Covid also helped Ghost of Tsushima. I finished the game pretty quickly and it was pretty easy to get lost in the world. I didn't even use fast traveling much as it was so much fun to just wander around Tsushima.
Bro the graphics were out of this world
@@darylbeck7273 yeah the soundtracks as well! Right from the title sequence I was hooked!
@@Ishayat on ps5 with oled tv it's even better
@@Ishayatghost of Tsushima would have done great regardless. Covid has nothing to do with it.
@@mysterious___1 i did say covid 'also' helped
"Their games don't typically do anything best of the best..." This man is talking about the studio that made Ninja Gaiden and Nioh 2!?!?!?! WTF!?!?! Who is doing combat better??? PLEASE TELL ME!!!
Nioh 2 is probably the most complete and complex combat system in a single player action game. Nothing I've played comes close except other Team Ninja works.
@@upon-fe2720 100% I agree totally and completely, it literally feels like a fighting game level of depth in an action game!!! No comparison!
Really? Complexity is what wins you over? Combat is supposed to be fun no one cares about how complex it is. Idc if its complex if its as fuild as falling down stairs in leg calibers. Stick to you old ass boomer game. Fk off to the past old man @@upon-fe2720
Damn this channel loves being negative.
To be clear.. im not interested in this game. But i like to be actually objective.
Luke always promote not to be hype but sceptic. But he doesnt even do that. Always mocking and sh*t on everything and disguise it as. No im sceptic. Its crazy.
This game isnt perfect.
Id even say some stuff is dated. But still im not gonna go out of my way to dump on it
And try to brainwash everybody else to think the same thing
Nioh 2 had insane combat, so right away Luke is wrong, shocker. What they don't do well is story and level design. Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 combat was amazing.
Yeah but sekiro and souls still beats nioh
@@TheSparkynutsnot in combat, but in other things yes.
@@TheSparkynutsNi-Oh with one weapon has 10x better combat than souls and 4x better combat than Sekiro. Tf? same animations on almost every weapon and copy pasting the same animations since 2009
@@TheSparkynutsNioh 2s combat system makes every From Soft game look like a school projects.
@@silviuchertes9464so are you saying it's better combat than ninja gaiden cuz of its depth? If you think depth combats makes better then armored core 4th must be better than any team ninja games they put, the turning boost alone takes 1 week to get used to it let alone every mechanics of that game
4:33 is the highlight of this video 😂
😂
I laughed out loud at this moment
The Industry needs more 8 outta 10 games!!! Omg this line of thinking is what is killing this hobby and industry.
Wait wym????
exactly. Everyone's out here settling for mediocrity from an art medium*; genius.
Because the only thing that's ever come out that's AAA is awful@@matthewcarroll2533
"8/10, or a little more or a little less than 8"
Buddy, you just gave your estimate half the scorecard
Lol
He says 8 out of 10 for literally every game that isnt a masterpiece or isnt total trash. Its hilarious
@davidtreece3922 lmaooo it's weird because like, 8/10 isn't a bad goal at all. It is above average and means that there will be people considering it to be a masterpiece.
What a weird thing to spin negatively
@@TheLongestTake it's literally drives me nuts. Luke thinks a game isn't good if it's not red dead redemption
@@davidtreece3922 8/10 its good but not great, no one should aspire to make a 8/10 game, you should always trive for the best, why would you play a 8/10 game when you could be playing a 90+ game?
The most annoying part of this games coverage has been all the team ninja shills attacking anyone who even barely criticizes how the game has looked so far. It’s not my fault this game is releasing the same day as Dragons Dogma and it’s also not my fault that the game looks worse than every ps4 launch title and some ps3 games like Last of us 1.
Okay, but what about the gameplay? Hasn't this channel been talking about reducing budgets? That means the graphics will take a hit. Ghost of Tsushima was a $200mil game! Team Ninja don't have that kinda pull lol.
Graphics aside, it looks better than Ghost in every way. Better combat, better side characters missions (as we can play as our party members), better level design, better bosses, better narrative design with actual choices, and far better customization.
because the graphics literally dont matter, they are perfectly fine. get your head out of your ass.
