The izuna drop might actually be the coolest move ever constructed in a video game.

The purple laser niggers are way worse

You're not actually getting filtered by imp fiends are you?
Caleb Jackson
Unironically the hardest enemies in the game when grouped with laser fiends. Getting spammed with grabs from all angles while dodging lasers makes the later levels in the sewer a chore
Caleb Martin

Michael Carter
The most bullshit enemies in the game are the turd commandos, because they have a zero start up frame grab that they will continuously spam on you. Against Imps you just need to block and do wind path. They are only ridiculous in that 100 man mission mode and Eternal Legend in that wave where you need to fight a bunch of them mixed with cat fiends, in both it's just a case of being overwhelmed with too many attacks at once.
Aaron Garcia
those only appear on hard mode and up right op? why are you complaining about difficult enemies that only appear on upper difficulties? you cant criticize a game by saying its unfair even, if thats only at difficulties that most people wouldnt play.
Austin Rogers
Also pro tip against laser crab fiends, which are contenders for hardest enemies in the game:
They are very vulnerable to either special arrows.
Nathan Perez
>He didn't spam Dabi/UF forward y or trivialize then with arrows
Chase Lee
Even on master ninja, their the only enemy that's unfun to fight due to their placements. Cat fiends and ninjas are tough sure but they aren't thrown together along with berserkers and ogres
Dominic Wood
I don't spam anything if i can help it :^)
Leo Ramirez
Izuna Drops and the Strong Attack button are too rewarding in this series
Ayden Sanchez
I find them really fun to fight. It's laser crab fags and turd commandos i can't stand. Multiple Ogres in tight quarters can go fuck themselves too.
Joseph Perry
>UF is a cheese weapon for shitters
>Only pros know how to use it's buff to the fullest and manage health
What did itagaki mean by this
Lucas Brooks
i would say the most unfun enemy is just the ghost pirana. If i was to say ninja gaiden wasnt a good game, it wouldnt be from an enemy on hard or above- that doesnt seem fair. like 20 percent of people playing would even encounter that.
it would be something in the normal mode of the game. Even beating NGB on hard and half of it on VH, the enemy that gave me those most frustration was the ghpst pirana.
Adrian Wright
Daily reminder that Ninja Gaiden 4 will NEVER HAPPEN
Hunter Carter
Just jump and mash x/square with flail
Camden Wright
>boss gets adds on higher difficulties
>it makes the boss fight easier
Josiah Martinez
That's why they were nerfed to hell in 2 (UTs at least). They are only op in black if you jump and then charge
Hunter Diaz
ng3 and re were shit though so thats good
Justin Carter
are you talking about quickcharges? those saved my ass a lot for the mini dashes with the dragon sword.
David Ross
>Kills your series
T-thanks tecmo
Zachary White
>Not listening to Ayane
Ghost fish are in the game for the sole purpose of feeding you money health and ninpo. Ayane literally tells you what to do against them. Those fish in the final 2 chapters are not actually there as a challenge, they are there to make sure you have a place to farm currency for the boss gauntlets should you need it and to get health between palace floors.
Colton Gonzalez
You're shit
Kayden Edwards
LOL UTs literally got buffed in 2. What are you even talking about?
Colton Anderson
what does she say? the only thing i could get to worl consistanlly was to windmill slash aimlessley until theyre all gone. Even if thats the intent its a shitty design and breaks up the pace of the game. there has to be a more tasteful cooler way of doing it than kamikazing ghost fish.
Brandon Sullivan
Real talk, are these games composed of recycled unused assets from other games or is the art direction just awful?
Michael Brown
NG1 is legitimately gorgeous aside from one part which literally has assets from fucking blinx 2. Sigma (ps3 port) is kinda eh but still looks cool
Kevin Edwards
She specifically tells you to use the Flails. What you need to figure out on your own is to not finish the strings with them as to avoid being stuck in recovery frames. The most effective tactic is to trigger one to attack, just straight up jump into it if you need to, do an air light slash and then when you land do the regular light attack string but don't do the last hit, wait for the next fish wave, rinse and repeat. You are untouchable while doing this.
You can use other weapons as well, you just have to do the right thing,
Luis Brown
The enemies I'm NG are extremely Goofy and most look like they belong in different games from the NES era. Some of the bosses in particular like Paz zuu and the dragon are particularly silly looking.
Nathaniel Gonzalez
Why must you be this much of a faggot? Sigma looks leaps and bounds better than Black where every ninja is just wearing different color pajamas.
Leo Cooper
wtf part resuses blinx assets?
Noah Kelly
I'd be lying if i said that some of the art direction in the first 2 games is not a miss. RE has excellent art direction though. The games still look gorgeous though and I'd like to know what other games from the genre from that time you are comparing it too, because it's pretty on par.
Easton Cox
razors edge has lots of dumb shit in it as well. 1 feels like the art direction thats the most consistant. 2 and 3 just get weird and stupid. some stuff from 2 was undeniably sick, but that game also went full deviantart at times. 3 had really tacky shit in it like the cyborg trex, and boring places lile the desert
Carter Wright
Some spots with tan brick, however blinx 2 was after NG04
Easton Bennett
Smaugan looks great, it's a classic western dragon design. What are you on about?
Kayden Williams
why do you or anyone know that ngb uses a brick texture from another game? why does anyone know that? thats such a weird thing to complain about also.
is it some public domain texture though? or did they just steal it?
Camden Rogers
Does anyone here play Ninja Gaiden Razor Edge Co op Online modes?
Landon Rogers
>lots of dumb shit i won't mention
Sure thing
Dominic Long
Because it makes me think i have any form of gamer cred
Joseph Fisher
I do when i manage to find someone, which is almost never. RE is unfortunately dead compared to Sigma 2 and it pains me greatly.
Christopher Martin
That's the thing, it's funny seeing a western style high fantasy dragon appear out of nowhere in a very Japanese game about demons and ninjas and samurai
Joshua Hughes
Ninja Gaiden is not a feudal Japanese setting, it's not even a normal Japanese setting. You spend the whole game fighting a variety of things, from future SWAT police, to Jin Roh soldiers, to zombies, to demon dinosaurs.
Grayson Baker
well the first thing i would criticize about ng3 mentioning that, is how unmemorable it is. i can remember most areas of ngb half or so of ng2 and almost none of ng3.
the cyborg trex was autistic. and so are rhe australian voice actors that get reused throughout the game that i think are even shared between different enemy skins. "SHIT. SHIT. SHIT. SHIT." ad nauseum in every conflict. also the way the game animated a lot of ryus dodges and combos lacks any impact at all. it feels and looks more like anime or dynasty warriors. ryu quick dashes everywhere with so much speed and combos so quickly it makes a lot of encounters seem pointless as well. it just felt like a cheap game. the steel on bone mechanic or whatever was interesting but slowed the pacing down a lot. and i think that was weird because the rest of the game is so fast paced that it ping pong baling around is obnoxious. the scripted segments where ryu is in pain are really annoying to replay as well.
Nicholas Nelson
Would you fuck a catfiend Yea Forums?
Carter Myers
i looked up some gameplay and heard the dudes from the first chapter yell fuck you 3 times in a single fight. how could they release a game like this, its so amateur. if you want edgy voice clips at least make sure they dont fucking repeat like that.
Nolan Peterson
That's your problem not the game's
>the cyborg trex was autistic
What does this even mean? The cyborg T-Rex is a cool as shit design, listen to the words you are typing,
>and so are rhe australian voice actors that get reused throughout the game that i think are even shared between different enemy skins. "SHIT. SHIT. SHIT. SHIT." ad nauseum in every conflict
Why are you playing Ninja Gaiden with the English dub to begin with, are you a tourist?

