In fairness, I imagine our accent isn't what people typically expect when they think of an Irish accent. In the region of NI I'm from it's essentially a halfway point between Irish and Scottish. My guess would be that the VA director(s) told him to do a more southern sounding one.
Nioh also takes place before the Ulster Plantation, which is where both our accent and the dialect of Ulster Scots originate from, so I guess it wouldn't really make sense if his VA used his normal accent.

I don't know how anyone could complain about the loot system, you fags were probably the reason the durability from the first game's Alpha was removed and replaced with the practically nonsensical familiarity stat. It's been a while since I've played so I'm not perfectly remembering the names/color off hand but all you had to do was take the lower tier loot (white and yellow was it?) and sell that shit, and then take higher tier loot (blue and purple?) and break it down into crafting materials (mostly the divine chunk things). Then you have the Blacksmith forge you a decent weapon, and use the chunks to reforge it a handful of times until you get some useful attributes applied to it. Then (and here's the nonsensical part) use a couple Whetstones on your new weapon to instantly max out "familiarity." Enjoy your OP gear.
Oh, and you could also spend some of the faction point things to try to randomly drop a decent weapon to reforge instead of making it at the Blacksmith.

Alternatively, just avoid anything that isn't the highest tier and makes your defensive/offensive number higher and just move on. I do that in diablo clones all the time which use the same loot system. The most ADHD player doesn't need to utilize the blacksmith or donating or any of the other mechanics that involve loot. I've seen more grievous problems in other games get hand-waved away but Nioh seems to just reduce some people to complete retards.

The problem with Nioh's enemy roster wasn't the variety, it was there, it was the fact the game is so long that you fight them dozens if not hundreds of times. Nioh gives you a shit tonne of content, but it burns me out fast. I couldn't even finish Way of the Strong because of that and there are three more modes above that. As good as it is that Nioh more than gives you your money's worth, quality will always be better than quantity. Weird as it sounds, I want Nioh 2 to be shorter than Nioh so they can deliver with the quality but not stretch it out too thin.

Tbh I only just found out that there was now footage for the game as I checked the thread out.
It seems up in the air for being either a sequel or prequel as it is still in the Sengoku period before (((Ieyasu))) wins in Osaka but I think one of the vids above showed some armor that looked like Muneshige's.
Anyways I'll still insist in seeing more of the Samurai characters as the appeal of that fanservice is rather alluring

I doubt that. Amrita was never explained to do away with aging, John Dee is old and his mising eye allowed the Amrita to make him the spymaster and information agent.

I brought up +attack because its one of the more laborious grinds for armor, as you need to find gloves with high +attack, get them to max bond, and then do this for every armor piece.

What is there to doubt, why would someone who didn't play the game know about a weapon that had S scaling.
You get the shards from killing slimes which you do with pyromancy in the hallway right next to the bonfire in the sewers.
You get the chunks by killing the moonlight butterfly which is the path leading to Seeth.
You get the slab by exploring in the drained New Londo ruins.
That character took me nearly a 100 hours to get everything perfect.

+Attack inheritables are fucking useless you mongloid. You get what, +250 from putting it on all your gear? Endgame gear is going to have 2500 to 8000 attack just from the weapon. You're getting maybe, maybe, +10% damage from +250 attack, at the very lowest end.
Instead, you could inherit +13.9% Received Firearms Damage Reduction on to your gloves, legs, and boots, reforge it onto your helm and chest, and become nearly fucking immune to everything that's not a melee attack, including cannon yokai, Date Masamune's ranged elemental bullshit, and the fucking fire trails Wheelmonks leave on the ground. Or you could put +15% running speed on all your gear and turn into sanic. Or you could put +14.9% Defense From Behind on all your gear and become the amazing turtle man, turning his back to become immune to damage.

The armor system is a grind because you have to hunt for your specific armor set with at least 2 things that are for your build then you hunt for items with attributes you want and then have to rank up that so that you can transfer the attribute.

No, you kill the boss until they throw up their Smithing text and then you just make the armor set that you want. Then you go into the Reforge menu and Temper the exact effects you want onto that armor using Umbracite you get from completing Twilight Missions or helping people in co-op. The only thing you're correct about is that you have to find armor with inheritables in the wild, but if you head on over to Spirit Stone Huntress in Way of the Strong there's a gigantic field of revenants behind the shrine where people have suicided while wearing gear with good inheritables; +20 CCD weapons, +13.9 RFD helmets, TWDx2 gloves and the like. Then you put the weapons or armor on and use 7 Whetstones (drop from everywhere and you're drowning in them) or 7 Nikawa Glue (craftable using a material purchasable with Glory from the teashop) to instantly max the familiarity. Once you've got your customized forged gear, you take it into the Abyss, defile it, and complete 3 floors to bring it up to your level when you leave.
It's a long process, but almost all of it is under your control. The only parts of Nioh's equipment system where you actually have to grind RNG drops is getting the smithing texts in the first place, and to get accessories with good effects because you can't reforge accessories.

