Some Of The Depth Is Hidden Away Behind Convoluted Menus

Abstract: Nioh 's pedigree is rich in elements borrowed from several similar titles, including Bloodborne and Dark Souls, but it ultimately fails to differentiate itself when all is said and done. The Japanese-themed samurai story is intriguing upon initial glance...

Abstract: I have a confession: I'm not a fan of Dark Souls. I don't know what it was about the action RPG that never gripped me, but I never found enjoyment in playing a game that was created mainly just to torture it's audience with a ridiculous difficulty level a...
Abstract: I won't sugar coat it. I didn't make it far in Nioh. I put a deadline on myself to write this review, but after torturing through boss fights that took upwards of 20 tries and individual stages that soaked up entire afternoons, I have to bookend myself so...

Incredibly satisfying combat that rewards being bold and pressing the advantage, Perfectly timing a Ki Pulse to regain stamina and continue a combo feels amazing, Side missions and Diablostyled loot gives incentive to revisit old areas
Weak story beyond a tale of taking back what is rightfully William's, More difficult than a New Game Plus run through Dark Souls
Nioh is among the finest exclusives to grace the PS4, melding samurai action with the framework of the well-renowned Dark Souls series, although its devilish difficulty may send William to an early grave...
Nioh is a very impressive offering from Team Ninja, mostly thanks to the excellent combat and well-crafted main missions. From Software finally have some serious competition in the sub-genre they invented...

Unique perspective and depiction of Japan's warring states period, Effective and engrossing spin on Dark Soulsinspired combat and exploration, Labyrinthine locales encourage multihour exploration, Reading enemy behaviors to get an edge in battle adds a se

Combat is skillful and loads of fun, Open maps stuffed with encounters and secrets, Customization options are a welcome bonus, Adorable Kodama with cute little bowls for hats
Story is a bit bland, The first level is easily the worst part of the game
Nioh is easily the best action RPG I've played in some time. It may take some time to get into the swing of it's melee combat, and the first level doesn't make a good impression, but anyone looking for some engrossing hack-and-slash combat should pick thi...
Much like From Software's Souls games and Team Ninja's previous Ninja Gaiden efforts, Nioh was clearly designed with a very specific sort of gamer in mind, namely a very patient one who doesn't mind having to constantly learn from their mistakes. If you f...
