Here
we will show how to fight in |
Way
of the Samurai 2. |
| |
| |
|
|
|
| ●Kick ------------------------------------------- |
|
| |
| |
| ●Like
Way of the Samurai, there are |
|
only 3 types of kicks. |
| It is easiest
to surprise enemies with a |
| jump
kick from behind. |
| |
|
|
|
| ●Throw ------------------------------------------- |
|
| ●The
moves that can be done are |
|
based on the weapon being used. |
| |
|
|
|
| ●Slash ------------------------------------------- |
|
|
| |
| ●There
are basically two types of slashing attacks, the Tate-giri
and the Yoko-giri. |
| But
depending on the buttons the player pushes, there are several
variations of these attacks. |
| |
|
| ●Stab ------------------------------------------- |
|
| ●This
type of attack is not very different |
|
than the slash attacks except that there |
|
are less variations of it. |
| The long
reach of the stabbing attack is |
| one
of its biggest advantages. |
| |
|
|
|
| ●Defense ------------------------------------------- |
|
| ●Players
are able to defend themselves |
|
with
the push of a single button.
|
|
|
|
| ●One
against many --------------------------------- |
|
|
| |
| ●When
surrounded by enemies, the samurai can perform a special move
|
| that will
defeat them all at once. |
| |
|
| ●About
the Two Swords style of fighting ---------------- |
|
| |
|
●It
seems that the "Ni-ten Ichi-ryu" style mainly comes
from the teachings of the famous swordsman, |
| Miyamoto Musashi.
The controls for this style are discussed in detail on the
Official Website. |
| |
| １．「Defense」 |
| |
| ●By crossing your
swords and pointing them towards the enemy's eyes, it makes
it harder for |
| them to see the
lengths of the blades. Plus, it closes some of the holes in
your defense, |
| making it fairly
difficult to attack. It is easier to block an attack with the
swords crossed than with |
| ust one sword because
the two swords support each other. You can also completely lower
your right |
| sword to hide
it, but doing this for too long will sap your strength and also
allow your opponent |
| to read your next
move, so the crossed swords stance is probably the best. |
| |
| |
|
１．「Attacks」 |
| |
| ●The second attack
coming right after the first attack is one of the most frightening
things |
| about the Two Swords
style of fighting. In reality, having both swords attack in
parallel |
| is what you would
want to do. Also, there was a technique where you would stop
mid-move |
| and use the deadweight of your
sword to counterattack. (Sasaki Kojiro's counterattack, |
| "Tsubame-gaeshi
(Swallow Counter)" is basically the same idea. It seems
that |
| master swordsmen
of the same timeperiods have similar ways of thinking.) |
| The Two Swords
style of using a sword in each hand was based a lot on |
| Musashi's great
physicalstrength and power and therefore
is rarely seen in use. |
