It's literally free... you should ask yourself if it's worth playing instead.

I'd say play 2 first, take a break, 3, then another break before 3's DLCs.

>>737122073
Just play 2, then take a break, and you'll be ready to play 3 once all dlcs are out and the game is complete.

>>737122073
3 is fun, but I think 2 with all DLCs is better if you haven't done all of them. When 3 has all of its DLCs I'll see where it stands compared to 2.

In its current state, 2 with DLC is better but 3 is fantastic too and whether it will overtake 2 depends on the quality of DLCs.
They need to patch in pic related as a sword skill in particular because it's literally used by MC's mentor in the first 20 minutes

>>737122073
Get 2
And pirate it
Don't buy shit on steam if you can pirate
Gaben is the reason we have drm like steam in the first place where your account is tied to your games

>with dlc
The dlc in 2 has a pretty awful clear rate, it adds basically nothing to the game

>>737124791
All DLCs have worse clear ratings than the base game and 2's dlcs brought new weapon types, new weapon attacks and a billion of patches and fixes to the base game on top of it.

>>737124791
That’s not reflective of the quality. The dlc in 2 was pretty decent. The new environments were refreshingly distinct from the main game and the new enemies really add to the game when it’s all combat. Old samurai in particular serves up many enemies that challenge someone and the dlc bosses are generally good as well.

>>737122073
play through 2, once you finish it, take a break, and then pick up 3.
preferably closer to september which is when the first DLC for 3 releases
3 is AMAZING but NG+ isn't really worth playing yet atm, sadly.

>>737124691
1 is kino but it's way more fun building your own character in 2 & 3

>>737126817
wirriam is best protagonist

>>737126817
Character creation is cool but most people only skip Nioh 1 because it's too hard. Stance switching feels more like a necessity than a random misclick in that game.

>Stance switching feels more like a necessity
as it should be, it's a core part of the game and I strongly dislike it that it's possible to finish a game without it

>>737122073
2 is better but 3 has the "press button to parry" mechanic which some people are addicted to.
Wait until 3 gets its dlcs

>>737127714
OP asked 2 or 3.

I played through only in ninja stance. Did I really beat the game

>>737129008
Buy 1.

>>737129324
Yes because you basically tried out a new style. Samurai is akin to what you get in Nioh 1/2

>>737122073
Yes, it's worth it but there's no reason to go out of order so maybe finish 2 first.

>>737129324
Unless it's a world's first, no, not really.

>>737122073
It's fun, yes get it. I think 3's open world is more easy for casuals to get into.

>>737122073
>body type 3
No.

Play 2. 3 is garbage.

>>737129429
I beat nioh 1 with all of its DLCs on all the difficulties whenever that came out

Gave my PS4 away and swapped to PC mid way through nioh 2 and never played it again. Maybe I should give it a shot again.

I heard the mods were pretty good for nioh 2. Is that true or is alot all coomer and cheat shit

I've been playing it since launch, still halfway through the game.
RoTR is a better game imo, I beat it in less time and felt more playing it, it's also a faithful recreation of Yokohama, Edo (Tokyo) and Kyoto during the upheaval following Matthew Perry's arrival. The game has british and american characters so it's more relatable to a player from a western country.

Yes

Yes

>>737124691
I assumed he'd played it already considering he's asking for a suggestion between 2 and 3.

>>737127714
>random misclick
self report

3's story was basically just 2 again.
