This is the X-Box's answer to Ocarina of Time. I can't quite explain why but it's got the exact same soul as that game.
ok thanks
I agree but it isn't nearly as monumental. The ending is short and kinda "oh that was a nice game".OoT was special because it has a special mood throughout. It emanated a sense of "this is important" through its atmosphere and environments, and then it kind of one-ups itself when Link becomes an adult, and one-ups that again when you get to the climax in ganon's tower and see the ending.It just felt monumental.
>This is the X-Box's answer to Ocarina of Time.>I can't quite explain why but it's got the exact same soul as that game.Probably because Itagaki literally said OoT was one of the biggest influences on this game
>>737651924You know when you're in those underground caverns with the sand and statues? It's like the Spirit Temple devs from OoT were behind the same areas in NG04. You can feel it in the deliberation of the combat. Both games share the same strong Japanese gen X direction which creates that heavy atmosphere and sense of adventure, beautiful women and masculine bushido-minded stoic protagonists.
huh, that explains why this game also sucks dick.
>>737651659somehow team ninja shits out this masterpiece in like a couple of years, and then proceeds to make garbage and milk the exact same thing until the heat death of the universe
>>737651659I guess both have you going through the same place with new items to get somewhere new. Someone playing OoT expecting NGB would be weirded out by the focus on puzzles, and someone playing NGB expecting OoT would get to the first boss and start crying.
>>737651924>The ending is short and kinda "oh that was a nice game"Its meant to be a game that after beating you start it up again on the next hardest difficulty until you make your way to master ninja
You might be onto something. Seeing as how the sequel to both games are better in every single way and yet are hated for no fucking reason.
tendies couldnt even get past the tutorial
>>737652650>Someone playing OoT expecting NGB would be weirded out by the focus on puzzles,NGB is chock full of puzzles. You probably do as many puzzles as you fight enemies in your first playthrough, and some of the puzzles are legitimately Zelda level convoluted.
>>737654816ahahhaha what the fuck are you talking about troglodyte
>>737655302>t. never played NGB
>>737655469I can guarantee you ive played every version of NG1 more than youve played all of them combined, which is exactly why im laughing at your pathetically retarded statementname one fucking "convoluted" """"puzzle"""" in NGB, and just for the record if you think the one actual "puzzle" in the game was convoluted (the vault in the library) you might be genuinely retarded
>>737651924Wait people consider Gaiden Black a short game? It felt exhausting as hell to beat with all the challenging sections
>>737655760xbox logo climb
>>737656694I hope youre joking because its literally just a sequence of wall to wall runs with a jump at the end
Since this is the NG thread, what's the strongest weapon in NG history? For me, it's a toss-up between NGS1+/Master Collection Dual Katana and the Talons in NG2. Sure, Talons have easy delimbs with >Y and FS -> Izuna Drop, but the Dual Katana in Sigma is broken because of Rotate Y. Since NGS+/MC gives you a max Fire Wheel, you can stack DPS like crazy with Fire Wheel + RotateY + Azura Dragon Helm + GoM. Plus, it has Izuna Drop, Flying Swallow and a really strong counter that has a short, quick animation.Ah, I'll go with the NGS1 Dual Katana... It has no flaws. I posted this in another thread, but it died quickly. Wonder what Anons think is the most OP weapon in NG history.
>>737656913their uses in the itagaki games are too toolboxey and specialized to be directly called the blanket bestin NG2 at least though the scythe and the tonfa probably compete for that spot, and the scythe probably wins
>>737654739Tendie here. I'm past the tutorial in NGB. You can tell this is NGB because of the black ninjas in pic related. Screenshot from my Xbox. I'm not some fucking Snoy who doesn't know how to play games where the expectation is higher than listening to characters talk while walking in a straight line.
>>737657627try playing god of war 3 on titan next it's the majora's mask of snoy games with amazing puzzles
>>737658175The journos keep saying old GOW is problematic, so it's probably good.
>>737651659REALLY THE EXACT SAME SOUL?? LIKE THE FATHER SON AND THE HOLY SPIRIT IS DEEP WITHIN US AND WE ARE ALL THE GODS CHILDREN????
>>737656913NG3RE Scythe is absurd. I also believe that is the hardest game in the series by far but pretty much everyone who is into 3RE knows that you can use the scythe as a massive crutch, and if you watch a challenge video/ninja trial where someone uses the scythe they basically admit that they couldn't do it with any other weapon.
