My tip. Play with your oldest/shittiest controller, so you don’t care when you break it.

Start working out fellas, those testosterone defficiency are making you lose your cool. I haven’t had any urges, or even a slightest hint to get mad, even though i had to repeat the exact same boss a dozen times.
Will you plat this game? Rob: "Nioh chance!"
One thing you forgot to mention about the stances: Mid is not just a compromise between Low and High (it is in regards to stamina consumption) but it has reduced Ki damage on block. So if you need to block a lot, Mid is the stance to go...
Thanks for the tips Nath! Your previous videos of NiOh helped me get through the Defiled Mountain level with the Tengu. Please do a mini series of you streaming this game and also getting the platinum. I couldnt get the platinum last time, but for the sequel I reckon I could do it.
Rob you and Nath should do a let's play of Nioh 2! Would be awesome to watch

神影Kamikage i was soo jealous to see most of my nioh 1 friends already on nioh 2 whereas i have to wait 20 more hours for it to be available Edit : idk y there is the time thing. Like ive preordered, ive paid, ive got it downloaded, others are playing from different regions then y cant i 🤦🏻♂️
As an additional point: Never let your equip load change to yellow or red, as that will make you too slow. And in addition to this, it's worth to spend a few points in Strength to raise your equip load, to wear better armour.

Thank you! 🙏😬
This is a really helpful video, thanks! :)
Mid stance is also the best for guarding, high stance is better for guard breaking. Amrita is for leveling up, gold is the currency.
I was the same way. I so wanted to play and love Nioh 1 and I played the beta and my friend and I played the game and I played Bloodborne and dark souls so I knew how challenging it would be. I adjusted easy to combat and leveling my character but where I got confused and eventually stopped playing was because I just never got the hang of all the other upgrade trees and skills. I didn’t know how to get points for some and others just seemed really complicated and I felt like I was just missing a big part of the game by not understanding it and eventually just stopped playing and played other games. I still watched people play Nioh and saw some builds but I didn’t go back and play it. I’m hoping this time around with Nioh 2 I’ll finally be able to get a hang of it and understand it well. People have told me that the skill tree is easier to understand in Nioh 2 compared to one. I was playing it before work but didn’t get far enough yet to know if I’ll actually understand everything this time around. I love the game though. I even love the first game. It wasn’t the games fault I couldn’t grasp parts of it. The lore and story is great. The game does look a little more colorful this time around from what I’ve seen. I got my fingers crossed though.
Rob sounded sooooo ready to take on Nioh 2 at the end of the video!
8:25 is a bit poor advice. Dismantle your gear, especially purples, you will need items from these later.

In the beginning I agree with the video. You'll find new gear all the time. You won't get Blacksmith until after a couple of missons anyway and when you get it you won't use it as often in the beginning of the game since you'll find better gear all the time. That said offering is good for getting Divine rice. You can hand this in for bombs, shurikens and magic scrolls. Using these items will give you the first skillpoints in magic and ninjitsu. When you have the first skillspoints use them for consumable skills like shurikens and scrolls you can ready at the shrine that you use in turn to gain more skillpoints with a snowball effect.
I CANT WAIT! So many systems, character creator looks awesome
This video was very helpful! I'm picking this game up for sure😁👍
This game is so deep and detailed. There is just so much to the game, considering it is also an awesome action adventure it's quite impressive how deep the rpg systems go. By RPG I don't really mean role playing as much as stats and equips and game mechanic systems.
Can’t wait for this, told myself I have to get the platinum on the first game before I can justify buying this but I downloaded it again and I’ve completely forgotten how to play it 😂 finishing the platinum for The Surge 2 atm but might just have to buy this to tide me over until the FF VII remake is finally out 🔥
Got the Deluxe Edition coming Thursday night. I'm looking hard at that Swiitchglaive.. Thanks for the tips Nath, you helped me through Sekiro.

Thanks for the vid, it convinced me to buy it haha!
Great guide!
Ninjitsu absolutely DESTROYED in the last chance demo. My go to recipe for success is light armor, Kusa as main weapon with katana as my secondary while I put all my other points mainly in to dexterity, heart, magic and spirit.

How I imagine what these games are like (Nioh, Bloodborne, Sekiro), is that every single enemy you fight is like a Valkyrie on God of War. I'm very tempted by Nioh or Sekiro but not sure if I can take the punishment.

Sekiro and Bloodborne are excellent, both feel like refreshing and refining Souls formula and taking it to new level. Nioh i didnt like at all, it felt like a mediocre copy of souls without atmosphere and design story telling, made with low resources (a lot of reused stuff like missions of previous levels), that desperately tried to feel different and took some elements from other games (Diablo-like loot for example). In the end it didnt mix well imo, it felt like these elements were tacked on and annoying.

