Nioh: Difference between revisions

Line 21:

* [[Distant Prologue]]: Sort of. The game's opening starts off in 1598, two years before the main plot begins.

* [[Follow the Leader]]: The games blatantly take many inspirations and mechanics from ''[[Demon's Souls]]'' and ''[[Dark Souls]]''. [[All The Tropes:Tropes Are Not Bad|The two games are often cited as among the few, if not the only, ''Souls''-likes that are actually good, and even surpass the originals in some areas]].

* [[Gameplay Ally Immortality]]: Any segment where another character follows you has that character be immortal. Significant damage will only result in that character kneeling over till healed or sufficient time has passed. This is most ~~noticible~~ in the second game, as such accompaniment is more frequent, but a few levels of the original had it as well.

* [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]]: The second game features character creation but the main character's parents (a Japanese historical figure and a Japanese looking yokai) are revealed very early on, and {{spoiler|knowledge of history indicates the main character would be 28 years old (at the start)}} while characters find nothing unusual about the appearance of the main character's human form {{spoiler|especially since they're twin to another, locally prominent, historical figure}}, so clearly you aren't ''supposed'' to be a blue skinned blonde [[Amazon]] with red eyes or a black man.

* [[Gender Flip]]: In the second game {{spoiler|Yoshitatsu, as the player character's identical twin, will be female if the player character is. Can also be a [[Race Lift]], but that falls under the above bit on [[Gameplay and Story Segregation]].}}
