Did PS4 get a second game?
>>335849032
Well no it's not out yet, unless you're counting a demo as a game.
>>335849481
>a game demo isn't a game

>>335849032
LOL!
>>335849535
No, it's a demo of a game. Do you think a trailer is a movie?
I wish. It's fucking horrible.
>>335849694
How so?
Is this the new Nioh thread or is this another shitposting thread? If the former, what is everyone's build looking like? After I beat the second area I'm gonna do a spear/Talisman run.
It's not out yet. And the PS4 has a lot of games.
>>335849032
>ninja gaiden without mashy combat and less retarded storyline
bravo TM you can just kill off NG now
Is there coop in the game? I'm afraid to try it out since you die in 2 hits
>>335849982
Mine was pretty evenly spread by the end, around 10 in almost all stats since I didn't really know what to focus on.
>>335849982
High stance + axe master race
can almost handle 3 enemies at the same time now

Don't be sure until we know what the story actually is.

What the fuck are you talking about, if you see a trailer you wouldn't say you've watched the movie now would you?
>>335849032
So PS4 has now two (2) more games than PeePoo and PeeCee?

>>335849032
>/v/ is talking about it
>played the demo
>holy shit!
FUCKING YES!!
>>335850364
I read all the stats and put points into skill because I thought Katanas would scale with that. Then I actually looked at the weapons and they were all different. I also found out my spirit animals needed points in spirit for the greyed out abilities to work. I felt kind of dumb.
>>335850428
Axe is really fun. Almost makes me wanna do a strength build relying on just that.
>>335850761
Triggered?
>>335850345
Yeah, there is. Just like Souls games, you can summon other players to your world to help you. It works in the demo too.Just don't admit you did it on this board.
>>335850671
>PeePoo
Now was that really necessary?
>>335849032
is this the game thats like monster hunter or am i thinking of somthing else?

>one game is a souls game
> the other game is a souls-ish game
Jesus I hate this gen and the "only souls game are good" mentality that has been going on
Pastaing my earlier stuff about common complaints
>Durability
Personally i feel that this is a good thing to have, and while the rate of deterioration can be adjusted, i see no use in upping that 50+%. The reason being that you gather money , and it stands to reason that you can buy all the whetstones you want. Also, you'd want to eliminate the "drake sword" issue. More on that below
>Loot
The loot system needs tweaking obviously, as some other anon said it's ridicilous how a one of a kind weapon that's lvl 20 can be objectively worse than a lvl 18 normal weapon, simply because the stats don't make sense aside from a small damage upgrade. The loot works well imo since it's obviously also used to offer alot of things to the shrine for exp and extra items, with the ability to "lock" your favourite weapons so you don't accidentally sell them.
(cont...)
>>335853125
I love it for the exact same reason
It's not gonna last so I'm enjoying it while I can
>>335853125
Sony knows that Souls/likes are all the rage, that's why they're all heading to their machine.
>>335853245
>loot cont
What we also need to take into consideration is that the game seems to favor weapon TYPE over spesific weapon. That being said, there is a thing that shows up on the game that noone can do anything with yet, which is familiarity. You might have noticed on the weapon select screen that there's a separate stat for that, which can either mean you use a weapon TYPE to get access to higher leveled skills, or it's designed for a particular weapon (which i don't personally believe is the case) in order to strenghten your own weapon, the logic being familiarity with a weapon would mean you use it better, making the durability better and giving you extra strenght.
>Difficulty
The difficulty seems to stem from people playing it as something they shouldn't, namely a souls game. From what i understand this game relies on stamina much heavier than souls ever did, even going as far as to punish you severely for mismanaging it.
(cont...)
>boost skills that boost damage to enemy ki
>empty boss' stamina
>stunlock boss with easy hits
I should have done this sooner. Demo is easy after this.
>>335851445
why do you feel the need to not only pos in every nioh thread but also use your trip?
Can you just make a general of it and fuck off? Using your trip doesn't make you more knowledgeable of a game.
>>335853338
>Difficulty Cont
There are also several tools avaliable for you to lighten the load so to speak. RPG's have the somewhat unique nature of built in "handicaps" which would be leveling and even summoning other players for help. This way you can make the game vastly easier by grinding until you feel it's manageable. You can also obviously challenge yourself more by not leveling up at all. If not that, you have several weapons that are easily usable to handle crowds (spears) as well as specialized equipment to pick someone off (bow, throwables).
What i will say though is that some equipment is damn near useless imo, like the medusa powder since it won't work unless you literally trap someone in a corner with it so it triggers. It makes me think it' suspposed to be used with a paralyse weapon, but it's still too iffy since it gives maybe one or two ticks before the enemy is pushed out of the cloud.
(cont again)
>>335851445
Fuck off to /vg/ tripcunt
>>335853430
>Lock on
finally the lock on system. What i appreciate is the fact that you aren't actually completely locked on, meaning y ou can still focus on a particular enemy against a group, and still be able to handle the "lesser" enemies. You can choose wethe rto run freely and reposition, or you can nudge the stick instead to focus completely on the enemy in front of you, though i will add that we could use some kind of interaction to "lock" your character to the walking if you'd so like to.
>>335853369

