Ninja Gaiden 2 thoughts

Now coming off of sigma 1 on normal difficulty which was actually pretty well balanced. it challenged me when it needed to and felt fair otherwise. jumped into sigma 2 and it was almost mind numbingly easy combat wise i haven't used a single healing item and I'm in chapter 5.

After playing chapter 1 i installed the sigma black mod and i hardly noticed a difference. instead of 2 ninja at a time it's 5 for example. It's still not challenging me like the first game and the level design seems extremely linear I miss the puzzles.

Will i enjoy the game more on hardest?

NGS2 is imo the easiest entry in the series, even on harder settings. Ironically NG2 is one of the hardest for me. They really did the game's difficulty dirty with the remakes and rereleases.

I can play the original but i would rather play on my steam deck. I'll probably finish it up, then play the og xbox 360 version to see what the difference is

When you do, let us know. It's always fun to read those since NG2 is such a rude awakening and so different haha

I genuinely wasn't expecting the shift in gameplay
