Guess who's back.
Back again.
Cad is back.
Nice to see... hear... that you recovered. Take it easy for a while, you deserve it!
Komodo23 what the fuck are you talking about
ROOPERTROOPER MEGALOMANE He was ill. He made a few Twitter posts about it and says it himself at the beginning of this video.
People in general seem to overestimate how many people use Twitter.
I have never, nor do I ever intend on using Twitter. I've got enough message boards that I don't need that shite pile of one. Doesn't help that it's main userbase are the type of people who use the internet exclusively through their phones, and only discovered it in the past 5-8 years...
planescaped my thoughts and situation exactly.
+planescaped
Same here. I have absolutely no desire to get involved with Twitter; I'm too antisocial and too busy with my real life to worry about whatever crap people are talking about on there.
7:37 I'm assuming Caddy meant shuriken carrying and not the ability to somehow physically carry a classic street fighter move.
It would be awesome if you could though.
I wonder if this game contain giant ennemy crabs. It's based on japanese history after all.
Do you think you’re being clever, you dunce knob?
As someone who has played Okami and other Japanese lore containing games; I found the bosses to be really cool :-)
Yeah, Honda Tadakatsu's boss gimmick miiiiiiiight have something to do with the popular conceit that he never sustained any injury worse than a scratch during any battle he ever fought.
This game makes me sad, my brother loves any game that involves the history of federal japan...makes me even sadder he isn't alive to see how wonderful games are now...
Oh shutup about ya gay brother.
@@WildHart_z you're mad immature. Grow up
@@WildHart_z ???
The monsters, movements, and weapon/armor customizations in this make me think of Monster Hunter.
That fact alone makes me want this game.
Everyone's talking about Breath of the Wild and Caddi talks about Nioh.
Dyonus because he does whatever the fuck he wants, not what everybody is doing, like wtf is your problem dyonus.
Beacuse he has dignity?
*HE'S A REBEL*
@@Wesker12349 no need to be mean.. He didnt say anything bad.
Wishing you well soon Caddy! Absolutely loved the video , as always. :)
Hundred Eyes? Pffft! That's nothing before my Thousand Eyes Restrict~
Reminds me of dark souls. But with actual characters that help you.... and a storyline you can actually understand without a game guide.
It's quite ironic because it's actually the difference, none of the characters is helping you, there are only two short submissions and two short parts in the main mission where NPCs help you
You are basicly the guy who does the whole dirty work for them
And the story is easy to understand but not good
JasonDoe1000 ah. Thanks for that context!
Nioh is fun for that but Dark Souls' world, lore and characters are far, far more memorable. Plus as an off-note I think Lords of the Fallen does Nioh's more obvious style of storytelling and world building a lot better but that's just my opinion.
True. I can dig that.
First15 Nioh has "a storyline you can actually understand"-- did we play the same game 😂?
Actually Kelley is the hollow man and he did die before the events that happened which explains the whole clone thing. Fun fact Kelley was an alchemist in real life along with 100 eyes when he was human.
it's gonna take one hell of a game to stop this being my GOTY, loved it !!
7:39 "Shoryuken Carrying" would be really nice in Street Fighter
as an alpha, beta and last chance player. the twilight missions actually used to be a lot harder before final release, youd have to fight mobs of skeletons and other such things while fighting bosses like Ino-enma or Onryoki.
twilight missions existed for the alpha players who wanted the brutality of the original concept of the game, because there was a divide in the community of people bitching saying the game was too unforgiving in its brutality. Aaaaaand then for some reason twilight missions ALSO got nerfed in difficulty. Nioh used to be insanely brutal back in the alpha. beyond demon souls brutal.
at 11:14 i think theres a mistake in the editing because i cant catch what number, if any, you were when you beat the lvl 145 recommended mission
I absolutely love the yokai designs in this game. They basically took the highly stylised visuals of anime creatures and translated them perfectly into real looking creatures.
What if there was a Dark Souls-esque game that was even FASTER than Nioh?
+Nana-Kyoto Alas, such a thing does not exist
It's a thing called Bloodborne
If there was such a thing, that'd be simply MADNESS.
+Deviljho Bloodborne is NOT faster paced than Nioh
...In what universe is Nioh faster than Bloodborne, faster than dark souls sure, faster than Bloodborne nah
Nice to see you back Caddy.
