Title: Nioh "Last Chance" trial this weekend.
Post by: Let's Cyber on January 19, 2017, 09:29:40 AM
There is one last beta this weekend, available for preload on PSN

https://store.playstation.com/#!/en-us/games/nioh-last-chance-trial/cid=UP9000-CUSA07649_00-NIOHDEMO00000001

Full game releases on Feb. 7th in NA.

Anyone going to be buying this? I enjoyed the alpha and first beta. I love the high difficulty and the co-op is a lot of fun.

I want to get it, but I think I may hold off initially.  Just too many games coming out right now.

Yeah it is a rough time period but just early enough before Zelda that I should have the time.

I thought about buying Berserk Musou instead but this should have a lot more depth lol

Don't.  DON'T!!  :lol  Berserk isn't bad, but it's terribly generic and lacks content.  The roster is way, way too small.  I found it pretty forgettable although I'm also not a Berserk fan.

I see, thanks for the warning haha.

I'll wait til I can find it for cheap. I love Berserk so I feel entitled to at least try it.

Put a few hours in.  The new weapon class is really good and fun to use.  The boss is kicking my ass though  :lol

It might be bugged.

Did you already claim it from the alpha last year?

Nah, this is my first time ever playing Nioh.

I read a few posts at GAF and some other people were having the same issue.

Oh, I see.

How the hell did you beat Twilight Ogress?  I've been co-oping with my buddy and we can dominate the level but the boss has been an issue.

Same way as the regular Ogress. 

High stance with my finisher being the twirl move.  I simply used square -> triangle and tried to do the perfect Ki move to get a damage boost.  I just poked her a lot until she died.

hmmmm, we might be overthinking it then.  We usually get her down to 30% or so and start spamming magic and fire grenades from a distance but her charge attacks are deadly at medium range.

I'll try staying close and stick to melee for the full fight.

Yeah, got her on the first shot.  :P  Melee is definitely the way to go, no reason to get fancy with magic or ninjutsu.
