60 of 145 · most liked firstIt's really funny that anyone expected Japanese reviews to be angry about the game. It was already a best-seller on preorders alone. Nioh had an even wilder protrayal of Yasuke and everyone thought it was rad as hell. He had a lightning bear stand. Gettign wacky with samurai & ninja is culture.
unlabelledView post →This was my favorite State of Play in a long time. Not every game appeals to me, but it had more than a few really fun surprise announcements. Final Fantasy Tactics, Marvel Fighting Game, Nioh 3, a new game from Suda51 and a sequel to Bloodstained? Well done PlayStation!
unlabelledView post →A new one from me. I reviewed Nioh 3 at Kotaku. It's a good game but talking about it is tricky. This review has some of my highest praise ever (these are the best feeling action games ever) and some of my harshest disapproval as well.. kotaku.com/nioh-3-the-k...
unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 being €80 for the base game or €120 for the special edition is really pricing it out of what I'm comfortable paying for a game, I think I'll be waiting a little on it.
unlabelledView post →This game got memed on something fierce by people not realizing that a joke was, actually intentionally a joke. But it's not only a great take on the Nioh formula, but a shockingly good Final Fantasy game in general. As with most Nioh-likes the DLC adds a huge amount. It evolved a lot after release
unlabelledView post →Gonna be busy fixing up the discord for a bit but my review for #TheFirstBerserker just dropped. Game is PEAK. Basically if Sekiro and Nioh 2 decided to have a baby together. It's a pure adrenaline filled delight from start to finish. youtu.be/QDjoOc8bVc4?...
unlabelledView post →HAPPY FRIDAY VERY HAPPY FRIDAY Continuing my demo saves for both. DQVII as my treadmill game; Nioh 3 as my home focus game. This treadmill life hack letting me reach for a 2nd game as a traditionally one game at time gamer has been 🔥
unlabelledView post →Okay firing up the Nioh 3 demo to make a character and like...apparently you're just textually trans if you play as a woman in this game? Like you're meant to be Tokugawa Ieyasu's grandson and the game starts you as that before you turn to a mirror and be like HRT time bby
unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 seems like the perfect kind of game to get you into Nioh 2
unlabelledView post →One thing that people may not know is that Yasuke already appeared in a game as a samurai & as Nobunaga’s retainer along with the entire Honnoji incident. It was in a stellar game called Nioh. Ironically this game also starred a historical foreign figure who rose to samurai class, William Adams.
unlabelledView post →Holy shit I’ve been sleeping on Nioh 2. I’ve never played these games before and I have to say this game is incredible! 😭💯
unlabelledView post →It's not even the first time Yasuke has been depicted in sengoku-era video games. It's not even the -second- time. I could understand folks missing Samurai Warriors 5 since not everyone's a Musou game lifer, but dude was in Nioh! Both Niohs!
unlabelledView post →You know how every Koei game is ultimately historical simulation, even Nioh? Well the Koei mj game, "Mahjong Taikai (tournament)" has you playing with historical figures. DC port of Saturn game has tiny hard-to-read tiles and massive, somewhat disturbing, animated faces. Nostradamus bankrupted me.
unlabelledView post →I deleted Nioh 3. I know when burnout is creeping in, and a punishing game is not what I need right now. Do plan to go back to it at some point as I enjoyed it plenty.
unlabelledView post →Gone are the staying up late to start the new game days. 👴🏼 But Nioh 3 tomorrow aaaaahhh!!! I'm so excited. 😭😭
unlabelledView post →I seriously cannot wait for Nioh 3. It is my most anticipated game of all-time. After struggling to no end with both Niohs to eventually loving their punishing difficulty, I never thought Team Ninja would come back to this series. Not long now.
unlabelledView post →There is a character in Nioh 2 (game about cutting up horrific demons) who will delicately appraise tea vessels you find as you play, sometimes casting them aside as rubbish after viewing them carefully on a purple cushion.
unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 is everything I love in a video game already. There's stealth big damage/kills take downs. The exploration has hidden stuffs. The git gud. (Obviously) All the loot is throws at me. I am John nioh! It's peak. 😭
unlabelledView post →Insane how good the Nioh 3 alpha demo is. It's everything I ever wanted as a sequel already. Nioh 2 gameplay, with added variety in the form of a ninja stance which add a 2nd loot set to manage + an amazing open world, with more custom linear mission in between It's like they made my dream game.
unlabelledView post →Okuni sketch. 💖 I want to play Nioh. Does it matter which game I start with story wise? #okuni #quicksketch #nioh #fanart #art
unlabelledView post →Dark Souls 2 had one of the best new game pluses ever, so good that the Nioh series copied it. It's even more striking a feature of Nioh than the superficial souls elements like bonfires, souls, and death markers. The whole idea is that NG+ isn't simply fucking with damage numbers, but adding shit.
