      Re: Nioh

      Made it through the first real boss yesterday and am 2 shrines into the next level. Really enjoying this so far. I'm going swords and spears and that seems to cover the necessary bases pretty well for me so far. I know that there are far more interesting builds, but I'll probably explore those on subsequent playthroughs.

        When I prayed at the first shrine it didn't open up the options like it did in the beta, is there something I have to do to see those options or is the first shrine where you pray at in the game but a "full shrine" or something?

          I believe the option at the shrine is under "Boons" when you pray.

            Yeah but what I meant was at the first shrine in the game that I prayed at the screen just turned white briefly when I prayed and that was it, it went back to the game.

            Is that one not a full shrine or something?

            How do I bring up the options like to put forth an offering, all that?

              Ahh, gotcha. I believe mine worked. You're talking the shrine right off the boat near the shore? I just had to revisit it after praying the first time I think.

                Beat the 2nd boss today and am getting ready to do the 2nd side mission on the second map. Great frigging game. I have been maining with the spear to great effect and today toward the end I tried the weapon with the chain and sickle. Man, in the low stance you can land a ton of consecutive hits, key pulse, and repeat. What it lacks in damage from the low stance it makes up for in the sheer number of strikes. I recommend giving it a shot.

                Hope you guys are enjoying this as much as I am. What a treat.

                  Completely agreed. I love the Souls games but I feel that, combat wise, this game is a step up. It remains to be seen if the world building and overall atmosphere can match Souls and Bloodborne, but I'm liking what I'm seeing.

                  I too am maining a spear, but I switch to a katana quite frequently for its low stance potential. The spear in mid stance absolutely punishes the AI.

                  I think I'm closing in on the 2nd boss so hopefully I'll take it down today.

                    Absolutely loving this game! The combat and smooth-as-silk frame rate are awesome compared to souls. I'm running a spear and katana and pumping stats into heart and body with some into spirit as well for my guardian (using the shark). What stats are everyone else focusing on?

                      Is this like Ninja Gaiden difficult?

                        I didn't follow this game's development but from what I have seen, I think I really want it. The fact that I'm off next week might push me over the top

                              That's what I was mainly pumping stats into, but I just dumped my last 3 or 4 level ups into magic. Some of the talismans are REALLY good so far. The oasis one is a huge AoE health buff, and the weakness talisman makes the enemy take a fair amount of extra damage per hit.

                              Some of the higher level talismans look ridiculous. I'm really interested in the sloth talisman that slows enemies attacks down. I imagine that being helpful on boss fights.

                              I'm up through the 2nd boss now and just completed one of the new side missions. The 2nd boss, without giving spoilers, was quite a challenge. I died about 5 times before I really got the timing down on her attacks. The debuff she can hit you with is ridiculous. Felt REALLY good taking her down.
