Support NeoGAF

[Son Of Sparda]

Ah, that's bummer.

Still, can't wait to finally play this.

 

[Jake2by4]

Wish the demo didn't have a expiration date, we barely get demos nowadays but i'll take what I can get

 

[Kudo]

Is there set time the store will be updated with the demo?

 

[The God]

Supposedly it's up on the AU store. Can someone check that?

I'm ready, nice surprise for tomorrow

 

[ironcreed]

Nier and Ni-Oh. PS4 on fire for me.

 

[Flopfan]

My body is ready.

Demos unlocked in AU already. It looks pretty brutal, regular enemies can take half your health with one hit.

I still can't believe we're getting these two games cause they look soooooo damn right up my alley. Hope they really put in work on both titles and make them the best they can be cause these IPs will be worth it I feel. Can't wait to try the Nioh alpha for myself.

 

[TheSpoiler]

This might carry elements of the other games like Oni and Dark Souls, but it's definitely not those games when you actually play it. It looks like a more methodical NG, and I mean that in the best way possible.

is the game targeting 30fps or is that just the player's capture card?

The game is 60fps.

 

[lcap]

Man, looking REALLY god for now. Tomorrow can't come soon enough.

What capture card? He's clearly streaming straight from the PS4.

 

[generic_username]

Why would they do that? Is it because it has an online system similar to Souls? Such a bummer. Oh well atleast I will have time this weekend to give the demo a go. So excited about this game.

 

[brawly]

I only have a HK and JP account, don't think it's up there yet. Time to make an aussie account.

 

[The Flash]

Praise the (Rising) Sun?

 

[Jimmyfenix]

this looks so much like souls

 

[DannyDanger]

Do we know if this game has a traditional story, or if its obscure and lore-y like soulsborne??

Love souls games, but i literally ignore the lore stuff.

Good to hear. It can retain similar aesthetics but at least it isn't a copy cat and is its own thing.

Have you played this game? Interesting to hear that it is more like a methodical NG. I think I will like that!!

Information overload.

Can't wait to check it out, looks fucking great. Hopefully it plays as well as it looks.

 

[Gurrry]

Holy shit this looks like dark souls! Does anyone know if it will play like that too?

 

[ThoughtsOfSpeaking]

looks like what I expected. Slower NG with a Stamina bar.

 

[GarciaHotspur]

[Broadbandito]

guy on stream was kinda meh but the game looks fucking awesome. Can't wait to experience the 60 fps

 

[jacobeid]

Given that they're releasing a demo now, does anyone else think that this game could hit during the summer lull? I'm guessing August...

 

[AAMARMO]

i think it was already confirmed for Fall this year

That seems reasonable and I hope so since a more quiet period would be good for this game getting more attention.

 

[Solrac]

early impressions: 20min or so

graphics, it doesn't matter what mode you choose ( movie / action ) it looks like an early ps3 games, and runs super bad ( i know is an alpha ).

button mapping looks like a complete mess, you have to use your dpad ( up ) to use your estus.

combat, feels clunky and unfair, maybe I need to try more to get used to it.

 

[Ydelnae]

I ran to the store thinking the demo was up for EU and now I'm like "duh
