    Say what you will about some of these ancillary modes not being included in Nioh as a baseline, but I've gotten more out of the game than almost anything released this year. To see Team Ninja add to it, a project that was already a hardcore action game that mostly does its own thing while building on its predecessors, has restored my faith in them as a developer. I can't wait to see what they're up to next.

    Despite having its fair share of flaws, Team Ninja's Nioh is one of the highlights of the Souls-like subgenre. In fact, it may very well be the best of the bunch, if you don't include From Software's titles in the equation.

    La Fine del Massacro è il degno erede dei due precedenti DLC di NiOh e insieme, ora che il viaggio si è concluso, vanno a formare una vera e propria espansione in grado di regalare decine di ore di puro divertimento. Ad oggi non esiste nessun action RPG considerabile souls-like con una mole di contenuti così ampia. Persistono chiaramente i soliti problemi di bilanciamento nella difficoltà, dettati da scelte di design più votate alla spettacolarità ed al collezionismo che alla funzionalità. Ciò non cambia che NiOh, in vista anche della sua versione definitiva e omnicomprensiva in arrivo anche su PC tra circa un mese, è destinato a lasciare un segno nel panorama videoludico dei prossimi anni e nella carriera di un team che, tra alti e bassi, è sempre riuscito a rialzarsi e tirare fuori il coniglio dal cilindro, anche con un progetto travagliato e più che decennale come questo.

    Nioh Bloodshed’s End mag dan wel niet een revolutie binnen de franchise zijn, spelers gaan zich er desalniettemin prima mee vermaken. Naast een feest van herkenning zijn er gelukkig ook nieuwe uitdagingen in de vorm van The Abyss en geweldige bossfights. Al met al is het een solide conclusie van wat Nioh precies voor moet stellen. Zowel gameplay als verhaalgewijs is dit het einde dat de (eerste) Nioh verdiend.

    Al met al doet Bloodshed’s End - net als de eerdere twee episodes - weinig om de ervaring van het hoofdspel op te schudden of te versterken. Dit maakt het lastig om de season pass als geheel aan te raden. Voor wie echt niet genoeg van Nioh krijgt, is het natuurlijk een prima deal en Bloodshed’s End is een sterke afsluiter. De nieuwe levels en vijanden zijn tof, en de abyss biedt een gave nieuwe manier om je William te trainen, mocht je toch aan de de zoveelste extra moeilijkheidsgraad willen beginnen.
