Incline Team Ninja's Rise of the Ronin

[Pink Eye]

No PC no interest. Not even watching the trailer.

Same. I was hyped then saw Playstation exclusive. Hard pass. I ain't buying a new console to play one game when I already have an expensive PC at home that can play games and do other things.

 

[Softgels]

Horrible horse movements.

"console exclusive"=PC version within a year

 

[Forest Dweller]

It's Team Ninja, take a guess nigger.

 

[SerratedBiz]

Why is anyone excited about Way of the Ghost of Tsushicreed? Trailer looks generic as fuck.

 

[Jinn]

Probably because an open-world action RPG in this setting with Nioh-style combat and Team Ninja's overall design sensibilities sounds fucking amazing.

 

[HoboForEternity]

Team ninja is ON A ROLL

 

[Machocruz]

Heckin nice. I'll have something to use PS5 for in two years. Best purchase I ever made!

 

[ADL]

I'm fine with the "exclusivity" if it's anything like the Nioh games. When we eventually got them, they came at a discount with all the DLC and were incredibly polished PC ports.

 

[Suicidal]

On one hand, it's Team Ninja and they've been doing good recently. On the other hand, looks like an open world Ubisoft-like + PS exclusive, even if temporary. Not terribly excited, but maybe it will be good/decent.

Pinch of salt, and all that.
Link to rumor.

-Game is a mix of Assassin’s Creed, Ghost of Tsushima, and Dark Souls

-Many item descriptions are used to make the lore bigger and better (E.G: "(...)It was produced in the craftsmanship style associated with a renowned blacksmith named Okisato Nagasone, who lived in Musashi during the 17th century and was also known as Kotetsu.(...)")

-Numerous side-quests that are more like Ubisoft side-quest designs

-Difficulty options

-Skill and technique trees

-Performance and quality modes (trying to improve fidelity before launch)

-Planned romance options

-Planned Q1 2024

 

[Jinn]

Will probably be good as long as they don't lean too hard into that Ubishit influence. My confidence in Team Ninja has been somewhat shaken by Wo Long, however, so I don't know anymore.

 

[cruel]

All of this looks like huge decline, if true. Difficulty options, mission level, Ubisoft-like quest design, seriously? I can't believe there are any companies who look at Ubisoft for any rules on game design. It seems they are hoping for big $$$ by making the game more accessible, unfortunately.

What's even worse, the leak looks pretty realistic. Team Ninja likes to release all their games in Q1 (Nioh, Nioh 2, Wo Long), and I wouldn't be surprised if menu / map looked just like they were presented.

DISGUSTING

 

[cretin]

grafix look last gen which I take as a promising sign that theyve focused on gameplay

 

[KIss My Ass]

What? They just released a game like a couple months ago.

B team

 

[musouking]

Same release day with Dragon's Dogma 2 LOL

 

[HoboForEternity]

Yeah

RIP

 

[Modron]

If the release date isn't for pc who cares?

 

[deuxhero]

Wo Long's tranny shit taking priority over the game actually having basic functionality kills any interest.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

 

[Suicidal]

I think that combat against humans is where Nioh's mechanics truly shine, unfortunately the devs put the least amount of effort into designing human enemies in the games - little variety, human bosses are very easily cheesed, etc. So a game with Nioh-like combat that focuses on fighting humans could be very fun. Open world is a huge red flag however and it's PS5 exclusive at least temporarily, so I'll just wait and see.

 

[cruel]

D1P as usual for me with all Team Ninja games. They disappointed me a little bit with Wo Long, but will give them another chance. What worries me is that I smell some 'popamole' vibes from this one, let's hope I'm wrong.

 

[Matador]

These guys are never gonna make another Ninja Gaiden game.
