Aragami 2 armor sets free#
There, you are free to roam about an area and get the job done. Head to the notice board, pick one, then travel through a portal. Missions feel weirdly similar to Monster Hunter in the way they begin. Wherever you fall, there’s no denying that running across rooftops and dispatching bad guys is where this game is at its most thrilling. Maybe that’s not a good thing, or you wanted an epic tale of death, deceit, and redemption. Honestly, I was so enthralled with disposing of enemies that I didn’t even pay much attention to it. It becomes more of a set-up for why you do what you do. Generally, if you enjoy the gameplay so much, it doesn’t matter, right? In Aragami 2’s case, the rivalry between the Kurotsuba and Akatsuchi does little to keep you engaged.

Sometimes a game is such a pleasure to play that you forget about the woefully generic story. At least, as a silver lining, you don’t need to know what happened in the first game to enjoy this one. It’s all just shallow set dressing to justify why you’re throat-punching armored guys around the countryside. Despite Aragami 2 sewing compelling seeds involving themes of spiritualism, the story never blooms into anything meaningful in the 15-hour long campaign. It seems a rival clan known as the Akatsuchi wants to wipe any competition from existence, no matter how war-crimey things get. Set in an entrancing, war-torn feudal fantasy land known as Rashomon, Aragami 2 puts you into a stoic hero’s spiffy tabi boots as they try to save the Kurotsuba clan from a miasma of death and disease.