I hate to say it, but I think you're right. Hayashi only seemed to be able to polish the foundation Itagaki made. When Itagaki was gone, and Hayashi had to make his own foundation with NG3, he shit the bed and screwed up bigtime.
Sigma he streamlined things, improved a lot of parts of the game with MINOR tweaks (can jump and shoot arrows, etc). This is what I mean by polish, all he did was take an existing work and give it small tweak improvements without touching anything else, and it was a better game.
With Ninja Gaiden 2, so much of the flow of the game was changed. In NG2 vanilla there were many fast paced enemies on screen that led to frantic twitch gameplay, you always felt in danger but because you were killing so many deadly enemies you felt quite powerful yourself. In NG2 Sigma, they made fewer enemies on the screen but gave them more health, when they throw you it ends up being a one hit kill (unless you're at full health) that makes it feel quite unfair. When you use an izuna drop on them, which would normally kill normal enemies, they will survive. Additionally, the fewer enemies on screen mean fewer essences in the air to charge up your ultimate attacks, whose invincibility frames you must rely on if you want to survive while dishing out kills. All this ruins the flow of the game, plus destroys the sense of empowerment the player feels.
Razor's Edge fixed many of the flow problems present in NG3, but it still has problems that Razor's Edge couldn't remedy like bad boss fights or those alchemist wizards always blocking attacks, etc.
Such a sad way to go. I thought the series could be saved, but now it seems like it's being outright ignored.

Having just finished all of the content. I can say, what's in the alpha is basically more of the same but better. The ability to grapple yokai is fantastic, the yokai forms feel pretty distinct from each other unlike living weapon which was just "what weapon you have".
Tons of smaller QoL improvements, and the bosses feel far more difficult than the first game because of the big ass yokai realm mechanic.
I was worried that they'd butcher it to appeal to… someone, but instead it feels like the first game but better. If they keep it up, and they don't change jack shit the game is gonna be my personal GOTY. I do want to see what else they're gonna change though. Fun demo/10

Just beat the first level. Some quick thoughts
Game is fun. It’s very similar to the 1st game with some new stuff
There are cursed and blessed weapons now. Cursed weapons have a bar that fills up and when it does you get a bonus element damage and the weapon talks to you and begs you to kill more
Blessed weapons do bonus Yokai damage
You can do the out of stamina executions on yokai now which is cool
The new transformations function similar to the 1st game but they have special abilities depending on which type.
You turn into either a big hulking one with a club and a parry, a fast one with daggers and a teleport, or a wizard one with ranged abilities.
The dual hatchets are kinda cool because their charged heavy attacks are ranged
Odachi heavy stance is still OP. Swords and spears seem the stance
The human enemies seem the same with one new dual hatchet guy. There are a shit ton of new yokai it seems
Overall, I think it’s pretty good.

I think you could do something like that in the 1st game, so pretty likely. The different forms all have unique movesets but they’re kind of barebones in that regard. They have unique executions though. It seems easier to get the form too, I was able to activate it twice in one boss fight
>>16501095
I don’t think you could do that
There’s actually a really cool section where you walk into a permanent yokai circle and to stop the stamina degradation, you have to kill the yokai is causing it. The world becomes gray and your oni horns appear. I think the idea is that the yokai is so full of hatred that it’s demon powers are corrupting the area around it. There were two sections like that in the first level

MonHun was a homely cashcow for them and I guess it also helps the head honcho of that franchise is the son of the CEO and brother of the president (the Tsujimotos).
Basara's a series whose most sold entry was about 500K but is, or at least used to be, a cashcow of fujoshi-oriented merchandise. Tragically underneath a series that's probably the female audience equivalent of DOAX, there's a top notch art direction, fantastic OST and core gameplay that evolved to become the closest a hack n' slash can be to a CUHRAYZEEEE game that got two shitty half-baked localizations and the average gaijin never got a chance to see what the series strong points are.

Kind of off topic sidenote here but I get the same feeling from Nioh that I got when I first played Demon's Souls.

Nioh is even more forgiving since you can store excess amirta safely as a silbar ingot. Aditionally there is a consumable item that you can use to summon your "blood stain" back to you with no loss and there are two guardian spirits that will protect a portion of your amrita even if you die twice.

