Poll: How frustrated have you been at Ninja Gaiden 2?

[danneloid]

I have compleated this game on "Acolyte" (easyest mode) and i thought back at all the rage moments i had, and i wondered am i to agressive? So i made this poll to see

 

[ikyda1]

was acolyte easy mode? i thought ninja gaiden 2 didn't have a easy mode coz acolyte was pretty difficult to play

 

[NotAPie]

I never raged throughout this game.
Except when it froze in the middle of a boss fight,
But other then that I was completely calm.

 

[Aleate]

I gave up when i fought the second boss on hard mode. Imagine having 5 of the final bosses jumping on you and spamming unblockable, undodgeable attacks. That was the SECOND BOSS!!! So... i just kinda quit after that

I just played it then, starting from where I left off months ago and I had to fight Volf with 1/3 of my full health, I only beat him once then got killed by those pricks who jump into the arena, I gave up so I restarted it. Zedonius was a colossal pain in the arse, I had to get my brother to kill him for me after I died 100 times. I rage at the bosses but not at the normal levels, I love those. My favourite level is the Deadalus airship, fun fun fun.

 

[Abedeus]

I did rage few times, but it was more of a "God damn, that boss has killed me 20 times... oh, hey, I got an achievement for 100 deaths...", rather than "AARGHH!!! *BITES A BAT'S HEAD OFF*" kind of rage.

Eh, just the usual "MOTHER FUCKER!!!" that explodes from my mouth when I die in these types of games.

Especially during boss battles.

Those 2 fire bosses you have to fight, that walk slowly then curl up in a ball and then roll at you at 1000mph and then explode at the end taking 90% of your health... That annoyed me to hell. But only to the point where I would go and take a 30minute break because if I knew I kept playing, I would have a controller shaped smash in my bedroom window

 

[Kastil]

I started this game in Warrior mode. I haven't completed it yet but it's more because I had to take a break from it. It didn't frustrate me as much as I needed a break. TH\he one boss was was constantly kicking my ass and I learned from the last Ninja Gaiden that it's better to set the game aside and play something else.

The game is too pretty and too challenging to get pissy on it. My only regret was skipping one of the Valor challenges. I had figured out a system to defeat all the ones before this but then my impatience won over and I skipped it. My achievement whore side wept.

I prefer games to be a challenge honestly.

Haven't played it, but I am considering getting it. People do seem to love it...

The game is a blast when you're running around, slicing guys up, going up walls, etc etc.. It's when you get to those super-cheap boss fights and situations where the camera is your enemy and you can't see those assholes throwing exploding shurikens from off-screen that you start contemplating how structurally sound your controller is..

Exploding shurikens?


[HEADING=3]Awesome.[/HEADING]

 

[ginty2]

i played the game on warrior mode and i loved slicing through all the regular dudes. i did have a FUCK YOU, game moment when i got to the second to last boss. the ************ with his hovering movement and those cheap ass attacks caused my first controller throwing moment.

my favorite stage was venice, those wolfmen and robots were most satisfying to kill.

 

[Captinchunk]

I had moments in this game where i actually wished i never existed!
After playing my controller has some pretty impresive bite marks...
I did like the challege though

 

[Iron Mal]

This is one of the few cases where I will admit that games might possibly cause anger and aggression in people, Ninja Gaiden was a tad too relentless on the difficulty for my liking (I do like a challange but I also think it should be reasonable).

 

[Conqueror Kenny]

I ran through it on Acolyte rage free just to unlock the harder modes and got stuck on the level with the river of blood close to the end

Spoiler

The one where you finally kill that other ninja dude and steal his lightning sword

I just gave up after I couldn't beat the two bosses in a row.

Exploding shurikens?


[HEADING=3]Awesome.[/HEADING]

At first it is. After fighting those cheep ass dogs that throw them at your for the 50[sup]th[/sup] time in a level it's slightly less awesome.

 

[egwidalin]

i never really got angry at that game, simply because i played lots of ninja gaiden black before this even came out. i knew exactly what to expect, and was good at the game. flew right through warrior difficulty.

 

[Flour]

Started on warrior mode. I knew it was going to kick my ass and laugh while I slowly tried to crawl to a corner to cry, and that's exactly what I love about it.

I refuse to stop playing without finishing a boss fight, and the only time I did was on Zedonius. He and his minions kicked my ass until I found his weakness.

well nija gaiden 2 was amzingly hard and fun to a point and that point was where i had full health on like the 4th level and the boss kllled me in one hit after that i said fuck it and i havent played it since
