So I waited until just a few hours before this demo expired and truly I should have played it the entire time is was available because this game is so cool!!! I plan on picking it up on release and I told myself I'd actually finish it!
Essentially what we've got here is a game that gets inspiration from the Dark Souls series and throws a Feudal Japan spin on it. Which is quite literally something I've always wanted since playing Demon's Souls 8 years ago. It comes from Team Ninja who are known for the Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden series. They make excellent games and I don't expect anything less out of Nioh.
For those of you unfamiliar with Dark Souls it is an action RPG that is famous for being unforgiving in its difficulty. You will die. And die. And die. But once you've finished that level or boss the amount of satisfaction is that much more rewarding.
I recorded some gameplay clips and for whatever reason they are corrupted once they get to my computer so sadly I only have some screenshots and a trailer video.
Pick it up February 7th if you think you can handle it.
