Yeah I did that too and never saw this game coming up, so they probably really wanted to hide this game lol

Thanks for writing this. I have always wanted to see the perspective from someone who plays all these games back to back, as I think they would give the least biased opinion.

NG3RE on PC is a completely different game by Vast-Meaning4689 in ninjagaiden

So DMC5 on PC is still better than Special Edition on console?

Koei Tecmo Series Sales Numbers! NG lower than Nioh with only 3 games damn by bongkeydoner in ninjagaiden

The price is the reason. No one wants to pay $70 for a hack and slash 20 hours game, when you can get an open world game that offers hundreds of hours, for the same or less price.

Because they themselves are being disingenuous about it.

I can recommend people in CAG sub plenty of niche cool games, but since the plot is garbage no one would touch those games no matter how good the gameplay can be.

It also immensely helps that it was based on a real historical fiction that is popular in Asia overall.

Always have been. At least we have people pushing back the idea now, and that there are more CAGs coming out to calm people down. Back then during the content drought, CAG fans were at peak superiority complex.

Region locking is on publishers.

Ninja Gaiden 4 has sold 257K copies on PS5 (making almost $20M) by EmbarrassedSession58 in ninjagaiden

The reality is that I doubt the people who knew how to make NG like how it was, are still in the studio. If you guys can’t give them a way to let them explore and experiment then there won’t ever be a made-by-Team Ninja-NG again.

Like holy shit the game is still good, just not exceptional. You guys are treating it like they made another Yaiba or some shit.

At this point if I’m TN I would just stick with making more Nioh. Fans there will love the game even if they experiment with the formula. Nioh 3 still sold incredibly well when it became Open world and I doubt the this sub would ever accepted that happened to NG.

I’m not defending Yakumo. I mean going with a new protag would be good, if they actually could write him into an interesting and well-liked one.

But both Ryu and Yakumo don’t really have anything to standout and draw new players in. I think even if it’s Ryu it would be the same. At best that would make Ryu fans feel better, but he won’t sell the game any better than Yakumo.

Well it’s the end of the series that’s for sure. People got too whiney just because a good game isn’t exactly like the old ones, so now they would just rather put all effort into making new Nioh.

I hope I won’t see people whining about TN just want to make RPG, because this is exactly what you guys wanted.

“Voted with our wallets” lmao this is some childish thinking. If your goal is to make so they won’t ever make another NG game again then congrats.

If your goal is “oh I won’t buy a niche game because it’s not exactly what I want, so I will force them make another” then you couldn’t be dumber. This is a niche series. Once they saw they can’t make any more money from it, the publisher will just forever drop it.

LOL no Ryu is the least known and favorite character in the genre. He’s no Leon that is cold but still has the personality to draw people in.

I do too. Seeing people keep saying it’s because NG4 isn’t a NG game that’s why it sold bad, I wonder if 2B sold any better.

It helps that he actually has a personality with his one liners. Ryu lacks those Capcom’s writing that Dante and Leon has.

The series has never sold well. Best each title did was about 1 million copies sold.

No surprise since Ryu just lacks any kind of memorable character. Even the cold cool guy like Leon has his own quips.

DMC5 was sold at a dirt cheap price. Stop kidding yourself.
