What's the business logic of releasing on a tuesday?

>>723564984 (OP)
Is this really from the game? What's the context?

>>723564984 (OP)
post more

>>723566165
Thats the traditional day that games are released.

>>723567213
Feels less common than it used to. Publishers realize people stay at home and play video games during their time off now

>>723566824
Context is boobs, tits even

I love her tacticool outfit in 3RE

>>723565554
Releasing games on Tuesday is retarded

Xbox pandered to the loud minority,.gamers don't want sexualized women in games anymore

>>723569276
>gamers don't want sexualized women in games anymore
Are gen z all fags now or what?

>>723568491
It's the coolest Ayane

>>723565554
Might call in sick in all honesty

>>723568491
Sexo

>>723569276
Woke won...

>>723565554
Wait, 8 PM Monday? Fucking WHY?

>>723569996
Fuck you, that's why

>>723566824
The girl is real. The animation was AI generated.

Holy titcow

>>723565554
>tfw gonna make up at 4 am, brew myself a nice cuppa and play some NG4 the entire day
can't wait

>>723570305
I like tits and all, but those are honestly too big

>At the end of the week I will be playing Ninja Gaiden 4
I'm excited. First new game I bought in a while

Man I hope my game arrives by release.

>>723570598
There's seems to be a ton of physical copies out in the wild, Xbox does not give a hoot

>>723570527
Same, I've liked NG for a long time but I just assumed 3 killed the series. So seeing a new game genuinely makes me happy, NG didn't deserve to get raped like that.

>>723570821
>Same, I've liked NG for a long time but I just assumed 3 killed the series
Dont forget about Yaiba lol

>>723570821
It literally only exists because Phil Spencer said "wouldn't it be funny if I gave Team Ninja money to make a new NG"

>>723571185
Forgot about that, what did Ryu do to deserve that shit

>>723571185
SUCK MY FUCK
Entertaining just because of the sheer levels of edge desu

>>723570305
i like bigger saggers and all, but she's honestly wearing too much clothes

>>723569989
This but unironically. Can you imagine the threads being made if the shoe was on the other foot?

>>723564984 (OP)
Not playing these games until Irene comes back

>>723571251
>Forgot about that, what did Ryu do to deserve that shit
Both Yaiba and the DmC reboot was spearheaded by Inafune in his "japanese games are over" arc

>>723571450
Sonia is Irene.

>>723571450
Irene had a small cutscene in Razor's Edge where she bossed on Ayane

>>723571603
>>723571609
>blonde
Not Irene.

I only ever played ninja gaiden: dragon sword
:D

>>723571307
They unironically should bring back Yaiba as a Wario style gag character, I would love that

>>723571609
Ayane won that argument and mogged the hag simultaneously

>>723571803
That was the one Itagaki was the most proud of actually.

>>723565554
>midnight release
NOOICE

>>723571803

I kneel

>>723565554
Isn't that the Steam maintenance timeslot?

>>723571904
I remember liking it. Was cool how you would use the touch screen so much. And the slashes were cool.
I could see why someone would be proud of it. Was very unique.

>>723571903
Nah she got sonned by Chadrene

>>723569276
this is what gamers want

>>723564984 (OP)
Made for BWC

>>723564984 (OP)
where's the fur then?

>>723572186
>duke nukem forever 2
Grim

>>723571904
Because he made that game for his daughter. Ryu also beats the breaks off the Dark Dragon in that one which is pretty cool if you're a lorefag.

Ayane was my waifu since DoA on the PS2. What happened? Why does she look bogged? Did she get fat? Did she bear my child?

A game I'd actually pay for early access doesn't have early access. Fuck me

>>723572465
>Did she bear my child?
That would involve you having sex, so no

>>723571974
>>It's called Dragon Sword because it's on the DS
A ton of DS games had the subtitle abbreviated to "DS" actually, peak Nintendo whimsy

>>723572186
VTM2 is gonna cause a big melty on /v/ and everywhere else.

>>723572647
Sovl...

>>723572661
I hope its good but a decade in dev hell...