unlabelledView post →Mm. It might adversely impact my experience if I hit level 60 in the Nioh 3 demo before the game comes out
unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 Review: Team Ninja is on top form with one of its best ‘masocore’ games yet. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ www.videogameschronicle.com/review/nioh-...
unlabelledView post →I'm super excited to announce that I've been given an early access code for Nioh 3! I'll be playing the game for as long as I can tomorrow, so please come check it out! Huge thanks to Koei Tecmo for the game key!
unlabelledView post →Since finishing the plat for The First Berserker: Khazan, I made a TLDR review for it! Plus I put some extra thoughts in the official DG post (linked below) with how I think the game ultimately holds up, especially with how it compares to its Nioh inspirations: www.deargamers.net/reviews/the-...
unlabelledView post →I do not have the words to properly articulate what this means but I appreciate how much Nioh 3 is just a video game ass video game
unlabelledView post →Let's check out Nioh 3 today! Huge thanks to Koei Tecmo for the early access game key! twitch.tv/auroralvisage youtube.com/auroralvisage
unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 has me back into souls like mode. I am just thrilled at how good this game is.
unlabelledView post →Game #9 of 2026 completed: Nioh 3 My first 3D Soulslike completion. Phew. I literally chuckled after the final blow, because I never thought I'd have the patience to do it. But Nioh 3 earned my time with its fantastic combat and incredibly rewarding open world.
unlabelledView post →9th game beaten of 2025: The First Berserker Khazan 😈 Nioh-lite may sound reductive, but it is 100% apt. While Khazan doesn’t meet or exceed that high bar, it is a solid, challenging game. They need to fix the crashes & trophy bugs, otherwise it’s a great entry in the genre
unlabelledView post →Playing my first ever Nioh game!! Nioh 3 just came out so I’m very interested in the combat. My only curiosity is… parrying? 👀
unlabelledView post →Coming up on the end of the first world in Nioh 3. This game is much prettier than I expected.
unlabelledView post →Instead of running out and buying Nioh 3, I decided to sit down and actually finish Nioh 2, starting from the beginning. And man this game just rips
unlabelledView post →Tried the Nioh 3 Demo. Yeah it's crack. Nioh 1 & 2 are phenomenal games. Games that if you haven't played, you should, as even the first game holds up with today's Souls-esque games & each subsequent sequel (from what I can tell with the 3rd's demo) progresses the game in extremely satisfying ways.
unlabelledView post →I beat a game for once!! The base game of Nioh has been completed :D There's.. 3 dlc's I think?
unlabelledView post →every now and then i think about how Stranger of Paradise has one of the best feeling combat systems in an Action RPG i've ever played and how the game itself is so close to being perfect if it were to get a sequel like Nioh to Nioh 2
unlabelledView post →Koei Tecmo's rock hard samurai action game, Nioh 3, has set a new series record as it passes impressive sales milestone www.eurogamer.net/nioh-3-milli...
unlabelledView post →'Nioh 3' reveals Bakumatsu period. The game also features other periods like Edo, Sengoku, and Heian period. www.gematsu.com/2025/11/nioh...
unlabelledView post →Anyway, NIOH is a game series I highly recommend. I also recommend you play Nioh 1 and then Nioh 2. Nioh 1 is one of the most polished soulslikes ever made. It’s great from beginning to end. It’s very much worth playing. And Nioh 2 improves *every* aspect of it.

unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 is the greatest game ever made. I can already tell
unlabelledView post →Nioh honestly makes me feel more tense and on edge than any Dark Souls game has
unlabelledView post →nioh2.wiki.fextralife.com/new+game+plus In Nioh, this is taken even further than in Dark Souls 2. There's whole skill trees and builds you can't do til you get *several* new games in, enemy placement and behaviour changes each cycle, etc.

unlabelledView post →Nioh 3 video game
unlabelledView post →Wasn't expecting such a Ubisoft CollectSlop game, but here we are. That's a big map. And apparently there's two more? I can see the foundation of what would become Nioh 3 and Wo Long 2 in the development of this though. As different as it is gameplay wise, all three share a lot of staff.
unlabelledView post →my problem is that early on in new game Nioh, you have no real build and none of the fun tools youd typically have throughout most of the game so its just a flat wall of trash damage numbers until you can open the game up
unlabelledView post →Also look, as an end user I will take more "here's a random game you might like that you haven't seen yet" on my landing page vs. "hey I know we've shown it to you sixty-two times and you've never even played the first one but are you POSITIVE you don't want to buy Nioh 2?"