>go strength
>watch bosses die in four square > triangle combos

how do I repair equipment, or do I have to find a smith?
>>335853883
Use a wetstone.
>>335853965
so without a whetstone I can't repair anything, like at shrines?
>>335854047
Not in the demo.
>>335849481
Demo has more playtime than most AAA games these days to be honest.
>>335854174
fuck. Are whetstones at least plentiful-ish?
>>335854251
I constantly had 4-7 on me and I used a katana
Finding them on enemies and offering other useless equipment gives you plenty, in my opinion
>>335854297
That will be my only complain in the feedback form, unless there's implications that I am not aware of, I'd like it if they prolonged equipment durability. That shit just ain't fun.
>>335854251
I usually have at least 9 of that and the glue which repairs armor. As long as you are killing enemies regularly it should drop
>>335854251
You get more of them in the second level, so much so that I have to leave them behind a lot of the time because I can't carry anymore.
They are kind of rare in the first area. I think this is because they are trying to hammer in the idea that you should be swapping weapons regularly.
Also, try dodging into breakable boxes and such. That's when you will find most of them.
when is this coming to pc?
>>335854442
You know they don't really break right? They just get dull and do a bit less damage.
>>335854536
Never. TN said they would never release another game on PC after that crap with DOA.
I hope we'll get a backstory and NPCs.
AFAIK it's the 4th game in PS4s lineup after BB, Ratchet and Clank, and soon to be Uncharted 4.
Pretty diverse lineup there 2bh.

They didn't forbid it though. They said if you do it then we just won't make any more games for you.

>>335857169
Bloodborne is better but you're entitled to your awful opinions tripfaggot
>>335856529
I have a feeling that even if no one made mods for DoA, they still wouldn't make any more games for PC. Tecmo Koei is Japanese, the Japanese have a biological aversion to anything PC, not to mention the PC port was absolutely dismal from the start. It was just a convenient excuse.
>>335857323
so they copied a japanese game dark souls and reskinned it with japanese things, made it shittier in every way possible?
>>335857352
Pretty ironic post.
Bloodborne lives off pretentiousness of the souls series being good and nothing more than meme fodder for discussion.
Nioh actually shows itself as an action game that requires patience and less grinding than bloodborne.
Also the combat is far more accurate than the cheapness of some enemies in bloodbore.
Best thing is how it removes the loading of hunters dream for a shrine, so you dont have to load back and forth to talk to a doll.
for weapons that have drop rate boosts, are they an all-the-time thing or just when you kill with them?