@@blackmanwithcomputerthis!
GoT got repetitive because the combat system was not very deep. Cool, great graphics, yes. But how much do I care 30 hours in? Not very much
@@blackmanwithcomputer Yep, that's what people don't see. If Sony gave team ninja 200 or 300 million( Spider-Man 2) they'll mostly likely destroy any other game, because gameplay wise they're miles above anyone else. Ninja Gaiden 1 plays and feel better than many games 20 years older.
@@blackmanwithcomputer bro ghost of tsushima cost 60$ million. Where did you get the 200$ million idea?? When it was revealed everyone was surprised because of how complex and visually stunning it and cheap it was.
Oh wow, I will definitely buy it........... On sale
Definitely looks like a sale kinda game to me
Luke …you and your contemporaries’ silence on Sweet Baby and other DEI consulting companies speaks volumes.
“Silence in the face of injustice is complicity with the oppressor”
“At the end…we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends”
This game looks like a mix of Assassin's Creed with Nioh and that's something I am going to love... We'll see how the game pans out though.
Yeah, I'm definitely cautiously optimistic but I'll still wait for reviews and live streams.
I think they provided gameplay in the sense that they only gave a very small part at the start of the game for gameplay preview, locking you out of story missions needed to progress.
Personally I think it looks fine and I liked all TeamNinja games I played.
“Niche” seems like the perfect description.
It's a big budget AAA game made by a large developer, theres nothing niche about this game
@@mathewhosier9739 since when was Team ninja AAA ? last i recall Nioh 2 and Wo Long wasn't AAA
@@mathewhosier9739 It's barely AA.
It's a game for folks who mostly have fairly low standards.
ie, not me at all.
Lol no, Ninja Gaiden and Nioh are actually niche.
Open world and dated graphics don't mix...was fine for Nioh and wo long because it was simple levels with a focus on combat. Now they want to branch out to the mainstream well good luck with launch PS4 graphics.
I can't think of a successful open world game that didn't have amazing visuals for its time
When Luke showed the red flag i laughed so hard I choked I almost died 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes it always reminds me of cyberpunk 😂😂
PlayStation always provides the gameplay, doesn't let you capture anything for previews.
Saying the Nioh games is an 8/10 is blasphemy, honestly. I am underwhelmed by Rise of the Ronin previews, but the Nioh games are S tier. Literally the best combat of any game ever. I'm pissed Team Ninja doesn't have a 5 year 200 mil budget like other big AAA studios. It is depressing as fuck. I was really hoping ROTR was that
Nioh is definitely S Tier. I really liked Wo Long as well. Did you enjoy Wo Long?
okay chill, an 8/10 is what the game is. maybe even 7. the combat is sick but its pacing is terrible, the level design is lacking quite alot, and it shoots up in difficulty for no reason at some times. enenra alone shouldve been multiple missions in but they put him at the very beginning
fantastic game that is quite rough around the edges
Nioh games are solid. They have good combat. That's literally the entire appeal. There is almost nothing else going for them. 8 out of 10 is a very fair score. And it's still a very good score, so let's not act like it somehow isn't. I would also say that claiming Nioh has the best combat of any game ever is a big exaggeration imo. The combat is cool and flashy and I enjoy it, but it doesn't feel that great to me. Your hits lack impact. It doesn't feel very satisfying.
@MarkHogan994 Fromsoft games literally have no impact either as far as controller feedback. It was interesting as I been play FF7Rebirth and I'm like this game feels good in combat based on controller feedback, but awful during exploration lol
@@IAm.Messmer.Brother.Of.MaleniaEnenra is not even hard, the first playthrough of Ni-Oh 2 is easy. The only thing that's straight up bullshit is the building demon or whatever it's called.
I’m a From Software shill, but I have to give to Nioh 2 for some of the greatest combat ever. Only combat I prefer over it is probably Monster Hunter World.
