Started the first game, any tips? Also do I buy 4?
>Also do I buy 4?commo sense answer no logic answer . noat least wait till you finish the first 3 to know if you like it before buying 4 . which still would be no because the main character gets replaced so that means the game is instantly shit
>le angry ninja zombie faceKill yourself, nobody cares, stop making the same threads
>>748967220Don’t play it like DMC or BayonettaNG is about survival and efficiencyStyling and long combos are reserved for pro players to have funThe ranks are irrelevant Just get through the game
>>748967220>Also do I buy 4?Yes, it's the 2nd best Platinum game ever
>>748967220>Started the first game, any tips?Smegma versions are aboinations. You wasted your money.Should have bought NGB and NGII if you have an Xbox, if not, then you should have waited for these games to come to PC (very soon) with the Xbox Backwards Compatibility on PC program:https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2026/07/22/xbox-backward-compatibility-on-pc/As for NG3:RE, it is dogshit and only liked and promoted by tertiary subhuman zoomeroids.>Also do I buy 4?Yes, NG4 is a love letter to NGII.NG4 is one of the best games ever made and by far the best action gaming experience on PC thanks to its amazing and optimized engine for 120FPS gaming. I enjoyed NG4 at 1440p 180FPS LOCKED with perfect framepacing and G-sync at max settings with the lowest input latency and delay I've ever experienced in all of gaming.I hope Platinum Games is using this same engine for TMNT: The Last Ronin.
It's crazy how the schizo never fails to appear in an NG thread, no matter the time he will always show up
>>748969570yep the negroid schizo always shows up every time
>>748967220Know that being guard broken does not mean you're defenceless. Learn about essence mangement and how UTs work. 4 is a good game, but you should continue playing through the series to know if it's for you.
>>748969570He is shitting up steam forums too https://steamcommunity.com/id/Forlorn1337/posthistory/
>>748969570The schizo is based because he fact checks Anons who lie about NG4.https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/748613176/#748621035>Anon, a bandwagoner who clearly did not play NG4 and is repeating e-celeb talking points, claimed that Platinum did not give Yakumo's WR iframes >schizo posts gameplay proof that Yakumo's WR has iframesAnyone who calls out /v/ermin for lying is based.
>>748969570I'd rather have someone who obsessively likes a game than hate on one
>>748970305>I spit on the fraud, liar and scammer called Igarashi, he exposed himself and ruined his reputation, all those good 2D Castlevania that were developed under him at Konami, were the result of the Team behind them, not the result of Igarashi.truth nuke btw
>>748969570It's good to get a bump in a NG thread even if it's from a samefagging jeet schizo.>>748967220Learn to manage essence, and how to on-landing UTs. You get more essence if you kill an enemy with fully charged UT. Don't sweat it.
>>748970560He does both
>>748967220Just have fun, only buy 4 if you like the others, it's unlike any of the first 3.
>>748970994>it's unlike any of the first 3.I disagree with this. 3 is pretty different from 1 and 2.
>>748971080And 2 is different from 1 while 4 is different from all 3
>>748969570I respect his commitment
>>748970439All credit goes to Red Ryu Poster for originally making that webm and exposing that lying /v/ermin. I just reposted the webm in the next thread. There is a poojeet shill that is trying to make NG3:RE appear is a hidden gem misunderstood masterpiece and constantly lies about NG4. He might be one of the fanboys of Farnham the CumDrunk. Regardless of his motives, I will be here for many years to expose him and call him out.In honor of Red Ryu Poster and RYU HAYABUSA:SUCH IS THE FRAGILITY OF EVIL.
>>748967220Just spam UTs
>>748971581He would need to learn essence management and on-landing before he can start spamming UTs.
>>748971676If he's playing 1 yeah, 2 he can just spam uts on demand.
>>748967220Most important thing is to have fun. Don't worry about the shit slinging.
>>748967450This. No point asking if you end up getting filtered by first level of sig/black. Also platinum only remembered about ryu 1 month before shipping so he's side tracked.
>>748969570He tells no lie.
>>748971676only for the first half.dabi lvl3 removes all need for essence management cuz even ETs oneshot fiends.
Even vanilla NG3 is more NG than 4, avoid at any cost. 4 ist just a generic P*shit nigger action game commissioned by Tecmo with various NG themes.
>>748972775>Even vanilla NG3 is more NG than 4You're on fucking crack if you believe that, and you never played vanilla NG3. Vanilla NG3 may as well be a fucking Naughty Dog game in comparison to the rest of the franchise.
>>7489727754 must have been made by junior devs or something. Such a retarded game.>>748972989Also this. At least compare 4 to RE, 3 vanilla was a mess
>>748972775>Even vanilla NG3 is more NG than 4, avoid at any cost. 4 ist just a generic P*shit nigger action game commissioned by Tecmo with various NG themes.Oh look, the lying sanjeet is back at it again. This is what happens when you eat cow shit, drink cow urine, worship cows, worship demons and have to shill to earn money.
