The character customization is solid and there's a great variety of cool looking armor sets and weapons.
The gameplay is solid, and I've been having a lot of fun. The more you progress and unlock the myriad of skills, the better it gets.

>game has shitton of recycled elements from N1
>game itself recycles recycled elements during entire gameplay
>recycles fucking bosses 7000000000000 times
>game recycles enemies from the first area throughout entire game and they're just getting stronger
if you can ignore all of these garbage, you're truly a braindead ape
but enough about elden ring
Elden ring has like 5 times more enemy and boss variety lmao.
yes such as "enemy they copied from the previous games in various colors"
but enough about nioh
counter argument: I like Nioh and Elden Ring is Gay
counter argument: Nioh sucks
Don't forget such hits as "plagued dog whose attack hits on every single frame of animation"
no, no it doesnt LMFAO
don't reply to shitsmears

>waaah the sequel uses assets from the first game and dares to use one enemy more than once
Not even worth a (you)
Keep bumping the thread though worthless maggot
It's a shame neither game really uses its cast of great characters to full effect
It's impossible to make a game about a 50+ years period and utilize its entire cast well honestly
Within the arpg genre it still manages to accomplish some superb moments here and there
kino
I really like nioh 2, it's too bad I didn't like wolon as much
I wish I could even run wo long to find out if I like it or not
game just does not work on a 2060
I played on 2060 relatively fine, a lot better than SoP at release. I can't remember if I had to cap it at 30
You either need to work on your tolerance for shitgraphics or your CPU sucks
I had everything set to lowest at one point and it ran the same as ever, and if a 13700k can't handle the game there's an issue on the dev's end
I never tried capping it to 30 like the others suggested, maybe that would have somehow helped
wo long becomes better and better with every patch
They just added a bunch of new mechanics to the weapons like guard point at the beginning of axe/hammer attacks or ability to start infinite combo after any staff swing.
Try to set the framerate limit to 30 in the config file. The PC port is fucked and just refuses to work for some people
>wo long becomes better and better with every patch
even before the nioh "update" wo long was still worse than lords of the fallen (2023). so if anyone reading this has played lords of the fallen, know that wo long is worse.
>wo long was still worse than lords of the fallen (2023)
Wo Long is a competently made ARPG while LOTF is an abomination of game design released a year before it was ready
Now jog back to fight 500 flame zombies in bramis castle, far away from this thread
>Wo Long is a competently made ARPG
LOL
Lol yourself homosexual. LOTF is trash. Wo Long has issues, but it's nowhere nearly as bad as that game. Not even your buddies on reddit defend it at this point.
>LOTF is trash.
Never said it wasn't. Just saying Wo Long is worse.
In literally every aspect but maybe visuals wo long absolutely destroys that pile of filth.
Disagreed. Lotf has a better story than Wo Long, better character designs, better music, better world, better world design, better visuals, better music
I'll think of some more
>Lotf has a better story than Wo Long
lotf "story" is literally "in what way you want to see you getting dicked by the gods"
I will take 3 kingdoms over that garbage any day
>better character designs
lmao
> better music
Lu Bu's theme >>>>>>
>better world, better world design
Wo Long has individual missions, it doesn't have "world design", braindead homosexual
And yet in terms of individual levels it's far superior compared to claustrophobic narrow passageways of LOTF
>Team Ninja fan talking about narrow hallways and enemy variety
Pot calling the kettle black. Get some self-awareness.
Wo Long has several semi-open levels you can tackle from different routes like Mightiest Among Men. LOTF levels are literally narrow passageways, sometimes blocked by umbral. The sole exception is the Manse. And not only LOTF has a worse enemy variety, mechanically they are significantly inferior as well.
>LOTF levels are literally narrow passageways
Pilgrim's Perch has more branching pathways than anything in Wo Long. You run from point A to point B in the sewers and do dreadful jump and slash gameplay. And you don't even get pretty vistas like in Lords of the Fallen.
>Pilgrim's Perch has more branching pathways
Pilgrim's Perch is linear as all fuck. It has a single actual branching pathway leading to the Manse and a few dead ends accessible from the pilgrim key. That's worse than any Wo long level if you want to find all the flags.
>They just added a bunch of new mechanics to the weapons
More like made every weapon braindead.
every weapon was already braindead
>weapons now actually get their own identity and unique gimmicks
>anon is angry just because
Here's my kpop toon but I like Dark Souls better
>The more you progress and unlock the myriad of skills, the better it gets
this has extreme diminishing returns where you don't even have to interact with your opponents anymore and can just spam everything to death
this never actually happens, the webms of people going ham require autistic AI manipulation
dont you need to be like level 8 billion in order to do that
that doesn't really happen unless you're autistic or you make a game-breaking build
idk man i'm just using a hayabusa build and it's certainly easier than early game, the amount of dodge spam you're allowed eventually is ridiculous. I don't even have to learn their moves I can just gtfo whenever I want and revive multiple times with ninjutsu.
