I think you should play Tenchu 1 for the PSX (and don't worry too much about a 100% stealth run your first playthrough.)Its a masterpiece.

Cover alone tells me it's gonna look like shit, so I'll pass. Whichever one was on og xbox was better anyway.
>>730675561faggot
>>730675561TRVKIE. toy story lookin ahh ninja uncslop
2 was better.
>>730675335But the enemy is skilful and rooflessI fear themNOT
>>730675828My only qualm with 2 is the total lack of level BGM, such a shame considering how good and iconic Asakura's music is for Tenchu.It was an upgrade in every way but that.
>>730675828worse gameplay, worse animations, no musicits a total downgrade made by totally different devs
fromsoft will never make a tenchu game, and if they do it will end up being rollslop
>>730676231All false
>>730676319sekiro was a good enough spiritual successor thoughever
>>730675561it definitely looked pretty bad
>>730675335Don't, it's a piece of crap. Tenchu's reputation is earned entirely with Tenchu 3, don't play anything else
>>730675335/v/ doesn't play good stealth games>>730675335
>>730677318no cap frfrfrfr67
>>730675335I think you should play Tenchu Z instead
Fatal Shadows is the best one.t. 43yo owner of every Acquire game ever made.
>>730676450lollmao
>>730676450That piece of shit doesn't even have functional stealth
>>730677482Yeah bro I'm sure 12 year olds are all busy playing Tenchu 3 the 23 year old game, it's a hot topic these days
Sure smells like a bunch of dusty ol uncs around here!
>>730675335ok i will play Tenchu 1 for the PSX.I just Grand Mastered Wrath of Heaven and Fatal Shadows on all characters.
>>730675335good game
>>730677486Shame we dont get this on steam. My lapton cant run xbox360 emulator.I hate fromsoft, such a shitty publisher locking great IPs on consoles
I'm playing Shinobido right now and damn is it bittersweet. It's so close to being great but it has so many little quirks that bring it down. The movement has the potential to be really fun and fluid but it's also too loose and I can't say I understand the decision to make your sprint so absurdly slippery. The combat system is also somewhat at odds with the way the game is designed. On one hand I understand they want the game to be stealth focused and nerfing you in combat to push that. These are the guys that made Way of the Samurai, they know how to make a great combat system, but that clashes with how often the game wants you to engage in combat still.Limitless scrolls are super dumb and I don't get how they made it into the game in their current state
>>730675887Everybody rags on the voice acting, but having heard it so much growing up that I can recite most lines by heart, I genuinely enjoy it>>730676231Nope, both were made by Acquire>>730675537LOOKS LIKE YOU CHOSE THE WRONG PARTY TO CRASHhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zclzlxDIRQ
>>730684006feels like when b-team made dark souls 2. Tenchu 2 all the soul, grittyness, graphics, and good game design went out the window
>>730675335I like most major stealth series but Tenchu just feels like ass to me. I could never get into it.
>>730675561that was 3
Did any of you play the multiplayer vs mode in Tenchu WoH? It was *extremely* kino.
>>730677486Does it emulate smoothly yet? Haven't been keeping up with xenia.
>>730684275It's such a shame that extra VS modes are no longer a thing in vidya. The more advanced games get the less 'for fun' they become
>>730675335Based and Tenchupilled.>>730677486I didn't like how Tenchu Z removes the killcams. Other than that it was a nice spinoff. I like how you can actually create a character and it has plenty of customization.
>>730675335I tried it a week ago, the complete lack of instructions makes it really hard to play, but I guess you are supposed to read the manual.I had to try a few times the first level until I learned how to block lmao. It was fun, I should keep playing
>>730684275Gun nigga was insanely OP and you can't convince me otherwise
>>730684376All the extra modes are online now and once the servers are gone you can't play them anymore.
>>730684141Its not a pure stealth game. The combat has just as much care and is even more fun than the stealth. Theres tons of tools and techniques to use in all the good Tenchu games when fighting groups of enemies. The devs didnt expect you to 100% the first playthrough, its similar to Sekiro, theres stealth but it isnt the whole focus
>>730684275I played it a few times with a friend but I think it was too complicated for him, we were both only 12 years oldi wish there was a decomp for this game with like online MP
>>730675335Wrath of Heaven is the peak of Tenchu.
>>730684439Games in the PS1 era actually had something called "Learning Curves" Anon. You can't just straight up get filtered after you died a few times. Persevere. You dont need a manual.
Tenchu 1-3 PURE SOVLTenchu FS SOVLTenchu Wii Okayish, 22% sovlTenchu DS 14% sovl>>730677486Absolutely zero sovl (but kind of fun if you have someone to play with)
>>730684734Wrath of Heaven is only good because you can tell its a love-letter fan-game to Tenchu 1. But Tenchu 1 is still peak, every nuance of the game engine is literally perfect. I still love WoH's aesthetics and extended movelist but theres a couple of *really shit* levels
>>730684502My memory is hazy, but I think his special was pretty much a straight up oneshot. I recall the demonfag (final boss of the main game?) to be insane.>>730684706>i wish there was a decomp for this game with like online MPI'd pay money for that.
>>730685071thats the beauty of Tenchu 1 and WoH. The NPCs feel like they could be controlled by a human and it would still play well. It reminds me of Star Wars Jedi Academy where the Sith are just cpu controlled multiplayer bots
Bushido Blade was better.
>*teleports behind you*>*mogs your entire franchise* pssh...nothin personell kid
>>730685812forgot my image
the REALEST nigga ever put into a video gameGoes from a goofy kid to STONE COLD instrument of JUSTICEJAP ASS NIGGA GOING HARD AS FUCK!!!!!!!!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVEeGtO0Px4
I wouldn't go that far but I wish From made an actual tenchu game over whatever the FUCK Sekishit was.
>>730675335I can't enjoy these console stealth games after playing Thief. Thief is just so obviously superior in both gameplay and atmosphere. I'm sure these games are fun on their own though.
>>730686423Because Thief is awesome for sure.Tenchu is fun as it's own thing because you play as a ninja and do very cool and visceral kills and fight real bosses. The approach to the stealth is a lot more arcade for the better and worse. I hope the slow mfs working on Gloomwood will deliver.
>>730686423they're not really the same kind of game at all.
tenchu and thief are my favorite games ever
>>730675335Man I like this game but it played like shit on the emulator I played it on. Enemies were seeing me through walls, I assume it had something to do with walls getting culled. That said, I play 3 on occassion with xemu and I really enjoy that game. Here's hoping xemu fixes its cutscene lag.
>>730675335I can't I'm playing Butcher Bay right now.
>>730689153why don't you play the ps2 version of 3
https://youtu.be/SpPLGtG2Nk8?si=BlqaSXMYQ7UjLf_bCure the Princess is still such a great piece of music and I enjoy it to this day.The way the guards say "you!" Is also etched into my brain.
Tenchuu (天誅) means divine punishment. It's a very out-dated term nowadays.
>>730689510why is it outdated
I remember playing this when I was younger, showing my dad the ass armor for Ayame and him thinking it was cool as hell
>>730689564It's just a term that medieval Japanese commoners would use. Like how you won't hear anyone using the word scoundrel unless it's to be old-timey.
>>730686350yeah it's kinda sad that aside from AC they're apparently all-in on souls now. not even farming the IP out to other studios
>>730675335For me, it was messing around in debug mode for hours and hours.
>>730689363nta but the xbox release has some additional content, a few missions and stuff like dragging bodies
