I AM A NINJA GAIDEN

The Itagaki cultist were right

>>723757503 (OP)
Did IGN gave their usual 10/10 for Pokemon yet?

>>723757503 (OP)
>8/10
kek, it's garbage.

>>723757503 (OP)
Why are we pretending like an 8/10 is bad?

>>723757503 (OP)
https://www.xda-developers.com/ninja-gaiden-4-review-ps5/
Its a 6/10 game actually

[SAD NEWS] NINJA GAIDEN 4 HAS IS MORE WELL REGARDED THAN NINJA GAIDEN 2

The timeline of these threads are hilarious. Went from straight shilling to mindbreak

DMC chads stay winning

>have to buy all the skills/moves
>just buy our heccin DLC for 50,000 ninja coins!
Your response?

>>723757561
That was also an 8

>>723757503 (OP)
10 MINUTES BROS

>>723757630
It's pure cope from the people that have spent the last few months coping about NG4 being bad

>>723757776
Well maybe it is bad. Since when does /v/ put stock in mainstream game reviews?

>>723757649
Why do Android custom ROM developers even review PC/console games?

>>723757630
Because IGN gives every game 9 points too much

>>723757824
More like mindbroken shitposters

>>723757887
For shitpost fuel, them we forget about it within the week.

>>723757887
They're saying it's bad BECAUSE of the 8/10 reviews anon

>>723757852
This is just the Platinum standard

>>723757887
It's not bad because a lot of anons already played the leaked game lol, we've known for a few days that it's really good.

>>723757852
Play the game and unlock them. Same as essence, except you buy moves instead of level up weapons.

OG2 wins. No rematch.

>>723757786
This may be hard to believe but there’s more to a game than combat

>>723757503 (OP)
>8/10
>Shit
>Garbage
>Failure

?????
What the fuck happened to make people think an 8/10 game is bad? Shit back in the day a 6/10 wasn't even the worst thing ever. It's either a 10 or it's dogshit

>>723757953
We're bringing it back to Myspace.

>>723758007
See >>723757819
lol

did itagaki approve of ng4?

Buyane

You NGschizos were shitting on every action game under the sun and talking like this was the second coming of action game revival. You deserved a 8.

>>723758023
>Nooo muh hecking story
You've never played a NG game before

how long would it take me to play NG1-3?

>>723757824
Yeah, mindbreak of the NG2 schizos. The game has a higher score than NG2.

>>723758034
thats right king

>>723757852
I'm gonna buy perfect block, then get one or two abilities after each boss fight.

>>723758007
Itagakibro, you mostly have good tastes in games. The only issue I see is Kiwami 2.

Cannot wait for the porn of the fat titty new chick.

>>723758118

>>723757852
Damn imagine if Itagaki made a NG game where you had to buy upgrades. He never did that though (I assume, I've never played a video game in my life)

>>723758029
No one actually believes this it's just dumb shitposters

>>723758080
This

Imagine trying to tell me this is the true savior of the genre and dmc5 is the bad one. Please stay retarded /v/ you make me feel good about myself

>>723757824

>>723758174
I did!

>>723758023

I'm glad ninja gaiden will likely die after this you niggers just don't deserve good games.

Sorry, no time to deal with some random troon from Pookistan. Game launches in 5 minutes

>>723758080
those schizos hate this game and every ng game except black and 2 360

ok but where is it

he died 4 days before release anon

>>723758262
OH NO NO NO

>>723757824
Who's being mindbroken?
The ones that have been shitting on the game since it got announced? Yea I guess.

>>723758229
>It was always shit, therefore there is no need to improve anything

>>723758297
i'm aware. they also aren't saying the cause of death which usually implies a few things. pretty sad.

REVIEW BY SOMEONE WHO ACTUALLY KNOWS ACTION COMBAT

https://finalweapon.net/2025/10/20/ninja-gaiden-4-review/

>>723758239
>fuck wogs and pakis

>>723758403
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to appreciate Ninja Gaiden. The gameplay is so complex, you’d need a firm understanding of quantum physics just to parse the hitboxes. The hitboxes operate on a subatomic level and the enemy AI patterns are essentially chaotic systems governed by strange attractors. Ryu’s i-frames function like quantum tunneling events, letting him phase through damage in ways that defy classical mechanics. I’m currently developing a unified field theory that explains the Essence economy. But of course, that’s only for those who’ve cleared Path of the Master Ninja without taking Planck-scale damage.

