The review
A historical Japan crowded with yokai. The stance system is the craft. Adults.
Nioh makes a fight feel like a skill, because it is one. It is not for a child. If it is in the house, it is after the day is done, and it does not get to teach that a person is a target.
Journal
Keep Nioh in the record.
No house has filed a sentence for this yet.
Live Historic number 49. Yours can differ.
The glance
Household and Piety and Republic and Temperance and Stewardship are the thin ones.
Is a marriage, a parent, or a child a real life here, or just a prop?
This phone is set for a grown person, just me. Change the ages.
Consider this
Red Dead Redemption 2
61 instead of 49
Red Dead Redemption 2 is still a action game, and it scores 61 instead of 49. What you gain is temperance: Red Dead Redemption 2 does not need a store to make its point.
The eight
- 7Industry
The fighting in Nioh is a craft. Pretending otherwise is how it sneaks in.
- 4Household
Houses exist in it mostly as things to lose or to leave.
- 3Piety
No prayer that matters. A cause, sometimes, and often only a flag.
- 9Courage
Standing the ground is the courage Nioh knows how to stage.
- 4Republic
A war is a public event. Nioh sometimes remembers the public.
- 3Temperance
The spectacle is the appetite. One mission is enough to see it.
- 6Truth
Nioh is truest when the enemy is allowed to have had a reason.
- 3Stewardship
What it leaves is a reflex. Notice the reflex before it leaves the room.
