NEW NIOH THREAD

Here a new thread since no one has made another cause we all to busy playing

Old thread Progress:
I rebeat the first stage with boat demon and just completed the sunset are with the 2 red tongue demons as the final bosses.

I have to admit those bosses would have been much harder to fight in the alpha, but the new stamina system lets you run around damn near endlessly while they whiff attacks

Is England in Japan for a reason or did he just wash up there and decide to clean house?

>It's a "Go through the fucking boring part of the beta demo so you can get to the part you care about" episode.

>Featuring the 'New' shitty lock-on system.

He's in pursuit of someone (Presumably the shapeshifting demon guy in the E3 trailer), the background for the first level says that he intentionally sailed there.

Though curiously, William in Nioh seems to actually be an Irishman, as opposed to English (The real William-sama was from Kent). Though I guess him being Irish fits in with his Celtic spiritfu.

>can't play because it can't verify the license
Fucking what? Only way to do it is to set this as my Primary PS$, which I can't do it because they've given like 3 faulty PS4s and you can only do that every 6 fucking months.

The wind blows. It is 7 in the morning, William-sama woke up to the cold morning. He got up, and went to the bathroom to wash his face. William-sama live in the traditional Dazaifu shrine, he only fought in a room though. The young couple is nice enough to let him stay in their shrine. William-sama grepped his kimono and wear it like a proper nihonjin, he walk to a window and smell the fresh nihonjin morning. “Ah, konbanwa anatas. What beautiful morning desu.” William-sama zoned out looking at the beach from his room. William-sama went upstairs to greet the couple. “Ah, ohayou Muneshige-san and Ginchiyo-chan”. The couple replied him with a warm smile and proceed with their breakfast while inviting William-sama. Although William-sama can not understand them, he easily could read what the couple is trying to say, he is born with this talent. “Arigato.” William-sama said, he then went downstairs to take a few things. He took a bokken and a katana, the katana is hidden in his kimono and the bokken is on his obi, this is to avoid his weapons breaking as he was warned last time by conquerors. William-sama will be going on his usual morning walk to sightseeing the glorious nihonjin country. “Itadakimasu Muneshige-san and Ginchiyo-chan”, they gave him a mixed smile and a slightly confused expression.

Anyone managed to download the mark of the strong (or of the warrior) on NA psn? I get an error whenever i try to.

William-sama reached the village near the beach, he like to watch kodama playing as it is a something that can warm his pure heart. Suddenly, a sudden tremor. No, it’s more terrifying than that, it’s an earthquake, a huge one. The ground was shaking and beginning to crack, William-sama look at the kodama, they were running away terrified, “minna san! do not run around! Stay in place!” The kodama couldn’t understand what he was saying, he gestured what he was trying to say, he ordered the kodama to stay at the shrine as it is too difficult to find them all. But that was William-sama’s mistake, he look at the ship from afar. It was huge, a yokai is coming. William-sama widened his eyes and look at the kodama and yelled every Japanese word he knew “Arigatou gozaimasu! Gomenasai! Run away minna-san!” The kodama ran away, the oni is coming, it was at least 100ft tall. William-sama was ashamed with himself, he should have anticipated this, if he did the kodama would be far away by now. “sumimasen mina-san, it was my mistake”, he took his hidden katana and dual wield with the bokken and katana. As he ran towards the yokai trying to stop it, he uttered his last words. “Arigatou Tachibanas. For taking care of me” The onryoki strikes. A shout is heard; “I'm a Conqueror!”.

Japanese game material call him English, the developers probably gave Will an Irish deity given a lack of direct English analogues.

Not to mention Ireland was pretty much in England's grasp at the time.

Finally beat Muneshige. Feeling unstoppable.

I did a crude translation of the chap 1 of the manga.
From trailers it does seem like manga and game tell more or less the same story, if thats the case then William is in Japan to rescue celtic spirit from evil bald guy

This game is so fucking fun.

I didn't play the old demo, so I'm not sure about something. I just beat the Yoki thing in that one house and got the key that unlocks the door behind the house. I THINK I've been everywhere else, but I don't want to progress until I've found everything in the first area.

I found a second shrine and the shortcut back to the first one. I've looked around but I haven't really found much else.

Is there anything big I missed in the first area?

What secret?