>>723758385
do we get to play as her?

>>723758080
the same fags shitting on DMC5 are the ones shitting on this game

>>723757503 (OP)
IGN actually only operates on a 5 point scale despite scoring out of 10.

>6/10 and below are functionally the same score and you almost never see them=bad aka 1/5
>7/10=2/5, the basic default score they give to everything that isn't simply bad or weren't paid for
>8/10=3/5, middle of the road quality overall but above average enough to earn a little praise for some aspects
>9/10=4/5, legitimately good game
>10/10=5/5, paid for

In other words, Ninja Gaiden 4 is a 3/5 game. Not bad but not particularly good either.

>>723758339
>Fast = good
Why are 2fags like this?

>>723758080
>journos give it a 8 because it's too repeptitive
I don't give a fuck, faggot. When a journo says it's repetitive that means its good with zero filler.

an 8/10 for action game without fromsofware bonus is 10/10
retards here still don't understand this
>the gameplay is great, but there are no niggers and lgbtq representation and real world politics and anti white messaging and women are attractive which is unrealistic and the game is too hard...etc.

>>723758423
WE'RE FUCKING BACK

>>723758423
>5/10
LMAOO

>>723758262
>Yakumo's game has a higher score than Ryu's games
KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEK

LET ME IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!

I RESPECT YAKUMO'S STRENGTH

>>723758029
Game reviews work on a 5 point system, where 5/10 is absolutely irredeemable garbage, 6 is terrible, 7 is mediocre, 8 is fine, 9 is good, 10 is amazing.

>>723758339
We can only be glad you aren't getting what you want

i'm going to play for like 3 hours and go to sleep because i have work tomorrow morning :(

>>723758459
Since when do you fags take IGN's opinion as gospel

>>723758498
No, no. 5 out of 5. Just like your dick is 5 centimeters and and not 5 inches.

>Modern MicroJew made a genuine banger with actual coom designs and physics

>Ninja Gaiden 4's combat system is amazing and may be the best in the series yet, certainly the best since Ninja Gaiden 2. However, it suffers from pretty substantial issues such as repetitive enemy encounters, lackluster level design, and an underwhelming story. The Ryu sections also don't live up to the hype and you spend most of the game playing as Yakumo.
How do you respond without sounding mad?

Let me in you jap fucks!

Shocking

Look I’m actively looking for reasons to shit on it and so far all o got is that yakumo is a fag

The game surprisingly comes package with DLSS 4 rather than ancient version.

>>723759486
ys1+2, origins and oath in felghana are very story light (its well told but minimal). memories of celceta and ark of napishtim are a bit more story heavy. ys 7 -> onward is a lot more story heavy but i like em all

Who here is playing on a Series S?

Is this a first for gaming? Wow.

>>723759561
You are quite literally retarded and have very poor genetics.

>>723759561
>0.005ms of input lag
Too high

>>723759539
NGB is the greatest game of all time. That's fair.

>steam chart posting starts 5 minutes after release
I hate this gay ass fucking board

>>723759486
Yes. Some people dislike the party games but they are still good and super action focused (don't expect ng levels of depth). The story boils down to adol just fucking shit up with whatever ancient technology/ancient powers are being fucked with.

>>723759364
It was never like that you dumb faggot fuck it’s always been left trigger sides

Eat dicks

>>723758423
>story is beautifull told
Yeah guess how i know its a fake review

>>723759417
I mean, people who buy games that are advertised as hard probably enjoy hard games and have some incentive to keep struggling through the obstacles. Who the fuck plays dogshit like Cuphead or Viewtiful Joe? Those are the definition of Humble Bundle shovelware, no shit nobody makes it to their end.

this feels like a ps3 game (and that's a good thing)

so we doing jap or eng VA?

