play this game enough and that shit is second nature.. and required to beat the game really took me 100 hrs to beat this game when it came out and i didnt struggle on any part for long
Yokai shift was my favorite part of the game! It was so satisfying to counter an enemy and stagger them, fit in some hits then perform a finisher. I loved the effect and the sound design of it too, had this heavy impactful feel to it.
@@drakocollins960 yes infact I ended the whole game including all dlc with brute only brute is very nice but if u want any other option go for phantom these 2 are best
I really hated Living Weapon in Nioh 1. It was incredibly OP, it was immensely binary in its use, and it felt completely tacked on. Yokai Shift felt really weak for some time - until I realized that not only do you get stupid amounts of anima, you also get the different benefits from the 3 forms AND the enhanced finishers. I love it.
The only cool thing about Living Weapon is how William summons the guardian spirit and each weapon has a unique animation when activating it. I agree it is a bit boring and easily abtainable. Yokai Shift is not as powerful but is also a lot more fun and requires more knowledge to use effectively.
tbh living weapon had its fun unique uses, just no one cared about them. But for example, the hi-nezumi instant lw build was really fun, it charged imediately, you could basically use it as a part of your regular moveset. Especially with the spear, and celestial spear and wild spear attacks. And it even restored your onmyo every time. Plus it didn't have op damage so you could still enjoy the fights.
00:06 - 00:10 was such a badass moment. I never thought to do that until I watched this video. It's always fun to learn cool new ways to avoid attacks.
You can also hold strong attack to absorb the amrita into your weapon, increasing your damage and adding back to your gauge (It's increased even more if you have the secret skills from Otakemaru with pants).
@@tengkuhafiz4174 did the developers say it was the last one? i heard that they werent going back for the next game but never that it was the last one forever
@@BARDI77 I want you to stop and think about what you just said "Not going back" they literally said that they had fun making it etc but this is going to be the last one for along time Given TNs history your kids will be uploading nioh 3 before you play it. Nothing's ever set in stone but id treat this like tes6 and gta 6, a myth
if you love dark souls or anything like that you would ADORE this game, its like DS but on steroids... its super duper fun... you should try it out... in case you missed the comment before me, its nioh 2, and now its 35% on sale on steam...
I hate to be that guy...but no Y'all missed that train nioh 1 and tn made sure it set sail for good There are too many non yokai shift builds that put it to shame and when you run into them youre going to wonder why you even bothered (yes ik ys was op in nioh 2 for a while, its since been nerfed to hell) My ys hits hard than a bitch too, I hardly ever use it though why? Because my weapon can potentially hit even harder than it and nothings worst than try harding like that just to watch a suzune transformation damn near 1 shot what you just did all that for There are way better builds in nioh 2, ys is fun as hell yes Good enough to warrant going back to making builds for it? Nahhh fuck all that shit
@@clap1999 Good call, notice that the difficulty of the first Nioh, it is definitely harder on the first playtrough than the sequel due of the battle system mechanics, also due of the recent Elden Ring release, the game has submit a significant drop of the amount of players. Although Nioh 2 it is still fairly active nonetheless, so if you cannot find anyone to play with, I am a souls like die harder veteran myself, just let me know it anytime. Have fun yourself P.S. I play them on PS btw.
I’ve finished both of them and i can tell you that nioh is CRIMINALLY underrated i just don’t get it. You’ll get So many hours out of it it’s one of those games you don’t regret buying
@@SamuraiKensei276 I had this show up on my recommended because I was talking to a friend about Nioh 2 earlier and told him not to buy it because it’s dead. But now I want to play it again. Just tired of grinding for gear. I stopped playing before they made any major releases in the game like legendary sets or something like that
I say the same thing sometimes about Warframe, i like the build variety, the trading and the community of the game, but sometimes i hate the grind in it, especially when you farm some Warframes (Khora and Grendel comes to my mind).

That was badass
Right that’s literally all I was thinking of

Wtf is that buff or item passive?? No way that’s base movement
@@Ihavehadmanynames7779 probably just the base dodges of low stance, either that or a twin axe skill
@@guydooeinfinity he's using the evasion cancel, LastToLoad has a video on how to do it
I had no idea you could change spirits mid-shift
You can but don't it's take your half yokai shift for change

I would take LW over shift any day of the week. Yokai shift is just as broken, just much later in the game.
Living weapon is op? Still struggling to play Nioh with it bruh
@@mridulsagar4106 Yes it is extremely beyond broken
That’s one of the Cleanest Dodge sequences I’ve seen since isshin’s Sword Saint combo, such a fun fight.
I keep saying it! I keep saying it and nobody seems to listen. Yokai shift is the truth lol

Nioh has one of the best action rpg combat systems i have ever played. Stances take it to the next level
damn I beat the game months ago but The combat system in this game is the best I've ever played
0:06
Ultra instinct theme starts playing
It’s weird seeing this game without the damage numbers lol
For anyone that is thinking about trying nioh, please do it is such a good and underrated game. Hell both 1 and 2 are
You take Nioh 2 game play to the next level this is insane 😂
Bros got ultra instinct lmao
Yokai shift = 100 hits
Living Weapon - 1 blow
1 blow = 100 hits
@@mavvynne444 and take less than a second, yokai shift more than a minute
Yokai Shift seems to recover itself a lot during use. What causes that? Mine always lasts so little, it doesn't have that self sustain.
Absorb Amrita with R1+R2 to extend the gauge
@@UnknownZealot77 What would that be in kb&m terms?
@@RJMazz47 ki pulse + yokai button (button you hold down for Yokai abilities and burst counter)
You can also hold strong attack to absorb the amrita into your weapon, increasing your damage and adding back to your gauge (It's increased even more if you have the secret skills from Otakemaru with pants).
@@RJMazz47 shift and R . This game is so hard for us Kb and Mouse players :( the controlls on pc aren’t a smooth like Sekiro
Challenged myself to a yokai shift only run and it was mad fun
Man, do you know where is the savedata of Nioh 2 in PC?
I'm literally 30 hours into the game and none of that made any sense lol. It is nice to see ill get another yokai ability !
Play 150 hours everything will make sense
i’m like a couple days new to this game, can someone explain to me what the differences between yokai shifts and yokai forms are?
This might help: th-cam.com/video/3gkwgGeMuFc/w-d-xo.html
god damn this is so clean i needa use hatchets now 😂
I miss playing this game... I'm hoping for a Nioh 3
Unfortunately this is their last in the series

whats good i have the game i have peices but never unstood how to set i tup for it to get to this point would you mind helping
Yokai Shift is the way
Yo what game is this it looks clean
Nioh 2

Your dodging is crazy powerful!
nice man
Dude got fuckin BONKED in the end
Better then elding ring
Sarutahiko is my favorite set bonus in the game.
Man really said, screw your boss music! listen to mine!
Or maybe you're just super good
Why change form mid shift, is there benefit?
Fun, mainly. I also get access to different soul cores and Yokai Shift attacks.
@@PooferLlama how to change form midshift?
awesome dodges so pretty XD

This game looks amazing and after finishing Elden I might have to get Nioh
Nioh 1 or 2? Because Nioh 1 is the best for locations, while Nioh 2 has got the best character creation, as well as the gameplay formula imho.

mmmmmm okay
from what perspective
