Interpreting violent aesthetics with simplicity – Ninja Dragon Sword Legend 2

If you were to choose an action game to play all the time, what game would you choose? The first thing that you need to do is to get the best out of the game. Or the handsome and cool “Ghostbusters 5”? For me, it can only be “Ninja Dragon Sword 2”. It’s the best action game ever in my mind, bar none.

Compared to other similar games, the Shinobi Dragon series naturally has its own strengths and weaknesses, but in terms of overall quality, there is no doubt that Shinobi Dragon is definitely the phenom and king of action games. It is more enjoyable than the Wushuang series, and the sense of speed, the sense of combat, and the frequency of action of “Shinobi Dragon” are far better than Wushuang, and the design and judgment of the moves are stricter than Wushuang, and the thrill of killing the enemy is far better than Wushuang as long as the operation is mastered skillfully.

Since we have to compare with the Muyo series, we have to talk about the number of people on the same screen. In the previous works of the series of Shinobu Dragons, the number of enemies appearing in each batch was far less than in this work. This time, the combat surface has been increased, and still maintains the series’ usual extremely high AI design, allowing players to fight several super Shinobi at once, which is very exciting. If you are not careful, you will be killed instantly, and the tension and pressure during the game is unmatched by the Mukozuna series. The game is more tense and stressful than the grass-cutting of Mukozuna, or Shinobi Dragon is more sensational.

Now “Ninja Dragon Swordsman 2” officially joined the Xbox One X backward compatibility, while supporting X1X screen enhancement, 4k resolution and 60 fps stable screen, so now play also does not feel outdated. I went through “Ghostbusters 5” again some time ago, so that the comparison between the two is more intuitive, and I can only say this: when I played “Shinobi Dragon 2” these days, I never want to touch “Ghostbusters 5” again. In the so-called official comparison of the same difficulty premise, playing Dragon Warrior is far more sour than playing Ghostbusters.

From an aesthetic point of view, Ghostbusters is a fashion trend chasing cool, which is easy to see from the older and more testy Dante in Ghostbusters 5, while Shinobi Dragon is very hardcore with violence to reflect the aesthetics of fighting. Since it is a fighting action game, there is bound to be blood and violence. Shinobi Dragon is not as flashy as Ghostbusters, but it has the true essence of simplicity. Fight as the wind rolls in the clouds, fighting as the waves lapping the shore, practical and performance, and not bothered to simply use some fancy moves to attract players. The fine tradition of the series: dashing, agile, cold, this, is “Shinobi Dragon”.

The new weapons are full of personality, while the old weapons are also glowing. Hard-shelled raptor claw is undoubtedly one of the most colorful weapons in this work, this seemingly less lethal weapons in the game performance is exceptionally fierce. The direction of the front + Y continuous attack, the killing power of the heavy boss is unexpectedly high, almost can be said to reach the point of instant kill. The lock scythe is a weapon suitable for oversized range, especially when attacked by numerous stragglers, such as in the hole in the ground in the sixth and ninth levels, and to clear the water on the surface of the water spiked dragon. However, the hard straight time of heavy and stored attacks is very long and requires an amount of advance preparation. Yan Long – felling tiger is one of the strongest weapons in this work, whether to clear the miscellaneous soldiers or fight the boss have a very high damage output, the speed of the broken limbs is significantly faster than other weapons, with the finishing touch is perfect. To the last level for the Dragon Sword – Evil God sword after, is a leap, but unfortunately too late to get, can only be used to abuse the final boss with, unless the game again in the same difficulty.

When players get to the Shinobi difficulty, it can be said that it is very difficult.

In this case, many conventional moves can not be made, or have to rely on “grinding” and “dodge” to slowly advance. The dark moon scythe is the highest output weapon in this work, and the dance is also tiger, not a little dragging feeling. Many of the moves can be easily killed instantly on the soldiers, is completely the evolution of the weapon war hammer in the previous work, take it to cut the final demon god is the best choice. Double locking sickle is a complete replacement for the nunchaku in the previous work, nunchaku directly in this work was deleted, double locking sickle moves to the discerning eye to know that the nunchaku, still so dazzling spirit escape.

The game in the design of each weapon are different considerations, some are focused on the destructive force of the weapon, some are focused on the speed of the weapon, there are weapons to make the continuous technique looks more elegant, but no matter from which angle to analyze, all the weapons in this work have their own unique charm.

The background of the story of this work can be said to be very similar to the FC version of the first generation of Shinobi Dragon, the same are centered around the resurrection of the evil god to start, but also the fight for the evil statue. Hayabusa’s father Joe also appeared again, this time he did not die, but the role is too small, basically belong to the passerby level, do not mention it, is completely used to link the plot. Once is to block the phantom heart, once is to let Ayane the Dragon’s Bi to Hayabusa Dragon, without any character portrayal and description of events, looking forward to using his players absolutely disappointed. The first generation of the evil demon emperor and the four demon gods also made an appearance, they are still the original culprit of evil. It can be said that the next generation of graphics will be that old plot in the evolution of the few links to change, anyway, are also some irrelevant details, in short, the ending or Hayabusa Dragon again sealed the evil demon god. Is the “Ninja Dragon Sword Legend” the entire destruction of the reconstruction, the “Ninja Dragon Sword Legend 2” the concept and elements needed to pull out, the once classic works recombined into a new game, and XBOX on the works, the fighting part still inherited a generation of violent style, the aesthetics of violence and game entertainment perfectly together.

If you have not yet experienced the charm of the Shinobi Dragon series, then I highly recommend you go and play Ninja Dragon Sword Art 2 for yourself, a pinnacle of action gaming that spans the ages – and a pinnacle that has yet to be surpassed.
