Nioh 3

[Jase]

I can't see a thread for this one, quite surpised but maybe I'm just missing it.

Anyone playing the Demo?

I've been playing it for the last couple of days and it really is good, the open world exploration is great and the combat is fun.

Granted in can be hard in places but it's just a case of learning what happening, the shrines (respawn points) are in good places so not that far to run back when you die.

It's out on Friday and a must get for me.

You probably have 1 of them from an Epic giveaway

Another of those games that I should absolutely love for its build depth, setting etc - but actually hate because I just cant get my head around the difficulty of the combat.

Same here. I tried to play Nioh 2 and couldn't get out of the first level. I found the whole press a button to re-capture ki/stamina the worst part, so I would always run out of stamina and be a sitting duck for the enemy.

Graphically, Nioh 3 looks exactly the same as Nioh 2. Which was a bit of a disappointment.

Same, even though I've owned both of them for years. Too scared I guess lol

No thanks

Enjoyed the first game and sunk quite a bit of time into it, the second seemingly had the improved/updated systems and should have been better, but I just couldn't get into it. The other one that came out based on the Chinese three kingdoms era I found to be awful and was thankful it was on gamepass.

I'll give the demo a try and see how this one is, 81gb is nuts though for a demo.

Nioh 2 is one of my favourite games so I've been looking forward to 3.

I've enjoyed what I've played of the demo. I just wanted to see if I was going to enjoy the new samurai/ninja switching and the open world. I've stopped playing it now as I've got the full game pre-ordered for Friday.

Regarding the £65 asking price - it is steep but the game can be had much cheaper on Loaded.

This is getting very positive reviews generally.

Stil so tempted but I know I wont get past the first boss - and luckily the price helps to keep me away from it.
