Nioh 2: The Complete Edition arrives on Steam on February 5th.Character Builds for Nioh are character and equipment recommendations that focus your character on solo and cooperative play against regular AI enemies and yokai. I can purchase the DLC over on the PS4, and apart from some FPS drops, I'll effectively have cobbled together Nioh 2: The Complete Edition - Lite. Starting over again is going to be an insurmountable task, and it's not like this new version transforms the game, or adds an exclusive new region to explore, or any new bosses to fight.
NIOH COMPLETE EDITION BUILDS PS4
Nioh 2 is bloody hard, and while the Complete Edition contains DLC that I'm missing, and has all these visual delights, I can't part with my beloved PS4 save. I think part of the problem is that I'm already too far gone. Frame drops on the PS4 can jolt you out of periods of intense concentration, but there was no such jarring here.īut apart from these snazzier, PC-specific sliders and toggles, I don't think there's much here that's going to sway those who aren't fans of Nioh 2 in the first place, or even for people like me who've poured a lot of time into the PS4 version. This is where that framerate came in handy on a practical level, as it meant that I never missed a beat. You need to be aware of the enemy's combat cues, for example if they're gearing up for a wide swing, so you know whether you've got enough Ki to dash away, or if they're suddenly about to drag you into the Yokai Realm, for a titanic clash where they've got home team advantage.
Just as in the optimisation of kit, precision is everything when it comes to Nioh 2's combat. I opted for the latter and it worked like a dream. Oh, and there are keyboard and mouse options, as well as controller options, of course. But there are enough options here to accommodate budget PCs, so I wouldn't worry if you're rocking dustier components. My rig is fairly capable, meaning I didn't need to tone down any graphics settings, either. In stark contrast, never once did I experience a drop in my frame rate, playing this on PC. To give you an idea of the difference visually: on my PS4 copy of Nioh 2 I'll experience fairly frequent frame rate drops if I pan my camera around a busy environment, and the occasional hitch if I'm engaged in a fight with a gigantic chipmunk with a sword for a tail. And the ingredients are, thanks to the aforementioned framerate, super buttery. Like a Hello Fresh box the size of a basking shark, you've got everything you need to sustain you for months. Having said all this, if you're interested in giving Nioh 2 a go, or if you're already a mega fan and you want the absolute bestest experience, then the Complete Edition is for you. If you get mangled to death by a demonic horse wielding a bloodied hacksaw, it's your own fault. So strap on your Sengoku period garb and get out there, pal. This might sound daunting to someone who's never tried Nioh 2, and that's because it is. In a weird sort of way, the Nioh 2 community reminds me of Formula 1, such is the extent to which everyone's fine-tuning weapon and armour builds in an endless pursuit of the optimal. Great significance lies in the gear you're equipping, the stats you're boosting, and the materials you're hoovering up. I'd say it trades the intricacy of the environments you navigate in a Souls, for greater complexity in character customisation.
On first glance it's easy to mistake it for a Souls game wearing Japanese garb, but this isn't the case at all. For those unfamiliar with Nioh 2, it's a so-called "soulslike" (that is to say, "like a Dark Souls game") which further dubs itself as "masocore", which is just a fancy term for being crushingly difficult.
