Im still aware of how polarizing this game is. Once you understand how insanely important your stamina is, and how to manipulate your opponent's, the difficulty lowers a few notches. The game wants you to constantly experiment with weapons to unlock new skills and diversify your loadout for encounters, but i stuck with Odachi and solo sword with 0 issues. Magic and tools? I throw a shurikan once in 16 hours. Its needlessly littered with mediocre mechanics that you can flatout ignore. Its not a GREAT soulslike, lets get that out of the way. I can't explain it, maybe a stroke hit me between playthrough attempts, maybe dementia is hitting me at 30, maybe my bar for soulslikes is has gotten lower, for whatever reason. I picked up Nioh again after picking it up for $5 for nothing more than justifying my hatred towards this franchise. Enemies are spongy, the loot system is needless and adds nothing more than constantly looking for up arrows on gear, menus upon menus of several dozen mechanics and skills, an overwhelming amount of mechanics in a genre that should just be about learning attack patterns and finding a favorite weapon, death is frequent and instantly dying is usually the cause. I played the game at launch and absolutely hated every minute of it.
