Nioh 2 thread

You can't. They are both high only.
I know you can cheese humans with leg sweep but crimson deals tons of damage.

This is for Tonfa right? Leg sweep should be available for low stance too

Kusarigama

Any magic that doesn't suck in Nioh 2?

Sloth is ez cheez magic still.

Something where magic points matter?

Did they make Yokai mode awful as a result of 1's LW?

we got an install size yet?

Instead of posting cute girls you want to rape and not giving code, post something useful
Is there a code for that Kaiji character?

I want these two to catfight each other
Pick whatever you want instead of having others choose for you

There's weapons other than just a katana? Never noticed.

yeah 35gb.

Reminder for all odachifags: the new odachi skill called bolting boar is a perfect block parry similar to sword's backwave/tempest combo BUT it was already nerfed and no longer downs humans for a final blow so it's usefulness is limited. it can however parry most if not all yokai unlike every other parry so that is cool

Can't wait. I've been starved for something fun to play.
Is unarmed actually viable?

Attached: 1583129648871.png (1920x1080, 2.05M)

It was viable in Nioh 1 because of the onmyo scrolls that boosted it's damage to usable levels. A better question you should've asked is: Is unarmed fun in Nioh 2 and does it have a real moveset now? no_

35 gb, it's a massive improvement considering the original was 50 and this one seems to have more of everything
After the beta they sent an email with a survey and at some point it was asking exactly about that, it was on purpose for sure
>I want these two to catfight each other
If we are going just by looks, the amazon isn't that toned, but it seems stronger, sorry but the amazonfu is going to be carrying your knocked down character back to her hut

Did you make just this or a good character too?

I respect your taste, but I don't like it the slightest

Leg Sweep is gay and dumb and boring, so Crimson Flurry.

Who plays as shortstacks?

Yes, because their tunnel vision is too bad that they can't see that one of the main reasons LW was so powerful was due to all the nerfs to enemies they made trickling down. I wouldn't say it's awful at all though, but it does seem to rely on Yokai Skills more.

i'll

I think when you're max level with all of the yokai shift skills it will be extremely powerful but not like 'press triangle to kill boss' powerful.

I suppose if nothing else being able to supplement it with Yokai Skills, Burst Counters and having access to Yokai Shift will help it out. But still if you want that kind of moveset you should really just use Tonfa.

10/10 taste

I think one of my favorite changes about Nioh 2, at least based on demos, is that human bosses no longer go into full living weapon mode and instead just have guardian spirit attacks that might involve living weapon.

I recently just beat the Masamune side mission in the 2nd DLC and it reminded me just how fucking cancerous fighting against living weapon mode is. I think he in particularly is just awful because le epic water pools and slash waves and virtually invincible LW transitions.

Just pick your poison with elemental stuff, fire gets those sick ass fireballs from ninja gaiden. Hope the other elements get some kind of unique spell like that.

I thought she was cute :^(

That one's based

Katanafags go home
Most boring weapon in the series

You still get guaranteed damage during their wakeup animation, at least vs yokai, idk how the effect works vs humans.

Can't wait to get my copy, hope they don't force you this time to complete the quest before summoning a friend, because that's what kept away mine from picking it up
You character is the only one in the thread that's been raped by yokais in canon and you know it

>twintails
trash

Nunchaku DLC when?

Attached: 56321348343.gif (360x270, 2.91M)

It is not mine, I am still waiting for code!

yeah you can hit them like once before they start to block out of it. but the way it was before you could hit once and final blow and still do a wakeup hit. so its a big nerf. major nerfing shit before the game even releases doesnt bode well..

name 1 (one) thing it can do that tonfas and kusarigama dont already do

Dubs and you get corona unless you post the code.

Probably. The only issue I really had with it was how significantly longer it took to build for how fast it could end, and even going heavy into building it faster still seemed to take a while. I also wasn't too keen on it ending up as just a Yokai Skill machine, since I can do that outside of Yokai Shift already, I want to use the new shit. I suppose we'll have to wait and see.
I really enjoyed that as well, but to be honest I wouldn't really mind it as much if they just didn't immediately go back into it over and over like they do on the higher difficulties on top of how they back off so rapidly. I want to fight a human, not a human larping as a Yokai, only Yoshitsugu and Hideyori pulled that off really well. If they can keep it not the focus of their whole moveset but just something that can happen and expand it (honestly having it how LCT Dark Realm works would probably work fine, as in they LW when they run out of Ki and recover/get hit, it would fit their fights much better than Yokai fights) I would be ok with it.

What would be the point when tonfa exists? Nunchuks wouldn't be able to do anything unique that the tonfa and kusa doesn't already.

yokai skills built up the shift meter a lot faster than normal gameplay does but yeah i agree it was very slow for how weak it felt

I don't think they'll have enough move variety to justify them.
I can't think of a single weapon they can add at this point outside of fantasy stuff like the glaive.
Maybe kanabo or claws/gauntlents and implement and full punching and kicking moveset.

