Have you begun stocking up on sushi and sake for when nioh arrives, /v/?
>"stocking up" on "fresh" raw fish
>>342765308
>what is a freezer
>>342764727
I'm not an alcoholic and sushi tastes like shit.
>>342765530
you're missing the point
I'm practicing with my katana 5 hours a day.
I live in Japan, so I'm bretty gud desu ne
>>342766838
If you saw those survey results you might wanna get more prepared actually, just in case.

sasuga anon-kun
>>342766616
but has it been folded over 1000 times
>>342770067
After each training session I fold it another 100 times while offering prayers to my ancestors for glory in battle. Maintenance of steel and spirit is key when the ultimate sword is concerned.
>>342764727
The day it releases I'm definitely having a sashimi platter delivered to my door.
Just got a new GPU I can't wait to play.
>>342770518
but for real though, getting food that corresponds to the new game is a great idea
This game is more japanese than eating a whale sushi platter off of Hazo nu MIko's ass while wearing a komono.

Still counting the days until August. Any thoughts as to what passives the ox spirit might have? It can't be health based since sharko does that, but maybe it could reduce damage and Ki costs while blocking. Lets hear some neat ideas.
Itt: conflating sushi and sashimi
>>342764727
For sake of what? speak english chink
Honestly, I prefer this way over Souls, the fast speed makes it satisfying
>Tecmo said any changes to the game relating to difficulty would be for making it harder

Friendly reminder that this game is loosely based on a real-life human.
It's important to be cultured and give the respect for those who have died so that we may live in peace.
>>342764727
I'm going to Tsukimizake that shit up senpai

From the alpha alone the combat system felt like it had a lot more depth to it, which was really cool and fun. Not sure I totally buy what they said there though, I mean they've already made a bunch of changes that will undoubtedly make it easier, like the lock on movement change for one. Perhaps they mean from the beta onwards but I'm gonna wait and see, and ask for some reversals on a few changes if necessary.

Who?
>>342773113
all of the guardian's boosts reflect their respective animal and element
>Kato (fire fox)
>Affects combat the most out of the four guardians
>Helps with close quarters combat and ki management
>Isonade (water shark)
>Senses enemies around the map, effectively being echolocation like what some fish have
>Increases health and health recovery (water is the element of life)
>Daiba-Washi (wind bird)
>Increases evasion
>Helps with drop rate like a bird being able to scout items around the map
>Raiken (lightning hound)
>Improves your dash
>Improves your ability to use lightning and to handle fighting enemies that use lightning
so on to the ox. The ox had a purple glow to it, and in the nioh demo, the purple glow was for, if I remember correctly, the sloth talisman, which slowed enemies down.
I feel like the ox is not really a buff-type guardian like the four listed, but rather a debuff guardian, as in it lowers the stats of enemies rather than improving william's stats. Another theory is that an ox being a strong type of animal, it could increase William's defense or maybe his efficiency at heavier weapon types (axes and hammers).
The day before Nioh comes out, I'll stream the Last Samurai for us.