>>723759486
1 and 2 are literally auto attack with no sword button. it's fun at max speed
oath in felghana and origins are weird overhead 3d platformers where the boss fights turn into psycho bullet hell
the ones after that are more casual generic action rpgs but you can do combos and shit in them at least. they're fun enough

>>723759561
sure it "adds" input lag but most people are more concerned with how it adds diarrhea and AI hallucinations to the entire screen
idk why double digit IQs on hand-me-down toasters are suddenly extremely proud of unlocking HDTV framerate interpolation circa 2009 and want to add it to every game

>>723759646
Yakuza/Like a Dragon games also do that now since Yakuza 7.

>>723759704
Baldur's Gate is part of the D&D IP which is orders of magnitude more popular than NG.

>>723759646
yakuza 7 has it but that's the only other instance
i can't believe they would bother in a game where 90% of the scripts is TWOOOAAAH

>>723757819
I considered NG 2 a solid 4/10, NG Black I thought was an 8/10. NG 4 must be a 2/10.

Never played any of the NG games, should I jump in at 4?

>>723759878
that was an interesting case because way forward wrote their own retarded fan fiction, so the choice is either the new american canon or the original kunio-kun
at least you have the option...

A lot of the low reviews are saying the story is shit. I don't think they have every played a ninja gaiden game before.

>>723757503 (OP)
Cookieface looking up and wondering why his franchise turned to shit

>>723759856
Looks like Yakumo didn't bring a wider audience, which is the set purpose of every protagonist change in any given franchise.

Expect the Sigma / Black / Razor's Edge version of NG4 to feature Ryu only in the cover, and he will be playable by default on the first playthrough.

So far I love the need to use Bloodraven attacks to react to enemy actions.

I love it so far. Yakumo sounds like he's doing a shitty vergil impression

I like it so far. The dodging throws me off a little honestly, I don’t know if I should block more or dodge.

>>723758990
Armpit status?

30 bucks canadian, but 100gb install. I'm gonna pass.

>>723760389
Why didn't they also review Tales of Graces F Remastered or the new Atelier?

>>723760101
Nah it's pure SOUL.

>>723760406
>gay 90lb redditor who doesn't play action games whose opinion nobody gives a shit about

this is just nier automata 2 (and that's a good thing)

>>723760548
? It's 53 gb

>>723758229
It had cool ones, and also 1 had great level design

>>723758023
>>723758085
>>723758229
>>723758310
hmm...deja vu

>>723760548
gay pass is not buying the game

they gave wuthering waves a 7/10 btw

Remember that to any score you need to add 3 points for the Gamepass tax and substract 2 for the "It's now more accesible and less problematic" bonus

>>723760101
People who play Ninja Gaiden in English miss out on this.

And he died off screen? Damn, the disrespect.

>>723760256
Then be a god for the next 2.5 games, limpdick

>>723760592
This is the opposite of Nier
>shit story
>god tier combat
Nier has terrible combat

>>723760660
Never noticed how kino this artwork was before.

>>723760679
let's see how yakumo does for the next 2.5 games

I am playing on the xbox ally x with pc game pass. The blood looks good. The evading feels goid.

>>723757503 (OP)
>Game is confirmed to be slower
I'm looking at it right now and it's fast as fuck. Why would they lie?

>>723760658
Damn, Dark dragon looks like THAT?

>>723760245
>only Yakumo in the very final cutscene
I can't believe I used to be mad back when Devil May Cry 4 was released and it introduced Nero as new protagonist, looking back Dante was treated like fucking royalty and was in the very first cutscene, and in the final one as well, the Special Edition released years later even expanded Dante's appearance in the final cutscene.

Thankfully I held on and didn't buy NG4 on release, I will wait for the DLC to see how Ryu is treated there.

>>723757503 (OP)
that fucking nu izuna drop animation makes my pinus soft

>8/10 now it's bad
I don't care about this game but, really?
Is 8/10 now bad?

What is the purpose of Yakumo? Who asked for him?