>>748973173Stop reflecting from the jeet spammer >>748969462
>>748973297>Sto-ACK
>>748967220just bought it.how in the fucking gay nigger shit do you turn off the auto lock-on?you just mash melee and the game plays itself. its like they turned NG into a toddler batman game
>>748972989It depends on one's definition of similarity. From a mechanical perspective 3 still is an evolution on 2 that attempts to solve its issues with the changes it introduces and adding RNG sob. what a weirdass game
>>748973516What issues of 2 was it trying to fix, I can see UT spam getting fixed but what else.
>>748973440are you retarded? every single NG has auto lock on that's what happens when an action game doesn't have traditional dark souls lock on
>>748967220>Started the first game, any tipsFlying Swallow will carry you until you get Izuna Drop and beyond. When you get Izuna Drop abuse until it's etched into you muscle memory for the rest of your life.
>>748973858>every single NG has auto lock on that's what happens when an action game doesn't have traditional dark souls lock onnah this is pure fucking garbage and i'm going to make a video showing how much of a wrong faggot you are
>>748967220whenever you aren't attacking you should be holding onto the block button, either to block or evade, in hectic fights you should get used to only using your evade to move aroundalso the move that jumps off of enemy heads is super underrated, it will interrupt whatever they are doing, you just press jump + light attack at the same time and then jump again
>>748973858sorry for the crude words, but I have just made that video. I even downloaded an input overlay to show ng4.this is just not acceptable, especially for a ninja gaiden game.
>>748975369
>>748969462The Sigma games are fine. Especially for new players.
>>748975369This is the consequence of having bigger stages and a faster game speed, they upped the distance travelled when you attack. I honestly don't understand this complaint because you are literally never going to actually play the game like this staying on ground mashing X, you're just going to hop around throw people do flying swallow all of them having massive succ since the first game because that's how NG is designed
>>748973612I was mainly thinking of the juggle nerfs but I'm pretty sure inconsistent juggle chance on non-bloodied enemies was only added with RE.Still vanilla 3's moveset had already begun addressing the issue of extended strings being outright worthless in 2. Hold Y gives you a safe, invul option to deal with interrupts and enemies aren't the paper thin like in 2 (barring retarded FS) so a simple XXY won't kill shit. Then RE further went in with that with a bunch of changes.
>>748975369Too many people want games to operate like how they play rather than learn how the game is meant to be played.
>>748975838Nice water.
>>748972775>Even vanilla NG3This game was such dogshit it tarnished Team Ninja's reputation forever. People shill 3RE hard but almost all the good parts were ported from 1 and 2 or Sigma.NG3's heritage is just hallway level design, shitty gimmicks and QTEs.
>>748975369And why is this an issue? >especially for a ninja gaiden gameThey all have auto lock-on. Also...>video is the first encounter of the gameWay to be disingenuous. Do you have a MNM clear to back-up the claim that NG4 can be beaten by mashing X?
>>748975369>weakest enemy in the game>first encounter>Anon starts attacking the fucking wall at 0:20>enemies still manage to land some hits and avoid Anon's attacks
>>748975962>The Sigma games are fine.
>>7489672204 is just like 3, but easier. Wait until you've played 3 to decide on that.
>>748969570He's the one spamming these threads every day so he can be a retarded faggot in them. Be sure to always report all of his posts.
>>748976367SAAAR! NG3:RE IS MISUNDERSTOOD MASTERPIECE HIDDEN GEM!SAAAR! PLAY NG3:RE OR I BEAT YOU BLOODY BASTARD BENCHOD!SAAAR! DO NOT REDEEM NG4, IT IS NOT A NG GAME!
>>748976694>4 is just like 3, but easier. Wait until you've played 3 to decide on that.Lying sanjeet poojeet subhuman who hasn't played these games and keeps lying about them. This is what happens when you eat cow shit, drink cow urine, worship demons and have to shill to earn money.
>>748976823>SAAAR! I REPORT YOU! STOP EXPOSING ME FOR BEING THE SUBHUMAN POOJEET THAT I AM!
>>748977083No one asked you to post a selfie, shitskin
>>748977187>SAAAR! YOU ARE THE SHITSKIN!
>>748976825Truly ahead of its time.
>>748975369Cool now try that in the first mission once you get your health bar and can be damaged :)
>everyone replying that video not realizing the entire conversation was about forced lock-on
>>748975838>Uses a move that is literally meant to get you closer to an enemy quickly, even evidenced by the blue trail on Ryu to show how quickly he is moving>wtf, it gets me close to the enemy really quickly this sucks3RE haters only ever expose how terrible they are at the game and nothing more
>>748976825Ninja Gaiden 2 literally has unskippable cutscenes by the way. You can only skip them after already having watched them before. Not that you would know that, since you never played it.
>>748971473Holy based
>>748981159cutscenes are based
>>748981630Not when they are all shit. The only good cutscene in NG2 is when Ryu gets the true dragon sword, and Genshin's death. Everything else is a genuine waste of time that clearly isn't trying to tell any sort of story or have any significance.
>>748981732bad taste, you have.
When are we getting a Ninja Gaiden 2 in DMC5 passthrough mod?
