Threadly reminder: if you're a true fan of the action genre you will buy Ninja Gaiden 4, even if you don't like the direction it took or don't even like Ninja Gaiden at all.

Not buying NG4 is a win for rollslop.

Don't agree. I think it's because the series has been discussed to death since it's baby first action game. There's more out there.

The problem with most DMC movies is that they refuse to move, it's not really about them being unwilling to attack they just suck at moving and each entry the player gets better and better movement tools.

I know this is a bait chart but there is no way DMC2 is better than anything else on that chart (besides Remember Me).

Remember Me was boring dogshit but if it released today people would pretend it is a masterpiece out of contrarianims (and the MC's fat ass).

Thanks.
It's pretty interesting because in comparison there are way fewer Soulslikes, with some years not even having Soulslikes at all

2015: Lord of the Fallen
2016: Dark Souls 3
2017: Nioh, The Surge
2018: Nothing
2019: Sekiro, Code Vein, The Surge 2
2020: Hellpoint, Nioh 2
2021: Nothing
2022: Elden Ring
2023: Lies of P, Lords of the Fallen reboot
2024: Shadow of the Erdtree
2025: AI Limit, Nightreign
Upcoming: Duskblood

In comparison action games are a vastly more successful genre which outnumbers Soulslikes 3 to 1.

If no one did they wouldn't keep being made In fact action games are going through a golden age in the same vein as the original Playstation 2 / Xbox / Gamecube era golden age.

Soulslikes are the ones no one actually buys and plays; they're chasing a trend without realizing that normalfags only buy From games and nothing more and that's why the genre started slowing down so heavily during the past two years.

As a true fan of NG I will not be buying this trash.
1 and 2 were good games, 3 was absolute dogtier trash, 4 is trying to be cute with the "new protagonist" shtick replacing the old which I don't like.
Oh also this is my revenge for Ryuu being gay and no way fagging this.
His series should die, but for good this time.

I will expose myself here and ask what you guys think of this idea i've been sitting on for awhile. The basic gameplay premise is similar to god hand. Tank controls, right stick for dodge, and customizable moveset.

Face buttons are your attacks. Unlike God Hand, there are no universal attacks so neutral attack, forward attack, and back attack are all open for moves, potentially even back>forward inputs if I really wanted to give the players as many moves as possible.

Square is where you can put your combo attacks but every input can have up to 3 "combos" attached to it and the special property of these moves is that the recovery is cancellable into other attacks, which makes chaining the combo attack itself faster than normal but also allows you to seamlessly chain into other non-square attacks faster as well.
X attacks have no special properties
Triangle attacks are where you can place special modifiers on attacks. i.e. attack is 25% faster but deals 50% less damage, ability to charge the attack for extra damage, attack gains armor properties but has uncancellable recovery if it whiffs.
O is exclusively for throw moves. I've thought about it a lot but there's a lot of variety you can add to throws. i.e. you have normal throws which enemies can break out of, especially if used too much but are very strong. Hit throws that have to connect with an unblocked enemy to do anything but can't be broken out of, throws that exist to combo into for damaging enders.

I also thought it would be cool to have special attacks mapped to R1+face button that of course can be swapped out and work kind of like streets of rage 4 where they cost health to use but can be regained by hitting enemies.

I was just wondering if this layout sounds appealing or if it's over complicated or what.

Probably but I have the idea of replacing the back dodge with a hop that goes over lows like Sifu and holding R1+dodge will give you something similar to god hands backflip, as in something that has more i-frames and covers a longer distance, but can be used in any direction.

It's not really amazing. A PvP game requires interaction with a real person and it's a constantly evolving game for the player. Progress is more rewarding.

Same thing with stealth. It got absorbed into other games. Like GTA, RDR, Far Cry, Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, Ass Creed, BamHam and so on. Why make a dedicated stealth game when you can get your stealth elsewhere already? Same with action, it got absorbed up by a lot of those same games and franchises. Souls is a big part of it too. Everyone thinks its the combat that made Souls so successful so all the Soulslikes try to copy the combat. It all gets diluted down so a lot of publishers won't see a gap in the market for a dedicated action game.

Wrong. Fighting games are bigger than they've ever been. People have been saying the genre has been dying for over 10 years, every game but street fighter is dead, etc. Except they're still getting new games and updates and the playerbase is larger and larger.

It's still small in comparison to everything else but again it's always been like that.

I got stranger of paradise in the sale, and the action is good but everything around it has aids. More random dogshit to pick up and sift through than borderlands, all so that I can make a build with +2.3% scrotum distension. Skill trees and job levels in a game where I'M meant to be the one getting better. Also fuck the cutscenes, just because I can skip them doesn't mean I should deal with multiple back to back ones and the associated 80gb file size.
Anyway does this shit get better? I'm at the end of my 2 hour "demo" period and I'm thinking I might just refund it and try Ninja Gaiden instead. I have a hard copy of black waiting to be played right there.