I mean you can see how that would be a bit broken. I'd have to test just what you can do after but it probably isn't that bad if they allow you to get an iai slash off.

>stuck on Onryoki
>keep getting him low but fucking up to his quick thrash attacks

Fuck me fuck fuck

Can you do pic related with tonfas/kusa? i think not

Since Nioh 2 is all about waifus we should have the waifu weapon

I wanna play 1 some more before 2 releases, only got like 30 hours in but enjoyed it a lot.

Which is the most fun weapon in the game? Also can you respec? Can non-living weapon builds be as OP as LW builds?

>no naginatas
I want something to go with the shrine maiden outfit and the switchglaive looks dumb

Tonfa is most fun

Anyone got the comparison webms for Ki regen inside and out of Yokai Realm?

Also, 1katfag reporting. The Ki Burst followup attack and the heavy chain finisher made me coom.

At best, you'll get a spear skin.

It's honestly what I was thinking of trying, played Odachi and Dual Kat but eh, feels like I could be doing better

>shrine maiden outfit
we should not dress someone as shrine maiden with so many rapists around

PC player here. I'm thinking of posting some Nioh 1 gameplay webms. What do PC players use to record footage?

I know that you can use Web4idiots (or whatever the program is called) to convert videos to webms. But what about recording the videos themselves?

Just use shadowplay

Yeah pretty much. Everything is covered. They could do is something like a short sword type weapon + pistol which would be unique and fit some sort of playstyle. They could bite the bullet and do something like a rapier with a better focus on thrust attacks since the spear mainly has swipe attacks, it would probably be fairly easy to make a moveset for it too.

my autism is gonna rear my ugly head again once nioh 2 drops

i've only played as a faceless, average, grizzled samurai man with just 1kat, no magic or anything else except for iai quickdraw skills.

no i dont think you could do an imperative strike after. they should have time to block i think? also you say thats broken but thats what tempest/backwave ALWAYS did and STILL does even after this nerf. i honestly have no idea why they nerfed odachi when its already weaker than sword anyway.

yeah fucking same dude. sword was already godtier and yet it also got probably the best new skills overall so its even better now what the fuck

What about OBS? I'm looking at lists of the best footage recording software and some say it's OBS.

OBS is pretty easy to use. I never used anything else though. Also yes webm4retards is pretty good, just remember to use everything at your disposal to get the best quality

>1000 ki
Was that a thing in nioh 1? Felt like 200 was a lot.

they're probably gonna add that pole/nunchaku thing from NG if there's ever new weapons

I just want to cheat and be overpowered

Oh god please have things to make handcannons good

Odachi isn't weaker than 1kat at all, and it has plenty of things that are stronger than 1kat. 1kat's main advantage on the other hand was it's suite of powerful defensive options and speed, which doesn't hold up when Odachi also had a Backwave tier skill that also worked on Yokai. The nerf was heavily needed, and it can still get a full back combo instead.
They added an extra digit to the Ki values but it's still functionally the same amount. It's something mainly overlooked but I really don't like that change. The three values would have worked perfect if they hadn't changed that, with health usually being in the thousands, Ki in the hundreds and Anima in the tens.

They simply redid the numbers. 1000 ki in Nioh 2 is equivalent to 100 in Nioh 1 i'm pretty sure.

they scaled up the numbers but also scaled up the ki costs universally so in practice its nearly the same if not a little worse than nioh 1 base ki

What are you talking about? Handcannons were always amazing. If anything needs help it's rifles, there is absolutely no reason to use them since they changed it a while back so we can equip two ranged weapons, and there isn't even any rifle with a good enough effect to warrant using one anyway.

If Nioh ever had a full hand-to-hand moveset, what would you like it to have? I would love for it to have the following:

Skills:
1. Something like a shoryuken. This is pretty much mandatory for any kind of Japanese game with hand-to-hand combat in it.
2. A stomp that doesn't do much damage but does insane Ki damage in an AoE spread, sort of like that one Odachi skill.
3. A just-frame grab that can throw smaller or human-sized enemies to walls (sort of like one of Heihachi's throws in Tekken) but only knocks down larger enemies like Magatsu Warriors.
4. A rekka that allows you to combo 3-4 hits in a row, but in order to get any of the hits after the first, you have to time the button presses properly like that dual katana dual slash after the kick.

Stances:
Low Stance: Should have lots of sway-based movement like how boxers do it.
Mid Stance: Cookie-cutter all-rounder moveset.
High Stance: Every attack should be an attack you can hold to charge up to make them extra powerful.
