I think this is the best melee combat game I've ever played next to Jedi Knight Outcast/Academy. If there's anything else like this please let me know because I love this kind of shit.

Nope sorry OP this is the only third person 3D action game in existence.

The closest you'll get is DMC and that's not close. Still you should play at least DMC3 and Godhand.

I’d add dmc4 SE to those two. Then there’s Nioh which feels similar but is a different beast. If you want fun action with a similar but easy mode/watered down feeling there’s Bayonetta, MGR and the new Nier games. I agree that the closest you’ll ever get to it besides NG2 is dmc3.

I was keeping it /vr/, but sure, bayonetta is alright and so is MGR. I personally like NG2 more than the first one, it might not be as well designed, but everything happens at a thousand miles per second and the gore and dismemberment make for good game feel for my brain

2 still has pretty great design but is lacking compared to black. Honestly I really only play 2 these days. Since it came out I’ve replayed NGB only once while I play 2 annually. Too bad the master collection is just Sigma. I never got around to playing Sigma 1 so maybe I’ll try it out for the added weapons or whatever.

Wow, so well designed. I sure love games where my character feels like he's walking through lead paint and enemies I can't see throw explosives at me off camera.

ng2
its only because the dev made fighting games, so the player and every enemy has fighting game options

The birds are all timing. Let them pass so they don't hit you over the pits.

>> No.8130394

>>8130386
but if I do that then I get hit by a leopard from behind
and if I jump down and hit the bird I get fucked by the dude

>> No.8130409

>>8130394
If that's the bird at the very end of the level I think you can jump right into him and either slash him in the air or avoid him entirely. Just need to make sure the guy on the ledge is pacing away from you.

>> No.8130480

>>8130409
yeah, i got it. the timing for killing the leopard without an item is just really tough.

>> No.8130860

>>8129463
it's one of a kind
ng2 goes full anime bullshit with 5 billion enemies onscreen hopping around nuking the whole level, and ng3re goes further in that direction
sigma 2 hits somewhere in-between 1 and 2 so you might like it. the difficulty balance is shit, either you're drowning in potions or you get instant killed from off-screen
you might like metal gear rising? that's probably the closest you can get to NGB.

MGR is all about the parry mechanic, I didn't really feel like I was playing Ninja Gaiden. Too many QTEs and the game is too easy.

>> No.8131143

Otogi and Otogi 2 had solid combat and destructible environments too. It kills me they didn't sell well and people don't know they exist, they're such cool games.
