and do stupidly long combos

This is actually something I was going to ask for too actually when I got around to filling it out, it's a little strange that any two weapons of different types work, but not the same ones. Although it could be the game subliminally telling us to equip two different types of weapons for variety in combat.
>>
>>335947952
>Having enemy stamina be a factor that you need to pay attention to and take advantage of is a concept that I really liked and added some depth to it
I liked this about the combat too, but I swear sometimes enemies have empty stamina bars but still start an attack anyway, especially those little zombies. Feels like they're programmed to attack when they get even a single digit of stamina back and you can't really tell it's changed, so you attack and they're already hitting you.

Can you actually do co-op in the demo?

I think stamina worked differently for humans and yokai. When out of stamina humans are just totally fucked and there's no two ways about it.
Yokai seemed to be able to function normally even with their stamina depleted, but they become susceptible to hitstun and allow you to combo them properly

>>
>>335948303
I think the full game will have that. It already gives bonus Amrita for each shrine visited and whether you make it to the boss or not, it's just right now it's a bit too low and halving the Amrita you acquired if you lose seems a bit harsh when they don't increase the amount you get by all that much. Then again it's not like you risk losing any of it from dying so maybe it's not so bad.
>>
>>335947674
Chill dude, it's only a game.

I play souls games and sometimes use guides to make sure I have found all the bonfires or items that might be hidden.

In souls type games guides do little good if you want to know how to fight bosses and such because even if you know how, if you are a shitty player you just can't beat the enemy.

I don't think there is any shame in reading up guides as long as you aren't completely reliable on them

Humans npcs are just like you, they are still fine when they run out of stamina, until they attempt to do something while out of stamina, so if their ba goes red but they don't block or swing or anything they won't go into the panting stunned stance.
>>
>>335947312

True, but I still like it I guess. It's souls when you want to take a break from souls.

I beat the boss on my first try even though I died like a bitch in this demo.

My best hammer does 320ish and my best katana does like 110. I don't really like the hammer but it's the only thing that actually does damage.

Is this the normal difference between hammers and katanas?

Also how do I spend gold, how do I upgrade weapons and holy shit that's a lot of oni in the second level

>Not fluid, floaty yet clunky, surprisingly shallow.

The entire point is that the combat (and how you play it) is fluid. Fluidity is at the core of the combat with the stances and shit.
There is nothing really clunky about it either apart from a few inputs (like making a half moon motion with the stick for the spear skill).
The combat itself has far more depth than any similar title. You also need to understand the system to not get fucked.

Get better armour, better weapon. Stack two lightning charms and Reikan, the guardian spirit. There, that should be all the boost you need.
>>
>>335951061
Not necessarily for the Demo at least. If you don't want to aim for high efficiency, then you can just rely on playing it safe, make use of Ninja/Onmyo skills, pull one enemy at a time and take one poke at a time to ensure your Ki bar stays full in case you need to retreat.

Low Stance light attacks or Mid Stance heavy attacks to deplete the enemy's Ki quickly and then beat them to death once they're staggered.

Given that it's a Team Ninja game, you probably should get used to getting the most out of the system - Ki Pulse and Pulse Stance switching to maintain combos - as they'll surely have asshole enemies later on that will punish you if you aren't managing your stamina well.

Right, to the left (your left, facing it) of the boss gate, there's a passage to a shrine, behind it there's a body. Loot the body for a key.

Once you get that, return to the boss gate, go to the right, open that gate, and there will be a shrine immediately in front of you. Don't get too close to the statues, they're not your friends.

Hope that helps, bud,.

Also, seeing my screenshot here. Any guesses what "familiarity" will do in the final game?

Is Ki Pulse just regaining stamina mid combo?

Also for anyone having trouble with the game dont bother parrying just guard and when they have low stamina go for a kick and fuck them uop

I'm willing to bet it's something they're thinking about. I suggested as much in the comment section of the survey.

That was probably my bloodstain, do you remember the name?

I did it on purpose.

I don't know what to main, sword, spear or axe, good spears are so difficult to find too, can't find anything above 80 attack multiplier.

How do you join other peoples games? I know how to summon but how do you join people?

Yep.

>>335956301
>can't find anything above 80 attack multiplier.
Weird. You're on the first level? I was doing 350 damage with a spear by the time I got to Nue.
>>
>>335956305
Go to map screen. Hit x on a mission to get into mission info. From there, hit square to matchmake on that level.
>>
>>335956301
>, good spears are so difficult to find too, can't find anything above 80 attack multiplier.

It's random loot. If you're in dire need of a new weapon you could get the weapon farm blessing and fitting equiptment.
>>
>>335956161
I'll tell you what's really funderstand. Unequipping all weapons and catching someone's blade between your palms, and thenow stabbing them to death with their own weapon.
>>
>>335956523
Can you get to the map screen whenever you want?

I seem to be locked in to the level once I'm there until I beat it.
>>
>>335956523
How do you gt to that screen again after beating the level?
>>
>>335956817
You can replay missions.

>>335956717
Can't be sure, haven't tried quitting a level. Some people have mentioned an option to quit the level at a shrine?
>>
What does red stamina mean for anyone who isn't human? Nothing seems to change
>>
>>335957036
It's your cue to go to Stunlock City.

Can't say if they've got armourframes on attacks still, or not.