Try armored core 6
@@hare75 I’ve played every single From game and have platinum on them. From’s game forte is unmatched level design and simple/intuitive combat. It simply lacks the complexity and deepness of more pure action game like DMC, Nioh, or Monster Hunter. Just look at the combo route any of the MH weapons can go into, and From’s game just isn’t design to contain combo branches like that. Even AC6, at the end of the day each weapons have one action, 2 at most, which allows for 4-6 different actions your build can do. Looking at Gunlance you can: poke, poke+shell, shell+shell, swing up, swing up+shell, slam down+full burst, slam down into swing, swing into quick reload into slam, quick reload into poke, wyvern shell, guard, guard poke, guard poke into shell, step, wyvern stake, wyvern stake into wyvern shell, and more if you include special move in Rise or Iceborne.
@@haruhidasoarmored core 6 was alreay depth combat but tbh i only hate the combo in AC6 it doesn't fit in armored core series, the only fromsoft that has super depth control, high skill ceiling combat and satisfying was armored core for answer (my best action game of all time)
I would put Monster Hunter just below but only slightly, although MH has the greatest weapon selection of any game. Nioh isnt just masterful like MH but there's a lot more of it, It's like MH is a gourmet meal and Nioh 2 is 2 gourmet meals with starters and 2 desserts...
I don't know about engaging story Team Ninja is a mix bag when it comes to their stories in game but always had great combat.
Team Ninja: great gameplay, mid level design at best, terrible stories
@Budd631 Their stories are presented with charm and character imo. I really enjoyed them. Now From soft stories suck because there is no actual story presented lol
Armored core 6 clears all team ninja storytelling no diff @@DV-ou1yu
i do not see any connection at all between dogma 2 and any souls like game. Not even elden ring. it is completely 100% different. If you have played Dogma 1, it plays like an old school rpg so do not forget that your lamp needs oil! From a feels standpoint, it reminds me of a Dragon Age kinda game but with action combat focus.
Regarding Rise of the Ronin, it is a mix of Assassins Creed with Ghost of Tsushima and a dash of Sekiro. It is based on real people in a real place in a real time of history which is why it has that ac vibe. The reason to buy this game, is unlike Sekiro and GoT, this game boasts so many weapons, each of them packed with combos and power increase depth. If you ever wanted a Nioh style of game, without the supernatural stuff, in an open world setting, this game is it. There will likely never be a game like this again.
The animation ls in the game doesn't feel like it's meant for this world. The horse almost glides across the world as it runs
Yea it has absolutely no weight to it at all.
How does Ishin Like a Dragon have better graphics than this? Ishin is just an upgraded Ps4 game.
Now that Luke mentions how the glider starts fast then it suddenly slows down I can't unsee it
Same lol
That’s how a glider works though??
@@chrisfoster3287 the slow down looks very sudden and unnatural here
Luke is quickly becoming one of my favorite little person content creators/video game journalists!
little person? lol
That’s one way to say smaller UA-camr 😅
Skill Up wasn’t very sold on the introductory preview either, so I’m very mixed. Nioh I enjoyed the most at the beginning, Stranger of Paradise I enjoyed the most at the end, Wo Long I didn’t enjoy at all. Very hesitant about it, reviews will be the deciding factor.
Where was skill ups preview or was it hit on during a podcast?
@@kennycav1479 It was mentioned in the recent episode of This week in videogames! The full preview is yet to be uploaded
@@Evanz111 thank you
Are we not gonna talk about how the first boss is Matthew Perry?
And?
Okay?? And?
I keep seeing responses to this with "And?" "Okay, and???" 😂😂😂 does that make people pissed off or something?
@@PostTheRiffs it clearly triggered you
@@mysterious___1 look I get you're still grieving Matthew Perry, so I should've been more sensitive. 🙄
Day 1 for me along with DD2.
Ironic because Team Ninja used to make some of the best visuals in the industry. Still, the only game i enjoyed by this team was Ninja Gaiden on the OG Xbox. Still the greatest pure action game ever made! Now THAT game was their magnum opus.
Yea Ninja Gaiden black and 2 were top notch when it came to action and combat. Brutal ass games but hella fun
@@ThePowerOfOneThePowerOfTwo Didn't really dig the second one. Felt it was just too much at times. That and the super linear level design was a definite step back from the incredible metroidvania design of Black.