Bloodborne is pretentious slop as it feeds off the success of the souls series. It is filled with Victorian elements that are difficult to see and contains almost no plot or story besides some random comments written by Japanese devs.
It is being sold as a work of art and next Gen game experience, both of which are not true.
Please understand that bloodborne was merely a throwaway project for From to get Sony to fund a new souls engine.
And with that now you have souls 3, which I'm sure is far more solid game than Bloodbore.
>>335855253

>>335857658
Any opinion you have is instantly thrown out the window. What's a cheap bloodborne enemy? The game had its flaws but was still top tier pcfat. Hope you enjoy being treated like you were in middle school, tripfag
I want a "use now" button for items on the ground. The caps for whetstones, glue, water, etc, are pretty low, which is fine. And they're not exactly things I'm going to keep on the D-pad. So why not save a step and let me hold triangle or something to use the item from the ground, instead of opening my inventory, using one, then picking up the new one?
I say this, and realize I'm constantly finding new things, so apologies of there is a simple answer already to this.

That's a neat idea and would be useful. There really isn't anything like that in the demo.

I'm not the only one itt who wants an option to buy whetstones in the main game right? As of right now they seem to be the most valuable items, and there's nothing to spend gold on really, I think I'm running around with 6K gold right now.

sedatives don't immunize you. They just clear the bar, which immediately starts filling again. Not to mention they can just instantly start draining your health without touching you or waiting for their bar to fill.
>>335859470
That has literally never happened. Maybe if you took that trip code off you wouldn't be so negative on a game you never played. Enemies attacking through walls has been in literally every souls game
>MUH Soulslike
this game reminded me more to Way of the Samurai and Onimusha.
>>335859482
If you have to carry a rare and expensive item to make an enemy type not shit, it's probably shit anyway.
Stop defending bad game design, Winter Lanterns are the worst enemies in the entire Souls series, and are terribly lazy as they have literally one attack.
yeah and its a clone of the PS4's first game

Nigga what. There's a grandma that just gives you free ones.
>>335859715
looks like dobson desu
>>335859687
Maybe if you weren't a tripfag and played the game properly you would rush in, kill one, pop a sedative and then kill another. If that's the only cheap enemy then I think they got it pretty right.
>>335859814
I don't really think anyone is denying the fact that nioh borrows a lot of mechanics from other games but for what it is its good
>>335859889
>Going to an NPC to get ONE sedative at a time, when Winter Lanterns almost always come in pairs.
Once again, stop defending bad, lazy game design.
So... Do I go in and open the door? Or do I have to fight it inside?
>>335859724
>rare item
Literally what
The 1 thing that pisses me off in this game is how every time I want to fight the second boss I have to open the gate and there is 1 Oni guarding it. I have no i-frames when opening the gate so I am fucked having to fight him or wait for him to walk away every single time.
>>335860016
go in and open the door
thats how I did it
>>335859814
Not really. Combat is substantially different and there are many mechanics that differ under the engines hood as well. The only thing I would agree is similar is the souls/amarita progression system. But at the same time it seems there is a seperate gold currency which buys actual items so even that isn't 100% the same.
>>335860019
Webm unrelated to the problem by the way. Just wanted to show useful items are in this game. 1 bomb can take out half of any onis health.
is nioh the meme game of the month?
>>335860018
They can only be obtained a few times, and once at a time from an NPC until you unlock them for purchase.
The thing is, sedatives wouldn't even have to exist unless Winter Lanterns did, bad game design is when an entire status effect and item is based on one enemy, and one area.
>>335860085
Where do you buy items? I've got a shit load of gold.

