What goes on the mind of a creator, months before the release of a new game?
Around a series of conversations with Nioh 2 director & producer Fumihiko Yasuda, we took a glimpse in the final months of development of the game, a sequel to the worldwide success achieved to the first title he directed, released in 2017.
In addition to Yasuda, we discussed with art director Hirohisa Kaneko and sound director Yojiro Yoshimatsu, while attending voice recording session with lead actor Naoto Takenaka or taking a stop at Sony Interactive Entertainment to pay a visit to a fellow producer, Masaaki Yamagiwa, behind the Bloodborne, an iconic title in the Soulslike category.
A collaboration between Archipel and Japanese gaming media Game*Spark.

never seen a company like them embracing feedback and taking it to heart. Nioh 2 made all the right improvements. Enjoy the praise, you earned it.
Agreed!
Love the work of this team, and Archipel. Thank you for making videos like these, they are insightful and inspiring (and just darn entertaining!)
Now that I see you here, I guess it kinda makes sense to find you in a channel like this hahaha Good to see you and take care :)
一年以上経ってもう一度観させていただいてます。
得物を替えビルドも替えつつまたもとに戻ったりで未だに遊んでいますけど、
噛めば噛むほど味わい深いゲームだなと。
生放送ではおちゃらけている安田P&Dもチームをまとめ、
こういった素晴らしいゲームを完成させるクリエイターなんですよね、すごくカッコいい。
安田さん参加か不明ですがシブサワ御大がおっしゃっていたチーニン✕三国志新規タイトルでもドキュメンタリー希望します。
I'm always impressed how you guys manage to make people look really comfortable in your documentaries, like the camera is not even there.
We feel this is somehow a talent Japanese people have, remaining so natural in front of the camera.
These are the types of videos I like to see: Honest, real, behind the scenes material and nicely put together. Thanks for the English subtitles. #Nioh2 #UnleashYourDarkness
Thanks for the kind word!
English subtitles are available under the "CC" menu. Portuguese subtitles have also been made available via Community Contributions, which are also open for additional language submissions. Thanks for watching!
Hi, I would really like to contribute with some Portuguese subtitles to this video, as so to help you reach a bigger audience with Brazilian viewers, but unfortunately I can't seem to edit your English subtitles in CZcams's tool. Is there anything you can do to change that? Great video collab and thanks for your hard work!
@@subtube4748 Thank you! Community contributions are open, let us know if you face any issues!
@@cutscenes1758 I'm used to working with a textbox provided in the contribution option offered by CZcams, in which I can type in the subtitles and add them to the body of the video, edit their time length and so on. But for this one I don't have one, I can only Google translate the English subtitles baked in the video and fine tune them to Portuguese, but there are other texts in the video I'd like to translate, which the English subtitles don't cover. And I can't edit their time length. Is there anything at your end that you can do?
@@subtube4748 Understood - we can add in the parts for the other manually after you've added the Portuguese subtitles. You can send the text for these via email at sail [at] archipel.jp, thanks!
@@cutscenes1758 Thank you very much! I'll send them with time stamps as soon as I'm done.
Fumihiko has to be in charge of nioh 3 if it happens. He has such a great vision and passion
純粋にみなさん格好いいと思いました。仁王2は発売日からしていますが本当に面白いです
仁王1からの大ファンです
これからも応援してます
コメントありがとうございます！
Really cool video. It feels like we're sitting at a restaurant and talking openly -- respect.
That was the intent :)
this game kept my sanity during the lockdown here. it was released before the declaration of lockdown and i got a copy. Thank you Nioh 2
とても見ごたえのあるドキュメンタリーでした。今プレイ中ですが開発陣の顔や声が聞けてとても嬉しかったです。
ありがとうございます！
Thank you very much, i love these behind the scenes style documentaries
Thank you, glad you liked it!
I will say that Nioh 2 is one of the most enjoyable and frustrating games I've ever played. It's teaching me to really learn the mechanics because I generally like to be aggressive all the time. You can't button mash this game. No way. So strategic. Fiercely hard but completely honest and fair. I played it when it came out, but I honestly didn't truly spend time with all the different variables offered. So I started it again a week ago and I'm enjoying it like it's the first time I played it. When you play a game like Ratchet and Clank, which is so easy - you just don't appreciate your progress and it becomes boring. When you're challenged, it's all the more gratifying. Kudos!
