To be honest I am not too familiar with the Guild Wars games, just saw the character & thought "Avatar material!" Love the Grecian hair-do & Roman-esque vibes.
Sadly, GW1 probably won't last much longer now that everyone is on GW2 (which honestly is not that good, imo).
But in it's hayday: best game ever. Followed closely by Mass Effect 2 and Ninja Gaiden: Black.
Always the way isn't it, people go for the new over the usually old & better. Oh man i remember playing Ninja Gaiden Black for the first time. I used to be Devil May Cry 1 biased then NG Black came around i was like "whoa, wtf did i just play" It was so damn epic.
Haha, yeah. My first NG was acutally NG2 on 360. I thought "Wow... this is so freaking amazing. I have to play 1!" Then I did I was was like: "Holy smokes this is even better!"
Black. Pure epic.
Good times man. I can remember getting a splitting headache from fighting Alma. I gave it a weeks break, decided to play it again one afternoon & then somehow i beat her using the Vigoorian Flail. I victory-cried that hard & loud i nearly lost my voice.
lol! Alma actually wasn't as bad for me as she was for a lot of people. I think it helped coming into the game with all that NG2 experience saved up. My early NG rages were the result of Incendiary shurikens. So many shurikens...
Haha!! Nice!. Yeah i can fondly remember those incendiary shurikens being a strong burden for anger on me too. After beating Alma i was thinking i was home & hosed then towards the end they throw 4 or 5 bosses in succession at you. I was like no, not again hah!
Haha, yeah. The first time I played Very Hard mode and found that the Hydracubus & Yotunfrau were replaced with Niccae and Ishtaros during Marbus' gauntlet I was shitting bricks. Ishtaros is still the hardest NG:B boss, imo.
Lol!! Those are the two dominatrix type Alma-alike fiends yeah? Can you actually beat them? I couldn't beat those underworld mistresses nor could i beat Doku at the flaming village . Is it possible at all? One Alma was bad enough then they toss 2 at you. Stuff that!
Well, I dunno about in Sigma. That doku fight is not there in NG:B, and obviously any Rachel fights are not present either. I didn't beat them with Rachel because I was never looking to prolong my Rachel playtime, so I lost and was like "Cool. I'm done with you anyway." Doku I haven't beat either. I haven't played Sigma much simply becuase every time I do, I'm reminded how much better Black is.
Props man, that would take skill & patience. Patience i have, skill i do not. I'd turn into this juddering, fidgety, shuddery nervous wreck when i'd get even half their life bars down before getting owned by my own nerves & the Almas relentless attacking.
Lol you never know, I'd have to really psyche myself up for it though. Rachel as you said is an absolute dinosaur to move. Very heavy & clunky character, so that might put me off ever attempting it again.
Lmao, well said. I reckon part of the reason are those chest weights that TN have applied that would make anyone lean forward. Trimmer down on those & our leather-loving amazon might pick up the pace a little.
Brute, sure is mate :)
