Please mr. Acg
I wish i could win a nioh 2 copy :)
Greetings from Honduras central America
sup boss, the vid seems to be cut short at the end
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. ☻
He said it was in progress.
Glad you're enjoying your romp in ancient Japan and appreciate the shoutout. Already had folks showing up on Nioh videos mentioning you sent em my way 😀
Both you and ACG put out great content! Now back to binge watching your let’s play lol
Hey cowboy is here!!! Sweet love your channel.
Lobe your vids man. Been helping me with souls games for years lol
Yeah man, you really helped me with my build and crafting. You the Real MVP
I played Dark Souls 3, Sekiro, Code Vein with Cowboy! You have great walkthrough! 😁
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.
You have set the bar so high for reviews that I base my purchases around them. You still buy copies even when you get them for free, down to earth, perfect mix of humor and seriousness to balance the video and respect the audience. Also, you and FightinCowboy is hands down the best collaboration. Thanks for the detailed reviews.
To the master of game reviews, a narrator like no other, a legend of verbal judo, a mythic monster of manly musical notes slicing through games that can't make the cut, and setting apart the truly worthy! Love your beard and your reviews.
Verbal judo!
Lol you sure want that copy...I feel you
@Tahmid Antar I'm sorry brother, I was just messing around and now that is a new day I feel like a jerk. You are right and I apologize. Cant wait for friday! I loved the first one.
wow the cringe
9:52
"NOAH 2"
NOAH LANDS THE BOAT!!
Hahah brilliant
Or Ki instead of Chi.
Only guy on YT who’s reviews I trust right here!
Whose.
@Bryce Czirr Well isn't that presumptuous.
Ditto!
Don’t forget Angry Joe
@Bryce Czirr if you prefer your game reviews to be spoon fed to you by clowns at places like IGN, Kotaku or Polygon then you are beyond help. For real reviews from real gamers 99.9999% of us come here for guys like ACG
I can always count on ACG for great,detailed,no nonsense/no filler reviews which is why I ALWAYS check for his reviews FIRST before all other reviewers. Keep up the good work!
My Grandfather told me to always trust a man with a beard. When I asked Why, he told me that owning one requires patience and careful grooming to look after and maintain. Legend! Great review, thanks.
That's bs. And you can trust me. I'VE... got a beard.
😏
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
Bro you cant even imagine the difficulty spikes in 1.
2 is hard. But its smooth sailing compared to that
Oh wait. Dude are you fighting the bull?
The guy the game litterally says to avoid? Go around him. Youll find a way back to him later in the level and your new gear will mean a world of difference
I'm a simple man. Give me a character creator and I'm in.
Agree
The best thing is making your characters female and hella attractive
Im abit less simple, give me character creation, co-op campaign and I'm in. XD
And it even has scythe as a weapon.
I agree, you're definitely a simple man.
So psyched for Noah 2! 🤣 9:52
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.
You are also robbing yourself of resources as you can sell, offer or disassemble those items you don't want.
He didn't say buy or not
I'm a late, latecomer to gaming, played Nioh through PS Pluss and fell in love with modern gaming. I'm can't wait to get my hands on this title.
Thomas Burns you are new to gaming and NIOH made you love it? Hats off to you sir, that is incredible
Curious to know your age
Thomas Burns i hear ya there man, PS plus does throw out some gems from time to time...and I’m 100% sure your going to love this one..
Hahahah your never too late to become a gamer 😉
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)
Same. Nioh on PS plus is what made me get into gaming. Before, I was really into anime but now I'm borderline addicted.
Man I’m so pumped for this. The first game had amazing gameplay and I can’t wait to see how they’ve improved upon it
due to personal circumstances I need to wait for a good sale ( Things will get better eventually tho). that being said, is just fantastic to spend 15 or so minutes on your review always. so objective, and yet passionate work as always. thanks bro.
juan barnaby dominguez carvalho - Hopefully your personal circumstances becomes better over time.
