Out of all the games that follow the Souls-like formula I think Nioh does it best and mixes it with looting and crafting systems.

I started with Nioh 2 (transforming into Yokai is fun) at first I thought the weapon stances would be a drag, but I actually quickly started to like it, and some weapons can go crazy with it!

I also like that in the Nioh games there is more verticality. Like in one Nioh 2 level you go from an undergroup dungeon to the top of a castle and go through 3- environments.

I have fully played 1, and have tried a little of 3... But I just prefer 2 so end up going back to it, 🙂

Played 1 and 2 for me 2 is a perfect mix. Need to try 3 but the look of it feels like it went off script

Ohhhh... It did. Simplified it. Idea isn't bad, but I feel like 3 would be best for a newbie. As less stances means less things to consider.

And yeah, 2 is perfect. Once I start a session of Nioh 2 I can go on for hours, lol

Helping people in multi-player is fun too, good way of making money for sure!
