they removed a few weapons, and they also removed like 70% of enemies from the stages, the original NG2 is an absolute onslaught of overwhelming enemy numbers and if youre not prepared for it you get destroyed, very difficult but very rewarding game, definitely to difficult for the general gamer population
They removed two shurikens that weren't really even that great and added two new weapons. Some trash mobs featuring the same exact enemy copy and pasted were removed. In sigma you actually fight mobs with variety and different enemies placed in them. I consider those changes to be huge improvements tbh.
3's problems are 100% the result of poor game design decisions. RE adds a lot more content but it would not have been good if they did not specifically go back to correct all those poor decisions.
In any case vanilla 3 is irrelevant now, RE is the real third game in the series.
Sadly we never gonna get ninja gaiden again or anything like like it, i played the master collection on pc with kb+m with the help of vjoy and game feels more comfortable with kbm than controller
I recently got into this series. beat black and loved it, im playing II right now but I dont like it as much. the boss fights are pathetic and im not a fan of the locations either, 1 felt like an overall better experience. I also dont like how the combat in 2 is constantly interrupted by the cinematic limb cutting mechanic shit, we already had enough fancy combos, this was completely unnecessary
it works well against every single enemy and every boss, I never felt like I had to switch to something else to adapt to a certain enemy or area, its also a fun weapon and it makes sense for a ninja to use that instead of a giant sword or something else
it's natural for new players to gravitate towards a single weapon since there's so much to learn in the game. Like i said, steak IS delicious, i love the DS in all the games.
guys I dont own an xbox console so my only option is to play sigma 2 ( I could emulate black ) what should I do? I know theres some mod which restores stuff from the original game but is that really stable enough for a full playthrough?
I dont know who that is, but is it not true that sigma 2 is heavily censored? I just need to know if anyone has tried the mod which restores the original enemy placements and stuff
The original enemy placements are trash and vanilla 2 is the easiest game in the series, so much so that it's scraping the border of what can be called Ninja Gaiden.
Paying sigma 2 is still better than not playing ninja gaiden at all, dont listen to internet opinions too much, sigma version or not theyre still all good
Is that Sigma?
You know what? Nevermind. Good on you for having fun.
I remember reading they dumbed down Sigma significantly, is that true?

The only shuriken removed was Windmill. Explosive was simply given to Ayane.
>1 new melee weapon
>1 new (shit) ranged weapon
>3 new chapters
>3 new playable characters
>6 (off the top of my head) new bosses
the rare franchise that almost had no bad entries
Shame that TN shit the bed so hard with 3 that it killed the franchise.
Koei made them ship it unfinished
RE is the best

If you enjoyed that polished turd, then more power to you bro.

if you get pass the yellow room at the beginning, you can beat the rest at that difficulty

luv Itagaki Tomonobu
luv ninja gaiden
luv rachels bitties
hate tecmo
simple as
A toast to anons with good taste.
What's your favorite weapon?
I just use the default sword for everything
Steak is delicious but you need to broaden your palate anon.

second game has the best DS moveset too.
Here's a combo for you to try anon
>unshaved monkey
low test
The lunar staff and the Tonfas are my favs. Honestly doesn't feel like you need anything else.
The second game made a good job of making every weapon powerful. There's no wrong answers.
Been really enjoying BOTA in 2 and S2 lately.
Talons are the most stylish visually but I have a hard time with them in vanilla 2
3 is the best one (don't let anyone tell you otherwise). The gameplay is insanely fast and if you don't keep up you are toast.
It is a shame Team Ninja abandoned this franchise (even if Nioh is better).
I fricking need a new Ninja Gaiden. Where the frick is 4, Tecmo?
NOT SO FAST
they probably made it and "lost the source code" kek
the world would be a better place if all doagays died
based, even though I jerk off to the girls sometimes
All 10 of them? Why?
What would you say was the enemy/boss that gave you the most trouble anon? Also what difficulty did you play on?
and here comes the samegayging
Now try the Black mod

Play Sigma 2 and stop fricking paying attention to Pace/VatBlack person. Unless it's you samegayging again in which case have a nice day.
I dont know who that is, but is it not true that sigma 2 is heavily censored? I just need to know if anyone has tried the mod which restores the original enemy placements and stuff

>muh enemy placements
emulate og 2 on xenia, dumbass
Paying sigma 2 is still better than not playing ninja gaiden at all, dont listen to internet opinions too much, sigma version or not theyre still all good
Too bad you left OP, could have kept your thread from devolving into the garbage it always does when the cancer is online.
>doagay calling anyone else cancer
ironic
I cringe so hard when one of my friend saw me playing this game and said hey that Hayabusa from mobile legends right