>>723760725
We won’t lol

>>723760589
so ign

THEY TURNED NINJA GAIDEN INTO LOCK ON SLOP WHY THE FUCK IS THERE NO RESET CAMERA ON THE TRIGGER FUCK THIS GOYSLOP

>>723760658
too high for that shit trash

game uses 310.2.0
don't forget to force the transformer model (preset k) in the nvidia app fellas

>>723760808
they gave genshin a 9 and its worse than wuthering waves

>>723760454
They technically already did this in the very first game, Ayane tells you to look for the colour blue to progress, and certain objects in the environment are in fact blue. Pipes you can shimmy across, blue. The one door frame out of 3 where you should go to progress, blue. They only do it early on but still. This shit just looks retarded though.

>>723760753
>izuna animation
NG3 wins again

>>723760773
WE JUST NEEDED A TRYHARD ZOOM TWINK OKAY!!!! BE GRATEFUL!!!

>IGN gave this and Ghost of Yotei the same score
FUCKING DISGUSTING!

>>723760770
>now
8.8

It’s indeed fun don’t let anyone lie and tell you it isn’t but it’s not better than 2 or of black. It’s clearly the 3rd best in the franchise tho

>>723760773
Fujoshi

>>723760658
It's anti cheat malware gacha slop

>>723760750
that game is a bloody palace sim which is 101 floors of dante action
like ng4, the story is irrelevant

Honest question
Why do legacy action games feel the new to introduce a younger/edgier protag to replace the original?

>>723760909
8/10 is the safest score possible

>>723760943
its a ps5 game

>>723760937
God I can tell this bitch is a huge cunt

>>723761015
This but unironically.

>>723760909
they gave this ng4 an 8/10 and it doesn't even have a they them protag?

>mfs were speeding up webms of the gameplay and now its about to get exposed for being grandpa speed
OHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

If the review complains about the story, even more so about the actual flaws (lack of weapons and enemies for Ryu) then into the trash it goes. Also:
>game starts with block on R2 by default
Why? Even if it was the case in 1, even modern TN games have bloxk on L1

>>723760995
Not enough oldfags are willing to buy the game. They gotta trick casuals into buying it as well.

>>723760995
Ryus moveset was perfected in razors edge. What else can they do

>>723760389
good question

>>723761094
This isn't a (full) TN game.

>>723760995
NG4 needs new blood, whether oldfags want to admit it or not this game needs fucking zoomers to buy it.

>>723760995
It's not about action games. The Japanese just like changing the main protagonists of long running series. See every SNK game series or Capcom games for example.

i want a link to a torrent NOW

>the shop music
Holy shit

>>723760995
Generational shift, suits always believe a brand must stay young and hip. Popularity is ignored more of than not, a new protagonist must replace the old to capture a new audience, even a wider one if they are lucky enough.

How do I change him out of this gay ass default costume? I prefer the dlc at least

>>723760773
dmc faggot trend about introducing new playable characters

>>723757503 (OP)
>8/10 from everyone
>no outcry of kino being back on the menu

Okay so it’s mid
Damn shame
Pack it up
Maybe we’ll try again in 10 years

>>723760995
Would you be happier if they were replaced by some other ninja similar to Ryu.

I actually get why devs do this, sticking with one character only ever works if you are insanely popular and it's good to mix it up when youve done everything with the character your series started with. I don't know why it's always edgy/young replacements though

are yakumo and ryu the only playable characters? do we get to use the semen demons?

>>723760995
if they gave ryu the bloodraven shit people would cry even harder than they already are

>>723761094
block is L2 originally zoomie

>>723761127
Leave well enough alone lol

>>723760995
Millenials have aged out of the target audience, now Gen Z is the target audience.

>>723761230
According to ign za legends is the same quality as ninja gaiden. All journos should kill themselves.

Game is kino but now I have to sleep

>>723761217
Devil May Cry didn't sideline Dante this hard, he still had 40% of DMC4 to himself, and DMC5 brings back Vergil to retrace the popular rivalry he had with Dante, while Nero just stays in the middle of them, Capcom by now has gotten the memo Dante simply cannot be replaced.

>>723758085
>>723758085
Not just story, the levels and the structure of the rest of the game still matter. A game could have great combat mechanics but shitty enemies and bosses.

