I really want everyone to know how much more Titanfall 2 sold than Nioh. It was a staggering amount.
Metacritic up to 88. I was right.

Haha for now! If I had to guess, a couple of lower scores (such as Polygon) will have it settle at 87.
if Gamespot gives it that 9 out of 10 i'm thinking they will and the rest follow, i wonder if that will be enough to balance against polygon

Will certainly be close. I suppose it depends how low Polygon goes. I feel a 6 from Polygon would ensure an 87 Meta. A 7/10 or above leaves a possibility for 88. Both would be amazing Meta scores, of course.

This would give people some idea about how Polygon finds the game

It's there.
They think Nioh is confusing compared to Dark Souls, a game that literally tells you nothing other than the basic controls by writing them on the ground. Okay.

I really really hope this isn't becoming the next Witcher III / Bloodborne situation.
Souls fans and Nioh fans need to get along, just sayin'. Mostly they share the same camp.

Nioh would end up fighting with Souls, Nier, For Honor and probably even Horizon. Every one of those games would have strong passionate fans.

I love Souls and Nioh alike.
Don't think that's it, Nioh is definitely more technical than DS and there's a lot more to learn, to the point where I'd say DS is simple enough to just throw you out there while Nioh really needed the tutorials.

8 hours to complete the tutorial and first level? Are these guys for real?
I mean, I guess? But I really do feel that since DaS uses such an odd control scheme and makes very particular assumptions about how people are going to play that it's definitely more confusing coming from other action games.

I'm not one to mock people for being a little slow with games but 8h for the tutorial level seems excessive. There is hardly anything difficult in there.

it took me 2 hours and i got everything, it wasn't that hard at all.
Ah you're right. Wasn't showing up until I hit see all reviews.
That's crazy. At least that time is not just the

The lack of a Souls game this year should at least keep GOTY reasonably sporting. It'll still be a bloodbath but that has more to do with Zelda and Persona 5.

Clicking all these reviews very nice
Urgh, some places here in Germany didn't even get a charge?! Wtf
Zelda will win it, even though I don't think it looks great personally

Has that Gameplanet review been added to that 88 Metacritic score? Looking at what other reviews are out there, I'm thinking this might have a chance to hit 90 if Giantbomb reviews it and gives it 5 stars.
Looks like a 4 or 5 from giant bomb if they review it. Jeff and Jason are loving the technical combat and diablo loot means Jeff is into it too. "You can feed weapons to other weapons". Gamespot, I can see being 9 based on their review in progress. They're weighted heavily on metacritic. EZA hasn't released their review yet have they? Easy 4 or 4.5 from Ben though.
Er. Most people excited for Nioh ARE Dark Souls fans. The Witcher has a completely different design philosophy.I really really hope this isn't becoming the next Witcher III / Bloodborne situation.

If you put up a thread with the title "Is Nioh better than Dark souls?", you'll have battle lines drawn in seconds.
And there's plenty of chance for that to happen, don't forget the final DLC for DS3 would be out in a few short months.
But it would be more similar to a Demons Souls vs Dark Souls. Or Bloodborne vs Dark Souls 3 type of argument and not 'that Witcher/Nioh has shit combat/controls/gameplay!'
Also the DS3 dlc so far was considered disappointing by most. Nioh is the perfect remedy for fans growing bored.

I think the Nioh fans and Souls fans overlap in a pretty huge pool, and any vocal people folks that are against two awesome IPs existing that'll quench thirst are just the minority. My Souls groups on Facebook already opened Nioh groups.
Expect this soon from the LTTP masterbating threads.
"LTTP: Nioh - what the Soulsborne games should have been." 45 pages in a single day.
Its like how Souls fans often like Dragons Dogma. And many will say it has superior combat.
Just you.

It does a little bit sometimes on base PS4 in Action mode.
No not really lol
...What? 8 hours?
I'm only 6 hours in and I've completed... The 'Prologue' level, the tutorial, the 1st Level, the 2nd Level, 4 Sub-missions and half way through the 3rd level... and I've died a fair bit of times too and made sure to explore every corner... How could they take 8 hours to do not even half of that!?
I don't get it either. Tutorial level was ridiculously easy. I don't think it took me more than 50 mins and I searched every corner
I love Nioh, but it is dated visually.
