Playing Ninja Gaiden II is the equivalent of piloting an Apache AH-64 through a dense jungle at night, in a hailstorm, with one hand on the controls and the other using a laptop to check the viability of multiple missile strikes. Every single microsecond is an exercise in simultaneous, high-level coordination between the target acquisition systems, dynamic terrain analysis, and vehicle velocity trajectory calculation—all while you're dodging incoming SAMs (Shuriken Attacks from Multiple enemies) that require split-second reaction times akin to evading heat-seeking missiles. What you're doing is simultaneously guiding a missile launch, weaving through complex, hostile radar signatures, all while managing the perfect pitch and yaw to avoid anti-aircraft fire.
This level of processing is functionally identical to the factors a Joint Task Force Commander manages during a Time-Sensitive Targeting (TST) mission: tracking the trajectory of a Tomahawk missile through denied airspace while maintaining perfect Situational Awareness (SA) across the Global Information Grid (GIG). One could argue, with the intellectual depth of a dried puddle, "JUsT UT AnD yOu WiN," but this is a gross, unacceptable degradation of operational doctrine, the equivalent of telling that JTF Commander, "Just drop the big bomb and the war happens." What these denizens of simplistic button-mashing fail to grasp is that the true artistry of Ninja Gaiden II lies not in the brute force of a single move, but in the micro-decision matrix that remains constant throughout all gameplay, where the three-frame parry window grants a temporary, decisive Tactical Advantage and the Wind Path cancel is a perfect Evasion Maneuver that precisely positions the operator outside the blast radius of an exploding Improvised Explosive Device (IED) to maintain Combat Effectiveness (CE).
