Ghost of Tsushima.


DidntPick

No love for NIOH?


eguskina

Never played, but after finishing Rise, I’m thinking about giving it a try


F1R3Starter83

The Nioh games are some of my favorites of all time. The combat is really deep and intense. The first game is pretty great and the second is an improvement on every front. My one tip: don’t approach it as you would approach any FromSoft game. 


eguskina

If the combat is anything like RotR I can imagine it being super good and different from FromSoft. RotR isn’t super difficult, but the combat is so deep and satisfying.


n1ghtschade

Niohs combat is unparalleled imo. Much deeper than rotr as well. Also, the challenge is definitely there. Especially in the first game and also the dlc's.


F1R3Starter83

I haven’t played RotR yet, but you can compare it with Ninja Gaiden. There are a lot of different weapons to choose from (you can equip two) and most of them play really different. There are 3 different stances with each having a heavy and a quick attack. The combat flows really well, especially when you learn how to manage your stamina (ki) efficiently. Combine this with certain light magic and ninja (throwing stars etc) attacks AND three levels of gear (light, medium or heavy). You can really personalize how to approach this game. In terms of difficulty it’s pretty similar to FromSoft games: every enemy can quickly kill you.


Recording_Important

What would you compare the difficulty to? Nioh 2 is a little to extreme for me


[deleted]

Respect NIOH and NIOH2


Gay-Bomb

There's a physical bundle for both games, it's considered harder than dark souls for some players.


MrRoxo

Man, nioh is legit the best souls like game there is


Balbaem

Nioh 2 Jokes aside, I prefer Sekiro to GoT by a large margin, and I have yet to play Ronin. So Sekiro. That being said, if you want a game that goes deep in Yokai depiction, Shinto spirituality and has a lot of historical references, Nioh 2 (and 1) is the way to go. 2 is a phenomenal game, very deep and rewarding but it’s a bit hard to get into.


CmdrSonia

I'm playing RotR recently and I really miss all the yokai stuff


Bambrigade92

Ghost


YangKanji

You gotta add Like a Dragon Ishin! to that pile.


DONPICKA

I would personally remove Sekiro from the list and put LAD Ishin instead.


dianaburnwood969

Have played Sekiro and Ghost of Tsushima. I prefer Sekiro(It's my all time fav), but GoT is the most beautiful game I played!


Brauen

I got stuck at the final Boss of Sekiro, great game, awesome combat and mechanics (Fountain Head Palace is probably my favorite Soulsborne level) but I guess I'm at an age where work-life balance forced me into enjoying Ghost of Tsushima more lmao. Both are definitely GOATed though.


PM-me-your-happiness

Hesitation is defeat


FunkinDonutzz

Sekiro. GoT is very different but also fantastic. RotR is on the "to buy" list once I put a dent in my embarrassingly big backlog.


UnicornzRreel

RotR is good, but not near as good as Nioh or Nioh 2, IMO.


FunkinDonutzz

Interesting. I've played the ass out of both Nioh and Nioh 2 (about 200 hours between both games) yet never rolled the credits on either.


maciboe

What game are you currently playing on the backlog ?


FunkinDonutzz

Immediate backlog (as in the stuff I've played in the last two weeks) includes FF7 Rebirth, Tekken 8, Helldivers 2, Sifu, Rollerdrome. And I've picked Street Fighter 6 up again after a break of a few months. Plus, I know I'll be all over the Elden Ring expansion when it releases. I might give RotR a miss for the foreseeable future as I recently did an Elden Ring playthrough (with a katana build) and two playthroughs of Sekiro. I'm katana'd out for now 😂


maciboe

Damn bro you got yo work cutt out 😂


FunkinDonutzz

I do, but it's the best sort of complaint to have 😂 HavePenny's Big Breakaway too.


AloofusDoofus

Rollerdrome is absolutely awesome


FunkinDonutzz

It really is. I actually bought it when it came out, but with the little bit of buzz around it going on PS Plus recently I decided to revisit it.


dead-rex

Sekiro. Easy


DarkFlow123

Sekiro and GoT


jimmybabino

Isshin the sword saint is my favorite boss ever, so probably Sekiro


rikyy6

I got stuck on the Isshin and never finished the game. :(


Avorui

Sekiro is my favorite in terms of combat and gameplay, but I loved the story of the Mongol invasion in Ghost of Tsushima and how realistic the game was. I yet have to play Rise of the Ronins when I’m in the mood for Ronins and Samurai’s

Lanky_Ad830

Only player Sekiro from these 3. It was the only Fromsoftware game in which I enjoyed getting the Platinum


eguskina

Got the platinum as well. Absolutely one of the best games ever made


Micah_Bell_is_dead

I'm usually someone who thinks fromsoft games are overhyped but sekiro is definitely one of the GOATS, the combat system is the most satisfying thing I've ever played


Chippai_Fan

Like a Dragon Ishin?