The game scales fairly well, even up to NG++. The game consistently throw more difficult enemy and encounter to keep you on your toes despite of your expanded skillset and gears. You can go full autism and go out of your way to grind every meta shit to break the game afterward.
Magic spam build requires a literal endgame abyss dive.
Beat the base game a couple weeks back, gonna play the DLCs soon, hope there's some cool story stuff, loved Tokichiro's arc.
DLC has best girl Raiko and all the coolest fights between both games, the story is more of the same but very cool in presentation
>wonder what build should I make
>"just use the items with the highest numbers and ignore the perks on the items until ng+"
I don't like this
The first run is for finding out what you like to use. You can't even begin to make a build when you don't have access to all the systems.
but why I can't access all the systems already?
I don't know if I want to make another run
>why I can't access all the systems already?
Sales are already gated by the loot system switching off peoples' brains. Imagine if you had to throw graces and a laundry list of passive and active effects on top of that from the get-go.
NG+ goes by super fast compared to the first cycle anyway because you only have to complete the shortest missions to advance.
>you only have to complete the shortest missions to advance.
why? iirc story missions were the longest right?
The way it works is each mission contributes to a progress bar on the world map, so you just do all the shortest missions you can to rocket through each difficulty and only stop when your gear is lacking.
what build should I make
Literally just level all stats equally so that you can use all weapons and armor, this is not Souls, your build is your gear + jutsu/magic loadouts.
Then don't do it. People suggest that because other people get so anal about thinking they need specific gear to win or do anything when it's always just a matter of them being shit at the game and not learning the many other more important factors at the time it matters most. There are less set bonuses available but effects are always interchangeable at the blacksmith and there are still multiple options. Reminder to report vatnagger for being a schizo freak.
Wo Long is still the worst ARPG I played this year and I played Bleak Faith: Forsaken.
that's going too far
I expected Bleak Faith to be that bad, so the low points weren't as miserable as Wo Long.
I honestly fuck around with the photo mode more than the actual game.
Bleak Faith Forsaken also has better world design than Wo Long
1 Lords of the Fallen character has deeper lore than the entirety of Wo Long lmao
Get back to being dicked by Orius, westcuck.
Keep enjoying your gutter oil action rpg
Sure, i will. Keep being assfucked by the incompetent devs jacking spell prices by 500% because they have literally no fucking idea how to balance the game.
>Sure, i will
yikes
Chang will defend anything if it has a Three Kingdoms name attached to it
westoid will defend anything that has trannies and homosexuals in it
I knew it you fucking loser
knew what homosexual lover
I thought this was a Nioh thread
Chang said Wo Long is better with every patch and it isn't
he said it gets better and better with every patch, not that it's better than Nioh 2
I wouldn't know because it still has performance problems so I refuse to play it
Well Lords of the Fallen gets better and better with every patch too, objectively.
It gets worse, actually. Have you missed a gigantic spergout about the recent patches? They decided to change weapon progression for literally no reason, literally bricking some playthroughs in a middle of it, and continuously nerf shit to the point of being unusable like exploding bolts using 10 ammo per shot.
Yeah I'm still on 1.1.243. Current Steam version is 1.1.292
So you have literally no idea what you're talking about.
Well I haven't kept up with Lord of the Fallen's most recent patches but for the most part it gets better
Even their older patches only made the game worse. They introduced more lag on PS5 and jacked up the price of pilgrim's key which was the only real progression fork.
Stop talking out of your ass, it's fucking embarrassing.
>Even their older patches only made the game worse
see
>They introduced more lag on PS5
World's smallest violin for the snoygger
it's a complete dice roll if a LotF patch improves something or not since they have no idea what they're doing and are just vomiting out changes based on the last forum post they read
Show me your Wo Long playtime
I deleted that shit obviously.
Every Nioh thread has that one schizo who compares it to whatever soulslike is currently relevant to try and get (You)s
1.1.243 of Lord of the Fallen is better than the original version. Maybe not 1.1.292
shame we got that soulless FF game and no soul long instead of a proper Nioh sequel
>toons
I fucking hate neo v
Shame we're getting that soulless snoy game and no soul long instead of a proper Stranger of Paradise sequel
