Usually, when creating sequels, developers try to introduce new mechanics, correct past shortcomings and develop the strengths of the game. All this is not about Nioh 2. The sequel turned out to be so similar to its predecessor that some won’t even be able to tell them apart. We tried to find the difference and are now ready to share our findings.
Nioh 2

well, it’s a strange statement, it’s like saying that a linear first-person shooter won’t be able to evoke the emotions that wolfenstein 3d did
So that you understand how much damage your weapon does and what type. Seems obvious enough. If you don’t like it, turn it off.
The first part was my first (and, so far, only) Souls-like game. I still remember how the first mission took place all night for 6 hours. I will definitely buy a second one!
I completely agree that Nioh is a very good alternative to Souls.
Yes, Nioh doesn’t have that level of elaboration of locations, that “Souls” atmosphere, but… In terms of the dynamics of the combat system… DS is just a sack of potatoes compared to Nioh.
Yes, a completely different game design, lack https://slotsandcasinocasino.co.uk/withdrawal/ of RPG elements, or for you, Souls are checkpoints that, when resting, restore enemies and just difficult games? The fact that the game was made by Fromy does not automatically make it similar to Souls, especially considering that Sekiro was initially made as a new Tenchu (a grappling hook, stealth elements and various ninja devices (here a prosthesis) say hello). Otherwise, with the same success, you can write Armored Core into Souls, and Ninja Blade, and Otogi (which, by the way, has much more in common with Souls than Sekiro, but no one has heard of it, because Fromy made it exclusively for the Xbox Original).
Soulsliking does not mean a repetition of the plot of Dark Souls, just a subgenre of action games with typical combat, bonfires and leveling up
<= являюсь преданным фанатом первой части, изучено и пройдено всё вдоль и поперёк, закрыт 999 лвл бездны и т.д.
after the alpha and beta, I decided for myself that I would take it at the first discounts, because I was not attracted to the full price
Beta came in and I want to play to the fullest, but..
My ear caught the phrase that in the first Nio all the bosses were different and interesting. And I immediately want to ask – what kind of bosses were there, different and interesting?? IMHO, of course, but in the first Nio there are almost the most uninteresting bosses in soulslices ever – both visually and in terms of gameplay. Well, they just can’t stand any comparison with Sauces/Bloodborn/Sekiro.
In the same Sekiro, the Owl, the Demon of Hate and Isshin go in a row – and everyone feels completely different in battle. All bosses in Nio feel the same, they don’t have interesting movesets or attacks, they’re difficult not because you have to learn the patterns exactly and not make mistakes. It’s just that almost everyone has one-shot attacks (or, conventionally, one-shot attacks), and a wagon of health – and the whole difficulty is that there is a risk of making one single mistake, getting hit by a bomb and flying to the fire. It’s the same with the visuals – if you discard five hundred different, but identical ninjas/samurai, then you’ll be left with a few so-so designed devils.
Personally, I only remember Onryoki – he is very “sauce-based”, and even with two phases (this is a rarity in Nio), he actually sold the game to me. But after that I didn’t get any supplements. So I’m curious – do you have a boss in Nio that you particularly remember and liked??
I played the demo of the second part, it’s very addictive. I tried to play the first one when it was released on PSN – it was somehow too dark and gloomy, even in open spaces. The second part is much more colorful and neon, even in dark caves
Has almost nothing in common with Souls except for checkpoints of statues, so we can recommend Ninja Gaiden (the same people who did Nioh) based on the principle there are checkpoints in the form of shrines.
Scales, scales, but it’s easier to determine whether an enemy has resistance to a certain element or not, plus, as was written above, all this can be turned off.
In any case, soulslicks will not be able to evoke the fountain of emotions that Dark Souls once evoked
