Apparently Nioh 2 is great

My Man.
The alpha felt like a dream game.Punitive,unforgivable and technical like no other.
Then I had to play a super dumbed down version after release,I'm still disturbed.
How much different did the final version with the alpha build?
I only experienced the beta and final release, so I'm a bit curious about the alpha version since I heard the gameplay was more punishing.
Without talking from an output damage standpoint...the annoying thing is that they changed the positioning of the enemies and even lowered the aggressiveness of them giving the game the bad feeling of being more stupid than the demo in general.
The big problem of the first game was enemy and level variety. Especially enemy variety.
I think it is one of the problems but not the worst.
I remember playing Nioh and not understanding what was going on. Terrible narration.
Nioh 2 uses a Create a Character system, so you can probably just make her if you want.
From what I remember, there were way more ennemies to deal with and they would follow through the entire level. Shortcuts were way more important as a result, whereas most of them don't really matter in the final game.
There was also weapon durability, which was whatever.
I liked Nioh, but at this point in time I see the series as a blockade to the next Ninja Gaiden. Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to Nioh 2, but only as a stop gap filler to learn from and make a better Ninja Gaiden game.
Itagaki is probably under a poker table with 3 empty whiskey bottles unconscious right now.

Here's hoping it isn't as butt ugly as the Souls character creator.
Eitherway, I'd rather there be an actual main character (with an option to create a custom character if you want).
I hope the bosses are less punishing than in the first game. I loved the game but I found the bosses way too obnoxious to the point I gave up playing it.
Wait really? I know William wasn't the greatest but to get a silent protagonist instead.. zzz
Would've preferred they tried to make a well written character instead.
Will play it anyways.
Not surprising. Better enemy variation alone, will take the sequel up a notch.
Something I hope for too

They haven't confirmed anything yet I believe. But I think it's safe to assume PS4 and PC probably like others said. I wish they would bother with Xbox too but it seems unlikely.
Chill with the endless loot + improve the level design/enemy variety/atmosphere, and they could have a gem on their hands. I wanted to like NioH more because the combat is great, but I bounced off after like 4 levels or so.
Nioh 2 needs to seriously revamp the inventory and loot system. Its the reason I never finished the game, too many headaches trying to organize everything.
Hope mission/map design will be improved by adding more variety. Nioh1 had pretty samey locations and got pretty boring and a drag later on. More enemy variety wouldn't hurt either.
