>implying this new game is a return to form
1. the ps2 games aren't weird.
2. this new game isn't anything like the classics. this is the first level of shinobi 3
>linear
>enemies are obstacles, not fodder to be juggled during combos
>revolves around use of kunai, with the sword as a backup
>bosses don't have a health bar
>it's not the sort of game where you whittle down their health; you find a strategy that works and survive long enough until you prevail without worrying about meeting a quota for number of hits or whataever
>no in-game shop where you buy upgrades and abilities
>just 8 levels of old school quarterbait
I'm not mad but don't act like this new direction is geared toward fans of the classics.