開発者の思いとか熱意が詰まってて、面白かったです。DL版購入したので、これからゆっくり楽しみたいと思います。
ありがとうございます！
This was probably the best "behind the scenes" or "making of" I have ever seen for a video game. The way you edited this together and the way you were able to capture their thoughts and fears, made this an extremely insightful view into the process of Japanese made games and culture. Thank you for this video I throughly enjoyed it. And having purchased nioh 1 and loved it i am now going to order nioh 2 to support these talented and dedicated game developers. I can't believe I haven't done it sooner.
素晴らしいドキュメンタリー。 開発者からのすばらしい洞察。 ありがとうございました。
こちらこそ素敵なコメントありがとうございます！
Nioh 1 and 2 are some of the greatest games ever made. Nioh 1 has such a fascinating intrigue behind its development..... from being based on an abandoned Kurasawa script, to being in pre production 10 years, I only wish we could have gotten a documentary detailing the process of its development as well. Here's hoping to an eventual Inside Nioh 3 👀
Nioh 1 & 2 have one of if not the best combat systems out there. Happy for the team's success and hopefully we'll get to see an even more refined Nioh 3 from them :D
Most addictive gameplay I have ever experienced awesome satisfying an deserves way more recognition than it got I still come back to this over any other game to help the new upcoming players
I cannot believe this was over 2 years ago. I guess time flies by when you're having fun because I still play this game to this day and continue to learn new things about it all the time. This could be my favorite game ever, easily high up there on my list of favorites.
I missed Nioh 1 completely but I've dedicated over 250 hours now into Nioh 2. Learning rhe mechanics and helping other players! Love the game and this video is awesome, thank you for showing this to me!
The beginning was an interesting departure from the usual style, while the rest was just classic Archiple goodness at its peak. Thank you guys :)
Thanks for the kind word!
Team Ninja you've reached the Pinnacle of Nioh with 2 Congratulations on Crafting this Masterpiece!👍 You are on my good devs list and I look forward to your new ps5 IP
Thanks for the behind the scenes look at the game. Hopefully you'll do the same for Nioh 3 and whatever the new IP ends up being :)
Thanks for the watching, we'll see what the future is holding for us :)
I’m so impressed of so much quality that I’m speechless. Congratulations for the amazing video, now I’m really Hyped for the next one!
Thanks for the kind word!
Nioh 2 is an early goty contender. Great job.
first time in my life play 23h no stop no food no smoke from 1987 ...from my first old pc i have.
just water.... amazing game thanks all.
Nioh 1 is one of my favourite games of all time. After watching this video, I can't wait even more for nioh 2 to come on pc. You guys did an amazing job to make nioh 2 the best it can possibly be.
hey allright
Halfway through this game and it has been a journey made some good friends and had tons of fun! Thank you guys for creating this absolute masterpiece! 👹
I absolutely love this video and I absolutely love Team Ninja.
I doubt any of the devs is ever gonna read my comment, but I want them to know how thankful I am.
I played Nioh 1 for over 1500 hours and I will play Nioh 2 for probably the same amount of time.
The franchise Nioh has pretty much the best gameplay I ever had the pleasure of enjoying. And I played Dark Souls and Bloodbourne too.
The movement is much more fluid, the combat is much more dynamic and varied, gameplay at the highest level is like a beautiful dance and portrayal of skill.
If they were to ask me how Nioh 3 should look like, I could only give them pointers.
Build upon what was done well.
The gameplay for Nioh 1 and 2 have been AMAZING.
The story in both was great but I feel like in Nioh 2 it's been even better than in Nioh 1.
The graphics are one of the aspects that could be improved by a lot. BUT NEVER at the cost of gameplay.
Sadly, a lot of the sales are dependent on graphics, so if Nioh 3 had the great gameplay of its predecessors with superior graphics... it would sell a shit ton.
About the difficulty:
Everyone can be satisfied.
Make it easy and accessible to new players for new game.
Then make it harder for NG+.
And then make it much much harder for NG++
Way/Dream of the Demon is where the core of the game should really start to shine. Improving on builds, perfecting skills and memorizing enemy movement sets...
