They took my Splitstaff and Hatchets. Maybe it is strong and I should play with it more, but I'm just not feeling it right now. No idea what I'd be doing wrong. Not being able to Ki Pulse and Flux by extension feels awful. I feel too comfortable with Samurai Style.

I love the stance system and how much skill expression there is. You can shred bosses if you know what you are doing. My biggest complaint about N3 right now is the Ninja stance. It feels weak, and they took some of my favorite weapons and sequestered them to it, removing their stances.

I'm not nearly that far yet, only around 30ish. I kinda enjoyed figuring out the jank of the old games (especially 1) but I can see it being a point of contention.

I'm a Nioh glazer so I've been having a great time. Though it maybe seems a tad easier than the first 2...
I haven't played Wuchang because I heard it was censored or something and that after they did that it wasn't as good? But I really haven't looked into it.