@@GracelessTarnishedI found black a bit too hard way harder than dark souls sekiro for me ninja gaiden black the hardest action game and the goat
That doesn't mean anything, they're still far behind the other game industry
@@GracelessTarnished I wasn't wild about the story but I loved the evolution of the combat. I definitely feel you on the level/ world design though
"Their games don't typically do anything like best of the best." Bold claim that comes off as you being ignorant. Have you delved deep into their best games? Many regard the Nioh series as being the deepest and best in the action-rpg category. They are the best blend of Diablo-style build progression and end game content combined with fast and responsive skill-based combat. Oh, and let's not forget about Ninja Gaiden Black, which is often regarded as one of the best action games OF ALL TIME (and got a 94 on metacritic). And Ninja Gaiden 2 pushed the envelope on fast paced, gory combat. Few games can even compare to it.
Go watch some 'combo mad' videos of Nioh 2 and Ninja Gaiden 2 and observe how Team Ninja is a developer with a fighting game pedigree that make single player game combat systems that have depth and nuance comparable to fighting games. A lot of other single player developers COULDN'T EVEN DREAM of creating combat systems as deep and responsive as they do.
The combat in Nioh is tops. The level design is meh and the stories are just terrible. I beat them both and platinumed nioh 2 and Wo Long. The combat hard carries
Fightincowboy loves TeamNinja games and he said this game is a miss. He said specifically the combat was a step back from nioh and wolong and that the world was not very immersive. Ill take his word for it and wait for more user feedback
I will decide for myself,I like cowboy but he ain't the end all be all when it comes to games like this.
He's basically the only "Nioh fan" who said it's a miss, there's 10 other previewers who think it's good and they are also "nioh/souls-like fans". FightinCowboy is a joke, he also hated on Nioh 2 at first and then changed his opinion which he has already done with his Ronin preview if you check the top comment.
@@mr.b1613 good to kno thanks!
Rurikhan also said it wasn’t good. Areekzgaming also. A lot of independent UA-camrs which I trust morez
You realize this statement is based solely on a couple of hours at the start of the game right? We're talking about an ARPG here, there's alot you'll still need to unlock deeper as you play the game.
Nioh 2 is the BEST combat ive ever seen in the genre. What the hell are you talking about?
The souls community in general loves Dragons Dogma a lot than any other series so most will probably go for it than an actual souls like ROTR 😄
Uh team ninja has the best arpg combat. So your wrong from the outside
Looks like Rise of the Ronin will have me going back to Nioh 2 like WoLong did.
Between Helldivers 2 and Dragons Dogma 2 it'll be a long while before i have time to try this game.
Can I still play dragon dogma 2 if I never played the first one? Or will I be confused.
@@livetohelpothers8401 no idea, I didn't play the first one either, but it looks like a good enough game that it won't matter. Also, the first game was released 14 years ago. I don't think any decent developer is going to depend on their fans waiting 14 years for next game for it to be a success other than maybe rockstar, but their games aren't lore dependent. If by chance they do, UA-cam exists to catch us all up.
@@livetohelpothers8401 yes. It is not a direct sequel. devs have mentioned it sort of a soft reboot. It’s what they have wanted the first one to be.
@@betweenthehammerandanvil amazing it looks so good. I’m thinking I’m gonna be a mage class 😁
I agree with you. I was thinking of buying both but I’m starting to lean on just buying dragons dogma 2 then buying this when the price drops
Whoever said "You know Capcom has been on a roll lately, bet their next game's gonna be a flop so let's release our game the same day as them" needs to get A LOT of sense knocked into them.
Also, THIS is a ps5 exclusive when GhostOfTsushima, a graphically waaaaayyyy superior (especially animation-wise) game, was a ps4 title, dafuq is TeamNinja on right now?
1) The game's graphical fidelity is absolutely poor
2) However we always talk about how graphics arent the most important thing. The issue is that the graphics and art style are lacking. Elden Ring has bad graphics but great art direction
3) I think both of those things would be a lot easier to overlook if we knew that the gameplay and open world shenanigans were good. Most reviews seem to suggest the gameplay is a step back from their previous titles and the world is all stuff we've seen before.
