Has anyone played Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom?

It's on gamepass .... Anyone played this? thots?


I gave it a a bit of a whirl, nice little jrpg with some clean visuals and I like the vibe after the atmospheric, eery, alan wake 2,so this is a neat palette cleanser. I'm just wondering if it's enough for me to stick with it.

Game is kinda easy and its a typical jrpg and I'm digging the sense of adventure these types of games bring .... But not really sure if I should stick with it.

Played it 4 or 5 years ago. It’s really easy but I had a lot of fun with it. The kingdom building aspect and army battles were different and kept me engaged. I think i put like 60 hours into it

Yeah, it's kinda growing on me. The story/narrative is pretty fukkin tame and not the best, but I'm kind of digging the wholesomeness of it .... It's definitely a much needed change after AW2 lol.


Also playing on hard difficulty since normaled seemed too easy and i found out they only added difficulty options much later after release.

If it’s like the first one it’s off to a slow start, most jrpg cutscenes and dialogues pick up and finish strong. I just care enough to reach the end.

Played the first one like 10 years ago. Best thing about it was the soundtrack, IIRC. Graphics were pretty stellar, looked like a Studio Ghibli movie as a game. Never played 2.

20 hours in I'm kinda bored and will prolly drop it, the games shown its hands and I've spent more than enough time to form an opinion on it. The sidequests are all glorified fetch quests, the kingdom building while a very cool idea is kinda bloated and the real world time elements is cheap mobile game F2P mechanics.



Not even the vibe of the story (which isn't all that great to begin with like i said earlier) is enough for me to stick with it. It has a lot of cool ideas and I love the atmosphere/world but they kinda fell at the execution part.

Very nice sir! You ought to see what I’m bringing to the jrpg party. I still play physical copies on switch. And most are epic rpg. I got some old school remastereds and classics I enjoyed. I am playing The Banner Saga right now . Feels good man.