Hope you get well soon
Huh? I had no clue Obsidian Samurai had his name changed in certain versions
Was missing ya dude. Good to hear you're on a steady recovery
Caddy. I destroyed those crystals without trying. Maybe you were underleveled.
Get well soon Caddicarus (also I want you to review Monster Hunter)
Caddy's back!... but he's sick. Hope you get better soon man
Nier Automata next?
WilliamT S or Horizon
WEISS SCHNEE
Or Zelda
TheGzeus
What
I thought it was just about robits and shit
TheGzeus
I'm guess so used to Kingdom Hearts, I guess anything not Kid Friendly doesn't fit with Square Enix in my book.
TheGzeus
... And?
I don't like Final Fantasy, or Dragon Quest, or really anything else they've made.
glad your back caddy
7:38 Shoryuken? I think you mean shuriken Caddy.
Whats the Ost called around 5:30?
Yay! New review, made my day, thanks!
CADDY! Don't worry me like that
glad to see you again
(Nervously looks around himself and sighs)
I'm gonna get crucified for saying this but... I think this game is way better than both Dark Souls and Bloodborne
Dracomut Dark Souls? Yes. Bloodborne? Naaaaaaa
@Shifter X I'd say Nioh 1 is still worse than Bloodborne but I think Nioh 2 is the best game ever, not exaggerating. Also imo.
It’s been a little while and my opinion has now changed, I think this game is better than Bloodborne now.
At least Daddy Caddy is still alive
"Now hands that do dishes can feel as soft as your face with mild green Fairy Liquid"
Mhhhhhhhhhhhhh this PS4 game is really good and is good to have you back Caddy.
Id say nioh is more demons souls than dark souls especially with the mission structure as apposed to the semi-linear open world
I was really hoping that you'd upload today, since it's actually my birthday haha
As sad as it sounds, I haven't even played Nioh and yet despite you stating "Spoilers", I didn't want to turn the video off... I missed my Caddicarus addiction too much!
omgitsMeerkatChris Same, I could never turn down a Caddy video!
YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG
I love your videos Caddy. you away seem to have a similar view point to myself on games.
& Nioh is no exception. Beautiful Game!
I have to say I have been pondering over the purchase of a PS4pro, Every-time I watch your videos & you wax lyrical about it I think to myself, I should get one. However I don't have the "Excuse" that I need it for work :-P
Keep up the Ace content Fella :-D
no spoilers for me today. I'll come back once I've played the game
That option to sacrifice details for framerate is on the standard PS4 as well! Just a heads-up.
7:38 - I know Caddy mean to say "Shuriken carrying" but what he actually said was "Shoryuken carrying" and now I'm imagining Ryu fighting through this whole game with his bare hands XD
Yeah, beating the story is rather draining due to the repetition.
But getting the PLATINUM TROPHY?
All I'm gonna say is Marobashi, Marobashi and then some more Marobashi.
And then I put the game down for 6 months for how exhausted I was.
THAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANKFULLY the DLC isn't required for the Platinum Torphy. :,D
William is Irish because his Spirit is of Irish spiritual lore. so, yeah.
7:51 Odd difference between the NA and PAL versions. That boss is named "Obsidian Samurai" in the NA version, but just "Dark Samurai" in the PAL version.
+Timothy E. I'm pretty sure it's the other way around since i live in Portugal which is a PAL region and in my game he's called Obsidian Samurai
That's odd then. It should be Dark Samurai for your copy, it's Obsidian Samurai on mine.
where have you been?? good to hear your voice again, mate.
looks like I got a new game on my bucket list. thanks caddy!
2:26 Hold up.
Were those lightning corgis?
Paired Raikai; Lightning Dogs.
One of the better Guardian Spirits.
+Kapasa1 Suzaku for life!
Lightning shibe inus
Caddy, have you ever played onimusha
10/10 game. best action game in years.
The biggest struggle for me when I played this at my mate's house was re-learning how to use a controller, not used one since Christmas.
I did every single goddamn side quest when I went through the game for the first time. As soon as I was done, I started a new playthough with a different build. I'm still doing all the side quests, and I'm not bored in the slightest. And I've still got the DLC to go through, which is why I made a new build. My other build was a bit all over the place, so I wanted to use all the info I had about the game to make a better build before jumping into the dlc, but I didn't want to just use a book of reincarnation, because I didn't fully understand the story yet, so I wanted to go though the main game again focusing more on the story.