>>723761274
Expect skin mods for the girls within 2 weeks.

>>723757503 (OP)
I still haven't even played the second or third games

>>723761367
>skin mods
using a male's skeleton which makes them shit always, which is why i want to know if they are playable in the game

>>723761363
>Capcom by now has gotten the memo Dante simply cannot be replaced.
That's why there's no DMC6.

>>723761303
but so what? for new generation, Ryu might as well be a new character.

>hitstop slop
looks worse than smash ultimate.

>>723757503 (OP)
Just in and so far I'm not sold on Yakumo's moveset or mechanics and the game had a tutorial where I can't die followed by me running for like 30 seconds through empty caves so the dialogue wouldn't be interrupted. Not saying it's bad but not a great first impression.

I'm playing it on the Deck right now. Runs better than NG2B, but the visuals are rough.

>>723761371
ok here's a story recap
a bunch of guys summon a big fucking monster which ryu kills
enjoy 4

Ok, Yakumo "feels" very Platinum, Im all in for both styles packed in 1 game, I just wish we had Ryu other weapons sooner

>>723761182
This

>>723761436
Go away tendie adults are talking

>>723761363
>Capcom
Itsuno wanted to replace Dante, Capcom executives forced him to keep the sparda ojisan.

>>723757561
>>723757853
>y-yeah ermmmm they're still biased!!!!!!
bad day to be that anon

>>723758023
there's nothing more to the GAME than combat and combat adjacent things like enemy design, arena design, etc.
Retard tourists that killed my hobby will disagree and wank to novelty slop and b tier writing dou

>>723761425
While I know a few American zoomers who think Ryu is cool, Japanese Gen Z are into Yakumo's design more nowadays. It's "in".

>>723761278
Yeah, whatever. You understood what i said

>144 fps limit
>350w
>160 fps limit
>450w
somethings not right here

>>723761489
rent free

Ryu is only playable for 2 missions and ng+

>>723757771
I dont trust any of the team ninja early release feedbacks

>>723761418
The leading director of the series left, that's why there's no DMC6. Meanwhile DMC5 keeps selling and has reached 9 million copies this year, Capcom would need to carefully appoint a new lead to keep the series going.

>>723761519
Japanese Gen Z are tasteless retards

seori makes my peepee hard. all criticisms are no longer valid.

>>723761501
Nta but honestly its way too high for a pokemon title like that

>>723761436
You can turn it off retard

>Auto-Cutscene skip is an option
More games should have this.

>>723761412
>Man's skeleton
>Yakumo
Pick one

>>723761458
How does he handle compared to Ryu?

>>723760937
see I knew that the chud phenotype was being passed down through women.

>>723761647
People don't realize that platinum is a top tier studio

>>723761623
She is dead and will never appear again, so there goes your chances to see her again.

Is anyone playing on a toaster? I have a 580 and I'm not expecting much but I'm curious.

>make pretty fun game
>ruin it by having new character
I haven’t gotten to ryu whenever that happens but playing with him in this combat all through would’ve made it the best in the series

>>723761623
What would you do in this situation, /v/?

It's Jetstream Faggot.

>>723761604
>Meanwhile DMC5 keeps selling
I wonder why.

>>723761742
submit

>>723761519
Yakumo screams of Gen Z appeal yes, but if the next Famitsu round up doesn't have Ninja Gaiden 4 selling expressive numbers then he isn't really "in".

>>723757503 (OP)
Sorry but I'm waiting for The Electric Underground to give me my opinion on the game!

>>723761547
higher gpu usage means higher voltage which means higher power

>>723761742
cum

WHEN DOES THE GAME START THERE'S TOO MUCH CUTSCENES IT'S AN HOUR OF CUTSCENES ALREADY FUCK OFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

>>723761519
Americans think traditionally masculine stoic adult males are the best protagonists.
Japanese think that feminine quirky teenagers make the best protagonists.

This is why when they localized NieR, they changed who you played as entirely in the NA release and the game was all the better for it.

>Hideyuki Hori is 71 years old
This will probably the last Ninja Gaiden game where he voices Ryu Hayabusa.

