He was invited over by Koei Tecmo. I don't think he was able to play the full game - only a few levels/areas. The gameplay is looking great though.Wait? How is he playing this already? I refuse to watch for spoiler reasons. I’m going into this as blind as possible
Available right now. 7 PM ET here. Can’t wait to dive in for an hour or so later tonightI'm glad it carries over, can't freaking wait!!
I was avoiding pretty much everything until I saw that gameplay showcase you shared. Anticipation is off the charts!
I can't wait to get into the weeds of the combat/builds. Nothing has yet matched Nioh 2 in that regard for me.
The stances are in the game too. Once you get the samurai locks you can put points into each of the stances for new abilities.Played for about an hour. Been a long time since I played a Nioh title, and struggling using the face buttons for attack. I remember in the first Nioh trying to customize the controls to put attack as the R1/R2 buttons, but it fucked up options for the ki counter and ended up having to switch back.
I do like the streamlined stances with samurai and ninja stances, instead of low/med/high stances. Those always felt like the move sets were to big and struggled with some of the later skills that swapped stances.
Can't wait for the weekend to sink some more time into it.