Don't underestimate "People" Bosses. In this kinda game you should go like "OMG this boss has only two legs..I'm fucked!!"
Great vid :D.
You can face the first boss up to thirteen times in the game.
Can
Can you play it co-op on your first playthrough?
Holy crap, Caddy's not dead.
I'm starting to think a Caddy video isn't a Caddy video if he doesn't say 'bombastic' atleast once.
NIO-OH! Im gonna dance on top of the stairs, cause no one can stop the Nioh dance! Nioh Nioh Nioh...
So, a word on the accent:
There's a few scholars who poured over all the Shakespeare plays and poems looking at the rhyme patterns to try to discover the London accent of the late 1500s/early 1600s. And, shockingly, it's a *lot* rougher than you'd think and is something of a cross between a West Country accent and an Irish accent.
The more you know!
16 minute video, uploaded 10 minutes ago, 9 dislikes?
Ah the internet... never change...
Btw Nioh is amazing.
7:40 "shuryoken carrying" like the street fighter move?
So I'm guessing this could be described as "Dark Souls: Prepare to Backtrack Edition" in souls-like-terms?
It runs pretty well on normal PS4, only dips I had were when screen was full of explosions and particles and what nots but overall it ran smooth as butter. Also the boss he is explaining as "luck based" is simple if you use fast weapons
This better be a 10/10 because Nioh deserves it.
+Darth Sceledrus I wouldn't say a 10/10, it has flaws. BS flaws even
Ashuraman Nah it has no flaws
Darth Sceledrus The story isn't good (despite being cheesy fun) and the characters are forgettable, for me I need a reason to care about what happens in a game, otherwise I lose interest, but with Nioh I just didn't care what happened because of that.
Eclipseknight9 I couldn't care less about the story. I appreciate that it's there. But it's all about the gameplay for me.
The game looks like a ps2 game and it has you going through the same level ten times even if you moved on to a different map. I like the variety of gear and abilities and combat though.
i just started playing nioh i am still in the begining and for some reason the amrita gauge doesnt fill up no matter how many enemies i kill can someone explain if i am doing something wrong
Anyone else played the game recently???? It really doesn't feel the same as when it came out.
Dark souls(my favorite game) + ninja gaiden + onimusha = nioh
the standard ps4 has the same framerate options
Like you i was confused why they made an historical English character sound Irish. According to the game's creators they wanted to make William Irish because Irish folklore has alot of spirits in it and since Siarocise (spelling) is based on an celetic water spirit, and since the game itself is replete with spirits, it would make sense and also explain why William can see spirits
14:00 Is that... Zinogre...? It attacks just like Zinogre!
Honda Tadakatsu is really really intimidating at first.... And then you realise he never blocks.
Dear "literally everyone who played Nioh and Dark Souls",
Stop comparing Nioh to Dark Souls... Not every game that has a stamina bar is Dark Souls. Hell, Nioh has more in common with Onimusha.
That said they're both awesome games.
Has a lot more in common with dmc compared to souls
How beat oda nobunaga, when he have 1/4 life he stop the battle , i am confusing it's the last ungyo title i doesn't make
7:07 I don't know how... but I managed to beat this boss on my first play thought on my first try (if I remember correctly) without even realizing the crystals were there, or that I should destroy them... but when I fought him again I destroyed the crystals, and it was extremely easy, so I don't see why you had so much trouble with it.
caddy you can actually destroy one of the crystals in the warrior of the east fight with rangebefore going into the arena. i did it and beat him first try and i doubt im too lucky lol
William is Irish because Americans love the Irish (and who can blame 'em, our accents are SO damn sexy~), especially since a large chunk of us are descended from Irish settlers.
And for some reason this apparently means that game devs think that British people can't be used as protagonists because it's more fun to be an Irishman. Feel like if the people behind this and The Saboteur were put in charge of Assassin's Creed Syndicate, the entire population of London would be Irish.
The reason behind it was actually that ghosts are a thing in irish culture and they believe in them
And since William can see and believe in ghosts they thought it would be smarter to make him irish
JasonDoe1000 Do British people not believe in ghosts?
Maybe, who knows
But spirits and such are part of the irish culture, so it fit
This is a Japanese game. And yes us Englishman do have a fun reputation of being the sleazy bad guys in games and I'm totally cool with that.
