>>717289460 (OP)

That's not Ninja Gaiden 2 pleb

>>717289571
I agree

>>717289460 (OP)
Insane amount of tech and interesting mechanics which all get pissed away in the sequels because they let you do whatever the fuck you want without any tradeoffs and thus making the design of the sequels less interesting and in turn less fun

>>717289460 (OP)
how it iterated on DMC1's player control and enemy feedback. Stinger FEELS more powerful, it's faster, has more screenshake and on the reaper enemies on kill it absolutely demolishes them. add more seamless weapon swapping and weapons with more unique movesets and concepts and it's a pretty damn good game, shame that a bunch of enemies kind of suck ass.

whatever it was, it wasn't enemy design

>>717289460 (OP)
It isn't. Next question.

>>717289460 (OP)
I am not sure yet.
I possibly suck ass.
died during mission 2 on normal. truly a shame. also died to cerberus twice.
I did get my SSS combo but I feel like what the game has to offer is not much at all rn because of how much health the enemies have and how their AI is designed, also HP.
gotta keep collecting red orbs I bet. one problem I have is how the should button isn't feeling so comfortable anymore as opposed to DMC 1. that's probably just me though.
for one, I like that you can redo levels.
I feel ashamed that the game has started mocking me. DMC 1 and 2 were so generous....

if you don't know already, try jumping to avoid attacks instead of rolling while locked on. the start of any jump has i-frames, so you can jump through attacks and be safe. for cerberus use the shotgun to blast the ice off his heads/legs, and use the pistols to maximize your air uptime when he freezes the ground.

extremely fun combat and movement, deep combat, good replayability, many good weapons and the only other games that can compete (NGB and NGII) have extreme flaws

>>717289460 (OP)
DMC2 dude got so utterly humiliated that he had to meticulously develop one of the most fun games to overcompensate

>>717290847
>DMC 1 and 2 were so generous.
You didn't beat DMC 1 if you didn't S rank every mission on DMD.
I'm not even fucking with you. That is how the game was designed and supposed to be played. They then nerf the proper difficulty in order to serve as long tutorial.
Action games that function like this:
DMC 1,3,4,5
Bayonetta 1
Vieutiful Joe
The Wonderful 101
Ninja Gaiden Black
Ninja Gaiden II(Vanilla)
Metal Gear Rising Revengeance
Wanted: Dead
Shinobi PS2
Nightshade PS2
Resident Evil 4 OG

One could argue that God Hand was made like that as well but I think that God Hard is an actual insane hard mode and not the intended way of playing the game like it is for previous ones.

To return to DMC1, seriously anon, you havent seen shit if you just mashed on normal. DMC1 is supposed to be an arcade game through and through and really good players can S rank it on DMD in a single sitting in less than 2 hours and I'm not talking spreedrunner tier cheap tricks, Kamiya and the team legitimately designed a true arcade game for consoles.

>>717291076
good to know

>>717291551
yeah, I was contemplating on playing the other difficulties for 1 and 2 since it feels like the right thing to do.
I can already see myself raging and using yellow orbs like a retard which I didn't need to do on normal (makes me proud).

>>717291930
dmc 2 is so easy, must die feels like normal difficulty of the game
not recommended

>>717291551
>didnt beat godhand on hard
you didnt beat it

>>717289571
good game but the combat is all style and spectacle with no substance

>>717289460 (OP)
Op here
meant to post this

>>717289460 (OP)
Sounds like you like story and content, not combat depth.

>>717289460 (OP)
Despite all the improvements I still like the first one better, the bosses are the only part of the game I really liked.

>>717291551
>Nightshade
never heard of this shit in my life

>>717294132
shinobi (3d) 2

>>717294132
You didn't beat the game of knowledge let alone the actual game.

>>717289460 (OP)
Royal Guard. It and 5 are the best DMC games because Royal Guard is great in them.

subhuman

>>717294972
>you googled pathetic cat and posted? that means you're reddit
guilty as charged, you still didn't beat the game though

>>717291551
>metal gear rising is meant to be played s ranking every mission on revengeance
psychotic logic, i've done it and it's a complete bastardization of what makes the game actually good/fun
mgrr raiden is best on hard, sam/wolf are best on rev, ranks should always be ignored

>>717295116
Post your gameplay

>>717295207
Post how the fuck you knew that filename was reddit, you redditor.

>>717295257
>reddit meme with a reddit animal

>>717289571
LMAO

>>717295257
>redditor trying to no you when asked for gameplay
no wonder these threads are so shit

>>717293594
Ninja Gay Den isn't good and never was

>>717289460 (OP)
Lollipop chainsaw, nothing comes close.

>>717295121
MGRR raiden is best on 'very hard' because of the different enemy placements, without the retarded ohko parry of revengeance

>>717295530
>no I can't explain how I knew that sequence of numbers was from reddit
k
I didn't play whatever game I facetiously responded to your original post with that reddit meme, it was a joke post you autistic nigger.

>>717295850
very hard is acceptable, but s rank rev is just awful balance-wise because parries instant kill so you're forced to either intentionally play like a tard which makes fights take 10x as long, or instant kill perfect parry then do a zandatsu cut and spam 20 blademode cuts before despawn, for every single fight
it's genuinely just awful and only someone that's never done it, or has supremely terrible taste, would like it

very hard is fun but i wouldn't recommend for a new player, while hard i would say it's the way it should be played, easy/normal should just be disregarded

>>717295974
>subhuman doesn't even play games he talks about
fuck off to reddit

>>717296083
>you didn't play the game I didn't know existed, fuck off to reddit
I'll go if you go with me, clearly you already have an account there since you recognized a literal random sequence of numbers from the website lmao.

>>717296217
>still trying to no you
the redditard doesn't know you can google filenames kek

redditchads always win

>>717289460 (OP)
Its the complete package of good story, gameplay and music, 5 fumbled with V and the dumb story

>>717289460 (OP)
Great balance between story, presentation, gameplay and music.
It's not my favorite but it's very all round.

>>717289460 (OP)
That would be Bloodbore
