Nioh: Complete Edition is out on Steam

Team NINJA is providing us with a lot of great content. Not only do we have a full tournament at NEC 18, but the community now has access to an improved Ninja Gaiden Black on XBOX ONE X and now we have Nioh on PC which is mostly getting positive reviews from Steam. This is definitely the best way to play the game.

TECMO KOEI has shown a lot of interest in PC gaming and it has not only grown their fanbase but their pocketbooks as well. Since the PS4 version is still going for around $30, you might as well upgrade to the Steam version if you can. Not only will you get better visuals, but you will get the complete Nioh experience.

Seems to be heavily CPU-based as far as resource requirements go. My card and RAM are both better than needed by a bit, but the game does not run over 1080p with most graphical settings scaled down quite a bit. That said, it runs VERY WELL, rocking a solid 60fps, even with my very weak CPU, so if you want to dial things back and haven't played on a PS4 already, do yourself a solid and buy this game. It is very, very good and of the best action/adventure titles I have ever played.
 
Has anybody checked MSI Afterburner's OSD to see how much VRAM this game actually uses ?

Because I only got 2GB to Spare... which was a nightmare when playing Arkham Knight.

Well my computer sucks. It's an i5 but not a 3550 or higher, and my graphics card hasn't reached the minimum requirement. Oh well, back to playing the PS4 version l0l
 
Game seems to have a LOD bug.

Streams very low resolution textures on some objects even when you are close by.

Tell that to DOA5:LR on Steam....

In any case, I was never really interested in Nioh, but the reviews are really good. Maybe I should consider playing it, although I've been too busy playing For Honor lately.

Last thing I want is another Copy Cat....

Why’s wrong with LR on Steam?

DOA5LR for Steam feels like a bootleg port from the console. Lack of modes etc. If you look into the Steam version now, it's more popular to mod the game than actually playing it. Not that modding isn't cool, it's fun to do. It's just the game feels like a lessened port added to the PC where technically it's suppose to be superior than consoles, and people buy it just to mod it.

Basically TN didn't really add extraordinary flair or taking advantage of the PC with what it could do.

Depends on the person really. While the biggest difference is the lack of online modes (plural), outside of that the only real arguments that can be made are it's running DX9 instead of DX11 making it impossible to implement the "Soft Engine" (Sub Surface Scatter + Tessellation for more "realistic" breast bounce), lack of singular item costume DLC, and lack of Mouse support with full Keyboard rebinding support. You are able to run the game at higher resolutions, anti-aliasing, and shadows than the console versions though. Oh, and the lack of console input delay really shows on the PC. If only there were a lobby system then I'd play on PC version every day because the online is actually bearable.

For me, I don't consider it a bootleg port. Limited port? yes, for sure. but "bootleg"? meh...

Well for some reason it looks like I’m playing the game at .25 speed, so I don’t know. Seems like it’s got more issues then good
