It looks like loot based game, you can see items drop which have different colors. On the other hand, it required you always evade and block since enemies could kill you in 2 or 3 hits. Love what i saw so far, will keep eyes on it

 

[wild wild rice]

I'd say this has some serious potential. Could be a decent alternative for folks who are starting to get a bit burnt on the Souls series.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

I'm gonna call this guy Asian Geralt from now on.

Looking forward to this.

 

[Akiller]

Ammy summon!

Spoiler

*Checks Kamiya's twitter*

 

[ZhugeEX]

I'm gonna call this guy Asian Geralt from now on.

Looking forward to this.

His name is William.

 

[Pai Pai Master]

His name is William.

Billy Geralt

Seems badass enough

 

[jacobeid]

Dammmmmmn I am SO into this. Just shot near the top of my list to keep an eye on.

 

[Aostia]

I'm really interest in this game, I just hope it's not as hard as the Soul series, because I love that series but I can't "enter" the game properly (too much dedication required)

 

[ZoddGutts]

Yeah, you can see the influences of various of games. Just glad it's not a straight up Souls clone, getting worned out by that series at this point.

 

[Z3M0G]

That must be the Souls engine, right?

It looks through and through to be a souls game, with a little more flair.

Yeah, you can see the influences of various of games. Just glad it's not a straight up Souls clone, getting worned out by that series at this point.

That's very much what it looks like to me... enough so that I'd say if you like Souls go for it, but if you don't like Souls stay away... it looks far too similar.

Yeah me too I hope it's not ridiculously hard.

I'm all up for challenging gameplay but if this can hit that Onimusha or Ninja Gaiden sweet spot I'll be happy.

I've been stuck on Bloodborne's second boss for ages but it's due to time constraints, honest

 

[Alo0oy]

The best part is that Issen attack, so much Onimusha nostalgia from a simple sword attack.

 

[jett]

This looks rather good.

 

[ZhugeEX]

That must be the Souls engine, right?

I believe it's Koei's next generation engine.

 

[Alo0oy]

I'm gonna call this guy Asian Geralt from now on.

Looking forward to this.

I believe he's half Asian half white.

 

[Krakn3Dfx]

Damn, looks good, I'll be checking this out.

 

[Niks]

looks great. Will keep my eye on it.

 

[Zhao_Yun]

Looks really good. Evoking all my Onimusha memories.

 

[Sesha]

Animations look a bit stiff, as I thought from the reveal trailer. Not crazy about damage numbers popping up either.

 

[MidBoss]

I don't want to read about Onimusha unless it's Onimusha.

 

[slade]

Looks a lot like Onimusha to me minus the Issens. Last game of this type I played was Genji 2 all the way back at PS3 launch. It's long overdue. Shame that Capcom has no faith in the Onimusha IP although the last game in the series does bring everything to a close.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

Yep, this is looking very promising!

 

[ZoddGutts]

That must be the Souls engine, right?

That's very much what it looks like to me... enough so that I'd say if you like Souls go for it, but if you don't like Souls stay away... it looks far too similar.

Not really. It has stances, familiar power summons and orb absorption (Onimusha), not something in the Souls series. Different enough for me to check this game out.

 

[FalsettoVibe]

Looks good to me.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

The one thing I don't like is how movement seems to have somewhat proper weight to it but then the guy takes the sword out and suddenly he moves like he's Ryu from Ninja Gaiden. He's too fast and dashes around. I wish his attacks were slower/heavier.

Still looks good enough though.

 

[silva1991]

Looks SO GOOD! and no it doesn't look or play like Dark Souls come on.

 

[Loudninja]

I dont really I like that he is fast.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

I dont really I like that he is fast.

Well, why don't you marry Geralt-chan then?

 

[sixteen-bit]

This game looks promising.

Boring-ass lonkin' protag tho.

 

[Mandelbo]

This looks really fun, definitely gonna keep an eye on it. I wonder whether there's a character editor or if we can only play as the Geralt-alike.

 

[Zaventem]

That movement in combat is so sluggish it's kinda turning me off.

 

[rockman zx]

Looks amazing, I wonder if the whole game is during night time.

 

[Ghost Slayer]

That movement in combat is so sluggish it's kinda turning me off.

Look fine for me. At least not that sluggish in Witcher 3

 

[Loudninja]

Well, why don't you marry Geralt-chan then?

Heh I just like fast combat every now and then.

 

[Mr. Giggles]

Ooooo had that souls vibe going for it!

I'm brown and down for this!

 

[Usobuko]

It's way too dark for me.

 

[Aostia]

Yeah me too I hope it's not ridiculously hard.

I'm all up for challenging gameplay but if this can hit that Onimusha or Ninja Gaiden sweet spot I'll be happy.

I've been stuck on Bloodborne's second boss for ages but it's due to time constraints, honest

yes, I really liked Soul-series art direction, atmosphere and so on, but I don't have that time to dedicate to a single game anymore. in fact I still have to get Bloodborne (waiting for a sale).
This one excite me, but I hope to be "able" to fully enjoy it.

 

[FunkyPajamas]

Heh I just like fast combat every now and then.

That's fine. I just felt a bit of a disconnect, but thinking back of Onimusha games I don't think they were that slow in combat. I mean, Samanosuke is not Dante, but he has a few fast moves, so I guess this shouldn't be too bad.

I'm still looking forward to it. Game looks good enough.

 

[Acquiescence]

Samurai Souls would've been a good name, but I suppose it's too lawsuit beckoning.

 

[LifeBrandRobot]

I never liked Ninja Gaiden but this looks like something I can get into.

 

[Venfayth]

The lighting is closer to Dragon's Dogma

 

[cireza]

This looks amazing.

 

[Replicant]

Can we leave Geralt out of this please. :-(

Fuck NO. Blonde boy Is hot. Hotter than Geralt.

 

[eizarus]

As someone who's only played Demon's Souls (and found it confusing as hell. Seriously.), I'm hyped for this game now.

Edit: but I still want a new Onimusha

 

[qa_engineer]

Orb absorption is more Ninja Gaiden than anything else. Hope this game has some depth to it as far as not combat mechanics go. I love the Dark Souls and Bloodborne series but I personally feel like it could benefit from additional not combat mechanics.

also the movement animations need some work.

 

[Baldwin_the_First]

Daaaaamn! That just redeemed TGS for me, love it. Hope it makes his way into the west too. That spear gameplay looks cool as hell.

 

[AzureFlame]

Dark Souls with Ninja Gaiden gameplay.

 

[mejin]

Fuck NO. Blonde boy Is hot. Hotter than Geralt.

Geralt is old and ugly.

 

[IvorB]

Fuck NO. Blonde boy Is hot. Hotter than Geralt.

Okay... so talk about him rather than Geralt?

 

[bacardi]

Looking forward to this, big surprise actually!
