The final demo of NiOh 2 is now available for PS4 in the PS Store, and as I always do in these cases, I strongly recommend that you download it before the end of the trial period. Koei Tecmo shows me that the fears that the first beta aroused me were totally unfounded and falls in love again with a delivery that not only reaches the original game, but also promises to overcome it by far.
Few things are more beautiful than that a game forces you to swallow your words, and more when those words were very pessimistic and the game is shown better than you expected. A few months ago, after the first beta, I loaded the inks against a NiOh 2 that felt weak, twisted and inconsistent with a fanservice gameplay. Now, after the final demo, I cannot help but retract and confirm that NiOh 2 is everything I expected from the Koei Tecmo franchise.
NiOh 2 delves into the foundations of the original title with its own charisma and personality that take it one step further from the referents of the genre without losing an iota of what made it great in its first installment. Embedded in a new character with a character manager that is a real pickle, we will face the Yokai again in the sengoku period of the war states. The action takes place after the death of Oda Nobunaga, with Toyotomi Hideyoshi in power against the advance of Tokugawa Ieyasu, offering an alternative story in which our character will have special prominence.
More NiOh than ever
After hitting the system of transformations, combos and cons, NiOh 2 shows in its final demo a great tuning work that adjusts the control of these new possibilities eliminating what made them feel superfluous or too affordable in the previous beta. Koei Tecmo thus offers a much better profiled product that does not give up its difficulty but is much more bearable for its variety with very different moments as we are in the real world or the world of others, in which the yokai become beings ultra-powerful
I haven't been playing the final demo of NiOh 2 for 24 hours and I already declare myself a fan, very fan of Koei Tecmo's work in this new installment. Kou Shibusawa has achieved it again with a title that flees from what seemed ugly in the first beta and reinforces all its strengths with a much better designed scenario that invites exploration and combat. After getting through the first fights in the forest, overcoming the rice paddies and squeezing the castle and its grounds thoroughly, I have reached a final boss who has forced me to start again changing my Odachi for the twin katanas and learn how to manage them try again
New yokai weapons and blessed weapons join new equipment, the possibility of invoking yokais to our advantage thanks to the badges and various cons taking advantage of the transformations of our character, which make NiOh 2 something really appetizing. The way he manages to dominate the game by getting unimportant parts to become a walk based on practice, rejoins his system of combos, his postures and his approach to combat to delight, once again, the We fell in love with your first delivery. Pay attention to me and download the final demo. It is pure sugar.
