The beta for this game was absolutely amazing, I want it as soon as possible.
I really play a lot of games and usually don't struggle with them as much, even more complex ones but honestly Nioh kicked me so hard in the balls upon trying the demo. Not sure how the second demo was but the first one was just infuriating. Even as a patient player, the overall game felt so frustrating. I didn't like the controls nor the menus, perhaps I was not in the right mood but it felt overly difficult.

I only watched the second demo, but from what I saw, it seemed they made the combat a little bit more forgiving. It also seemed like you were punished less for losing stamina. You seemed to only pant if you got hit with no stamina as opposed to panting once you run out.
But like I said, I didn't play the second demo, so I could be wrong.
Well I was completely unaware of this. The monster and environment designs look pretty awesome
only part I'm not super interested in is the fact that we're (maybe?) playing a white dude and also he looks like bootleg Geralt

Apparently the game and character are suppose to based on [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Adams_(sailor)"]William Adams[/URL], who is supposedly the first western samurai. Obviously, the game is heavily romanticized.

It also seems it's just a coincidence that he looks similar to Geralt, seeing as that he the protagonist was always intended fair haired Englishman.

Stuff like durability and stun after using all stamina are gone (now you need to get hit while having no stamina to get stunned) for big differences.
Got to see the sickle and chain plus a greatsword? Definitely excited and waiting for a collector edition
Ohh.

Oh...
Yeah, durability for equipment disappeared with Beta 2, with weapons having a familiarity bar instead that makes said weapon more powerful with use. And i read that you could spend that on certain attacks, i do like that system.
In Beta 1, running out of stamina would leave you stuck on the spot for a few seconds, essentially a death sentence. It was harder to fall into that state through roll spamming or sprinting more than you should, but since attacks take some stamina off (i think anyway) getting hit when in low stamina would leave you to a repost/guard broken state.
I seriously want this game.
