Nioh 2 is one of the best games to come out that past 5 -10 years. It’s kinda annoying how underrated and overlooked this game is. Pure masterpiece been playing it SINCE THE BETA. It’s always fun

I just picked it up during the holiday sale, and OMG this is such a phenomenal game. It's dark soul + diablo in a samurai era, what more can you ask for.

Just now finding this game! Will start playing it for the 1st time TODAY. Very excited due to all the excellent reviews and game play video I've seen so far... including this one!

Hope you continue to make regular content again! Your reviews are my go to for new games to play :) Keep it up!

I got this game the first day it came out during the covid-19 lockdown and I swear you just had to be there. If you know you know.

It’s truly a masterpiece. I’ve sunk thousands of hours into it since day 1 release and I still find myself replaying it and trying different builds. The tension you mentioned, loot system, and just overall fluidity of combat are top tier and I love every second of it. 10/10

Your videos are incredible, I discovered you on a Reddit post about Slay the Spire without even realizing that i’m about to watch some of the best videos on KZfaq. You’ve done something I could never pull off, awesome job!

Dude. Thank you for making this video. I was planning to finally make something like this to try and help spread the joy (tension/elation) further. But I could not find better words than you have. So here flippin' here!

I quit this game and even uninstalled this game twice…then I came back and clocked in more hours then ever and now it’s a drug.

Great review! It perfectly sums up with I love Nioh 2 so much. It's damn hard, to the extent that I bounced off it twice before it stuck, but once you get into it it's a true pleasure to play.

My buddy asked if I wanted to do a playthrough 2 days ago. I had no idea what the game was like and I just bought it on a whim. Safe to say, this game isn't going to be put down for a long time.

Great review. Just played Nioh 1 and 2 back to back. Super Addictive

Glad you are back!

Great video’s! Your Channel deserves more views..

I quit this game back in 2020 but i finally picked it up again. Don’t regret it, might be one of my favorite games

Why don't more people play this damn thing? It's an amazing game.

Yup. Can't stop playing. Even with just one weapon you can change your build with all elemental as well.

Seriously one of the best or possibly the best combat game I’ve ever played. They put so much effort into this game for all the different weapons and moves. It’s insane how vast it is compaired to other games where it’s limited on moves and weapon abilities. This game has so much going on at times I can’t remember what to be using or my move set haha

Seeing as this is available on ps plus I will pick it up. I'm a Soulsbourne vet but I've never played the Nioh series, so I'm looking forward to jumping in.

Great vid. Consider lowering music volume when speaking.

You can play with any weapon and you game style changes, yet it feels fluid and not enforced, I love Nioh

Ok, I'm sold. Gonna pick it up asap.

Nioh 2 is by far the game I like the most. Top 1 of my life, 1500h and still playing along other games.

Amazing content!

Excellent review. Underrsted channel

I love this game so much. I've noticed I have good days and bad days with it though. Some days I breeze through even the nastiest content pretty easily. Other day's I get killed by monke lol. It's great fun either way, though off days get pretty frustrating. The combat is just so damn satisfying!

Best review I’ve ever seen🙌🏼

lesgoo, new video

Hands down was my favorite game of 2020, I'm working with a Heart/Skill/Melee/Active Skill build, level 740

just got it couple days ago for 10 bucks plus free ps5 upgrade absolute steal, currently in training mode sharpening up my skills 🔥

Great review. Unfortunately I think this game is just too hard and complicated for most people to enjoy. I haven't managed to get any of my friends to stick with the game for more than a week. It requires so much skill and knowledge from its players and people just aren't willing to put in that much time and go through that much suffering. I love it to death, of course. I struggle to think of a game that made me so obsessed in the past few years as Nioh 2 did.

Great review!

Started last month with no knowledge of this game, and now I'm currently in dream of the wise Also me: *died to a Gaki on my first try*

So Nioh 2 is like a souls game but with "Oops, all bosses!" vibes. You've convinced me.

You haven't even mentioned the deeper mechanics beside the gigantic talent trees...or the real endgame in NG+++++ Way of the Nioh^^Yes it's an absolute masterpiece!

