Customers are saying

Customers express satisfaction with Nioh's engaging gameplay, compelling story, and immersive setting in feudal Japan. Many praise the variety of weapons and intense action, although some find the game's difficulty challenging and the initial learning curve steep. A few players noted that level design could be improved, and some found the controls initially unusual. Overall, the positive feedback on gameplay and story outweighs concerns about difficulty and other minor issues.

    It is a good game but I am not a fan of the combat system and the recovering of souls

    This game is hard but rewarding. You will be challenged but once you conquer that challenge you will feel great. Very much a Dark Souls type of game play.

    This game is extremely challenging, but also very engrossing! It takes some time to get used to the controls, but superb graphics and storyline keep you interested. Would absolutely recommend this game to people looking for a fun challenge!

    Fast-paced Dark Souls

    This is my first venture in the "Soulsborne" genre of games, but Nioh is not made by From Software, the makers of Dark Souls and Blooodborne. Nioh takes the difficulty and framework from Dark Souls and Bloodborne and adds an incredible sense of speed and a unique Japanese setting. I recommend this game, along with Bloodborne, to anyone wanting to dip their toes into this "incredibly difficult yet fair action adventure game with RPG elements" genre, and especially for those who like fast paced combat (I personally think the 3 Dark Souls games are a bit slow, excluding Bloodborne).

    Picked up for pretty cheap and its a great game once you get into it. Pretty difficult at first but much more lenient once passed the learning curb.

    Great game for fans of Dark Souls and Bloodborne. As with the Souls games Nioh has a high difficulty, so if you don't like hard games it might be best to avoid this one.

    I’m enjoying Nioh just like I enjoyed Ninja Gaiden, so if you enjoyed that game you’ll enjoy this as well.

    Just fight. Great. Kinda mindless, but great. Don't worry about the comparisons to that "other" souls fighting game. This one is much more fair - but not forgiving...

    I was surprised by this one, if Dark Souls is a series you enjoy look no further as this shares many similarities. This has been one of my favorite titles this year.

    Take the combat of Ninja Gaiden, the difficulty of Demon Souls, and the loot collection of Diablo. You now have Nioh, a spectacular game and challenge that is sublime.

    If your a gamer that likes the dark souls video games then this game is right up your ally. Though you will die as many if not more times like in dark souls you learn to be patience and the value of a good defense. Great video game.
