Beat'em up elements?

While I can understand as it's from the people behind Streets of Rage 4 I kinda wish it was more of a "one hit one kill" kind of game as ninjas are supposed to only strike once to vanquish their foes.

1. Not the same franchise. I don't play Shinobi to have the same experience as Ninja Gaiden nor Strider.
   
2. One is in 2D the other 3D so this explains the gameplay change and I don't expect a side scroller to play the same as a 3D beat'em up.
   
3. What if I prefer one over the other? I can express my opinion on the subject without having another series as a counterargument?

100% agree, Shinobi was always one hit, except bosses and some elite units.. this and collecting hp every time you kill someone are the things I dislike about the game.