@@NYCJoeBlack that is so nice of you bro... means so much! Thanks!!!
juan barnaby dominguez carvalho - NP. ❤️
I never understood why you say "karak with ACG" I'm pretty sure you ARE ACG?
His channel is "Angry Centaur Gaming," his handle is Karak. Don't know where he got it.
Hearing it that way confuses me too. Is ACG more than one person now?
Dead-Owl 911 I’ve never seen/heard anyone other than him.
At first I thought ACG means Anime, cartoon and games
All this time I thought he called himself carrot 🥕
Lol. Koei Tecmo still can't write a reasonable story, but they love themselves some anime.
Also they still can't make a good and memorable locations xD
5:30 that dismemberment though.
"Cottage cheese face" & "vasoline vision" are going to be my new favorite terms for a while. Keep up the excellent work with your reviews my friend. You do the internet and us gamers a great service.
"And, just like the ba-"
I have to know where that was going or I'm not gonna be able to sleep haha
Maybe he mentioned the Corona Virus and had to cut it due to demonetization?
Hailing from Trinidad in the West Indies, our first case of covid19 has just been announced and with a game like this coming out perfect timing to stay inside and safe... Well safeish cuz this game looks deeply mental.. Always watch your reviews before and after buying my games
Damn if your island got it, then nowhere is safe. Stay safe brother
so wait? was it a buy, sale, rent or never touch ? or did i miss that?
Yeah same he missed that part which is weird
Super stoked to play this, the beta was outstandingly hard and this is one of the only souls-like games that I feel goes outside of the norm and almost becomes its own genre
It's like a strategic game in alot of ways, the way you can customize and itemize to slay yokkai, almost reminds me that William could be a Witcher but in Japan lmao, since he also looks so much like Geralt. Imagine if Skyrim open world had Nioh combat, my god, and you go on quests and explore open world
Sekiro.....
@@FGTRTD24 I love Sekiro, that's why I said "one of the only". Blasphemous is another outstanding title
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.
Look into “Wings of Vi”, incredible game that gets slept on way too much. It’s a Steam game that’s got platforming elements as well as combat. Very Souls Inspired.
Souls is my favorite series of all time. Nioh is the only other game that has ever been able to scratch that itch. Can't wait to buy this one.
I heard Sekiro is pretty comparable but i never had a chance to play it myself.
Bloodborne is really good to.
Brandon Putnam Bloodborne is the best
@@thomasbane0 Sekiro is nothing like dark souls or Nioh.
Anubra Kahn I agree I’ve played it. Didn’t feel the same
Tyson Fury knockout punch reference very well done sir
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.
The first Nioh hasn't even been out for a long time so how has it been a comfort game for you for a long time lol?
@@Largentina. I got the first Nioh when it came out in 2017 it's 2020 so that's three years.
@@MrFreedomforyou 3 years is definitely a long time...if you've only been alive for 5 or 6 years.
In these days where most people get a game and be done with it in about a week or so to play one game for three years and still have alot to do is quite an accomplishment. I see what you're trying to do buddy and it's not working.
@@MrFreedomforyou What I'm trying to do? Haha ok. 3 years isn't that long of a time is all I wash saying.
Your character is apparently part Yokai so you can use transformations and the provided abilities as well. I'll be watching the second part of your review to here you explain that system if I can.
First one was such a treat, I hope this catches even more people and it's reach can grow. Excited big time for this one.
Oh it will.
Zexhall I typically buy all soulslikes, but for some reason couldn’t get into the first one (stopped playing in the cave level, so like the second proper area, I think), so I’m on the fence with Nioh 2. Its a game that I should be really into, but Nioh 1 wasn’t worth it for me (didnt get enough out of it for the price I paid, I’ve tried multiple times to get into it but no luck), so now I’m not sure...
The first Nioh was one of few (if not the only) game where I felt spear type weapons were fun an exciting to use. Easily my favourite weapon type, Nioh left the turtling & poking spear wielding archetype in the dust for a dynamic and interesting playstyle. Keen to play Nioh 2 just to experience that again.
asdfghjkl;' spear is Nioh is easy mode. It has so much reach. It’s the definitive beginner build.
