Ninja Gaiden II Question: Acolyte Diffic ...

I was interested in getting Ninja Gaiden II on the bargain bin but was worried that the easier difficulty setting of Acolyte would not be enough. Does it at least make the game non-masochistic? Is the game manageable throughout on Acolyte or is it still bone-crushingly difficult?Ninja Gaiden II Question: Acolyte Diffic ...
If you're worried about not being able to beat Ninja Gaiden 2 on the lowest difficulty setting then I'd suggest getting some experience with other action games behind your belt before tackling Ninja Gaiden 2, because it's a very frustrating game. It requires fast reflexes, good timing, and ALOT of patience.Ninja Gaiden II Question: Acolyte Diffic ...
I had some troubles playing the game on Acolyte especially around chapter 8 and 9. You need to learn to read your opponents moves and patterns of attack unless you want them to wipe the floor with you. You can't just run in and button mash. I would't say it is really difficult though. I got half way through warrior without a problem.I recommend the game. :)
Well it depends on your skills.. I've played Path of the Warrior first then Acolyte was just really easy.. But my first play thru on Warrior is hard..
Yeah I've played and beaten the first game so I know the usual difficulty in the Ninja Gaiden franchise. Just worried considering Ninja Gaiden II was considered even to be more difficult. Is Acolyte similar to regular difficulty level in the first game or is it a little easier? I like a challenge but just not feeling too masochistic lately. I still flinch thinking about the ghost pirahnnas, oh the ghost pirahnnas.
Its not so bad, I had never played the first Ninja Gaiden and I managed Warrior difficulty without any real problems.The higher difficultieson the other hand are INSANEI would really recommend this game. Its fun and its probably dirt cheap now. Try the demo on the market place first if your worried.Good Luck!
I played through on Warrior. Didn't really have any problems.



Great game BTW. Get it if you can.
Yeah it was an excellent game, but its not a button masher like many of the other games of that genre can turn into. just play through it, but try and focus on learning what you are doing and watch you enemies close and you will be just fine. the harder difficulties, on the other hand, well, masochistic may not go far enough to describe it. they are doable, but really frusterating.
