it's worth sticking with the kind of crappy DLC bosses in order to fight the final DLC boss

huh? I thought, while the worst DLC level is definitely the first level of the second DLC, the bosses just got progressively worse with the last DLC where the final one is one of the few video game bosses that made me legit angry and put me on tilt. It took me almost 40 minutes of attempts to beat it and I rarely felt like it was my own fault rather than some poorly telegraphed attack partially owed to having a partner in that fight, that throws off patterns, making it harder to learn tells.

Like, I found this boss so offensively bad that I have to ask you: Did miss something? Did I miss that one simple trick than nine-tailed foxes hate? Or did I just started sucking on both of my playthroughs when I reached that fight?

Admittedly, the second time I reached the fight it was part of a very long session I streamed and I was probably drained by the time I reached it. I just don't want to post the VODs because I really did get salty.

In general I think Nioh is full of bad design with some encounters, although most of them are relegated to sub-missions so I don't mind as much. They were definitely on the right track, though, even though there were fights I really hated it's still one of the best games that came out in its year and well worth playing.

Nine Tailed Fox was frustrating yeah but I didn't hate the fight, I guess I just didn't have too many problems with it personally, I don't really know what to tell you. There's not like any super cool exploit or trick I used, I'm just good at reading attacks, dodging, and swinging my battleaxe lol

In that post I was referring to the Secret Final Boss that unlocks after you beat the Fox.

I went in on axes in Ni Oh 1 and it was great, really makes you learn the timing of every enemies moves though, because you are going to be the slowest thing in the zone most of the time lol

The biggest concern with choosing whether or not you want to get Ni Oh 2 for the PS4 or for the PC is if you want to play it in a week or play it in 8 months.

And I'll do both because I'm fiscally irresponsible.

I'm waiting for reviews and for some buddies to pick it up before I decide if I want to double-dip but I liked Ni Oh 1 so much I probably will end up doing so