This game looks pretty great.
No your great
@@rain1676 no he is grant
Tom no he is Kilumba
@@rain1676 No u
none of u is great
I loved the first Nioh for the ability to choose graphical presets. It was one of the few games that had a "60 fps mode" and to this day there are way too few games doing it. Props to the developers for including it.
Hi man, I just need to tell you how incredible your reviews are. I could give you a million compliments but I’ll just say thank you!
The first Nioh seriously scratched my itch for a souls game as it is my favorite genre, but after i played it, i saw it as it's own beast. so excited to jump into Nioh 2!
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.
That brevity bit was hilarious. Lol
I really like the art style and battle system of this game. Definitely a unique "souls" type game. Definitely would love to play this!
Love that there is a deep character creation system in place. A little timid to buy this, though, the last one got unreasonable difficult at times
Nioh 2 so far for me has been really great, definitely recommend
i wish it was released for pc :( gotta wait so long
@@shinski8114 just buy a pre owned ps4 or shut up really. There's a few good exclusives on ps4 that u would probably enjoy aswell like Bloodborne and God Of War
@@JohnDoe-pu5gk PS5 is right around the corner and it's gonna be backwards compatible. I think people who didn't have a console this gen should just wait for PS5.
Great review. Love the FightinCowboy shout out. He has gotten me through the entire Dark Souls series.
Psquare, his videos helped me get through the first Nioh. Such a skilled gamer.
Psquare he’s good at Dark Souls, but his Bloodborne and Nioh content is lacking the same quality
Helped me with Hatred Demon. Nice guy, nice LPs, too.
@@bizzzzzzle Good to know. So far I am finding Nioh to be easier so might need the ole Cowboy this round..
Another great ACG review! With the release of Nioh 2 I feel like this is the kickoff of 2020 being an amazing year for gaming. love Nioh and this is one of my most anticipated games this year. I can’t wait till Friday!
You forgot to mention a nice addition which are Loadouts that was not in Nioh 1. They work like in The Division 2 and of you want to cosplay with different characters it's a real time saver.
not planning to play it, but can't miss your review.
miss walking the walk, had a blast with it. bring it back if possible
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
A great review in progress so far! Only thing, it is pronounced "Coo Sah Ree Gah Mah" (Kusarigama)! Just a friendly correction since it is also my favorite weapon of all time ever since I first saw it in Ninja Gaiden 2 :) Can't wait to finally play this on release!!!
pronounced as it is written, guess for Americans it is hard because how everywhere well in europe "i" for example is pronounced eeee aka how Americans pronounce "e"
mel b you realize there are long and short vowels, it’s not Americans using e wrong
@@bizzzzzzle yeah i know it's not the main reason why this was pronounced wrong but more so what u are mentioning, was just a lot to bring up/explain so just wanted to list an example, the alphabet still is def weird when it comes to English and def 9 out 10 makes Americans pronounce foreign names and such wrong
Damn, I just noticed the blue swords sticking into the ground resemble (or are) the Dark Dragon Blade from Ninja Gaiden! That is awesome! Funny that the most evil sword is used to indicate benevolent graves :D
Haven't beaten the first Nioh yet, but I'm really excited to try this one sometime soon!
Thanks for the review, Karak! Hope you keep enjoying the game!
Same here
I’m sure you aren’t since this is basically a Nioh 2 “but that’s what it is,” no, it’s a NIOH 2 meaning it is a continuation of the first. The difficulty only scales after the first so if you couldn’t beat the first, you probably wouldn’t make it after the second of this game!
The best reviewer on You Tube. Fighting Cowboy is the best exampling Nioh and he did the same for Nioh 2.
i cant wait for friday, i love nioh more then i do the original dark souls games. the builds, the diablo like loot, the customization and the looks drag me in. super hyped
Same. Friday can't come soon enough for me
Not getting invaded by people all the time also is a huge point for me. Pretty much ruins DS in certain PVP heavy zones.
Can’t wait to play this. Nioh was amazing and I bet this will be better. But always. Always gotta check ACG first!