It's a game that consist on three segments:
- Assassins' Creed style platforming
- Action game segments that play like an extremely, extremely simplified God Hand
- Memory manipulation segments, that played like an extremely, extremely simplified form of Ghost Trick's puzzles.

It's one of those games that not even modern "good is bad bad is good" revisionist contrarianism have been unable to rehabilitate.

Who told you that? It's a Final Fantasy game. It's all about builds and party compositions. The only difference is this one is also an action game so there's execution requirements along with your job/skill/item setup.

SC and DoA were never that popular and MK is exactly the same. Nobody took MK seriously it's always been a joke to people that took the genre seriously.
Guilty Gear is unfortunately popular and we've always had a bunch of other smaller titles get released that weren't popular in the anime space and SNK of course.

Shut the fuck up nigger. You don't know anything. You can talk about how modern FGs are trash but the genre isn't dying. Again if it was truly dying it would've died many many years ago

Taking fighting games "seriously" is for retards and the way you place importance on a fighting game based on how seriously the community treats it is a dead giveaway that you are an even bigger retard. I don't like MK and the fact that nobody takes it seriously is a redeeming feature in my eyes just because it makes retards like you seethe.

There is an optimize equipment and auto-dismantle for a reason. Job levels do not exclude you from also getting better at the game unless you are so bad at the game not even they could help you. The fact you bitch about skippable cutscenes of all things yet didn't mention anything regarding the actual combat mechanics like Chain Cancel means that yes, it gets substantially better. But can you?

A first playthrough is not balanced around you optimizing your gear and the game has a pretty steady progression of gear. Optimizing gear to have the absolute best balance of damage/defense and stats and stuff won't do you any favors because you will very quickly find gear in the next few levels that trump your "optimized" gear purely with raw stats being higher. The game is not going to be incredibly easier or harder because of good or bad RNG drops.

Also I forgot SoP makes it even easier because there is just an "optimize" gear button lol, so there's very little reason to care about it unless you're so autistic the act of pressing a button to pick up gear a few dozen times per level triggers you or something.

Because you fundamentally don't understand the system and have shown that you don't want to even try to learn it at its most basic level, so they tell you to do it because it might shut you up long enough to learn the rest of the game and maybe notice how it actually works by then. The first playthrough of these games are designed to not require any precise gear management whatsoever to focus on the core combat mechanics, it offers minimal benefit for equipping specific gear along with little to no reward for mindless grinding. The gear is for finetuning and customizing your playstyle later on.

What the fuck are you talking about. Where in my post did I imply i'm seething at MK. My only point with MK is that it has the same success as it ever has and that pointing that "back then we had MK" as if MK is irrelevant now is retarded. I pointed out that it was never taken seriously because whatever retard was saying made it seem like MK no longer matters, when it never mattered except to casuals and they're still releasing MK anyways so

That's more or less what I expected, like I said the action is good but you can't tell at the start how much it's going to lean into any aspect, and when I have other games on hand that just don't have skinner box loot just makes those stick out more.
Also yeah the cutscenes aren't bad on their own just more indicative that the game might have modern sony aids. Doesn't help that back to back ones have me loading, skipping then waiting to load the next then skipping that too. That or the fact everyone was saying its cool because jack doesn't give a shit about fantasy tropes, but then the plot starts and it's regular fantasy filler.
For what it's worth I liked dissidia a lot, I think it is just the random loot on EVERY enemy making me expect its going to waste my time.

If you don't take fighting games seriously then you wouldn't care about the genre being "dead" especially when plenty of FGs still come out. The only people that bitch about the genre dying are people that actually care about playing it competitively.

I don't know what you mean by not being able to tell how much it'll lean into aspects, the first level gives you several weapons, abilities and mechanics to play with and presents the variety the job system will allow, the game keeps adding more and more in that regard. I will at least say that the game does go much heavier on the cutscenes at the start to convey the setting and the initial plot, but there is still enough that seems off to add an air of mystique to what is going on particularly if you're familiar with Final Fantasy already. They ease off after the second main mission. The amount of loot doesn't mean anything because of how the systems surrounding it work, stop letting your preconceived notions twist you. Regardless of how much they drop you can still dump it immediately due to auto-dismantle etc., what it does is let you progress quickly without needing to look through gear at all.