Really hoping for a PC release for NIOH. Genuinely looks like a fun game.

>do twilight difficulty isle
>fire breathing heads rolling at me
send help

Downloaded my Strong just a second ago.

you can run through the area pretty fast. boss is still hard though

>tfw finally beaten the succubus after 20 tries
Fuck this bitch.

>evil bald guy

The guy who assumes Muneshige's form in the E3 trailer?

Is that Geralt?

I got the same error user kun.

Thanks, Nigel.

What should I put points into, Nioh Sup Forums?

Git Gud.

>2kat with built in lightning
>use water charm
>Summon fire doge

Oh boy, I fucking styled upon that fucking yokai ball chain boat fucker. The lightning debuff really slows his ass down.

William, Englishman chasing after his Celtic deity waifu.

Loosely based on the William Adams, the first English samurai.

Feels like theres tons of features that don't really add anything to the gameplay

I want to like it but it just feels really off to me and getting stunlocked to death sucks. I beat the first demo but I don't know if I have it in me to beat this one

if i get the mark of the conqueror form the alpha how do i skip the first mission in the beta? or what do i have to do?

That doesn't make any sense. Will you please fuck off?

Dex

The first three options are good, though you should put points in other places if you want to use more than just the katana.

>finally beat that cunt cant get my maek of the strong because fucking error

wtf lads

Not be American.

From what I've read, only affects Americans.

He is called Kerei or something like that.
He's got Williams little spirit waifu trapped in an amulet.

twitter.com/KoeiTecmoUS/status/768214535668899840

well, bummer

This is my spiritfu. There are many like it but this one is mine. My spiritfu is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my spiritfu is useless. Without my spiritfu I am useless. I must use my spiritfu true. I must cut straigther than my enemy, who is trying to kill me. I must cut him before he cuts me. I will. Before glorious NIPPON I swear this creed: my spiritfu and myself are defenders of my country, we are thee masters of my enemy, we are the saviors of my life. So be it, u ntil there is no enemy, but peace. SAYONARA.

Stamina. Gives you HP and Equip Load.

Everything in spirit!

I can't even download the beta at all, gives me an error. Tried another game and it worked, so it's just Nioh, the fug.

>cant receive the mark of the conquerer after redoing the first level again because its already purchased

reeeeeeee

I better be able to use her as a guardian spirit before the end of the game or something. I swear if they pull some shonen shit where I get her as a powerup before the last boss battle and can only use her then, I will be disappointed.

The store is shitting itself.

>can 't relearn stats
>spent 10 hours on one character

ffs I made my character wrong

You guys got any Nioh fanart?

William used her to fight the Onyroki in the original TGS rereveal trailer, it it's any consolation. They've used this screenshot in promotion since the alpha, so presumably we'll fight an Onyroki again.

>hit once
>stun locked because no stamina

Fucking why. The whole game is dulled down by having to manage your shitty stamina

So did they fuck up the game, and make it for casuals who think Dark Souls is hard?

When I try through the website, it tells me to check my transaction history, do I have to delete the alpha?

WHAT THE FUCK HANZO WHERE DID THAT CAT GO?

Some user drew William as Ken-Sama, but I don't have it saved.

I couldn't even download Super Puzzle fighter earlier.

He gives it to William in the manga, wonder if he will in the game too.

Really? She was really easy with the spear, i had much more trouble with onryoki.

Why has my bow stopped working . Won't aim with r2. If I equip a gun it works

What gives

Calm down kid. Don't forget your meds.

God damn the Onryoki feels 10 times harder this time. In the alpha I fucking stunlocked him to death but now I get hit by that stupid double spin every fucking time. Maybe I was overleveled last time. I'm level 10 now.

Can't bring up a ranged weapon if you lack ammo for it.

What kind of idiot comes here to shitpost?

She killed me in two hits. It was quite annoying to figure out her fighting style dying fast.

No, fuckwits are memeing that.

Do you get anything for being vampire lady? A second mark?

i honestly feel every single stat except maybe spirit and ninjitsu aren't needed

even if you dont use axes and what not, you need those to wear most of the better armor

The beta fucking sucks.

You fucking suck.