>Good things about the game
Stances
Ki pulse
Blocking inside combos, if you roll you're fucked
Combat against humans

>Bad design
Demon's aren't nearly as fun to fight as humans, nearly all of the cool tactical shit doesn't work on them and it just becomes a dodge fight
Leveling up to get weapon skills seems nonsensical, why not give the weapons all of those from the start? It feels like artificial progression gating, like they decided "Hey every game has leveling nowadays, so this game needs it too"
Same deal with randomized loot, they either need to change it or mitigate RNG, it's not fun picking up an epic item that rolled like shit and is weaker than your green one

I don't think they're going to listen to any feedback though
>>
So how do I deal with Nue's dark spots of stamina fuckery everywhere?
>>
>>335957865
Just have to avoid them.
>>
>>335957865
Either learn the magic that negates it, or just use sacred water.
>>
>>335957865
use ki bursts or the talismans to purge them, or just try to keep them to one side at a time when running from the lightning.
>>
This boss is dumb

Every now and then you have to stop playing the game
>>
>>335957376
Completely Agree about the Yokai. They need some kind of mechanic besides fucking just dodging to deal with.
>>
>>335958352
I think thats why I like it so much, its the first game since DS1 where when im getting my shit pushed in I take a break rather than just look for a phantom to help. I think that's a sign that the game is good, it makes me want to beat it with my own merit rather than just rush through.
>>
>>335957376
While I agree with most points I feel like the randomized loot is good and bad, on the one hand your point with the randomized loot is true and it will suffer from the same problems games like diablo/wow/destiny does where you're grinding for the perfect roll but that is also why it is great, I can sit and grind for hours on end with a visitor after beating an area to gear for the next.

That may just be a thing I like doing but I highly doubt im the only one that enjoy grinding, plus theres no downside due to being able to sell your items to the shrine for free items.
>>
>>335957376
>I don't think they're going to listen to any feedback though

Well most of the feedback consists of "Wahh, make the game easier, it's impossible!!!"
>>
Do dashes have I frames or not?
>>
>>335958835
I hope to fuck it doesnt get easier, as when you level up a bit and get equipment the game does infact become very easy, any easier and theres no fucking game infact. People are salty they have to learn and progress rather than start strong and end stronger.
>>
>>335959417
After an attack it does, so you can just spam it and use it to get into position doing hit and run tactics. See whenever you have a white sort of phantom when you dodge sometimes? Thats it, happens if you have stamina that can be recovered from ki bursts.

FUCK YOU NUE YOU CUNT.

Took me like 7 tries, ended up pusysing out and switching to lightning resist shit.

Level 27.

The movement is clunky.

Try it, spin the analog in a circle. They pulled that annoying Mass Effect shit where they painstakingly animated a corner-turn instead of just letting movement be 1:1

Yokai loose their magic when out of stamina and their poise, didn't you notice?

And then he returns with a force field or two.

Beat the first boss and you'll be prompted to download "The Mark of the Conqueror".

What is after the boss on the boat?
I'm so close to beating that fuck.
I'm level 19, what level are you chums?

Complete the first level and youll be given a sticker that says "My dick hangs 2 inches off the ground, point to a hole ladies or Im making one".

>some saying combat sucks compared to DaS
>it's actually 100x better

Seems like this game hurt some feelings. Got the mark and I'll be buying the full game. Bosses are harder in Nioh than all of the Souls games, I love it.

You'd probably like anything if you like Naruto. You have no taste.

It has ninjutsu, magic, spirits and headbands so probably.

:^)

So how were people doing ridiculous damage?

I just pumped points into health and strength and used muh hammer.
>>
>>335963139
The weapon and armour abilities play a big part. heavy armour has better abilities usually.
>all low stance damage and ki saving on low stance attacks

Imagine getting everything set up for high stance

die hard souls fans are still reeling from DS3 needing another year of dev time, it's only natural

Sword scabbards need different colors. I want to rock hot pink and purple sword scabbards and have the handles be different colors as well.
>>
why is it that whenever there are similar games there are stupid rival factions?

I like dark souls a lot
I like this game

Is that so hard?

>>335963701
im almost certain they do actually have different colors, I distinctly remember a green one and a red one

Every sword I've picked up is unique. I had one with a purple blade and prayer beads wrapped around it, and another with a green scabbard/sheath, whatever the fuck it's called.

Take him on with the shark spirit and he's a joke.
>>
>>335965076
How? It did off the start because every summon I tried would die 2 seconds into the fight like retards, but once I found someone competent I got my living weapon off and basically stunlocked the boss to death with my spear.
I was trying to do what >>335950670 did but my spear wasn't nearly as fast and didn't gain nearly as much meter back. I assume the summons hits counts towards my living weapon meter because it kept regaining in big chunks.
>>
>>335965259
Do that solo and he's a bigger joke.
>>
>>335965662
I did it solo. I just assumed it was the whole water and lightning thing.

Anon, you might be a potato.
>>
>>335968217
Did you try it?

Now go try it in Ninja Gaiden, or DMC, or even fucking Dark Souls, where it's 1:1 with the analog stick. Your character will swivel on the spot and change direction immediately. Not so in NiOh.

That's why I'd say people view it as clunky.

I learned that in first phase it is easiest to dodge into him when he swings his balls. In 2nd phase you just sidestep his balls to the walls attack and hit him.