Its not in the game yet but given how much you can get it can't just be for buying blessings from the kodama. Come release there will most likely be buying and repairing weapons and armor at shrines.I can't wait to see a tiny kodama try and lift a hammer to repair a sword

tried it for an hour
so this game ischeap ass dark souls copy
Hell yeah motherfucker lets do this shit I am ready.fucking door close faster pls ;-;
>>335853430
at the same time though, and maybe this is just because its a demo- they sort of drop you in there and tell you to have at it while you dont fully get the mechanics yet, and immediately toss a 3v1 at you if you missed the path to sneak by them. (which is another issue, loads of times I went in circles because I couldnt notice a small narrow path- second stage is also a bit too dark. cant see shit and theres no torch or anything, meaning enemies can gank you while you cant see them lying on the ground- this is especially heinous with the crawling zombies)
is anybody here gonna believe me when I say the demo was really fucking easy for me. I went with a strength build, axe mainly. Got to level 22 and beat the last boss. He killed me three times because I was still figuring out the game and his attack pattern, but once you realize the boss sucks at hitting you once you're next to him, he will barely lay a scratch on you. I one shotted a lot of enemies and killed the boss in like 15 hits.

You are better off just letting Frenzy pop then healing after. It is actually cheaper than sedatives. And that is what I do, but that doesn't stop it from being cheap.
>>335860447
Good taste man.
It's a shame Sanjuro isn't nearly as good as Yojimbo, I really like Mifune's character.
>>335860696
That game fucking sucks.
>>335860697
If you want to spend $350 for two games, sure
>>335860715
Or you could pull that visceral just right, most of the time those things are alone.
>>335860696
So it's no different from Bloodbourne. We should be used to this.
>this game is a copy of dark souls! downvoted
And dark souls is a copy of MonHun so I don't know why people complain
Is the healer blessing green thingy in the second location? Do you guys have any idea of where it could be?
>>335860487
Netcode does seem to be too bad most of the time. I haven't had any sort of problem yet with Co Op.
Certainly not so bad that PvP is out of the question entirely when it would be incredible.
Imagine going ninja mode and poison darting some mook fighting an Oni. Shit would be awesome to see
>>335860857
>And dark souls is a copy of MonHun
Uh
saw a webm in the previous thread where some guy popped his super sayian thing and immediately got grabbed by an oni, obviously not having any of your shit.
anyone got it?
>>335856154
well considering it is a game loosely based on a real person and events, AND based on an unfinished movie script, I imagine William will be the main character the story revolves around but there will likely be a few alternate characters, possibly unlockable.
I can also forsee some kind of oni character or costume swap being a thing too.
speaking of which, the oni designs are pretty great. I mean sure it's the same 3 or so ones everywhere, but man they look good
>>335860792
I'd probably play the last of us and heavy rain as well since I never had a PS3.
So 4 games.
>>335849032
>Did PS4 get a second game?
Yes, and they're both Demon's Souls
>>335860890
>doesn't seem

