tl.dr: its a fun fighting game i will recommend, but expect no greater challenge (by default mode)

Have you ever seen the family guy meme of noah's ark?
Well since i started wo long, this meme kept popping up in my mind.

Wo long ... is not Nioh 3 as much as i would have liked it to be that:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Its more like a bastadized mix between nioh 1 and sekiro. Or in other words: "team ninjas bloodborne"

Take Niohs Combat system and plaster the sekiro deflect over it. Thats Wo Long pretty much.
Its also a lot easier in comparison. I got my ass handed to me in other souls-like games.

I should mention, I love the Nioh games, more than dark souls or even elden ring. However, I am pretty bad at it. In comparison, I had no issue with wo long, I think without the hard mode or NG+ its realitively easy.
You have to learn how to do the counter-deflect it makes the game a lot easier

listen to the sound cues if you are having trouble, I realised it at the Lu Bu fight at first, but maybe I wasn't paying attention in the tutorial

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i woud advise the game if:
1. you like fast paced fights and not having to wait a decade to get a safe hit on the boss (looking at you elden ring)
2. you are into chinese history/folklore. Like Nioh 1 & 2 they did a nice job to show the story of the three kingdoms by overlaying quasi-historical facts with a supernatural undertone