Nioh is incredibly forgiving in that respect. You don't need amrita to buy things, you don't have a constant need for money/souls to repair things, and you have those options to prevent losing it.

Tonfa Gun activates when you do a Devastation or Crimson Lotus attack and press the button again. So XYY or YXX. The Sarutobi armor is worth using because it gives you Parry Disabled vs Guarding Enemy (Tonfa), which makes your regular attacks not bounce off when you hit a blocking enemy. This is really important for Tonfa because it lets you actually use Devastation and Crimson Lotus vs guarding enemies while in mid or low stance, as well as other combo moves like Shove or Heavenly Chain that deal massive Ki damage to blocking enemies.

You just described Tonfa's playstyle. You can't beat on them for literally forever because you're limited by Ki, but if you get good at Flux you can keep hitting people for a long time. Demon Dance gives you iframes when you Ki pulse, Kannagi lets you use Demon Dance to animation cancel Skill attacks, and Pulverize lets you start a Skill attack immediately after Demon Dancing. You can stay on enemies for a very long time, beating them out of Ki and iframing through their attacks, if you get the timing right.

However, these are "Work in progress" mods. In order to use this gook's "WIP" mods, you need to pay up on his patreon.
I'm not posting pictures of his Fuku mod because he really fucked up her face.

I am afraid that all the new mobs were already shown in alpha and nioh2 will have just slightly bigger monster variety than nioh1.

Nioh 1. Is it normal that I get same armor with same stats from remnants or my game is bugged?

Yes, they have equipped gear you can see it when you summon them.

This is very common in the game. Its why a lot of people dislike the loot system.

>warrior of the west
Its the basic shitters set. Newbies use it as its the earliest armor set that can get a good synergy going on but end up dying frequently because they don't know how to play.
You probably got your previous set from a revenant of a player who got his set from another revenant to continue this lineage of shitters.
>>16507981
It has nothing to do with the loot system.

She most likely used her "feminine wiles" to convince Masamune and Yukimura to do things so probably not.

I was kinda hoping Will would have to save her from Yodogimi's Nine-tails form and she'd thank you by being your cocksleeve, but instead she just went poof into a portal. Pretty anti-climactic tbh.

Why does the odachi have the length of a spear, damage of a hammer, speed of a katana?
This weapon is disgustingly strong, how the ever loving fuck did KT think this was a good idea? Usually some weapons have inherent weakness but not the Odachi.
2Axe? Has a bad time in the mid-range, really strong from afar and really strong from up close. Does DPS when left to their own devices but no enemy is going to let you beat up them.
Kat? Zero cons. Good damage, good range, good speed, good options. Great in all situations.
Spear? Great range, sucks up close. Damage is mediocre, but you trade damage for range.
Odachi? As fast as the katana, has the reach of the spear, has the highest damage output in the game, excels at everything.
I was hoping to rock the Odachi and a secondary weapon to supplement it's weakness, but there are ZERO weakness for the Odachi.
Moving on to the new skill system, 90% of the tree is useless bloat noone will use and the other 10% is essential shit like Relentless I, II, III, Kick, Ki Burst, etc.
Weapon Switch Ki Pulse is still shit.
Ninjutsu and Magic seem to be a good place now, sloth isn't disgusting OP anymore and there's a wide array of weapon buffs now that excel in specific things. Still haven't played with Ninjutsu yet, but I still got time to try it. Already clocked in 20+ hours in the alpha.

It has no utility and a really dull moveset. The reach doesn't matter because it doesn't have a moveset to utilize it and its very slow even in low stance to the point where you cannot even stunlock a flying bolt reliably with it.

That shoulder charge move that wrecks ki can be spammed near indefinitely on revenants though. It was also the only way I could do a no-damage run on most human bosses.

Any tips for fighting this slut? I'm in the Abyss right now trying to get pass her and it's fucking hard, she one shots me with her amrita ranged attack, it's easy to dodge when she uses it once, but once she starts using 3 times in a row I get fucked.
>>16512875
Is Moonlit Snow still in there? Also I've always thought Odachi were OP on Nioh, massive damage, ki damage and reach, maybe it doesn't have a very versatile skillset, but it gets the job done and it makes the game easy for me, I sort of struggle with any other weapon.

I have never played Nioh before, but I got an alpha key and the game is fun. I've been using the double hatchets and I am trying to get a hang of the spear. I am kind of struggling to ki pulse on a consistent basis. This really makes me want to play the original.
