Ninja Gaiden 3 might be the most underrated game of all time, I don't mean in the "hurr this unknown niche game is actually a masterpiece" way, I mean in the hate vs actual quality of the game,

It's movie game Ninja Gaiden, its polished, it's playable, some of the set pieces are fun in a MGR kind of way; it's only shit in comparison to what came before, if NGB and NG2 didn't exist NG3 would have a cult following now. Because it's still a Team Ninja game with polished satisfying combat. The fact that you have more people defending Devil's Third than NG3 says a lot really.

as bad as NG3RE is, it's still leagues better than any 3D action game we've gotten in the last decade

The fact that NG3 RE has such a blatantly overpowered weapon like the Scythe where one specific move is so ridiculously strong it invalidates basically every other weapon and move in the game kinda puts a damper on the experience for me.

None of the games had fantastic balance but that shit was on another level.

3RE is breddy good even though it's the weakest NG IMO

It says that most fans here don't actually play the games and larp after watching Mork talk about it instead.

No, it's bad by being mediocre action game. Not worth of Ninja Gaiden's legacy.

Any news on NG2 PC port?

So true, you see the same thing with Wanted Dead. Not as bad as journos say but not very good overall

Recomp for NG2 (similar to that sonic game) is supposedly being worked on, but NG has a much smaller and less autistic fanbase so I don’t have high hopes. I think there’s a higher chance that Xbox brings their backwards compatibility emulator to PC, since they’re doing that PC handheld

Yeah. Wanted: Dead is a very fun game for the $6 admission, but it's definitely reasonable to mark it down for the normal asking price of like $40.
You can tell most of the Devil's Third and Wanted: Dead truthers here are just Mork fanboys because you never hear them sing the praises of Oneechanbara Z2, a low budget action game with some actually satisfying combat. That, and they talk major shit about P* games like Bayo and Vanquish that regularly go on sale for $5 on Steam because
>hating P* is trendy now
even though most action game fans would realize that the P* hate is because most of their contract work sucks, not because their original work was somehow "always bad".

I'm also tired of Morklike opinions shitting up all action game discussion. Linear levels are fine and even great, but no, a single hallway of action isn't desirable. That doesn't mean Stellar Blade password doors are good either, but his whole point of "devs are out of line designing quiet time in their action video games" only makes sense if the games you like are exclusively quarter munchers. Mork explicitly says this is what he wants in games.

I'm honestly not so interested in NG2 OG now that the BLACK mod for Sigma 2 is in a good spot, and the WHITE mod for NG2B is getting there in terms of custom enemy spawns.
