Its Confirmed, only 3 weapon type

[Prince-Noctis]

It's confirmed: only 3 weapon types for the entire game.

There will be no new weapons in the base game.

They will see with futur dlc if they can but don't expect new weapon type for the base game

So saaaaad 😮‍💨

I'm still going to play it and I;m very much excited to experience the full game, but I was just expecting more then 3 weapon types is all, especially given the demo already lets us play with all of them already.

This is why I'm hoping they use that DFO knowledge to give us an impressive loot system where a legendary weapon can have unique qualities to combat, making it play slightly differently then the lower rarities. Whether its new moves added to your kit, new skills exclusive to that unique,...etc.

Yeah I'm hyped as well and hope the loot will be exciting enough

Definitely not expecting this to be on the level of Nioh tho

It depends what Nioh your talking about. On PC we were spoiled with BOTH Nioh 1-2 because we always got the complete editions of those games. So from my 3-5hrs with the demo I;'m expecting a BASE Nioh experience before the DLCs (like Wo Long or Strangers of Paradise PC launches), but with more polish and good performance lol (as already proven by the demo sections).

I have already fell in love with the combat in this game, so I'm not worry about not liking that aspect, its just will this be a one and done action RPG, or will it have the depth/legs to warrant multiple playthroughs with unique builds as the nioh games do.

Since it has loot I hope its highly replayable, and I'm curious that since its mission based, and the missions will have set levels like Nioh, if we will get a Nioh-like hub map with sub-missions, and if we will get a NG+ mode out of the gate to playthrough.

Honestly think I'll skip this game. I like games to have a bit more variety in possible build options and this game appears to have a grand total of 3 possible builds.

I'm also discouraged by the mission-based structure, making the game more rigid.

Shame, because combat seems pretty good, like a slightly jankier Lies of P. Might get the game on a sale at some point.

I don't think its fair saying that just because a game has 3 weapon types that there are only 3 builds lol. If the skill trees are intuitive enough late game, there are weapon elements (fire, ice, posion,,...etc) a single weapon type can have many different build possibilities.

In fact in I went through the demo 2-3 times and got my greatsword to play completely different from one another and that was with not even half the skill unlocked lol. One focused on parry/defensive skills, while the other was focused on more evasive skills that allowed me to stay on the offense.

I also completely disagree with the lies of P comparision. I liked that game enough for one playthrough and the demo combat alone blew that games combat feel out of the water. By mission 2 in the demo you were comboing multiple weapon skills together, while Lies of P is very basic in its builds even though it looks like it has a lot.

Was thinking more about the way LoP also focuses heavily on posture breaking through perfect guarding, but yeah, Berserker has more weapon abilities.

Which are still exceptionally barebones compared to something like Nioh, which I rate as being the best combat-centric soulslike ever. Nioh also has a ton of weapon types.

This game looks amazing and plays well. It just looks like it won't be anywhere near what it could have been.

given each type has 5 separate skill trees, it would be a bit overwhelming to be much more types, but i didn't expect them to show them all in a demo.

[armichurin]

The developer said: "Khazan wields a variety of weapons, from dual wielding weapons to a spear and a two-handed sword." ))

This is my biggest issue that as far as weapons we have already experienced the core moveset for all of them in full game.

I also hope we are not showered with skill points to the point we can get everything as that would really limit build variety.

Lol rip, dead game

[Kyota]

ER has 311 weapons.

TFBK has 3.

Man the difference between a master-piece and a bog-standard game is insane.

Hm.. thats a downer..

But its ok for me. I mean in sekiro you have also only your sword for the biggest part of fights.

For me this game is a nice filler. Im not mega hyped but im looking forward to it. Hope they adjust some balance here and there.

[HoneyDrake]

I am fine with a limited variation of weapon types. It's not like other games do a decent job at actually making them feel different. "Ohh, you instead of slamming down some mace, it's now a sword, so much innovation!"

Nah, every weapon type in the Demo played differently and in some cases the same weapon can be played differently, too.

It finally feels like a game dev takes weapon identities serious. Quite rare today.

have you already mastered and unblocked every nuance of the 3?

People are so entitled these days.

Well it was understandable from the demo that the variety of everything will be sad. Thanks for the demo. Now I can skip this products and save $40

Wukong cost 60$ and the only weapon is staff... or sekiro only a katana... This kind of game is skill-based, you customize the skills to make your own moveset. no need to get hundreds of weapon but same moveset...
