Take the evaluation with a grain of salt. Souls-fans have no idea what good combat is like. Sekiro does have good combat though (because it's an action game, not an ARPG), so maybe this is indeed Team Ninja's Sekiro. But is it as good as their Ninja Gaidens? It's too early to tell by reviews. Everyone is mostly whining about the port so far and the Steam rating is "Overwhelmingly Negative" lol. But I went through a bunch and found some comments that look decent for first impressions.

Now first of all, let me tell you my fellow Nioh-fan brethren: This game, Nioh 3 is not. It's like Sekiro with a more agressive playstyle. It's good, flashy and the controls are tighter than my non-existent girfriend. It is hard and kinda unique and while it's nothing like Nioh, it HAS some elements of it. The superb character creator is in this game too, so are the spell, skill and gear system. Also the game's vibe is a lot like Nioh.

Now before you press that "add to cart" button, DOWNLOAD THE DEMO and try it yourself. Right now, the game has some major issues, mainly with the performance of the pc version. I won't sugarcoat it: The port is dogsh*t. Flickering, framerate issues, mouse and keyboard binding is crap. Some players actually report better performance on the full version, than what they got while playing the demo, In my case the performance is the same. It runs like a granny in a wheelchair. It doesn't matter what settings i use, i get the same barely playable dookie fps.

If you aren't sure, don't buy this right now. It's 70 bucks and honestly you'd be treated like a third class turd because you want it on pc. There is nothing wrong wanting at LEAST a SIMILAR experience on pc when you're expected to pay the same amount as our console bros. Get something else while they fix this absolute sh*tfest of a port.

Still, the game is fun, so I'll leave a thumbs up.

Some bosses are challenging and different and the ability to parry literally everything feels incredible. I can tell the game won't likely have the kind of replayability and longevity of Nioh 2, but it feels kind of like Team Ninja's version of Sekiro. The fluidity of combat, awesome combos and freedom to be as aggressive as you want while not having to neglect defense feels amazing and it may be my favorite combat system to date. I'm really looking forward to seeing how the game progresses and the spectacle that each boss brings with it. Highly recommend if you don't mind playing at 60 FPS and using a controller. Apparently Mouse & KB is horrific, so if that's all you have, it may not be for you.

Graphicly it look somehow slightly worse, too. But that's not the reason why I can't recommend the game in its current state.

In the past 3 hours of playing, I've had couple of crashes. I had 2 crashes in the beginning after two different cutscenes. And another 2 crashes after simply exiting the game.
Having to worry about whether or not the game will crash during gameplay instead of having to worry about what's hiding around the corner while you're exploring really ruins the immersion.

Hopefully they'll manage to fix it. It is still a fun game.
If the game was a year exclusive to PlayStation like both Nioh games was, I don't think we'd have these problems. It's just sad to see games being released broken is the norm these days.

The game is only decent if you play on console/single player.