>>335860697
You should wait for the new model to come out.
And then wait a few more years so there are actual games to play.
> 5/6
Fucking kill me. I have looked everywhere. Does anything happen if you get them all?
>>335860831
The timing doesn't always line up and most of the time they are in close proximity to one another.
>>335860919
Stamina bars, fighting giant creatures while cooperating, etc
this game looks like a mix of Onimusha and Dark souls. With Onimusha being the OG souls game to begin with.
>>335860996
... What new model? I've been living under a rock for the past month or so. The 4.5 / PS4k isnt a meme?
>>335860958
>I have not played the game: the post
Anyone playing thia game like dark souls has come here complaining that it is bad. It isn't dark souls it just tricks you into thinking it is
So is there more weapon types other than Spears, Swords and Axes?
>>335854174
Do you work for Koei Tecmo? I see you in every fucking Nioh thread.
>>335861180
A scythe most likely, I hope there are nunchucks or make unarmed viable
>>335861053
That must make Monhun a copy of Double Dragon.
>>335861012
What others besides the ones near the end of the DLC? The ones in Mergo's Loft are far apart.
>>335860958
>Yes, and they're both Demon's Souls
So they are great games? Good to know
>>335861002
For the second area, I found the last one right beside the house you move towards after killing your first cyclops and the ninjas near him
You should see the house where you go up the steps and see two zombies on the backside, next to it is a box that you break to find the Kodama
do you get anything for killing these red-named revenants?
>using your spirit animal with an axe
Oh god damn. It fucking staggers oni like it is nothing. I feel like a giant bully honestly its so unfair to them.
>>335861296
>scythe
God no blease.
>>335861180
There's some art that points towards a Kusarigama.
>>335861292
No, it's just the first game I have actually enjoyed in a long time.
>>335859889
you do know she dies right? she wont give you more than a few, which you will undoubtedly use up when you first encounter the enemy in the Nightmare frontier, and again in mensis.
also
>use sedative
>winter lantern takes the opportunity to grab me and 1 shot me
or
>use sedative
>start hitting tanky as fuck winter lantern
>no time to dodge, use sedative before I pop dodge and keep hitting
they are a shit enemy because its not just frenzy, (which is worse if youve amassed insight, so the game punishes you for being saving it up for when you need it) but because if it isnt their frenzy it's the fact that their only other attack, which you have to contend with when getting close to them in a frenzy field- is an instant kill grab
>>335861387
I fought one and they dropped 2 purples
>>335861387
they drop items just like normal enemies
but you might as well be killing normal enemies and progressing in the game
>>335861395
They need to nerf the damage but make them last longer
>>335860019
you can easily sneak past that oni from the checkpoint near the door
>>335861180
We don't know yet.
Personally I'm hoping for a small sword or dagger that lets you move super fast.
This game's stamina system is fucking horrid and will make or break me buying this thing.
>Alpha has a puppy
>TGS demo had a Wolf
Oh wow there are more spirit animals in the final game then.
>>335861406
Its some scythe with a ball and chain based on the concept art. There will be subweapons like hammers
>>335861603
why horrid
>>335860487
>>335860890
only issue ive had is that when i summon a dude, MY enemies teleport around, which is unsettling as fuck
>>335861603
Ki pulse man
>>335861292
It's just Lucifer, some tripfaggot from /dsg/ and then /bbg/ and sometimes /wfg/.
>>335861428
You know you're just making yourself sound like a shitter, right? You suck at the game and are blaming it, instead of yourself.
>>335860889
Anyone?
>>335861603
there's nothing wrong with the stamina system
stop wearing heavy armor, using high stance and playing like a sperg
>>335861603
It needs some tweaking but is not horrid. Use Ki-Pulse.
>>335861701
different guy here, I don't understand how Ki Pulse works, can you explain?
>>335861725
Heavy armor is op though you wont stagger
>>335861180
All I know is they better have a god damn kanabo and a wakizashi.
>>335861616
Oh that's a kusari-gama. Scythe made me think of the two-handed ones that get thrown into Souls games.
PCfat here. Serious question, since I see so many of Nioh threads. How good is the game. Like how is the combat? Slow, fast, simple, complex? I like the souls games a lot, ever since Demon's Souls on my PS3. I've heard this game is a lot like them, is it true, or are people just memeing because both are apparently hard? I also like games like DMC, Ninja Gaiden, Bayonetta, and evenGod of War. I'm really on the fence about getting a ps4, since the only game I actually care about is BB, but if this is good, along with Nier, which will be great, and Deep Down, if it ever comes out, I would buy a ps4 in a heartbeat.
Is there a way to be able to always face the enemy while locked on to him? Or is it really free run?
>>335861721
Some of them are hidden in boxes. You have to break them.
>Stances remind me of Way of the Samurai