>>723572647
I bought this one because I though it was different from the PS1 version
I also bought Rayman DS
I honestly didnt know what I was expecting,cool games nonetheless

>>723564984 (OP)

"Only one thing weighs on me — I'm deeply sorry to all my fans that I couldn't bring you a new work. I truly am." —Tomonobu Itagaki, final post-death message.

Ninja Gaiden Black, Ninja Gaiden II, Dead or Alive 1 Ultimate, Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate, Dead or Alive 3 and Dead or Alive 4 didn't receive ports to modern platforms.
Koei Tecmo didn't allow Team Ninja to port NGB and NGII in the Master Collection and forced them to lie about losing the source code.
All the newcomers are playing the inferior Smegma versions.
All the underage zoomers that got bullied in the past have outnumbered the True Fans on /v/ and now they swarm Ninja Gaiden threads and claim that NG3:RE is the best NG game.
In the end, Koei Tecmo won... they succeeded in diminishing and slowly erasing the legacy of Itagaki by keeping his games inaccessible. As time goes on, his legacy will be diminished and erased even further.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZSOvfEMl4I
This masterpiece of gameplay, art, animation, music, confidence and beauty is playing on repeat in the background, as I remember all the memories. The sabotage and mistreatment of Itagaki by Tecmo and the splitting up of Team Ninja is without a doubt the greatest tragedy that occurred in the history of the gaming industry. Itagaki literally saved Tecmo from bankruptcy, is this how you repay him?
A curse upon you Yoshimi Yasuda the greedy liar.
A curse upon you Yosuke Hayashi the backstabber.

It is truly over for the True Fans of Ninja Gaiden.
Goodbye Itagaki Sensei, you fought well, but in the end you lost... I lost... the True Fans of Ninja Gaiden lost.

>>723572810
Bro even paid off journals said it's trash.

>>723575587
Hayashi designed the combat system of NG1. What you love.

>>723575180
You're supposed to be looking at her boobs

>>723576864
You can't imply that game development is a team effort and that there were more people than Itagaki that made these games good, that's illegal

any regional price nigga here? is the game expensive in your country?

>>723576864
Yes, when Itagaki had him on a leash and told him what to do. When he got the chance, he backstabbed everything Ninja Gaiden stood for and shat out Ninja Gaiden 3.

>>723576864
The first thing Hayashi did when he got to make a Ninja Gaiden on his own was to say beheading enemies was unrealistic, and so the amazing vanilla Ninja Gaiden 3 was released.

>>723578006
>The first thing Hayashi did when he got to make a Ninja Gaiden on his own was to say beheading enemies was unrealistic
Imagine believing such blatant corpospeak, the reason sigma 2 and vanilla 3 has censored gore is because japan's rating system is incredibly strict on dismemberment. Japanese Resident Evil 4 has censored decapitations too. They just wanted to make the games easier to sell in their home country

>>723564984 (OP)
there's no way this is in game

>>723564984 (OP)
You can see her jaw melt away on both sides lol

>>723570305
Ayane's breast are firmer

>>723579247
Hag aged Ayane at that
She's cheating nature somehow

>>723578397
Obviously not ya retard. Where you been these past 6-12 months? it's just AI slop.
I can do that same animation myself on my own PC, and even better than the OP's..

>>723579247
bags of sand

>>723579523
Seori is a gluttonous priestess who just sits around on her fat ass all day. Ayane is a fit kunoichi with a tight nice body

>>723579578
>I can do that same animation myself on my own PC, and even better than the OP's..
I don't believe you, show us
with several examples, ideally

>>723578385
Ah yes, the good ol' excuse of doing to appease the japanese market while also fucking the western release.

Companies who do that prepare a more graphic version for the international release, you stupid fuck. Like Capcom does with Resident Evil, and guess what, Razor's Edge immediately brought the decaptations back so fuck the parity with Japan all of a sudden.

Most fucked up thing about Ninja Gaiden 4 is that, because Ayane and Seori are only in the game during key cutscenes, that means all of their appearances are prerendered and can't have their outfits modded.

