Bad_Mojo 12/28/18 2:00:19 AM #8:	I think it's a great game, but it's not for me. I think if you like games like Dark Souls, it's an easy pick up and well worth the sales price.

Romulox28 12/28/18 11:44:04 AM #20:	i really disliked Nioh. it feels like a bunch of devs got together in a board room, made a list of as many dark souls qualities as they could think of (currency you lose upon death, bonfires, shortcuts, challenge, etc) and crammed them all into an action game, without any thought as to what most people really like about the dark souls franchise. as i played nioh more and more, i realized that what i love about dark souls is not necessarily the bonfires and soul system and all that, it's the level design, bosses, enemy variety, atmosphere, etc. nioh kind of falls apart in all those categories imo --- https://imgur.com/LhwwG <cite>Romulox28 posted [p:914825361] in Nioh is 50...
