Second beta huh...interesting.

Hopefully they fixed the issues like gear/weapon durability lol

They released notes a few weeks back saying they were going to fix and change a lot of things - including weapon and gear durability.

yea i read that.

Nevermind my edited previous post then. lol

At least is there to other people who might not know the changes and fixes Team Ninja mentioned.

Yup!

Hopefully we dont need Nioh Sigma :P

Or Nioh Razor's Edge.

I saw news that they're going to make it way easier than the alpha version, I really hope they don't do it too hard…

I didn't mind the strict stamina management and i didn't think it was so hard that they needed to make it easier but hopefully the changes will be for the better.

Oh my god, another demo! I can't wait to experience the game after all the tweaks they announced thanks to the Nioh Alpha Demo survey results.

While i did not like the previous demo at all. I'll give the second one a go to see if they've changed things enough for me to get into it.
