Blown away by this run. Love that its a nearly glitchless run too, almost entirely just effective use of intended strategies.

[@jdozer96]

Good job, Axel! Nice of you to let that little boy commentate with you, too.

[@AxelSG]

Thanks Jdozer! And yeah, i'm glad he behaved ela13

[@TheLastPhoen1x]

You know its a "souls" game if you run around in your underwear.

[@RealH0rr0rsh0w]

Oh nice I was wondering when Nioh would show up on a speedrunning marathon. One of my favorite games of all time, an instant classic IMO.

[@nowone666]

nahh, the game's fun, but could use a lot of work, got my hopes up for Nioh 2, if that one doesnt satisfy, we still got sekiro as a guarantee :)

[@duffysullivan2794]

Yea, Nioh is my favorite PS4 game. Open world AAA games are dull by comparison.

[@nowone666]

@@duffysullivan2794 but nioh isn't really open world, is it?

[@duffysullivan2794]

@@nowone666 No that is not what I meant. Nioh is not open world at all. I play open world games like Witcher 3, Horizon ZD and to me they are kind of boring. Witcher 3 especially was like plowing through a dull novel. There have been some open world gamesI really liked, Dragons Dogma, Gothic 3 ( which is not a popular Gothic game, but I loved it ) but most open world games do not hold my interest much past the early levels. Nioh gets my blood pumping. Keeps me on my toes and keeps me challenged. That is my kind of video game! And it is so well done. Smooth animations, wicked fast frame rates, I love the art style and attention to detail, that frankly I find missing in western developed games. Japanese have an elegance to their development style that I personally have an eye for and appreciate.

[@nowone666]

@@duffysullivan2794 oh ok, yeah sure but its not like it hadnt been done better in the past by the very same company that developed it, nioh was fun but it had a lot of wasted potential, i mean for christ sake the secondary missions were boring as all hell, especially when it's the same level i already played 2, 3 times before, some bosses were cool, other were shite *cough*finalboss*cough*... my kind of game is a game that keeps me wanting to play, and sometimes nioh did the exact oposite and i just realized this reply is way longer than it needed to be so lets make it a little longer by writting some more, hey man i think FromSoftware's games are ridiculously better in every single way, even in getting your blood pumping... so... nioh 10/10 100/100 best game best game

[@duffysullivan2794]

I watched him do it, but I can't believe it! Why do I struggle so much with these bosses? Ha ha.

[@derekcampbell4209]

Practice practice practice. And execution. I know what you mean though, I’m trying these strategies and it’s still tough.

[@Crota0100]

Nice run

[@ScrubbDoesStuff]

Jesus I can't even beat Onryoki ;-;

[@mobytrice]

i quit the game after dying to umi bozi for ages.

[@Xeno455]

Here's a few tips for Umi. 1. Most Important than anything, light the 3 lanterns hidden around the stage. This will insta-kill the smaller mobs (also gives you amrita so if you fail a few times you'll get your living weapon back for free) 2. He's insanely weak to fire. 3. While you're smacking him, attacks will NEVER make you fall off ledges. So don't worry about falling off while attacking his body. As long as you don't move with the analog stick, you're fine.

[@shikyoutk6626]

I dont know if thats ever gonna be relevant for u but umi bozu can be nearly instakilled by just spamming the fire breathing masks. Just use 5-6 on him when he recovers and u win for free.

[@rinstudio]

I was stucked with the first boss after 2 hours of gameplay lol

[@miquelsubira3076]

Me 3 hours him 5min same distance

[@albert93231]

I know right lol

the dude in red kinda looks like Harry Styles

[@TheSaiyen25]

Who is the guy sitting next to him?

[@mobytrice]

Elajjaz

[@alkaAdeluxx]

you make this hard game, look so easy, but it isnt LUL :D

[@deletewin32]

This game looks so easy, but probably are`nt at all 😂

[@DeadlyDuel]

way of the wise and way of the nioh can pretty much change that. sloth talismans has shorter duration on boss on a higher difficulty so cheese strats will not work most of time.

[@matthewscully1763]

Everything 2 shots throughout the game.

[@ply159]

Coño un tio de aragon!!! Grande mañoooo!!

[@Splatpope]

greetings from belgium, I'll go kiss puigdemont for ya

[@jonathansenile4396]

STOP SAYING NIOH IS A SOULS GAME

[@WHITEWEATHER1]

What does vanilla means?

[@matthewscully1763]

No dlc

[@xxSYKOMANxx]

Saying Cat-o instead of Kay-to killed me.

[@concrete_river]

That's how you say it though, with his accent anyway

[@AxelSG]

@@concrete_river Besides the accent, I just try to pronounce every word as it should be pronounced in the according language, Kato is a japanese name so i pronounce it with those rules.

[@riplix20]

@@AxelSG wait but Japanese vowels are all pronounced one way, so it’d be more kah-to than either. E.g. Amaterasu is (ah-mah-ter-ahsu). If we used your “correct Japanese pronunciation” it becomes (ay-may-ter-aysu) which is just completely wrong. If yer gonna gripe at least get it right.
