Me after listening to Scott and Josh ‘I need this game, NOW!!!’ 🎮

Everyone is comparing Ronin to Sekiro, Nioh and Ghost of Tsushima. Some are even disappointed because Ronin is NOT one of those games.
And there's me who is still looking forward to Ronin because I see it as a "What If" Way of the Samurai was made by Team Ninja.

Who would've thought a game focused on gameplay instead of trying to win the next Oscars would be good.

Samurai's with revolvers is so tight.

Open World and Souls like combat really do play to each other’s strengths. Having trouble with a particular boss or area? Just go do another quest or area and come back with better skills or equipment.

Nioh meets sekiro meets the fun versions of assassin’s creed? I don’t care if it’s derivative it looks fun lol. Remember when video games used to be fun?

We don’t need graphics that blow us away, really good graphics are good enough. F ray tracing, F locked 4K, F all the graphics terms that nobody knows that they mean. We need games with great gameplay first, second, third, and eighth. Thats why Helldivers 2 has taken the gaming world by storm.

I guess this game is gonna divide a lot of people. Folks complaining about graphics but the combat and gameplay looks real fun to me. Especially with it being a mix between Sekiro, GoT, and nioh. Plus IZUNA DROP IS BACK!! Yeah I’m fully on board

Easy mode, as a father/business owner/filthy casual, this makes me happy! 😂

I feel like ghost of Tsushima that people loved really added to the hype to rise of ronin. Man febuary and march releases are amazing in still completely on ff7 rebirth but then have a tough decision rise of ronin or dragons dogma 2. This has been a great year for gamers so far

thank you for an actual in-depth, thoughtful discussion. The subreddit for this game is a bit panicky these days, and this helped a lot. How have I never heard of this channel before? :D

NGL this looks more fun than Dragon's Dogma.

As gamer with additional support needs, glad to here about openness. Not against difficultly but difficultly means different things to different people. So even easy can challenge me at times. Can't wait to play.

Pre ordered this a few days ago. Looking at your first impressions, I think I will have a good time

really appreciate the discussion about difficulty, I know it's from the people who made Nioh and I'm not a Souls person so thinking it may have been another Soulslike put me off and I haven't found anybody else talking about that.
joeldfisher
I appreciate when game devs give difficulty levels/choices. I typically play most games on default/normal but with the rise of souls likes I eventually hit a wall on some and the game stops being fun so I don't want to go back to it and that's so disappointing

I bought the Digital Deluxe Edition afew weeks ago, and yesterday bought Dragons Dogma 2 Digital Deluxe Edition for Xbox and both release on the same day

This game just looks better and better every time I see it. It went from a wait for reviews to a day one purchase for me. Just gotta finish Rebirth and try and wrap up Persona 3 Reload asap.