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.
I absolutely applaud any dev team that can take the alleles out of the Soulsborne germ line and create something new and unique all of their own.
It will only encourage more creative thinking and of course, many poor clones, but variety is the spice of life and it will be interesting to see how that Soulsborne evolutionary line manifests itself in the next gen.
👌🏾
what i love about nioh..
the freedom of builds, the mission and level design, the story and progression, the loot and items, the capacity to play solo or coop,
everything a game should have
ACG is my Number #1 game review source. Great work as always!
I would honestly say that the first Nioh game is one of the most underrated of recent times. Hit all the high spots, mechanics, visuals, sound, atmosphere, challenge etc. Really looking forward to the second. I am wondering where the marketing budget went for this game though, hardly seen anything over here in the UK. Cant wait to play the second, thanks for your review in progress, great work.
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.
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.
@ADz -l That's purely subjective.
20 seconds into the video, a reference to obscure mid-90s late night cable TV programming.
And that's why Karak is one of my favorite game reviewers.
I hope there is a higher skill ceiling, i basically hit a wall once i perfected the parries, and never really had to worry about anything again cuz the parries did so much damage. I could also use this to farm good items off revenants.
All that being said i'm mostly commenting for the giveaway.
thanks for the review! they are good to have with all the heavy hitters coming down the pipe
This review solidifies my decision. I’ll get this game...when I can afford it
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.
Oh yeah, i forgot about this game coming out. Time to take care of my souls itch.
@Diarmid O'Connor 🤔
Relax weaboo 😂
Excited for Elden Ring?
Loved the first one's combat and bosses, but hated the needless inventory management and amount of fluff systems that added nothing to the combat.
Still looking forward to this one when it eventually comes out on PC. Great review.
“Ku-sari-gama”... “coo-sah-ri-gah-ma”
This bothered me mre than it should have
Good review I do prefer longer deeper reviews like this personally than many channels few min long reviews.
“Highly Skilled Money Wrestlers”
I was wondering about that one
Dude! Duuuuude! Im literally so hyped I saw you had a video posted! It might not mean much, but I rely on/crave your videos on games I want to buy or have never heard of. I'm mezmerized by the way you break down and disect each game, and your reviews are always top quality and strait to the point. Dude!!!!!! Keep doing what your doing! Much love 🥰
Odd cut off at the end of the video. It just seemed to stop you mid sentence.
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.
I just picked up nioh 1. Looks like I'll have to get nioh 2 as well
I tried out the first game and I didn't really enjoy it much but I think I need to give it another shot soon. Thanks for your reviews.
Subbed off this. No BS and highlighting some of the shortcomings, especially the visuals.
Stoked to play this and review it on my co-op channel with my best friend. We're big Souls fans and the multiplayer features sound dope
WAS IT BUY RENT WAIT FOR A SALE?! 😂
DigitalArtCurationClub 2:50
I was wondering the same thing as when he said it is a definitely a buy I assume that he was just talking about his own preference opinion on it not a recommended for everyone else
Is it a buy????
I almost gave him a dislike for it. Almost.
@@erock_6177 don't trust any reviewer on whether to buy a game, watch sn episode or 2 of a let's play and you can usually tell if it's for you.
Please support these guys! This team is awesome!
i think the wall thing is done on purpose to make the game harder. i always felt like managing the camera was part of the boss fight. im not complaining since it forces me to pay attention to my surroundings better.
I love the setting and the style, but there are so many things keeping me from spending my money to play this.
Richard Ratynski I loved the first but as I get older I dont like getting super frustrated with a game when I have bigger things in life to be stressed about.
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).
Like what? If you mean real-life obstacles like bills etc I understand, but if you mean because of the game itself, I can't see what would make you feel this way!
Just wait then. Nioh 2 will most likely be even better down the line, if the first one is anything to go by
Mezuki is probably my favorite boss in all of Nioh. I love his design.