They're all good, the PSP games are designed far more for single player with having a lot of content and RPG mechanics, but the core combat is very enjoyable and the characters have a lot of variety to them. NT focuses significantly more on the multiplayer and does have a free version but I doubt there are many people online, it was done dirty in too many ways to count. Back to the PSP games, Duodecim is the sequel but it has basically everything from the first game included.
>>715120016
They're full 3D movement arena fighters, the PSP games are 1v1, Duodecim is 1v1 with an assist system, while NT is 3v3 as standard. They have a pretty unique damage system where you have two types of attacks, HP attacks which do actual damage based on Bravery, and Brave attacks which increase said Bravery by lowering the opponent's. That opens up a variety of strategies and mindgames based on what you prioritize. Beyond that you would be better just watching footage or trying it out.

If there's no Mission Results then it's not a real Character Action game. Mashing combos is not what defines the genre.

Onimusha has end of game result screens
DMC1 has mission scoring and obviously style meter to measure score mid-battle
NG1 has a scoring system too (although not a good one)

I hope it will be good and that yakhomo will be a cool character.
But I expect the game to be bad and yakhomo will still be a shit gay character, sadly.
They should just redesign him or get rid of this failure of a character who is supposed to replace Ryu.

New protagonists are fine if they put the work. And when I say put the work, I think "Brand New Characters that put bowl of fresh air into a story" and not "A diet version of the protag".
Some examples:
>Brand new characters :
>Rodimus Prime
>Raiden
>Wally West
>Diet version:
>Miles Morales
>Nero
>That red haired guy for the new 2D Ninja Gaiden

Or stop being a bitch? Japanese children were able to accept their characters getting replaced all of the damn time, from Jojo to Mazinger/Grendrizer/Forgotdizer or Gundam.
So why you, someone I assume is 18+, can't?

Nah, they have the same problem of being "legacy characters" in stories that have no business for those types.
Devil May Cry is something that should be directly linked to Dante, same with the Spider-man alter ego being linked with Peter Parker.
I include Viola in those "unrequited legacy characters type".

It reminds me of when I was bad at baldr because I was a tryhard watching speedruns and didn't know how to parry. After I learned how to play I only die because I'm careless. But honestly they're the hardest enemies in the game along with the painters because they don't abuse i-frames and shit they'll parry and mix-up on you. Kinda cool design

I have just been literally and figuratively gatekept from continuing my DMC 3 DMD SS rank run by Cerberus. I can't beat this piece of shit boss no damage. I swear this boss is poorly designed, that ice rain attack when he's enraged is just random, I can't even dodge it consistently with trickster. And having to do the rest of the level just to get hit by some random shit from Cerberus is trash. Should I settle with going for just S ranks. Doing this shit no damage is maddening.

His only tricky attack is Ice breath, which can also be parried. Man, I love that you can parry everything with a hitbox in this game. Better than that is possibly parrying grabs in Bayonetta. Unfortunately DMC barely uses parry in creative ways.

idk who this is and idc about ecelebs, maybe this is you shilling yourself, but dark souls is actually a pretty poor analog for typical action games because action games promote experimentation with all mechanics to deal with any given challenge, while dark souls is explicitly against this design
in dark souls, you are largely meant to run 1 or 2 weapons, upgrade those weapons, and have a very narrow stat range that heavily limits what options you have in any given scenario

if you take dark souls and remove all levelups/upgrades, like there's a mod for elden ring that does, i think, inherently, the average action game player (someone that really plays them regularly, not someone that plays once and moves on) becomes much more well versed than a typical player, the typical player in that example will still just use the one best weapon while the typical action game player will experiment with dozens of weapons/spells/etc.

Dark souls without ugprades is tryhard shit. ER lets you go without upgrades but that's by design. The game only scales on your level in the Boletaria palace (not bothering to google the name of the stage), outside of that you can go anywhere. That's why samurai has become so OP it has the best frame data and stats.

I've been playing kh recom these days and 2nd Vexen is the first boss that is actually giving me trouble. I can dodge his freeze sleight but the needles one is still hard and the way I built my deck I don't have 0s
I know I could modify the deck but I got close multiple times and I want to beat it like this now. Fucker will wait to play cards but the microsecond I play an elixir he will find a way to card break it.

You mean ice rain? Where the ice shards falls on top of you? Because the ice breath where he freezes the ground is just free damage. I already tried RG and got decently far. His first phase is easy with RG because the ice rain falls in a single spot so you can jump and RG pretty consistently. In his second phase the ice rain keeps falling for longer and in random patterns that track your location so while I could still RG 80% of the time, I would ocassionally still get hit in the recovery by a single tiny delayed ice shard and while it's chip damage it means the SS is gone. It's a pretty shit boss to be honest. I lot of guides just cheese him with guns in the corner. I could do the same but what would be the point, it's not fun.

Give me genuine arguments for why NG2 Black is "bad" and you can't say because it's based on the Sigma version.