>>723579928
>Companies who do that prepare a more graphic version for the international release, you stupid fuck.
Literally how would you know, you're basing this solely on survivorship bias. There's probably a ton of games that got the whole game censored due to japan that you simply never find out about

>>723579960
It's 2k25, cutscenes are realtime

>>723581008
>he doesn't know

>>723581008
Bro...

>>723581781
>>723581814
They're pre-rendered? Wouldn't the filesize be insanely large if that's the case?

>>723582373
It kind of is, you just got used to insanely large filesizes and didn't think much about it. It's multiple times as big as the entire Master Collection.

>Prerendered cutscenes
>in 2025
Classic Platinum

>>723579960
oh man i am so disappointed

>>723579960
So people can't just rip the models and port them to Blender/UE? Shame...

>>723583209
They may still have models in the game's files. The cutscenes don't have CGI tier visuals, they're likely prerendered just so they don't look like garbage in the 120fps mode.

>>723583209
no the models are probably in the game anyways, just that the cutscenes themselves can't be modded

>>723583518
why would 120 mode affect cutscenes?

>>723572810
I can't imagine it being anything more than a competently mediocre game. I look at the footage and it makes me yawn.

>>723583616
If they're rendered in real time they'll use the same settings you're currently using when they begin. Try lowering your resolution to 320p in any game with real time cutscenes and tell me how your cutscenes look.

>>723564984 (OP)
>ai
The AI slop is getting good.

Also they sacrificed Tomonobu Itagaki in a masonic ritual to boost the sales and hype of this game? Just like they did to joker in Batman movie?

>>723583978
No, Itagaki graciously sacrificed himself to give the franchise one final boost

>>723583978
Yes, they got him hooked on cigs and booze 40 years ago so his death would promote NG4, real greezeball shit

>>723584182
The guy liked cigs and booze, and those likely didn't kill him. You think millionaires just die? Get real

>and those likely didn't kill him
lol
lmao

>>723582458
I noticed this just the other day. Why the fuck is Black 2 almost 100 GB when the entire master collection is 13?

>>723585079
4k textures

>>723572596
I had verified penis in vagina sex

>>723585570
who verified it?

>>723585618
She did

>>723585817
sounds like a bias party
not sure we can grant your claim as valid

The art director is cute

>>723585919
I have an encrusted memory card

>>723584624
Bro made a better game drunk than most people ever will

>>723565554
>8pm monday
Nice. I'm booting it up immediately after work.

>>723586492
Looks bat shit insane. Shouldn't have been allowed on the game.

>>723575587
>Ninja Gaiden Black, Ninja Gaiden II, Dead or Alive 1 Ultimate, Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate, Dead or Alive 3 and Dead or Alive 4 didn't receive ports to modern platforms.

All of those are playable on Xbox Series X. You can even use the original discs. Feels good to be an X bro sometimes.

>>723577552

>draws kaneki from tokyo ghoul and his tall older sister with big tits, high heels, and shibari
is there something in the water with japanese art director ladies? considering bayonetta exists, platinum has a pattern of this

>3 NG threads up
Whoa

>>723589295
This is pretty much the only place on the internet that cares about Ninja Gaiden, same goes for other Koei Tecmo franchises. Dead or Alive, Atelier, Dynasty Warriors. I've never seen them mentioned or discussed in any serious capacity outside of /v/.

>>723590289
True

>>723589295
/v/ is a CAGchad board

>>723591243
I wish
Any recommendations? I've already played all the mainstream ones

>>723591991
I'm a 30 y/o boomer who grew up with both NG and Platinum so I'm really excited for NG4

>>723591991
being a morrowind fag who actually played it is suffering

>>723591243
Reddit is CAG. We call them JAVs or HAGs around here.

>>723591991
I played ng black, ng2 and a bunch of platinum stuff so I'm excited. Ignore the dmc5 vs ninja gaiden vs bayonetta shitflinging. They are all great for different reasons. Except bayonetta 3, what the fuck were they thinking?

>>723592871
>Except bayonetta 3, what the fuck were they thinking?
Apparently the game started out as an Open World game but they couldn't make it work so it had to awkwardly pivot into a different design which is why it took so long and feels so messy

>>723593882
The very idea of making an open world Bayonetta is already so profoundly retarded that I don't even feel like cutting them some slack at all. The fully realised vision would have been trash too.

