Literally the best boss in video games is in Bloodborne (Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower), so your argument is invalid.

Best boss in videogames is Pontiff.



Three very different games:

1) bloodborne is like a faster, more aggressive souls game which means it will have better level design, lore, world building and story telling than the other games.

2) Nioh is far more technical when it comes to combat, has some level design elements, deeper rpj elements and is more combat focused.

3) NG is more reflex orientated combat, with a more linear level design that has a mix of old skool with new skool game design. Fight through linear stages then face a boss.

All three games can be appreciated for their own identity, and each has its own identity, although they may borrow elements of each other.

I'm just glad I got to enjoy all three of them.

Finally a sensible and truthful response in this post. 



Don't think you can get very far in Bloodborne if you approach it as a hack n slash. You are supposed to learn how the enemies attack and moves, finding out when to you should attack or get out of the way.

I found Bloodborne to be really disappointing.  It seems like it is trying to be an action game using Dark Souls' mechanics.  Dark Souls' is an awesome RPG, but a terrible pure action game.  Then take all of the choices and freedom away from Dark Souls and you get Bloodborne.

Ninja Gaiden really is an action game.  Never played Nioh.  But if I wanted an action game, then Ninja Gaiden would be a better option.

So, like a hack n' slash  

(I know the game plays very different)



Can't really compare Bloodborne to Ninja Gaiden, my man. Nioh, sure, but not Ninja Gaiden.

Nioh is the better game, I agree. More content, more depth, more replay value... But, I must say, Nioh probably wouldn't exist in it's current state without the Soulsborne games. There's a heavy, heavy influence there. It borrowed so much from them; the stamina system, recollecting souls, certain gameplay mechanics...



Threads like this are why video games lead to violence.



Nintendo is selling their IPs to Microsoft and this is true because:

Well, i'm apparently nearing the last boss in Bloodbourne, and to be frank, its been a major let down, slow controls/gameplay, crappy online functions, bosses that are more tedious than technical, i could go on all day.....  the setting and graphics are top notch no doubt, but lets be real here, the gameplay is tiresome and dull, its one thing having a hard boss that you can beat with skill, and its another thing beating one with a lot of long term tedious will..... Nioh and Ninja Gaiden 1 & 2 destroy this shallow wannabe hack 'n' shash game. END OF...!!!!!

What boss clapped you so hard you had to make this? lol
