Where to start?! well Nioh is kind of a complicated game. It takes serious skill to get through missions and even more skills to defeat bosses.The game is similar to Dark Souls. Gameplay is easy to adapt to. The only thing i kinda disliked is the fact that multiplayer can only be achieved by cups that our found after you defeat monsters. overall the game is addicting and fun. good luck!

This game is very hard but it is one of the best I've played with ps4.

Team Ninja is back. If you are a fan of Dark Souls or Bloodbourne this is the game for you. The difficulty is there except the combat is even more deep. You have three different combat stances that you can switch through fluidly in the middle of a fight. With each new level I find myself understanding the mechanics even better. Can't recommend this game enough. It's a must own.

If you've heard anything about this game you've heard the comparisons to Dark Souls. It's faster, closer to Bloodborne than the mainline titles, with separate "levels" compared to the open sprawling world of Souls. Lots of fun, interesting weapon styles with five different weapon types and three styles for each of those five types. Highly recommended if you're a fan of Souls games.

The graphics, story, gameplay mechanics are all great. This is a must for anybody that loves strategic hack and slash games.

Best adventure since dark souls . It has the weapons, action, you will enjoy

This is a AAA game, much better than the souls series, souls tries to hard, Nioh tries to put your face into the dirt and keep it there.

Nioh is akin to Dark Souls in difficulty, creativity, and combat style. But that is about where the comparisons end. Nioh has a fantastic combat system, with skills for each weapon type (5 weapon types in total). Each weapons handle fairly differently from the others, giving interesting and unique play styles. There is also a Ninjutsu, and Onmyo. While Ninjutsu is fairly standard items to use (Kunai, Shurikens, poisons, and paralytics), Onmyo, which is basically Niohs version of Magic, has many different charms and effect from enchanting your weapons with certain elements (fire, water, earth, lightning, wind) to cursing enemies to be slower, weaker, or have less defense. As opposed to a large open world, the game is broken down in missions, each sector of Japan has multiple missions, main quest and side quests to take on. Weapons and armor are random, similar to a diablo style loot system. White (common), yellow (uncommon), blue (rare), purple (exotic), and green(divine) item will drop as you play. Each will have a variety of buffs on them, again randomly generated. NG+ mode triggers after you finish the final stage, but allows your current world with all stages beaten to be accessible. Loot grinding for better gear makes the game highly replayable. Add into all that a brutal (but fair) difficulty and over the top bosses for a fantastic game.

Nice looking Dark World Exciting action fun Intense at Time If anyone remembers the PS2 game franchise Onimusha its really similar to it

The game is great the graphics the fighting the story all good

I'm liking this game. Generally I wasn't a fan of the torture style of game play that this game has to offer, but after giving Bloodborne a second chance and falling in love with that (on my third play), I decided to give Nioh more than just a demo try. I like it. It is hard, but once you get into the grove of this style of game, it isn't as bad as you can first make it out to be. I have yet to finish it, but I'm working on this and two other games. Dark Souls Remastered, and Bloodborne.

Great game that is very challenging. A lot like Dark Souls, and Bloodborne.

Like dark souls, kinda. But better gameplay and based in historical Japan.

Intriguing story. Great beautiful game. Highly recommended.

A unique game with fun combat, an awesome Japanese story element with a lot of fantasy elements.

Plays just like dark souls and blood borne, very fun a bit hard at times

After being completely addicted to the entire Souls series, and yes Demon Souls as well. This game brought about a whole new set of challenges, and while yes each area was a separate mission instead of one giant land mass.. It still ramped up the AI difficulty, and the fighting styles just helped add to it.. Definitely a game worth playing if you like a good challenge.

The game has a very steep learning curve. Some of the early bosses are much harder than they should be. If you like the Souls series games, you will like this game.

Great game! A lot to do, great story and great graphics!!

Great game Great graphics and story is amazing nice action adventure
