While the demo is the mostly what was shown at Tokyo Game Show it is more polished. One notable change is if you miss a quick time event Ninja Blade just doesn't pop up with a black screen that says miss. Now the game fades to gray then says miss and time automatically rewinds before the quick time event happens. Little changes like this make Ninja Blade gel better, but it doesn't seem like you're penalized at for missing most of the QTEs. Since this is a demo this could be just a demo thing or it could be a final game thing. Not sure, but Ninja Blade would have been a better experience if From Software had alternate fates for Ken if you missed a QTE similar to Dragon's Lair.
Ninja Blade is From Software’s best ninja game of all time, including Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice. At least it’s the best version of a specific type of ninja game.
Well aren't you cool? Taking a game that was pretty much universally acclaimed and then saying that one that received mediocre to bad reviews across the board is better... There's always one "hipster" out there with a contrarian opinion.
I don’t remember much of it but wasn’t it a QTE heavy game like Asura’s Wrath and GOW3?
FromSoftware is a game developer that has found popularity in the gaming industry thanks to their widely popular and best-selling series, Dark Souls. They may have gained notoriety from this series, but they have been around since 1986 with their first video game published in 1994 and have produced many popular games. Here are 5 games they have made that are not Dark Souls.
The Adventures of Cookie and Cream (Or Kuri Kuri Mix as is known in PAL territories) is actually a pretty good game, and gets damn hard in the latter stages.
I'd love to see FromSoft make King's Field 5, or maybe another Armoured Core. I love the Souls games, but I don't want to see it milked for all its worth.
Didn't they also make the 3D Dot Game Heroes (or something like that).
I actually enjoyed that a lot on PS3
Armored Core series producer left From Software.
My guess is the company shifted all focus to Souls series... :(
RIP Armored Core....
"In Mortal Kombat X, Most of the cut scene fights are just there for you to watch, then every once in a while unannounced, the game goes to a quick time event." -Play Legit
Play Heavy Rain and the walking dead series then see if that question is even worth asking.
Yes, yes they should. They've always been an excuse to escalate drama through lazy button prompts than any game design.
Im happy they are forgiving, I remember how in heavenly sword when you missed a qte you had to fight the boss for an additional round to even get a chance to attempt the boss finishing qte again. Ninja blades solution is better since its only for cutscenes and does not interrupt the gameplay.
It can't be any more forgiving then the Prince Of Persia... You can't even die ..
lol this game gonna be good only people hating on the qte are sony f@ns and all their favorite games have them god of war, hevenly sword lol
