For sale only $25. It has two games in box. It is cheap.

Already an owner of both games and all the dlc, I bought this to have in my collection and to support the team that made these great games. Challenging, deep combat that has qualities of the souls games mixed with the neverending loot grind of diablo.

Both games here are remastered with high fidelity, tons of customization options, deep endgames and lots to keep you busy.
I love Nioh 1, one of my favorite PS4 titles and something I've plunked almost 500 hours into. It's represented here perfectly and I love it.
Nioh 2 is a technical improvement on Nioh 1. The level design is much improved, the endgame is expanded, the weapon and combat systems are improved. That's where it ends.
The story is lackluster and a custom silent protagonist is boring. Lots going on here with historic Japanese figures and magic/mythology and your silent gimp is shoehorned into the story.
The annoying, frustrating 'challenging' mechanics are turned up to 10 here and it always overshadows any great moments the game creates.
Hey, remember how awesome it is to have one or two snipers on an unreachable ledge pelting you while you are trying to melee and enemy on the ground? How about that 5 times in a mission? On every other mission? Who thought that would be a good idea? This exact setup is probably run 100 times over the course of the main campaign.
How awesome is it to have a red haze over the zone, enter a dark realm which further muddies the graphics, and have barely discernible water hazards randomly strewn on the ground? Why can't our superhuman protagonist swim? Why does every other map have this? I love dying because I'm not squinting at the screen to see a 1 foot diameter puddle.
You know what doing the advanced dojo missions 10-20 times on cheap bosses told me? The 'hard' bosses in Nioh 2 don't develop and overarching understanding or your weapon talents, stance switching or any of the available complex mechanics Team Ninja put in. It teaches you to study minute frame count and AI quirks to exploit a boss in a cheap and simple minigame of who can cheese who. Or go level and come back when it's not overtuned.
Nioh 2 is cheap, cheap, cheap and muddies what could have been a phenomenal next gen holdover until more games come out.
Consider this a great Nioh 1 remaster with some half baked Team Ninja product tacked on.

I cant emphasize enough how much i love this franchise. I have about 500 hours split between the two games. Very steep initial learning curve but there are guide online to get you started if you are having a ton of trouble (like i did). Nioh 1 has deep customization for skills and combat. Nioh 2 improves in every aspect of the first game. The first game has the better story bit both stories are interesting. 10/10 recommend

it’s pretty good but not great. I doubt that it will ever be as good as the soulsbornekiro games. From’s level of detail and polish and everything else far surpasses anything I saw in Nioh. Nioh 2 is better though so I with the improvements they’ve made.