4) Im not sold that the game is bad anymore than its good. The best we can do is not get our panties in a bunch and relax. If you end up liking it, great! If not, oh well!
Graphics aren’t important what’s important is style I can look at elden ring and say that game is beautiful thanks to the execution of the art style. When I look at rise of ronin it looks on par with assassins creed black flag on ps4 which looks pretty rough in general ronin looks really rough specially for 70 dollar price point
@@inuclearpickle8628 Basically what you said. If RotR had good art style I could forgive the graphics but its just plain. They cant do anything interesting because its all grounded in reality
@@austin0_bandit05another thing I wanna bring up is contrast In the game looks kinda washed out similar to how the contrast made suicide squad look bland
@@inuclearpickle8628 This is true. And the color pallette just seems like 50 shades of brown, grey and green
@@austin0_bandit05 yeah it’s really flat. I turned on GoT just to remind myself, that game is stunning. But what adds to it is the dynamic lighting shifting through the day from cool blues to warm yellows, the weather and particle (leaves) effects and the way everything moves adding so much life to the environments and how the guiding wind ties into it.
With Rise it seems like there is a sepia effect going on almost like they’ve been influenced by old photography thinking that grounds it in its history. But it all just looks a little static and dead.
Dear Mr. Stephens, please consider to tweak your volume levels :D your mic is a little on the low side, so we turn the volume up. Then the IGN vid is even a few drawers below that, so we turn the volume even higher. Needless to say, the bad balance between vid and mic is a bit cumbersome at that point, but alright. And then your Outro kicks in, holy moly. I jumped back in my chair, whole family awake - figuratively speaking ;) thanks for the content tho, i love it
Oh right. It's PS5 launch only.
Was gonna say it'll be a buggy launch like Wo Long, but I didn't keep up with the console side.
I would pick it up on a sale if I could convince 2 friends to join me.
Their games have been pretty welcoming for 3 player co-op sessions.
I feel like the horse run animation looks a lot like Dynasty Warriors still.
I think wo long on console ran fine. I'm also on PC so I can't say. But I remember the complaints being aimed at the PC port
Kinda reminds me of RDR1 horse animations where it just seems like the horse is a little too fast.
This game is a hard pass for me. It is unfathomable to me that someone who isn’t a content creator is going to pay full price for this game. It seems very dated.
Cancelled my pre order thanks,I can't justify $124.95 Aud for this😢😮
How much that in real money?
And team ninja fans are still saying this game looks better than Ghost of Tsushima lol.
I love Ghost of Tsushima but in many ways this game does have more going for it than most open world action samurai games
@mr.b1613 Not Ghost it doesn't
@@RyanG0899 Ghost has visuals and probably story, but Ronin probably has better combat, loot, swap playable characters, bond system, traversal with the glider, online co-op, and an interactive crime/heat police system
Rise of the Ronin: Repetitive side quests like kiting and finding cats, Ubisoft UI, and the graphical prowess of Nioh 1. Stephen is not wrong.
@LukeStephens Assassin's Creed is not unique anymore. Infact there is better narrative and stealth mechanisms in the Rise of Ronin and the Ghost of Tsushima compared to Assassin's Creed Valhalla. Yes its a beautiful game but I think players start realising that the gameplay and narrative matter more than a beautiful and souless game. I predict Ubisoft has to try hard with Assassin's Creed Red or they are doomed. Mark my words the Rise of Ronin will sell well and particularly to the Assassin's Creed old school fans 😉
After seeing Ralph's preview/impressions video, my reservations for Rise of the Ronin have increased and I think more people should temper their expectations than simply head into this game as a mix-and-match of Nioh with Ghost of Tsushima. In their attempt to go "mainstream" with Rise of the Ronin (given Sony is the game's publisher), a lot of what made Nioh attractive as a niche has been excised in favour of catering to an audience who can't handle the Team Ninja game difficulty they're known for with their action games.