You are just the master of meaningless buzzwords, amazing.
I like how out of all of that nonsense there's literally only one thing remotely related to art design. It's almost like you just don't like the game and take whatever excuse to piggyback your hate onto. I pretty much disagree with everything you said save for that some weapons, mainly the claws and the dual swords have faster animation transitions, and even though i prefer those 2 weapons in the previous game there's nothing wrong with the way they "feel" in RE.
Colton Lee
Also the fact that you keep referring to it as NG3 is blatantly suspicious. I never hear anyone that actually played RE ever refer to it as NG3.

Where is the issue?
Specific enemies have specific lines for when they spawn so you don't get blindsided from off screen by an enemy you did not even know was in the fight. They also have some lines tied to attacks which serve as audio cues.
Ryder Miller
no a cyborg t rex is not a cool design. its a parody if anything of the concept of what a boss design is. it would be great in a comedy game but not somehing that is trying to take itself seriously like this. its a ninja turtles arcade sort of boss.
you must be pretty desperate to ask why im playing a game on english mode. ninja gaiden is made for english markets. no one in japan likes it.
if we are talking about art direction specifically, i think it has a lot of bad designs. the desert level is ugly and boring. so is the secret laboratory level that you find the trex in. the soliders all look stupid. every humanoid enemy design in ninja gaiden 1 was cool or interesting. the tairon police and the vigoorian military were a lot more interesting and cooler looking than the military/ paramilitary enemies in this game. the hard mode versions in ngb were even cooler sometimes like when the tairon military almost look like patroling ai robots. they also got new voice clips to accomodate the new look. it was exciting and cool.
this game also has a similar problem to ng2 in that it has too much blood and its comical. ngb had violence but it wasnt comical how much blood there was. sigma removing all blood is just as bad. in this game the enemies are just walking blood bags and it feels like cheap and tacky.
also this game has no samurai in it which sucks and still has the retarded werewolves from the first game. i get that it likes to mix up what you fight but it still should take advantage of the fact its first and foremost something japanese. the fact you fight modernized enemies later in ngb was well balanced by the fact you get to fight samurai and armored horsemen as well earlier in the game. while the black spiderclan are still in it, more japanese inspired designs would have been a lot cooler to pad the game out with than tacky werewolves and generic mercenary looking guys who keep yelling fuck you at me.
Dominic Stewart
its ng3 even if its re. i have re and played it through once and found it bland and hollow feeling. im calling it ng3 because thats what its supposed to be.
because it lacks any sense of design or nuance or subtlty. a demonic enemy that spawns in with a growl or snarl is generic enough to not be a repeated phrase of a language. and even then, if you vary your voice clips you can still do this without reminding the player in every conflict theyre playing a game with tacky annoying repeated phrases. ninja gaiden also suffers from over extending itself with an increased enemy count. its always been at its best with less enemies who are individually more skilled/dangerous. cramming extra enemies into conflicts and having to reply to offscreen cues is a crutch to fix a broken problem. never the less, even has far back as ngb they did this. a rpg soldier wpuld load his bazooka with a clunk off screen and you would know to dodge. offscreen projectiles are really the only thing you need a cue for. and minimizing how often those happens is probably better than having to spam warning sounds over and over.
if you want to do it in some fights fine but make sure that your warning cues are generic enough that you dont recognize them as the same clip- or vary them so it doesnt matter. it needed more polishing.
Joseph Hill
Fuck you RE doesn't deserve such a low rating

