This game is not as good as the first nights of azure. The combat is a embarresment compaired to the first one. Combat in the first has 4 different weapons with 4 different servent set up that could be changed on the fly that allowed you to transform into 5 different demon forums. Nights of azure 2 has different weapons but you sacrifice your ability to traverse a level. Let me explain that, there are 4 different …

Do you like anime? Yes? Do you like lesbians? Yes? Are you fine with acceptable gameplay that isn't great but isn't bad either? Get the game. Otherwise don't. Edit After 100%'ing the game The ending is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fantastic.

I'm happy I tried this game out. My thoughts as someone new to the series (also my first GUST game). This has to be the best written yuri/gothic story I've seen in a game. Relationships between the girls feel interesting, charming, and crafted with great care. It certainly has fanservice, but the more prominent ingredient is how characters interact and develop. The buildup of these relationships has twist and turns …

So here goes. Pros: - ran perfectly for me, no port issues here - great music - enjoyable atmosphere - easy-to-learn combat - variety in companions - time limit gameplay Cons: - Limited variety in enemies - Only…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Normally I'd blast the game for being a lazy port, but the standards of the entire industry just went down the toilet. Now that AAA developers are selling F2P garbage as full priced games let's discuss why this game is superior to trash being shoveled out right now: 1: No microtransactions. No loot boxes, no cash shop, no in-game adds. It has none of that F2P BS. 2: All DLC is included as part of the base game. A lazy port has workarounds, but the only cure for greed is a boycott. For the…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →sadly i cant recommend this game. story is good, gameplay is fun, but the moon bs just ruined the whole game for me. its like majoras mask, but far worse. when i buy a new game i like to explore and take my time, but this game just punish u by it, so u have to rush the story to complete it. it wouldnt be such a big deal when u would keep atleast quest progress and exp/money u gained after restarting chapter, but no its just a plain wipe of all the progress. on ng+ u atleast have unlimited days,…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I only cant give this game a negative review bc of my nostalgia for nights of azure 1. the first game was infinitely better than this one in every way, but this sequel still has a few similarities with the original. it was really disappointing to see such a huge downgrade to the servan system and the combat, everything became much more repetitive and tiring, and theres constantly a special attack animation where you just keep pressing the same button over and over to deal more damage, honestly…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well, they added new features and more characters in one game now. We could have our own waifu of choice now. You could also change outfit of all playable character. Gameplay pretty much like the first one, typical KOEI hack and slash with some RPG elements. Now before you buy, as a friendly warn, this game use time limit on the 1st playthrough. If the time limit is over, then you got game over. You are forced to play it first with the time limit feature before you could even turn it off on…

Well, let me tell you that there are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. The game baits you into thinking that it has what it really isn't. Even the writers who did Mass Effect Andromeda write better relationships than those who did this game. Also, translation is amateurish. Whoever translated this game wrote the script without matching the characters' personalities. There are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's a great sequel of one of the best hack n' slash games I 've played, along with NieR: Automata. The game's resolution can be changed to 4K through settings (pc local files), the characters and the story are awesome, gameplay and music are very good and in general it's a great game for a player who likes this type of games. Surely recommended for a price around 40-45 USD/EU, which I believe is a good price for the players and for the developers. (experienced 1-2 random crashes, so the port…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Nights of Azure 2 is a very rough and an ill-implemented game that tries to do way too much while giving the players two time constraints in a very short game that really erodes the overall experience. Given the game's demographic, the characters are decent enough. However, the gameplay has taken a huge hit. I did find some improvements, such as the lily system's combat portion and the Striker Servans. However, I can't help but feel a lot of the other enjoyable aspects of the combat have not…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As much as I love playing Nights of Azure, I want to support its second entry in steam though as every KT port it only has less graphical settings available such as resolution and depth of field, so far NoA2 pretty much an okay port from my end since I'm not having any issues and the game runs in constant 60 frames but suffers from 720p resolution movies and minor stutters during cutscenes but it's not that all game breaking or anything. And by all means they literally put more FANSERVICES to…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The grind for the basic true ending takes longer than playing through the entirety of the main story. Overall the game has bland characters and an unfleshed out story.