@@ReadyAimFire_ ah, thats a shame, thanks for the heads up, I really like the look of Sekiro and Bloodborne so maybe I'll try those instead of Nioh, but then again I have them from ps plus so maybe I will take the plunge and give it a try if I'm feeling it!
I took a break forgot about nioh 2 coming out this past week but here i am finally lv 93 on my first playthrough in the first one
Souls Players: Soul games are the most difficult games ever made. Nioh players: Hold my Tanuki.
thank you
PlayStation Access has become my favourite KZread Channel. I also downloaded the app on the PS4. Great work guys. 👍
In nioh 1 ki pulse dispelled yokai realms, probably still does in nioh 2.It's harder to pull off in yokai realm but very useful.
Man I miss Nath. I would've seriously enjoyed a video like this about the upcoming Wo Long from Team Ninja.
15:28 This is only if you have the BRUTE yokai spirit guardian. You have to hit them while red. For FERAL Yokai SG, you have to avoid their attack, and for the PHANTOM SG you have to COUNTER their attack. Also a neat extra is that if you Burst Counter them and they are weak right after...you can press triangle and your yokai will deal massive damage instead of your human form...I don't exactly know the specifics, but i remember burst countering and pressing triangle and instead of changing back, my yokai then followed up with an extra attack. But they have to no stamina, and in yokais case, exhausted...
I'm so excited to play this ! I just gotta find a way to stop playing Monster hunter world haha
Hopefully the weapons scaling with attributes doesn't push you towards specific builds for effective combat, my favorite thing about the first was I loved all the weapons (most games I skew towards only a select few), and found each useful for different scenarios, and always kept the best of each type on my person, switching regularly.
Rob, don’t be discouraged. I’m a long-time fan of turn-based rpgs, but wanted to play souls games. It was a huge hill to climb, but it’s doable. I never got great, but good enough to find the gameplay rewarding. 🤘
Idk about high stance not being needed. I use the switch Glaive and almost solely use high stance and I’m doing fine.
this the pefect game for your if you like dark souls and Sekiro, you can see so many connections between these game while Nosh2 has its signature play style. I would say, Nioh2 is similarly difficult as Sekiro, but it provides your many means/techniques to overcome difficulties if you find hard timing fighting a boss.
I mostly use the High stance ^^
range weapons are a core build kunai builds are amazing
This , Ghost of Tsushima and Elden Ring ohh boii am i excited.
It comes out tonight right?
As a darksouls bloodborn mhw sekiro veteran this game is exciting always looking for a challenge so far monsterhunter world takes the hardest game if u solo fatalis with a charge blade
Question. how can I clear out my Item box and move things to the Storehouse? all my Smithing Materials are in my Item box and I think they are making me heavy. my Equipment weight says 32.1 / 35.4 and below that it says (90.6%) and my Agility is C. and I have on all light armor. I am so confused about how this works. is this normal?
My main question.. does nioh 2 have the same weapon meta? Are the kusurigama, Odachi, and katana still really badass?
Nath talking about the skill screen... Should play a Final Fantasy game ^^
I just almost always stay in high stance. If you want to remove a bit of complexity it IS totally possible to not be switching stances.
I got the platinum for Nioh (inspired by Nathan) and this game looks much more accessible for new players. I don't recommend going for Nioh 1's plat, the grind is real and you'll spend half your time trying to make requests to the blacksmith..
Honestly tried the demo (which i didn't manage to finish.... ) but i honestly loved it
I hold the platinum in the first and will damn sure get it for 2
This game is so hard but I play it to learn how and it's fun
Got it for PS Plus this month & after just beating DS on Switch I thought it would be manageable, but the neon bright colors during combat don't help.
Skill trees look like the sphere grid from ffx 👍🏻
I’d like to see a video for access where Rob actually beats a game, lol I don’t think I’ve seen him do that, maybe MGS or Final Fantasy
One does not simply "forget" how to play nioh
Kusurigama high stance melts health bars. Easily the easiest high stance weapon to clear the game even in ng+.
All these game releases in such a short timeframe... *Wallet has been freed from this mortal coil*
I gave up after the first boss, then I realised that was the first mission nearly 3 hours I’ve spent on the first mission cannot beat the boss 😭😭😭😭 how in earth did I complete the first game :/

This game seems like it has A LOT of stuff going on and it’s almost overwhelming! I’m more confused now than ever. Just the core gameplay seems difficult. I have beaten Demon Souls and The Dark Souls series but this not only looks harder than those but also has a huge learning curve. Seriously, I’m already too intimidated to try this game and this video is made as a beginners guide to help you survive the game. I might give this a try because it looks incredible but I’m not going to lie I am super confused and intimidated by the core mechanics alone not to mention the other 20 some things you have to do to master the game!

The game is trial and error but once you find what’s best for you, then it will be easier. I admit I keep one stance, mostly heavy attack, and dodge. I platinum the first one and completed both demo and did fine. I would consider myself a lower tier average player.

To be honest this is not a casual game in anyway, it is very stressful and overwhelming. This every little mistake is punished and you have to learn the game completely before even trying to progress. If the internet or KZread didn’t exist for information people wouldn’t play this.
Rob bad at the game, just let Delison the badger play it for him.
I’m sitting at 91% with the trophies 🏆, great game
I really do like game and I’m trying to learn but man this game is brutal to new comers I died like billion times still on first big boss.
