Nioh 2 PC launch has been a little problematic for sure, and Team Ninja is aware of that. So, the developer released a small yet important update for the game. Update 1.25.1 improves performance, fixes crash issues, and resolves some annoying bugs.
Issues where the game may crash in certain environments and when displaying equipment's descriptions of special effects have been resolved. But if crashes persist, the team showed how to work around them in the patch notes below.
They also improved the performance of the game and the game screen will not be cut off anymore. As a bonus, you can now change the confirmation button in Controls settings.
UPDATE 1.25.1 PATCH NOTES
The confirmation button can now be changed in Controls.
Fixed an issue where the lock-on target would switch when the mouse was moved, even if the Move Camera/Switch Lock-On Target setting was changed to an option other than Move Mouse in Keyboard & Mouse Settings.
Fixed an issue where the mouse sensitivity could become so high that it became impossible to change the settings