I have plowed through so many souls games this year. I had never played them before. Elden ring, bloodborne, ds3 and this are all so superb. My favorite is whichever I’m playing at that moment. I believe nioh 2 has the most satisfying combat

Played 2 first, and then I played 1. I like 1 more, it’s a fun play through, and every npc isn’t a mini boss. I’m 190/60 and it’s like work playing the game, but in 1 it’s relaxing to just play the story.

Very in-depth review. Thanks! I’m almost finished with Nioh, and I’m looking forward to sucking in Nioh 2.

Hardcore nioh 2 players can only understand how hard nioh 2 is after beating the depths floor 30. Even with multiplayer the scale goes up even harder. Getting 1 shot in the depths is very sad.

So like, I know I've already commented on this video but I just want to say one more time; thank you; this is *exactly* how I feel.

probably my favorite game. the combat mechanics are just too good.

I remember when I first started Nioh 1. Game was brutal as fuck coming off dark souls. I actually quit it for a while to play dark souls and bloodborne, so I could level up as a player then rechallenge Nioh. I actually did manage to beat Nioh and was in love with it then 2 happened... Maybe this is the best game of all time. Problem with Nioh is it makes souls /elden ring playthrough extremely easy, cause you had to master all these combos and movement options you just don't have in a souls game or need cause of the extremely forgiving s on dodge rolls.enemies also moved at you much slower and in much more predictable manners in elden ring and so on, it felt like you were playing FFXV in comparison to Nioh.

I 100% both nioh games and I gotta say I’m ready for a nioh 3 if it happens

nioh 2 (and nioh) has the title of being the best game i have ever played. I hadnt even played souls but i fell in love with nioh 2. Then i played ds3 ds2 and sekiro. And yes theyre all masterpieces, but i dont think i could ever say that i liked any of them more than nioh 2. sekiro is very close, but I desperately miss builds. DS3 is different but lacks the visual style and complexity that I love so much. DS2 is a slog, but being so unapolagetically slow makes it kinda its own thing in a way and I cherish it for that. But in ds2 I have been stuck on a boss for so long that I dont have a full picture of it. TLDR: Nioh 2 is great, if you havent played it you need to, if you havent played it in a while boot it up because i guarantee you still have plenty of content to play and plenty of time to spend before eldenring. (i think elden ring might tie for my favorite based on what ive seen)

122 hours of play only for first run. Lost in it. Amazing

After playing a bunch of souls games, I was looking for another soulslike. But for some reasons, I avoided Nioh for a long time. Maybe it was the cartoon-like design, it made me think the combat is more like Devil May Cry where you have to do a lot of combos. Finally got to try it when it became available for PS+ subscribers, and am loving it. It scratches that souls itch and more. Still need to get used to the Ki mechanic and I'm sure when I get that locked down, I'll love it even more.

Playing through Nioh 2 again after not playing it since I finished the DLCs on their release, it's great, but Nioh 1 is my favourite by quite a fair bit.

One of the best game I ve ever played.. Masterpiece..

Team Ninja’s Nioh, especially Nioh 2, curb stomps and Inzuna drops FromSoft’s Elden Ring and Sekiro. Nioh 2 may have its fair share of flaws but personally the pros significantly outweigh the cons, Nioh definitely possesses one of the most addicting combat systems I’ve ever touched. Team Ninja deserves a lot more recognition for Nioh. Unfortunately Nioh 3 isn’t going to be revealed anytime soon so I hope their upcoming spiritual successor to Nioh, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, is successful and gives Team Ninja the attention grabbing spotlight.

Quite the game then came back to beat it. Most underrated souls like IMO. Combat, skills, leveling system, gear crafting system, and bosses are all awesome. Only thing I hate are the level designs

*spec dexterity *acquire ninjutsu *gear supports poison accumulation and ninjutsu strength profit

0:04 this is the only way to describe nioh in general lol

for real, love this game

what a good review!