Boss rush missions like Marobashi/The Tournament/Return of the Gourd MUST be in the game for the veterans. Make them optional and things are fine.
The music and sound in Nioh 2 was also a big improvement over the first one.
I don't know where a Nioh 3 could take us, but don't be afraid of trying new stuff while keeping the core intact.
I loved PvP Skill in Nioh 1, it definitely adds a lot of longevity to the game.
But seriously, the one thing I love the most is how they are in such close communication with the playerbase, and how they always ask for feedback.
I wish all developers did that.
The Nioh series are my all time favorite games, so many hours already on both games and still enjoying them a lot, I think I will only stop playing Nioh 2 when Nioh 3 releases :)
Me too bro 💙
great works, great team
Again, an outstanding behind the scenes interview! You guys are top notch in the (games) documentary game!
Keep up the great work!
No one else keeps their interviews so honest and insightful.
And good luck to Team Ninja, hope you achieve your goals with this game!
Thank you for the kind word!
Great work, as usual. Do you do your own music? Can we DL? It so ethereal, it takes me away. I love it.
These guys deserve so much more love. and the fact that they went to talk to the BLOODBORNE PRODUCER before launch shows the amount of love and respect they have. Damn. Incredible. Love Nioh and Team Ninja!
Amazing video!!
Thank you!
Oh wow never saw the secondary channel. Good content as always
仁王開発スタッフのみなさんのお話も超興味深かったけど…竹中さんの収録もスゲーww
And yet another fantastic video documentary. Extremely insightful and interesting video.
Great work 👏
Glad you enjoyed🙏
Thanks for your hard work.
I'm playing NIOH 2 right now, it's super fun
very nice
Thank you!
Great work. The dedication these studios put in is truly inspiring. Always important to have a person with a clear vision at the top. Someone who can trust others to perform at their hghest level
Incredible work! Enjoying every bif of Nioh 2
Thank you!
Fantastic Documentary
Loving the game so far, could become my fav Team Ninja game yet.
Is the music track at 32:16 original?
Name please, if it isnt
Loving the game guys, thanks for the behind the curtain peak
Thank you🙏
Congratulations to all who made Nioh 2.
Its a masterpiece. Game of the generation.
Thank you!
Thank you for the hardwork
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic work. There is a lot to unpack after watching this. I definitely think it's a pity that the sound director Yoshimatsu and Art Director Kaneko weren't pushed a bit harder in the west, they absolutely deserve more spotlight for their work. But it's great to see that Yasuda is aware of this importance and works towards this exposure.
Nioh 2 is such a great game, and I really hope the team goes on to do even more cool things!
thank you for this beautiful games, one of the best in this generation
Amazing! All the best!
this really is a great work.
I love this video and the work you do on this channel.
People who so rudely call the game 'Nioh 1.5' make me think they might be blind to the work and passion that went into the sequel from everything to the brand new plot, the amazing character creator, the rich environments that actually tell a story, the beautiful yokai design, all the updated character and enemy animation, as well as the vibrant and haunting soundtrack. Nioh 2 is a master class.
with " time attack" they mean "speedrun" right?
Yes
Good job for Nioh 2, thanks to all the team who have worked on !
I cannot applaud them enough, Fumihiko, Kaneko, Yohimatsu and the entire dev team at Team Ninja, Nioh and Nioh 2 are gems, truly. Having over 1k hours in Nioh and almost 200 in Nioh 2, I have great respect for devs such as TN who are passionate about their projects and take community feedback into account. Us as players need to be decent even when it comes to delivering feedback. I hope this leads to great things for Nioh and Team Ninja as a whole
Very interesting. What is the music at 1:28?
thx for video .lock inside :)
Thanks for watching!
They made a magnificent game.
i loved nioh 2
ATOMIX. MEXICO ITS HERE!. Great video and a pleasent surprise! (BB)
Glad you liked it!
bring me NG 4.. however, this was a interesting documentary.
Thank you! Many people inside Team Ninja are conscious that the public has its hopes high for NG4 :)
Congrats for the great work Yasuda, Kaneko and Yoshimatsu. I loved Nioh and can't wait to play the second game once it comes to PC. I wish you more people will acknowledge you as the authors who stand behind Nioh and Team Ninja future games as for Taro and Hashino works.