You sound like an obnoxious retard
>you must be pretty desperate to ask why im playing a game on english mode. ninja gaiden is made for english markets. no one in japan likes it.
Literally EVERYONE who is anyone in regards to this series plays it with the Japanese dub, the one that has been significantly superior since the beginning. There's a reason it's in the fucking game you brainlet. Now i know you're a tourist.
>it 'tupid!
>it boring!
Christ
>Werewolves from the first game
WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU EVEN TALKING ABOUT? Can i get into a single fucking argument with someone that has actually played these fucking video games in their life? I want to tear my fucking hair out, this shit isn't even funny anymore.
Gavin Garcia
I'm not reading more of you LARP drivel after that last post
Xavier Jones
the fact of the matter is that the xbox has been almost irrelevant in japan as a brand since 2001. ninja gaiden is a game made by a japanese dev team intended for a western audience. Im going to play it with english voice settings. besides- why would the enemies be speaking japanese in france or wherever the first level takes place? thats stupid. considering it takes place all over the world i wouldnt even care if in japan on all language options if most of was in japanese with subtitles. im not going to have you tell me everyone plays this shit in japanese though becaude youre talking out of your ass.

Forgot this precious absolute retard nugget.
Robert Carter
bro its true. if every enemy shits blood everywhere it has no impact, and it is cheap. if they cut down on how absolutely EASY it is to cut a arm off or a leg, and it was more seldom, it would cool. and it would feel cool. but when it happens throughout almost every conflict it feels cheap and like a desperate attempt at being "cool." It isn't from some puritan standpoint. The occasional decapatation in ngb would have benefitted from more blood, but dismemberments in that game were rare. if they toned it down by 50 percent it would feel fucking cool. not like youre fighting cardboard bloodbags.
Jeremiah White
in ninja gaiden i wanted it to feel like WOAH A LEG CAME OFF and not just oh lol that guys leg came off too. its two completelt different things. and that difference is what makes a game feel polished or tasteful or exciting.
Jose Cruz
Why are you still trying to talk to me when you played yourself by letting it slip that you never played these games? I don't care about your musings on what you remember from a Let's Play you watched a couple of years ago. I should have guessed from the ridiculously vague arguments. Show yourself out and stay there.
Justin Peterson
youre the one who shouldnt be taken seriously posting doax shit. i know what im talking about even if the organization is misleading you because im typing this on a phone so its hard to proofread. ninja gaiden has gotten worse and worse as a series because its less about polished gameplay and more about abusing iframes and stupid gimmicks now.
Mason Cook
>ninja gaiden has gotten worse and worse as a series because its less about polished gameplay and more about abusing iframes and stupid gimmicks now
ooooooooh so you're that one sperg that only made it to the 3rd chapter of NG2 on normal mode and never played RE yet likes to pose as some NG expert. How many fucking times am i gonna catch you in this lie? You just don't learn do you?
You obviously know fuck all about NG1 as well. This would be like if a DMCfag saying he does not like DMC1 because of the chess pieces enemies or that DMC3 is his favorite because it has the Frost enemies. Even if the literal number one priority of the entire NG series was not to memorize specific enemy behaviors, this shit just does not happen. I probably remember where every enemy from every video game i have a memory of belongs to, everyone does, we have threads about it, everyone except the people who never played them of course.
When are you gonna stop with your pathetic wannabe attitude? Why do you insist on talking about games you never played when it just makes you look like a fool? You so overestimate your anonymity.
Brandon Long
Dumb phone user.
Luke Davis
i didnt even read your post after saying i didnt beat 2. 2 had a lot of problems but it was better than 3. it was the most ambitious game in terms of locations. and i loved that. but its overreliance on iframe execution attacks was fucking disgusting. Fuck spamming executions where you are invincible or enemies just watch you, or clip throug you without consequence.
Aiden Wood
ive been here since like 04 05. people who dont ever phone post "because" are the most autistic ones here. you have a computer in your hand stronger than whatever desktop you had a decade ago and you still are going to walk all the way upstairs just to go on Yea Forums?