I just finish 1st clear, wil take time and play more. ------------------- Update I just finish 2nd clear and see the 2nd ending. About 68 hours for all,…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Amazing game. Nights of Azure 1 was very underwhelming to me but this improved on nearly every aspect, including the waifu factor. The main character is gorgeous and all the characters are extremely well designed and acted. This is probably one of the better Anime style games that I have ever played. If more games were like this game, gaming would be in a better place. The music score is enchanting and simply wonderful. I would rate it just underneath Nier Automata level genius. The game has at…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A game with an interesting ARPG mechanic that drags on for too long and a story that is not told properly. Night of Azure 2 have the ingredients to become a great game. It just wasn't put together correctly, making it mediocre, even compared to the game that came before. The characters are interesting and well designed, but we barely learn anything about them, even with an entire game mechanic based on getting to know your comrades better, you learn nothing important, only superficial…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Port This port is decent, I have experienced no lag or crash while playing this game. Gameplay An improvement on the previous Nights of Azure game. The combat has more depth, meaning it’s not all button mashing. Game mechanics such as combos help add some variety during battles and therefore make the battles more interesting. A lot of people don’t like the time limits on Gust games, however I have always found them to enhance the game by providing focus to the games plot. It not only makes…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played the first Night of Azure and it was amazing, it has a chill, jazzy, and cool feeling yet action style vibe, played Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon and it's still have its vibe even with the BGM for the hotel just like the 1st game, and its gameplay is also better, along with character conversation, graphics, animation, new character upgrade feature as well as Servan upgrade feature which became better, intruiging and the story. With all that, it would remind you of playing…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Speaking as someone who enjoyed the first game My initial impressions of this game were mixed. The story feels like more of the same, with Aluche needing to defeat the Moon Queen or sacrifice the priestess. I did like how they invested more in cutscenes for some scenes, and the game's introduction is quite fun to play. ✦Combat:The combat animations are a bit slower compared to the first game, but you get used to it as you keep playing (though I still prefer the first one in this regard).…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A simple and somewhat grindy, but thoroughly enjoyable ARPG. Lots of callbacks to the first game, so worth playing that first. Very disappointing not to have seen a third in this series. (Yes, the DLC is worth paying for - it's essentially cut content, but cut content you won't want to miss.)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →6 hours in and I just couldn't force myself to play anymore. I really enjoyed the first one and was hoping they'd improve and expand upon all the concepts, mechanics and story from the previous entry. Unfortunately, a lot of the game's content is just a carbon copy of what the first did but repackaged with a less interesting story, characters, and a LOT of repetitive and time wasting side quests. The few new things that the game tries to do have very little impact in the way of providing any…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →an overall decent game, decent story and decent combat. it does have a timer (much like Zelda Majoras mask) which was a bummer for me and some may like it. the game expects you to play through more than once as u wont get the true ending on your first playthrough but has NG+ its a little hard recomending it at its current price $84.95 AUD but deffinity worth getting when theres a sale on (that's what i did)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Garbage - Couldn't even be bothered to get the game to run correctly, it crashes whenever i try and open the settings from the launcher with a stupid Initialization of DirectX Failed Couldn't find a Device, then if i press start the peice of ♥♥♥♥ will only open the JP Version so i can't read or understand the junk.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It feels shorter than the first one the storyline especially.. The First game was focused on the main character arnice alot and did not dealt with raising your bonds or lilly rank with others except her childhood friend. Of course the achievements are so much easier than the first game. I still feel the first game was more fun for some reason maybe is because it allowed the main character to merge with their servants and transform. This second game have no transformation only servants evolve…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great game with nice combat and girls! Besides the crashing and the bad port, the game is great, but short. I would recommed it, but Koei Tecmo should step up their game with a decent port, and fix the current issues before launching a new game to steam. I would recommend buying the game during a sale, because 60 quid isn't worth it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its an inprovment in everyway on the first Nights of Azure its visually better gamplay wise. Although the audio can be iffy at times like sound effects just not going off. Oh and its the story of lesbians lots of lesbians like im not joking a real f@#$ ton of them and its awesome. if your down for a bit of a grind and some intersting characters then grab this one. Man so many hot chicks if your down with waifus then this game is up your ally.

You will not regret it. Now being more specific, this game have some relation with nights of azure 1 but is not profound can not necesary to had been play. This game battle system is the typical hack',n slash with the classic attacks, with two defense commands 1 defense 1 evade, and the usual jump-special…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →don't buy this game, it keeps crashing when i upgrade Al or servant lol
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →There's a difference between natural yuri and forced yuri. The first Night of Azure is the former, and this sequel is the latter. Story: 2/5 Gameplay: 4/5
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It does some things better and some worse than the first game. The graphics and fan service are a lot better but the music and character interactions are a bit worse than the first imo. The combat is pretty jank but so was the first games. Needing certain servans to get to treasures isn't so bad cause you can reload pretty fast if you brought the wrong one and you will need to explore each area more than once anyway. The time limit really isnt that big of a deal to me. Just like with some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not really worth $60 US, grab this on sale if you like JRPGs/anime related games. Overall 7/10 or so, not entirely a bad game but there are better things to play out there before you get to this. Pros: - Music is great like the first game - Game feels a lot more polished than the first one port-wise. There's finally an exit option omegalul. - Everything looks far more prettier than the first game - Combat feels a lot smoother than the first game Cons: - The limit in the number of nights per…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This one is a sequel to the first game, although the connection between the two is only small except for the main character's appearance from the first game. Pretty much an enjoyable game if you are looking for a decent storytelling other than yuri and so on to kill time (also has hints of bit of cliche moments which is normal). Has three difficulty modes you can challenge yourself with, also with each cutscenes that you may see by choosing a specific lily all the way to the end (Like ending…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →To recommend or not to recommend: As I only have one choice I will. But it really falls short from the first game. Arnice, and the captain have better looking weapons. The world is more instanced vs open. The bosses are weaker. You don’t get as attached on the first play through. It does hack and slash, I am not sure if it is my pc or not, but feels slow and clunky. It is an ok game but nowhere as good as the first. Even the hero is a cross between someone’s Frankenstein and a woman…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →THE POWER OF LESBIANS COMPELS YOU! In all seriousness, I feel the game overall is great. Good, but not great combat mechanics, loveable characthers that I loved getting invested in, a good but short story that kept me intrested until the end, and some fun DLC that adds to the good story. 8/10 would reccomend!