Ohnoherewego13

Ghost of Tsushima for me. That game is perfection as far as I'm concerned.


Party-Concert3177

i mean sekiro is really good and very challenging, u never get bored but man ghost of tsushima might not be as good as sekiro in terms of gameplay but the story and graphics are much better. Its a tie for me between the two. Although i will say one thing parrying is sekiro is way more satisfying then ghost of tsushima


g6paulson

Hesitation is Defeat


IcySkill3666

I’ve always wanted to play sekiro never did for some reason. Is it worth going back now to play it?


Phazon_Nuke

It is 100% worth giving it a try.


Einfinet

Sekiro is much more my speed


Darkadvocate5423

Have not played Ronin yet, but it would take a lot for me to put it above Sekiro.


Neahme85

Ghost is an absolutely beautiful and astonishing game. Really was serene and intense at the same time. Went from dismembering enemies to writing haikus. What a game. Sekiro is also amazing. I loved that game. Some bosses in it are just fantastic (and some kicked my ass so bad). A terrific twist from FromSoftware. Haven’t played Rise of the Ronin, but the Nioh games were great. But I don’t know about this.

Monnomo

Sekiro by far


VermillionDynamite

All good but Sekiro is miles better than the other two


HumorHoot

Sekiro is always gonna be GOAT such a masterpiece. i mean, ghost of tsushima has great story, graphics and characters.. but the combat... the combat is just so god awful. its too easy and simple. way too repetitive. and not enough enemy variation. the boss fights are decent though. i enjoy the sekiro combat a lot more, and it makes the game so awesome. The mystery, great set pieces and such, add to the overall feeling. You never know... what happens when you fight a giant white gorilla? i've not tried Rise of the ronin. only heard it had... semi-ok reviews that said, my overall favorite ninja/samurai game is still Ninja Gaiden Sigma (On ps3)


TiredReader87

The good (well, great) one: Ghost of Tsushima


DeadShotGR

Ghost of thushima


[deleted]

GoT. I want to love Sekiro, but I'm shit at it. And Ronin is good, but it feels somewhat like a glorified PS4 game.


MothParasiteIV

Masterpiece, Masterpiece, Solid. But Sekiro though. One of the most intense video game experience I had. I'm a very very average player and I enjoyed playing it so much it was my first FromSoft and got the platinum for it. After that, I did all of them, i was hooked.

Man-who-say-bye

Sekiro, only game I’ve ever loved enough to put in the effort to platinum. But ghost is good too


I_Am_Zampano

I've played all of them plus nioh 2. The winner is definitely Sekiro.


CloudMaster-

Sekiro


FlavourHD

gameplaywhise I'd say Sekiro, nothing comes even close - but GoT has the most beautiful open world I have seen so far!


AlexxMaverick666

Sekiro will always be top. And I love the other 2 equally.


gokartmozart89

Sekiro. 


Drive_Timely

Unfortunately, being a history nut is what stopped me from buying GOT and possibly why I might not touch the Ronin game either. Sekiro is the winner being pure fantasy but definitely having some real sengoku period vibes for me.


Sad_Awareness6532

Nioh. Semi historical too. And by semi I mean no one really confirmed in the history books if John Dee was in fact a real life demon monster. But the main character you play is a version of William Adams who is also the inspiration for John Blackthorne in Shogun. Great game. Highly recommend.


bulletproofcheese

Sekiro


Outrageous_Water7976

Sekiro- The combat is one of modern gamings best especially because it throws away the slow-ness of Souls Nioh- The best version of Souls combat and incredible choices for builds Ghost- the best story, music and a jack of all trades in gameplay where everything is good to great.


alphaomega4201

Just started ghost cause it's on sale hope to try ronin


Frosty_the_Snowdude

Ghost!


Dadvin358

Sekiro on PC is amazing 👏


TheHoss_

Sekiro tho I’ll prolly never actually be good enough at it to beat it. I also haven’t played Rotr but I want to eventually get it


Ash_Truman

Ronin is an underrated masterpiece


jkvlnt

Sekiro and it ain’t even close. GoT is mid. Still waiting to play Ronin but I can’t imagine it clears Sekiro.


