BottledBodhisvata posted:So this reboot was not actually successful? I didn't know quite how well it sold, but I guess this answers that. It was the worst selling DMC game. Capcom adjusted their projected sales from 4mil to 2mil to 1.5m to 1.15m DMC 4 sold 2.9mil across the 360 and ps3. S-Alpha posted:Didn't they straight-up say that, because of the hilarious failure that was DmC, that "the console market is dead now", and that's why they're focusing on mobile games for the foreseeable future, or some nonsense like that? And I'm sure they believe it too. Just like how the DmC story was deep and complex. Almost Shakespearian.

BottledBodhisvata posted:That's too bad. I'd liked to see some of the concepts in the gameplay expanded, but perhaps it's for the best. Devil May Cry is probably best buried. Capcom's got new IPs like Dragon's Dogma to...well actually I didn't much like Dragon's Dogma. As long as their new IP is a good brawler. There needs more good brawlers in video games and less DmCs and Dante's Infernos. What I'm saying is that you are wrong and bring on DMC5 while we push DmC into the deep pit we dug for DMC2.

Sex_Ferguson posted:There's nothing really wrong with the game overall. The big change was that you couldn't die, but the game doesn't really focus on the danger of death more so as you have to start your platforming over if you mess up. The last SoT game was actually a movie cash in more than anything else. If you can call what PoP 08 had as platforming. I guess it was about as involved as Assassin's Creed platforming.

edit: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ fffffffAurain posted:I don't think PoP 08 did well enough or enough things differently to AC as a franchise to justify its future existence in a world where Ubisoft are going to focus primarily on Assassin's Creed and likely Watch_Dogs sequels. Well to be fair, Megaman games have kinda sold poorly. Not Capcom poorly, but actually poorly. Its like F Zero, Star Fox and Metroid in that regard. Vocal fans, but not enough sales.

Pesky Splinter posted:There's that Castlevania: Lord of Shadows 2 (made by MercurySteam, produced by Konami) coming out soon, there's Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z (Temco) A.K.A "How can we make the trailer remind people of DmC?", Suda-51 had the lacklustre Killer is Dead. That's only off the top of my head, mind. Slightly interested in Yaibi, but I don't have high hopes. Definitely waiting for player reviews before deciding on that one.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Give Kamiya and Itsuno a couple more decades and they might even be able to match Ninja Gaiden Black! Give Team Ninja a couple more decades and they may be able to get their camera up to Mario 64 levels!  Sex_Ferguson posted:They've making Beat 'Em Up games too and while Madworld's gameplay is not great it's still very charming and I loving loved Anarchy Reigns. Like it's the perfect kind of multiplayer beat 'em up action game that just entrenches its fights in utter chaos with fun characters and has Death Ball which I played for loving ever, it is a crime that game did not get more of a fanbase. It's a crime that the worldwide and Japanese releases were seperated by 6 months because that killed the online mp. Well, that and being really niche too.

Hahaha Kamiya you loving own.

Pesky Splinter posted:They dropped their sales figure expectations three times - they were expecting this to earn mega-bucks. Yea their starting estimate was 4mil, then dropped to 2mil, 1.5m and finally settled on 1.15m.

Hel posted:Makes sense, might still be fun if I can get them for cheap. The first two are the best, right? Black > Sigma 1 >= Sigma 2. Do not play 3. Even with the fixed version of 3, it is still a bad bad game. But yea like the other posters mentioned, NG aren't really for stylish combos. They are more about learning how to abuse invuln frames because the enemies come at you hard (and sometimes cheap). Also the camera sucks

ImpAtom posted:Ninja Gaiden 2 is a harder question to answer. The original version of the game was rushed out and it is incredibly janky in places. The higher difficulty levels are also incredibly poorly tuned and a lot of people don't like them because of that. Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 fixes some of the problems and has new enemies/bosses and some new weapons but it also removes some content (certain weapons, puzzles and missions) and censors the game. (Blue smoke instead of blood.) It's worth playing if you like the first one but has a lot problems which can sour the experience for you regardless of which version you play. Sigma 2 is better than vanilla 2. They retuned a lot of the bullshit encounters, though there are still some, and everything else they removed added nothing to the game(like stupid puzzles). Yea there are less enemies in some encounters, but the framerate doesn't dip into single digits either. Blood vs blue mist never bothered me. They also added some sort chapters where you play as another char + some co-op online stuff. ImpAtom posted:several ranged weapons removed But they also made ranged weapons better by letting them autotarget stuff without forcing you to go into first person and manually aim them. That alone is worth every change. edit: vvv or another example: those rocket launcher assholes that spam their homing rockets at you from offscreen and way at the end of the tunnel. gently caress those levels so hard CAPTAIN CAPSLOCK fucked around with this message at 23:32 on Jul 20, 2014 |

Sir Ilpalazzo posted:I dunno, I can't see Sigma 2 being an improvement on the original version, or even a sidestep. It seems like a pretty putrid game; basically like NG2 spliced with some of the terrible poo poo that later got worked into NG3 (like turning enemies into damage sponges with amazingly powerful grabs). Rewatching that does remind me how completely dogshit the camera is. Also its funny how neither Itagaki or team ninja have made a good game since they split.

Sir Ilpalazzo posted:I think you're thinking of super / hyper armor, and it's not really unfair at all; it's an element of the game that the bosses are built around. I would agree if bosses didn't always leave themselves open long enough for you to get good damage in, but that's not the case. No he means invuln frames. A lot of the time you just couldn't hurt them. Best example of this was the blood lady boss in NG2. Of course they also had super/hyper armor.

Butt Ghost posted:This thread has taught me that Ninja Gaiden Black is the only (arguably) good Ninja Gaiden. I only have the vanilla one, and I could never get past that dinosaur thing, like, three levels in. How the gently caress do you play these games? Jump around dodging attacks and blocking while waiting for an opening. Use a short combo and repeat. Maybe use your UT if you are feeling ballsy. Basically play real defensively.