>they are still not as deep as in that game.
Japanese swordplay is so interesting.
>>335861831
Slightly move the analouge stick instead of all the way which causes you to run
>>335861762
Basically your ki recovers in a way that if you hit R1 after doing a combo, you can regain your ki faster
>>335861762
Press the stance button when the stamina bar you have used starts to fill up with blue. It restores some stamina. Do it perfectly and you do a ki burst which restores all stamina you used and dispells the yokai realm puddles
>>335861762
After a combo you will see white bar where you stamina was before like bloodborne. Wait for it to fill up and press r1 you will gain your stamina back. Too early and you will gain less. Too late and you wont get any at all. You do a ki pulse when dodging in low stance
>>335861428
Or just don't deal with them, and stack frenzy resist all day. You can get 500 frenzy resist easy and they become a joke.
So, I noticed that in addition to R1, using a dash in low stance, and using a finisher to a combo in high stance can trigger Ki Pulse.
Does Mid stance have something similar?
>>335861824
the combat is fast and more complex than souls combat
it has a lot of similarities to the souls games, but it also has plenty of differences
>>335849032
Tried searching for a download for the Demo and couldn't find anything on the internet.
Where do you get this? Is there a torrent?
>>335861824
i think it's great. it draws inspiration from souls, but does enough different to stand on its own. Basically if you go in like you would ina souls game you'd lose.
One of the big differences is how stamina works. It it empties, you're left vulnerable to catch your breath for a second or two. Whereas in souls you can roll until it empties, run abit and then roll some more. That's not an option here. Luckily the enemies have the same issue, and can be staggered or be out of breath if you empty their stamina. The weapons are distinctly different, and each weapon has 3 stances. It's also samurai as fuck.
I didn't like souls games, but i'd heartily recommend this from the demo alone.
>>335861824
It feels fast and it is a lot more complex than dark souls. Even though I really don't like dark souls I love this game and it feels more like onimusha or even ninja gaiden in terms of gameplay and difficulty instead of dark souls
>>335849032
I did it, I got my fucking Mark. Holy shit this game is a Day 1 buy. Now I can relax and dick around on the Ninja level until May 6th.
>>335861831
Press l1 or move analog slightly. Latter is better since you gain ki
>>335862076
>team ninja game
>on PC
LOL???
>>335861641
It's inconsistent and doesn't make sense at times, at least not for me.
>if you have 1/5 ki left, pressing L1 to guard (not block an incoming attack, just raise sword to block) you lose all ki and get stunned
This is fucking stupid because this doesn't even cost ki to do. It slows down ki recovery, it doesn't cost ki
>if you're out of ki you can still use a heavy attack and grapple enemies, even though you technically have no energy to do so
I think i'm forgetting some. Horrid probably wasn't the right word, but it would certainly work better if it was removed or revamped. As it is, I don't like it.
Also I'm running into a bunch of moments where Willaim doesn't respond to button commands or do things he should be doing
>refuses to stab enemies when they're downed, he just does the typical heavy attack and does nothing
>sometimes he doesn't heal when I press the up pad
>grapple doesn't work half the time
yeah, I know "alpha", but it gets me killed a lot and it's fucking annoying.
>>335861701
>>335861725
Ki pulse isn't really that useful. I hardly need it because my ki recovers so quickly as is.
>>335862325
What do you mean its not useful? Thats how I beat all the yokai
>>335862325
>if you have 1/5 ki left, pressing L1 to guard (not block an incoming attack, just raise sword to block) you lose all ki and get stunned
That isn't true.
And Ki pulse is the single most important part of fighting enemies. If you run out of stamina the reason is you aren't Ki pulsing enough
>>335861824
The combat is slow and methodical, it's also fast and very actioney depending entirely on your playstyle and the stances you choose to use. The combat mechanic is solid and the difficulty is refreshing.
>>335862417
I just told you how it isn't that useful. Backing off and letting it recover a bit is already fast enough. I hardly ever find moments where I need ki pulse outside of smashing a boss in the face when it has no ki.
>PS4 finally gets a second game
>it's another Dark Souls clone
It's actually so fucking funny.
At least you guys didn't buy a Wii U I guess.
>onis kick my ass all the time
>finally finish level 1
>enter level 2 excited
>90% of enemies are onis
Man From is STILL pumping out Souls games?
>>335862561
Low stance muh man. Unless it's ninjer oni, then mid-stance.
>>335862561
Be patient and wait for openings, clear the area so you can move around wasting its stamina when the oni sprints towards you.
>>335862558
>it's another Dark Souls clone
>I didn't play the game
How cute.
>>335862545
you can play without using ki pulse just fine
but using it makes the game faster
