Yeah you can, not during gameplay but at a shrine

Are you playing Nioh 2 or 1? I didn’t think the second game was on PS+

In N2 you eventually get the ability to have 2 guardian spirits equipped and can swap between them during combat

I’m playing Nioh 2. It was available from the monthly PS Plus game a few months ago. I glad I just add them and play them when I’m interested.

This game so far is exactly what I was looking for.

Yeah I just beat it a couple weeks ago. First 100+ hour game on the PS5 for me.

The learning curve is super steep but once you find your go-to weapons and understand all the stats/gear systems it’s very satisfying to build up character.

This game doesn’t give a fukk about your feelings tho some sections will repeatedly fukk you up until you learn how to fight certain enemies

Yeah, Team Ninja games never gave a fukk about your feelings, just git gud.

Damn, I wasn’t expecting the game to be this punishing. I’m struggling to get the timing on pressing R2 + O to stagger whatever this enemy is on the the first fukking mission LOL.

Which enemy are you talking about? They got that giant horse thing at the very beginning but it’s optional. Your fundamentals are on point if you can take it on tho.

I was stuck on that first Enki gorilla thing for like 90 minutes when I first started playing . Rest of the level took me forever shyt was like a 3 hour ordeal and I was mentally exhausted. After the first 2 story levels and some side quests tho I came back and beat the horse demon at the gate and the rest of the level much faster than that first playthrough

Watching weapon guides on YouTube really helped me pick a good weapon from the start and learn all my fundamentals. That Ki pulse shyt is super important so learn the pacing of your attacks and when to time it right for the perfect pulse cuz that stamina regen is clutch


Also don’t forget to use the yokai form for boss fights and really practice your pulse counters and yokai abilities in the dojo. You really gotta lab this game to get the most out of the combat

Yep, it is the Enki Gorilla and I’m trying to hit that burst counter at the right time against it.

I’m still at it though because I enjoy the mechanics of the game so much.

I definitely getting better against the ugly big head enemies. But this Gorilla cat is something else.

Yeah that enki is just the tip of the iceberg too But once you understand attack patterns and really utilizing every tool you have in combat, each enemy type becomes easier. Biggest thing is understanding the pacing of your attacks while ki pulsing and your weapon’s combos/high damage moves

Also the kind of burst counter you have can differ depending on the type of guardian spirit you use so it’s definitely worth experimenting with and practicing in the dojo. The yokai summon will do an attack that you can practice your burst counters on

Hopping into this since I couldn't get otogi to run properly in xemu

Seems like the closest alternative

And I'm digging it so far

Took me a minute, but cheesed the fukk outta that damn monkey

Strafing to the right is the cheat code fellas

I really enjoyed it it plays like a more technical souls game with a linear mission structure. Combat is super deep along with the buildcrafting. Game had me in the dojo labbing like this was Tekken or some shyt

Yeah, combat is way deeper than i expected. Once the fact settled in, i felt overwhelmed but in a good way. Between each stance having its own moveset, the number of weapon types, the yokai spirits, ki pulse timing, parries, counters, etc.

I know I'm finna dump loads of hours into this

Especially once I see more of what typenof builds there are. I'm digging the spear and dual swords for now though. Especially the former

"NONE SHALL PASS"





Nioh 2 definitely going to hold you down for a long time there's so much to do in this game.

NG is just the start

Top 10 game of all time for me. Combat is so satisfying and addicting. I mostly used low stance tonfas and just drained the ki out of everything so fast. shyt was so fun.
