Arrows and Bolts

[This is Aru]

Do you literally have to return to the village, run to the blacksmith and MANUALLY transfer arrows and bolts at a flag? Because right now, that seems to be the only way to restock without just buying more. It doesn't pull from your Storehouse. If this was supposed to be a limitation, why allow me to just run back to town and grab them? It makes NO SENSE.

Just a little feature they forgot about. It's not like they made any similar games before or anything with something resembling this kind of system.

Yeah it's trash. I just cheated infinite copper since it's useless anyway, and buy the arrows/bolts as I need them

You do you, but if you have to cheat some copper to buy ammo, that's kinda sad.

But yeah, the system as it is right now seems a bit half-baked. I hope this get's addressed in a patch down the line because small annoyances like this seriously add up over time.

My guess is that they used the Strangers of Paradise build of the engine to make this game, which is why there are so many missing quality of life things from Nioh 2. Even that had a world map to fall back to after missions though. This feels like they originally intended it to be open world and interconnected, but just... gave up and went back to doing missions again.

Hopefully they patch it in later. Still, arrows and bolts aren't that expensive and drop fairly often so it's not too bad. Repeating crossbows are really good here since you can carry up to 20 of them by default so you won't need to restock as often.

This is so weird. They just had to make a slightly better Nioh 2. Or at least Nioh 2: China edition and it would have been gobbled by famished souls fans.

I expect them to make a few stability patches and that's it. I wouldn't count on anything beyond fixing crashes and MAYBE a mouse fix. It's clear they'd already moved on from this game before it launched or we'd have these features already.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. They still need to sell three DLCs for this game...

Also, I they improved quite a few things for Nioh 2 during its lifecycle: balancing, QoL features, performance improvements.

Heck, they even put out a remastered version for the PS5.

But I agree that things do not really look all that great right now. I just don't think it'll stay that way. And I genuinely mean that: I do not just hope, but rather I think it will improve.

I know a lot of people still waiting and hoping that Fire Emblem Three Hopes will get these things too. Still waiting... any day now... they have to say something right? I don't know that I trust KOEI Tecmo anymore.

KOEI TECMO is infamous for bad ports, but how did Team Ninja end up in the same basket is beyond me.

Pretty much this.

I trust the developers, not the publisher. And if the publisher wants to put out more DLCs, they will continue to finance the studio which in turn will take a part of the time to improve the game. Not doing so would both break with what Team Ninja did before and it would make no sense, especially on a business level.

If they grind out the DLCs on a mixed rating (or worse) on Steam they would willfully jeopardize their bottom line.