Can we just call this genre what it is? It's a Strategy-action role playing game. You could just as well replace the word strategy with survival.... Either way I'm flabbergasted that so many people act as though it's impossible to define without invoking the souls title. SARPG.... There.... You're welcome.
@Mk. 5II33II4N I'm just gonna go scorched Earth and start calling them Nioh like games to piss people off
A Learned Action Role Playing Game... A LARPG
...... Yeah.... T n A is still really good lol.
Well if it doesn't catch on I will start calling them boobs and butts games. Nobody will get it but you and that's good enough for me.
@@sethchandler4170 I love it, I'll start using this even though I already call Nioh something else. I hste how much souls fanboys downplay this game but I can get them back this way.
Graphic and gameplay improvement compared to the first one is insane. William adams looks great in nioh 2. Hope the 3rd nioh would be his story continuation again. Cant wait to be released in steam, ill buy once its discountes at least 40%.
Love the way you mispronounce Kusarigama, it sounds more like "shiny balls"
LMAO
My review is of Karak!
Great reviews, with all the commentary I wonder how many takes he needs? No need to wonder because all I can think about is that we get unsponsored meat and potatoes from his reviews. He shreds each game like a pair of drum sticks and is soon on to the next one like the next lap in Nascar. Great voice clarity, and choice gameplay footage to keep us all interested, although I wonder how many times he's made a video and gone onto the next one because his voice is sounding a little stifled. Which, this could be because of demonetization and believe me, I get it, but this review couldn't have been done with nothing said. Overall though the sound byte is amazing and jaw dropping accuracy of facts spit out fluidly with metaphor and simile is just amazing. Simply put Karak is too good to pass on. I would leave "renting" or "waiting" for the other shortcomers on this platform. He's a "buy now" and I mean now because the nutritious diet of review won't be on the market long. If you like the review just hit a thumbs up or subscribe, and I will see you on the flippity flip!
Expect people to be stuck on character creation for 4 hours.
I recommend going to options and turning on "Reset Camera Upon Guarding".
Am I gonna buy this game even though I haven't finished the first one? Yes, yes I am.
Cool review, but MAN you need to use the system to recover your ki from attacking. It's like, the BIGGEST thing in Nioh 1 and 2 and you didn't touch on it at all. Learning and mastering that timing for getting your ki back with the weapons you use is absolutely 100% necessary in Nioh 2, ESPECIALLY in the Yokai realms where Ki regeneration is throttled super hard.
Good review, and I liked that you give a big heads up regarding possible issues that can be met regarding the title's camera.
Trust ur reviews more then anyone else bc I know ur not being paid to pump up the game even if it’s garbage. U give measured opinions and I appreciate it. I been excited for this game but very curious if they balanced it better since beta.
You have the best descriptions for things! Never change Karak, never change...
Any time I’m on the fence about a game I look for that “Buy, Wait for a sale, Never touch” review in my inbox. Great review, as always. Looking forward to busting up some more demons, now.
You explain it so thoroughly, as if expecting somebody not to play Dark Souls prior.
Kurasigami is my jam but dual axes is second now! Plus loved the demon/blessed weapons nice addition!🤩😍
Kusarigami
Completely agree with the music however there is a fix simply get the theme tune to Ninja two from the Commodore 64, that while you're playing and yeah it goes really well
Loving the frequent content. Keep it up Karek
For some reason I could never really get into NIOH, even though it should be a dream for me given I love the setting and do like Souls-like games.
Will give part 2 definitely a try at least at some point.
Damn, I told myself I was gonna wait on this one, as I recently picked up the first one for free on PS+ and have barely scratched the surface. Then I saw the fucking character creator.
Damn you, Team Ninja!
He complained about something that can be easily fixed. You can take stats, like said high or low stance attack buff, and move it to a different weapon by reforging
Great review and glad they continue the several visual-graphics options, wish all games would let us chose frame rate instead of image quality.
That collision detection observation really surprised me. This wasn't an issue for NioH. Hope it's something they can patch.
Nioh2, Ghost of Tsushima and Cyberpunk 2077 protagonist, it truly is the year of Samurai!