Semen demon is raping me ,help

who here /megaHoroku-dama/

Mark of the strong, I think.

can you do unarmed combat in this game?

you can do this

>onryoki throws a ball trough it's body and hits me when I'm behind it

I think the biggest reason why the second boss is so hard is because she's too fast for the games slow and clunky controls. Also when Willem gets hit by any of her attacks his weapon gets auto sheathed even if he should still be blocking. Her air scream attack has so much birth that even he he dodges it he might still take damage.

The boss is hard for all the wrong reasons. She has an extremely limited moveset and most of her attacks can be easily blocked. At least half of my deaths on that boss were from seeing an attack coming but the game didn't respond fast enough so he died anyway.

Make sure you're not wearing gear that isn't greyed out. Use hit and run tactics. Don't get greedy. A heavy attack then double dash back. Repeat until dead.

I love how the guy does fake attacks. Reminds me of Mr. Sandman in Punch-Out. Just like Mr. Sandman, just stab it in its big dumb face.

Just sank 5+ hours into this in one sitting, now up to last boss. What a great game

Trust in Shark?

Kind of. They removed durability and increased input delay to make it feel more like Dark Souls.

It sucks, hopefully they change it back so its more responsive.

Block. That's basically how to don't die, just block all her attacks. Even her kunai throws can be blocked. The only attack that can't be blocked are her screeches.

she gets stunlocked ez. and she barely has any health

It feels the same to me. Even easier because in the alpha it was even more poorly coded to the point where phantom damage happened a lot.

>I think the biggest reason why the second boss is so hard is because she's too fast for the games slow and clunky controls
If you're talking about normal difficulty, I disagree. But if you're talking about twilight, it's completely true. Adds make the whole fight retarded because of the clunky targeting controls.

>twitter.com/KoeiTecmoUS/status/768214535668899840
lol Its to late cause i already beat the boat and opened it anyway.

Don't know why alpha users made a big deal out of such a small issue.

Its easier to beat the first stage than it was in the alpha because stamina usage isnt as strict.

Yeah, but I don't have a ki-based damage build so stun locking her isn't really an option. She has almost no health, especially in comparison to the boat boss, but like I said, the game tends ot be unresponvise and slow so Willem doesn't respond fast enough in certain situations so he just ends up dying.

Is the ps store down? Will I be able to download the mark of a warrior later?

Dude, they nerfed the fuck out of it from the alpha and made it easier to manage , so quit your bitching

The game would be a lot better if there was no stamina system, for Willem and enemies included.

>spamming attacks again blocks
>hit and staggered
>Why is stamina management so shit.

Gee. I wonder.

The stamina system is garbage, just get used to it.

>nerfing the stamina system somehow makes it better

If it got nerfed it got worse, dumb ass.

I miss low stance's ki dodge so much

No, the game would be EASIER with no stamina system, not necessarily better.

Hey guys I want to get a PS4 for this and some other games

Should I get a slim? Should I wait for the slim and hope the regular version gets priced down and get that? Or wait for the neo announcement thing?

Sorry its not exactly on topic but i didnt want to make a new thread

Magoichi and his raven might appear in some capacity (Though I think IRL he'd died before Adams appeared in Japan)?

Also William uses a dragon-type guardian in the first chapter of the comic, so presumably he'll appear as well.

That's not the point, dipshit.
It would be a lot more interesting than this hit and run dogshit.
Then stop doing it, retard.

Do people have that much more Stamina than me?
If I block a full combo or even just the spin, I am completly drained, stagger, and then she goes for the grab which is unavoidable then.

If enemies had no stamina system everything would be a lot harder, that's a fact.

Japanese games with large budgets have no choice but to cater to western audiences, western audiences don't like playing as Asians

>hit and run dogshit

Ki Pulses.

Belong in the trash, they should axe them entirely.

Enemies wouldn't even be able to break your guard if there wasn't a stamina system and you could just parry their shit. How would that be harder?

ITT: starving sonyggers gobbling faeces and describing it like it's the best thing they've ever eaten

>Do people have that much more Stamina than me?

No idea. The boss is actually easier if Willem has no armor equipped. He can do more damage and recovers ki faster.

Seriously, just block

>charge attack
block it
>spin attack
block it
>kick attacks
block them
>umbrella attacks
block those as well
>air kunai throws
block them
>air charge attack
block

The only attacks that need to be dodges are her grab and her scream. She doesn't ever grab too often and it's pretty easy to dodge.