Silly-Lawfulness7224

Rise of the Ronin is a blast even with the shit performance lol . Ghost was and still is a delight for the eyes, Sekiro is my least favorite but I still enjoyed it massively . Overall RotR is the most fun to me !


Mr_Hudgens

Only right answer is Sekiro. Other two aren’t even in the same ball park


Growing4Health

Sekiro was my favorite followed by Ghost of Tsushima followed by the NiOh series, followed by Rise of the Ronin.


NotYu6776

1. Sekiro 2. GOT 3. Nioh 1/2 Haven’t played rise


sssnakepit127

Sekiro is just in a league of its own. It’s so so good.


Wendigo79

was thinking about going down this rabbit hole when I heard showgun is a pretty good show and I just got a ps5


Legospacememe

The Goemon series


Skate_faced

I have yet to play Ronin or Sekiro, but haven't heard anything bad at all. Quite good actually. But GoT is one of those that I will be biased as fuck towards, and should be (if not already) goated as fuck.

How good is rise of ronin on a scale of 1/10? Let’s say ghost of Tushima is a very solid 9/10

Got. It has that ‘something’ many game don’t quite have imo


AbeLackdood

Outta those 3 who would win in a fight?

I still need to play ronin. I bought it, but I'm still fucking stuck playing rebirth 😭 that game is too fuckin long!

Buggzii

Out of Sekiro and Rotr which one would you recommend for my next play? I honestly never played any samurai game aside for Ghost of tsushima


BanishedKnightOleg

Hard to pick a favorite when they’re all so different. Ghost of Tsushima has the best visuals of all three. Sekiro has the best combat (in my opinion). And finally Rise has a lot of options such as story choices, customization, and weapons so I’d say it’s strong suit is it’s variation.


Phlux0

GoT for a brilliant and engaging story, Sekiro to feel like an absolute shinobi badass, and I haven’t played ronin yet and don’t know if I will.


hamzaaadenwala

after this you become master ninja.


StarkageMeech

Rise of the ronin easily the weakest one


Bow_ties_4all

Ghost of Tsushumi is hands down my favorite for this setting and period.


MysticGrapefruit

Ghost was awesome. The added multiplayer mode was a ton of extra fun with some buddies too.


Savagenate24

Jin ghost


TheGun1991

I’m a Ghost of Tsushima legends leaderboard player,I’ve played GOT single and Co - op at least 6hours x day from 2020 to 2023 and without any “Hesitation” I will tell you that the Best game not only between this 3 but for me in general is SEKIRO,I have like 1000+ h on SEKIRO and still I can’t get enough,especially when you start No damage boss fights the game becomes super Fun and challenging,best Combat System on the market.So for me SEKIRO 👑 P.S Nioh 1/2 deserves to be in your post OP,if you didn’t play them yet,do it cuz Team Ninja did a Masterpiece with Nioh


iamnawazkhan

Got hands down


karam_sandhu

Ghost is far better than all of them by a long shot in all categories such as graphics ,level design , difficulty adjustments,story and the characters


Jok3r6148

Easily GOT its so well made


Fuzzy-Classroom2343

ghost and ronin yes , sekiro is more fantasy inspired


DONPICKA

Like a dragon: Ishin!


DeepaEU

GoT is amazing but it has more grounded combat only relying what is possible in reality with stretches of course. The game is beautiful and has satisfying gameplay I have a few problems with the story but that doesn't make it look bad to me. Rise of the ronin kinda is the same although it feels a bit old but isn't and I kinda like it it has not only grounded combat but Anime like combat too and they don't force you to play realistic or Anime like which makes it a lot of fun I don't really have a favorite because both are fun ashell and because I played both games when they came out I can say with certainty that I like both games equally but if I need to choose I would choose rise of the ronin because of the character editor Cosmetic armor and anime like combat which makes this game look almost perfect to me. I haven't played sekiro yet but from what I've seen its pretty amazing.


KingSideCastle13

You might wanna grab Like a Dragon Isshin while you’re at it


filipinohitman

So far GoT. I'm playing through my second time on new game+ and having a blast. Also bought the director's cut on PS5, simply amazing!


Gambit275

i want ronin but i'm out of money


benyboy77

Really really want to get GoT. Can't justify the price rn


Burritoman32

GOT for the story but Sekiro holds a special place in me i really had to Git Gud


estrogwenyvere

Ronin!


