Abstract: Nioh took me by surprise back when it released in 2017. Due to it being stuck in development hell for several years, my expectations for it at the time were low. Seeing as it also took clear influences from Dark Souls, I expected it to be just another clo...
Abstract: Despite being originally a PS4-exclusive, Nioh 2 has a host of graphics options to play around with. While the options seem a bit bare, they're actually more than enough to be able to tinker about with, making the game quite scalable between mid-range and...
For its modest $10 price, The Tengu's Disciple is absolutely brimming with new Nioh 2 content. None of that content is groundbreaking or any more or less exceptional than what Nioh 2 already offers, but it is nonetheless an extremely worthwhile reason to...

Abstract: What makes a title action, an perfect Souls-like? To make that is perhaps its structure in the checkpoint, the system of character progression, or even its combat system exquisitely technical?Probably the answer to this question is a combination of mult...
While Nioh 2 has its own shortcomings, the game is a fantastic alternative to Bloodborne and Dark Souls. Fans of the genre will have a great time playing the game even though it does have complex systems and gameplay mechanics. If you are looking for a ch...
Nioh 2 is an impressive evolution of its predecessor, strengthening everything that was already great, while mostly leaving its already existing issues alone. Its stellar combat is elevated by the addition of Soul Cores, Burst Counters, and the ways in wh...
Abstract: The Tengu's Disciple essentially fits into Nioh 2 as a side story that takes place after the events of the main game. Your character finds a dagger at a shrine that suddenly transports them back in time to the Heian period, where they join forces with rea...
Amazing aesthetics, both in gameplay and cinematics, Lots of variety in terms of weapons, The combat itself is pretty satisfying

Packendes Kampfsystem, Spektakuläre, spielerisch wertvolle Yōkai-Skills, Vielfältige Gegner und Bosse, Abwechslungsreiches Leveldesign, Hohe Solospielzeit, Deutlich verbesserte Technik, Motivierende Charakterentwicklung...
… aber allgemein leicht überfrachtet, Yōkai-Gegner machen etwas zu viel Schaden, Spannungsarme Story, Kollisionsabfrage mit Schwächen