Who /hypedfornerf/ here?
Is this the Dark Souls 3 dlc?
![115853[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/kRyDScM.jpg "115853[1].jpg")
Anyone else skipping the August demo so that they actually have some unspoiled content to go through at release?
>>342773661
I'm pretty sure they said they were making the game easier, kohai
>>342765308
The whole best sushi supposed to be fresh thing is a myth. All high class gook sushi chefs say this and the best sushi isn't fresh because truly fresh sushi is tasteless and is less palatable. They say you know people are pretentious and have absoulety no idea what they are talking about when they say they had the best sushi it was so fresh.
>>342775668
>1 level is the whole game
lol
>>342775572
I wish, Nioh's demo was a lot more enjoyable than DS3.
![123564[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/dA1HFX0.jpg "123564[1].jpg")
>>342775668
Nah. It only has the practice dojo + 3 levels. Two of which were in the Alpha demo and the last level we saw at E3.
>>342775668
>1 to 2 levels
>In a 40 hour game
>Spoiling
Nah, what if there's a 2nd mark of the crusader anon?
>>342775939
There isn't, they just invalidated the first one.
Do you think they'll do another demo? I didn't have enough time to sit down with the alpha.
![123102[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/Ua8Nrq5.jpg "123102[1].jpg")
>>342775939
>40 hour game
lol, never trust devs on the amount of hours a game is
I remember when the Dark Souls DLC was coming out and they said it would add 20 hours of content or some shit
>>342776090
Shut up, retard. Learn to read.
>>342773113
>still counting down the days to August
Why? So you can wait through 3 more months? It comes out at the end of October desu.
>>342776217
Worked with CDPR, they undersold how many hours their DLCs would be.
>>342774834
The purple related to the Earth element, the only one that didn't have a guardian until now, so he's gonna be covering that one. I never actually thought about a guardian being more about debuffs than buffing William himself, that could be pretty interesting if it was the case. I was thinking it'd be defensive due to the comment about it being physically strong as well as me just associating a big ass earth ox as being bulky, but I don't know how they'd differentiate that from the shark in practice. Maybe it'll improve his carrying capacity so he can wear heavier stuff.
Oh and Raiken had an exp boost, cause dogs are quick to learn or something I think.
>>342773661
They are probably saying this after backlash from what they said they would change. If you actually played the demo and read the notes you would know 9/10ths of the changes they announced were nerfs.
>>342775554
You best believe I'm preparing my survey answers well. I'm hoping everyone else is as well so they can give some well thought out, meaningful feedback and requests (that exactly match how I want the game to be).
>>342776248
Beta demo in August my kohai.
>>342764727
Played the demo and was kinda "meh" on it, maybe a when its cheap purchase.
Watch E3 trailer and see its Irish being spoken, and sounds as if its Celtic demon he is chasing across Japan. Piqued my interest.
>go to /his/ to talk about japanese history
>"hurr. . . whats a samer eye? lets talk about knights! i love joan of arc!"
>go to /v/ to talk about japanese history
>"I believe the Heian era was more important than the previous eras due to the literary developments that occurred in Japan at the time, which didn't just affect that nation, but all other Asian countries within its vicinity and by the rule of the domino effect, the rest of the world."
/his/ was a mistake
>>342775668
Yes, just because I don't want to play another fucking demo. I want the full damn game the next time I play.
>>342776814
Safest bet so far is that the Celtic demon is the one that's alongside him in the art like this >>342764727 and is why he is able to resurrect after dying.
Any theories on the weird Irish demon lady?
hattori's cat is cute
>>342764727
>caring about this game after the casuals got it all nerfed and now its easier than Ninja Gaiden 3 vanilla
>>342777003
They made William irish and he has the gods of Ireland backing him up while he fights the gods of japan.
>>342777029
This game has a manga already?
>>342777328
With the beta coming up, we have the opportunity to turn things around if it really has ended up easier than it should be. They listened to all the bitching on the first survey, they'll listen to us bitching some more on the second.
>Ninjas
>Feudal Japan
>White protagonist
Spot what doesn't belong.
>>342777029
>>342777480
Why does William look so cute in this? He is supposed to be a serious badass.
>>342777618
You're not supposed to be able to see ninjas.
>>342777618
that bald guy in the backround. What do i win?
>>342777618
Ninjas. They're a myth.
>>342777618
The only one who doesn't belong is (You)
Dumb faggot
>>342777618
Let me ask you one thing?
Does that chick look white to you?
>>342777618
>not knowing about William Adams
>>342777636
The manga is pretty generic, but William is cute enough to make me want to keep reading. Anyone have a link to the chapters? I only found the first one so far.
>>342780575
Someone's gotta translate this it looks pretty fun.
>>342780575
http://www.bezaldfamily.net/?topic=60088.0
Here's the 2nd chapter.
>>342780679
I'm planning on doing it when summer break starts, if no-one else has by that point at least.
>>342780881
Thanks