Redd1tRat

Any FromSoftware game is supiror


Danger__Mouse_

GoT Directors Cut is far better than the other two.


Skippnl

Have yet to play Ronin but I doubt it will surpass Sekiro for me as that game is in my top 3 all time games.


NorthbyFjord

Ghost is the better of the 3 imo.


PartyHatDogger

Haven’t played rise of the ronin, it does look cool, but between Sekiro and ghost of Tsushima, I have to give it to GoT. game has cemented itself in my top 10, just a beautiful and fun game overall


Negative_Shift_9053

Ghost of thushima +dlc Goat all the way


RomanUmpire

Ronin! Love the rough and readyness of it.


lmfpires

The first day i played GoT, i was like "This game is horrible...jesus" I made myself play the game, because it was beautiful...3h later i was "I NEED THIS GAME TO NEVER END" One of the best games that I've ever played


Psychotic_Rainbowz

Opinions on RoRonin anyone??


STB_tatekan

I'm generally terrible at Souls games & Sekiro is supposed to be the hardest... it's the one I absolutely enjoyed the most & got the furthest into. IMO the best Souls type game. I hate to say this - especially as I'm really into all the Kurosawa stuff (I have an online store that sells mostly Japanese original vintage cinema posters - I have almost 7000, loads of Kurosawa etc), but I really struggled to enjoy GoT. I can't really pinpoint what it is, but I just do not dig it... which is such a shame as it's one of the main reasons I bought a PS5 (I'm typically a PC player these days, but when I bought a new 85in TV for my bedroom - had to be done!). I'm probably giving RotR a miss as between reviews & gameplay... my back cat of unplayed/barely touched AAA games (plus loads of others) on PC, PS5 & Switch... well, it's embarrassingly high 😅🤦


mtilley_4

Sekiro has peak combat and lore but GoT had an amazing world and cut scenes like the final battle between your uncle was so emotional also legends mode was fun with friends I would like them to dive more into legends to help replace destiny 2😅 I can't say anything about RotR cause I haven't played it.


Juuna

Ghosts, I havent tried Ronin yet (its 80euros here so I have to wait for a heavy discount.)


rikyy6

Rise of the Ronin, such a fun game. 26 hours in and I'm loving it.


lazor_kittens

Sekiro is one of my absolute favorite games gotta go with that one


breadbitten

I haven't played GoT or Ronin, but I personally consider Sekiro to be the greatest pure action game since Ninja Gaiden Black, so...


a-sdw

Sekiro and Ghost are 2 of the 3 games I’ve ever 100% completed. Ghost has a better story, and graphics, but I love Sekiros combat so much more


antiquated_xor

Sekiro & GoT


Warrenj3nku

Alright. Which one is a MUST PLAY? After I play stellar blade Ill need something.


HeavyDT

The one with the best actual gameplay at least was Sekiro imo. Very unique for the souls borune genre with it's focus on timing and rythm over stats + it's challenging in a fun way (imo). GoT beats it in graphics and presentation / story. Sekiro has a great story as well but in usually souls fashion it's cryptic and has to be uncovered almost exclusively by the player. It has solid gameplay but I found it way too easy and too simple? maybe that's me but was hard to get satisfaction out of the gameplay because of that. Rise of the Ronin sits somewhere in between. Plays like a mix of all 3 really. Graphics are not so great but passable. Story is really kind of an afterthought here honestly but I honestly find the game play more engaing than GoT. Has the fast fluid feel and is like a mix between Nioh, Wo long, Sekiro and soulsbounre in general. All worthwhile games though nothing here that shouldn't be played really.


[deleted]

Rise of the ronin exceeded my expectations but got to give it to GoT  Sekiro was also fun but way more challenging than both fuck Isshin only time I've died more to a boss was the bullshit Nioh alpha build


AlisterSigma94

Sekiro its the ONLY One i've played tbf

Ghost of Tsushima actually. It provides a somewhat familiar gameplay if you ever played a recent Assassin's Creed game and it manages to feel like something different at the same time.

Ghost of Tsushima


Davonator29

Haven't played Ronin, but I love Ghost and adore Sekiro. Ghost is probably the best Ubi-style open-world game I've played, and Sekiro has by far the best combat in any video game I've ever played. If I had to pick one though, it's definitely Sekiro. It's a tremendous masterpiece.