That being said, I'll more than likely play Rise of the Ronin down the line, but with VII Rebirth and Helldivers 2 still taking up my time, I'm in no rush to play this when it's released. In fact, let's not be surprised if it winds up as a free game on PS+ before the year ends when Sony's releasing this on the same day as Dragon's Dogma II. I can't see how Rise of the Ronin has a leg up when Dragon's Dogma is an established IP and far more known and anticipated.
I think most Koei games make the mistake of going open world in hopes of getting new audiences. However, it took Souls 4 tries before they perfected the formula and then expanded on it. While it only took CD Project two tries with The Witcher, it took them years to perfect each game.
Nioh's combat and gear mechanics were done greatly in Nioh 2. However, the world and boss designs needed a lot more work. They needed another two games/sequels under their belt before they could tackle an open-world ARPG.
Its a Reskinned Wo Long/Nioh. am I the only one that saw the enemy name Matthew Perry?
Rule #1 , if many starts to criticize a game . then , we will witness a generational game
There's 3 difficulty options in this game, easy normal and hard you could actually do some research before you slate a game and saying its going to be brutal where as team ninja have said many times in interviews that they've gone for difficulty options so the game appeals to more gamers
I am being extremely biased since I finished Ghost of Tsushima just a few months ago. I haven't played the Iki island expansion yet but it's one gorgeous game with really great combat mechanics. Not groundbreaking at all but still immersive. So seeing Ronin in preview form was a bit of a disappointment to me.
The game looks unpolished in a way. There’s no details in the backgrounds. Like with the glider mini game when looking down at the ground it looks dull, empty, and dead.
I just hope the story is long. I don't wanna spend $70+ for 12 to 15hrs of gameplay. I want a game as big as ghost of tsushima I had like 70hrs in ghost of tsushima story. I put like 400hrs in legends mode
Ghost though is more like a 40 hrs game.
@@DV-ou1yu it depends on person and how much time u spend exploring
My current biggest gripe with this game is that they most likely introduced a similar rock, paper, scissor stance system in their combat like ghost of tsushima.
I absolutely hated that idea. Why not let me play the stance I want to play and force me to use a stance I don't like?!
This idea was also (in my opinion) by far the worst decision sucker punch made with their game.
I do agree with the"niche" description.
Personally, I see Ronin as a What If Way of the Samurai series were made by Team Ninja so Im looking forward to Ronin!
A lot of the stuff I've seen, both from gameplay and from previews, have basically told me this is looking to be more in line with something like Acquire's Way of the Samurai games, complete with the jank those typically entail as well. I think people going in expecting something like Nioh 2, Ghost of Tsushima or even Wo Long in terms of overall polish might be a little disappointed.
I think a good 7/8 would be exactly what this game ends up, just like how WotS often got around 6/7s back in the day.
Did anyone notice the running animation of the horse??its looking oddly weird
Janky AF
The IGN guy sounded bored.
Plus:
„How much I was liking this“ - wrong
„How much I liked this“ - right
I don’t know why Americans make English so clunky 🤷♂️
looks like Way of the Samurai
Luke “omnipresent” Stephen’s
To be honest, I'm looking forward to a "team Ninja " game that is more accessible. I have a disability so this will help. That being said, im not bind to the rough edges.
Looking forward to the branching story as well.
The only question that matters is whether the game supports super ultrawide monitors, including 49-inch and 57-inch models.
Asking 70 euro for a game that has AWFUL graphics is an insult.
Why would they name an enemy Matthew Perry? Maybe I'm old but I instantly think of Friends. Chanandler Bong anyone??
Ghost is honestly a boring game with basic and boring combat predictable story with yes with pretty environments but boring its just a fact i played story and didnt care to finish why cause im a gamer and its always gameplay over graphics and sorry got graphics were not enough for me its just nice to look at like a movie but to me combat stealth and story is ehh they just made its nice too look at but once i played after 20 to 30 hours its just boring and lazy slapped with pretty graphics
Dude Nioh 2 is an absolute masterpiece wtf are you talking about?! Have you been in the Underworld in NG+++++??? No? Then you havent finish the game! Theres no better combat and talent system in a 3P action game out there! Not even close!!
