Nioh Impression – PS4

Dark Souls Remastered for the Switch got delayed from May to summer and now to OCTOBER. So I tried to find something to fill the void. Nioh is one of the latest games from Team Ninja, makers of many fan favorites such as the Ninja Gaiden series. It would be derivative to call this a dark souls clone but it has many of the same trappings as the now famous From Software series. It seems like a cool twist on the very medieval style of the DS games though, opting to take place in feudal Japan instead.

Dark Souls III Review

From Software released Dark Souls III (DS3) last week and I was in line at midnight ready for it to hit store shelves. It’s arguably the series I’ve spent the most time with in terms of total hours and I couldn’t put it down except to go to work and sleep. These games have a reputation of difficulty to uphold and let’s just say that this was a Souls game, through and through. Many moments I held the controller angrily in my hand as a I died and others with it victoriously in the air. The roller coaster of emotions goes from curiosity, to suspense, to relief, to anger, to accomplishment, and finally to pleading.
