If I recall ACG you build your movset to what stance you will switch into, if the weapon has that option, say an square to triangle will lead you to a high stance when you do a switchattack and lower stance for triangle to square and I think there was some chaining involved between the weapons moveset editor that made it more smooth and controled. I guess it could just be do your stance switch attack then swap wp or something, hopefully it's some usefull info in this, been a fair while. ☻

Nioh 1 was such a great experience in itself, and the devs just kept working on it, updating it with free content and making REALLY good DLC campaigns that continue the game with new level caps, monsters and weapons. Support Nioh 2, if not now, then when it eventually becomes the best through dev support.

I wish the game kinda scaled a little more lenient. I understand it’s a challenging game and I bought it knowing that, but I’m super new to Nioh and can’t even get passed the 1st big guy, that won’t stop me from playing but it really sucks when you’ve died 50 times and can’t really see what the game has to offer because your new to these kind of games in general, the overall problem solver is get better, but as a brand new player it’s a lot easier said then done and if I wasn’t a patient gamer I’d probably feel cheated

Glad you enjoyed it. Actually, you prob didn't give up on it because of being a latecomer. Casuals used to braindead gameplay or interactive movies gave this game bad reviews all the time because "spending 2-3 hours in the first level dying over and over isn't fun". Legit saw this excuse a bunch. One of them even mentioned the game doesn't really explain gameplay... when there's like a million tutorials at the start (which you can then view at will in start menu anyways)

PRO TIP - If you go to the options menu you can turn off item pickup under a certain rarity. You can choose the rarity as well (basically set it to blue or purple so that the option doesn't even show up to pick up anything lower in rarity, for instance). This basically FIXES inventory management, and lowers the constant flow of loot you don't want or need.

That's because it's a character action game. It belongs more with the likes of Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, and most obviously Ninja Gaiden, more than standard Souls-likes. Nioh is to the above as Darksiders 3 is to the rest of the Darksiders games. It's the same as the above but done more like souls.

For a long time Nioh was a great comfort game for me. In between major launch titles or if there simply was nothing out that I particularly wanted to play I would throw in Nioh and it always held me down and in over 100+ hours of gameplay I always had something to do. So with that being said I look forward to the sequel coming out.

I loved the first game and can't wait to get sucked into the sequel. Sounds amazing! Regarding the camera issues, I'm not too surprised. The first game had some camera problems too. From Software's games tend to have some annoying camera problems as well. Something about the genre. These games can be hard enough without having to fight the camera mini boss while fighting the main bosses. Hopefully, it'll get addressed in a future patch in Nioh 2's case.

@Hoopla10 4 жыл бұрын

Yep, completely agree, especially about the lack of marketing. They have a good release window before RE3 and the FF7Remake so they really should be (or should have been) making the most of it. After that there's some massive releases and Nioh 2 will be forgotten.

@MrSchnitzel19 4 жыл бұрын

I think the big problem was that it got incredibly repetitve fast because of both the level and enemy design. The thing that made DS, BB and Sekiro levels isntersting was that you were part of a connected world, pushing on. In nioh you just grinded the same levels 5 times wiht minor changes. If you wanted a specific items you'd grind it 20 times instead. Makes it feel bland and boring imo.

There is something that ages well with every great game. This game has perhaps the best combat system ever created in terms of arcade, difficult, satisfying, melee combat. Alongside Devil May Cry. The level design, bosses, customization, and story in this game compared to Nioh 1 is such an improvement. One of the best games of 2019, perhaps the decade. I think this is as close anyone has gotten to being a souls killer.

Great review. Love the FightinCowboy shout out. He has gotten me through the entire Dark Souls series.

R3 is very handy in this game. I lock on and off enemy's all the time. Pressing R3 centers or releases the camera at the same time. I think the camera angle's are awesome. Other than that, Great vid. Subbed

I've heard similar concerns about the controls for switching stances -- in the first Nioh, there was an ability that allowed you to Ki Pulse AS you switched to a different stance. Recognizing this allowed the controls to "click" for me in the first one. And if you're not Ki Pulsing in Nioh, I don't know how you're managing to survive in this game haha.

Thanks for the review. I appreciate you taking the time to be so detailed in your approach and I’m excited to get into the game. At the risk of sounding like other commenters, Kusarigama is said “Ku-sa-ree-ga-ma.” Kusari refers to a chain or a weighted chain. Gama is the same word as Kama, the harvesting tool turned weapon that is common to Kobudo styles and some Japanese Bugei. But because Japanese grammar we have to say it as “gama.” Most romanized Japanese words are spelled as phonetically as possible, but there are some challenging rules that can trip us up as we read them. Much respect to you and I look forward to the full review.

I’m kind of on the same boat my dudes. I’m currently recovering from a surgery basically not able to move outside my room. Started playing Bloodborne for the first time (got it from Ps plus) and holy hell. Yeah, the challenge in these games can be rewarding and fun, but sometimes it just feels SO TEDIOUS; especially when the story is essentially non existent and you don’t really know WHY your in game projection (your protagonist) is going through so much shit. That is, of course, unless you decide to spend a couple extra hours (at least) to dive into the lore of the game, which also ruins the surprise factor because you are (usually) spoiled. Sorry for the rant, I’m just currently conflicted as to whether I should finish BB or not because of its chore-like structure.

Oh and btw Bloodborne is my first proper souls game. I played Nioh a few years ago but I don’t think it counts. I did quite like it at that time though (Nioh).
