Support NeoGAF

Looks like Bill (shut up, I'm calling him that) is going to have some nice armor customization.

So down to play as Samurai Geralt. Game looks like a fast paced Dark Souls, and that's a very fucking good thing.

 

[hey_it's_that_dog]

The important thing to consider is that it is a new IP influenced by all of those games, but does not seem to be a cheap pastiche of either of them. That in itself is really damn cool, not something you see every year.

Totally agree. It's early to say, of course, but so far I think it looks like it will have its own feel and combat style not directly cloned from any of its influences.

I'm buying this mainly because it is the sort of game that I've been craving ever since I played Genji 2 back in 2007. But I also want to support the title on the off-chance it does well enough worldwide to make Capcom consider releasing another Onimusha or even HD remasters of the original four games.

 

[Skyo]

This looks promising. Digging the combat mechanics, need more info on the gameplay as a whole.

This game doesn't have giant enemy crabs (that I know of)

 

[RoyaleDuke]

Oh my God this looks so damn good, I neeeed it.

Samurai Souls.

 

[Squire]

Oh the irony!

Ahaha, I didn't even notice!

Ahahahahahaha

Give it time, game was just shown off. You don't go full giant enemy crab right at the start. You gotta build up to it.

 

[Philippo]

I wonder if the game, being an ARPG, will have moments where you don't fight and just explore/interact with NPCs, and if it'll have a well fleshed out story.

The orbs and setting give off a bit of Ninja Gaiden vibe but the gameplay seems more akin to Souls than NG.

Amazing, still unparalleled when it comes to action games. Ninja Gaiden was on a whole other level.

Hope Ni-Oh is a return to form.

 

[Angelus Errare]

KT needs to drop moar gameplay videos man. I'd love to see a boss battle.

Since we talking about historical accuracy where it's not needed: I'd totally play a game about Yasuke

80 pages on how unrealistic/unrelatable that'd be. XD

 

[yamaneko]

For me...
Is something between gengi and first devil may cry... + japanese dark areas from fatal frame 2

 

[Red Blaster]

guy on the 8-4 tgs podcast saw the live demo and said it looked flippin amazing in person

 

[ZhugeEX]

Oh wow. I just found the post I made when someone on the inside told me that Ni-Oh was coming back to PS4 to be announced at TGS. (Except he told me 2 years too early haha)

recently last year I spoke to someone who said the project had moved to PS4 and was still alive.

The post- http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=78135757&postcount=29

Of course I backtracked fairly quickly once I realised I couldn't prove it other than what someone told me.

 

[sublimit]

Do we know who is/are the composer(s)? Man i wish they got Taro Iwashiro and Hideyuki Fukasawa!I think i would have exploded from excitement if either of them worked on this game!

Taro Iwashiro
Hideyuki Fukasawa

 

[abstract alien]

Love the heavy animations and movement. I'll take the chance and jump in.

 

[SmokedMeat]

Damn, this looks good! Exactly the kinds of games I like to see in development!

 

[Koobion]

Incredibly Soulsian. All of the fans of the Souls games I know have this on their radar.

 

[sankt-Antonio]

Not a fan of the animation, looks somewhat stiff. Regardless, finally a game that seems to try the souls formula with a different take/flavor. Hype rising.

 

[MickeyKnox]

Holy shit I just realized this was the Koei game that was announced before the fucking PS3 launched

[Angelus Errare]

Every time this is bumped I expect to see new gameplay videos. Sigh

 

[ShinMaruku]

I remember when I seen a interview about TN picking this up. Nobody gave it a second look.
