I guess they wanted to get rid of their contract with Sony for Nioh and do something that would be multiplatform and actually have a chance to succeed…it doesn’t make sense anymore to limit your audience if you are making a character action/souls-like game, the genre is niche enough as they are and not being on every possible platform is a stupid decision.
Game sounds awesome btw and I can’t wait to see gameplay.
-no diablo loot
-character creation like in Nioh 2
-co-op
-Nemesis like system — your deaths will impact on strength of player and monsters
-more action compared Nioh 2
-morale system for player and enemies
-you can jump into enemies (like in Ninja Gaiden probably)
-combat is faster than Nioh 2, you will be attacking much more frequently
-stamina management is probably no more (Ki pulse, goodbye)
-flowing combat in which you seamlessly switch between offense and defense
-the game is set during the Yellow Turban Rebellion
-‘Wo Long’ doesn’t stand for Zhuge Liang
So many damned good games coming 1st half of 2023 to GP. This is the sleeper of the conference IMO. I think it could legitamately be one of the best games of 2023.
