    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.

    Fun fact: there's a purpose behind the "difficulty" rating of your phantoms. The game actually tracks your playstyle - how often you're in a certain stance, what spells you use, etc. The higher their difficulty the better their AI.

    What I really love about Nioh2 is that we can change the appearance of our armors and weapons to suit our preferences regardless the actual look or the type of said equipments, we can mix & match the cosmetic look of our character while still be able to use the armor we need for our intended build. That is something a *LOT* of similar games with RPG elements don't really give us the option/freedom to do so. The character customisation in Nioh2 is better than many similar games with RPG element, not many RPG games allows you to change the visual appearance of your equipments. Most of the time they left you stuck with your character's build. Nioh2 easily lets you change the look of your let's say the tanky build of Axe wielder that's obviously using heavy armors to look as some barbarian with cloth armor. We can also change the look of our let's say blessed weapon into a cursed weapon of the same type. To be honest, this is one of the most important things to keep you out from boredom while playing this game since it's quite hard and the learning curve is a bit steep for beginners. I've played over 200 hours across 2021 and spread evenly on all weapon types available to this game. Personally I liked Kusarigama, Switchglaive, and Dualswords build the most, while having Splitstaff and Axe as the least preferrable choices of main weapon. I still remember the time when I was a complete noob that it even took me 3 days to even clear the "tutorial-ish" first mission back in march, lmao.

    A major part of the game is loot. It's all about gear. Make sure you read stats actually do on weapons/armour using the help tool tip. Actually make sure you center around what you are building for. Makes an enormous difference in how difficult you will find the game. In NG don't be afraid to experiment a lot. It rewards you with titles etc which translate to more xp/damage etc when you redeem them.... And build sets if you can. Those bonuses are huge.

    Once you get into it this is one of the best games I've ever played. Starting it right after beating Sekrio twice I had low expectations and while I wish the deflect mechanic was here (I know it's in Wo Long but I just don't like it as much as the depth of control and diversity of play in Nioh 2) the weapon variety, enemy and AI, the 3 stances and all the Yokai abilities etc etc etc I'm having just as much fun playing it as I did Sekiro which was way too easy on NG+ but perfectly balanced and challenging in the first playthrough (first took 2 weeks, second took 3 days) which is why I looked up the best mechanically interesting Soulslikes and went for Nioh 2 (got The Surge 2 as well, also really great deep mechanics to that soulslike as well). Anyway it's damn good is all I'm saying. It's hard to get into and understand how to play but once you do this is basically Devil May Cry in a soulslike

    45 hours probably to complete the game in Way of the Samurai. After that's there's NG NG+ NG++ NG+++, with Dream of the: Strong/Demon/Wise/Nioh. And no it's not just the same game but harder, it's much more, you get new equipment sets (graces), new special skills each time. In Dream of the Nioh, you can finally get amazing skills. You even get more enemies and the Underworld etc. In other words, the game doesn't really start until you reach Dream of the Nioh. Everything before is an appetizer.

    Even what he said about inventory, grab everything you can. You be wishing you could aquire more amrita. Just sell everything white and yellow levels as a rule at the shrine under the kodama offerings and will make tons of amrita. I wish I knew that at the beginning of Nioh 1. I'm doing it now in Nioh 2 and it's a tremendous help to boost the levels ranks

    There's a Sake that you can drink that gives you +50% amrita. And if you get the Sukuna... set (the one that the Sudama can give you) then you can get 80% unused of that sake, so with 10 sake, it's as if you had 50 of them. Combine that with kodama blessing and the kodama bowl (which gives +29% blessing) and kodama core (+16% blessing I think?) and then you get a TON of amrita.

Inventory management is a little easier thanks to the favorited items tab (great for those items you wanna find in a combat and didn’t have room to put on your 4 bars of quick use.

    Yes this is better, and there's a filter system too, very useful, so you can search for specific things in your inventory. The major issue is the 4000 limit in the Storehouse, it's actually worse than Nioh 1 because now there are Soul cores, and they will end up eating 600-800 of that space, so for weapons/armours, you're looking at 3200-ish which is less than 4000 in Nioh 1.

    Lol I didn't figure out that soul core thing until part way through the second main missing after I did the one side quest that was available.

    Great video! Was never a fan of souls like games, & probably will never be. IMO games like these, you only get to see the first 2 animations of your attack before you dodge, rinse & repeat.

    Doing a 2nd play thru 3 years later and this game is still bangin- feel like some of the complaints in this video weren’t justified BUT some were- mainly just the overwhelming loot variety when you first start.. but once you kinda know what your looking for it’s not bad. 9/10 game for me

    I thought level design in Nioh 1 was really boring, and very repetitive, despite being a good game, I hope this one has more diversity. Because Nioh 1 was caves and caves and oh a Castel with a cave...

    Two things Did they bring back the graphics toggle? So you can choose to play at 60 but with worse visuals, or runs at 30 but with better visuals. Is there an option to use motion aiming when using long range weapons?

    You can choose 3 options. Framerate, visuals, or a bit of both. Aiming with a bow is how you would expect it in a 3rd person game

    @@rejectedmind-1173 great that they kept the graphics toggle. Totally forgot to ask if the option is available on base ps4s Also kinda disappointing that there is no option to use motion aiming. It's fine that it does't include it considering that the combat is mainly close quarters combat, but it would be nice to have the option to use it