Anyway, I'd like to play yet another NG game for my time being on Earth, so hopefully Ninja Gaiden 4 is in your short-term future plans... It's been 8 years already since NG3, and my hands are craving for more Ryu and Hayane (Yaiba was complete garbage, no offense).
I bought Yaiba for $3, It is really bad...NG3RE was the last good one
Let me just add this to my favorites😁
Thanks, hope you'll give it a full watch!
more more more!!

me encanta Nioh sobertodo Nioh 2
Man I'm just commenting on every video to help you guys out !
Thanks for feeding the algorithm :)
Nioh 2 is a masterpiece!!!
Одобряю
Благодаря!
Archipelのチャンネルと併せて見させて頂きました。これからも楽しみにしています。
20:07 lol 🤣🤣
I enjoyed both games immensely, but as a fan of the games, I am FAR more concerned with simple balance changes than anything else, including the art and direction of the game.
For example, why would any Red attack from an enemy be shorter than the duration of your move plus the animation for countering? It makes no sense and runs entirely counter to the design of Nioh 2. Getting caught in animation times kills more characters than any boss in this game. No Red attack should be un-counterable. And, if you are mid attack on most things you can't do a darn thing about the Red attack... Slightly too far away? Enemy facing the wrong way? Low on Anima? Nope. No counter for you.
How about we balance up other weapons or down the magic ones?
Unlike Nioh 1, where the single sword users ruled, Nioh 2's endgame is 75 percent Magic weapon users. So much weapon diversity and you have to intentionally pick a weaker weapon weapon/move/buff/debuff archetype if you wanted to try anything else. The strongest buffs, debuffs, AND weapon damage is on ONE weapon type that also has the best move set?!?!?!?!
75 percent of Soul Cores are entirely unused. It's Kasha or GTFO for most players.
Nioh 1 had the big issue where in anything but High stance, you didn't even have the damage to kill things in the later difficulty. Nioh 2 addressed that in a good way but it's still bad.
Nioh 2 has too many enemies with I-Frame dodges, then some enemies that exclusively dodge or aoe stun. Looking at you bird lady.
Human enemies block too much. Like waaaay too often. If you do 108 in the Underworld without naturally gravitating towards a spam attack to break Ki, you've likely not enjoyed your journey. Counter skills in Dual Sword/Sword are super cool but the vast majority of the game is Yokai, so it's kinda pointless learning a moveset and stance for such a small portion of the game. It completely invalidates half of the Sword and Dual Sword trees. Again, much easier to spam attack Quickdraws than learning an entire counter system for 1 enemy out of a few hundred.
So Yosuke Hayashi did not work on this game?
Yosuke Hayashi is credited as general producer for Nioh 2.
@@cutscenes1758 Thank you!
fornite sucks.love japanese
The difficulty is artificial and the loot system is rubbish that only serves to kill the bosses with a single blow after +100 hours of farming, which completely betrays the style of game it tries to imitate, the grace of this genre does not is to feel powerful.
Recycling was already ridiculous in the first installment, here it is much worse and look it was difficult...
They are a mediocre studio with a good setting.
Sounds like you're salty that you're bad at the game LMAO
The fact you are here commenting shows how pathetic you are. Go make a video on Nioh 2...oh wait you haven't finished the game nor do you have it.
Mediocre is Yoko Taro games broken and bugged as hell
Terrible, uninspired level design. If you are going to make nioh 3, hire better game designers! learn how to build environments from sekiro.
Terrible? Uninspired? This is not Code Vein buddy, and From Software should learn with Team Ninja how to make a great combat right?
Sekiro sucks
Oh shit a typical soft fanboys, you must be really depressed at your life sir
@@tomlong7619 From Software is good but a bit overrated. I'm excited for Japan Studio making a new 3D Castlevania and Yamagiwa is involved. It will be interesting to see between Yamagiwa, Iga and Shutaro Iida what they can come up for ideas together. From Software partnership ended after Deracine, so I think Yamagiwa wants new challenge even if fans ask about Bloodborne 2 and will never get it because Miyazaki refuse to work on sequels.
Subhuman can't realize that the settings are completely different.