Remember that between OG 1 and Black, there were quite a lot of changes, including removal of certain things. Even if you hate sigma 2, it undoubtedly improved some aspects of the game. 2 Black is a culmination of changes between both games. Namely it keeps every good sigma change (i.e. removing some really bad encounters or bosses, improving bow and bow segments, adding some okay-ish bosses) while restoring original design of enemies health/damage + delimb rate for weapons (while nerfing ones that were too OP). Enemy count is a mix between sigma and NG2, mostly restoring cut encounters and less enemies is an actual improvement in certain areas that were way too lengthy for their own good while providing very little challenge.

more enemies + lower health + higher delimb rates = higher chance that your UT will kill a lot more enemies
less enemies + more health + lower delimb rates = lower chance that UT will kill multiple enemies

Higher health enemies encourages you to use more of your moveset but instead you bitch that the canned izuna drop string that everyone knows about and every weapon has and is known for being spammed doesn't kill certain enemies now. Really shows your priority.

call me filtered but grab attacks actively hurt this game
every other attack type has multiple ways to respond but grabs?
just dodge lmaoooo it doesnt help that they usually have dogshit hitboxes and crazy tracking, whenever one comes out it just slows combat down
why even have burst counters when you CANNOT use them on ALL grabs?

>over small changes
Remember when everyone hated Nero in DMC4 because he was seen as a replacement to Dante and Dante himself got shafted for most of the game?

Yet retards like you think we should eat up NG4 even though it completely sidelines Ryu for a new character that does not play like Ryu being the most basic of basics along with adding tons of other slop mechanics to the game that makes it NOT ninja gaiden. Ryu likely only has a single weapon and we're likely not getting any additional characters (something the series has kept adding and improving with each entry).

There's lots of loot because there's some 35 jobs in the game and it's balanced to allow you to switch to any and be able to have your pick of affinities for any other job. Early game when you're levelling up I'd just stick to auto optimize whenever you swap jobs. If you don't like it I'd just refund.

Environments look like shit, they have nothing to do with Ninja Gaiden's easthetic, the gameplay look half baked, the animations look weightless and the characters shown so far look like absolute shit.

tfw there will never be another action game combat animation/control system like the way Guts controls in Falcon of the Millennium on PS2.

Easily the best a huge sword has ever felt in a game, shame the rest of the game is designed kinda poorly. Long empty corridors, feels like ticketing between enemies is underdeveloped. The boss fights are cool though

Souls is not really much of an action game to begin with, really. They are all designed mainly around the other aspects like level design, the bossfights are just the payoff for overcoming the rest. The combat itself is simplistic and relies heavily on the enemy design more than the player moveset, though obviously you can still do some funky stuff.
It's kinda the inverse of stuff like DMC. Makes me wish there were more games that focused on the same sort of level design and adventure game-like focus as Souls, but also had way more in-depth action game combat like DMC or Nioh.

But none of that applies to souls? I got through elden without even touching the dogshit crafting system and most newfag players who never played it got through using mimic tear. As for older DS games just pick a weapon and learn to press circle at the right time. Only souls game that realistically applies to is nioh.

Literally all of that applies to souls. Every options is balanced and better at certain encounters, the game is entirely designed around adapting to things and using all the tools available to you. Less so as the series progressed, but it is undeniably true of everything before DS3. Most people being retarded and just using one weapon the entire time doesn't change the game balance, any more than somebody claiming DMC is a trash unbalanced game because you can just spam Stinger.

if none of the options are competing for the players attention because there's a clear winner for every encounter (mimic tear) then there's 0 real reason to consider other options. Less so for stuff like crafting in ER when actually getting ingredients is a cumbersome process that forces you to interact with the shitty open world and invest your time for minimal returns. It has options with 0 incentive to engage in any of the systems beyond the bare minimum. I can see people getting involved with all the other options on offer if they are REALLY into the game mechanically but what's on offer in souls is so surface level there's no real reason to go back after you beat it once to try other options. It's an adventure game series where you go sight seeing cool ruins

The main problem with that idea is that 1. you'd need a blocking system (it's not a problem in itself but god hand doesnt give the player a block to emphasize dodging) and 2. you would need actual movement otherwise it's mostly just two retards playing rock em sock em robots.

If you want "PvP god hand" play a real fighting game like Tekken. God Hand's systems don't have any unique systems to it that would lend itself to being a fun pvp game.

This basically says what i've felt about DMC for quite awhile. When the player gets good at style and weapon switching, you realize that your options actually get very narrow as you're only using the best and most useful attacks from each weapon.

>>715186521
Souls games aren't balanced. Even if you just talk about the balance of the individual weapons and armors there are a ton of best of class stuff no matter what you choose.
In Demons Souls the upgrade system actually balances weapons out more because weapons that have lower stats cost less upgrade mats so you balance damage with time spent since you'd have to grind to upgrade the best weapons to max