Nah
Is it just me, or do the graphics look like 2014? Yeah I know graphics aren’t evening but it is a $70 game on a ps5 lol
Looks like a game I will really enjoy, as I did with both Nih games,.
I actually think this''ll be a 9/10,as were the Nioh games for me.
But the graphics look ropey as usual. It does make you wonder why they persist with their in-house gfx engine.
It'll be nothing like Nioh. It's not a souls like game. Idk where twitter cretins came up with this lie from.
@@Tedi652 I think you will be disappointed then. The UI and inventory menus look almost Identical to Nioh. I think this game will be Nioh except open world. Now do I think the combat will be as difficult as Nioh? No probably not. But the combat is identical minus probably a couple things to try and shake up their formula. But this is just my opinion based on everything we have seen so far. I could be completely wrong but we shall see upon release.
@Tedi652 lol i think you're being quite silly, Team Ninja has been primarily known for making soulslike games in recent years, this is by all accounts a Soulslike
You clearly don't pay enough attention.
Fun fact Nioh isn't a souls like, it never was and actively punished you for playing it as if it were.
It's Ninja Gaiden meets Diablo with SOME souls elements sprinkled in, Nioh's main gameplay loop however is completely different, Nioh's combat is fundamentally different. Nioh is as much of a souls like as Sekiro is.
@@LumiliciousNioh is more “souls like” than most games in the genre, but only for the first play through. After you level your character up it becomes an action game. I just think most people never bothered making it that far into the game and never really saw how the game actually played.
Looks really fun 😊
Completely missed the part in the preview video where he mentions the wanted system! Attack civilians will result in Ronin and other enemies coming after you.
Ninja Gaiden and Nioh both have the greatest combat systems in their respective genre
the horse riding looks weird and the most immportant factor is that Ronin is a PS5 Exclusive title and its releasing the same day as Dogma 2 and this game is a Multiplatform game and both are 70$ so what game do u think gamers will pick?
Didn’t all the DD2 videos have provided gameplay as well?
I mean there's tons of raw gameplay out there,not for this game tho.
@@osirisavra1301Don’t agree, there is a lot of gameplay out there of this game as well, at least enough to have a clear image of what it will be like to play. And that’s what the gameplay videos before release needs to be, to give a clear image of what we can expect and other than that nothing more have to be shown. Take FF7 Rebirth for example, I absolutely loved the game but Square showed way too much of that one before release
Idk Luke, nioh 2 was a 10/10, 9/10 at worst. But I agree rise looks a little rough around the edges
“They’re pretty hardcore.” Dude why dont you just call it Ghost of Tsushima 2 while you’re at it. Thats what teamninja is know for. Why shy away from their dna? Its obvious the game is not designed on the focus of graphics or stunning visuals. We’re going to play it for the gameplay aspects, not sight seeing.
Nobody played Ghost of Tsushima for "sightseeing" either. The game did everything well and did it on a low budget and less than 8 years of development.
It’s a figure of speech with regards to Rise of the Ronin, my guy, not with regards to GOT. Thats clearly my last setence.
Excited for this one! Love the setting and looks quite like what Ghost of Tsushima could have been if it was a bit more gameplay focused, and since I liked the concept of that game but found it a bit on the slow side I think Rise of the Ronin will give me the experience I was looking for with GoT
This studio just churns out games for quantity over quality, but that said they do make entertaining games. They aren''t your typical $70 AAA game, but solid AA games.
"🚩" 😆😆😆
Good point!
People study games too much like its a damn university degree nowadays and rely on other peoples opinions on them, just play it without overthinking and who knows you all might start enjoying gaming again 😂 😂
This combat actually looks pretty fun. Idk about everything else though.
Every TN game
Yeah it's teamninja being teamninja alright
i changed my mind and get DD2 instead
exactly what im doing
Was on the Fence the more I saw of ronin the less I liked and the more of dragon’s dogma 2 the more gameplay I saw i was like yep day one pick up
I got both
Recent DD2 video they levitated as a mage to a monsters face and switched to daggers and clutched to its face to stab it. Yeah I’m getting DD2.