Unless you have a smooth brogue that is easy to understand, Irish accents are anything but sexy half the time. I've lived in Ireland for a while and if you can get past the nasty slurring and all the "yaalrightbai's" I guess so yeah. Genuinely worse than cockney.
William looks a lot like edward Kenway from ac4.. And willams character directory entry says this:
Saoirse's special ability to locate powerful Amrita spirit-stones allowed him to flourish as a pirate for a time, but when he stumbled upon a secret military project to weaponize Amrita, he was imprisoned in the Tower of London.
Just before William escaped the Tower of London, the alchemist Edward Kelley stole
Pirates eh?
Edward KeLLey eh?
Coincidence? I dont think so.
so is nioh kind of like Onimusha + Dark Souls?
'Shoryuken carrying' gotta keep that ryu in your pocket
you should do Shadwen, it's a PS4 game that I haven't seen much of anything of.
Love your videos, but did you seriously just show the final boss and give away the ending without any spoiler warning? What the hell is wrong with you?
bondingo 0:23 He warned you
Idk how I missed that...
*WHISTLE CONCERT*
_Caddi doesn't give a flying Curly Wurly_._
Dude is King of spoiling games for noobs and boring veteran players w basics. Would get more views if he just SAVED THE SPOILERS FOR THE END OF HIS VIDS.
Will you be reviewing nier automata?
1:57 That move.....so cool....
I'm personally taking a break from this game since I'm not really enjoying it. I love the silly story and I love how William comes all as if he has no idea what's going on in the cutscene since everyone speaks Japanese to him. But the bosses aren't fun to fight. Sure I can beat them and sure they have interesting designs but other then that they're more of a pain in the ass to fight and I loose interest rather quickly. That Hundred Eyes fight looks fun so maybe I'll pick it up again. Good review as always Caddy.
His guardian spirit is named saoirse which means freedom in Irish so the story is basically about an Irish man fighting for freedom so you basically play as the OG Michael Collins
Welcome Back :D
Good review caddy.
I want buy nioh but first i have to buy a ps4.
: )
i love your channel
Who else would love a *Zelda* game with combat and dark fantasy tones similar to *Nioh* or *Dark Souls* ? Using a wide variety of weapons & outfits, each with their own combos & properties, SO many different creatures & bosses from lore re-imagined to be scarier, unlocking the ability to play as Princess Zelda, Ganon, Sheik, Impa, and others in New Game+, etc.
Dud why dont you put the story in the back i dont want to spoil my self, i will watch it after i buy it i guess
I'm sure that's not what they did for the ending given William actually had a family back home but with all the creative liberties the game have I don't think it really matters.
Is it still on sail nioh
caddy random question have you ever played the ps1 game jersey devil if not I recommend you do imagine spyro crash and mario 64 had a love child that's jersey devil sadly I've never met another human being that knew that this game existed =( #foreveralone
Entirely unrelated to the content in this video, Remember Pupicarus? That name would be perfect if it was reused for a series involving Stanley.
Akward-Silence-Icarus comedy youtube show.
Odd that Caddy had a hard time with Honda. I also thought that fight was pretty shitty, but mainly because it was incredibly underwhelming for a fight against one of history's biggest badasses. For me it was just a matter of baiting an attack, evading it, and then breaking a crystal before he recovered. Rinse, repeat two times and bam, you win. Practically a Zelda boss. By the looks of it, DPS was his main problem. For the most part, levels don't really matter in this game so long as you have the skill to make up for it, but Honda is a pure battle of numbers. If you don't have the damage output to break a crystal before he has time to recover and hit you, I can see how he could be a much bigger pain in the ass. I guess that would be one of the only times where it wouldn't be lame to use a Sloth talisman on a boss.
Fortunately there's a side mission where you get to fight Honda normally and it's considerably less shitty, although still relatively easy compared to most of the other duels in the game. Beyond super armour and that OP passive healing buff that kicks in at around 30%, Honda's bizarrely simple to smack around.
This is a great review! It's really made up my mind whether or buy or not
the cadster is back!!!!!!!
Still wanting this game on PC
so you CAN upgrade weapons and armor?
+Don MetalFreak Via soul matching and re forging yes. Soul Matching sacrifices a higher level weapon to level the weapon you want and reforging re rolls it's bonus stats
