The Nagoriyuki extreme boss fight killed the game for me

[Gamma Ray]

I spent a couple hours trying to beat Nagoriyuki, and I finally did it. I played the game one more time after that. I really have no desire to go through that again when my reward for being good at the game is to get wrecked repeatedly by Nagoriyuki and spend two hours getting mad at the game. It's been weeks since I played the game, and I was so excited for it. I even played it online for a while and did well. The arcade mode killed my enthusiasm for the game, though. It was one excruciating task that I never want to experience again.

Survival mode sucks, too. Revelator's MOM mode really spoiled us. That mode was fantastic.

have you tried playing other players? That's usually where the longevity of a fighting game comes from.

Yes. I said I played online. Playing online is fine, but I like running through the arcade mode in fighting games a lot. This game with its sliding scale of difficulty just makes me think about profound frustration and makes me not want to play it.

It's not as extreme as you think. I just throw out moves with whoever I'm using and it works.

Can be done with any character as long as they have double jumps

yeah the end of arcade mode is kinda of a let down, not challenging in the right way. just have to find an exploit in ai since it feels like a poorly designed version of nago. MOM in xrd was far more fun.

buying a new fighting game at launch for single player lmao

Played Ky for the 2nd time ever today. Beat Nagori boss from the first try on Maniac. WAIDW?

Honestly, buying this game at launch at full price for single player content is a huge waste of money. Though I guess if you got the money to spare then whatever.

Fighting games are about the fighting vs others, not so much the single player mode.

It really depends on the game, some have large and beloved single player modes.

It doesn't make sense how he starts off in blood mode in your round three, no matter what i do he charges headfirst at the start of the round too. The boss is BS

Why nagoryuki is different of Slayer?

[Vault Traveler]

Its the usuall npc fighting game final boss shenanigan.

I remember fighting seth in SF4 was a pain in the ass aswell.

In alot of ways it makes him easier as it gives an opening at round start and hes stuns (with most characters being able to do 150-300 ish corner combos or dusts to his hugh hp).

What really makes the fight unfair is he can spam his dp, cancel it on block, and I believe its throw invincible as well. Thats what really makes the fight hard. You are pretty much at the mercy of how much and how cheesy he wants to be with it.