@@timholloway8821 X2 nothing would ever disappoint me as much as Saints Row reboot did. That practically killed my expectations for any game lol. So, even if it turns out it was mid or terrible I really won't feel as bad.
The game looks like its trying to be everything
Ok, Ok. You sold me. The red flag waving earned a subscription button press.
They're not chasing Sekiro and the gameplay won't be souls like. They long confirmed the game will have a few difficulty levels and the combat clearly is more arcade style than the gritty souls combat.
Dragon's Dogma 2 will also not be souls like at all. It will appeal to elden ring fans in so far as it appeals to any open world games' fans through explorations and dynamic encounters.
Always refreshing to have your insight Luke, now for mine. It hurts me that i’m not willing to pay $90cad fora game that looks like this, hud feels outdated and combat is clunky, when i saw lightning on the tip of that spear i took it out of the wishlist items. I do believe that the standard Ghost of Tsushima set ruined samurai games for me. Wake me up when the sequel gets announced.
bro really needed to make 9 preview videos and repeat himself in every video
tbh alot of from soft and souls like games dont become mainstream because alot of people dont like those type of games the only one that was mainstream in my eyes were sekiro due to the retry/revive system and elden ring due to how easy it was i think alot of people dont like the unforgiving and hard parts of those games
Provided gameplay :redflag:
I have to disagree on that. While the gameplay video was provided, the people who got to play the game actually have the game early.
As someone who got spoiled by reviewers (who used gameplay from near end gameplay) and by UA-camrs using spoilery thumbnail, this is super welcome.
A revamped wo long, probably just as good.
God, I hate that lighting. It's so unshaded, there's no contrast in any scene, nothing pops. They seem to use FSR which is just terrible at reconstructing lower resolutions. Just look at the foliage. Combat looks generic. But maybe we'll be surprised in the end.
I really hate those videos..let's focus 5 minutes on gameplay and rest of video is about graphics...damn. Graphic snobs showing their heads a lot with Ronin
There's a boss called Matthew Perry. At 9:22.
It's got Team Ninja written all over it for what it's worth. I could've told you it's Team Ninja just by watching the clip 😅
Not a Graphical Stunner but I love this type of games and I'll get it once it's running smoothly.
Bro looks as if he was already writing the game off before, and just watched the video and "discussed" his thoughts just for some content.
Luke you been drinking 😂 look mad on that thumbnail
@ 1:15 Just off this statement I can tell you werent around for the Ninja Gaiden games.
I’m not a fan of the deceptive thumbnail you used. Look at your sharp haircut in the thumbnail and then look at your hair in the video. How dare you bait me with a fresh cut! Red flag!!! 🚩
Have you heard of ninja gaiden luke ? Over a 90 on metacrtic and definitely revolutionary (in the genre) and can be considered a “magnum opus” now yes it’s been decades but nonetheless it renders alot of your earlier comments on team ninjas pedigree inaccurate
was really hoping this would get a PC release, I could see modders having fun with this as well if it is possible
Don't know why they made games only for ps
They can earn .ore if they release on pc too
The irony of your very first statement is that Nioh 2 is literally known for being one of, if not the best combat system in a action rpg. It has insane amounts of depth with players kill involved at every level.
Honestly, it wouldn't be a stretch to say that Nioh 2 is a masterpiece because it manages to put together fans of multiple games. The combat can be simple enough to please Souls fans... but it also can be in depth enough to please Devil May Cry fans... and it also has a very well put together loot system with billions of passives and numbers, and builds that completely break the game but takes time to farm and upgrade, that appeal to Diablo/PoE fans.
Which leads me to the subsequent games. Stranger of Paradise was fun and had depth but it definitely had less depth than Nioh 2. Still a great game. But Wo Long gutted most of the depth of the combat system and Ronin seems to be going the same route.
And before someone says "Wo Long and Ronin aren't Nioh 3 and 4". I'll say this: as long as they keep using the same engine with the same animations, and same overall "feel" of the game, people will compare them. I mean, Team Ninja made Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3 and nobody says that's a Nioh-like.
