GuestStart at the beginning. Why would you start somewhere else? It’s a joy to play through a game series to see how it evolved or devolved.

GuestFuck off, Nioh 1 is trash and you’re forced to play as a white guy

GuestYes anon. Just like you’re forced to play as a white chick in Metroid games. They’re both still good, baitbro.

listen OP, if you start 2 first and like it you’ll want to go back to 1 but then it’ll feel like shit without the extra stuff from 2 so just start 1, then go to 2. things will make more sense as well, story wise. and the dlc in 1 is ironically better than 2’s. you can skin transform into a chick early/midway if you’re a shit brain coomer

GuestNioh 1 is good, but its a gambit, many people enjoyed nioh 2 but not 1
If you are chill you will enjoy both games, there is some fan service in nioh 2 to nioh 1 too that you will enjoy if you play 1 first, both games take a lot of hours to finish, if you ever feel that nioh 1 is repetitive through the playthrough just jump into nioh 2 or else you will burn out
I played both games back to back and never got burnt out so thats that

GuestJust start with 2, Op. I regret investing time into 1 because it made me burn out on 2 faster. Nioh 2 is practically nioh 1.5, and the story is shit anyway.

GuestI’m playing Nioh 2 first. Mostly because
2 is just better, the story is whatever so no real reason to put yourself through the first game
Probably won’t play Nioh 1 because of it having less enemies stretched out and apparently worse level design. Level design in Nioh 2 is great, but I’ve killed way too many spear apes already.

GuestDefinitely play Nioh 1 first unless you get severely burnt out or something, then you’d also be fine jumping ahead to Nioh 2. It’s a much better game in most regards but Nioh 1 was still a really really great game before it came out. Still has a lot of unique levels and bossfights that 2 doesn’t have plus the story is fairly entertaining in my opinion.

GuestYou should be striving for an unlimited stat
Like unlimited stamina, strength or heart, you get one of those at 150 plus a scroll-

GuestThe more you know, thanks. Yeah I haven’t had any scroll drops with those yet. I’m in underworld level 9 I think.
What stat should I max then? I don’t like committing to one weapon type aside from 1 and 2 kat and they both need different core stats.

GuestThat’s not really a relevant question in the depths since you can use remodeling or transform stats.

I suppose you haven’t played normal dotNioh then, well now weapons drop with interchangeable core stats so you can "mod" with soulmatch a 2kat to make it heart based for example, or constitution based, or anything basically, you just need to max a familiarity of a weapon with the ">Transform Bonus (stat)" and then soul match it to your desired weapon-

Check out some main missions in dotNioh, they are actually pretty nice now with the new placement from DLC3, you will get a few surprises

GuestJust play 2. Nioh 1 is overly long and 2 is better in every way. If you play through 1 first you’ll just be sick of the gameplay by the time you get to 2.
