Abstract: Nioh 's pedigree is rich in elements borrowed from several similar titles, including Bloodborne and Dark Souls, but it ultimately fails to differentiate itself when all is said and done. The Japanese-themed samurai story is intriguing upon initial glance...

Abstract: I have a confession: I'm not a fan of Dark Souls. I don't know what it was about the action RPG that never gripped me, but I never found enjoyment in playing a game that was created mainly just to torture it's audience with a ridiculous difficulty level a...

Combat is skillful and loads of fun, Open maps stuffed with encounters and secrets, Customization options are a welcome bonus, Adorable Kodama with cute little bowls for hats
