Ok so yes this game does borrower some elements from DS but it's much more than just a clone. Great game, you definitely won't be disappointed.

Nioh is similar to the Souls series in which it is very difficult and punishing to the player, if you're up for the challenge I recommend it.

Nioh, like the Souls games that inspired it, is a game that is as fun in its gameplay as it is rewarding in its brutal difficulty.

I got the game for the feel it has, like the days of Onimusha. Similar in some ways but different in others, yet still a great game.

Nioh is very similar to the Dark Souls series but with a bit of Onimusha mixed in. If you're a fan of the Souls games then definitely give this one a try as it's a nice twice on the formula.

This game is fast paced, brutal, but fair. If you get frustrated easily and are impatient, you might want to try it before you buy.