1st souls game I had is the nioh game then nioh2 so far I’m cheesing all souls game because of Nioh

this game is masterpiece without a doubt and it also has awesome lore awesome fights and like awesome everything

Is this a boss fight simulator or like souls having regular enemies?

Ninja Gaiden Souls

Is the weapon upgrade and infusion as crappy as nioh1? Spent hours into savescum in order to save stones

I love Nioh 2. Pity it's not as popular as the games it's used for inspiration. But man, if it's one of the best games I've ever played.

5:13 dude, you're playing with death himself.

Once you know what the game wants from you, and how to succeed... It's actually much easier than a lot of other Souls games I've played since. Now that could be because Nioh 1 was my entry into the Soulslike genre... But grinding this game's bones comes down to using the immense set of tools, with an (over)importance of gear, properly using and switching between stances, properly Ki-pulsing, and mastering the Yokai shift counter. That's all easier said than done... But it's very doable from almost anyone. But once you get that down, and you start delving into Omnyo magic and Ninjutsu tools, you can make short work of Nioh 2. There is just a lot of freedom regarding how you approach and play the game, and it's not nearly as rigid and mechanical in its approach and demands as From Soft games and most other Soulslikes. I say all of that to say... It's not that hard if you don't play it like other Soulslikes and take FULL advantage of, and engage with all of the systems the game has in place. But it does suck that a big portion of "maximizing your potential" is done via the endless gear grind and spending lots of time in about 2 dozen different menus. At a certain point you're not even getting mechanically better... You've just mastered the loot-loop and the time intensive, menu-based upgrade system...

I highly recommend the completed edition for nioh 2 and 1 😌and nioh 2 is a great game I’ve played it multiple times currently on the hardest ng+ difficultie

I Love a game like this, but I wish some of the fighting Mechanics worked Automatically, it gets old Memorizing 400 different Combos to use in Combat!!

Is it worth playing if i completed the game in 2020? Completed dream of the nioh ofcourse, got into the depths and stopped after some floors, didnt like that you can skip the entire dlc before going into the depths, that was a huge mistake of TN imo

I've only loved this game, not had a hate moment yet!

I love this game

I agree nioh 2 is a masterpiece the combat is intricate and imo not matched by other soulslike games

A masterpiece of a game. Too complicated for the masses to enjoy it. Let them play Elden.

I don't know...I kind of like Dark Souls and now I tried Elden Ring and it's ok I guess but I don't know if I can really say I'm a fan. This looks so good to me but I know it's going to be souls-like. I think of Ninja Gaiden when I hear Team Ninja and I loved NG1 and 2, I loved them to death but I just don't know if I should try this game. I'm afraid I'll waste my money like I did with Elden Ring. I played it for 3,4 hours and realized I don't have time for this ...

I completed nioh 1 and am currently playing nioh2. The only thing that bothers me a little is the repetition of maps.

Can anyone who played Sekiro comment on whether or not this has a similar level of satisfaction when it comes to parry/counter mechanics? Sekiro is my favorite game of all time, my only wish was that it had more RPG elements and well... Nioh looks like exactly what I'm looking for

So it’s basically if bloodborne was set place in Japan

After 2000 plus hours there are still days when I feel like starting a new game.. But the grind to get to level 750 again is too much.. Love this game. Top 5 of all time..

I'm here because of the ps+ november 2022 games and my god I'm enjoying the F out of this game even if it's beating the shit out of me. Souls-like is my favorite genre, I guess incorporating a more arcade-y gameplay into the formula makes it even more enjoyable.

Just saying, unless they took stances out this tuber isn't using any of the other two stances on the weapons.

better get it on discount while i can.

Nioh 2 came in at my #1 for the entire PS4 generation, Bloodborne being a close 2nd. I’m a die hard Souls player since Demon’s and this game has me hooked, Elden Ring being the only game able to pry me away from it. Just a week ago I decided to check my playtime and was 20 minutes away from logging exactly 600 hours and I’m still only half way through DotW. Yes I know, I haven’t even reached the underworld yet. I didn’t say I was a professional Souls player, just a diehard.

