it's the arguments falling over to "this game good cuz this a challenging game exists between dumb pause heal save load game" Dark souls moveset and keyframes today is shit, but it was a thing you only saw on fighting games or 5 frame beat em up attack, Dark Souls visuals and keyframes combat was the shit in that time.

That was a Jab-1 to Command grab Okezemi. being downed against the wall is untechable, that jab was timed to my get up animation first frame. Ninja Gaiden is a 3d Fighting Game, not an action game.

I agree wholeheartedly. I was just a kid at that time and remembered how awesome the gaming experience was for the game. I did not play any of the sequels and wish they would continue this series now. This was the first game that I truly consider to be hard but fun and entertaining. Souls like games are just too punishing.
