Not sure you’d like it them. It’s basically Dark Souls at the start, then it becomes much crazier like DmC without a jump button. You start by getting destroyed by any enemy, then YOU become the monster they should run away from. Amazing powertrip for the record.
Then, mix in some spells (slow casting, no spam), Diablo/Grim Dawn loot (best I have seen in a non-arpg), and endless content and variety.
It’s combat system is very good and much deeper than Souls, especially with the Ki Pulse - kind of a manual stamina recharge button the squeeze in between attacks, on block, etc. Ads a nice dance to the combat.
So… can you name a few games you did enjoy? It’s so good, make sure you don’t overlook it.

Quick question about the combat in Nioh and Nioh 2: how much of it would you say is action (combo system + combat mechanics) vs. RPG (gear and stats)?
I’m more of an action guy and don’t typically have a lot of fun with action RPGs or souls-likes, so I was wondering if it’s action enough for me.
Examples of the games I didn’t enjoy: The Surge, NieR:Automata, and Scarlet Nexus.
Nioh combat goes pretty squarely into the soulslike hole.
