NG2 vs. NG3RE

this applied to every optional character in that game. Ayane had me struggling to finish off the most basic of enemies because her weapons REFUSED to cut, Momiji was better but still not as good as Ryu, Rachel was slower but with the number of enemies she was fighting it wasnt really a problem she had the power to take them down quickly which is what mattered and like i said before Marbus is a little bitch i cant believe you had trouble with that level. to call Rachel out on that while leaving the others alone is rather ridiculous.
I agree that all of those chapters can be distracting, and imo they should have been added as option mission mode-type things. But, they have varying degrees of annoyance.
My analysis of the chick levels in NGS2 (Master Ninja difficulty):
Momiji: Her chapter is fine except that going through a lot of the same areas as Ryu is a bit dull. There's also a glitch where you can get stuck and that sucks. But, it's easy for the most part, so you can whistle through it. The one challenge is the Tengus and their insta-kill, lightning-fast Izuna spams. And that is some serious bullshit.
Ayane: Ayane's level is actually fairly easy. The IS ninja fight (you know which one) is the most difficult part for sure if you're going sans items (or saving them for the boss), but once you learn the de-limb trick with her things get easier.
Rachel: Pain. Ungodly Pain. Every fight is needlessly difficult, but none so much as the butt-fucking elevator. Second-hardest segment in the game. Hopefully, you're good at UT spams and fighting your enemies while the camera looks at a random dustbin. Afterwords, you're rewarded with a fight against the revamped Mundus and his fiends, who are too fast for clumsy Rachel. Mundus is also meant to be attacked with top damage at every landing, but that's risky when you're slow and get buffer-trapped. Infinite pain.
i think you just dont know how to use Rachel
Skip to 1:46 for Rachel
She is an amazing character in NGS2 and just because you don't know how to use a character doesn't mean they are crap

I feel that my opinion is biased because I automatically love NG3RE because it has Kasumi playable. Yes I said it and I regret nothing.
But gameplay wise, I think NGRE is a bit easier compared to NG2. RE's steel on bone mechanic makes bringing down some of the tougher enemies a lot easier not mention the change to how ninpo works. I remember it always sucked to run out of ki in NG2 because you had limited uses of it. In RE it just recharges so yeah. Story wise...I like it. I mean I was never expecting a great narrative since the games are primarily about the action but for what it is I think it does fine. I love both games. NG is my favorite action game series and like I said, I have to say that overall I like RE a little more.
And I don't get the Rachel hate. I personally think Rachel is pretty cool. I have not had the opportunity to play as her in NG but I like her style in DOA plus she's hot as f***. But haters gonna hate I guess.

Odd. I rarely ever used ninpo in NG2. Since it refreshed each level, I almost always had full (as well as full Devil Mushrooms), and would sometimes just spam them on bosses if I felt lazy (knowing they would refresh after the fight). In RE, it feels like the system was built around the idea that you should be regularly using your ninpo or healing and whatnot. I don't really like using ninpo, so I definitely preferred the NG2 system.
I went back to NG3 an oh man the first fight is like 15min long on ultimate ninja, was so boring lol ^.^
never go back to NG3 i know theres this little voice inside your head that says "maybe it wasnt that bad i should give it anouther shot" ignore it
Im not gonna lie guys, I have a confession
I love the NG3 flying swallow D:
I love the NG3 flying swallow D:
not sure why that thing wouldnt let you get more than one kill. one of the most satisfying things in NG for me was to weaken the enemies, back off, then FS like 4-5 heads off at once
Last time I remember, if you homing jump or stun an enemy with a shuriken its guaranteed flying swallow kill
I know for claws you can never miss the flying swallow for sure
all i remember is them stumbling around like idiots beginning not to die after i did that. they couldn't fight worth shit but they still wasted your time cause they could take hits