>>723592423
What does the H in HAG stand for

>>723594687
Harachter

>>723569276
16k followers is really the only statistic that matters. I know it's niche but that's pretty fucking grim.

>>723591991
>Played NG Black for 4 hours on PS3 and gave up
>played Ninja Gaiden 3 on the NES emulator for like 34 minutes once

I... am a Ninja Gaiden fan.

>>723593882
That actually makes a lot of sense. Gonna be sad if the same thing happens with metroid prime 4

The gameplay reminds me a lot of Mad World.

>>723595630
bro thought he was cookin with this

>>723594947
How? I've never followed a game before, didn't even know that was a thing you could do. And I'm familiar with numberfagging on this shit board, I've NEVER seen followers used as a metric

>>723564984 (OP)
dead or alive...
returns

Really like the OST so far.

>That actually makes a lot of sense. Gonna be sad if the same thing happens with metroid prime 4
i still don't understand this shit
"hey I know you waited 8 years for metroid and it releases in 2 months, check out this empty open world."

NINJA GAIDEN

FOUR

I just realised that the game is based off of Batman Beyond.

>>723596219
Batman Beyond didnt invent futuristic settings with a new main character

>>723596219
It's just ghostrunner (aka cyber samurai style for zoomers) unfortunately.

>>723596667
Then just who, or what, did?

>>723596964
Luv me some Ghostrunner

Watching 4's gameplay, the top Japanese game studios are still so far ahead of the industry.

>>723597162
western studios can't into action gameplay, never could
in general when it comes to designing games japs are better at genres with arcade roots, while westerners are better at genres with pc roots

>>723597023
Spider-Man 2099 did it before Batman Beyond did.
If you want to be more general with timeskips and new protags its pretty common in literature, Dune for example

Does it use Denuvo?

>>723598198
Assuming theyre not gonna hit everyone in the face with it at launch, no

Playing through NG2 white mod before 4 and my god between explosive archers and mages i can't decide who's gayer

>tfw ex-gf had the same size tits as ayane
how do i cope now /v/?

>>723598594
72 hour Ayane goon sesh

>>723598594
did you titty fuck her?

>>723598594
You broke up for a reason, dont dwell on it. Keep your chin up or you wont be able to see your next big titty kunoichi gf coming your way

>>723564984 (OP)
I'm glad we understand each other

>>723598594
She would've become a fatass anyway

The game's very gory.

>>723598142
The funny thing is that they keep trying, though. Like western studios dominate in FPS not just because they're better, but japs don't even try at all. But westerners keep thinking they're good enough to make action games and releasing absolute trash.

>>723579247
yeah cause they're fake

>>723601738
They're not fake just virtual

>game has hard lock on by pressing R3
It was a soulslike all along. No difference between this and chickslop like phantom blade zero

Nevermind the pterodactyl fight. I liked it at first. I think it's legitimately fun to get the hang of, but it's just so long, I keep getting raped and now I'm just abusing myself.

>>723602726
Just piercing void bro.

>>723598142
My schizo theory for why this is is that Japanese games mostly descend from early Western arcade games and ultimately from physical skill-testing machines, whereas Western games descend mostly from early PC RPGs and strategy games and ultimately from D&D and miniatures wargames. Just completely different goals, spatial mastery vs abstract simulation and narrative.

Does anyone have that webm of itagaki watching people playtest NG2 and there's the one guy holding the controller weird and button mashing?

>>723603206
thanks

>>723602946
The reason is pretty simple, Japs design the gameplay first and story/characters/setting later, while western devs to do the opposite. Itsuno talked about this during the making of the DmC reboot.

It's kamige.

>>723603078
>>723603206
You just know he hammed it up super hard with this outfit because they told him they'd be filming.

>>723603206
>Itagaki wore this outfit to Harada's wedding

>>723579247
Why she is so small? What they done to her tits?

>>723579247
I'll wait for the mod that restores her tits size

>>723603206
If you don't need to use the right trigger or button, that actually looks like it could be useful for preventing fatigue and switching between X and Y quickly

>>723571803
Ninja Gaiden: DS...