>>723761814
he needs his friends to beat the game for him and explain what a parry is

OH NO BROS IT'S NOW TWO WHOLE POINTS ABOVE NINJA GAIDEN 2!

>>723761506
There's also pacing, puzzle design, environments, secrets, music, audio and exploration. All of that made the original Ninja Gaiden a better game than Ninja Gaiden 2, outside of the crazy spectacle that was the combat.
Sigma gutting what few puzzles there were in 2 only made it even more soulless.

>>723761701
It would help if most of their games weren't Nintendo exclusives.

>>723761827
There'san option to auto-skip cutscenes.

>>723761758
>Blatantly copying Sam
How are they getting away with this?

So this IP is dead forever now huh. Looking at what games are getting praised nowadays and what flops and gets shit on even here convinced me that emulating 24/7 until I die wasnt such a bad idea. Im 27 but I feel like a turbo boomer while looking at current industry trends and what average consumer praises and wants.

Chat does anyone else not have the DDD costume for pre-ordering?

>>723761742
Why did they give her such humongous udders??????

>>723761770
Because it is popular? If price cuts were guaranteed sales then Master Collection would be breaking records, but alas it isn't, Ninja Gaiden can't sell outside its bubble and the early Ninja Gaiden 4 numbers on Steam only furthers that notion.

>>723761892
It's literally only astral chain and 2 games and even thirdies can emulate them on phones

>>723761936
so people could draw her lactating

>>723761876
I think I'm enjoying NG4 even more now I'm playing it because I know people like Mark are going to hate it off the first hour alone

>>723761928
I look like this.

https://x.com/shirrakogaming/status/1980413034431668688?s=46
Yep. Seems like it doesn’t play like Ninja Gaiden and is more just a Bayonetta rehash.

>>723761951
Yeah but it's literally only because normies are retarded and it has the wahoo pizza man and teh memes xD

>>723761701
Also TM/Plat whoever, is of the few studios I see that put a direct upgrade for their deluxe edition without scamming people.

>>723761770
DMC is mainstream IP. Majority of its fanbase are redditors who post Vergil chair memes and loved Netflix show. Comparing DMC to Ninja Gaiden is retarded when entire series sold less than DMC5 btw fun fact.

I know story isn't important but 'Ryu didn't really kill the Dark Dragon it actually nearly destroyed Tokyo' is pissing me off

Is the parry mechanic actually well implemented or can you tell they added it just because it's the trendy thing to do?

>no real directional input in combos yet
GAY

I am going to absolutely DESTROY my dick tonight to Seori thoughts, thank you Team Ninja for keeping the tradition going!

>>723761951
>Ninja Gaiden 4 numbers on Steam only furthers that notion.

Because its on gamepass lmao. It's basically free.

So i guess Japan forgot how to make true action games aside from soulslikes huh?

It's called Ninja Gaiden 4 because Ryu is only playable in 4 levels.

>>723762096
Are all the environments in this game as soulless as this screenshot? Looks like some put in 'rainy cyberpunk city in East Asia' into an AI.

It seems like these proto action games are going away without meme status or social media good goy points. I have lived through so many genre extinctions but this one hurts.

>>723762185
Do you speak in language other than doomer drone?

>>723762180
KEKW

>>723762031
what an absolutely retarded critique
fromsoftware has made the same game like 6 times now
linkin park has made the same song over 100 times now
if the formula is good there's no need to innovate

>>723762067
Can't stroke the new protagonist's dick by keeping Ryu as the immeasurable wall that easily defeated the Dark Dragon and destroyed the Dark Dragon Blade.

>>723757561
>what about nintendo?
rent free

>>723762185
I've ran through a few more completely empty box rooms than I'd have thought at this earlystage I have to say

>>723762072
did you like the counter attack in the other 3d ng games?

>>723761159
I'm a zoomer and I'm not buying it because they sidelined Ryu and it's $70.

>>723762217
There was never a chance of NG4 being as good as DMC5. Even NG at its peak never came close.