Such a good game. Got 400 hours into it and I still enjoy every second of it.

ya que no habia reseñas en español xd

Don't mind me, I haven't even watched the video yet. I'm just here to slurp up all the Nioh 2 love.

nice breakdown

I've had this game for almost 2 years and I still haven't beat it yet it so hard. I'm on a boss battle and it's not going good.

Just finished Elden ring and picked this up and it’s fantastic don’t be put off by people saying it’s too hard plenty of chance to build your character up to make the game very easy

The switchglaive was op Speed(cyclone move ) , range , damage and it scale with magic (the most broken thing in Nioh2)

How are you guys just now realizing this lol

Goat game

We need more medieval-based combat games. Let all the martial arts dorks move to Asia.

Been saying this for a time, dont play nioh with the minset of a soulslike, more like a high risk Devil may cry. The combos you can archive are insane, The deeper tech like stance pre shifting a literal new way to play. Give you a tip right away, you can find soul cores with yokai ability ki pulse. They already function as animation cancel, with this, you even get ki back. Making your gameplay that much faster

Why don't more people play it? Because it is just way too difficult for average player. The mechanics are punishing, even regular mobs are able to hand you your ass on a platter. Learning curve is steep and there are just way too many things to worry about when it is your first time picking up the game. Not everyone has the skill or the patience or much more often the time to struggle for 2-3 hours and end up going absolutely nowhere many a time. This category of game is designed for a very specific kind of player who is just much much more serious about the game mechanics and finds meaning in the masochistic level of suffering the souls genre very often inflicts on you. Many players just hate the feeling of utter frustration (even though the feeling of reward is equally strong) that originates from these games all too often. They are many a time looking for a much more relaxing, casual, fun inducing, moderately rewarding activity that they can indulge in after a long day of work for a short while before they head back to other stresses of their life. Souls games can just never be that and all avid fans know it. It's like how some people really love heating insanely spicy food that just flat out feels like tasting death to most people. Insanely spicy as in ghost pepper level spicy can never ever have mass appeal. That's just how niche it is. Just look at completion stats on the vast elden ring player base and that is the most accessible and one of the easiest one of all souls like games.

I'm slowly starting to understand how to fight tengen... god this one guy alone killed me like 100 times. I love the game

I played nioh 2 almost 70 hours Just for one playthrough without dlcs. It has the best Combat system of any Games i played. Better than from Software... BUT I dislike that the loot has Zero Impact on my build. What am i doing wrong? Is the difficulty too Low?

It's the best Diablo game ever made, IMHO. It's exactly how I wanted the next evolution of Diablo to be. Shame that the actual Diablo IV looks so uninspired and just to be there because they figured out that they can make a service-based Diablo game (which is what Diablo IV will be).

What frustrated me about this game the most(other than giant health bars of almost every one who isn't you) is how the game breaks it's rules even harder when going against human bosses, a human like myself shouldn't need 40 hits to kill when he's one shoting you ,I wish they handled that with a bit more care like mutating them or something to atleast make them seem believable

I dunno man. At some point you might wanna try a stance other than mid...

I stared Nioh 2 after finishing Nioh 1….I just want to give up. Find 2 really hard and died 8 times first boss only

if u want to get annihilated, try to play nioh 2 counting on darksouls or sekiro difficulty level. youll make execuses about your quit, on your way out within less than 2 to 3 hours of playing the game. you just dont die here ull get punished in this game like a mental attack. (trust me ng++++ depths of the underworld is fully mental).

850 h in . just started a new run. edit: the beginning is probably to hard. i still struggle with the 2 and 3 boss. you just don't have the damage . probably why its not more popular. even after all my h Enenra is hard. and just thinking about that boar fellow...

I did quit this game at first. when I First got it and tried it, I couldnt figure it out. but now I am really getting the hang of it, and I am loving the tonfas playstyle. its a really nice change of pace from Elden Ring, which is a lot more aggressive than souls but nowhere near this aggressive.

If Nioh 1 and 2 ever make their way to the switch (highly unlikely), I’ll double dip. I love those games.
