Got severely obliterated as advertised, not disappointed in that field
Got severely obliterated as advertised, not disappointed in that field. What I didn't expect was the 100+ hour campaign, with about 80 bosses and a billion ways to defeat them. With the amount of variety and depth you can dive into, and for how brutally challenging it all is, I'm surprised Nioh 2 doesn't have more attention nowadays. Let me put it this way: Nioh 2 is like endurance training at the gym. It only gets heavier and more unbearable as it goes on, testing your resolve and will to go the extra mile. At any point, you could stop. You could give up, say "I did enough, that's my limit", and move on. Or, you could climb that metaphorical mountain, taking all the weight you can, working your way to the third expansion, and the final boss. And if you beat that final boss, the absolute bringer of nightmares that has awaited you for the entire game, it'll feel like the weight of a planet has been lifted off your shoulders. And that's the fun of Nioh 2; the journey, the uphill battle, and that payoff. Now, is the story and world-building that amazing? Objectively, no, but I didn't mind it though. Felt like a Sengoku period Johnny Mnemonic or something, and as someone who actually likes that film for some reason, the story had it's own janky charm. tl;dr: Good, buy it if you want. IF YOU DARE

Two caveats about the port:
Two caveats about the port: 1. Many people seem to be having FPS drop issues. Reducing the effects quality seems to fix this for many, but not for all. Personally, I'm not having this issue, but it's something to be aware about. 2. The Keyboard+Mouse support has two big issues. First, the lock camera is basically unusable - moving your mouse sideways change your locked target, and you're going to do this by accident all the time while fighting. Second, the game doesn't display prompt icons with kb+m keys, only XBox or PS controller icons. It does support keybinding for most actions, at least. If you don't suffer from the performance drop issues and you prefer or don't mind playing with a controller, then this game is easy to recommend. Very fun and fluid combat, weapons handle pretty different from one another, quite a few different special moves, etc. Though be aware that it's hard to the point that it might feel cheap at times.