>>723762232
No

>>723762031
>he says while praising literal asset flips like God of Last of Us,Borderlands or AC Shadows
Like why people blindly ignore some legacy IPs being derivative as fuck design wise but then magically open their eyes about other games lol? I agree with him but what the actual fuck is wrong with normgroids who simply stay completly blind when certain games have exact same 1:1 issue.

>>723762180
Yep, poetic humiliation ritual for Ryu.

>>723762180
>>723762251
2 out of 19 actually

His counter argument

>>723762275
Yes

Offtopic but are AMD Enhanced Sync and Anti-Lag any good? Last I tried I remember it making my game look unstable while reading a constant 60fps. (120hz monitor btw)

>>723762290
every main ng game, dmc 1, 3, 4, bayonetta 1 and 3, mgr and baldr sky are all better action games than dmc5

>>723762067
Ryu did kill the Dark Dragon. It keeps coming back to life.

>>723762324
Because Shirakko is multiple third worlders on a YouTube channel and not 1 guy.

i dont get how the game can be this ass unless they somehow hired the retards that di wo long to make this, at least i can finally lose any hope on platinum games making anything decent

>>723762356
and read the reply retard

>8/10
>Bad score
Huh? No one actually believes that 8/10 is a bad score, right?

>>723762031
thanks bro i was desperate to hear what retards on twitter think. that's why i came to 4chan and not fucking twitter.

Yo where are the enemies

>>723762387
Don't use anti lag. Use chill and lock your fps to 120

>>723762389
>'DMC5 is bad' meme
When is this going to end?

>>723762221
>racing genre dead even NFS is put on hold
>3d beat em ups dead

>3d platformers dead apart from Nintendo IPs
You will get 1000 soulslikes,arpgs and roguelikes every single year and you will be happy lmao.

>hdr set to 400 nits by default
well that is an odd choice

>>723762290
DMC5 isnt that good desu, it's just more accessible and popular.

>>723761887
All "modern" CAG have at best serviceable level design, and usually it's total shit. They don't commit neither to the platformer level design (like in ninja shadow of darkness) nor to the beat em up design (like in spikeout and slashout).

>>723762483
What if I can only run the game at 60fps max or 90fps before drops. (FSR Balance lol)

>>723762217
Everyone is on Game Pass, chud.

>>723762031
Same guy who said Silent Hill f is the best Silent Hill game.

>reviews confirms you only play as Yakumo for most of the game, like 80% of it and the rest as only Ryu.
Ryubros...

>>723762495
DMC5 is only good with mods.
>t. 1k hours

>>723762587
Imagine lying online

Brutally mogged by SEKINO

>>723762495
dmc5 is the "juggling sandbags" meme but for real except the sandbags die too fast to do cool juggles and they fucked up jump cancelling

>>723762579
EVERYONE knew this was the case when it was leaked Ryu only had the dragon sword.

>>723762579
I don't mind it if it's fun.

I don't like playing as v in dmc5 because he sucked.
I don't like playing as viola in bayo 3 because she SUPER sucked.

I gave up a night of getting my dick sucked and watching evil dead 2 with Chinese food for this.

I don’t regret it at all so far

>>723762587
>>723762624
>Still no LDK or Turbo modes for PC

>>723762674
What was Viola's gimmick anyway? I never bothered with 3.

>>723759878
That was River City Girls zero, aka an old Kunio game, the localization it had was just fan-fiction to make RCG canon, even though Kyoko and Misako only show in that one game.
Thankfully they included a proper localization of the original game.

>>723762624
How is that a lie? There are many people with thousands more hours still playing the game.
>>723762679
That's why mods exist.

>>723762682

>>723762650
Plaitinum lied and said it was about 50/50, not 80/20.

>>723762609
Lmao

my wife is so cute /v/

>the big titty priestess had plastic surgery and eyelid modifications
interesting

So far this is definitely more Platinum than Team Ninja, more Bayonetta 4 than Ninja Gaiden 4 in my opinion

>>723761827
It literally lets you play on the first 3 seconds

>>723762495
Zamn that punching bag never saw that coming. 5 is DMC flanderized.

>>723762579
Yeah, on,y 4 missions out of 19 missions, the leak last week confirmed the exact number.

The fact they kept that exact information hidden but were pretty quick to say you can replay the entire game as Ryu after finishing it once was clearly damage control in retrospect.

>>723762624
>every single high level dmc player went back to dmc4 and 3se
lol.

>>723762609
Yeah? Well, I'll be the one who wins because I'm just gonna beat up whoever is leftover. Haven't played any of these games, btw.

>>723762798
Is that toobie???

yellow paint oh no no

>>723762871
>third worlder is watching a stream
silence, peasant

>>723762812
Yakumo feels very Platinum, yes. Its cool that eventually you can play the game with either character, but the vanila release limits Ryu a lot

>>723762812
That last time TN was left alone to make NG a sequel we got 3 vanilla. The last time Platinum was left alone we got Bayo 3. Both these developers needed eachother to reign themselves in for NG4 to be a solid game.

>>723762798
What PS3 game is she from?

VALKYRIE ELYSIUM

>>723762831
>5 is DMC flanderized.

>>723763008
Optional objectives to get ninja bux

>>723762913
I don't like how most of his moves take him into the air so far, I assume it's his thing but meh

Itagaki died for this

>>723762735
mostly she's just simplified
also a lot of her moveset is dmc1 references complete with doing round trip to switch to bare hand mode
she is fun but it's annoying how often they switch back and forth. also Bayonetta has a jillion very convoluted moves in that game and there's not enough game to see them all

>>723758403
yeah because its actually hard rather than browncoded zoomer niggerslop like ninja reddit 4

>installed it on hard drive
>won't even open
>installed it on ssd
>it just works
Yeah okay.

>>723763136
it's using direct storage and that requires ssds, might be why

>>723762849
>literal who’s

Omg like really?

Game downloaded, now to wait for a completed save file so I can play as Ryu.

I'm already getting shit on in that Fiend Busa first encounter, fuck.

>>723763105
B-b-but it’s made with uncompromising design!!!!!!!

>>723762735
Her gimmick was having a far worse parry compared to bayonettas's dodge that you cant do if you don't have her katana (which happens for almost all of her heavy attack combo paths). She can also summon Cheshire to fuck shit up (btw this also takes your katana away so you can't parry)

where the fuck is wind run?

Who gives a fuck about who you play as, Ryu is boring as shit

>Ryu has one weapon
>Ryu has 4 stages
>Game is just "PLEASE LIKE NERO- I MEAN YAKUMO"
>Ayane not playable
Fuck off

I'll buy it on sale.

>>723763051
Thats Raven clan for you.

>>723763105
it's not hard on your first run poser kun

Fuck, Seori nip voice makes me hard, but aninations have english lipsyc which us a bit disstracting

>>723763521
Yes its good and it harkens back to DMC5s shop and van music. Not even trying to start a flame war.

>>723763397
Wrong, not buying this game.

>>723763603
I actually like yakuchad it'd be so repetitive to just Plat Ryu again. Maybe new weapons would fix it but Idk.

I love the gameplay on both characters though

dude why is there so much running through empty arenas

>Finally have the chance to play but in an hour I'm going to work again
Sigh... anyway what do you guys think so far, having fun?

Now that the game is confirmed not to bring any of the new audience Koei Tecmo desperately wanted, as only the regular NGfags bought it; maybe the threads will grow calmer once the shills vacate it now that their job is close to being done.

>>723763706
Hiding loading screens.

Man I'm not feeling Yakumo's style at all so far

>>723763820
He is about 90% of the game.
:)

Dude the music in this game alone makes it worth it. The fucking pause menu is godtier

Unfortunately, NG2fags will continue to be mindbroken.

The store page says 100gb. If it's 53, then I may get it.

Pretty much every basic combo starting with light (l) and ending in heavy (h) makes Yakumo go into the air so:
l h
l l h
l l l h
All makes him go into the air in different ways, with l l l l h being the only one that keeps you on the ground.

As a NG3 enjoyer, I like it so far. It's definitely not a pure NG game, but I think it a nice blend between Platinum's typical style and NGs gameplay.

Shop music is comfy indeed

At this rate, I'll wait for the Sigma or Black edition that actually has content.
