Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Black (mod) - Ultimate Ninja - Chapter Challenge 14 (No death, No saves)

- Just one practice run from the excellent ngs2 Black mod by Fiend Busa, which you can find in his channel: / channel
The mod improves Sigma 2 in every single way, adding back guaranteed delimbs, adding old moves from Sigma 1, increasing AI numbers and aggression (to the point of insanity in the new difficulty mode added, Ultimate Ninja) and basically making the experience as close to the original ng2 as it's possible with what Sigma 2 allows (there's still a handful of bosses that are complete trash, Hayashi's stench isn't that easy to wipe away from this mess).
The goal for this practice run was doing the whole chapter without dying or using save statues (dying is cringe), and killing everyone without skipping a single fight (which is quite annoying because there are some encounters where it's easy to despawn enemies by accident).
The difficulty added by the mod is truly insane (seriously, to the point ng2 is easy in comparison, the changes to AI behaviour are just plain brutal, and fun), and this chapter in particular is the hardest, fighting 5 Rasetsu at the same time is quite the experience, and the last gauntlet is by far the most unpleasant in the whole game.
The start of the chapter isn't that bad, the dogs are a bother when fighting ninjas, since they tend to flood the area where Ryu is standing, pushing out both the player and the ninjas due to collision issues, making any attempt to fight normally futile (and they just love to bite when you are doing whatever string).
The second encounter is pretty unfun if fought up front. Doable, but just relies on UT chaining and Izuna drop/GT spam, so I ran like a bitch back to the door (and proceeded to spam UTs, izunas and guillotine throws, but hey, at least the walls allow for some interesting play).
The encounter after requires waiting for all the ninjas to spawn at the stairs before moving, otherwise they'll despawn, ruining the whole point of doing all fights. I screwed up my movement and was unable to get on the stairs safely thanks to the most nonsensical invisible wall ever placed, not even mad at this point (and I sincerely appreciate the varied map geometry otherwise).
The tengu fight is nothing special, they are not that bad of an enemy, despite being exclusive to sigma 2 (not even Hayashi can find it in himself to make every element of this game terrible), but the whole fight is kinda trash thanks to camera issues fighting the mob (which wouldn't be a problem in the original ng2 because the camera actually works correctly) RT switches the camera focus between the two tengu, so there's that at least.
The rasetsu fight, the least said the better, I just abused the absurdly broken Y forward Y of the Lunar.
The following fights are unremarkable (except me screwing up so badly I even had to use 2 herbs). The archers in the forest are really easy to avoid if you do flying swallow just at the edge of the line where they spawn, but I screwed up and got nailed. The encounter with archers and IS fiend ninjas was so trash I just ninpoed out of it, same with the fight with archers and mages at Murai's place.
The gauntlet at the end is pretty hilarious, where the mod trolls you personally and disables the ability to use ninpo (silly animation included). Gotta be honest though, I would have ninpoed the hell out of that garbage fight, at least that forced me to fight like a man... and just spam UTs till everyone dies, not that much different I guess.
I didn't want to izuna Genshin at the end, always seemed disrespectful to the guy, so I just had a chill fight with him.
Never thought I'd see the day where a ninja gaiden game with the visuals of sigma 2 could hold a candle to the craziness and goodness of OG NG2
The fact that you mentioned "Hayashi's stench" in this video's discription, shows me you realize that he is trash and should never be within 100 feet of a Ninja Gaiden title. For that, you've earned a subscriber😊
You think we can bully team ninja on twitter into adding this mod as a feature as a free update or something like a custom difficulty of sorts for is console peasants. Paying the modder of course. Most likely wont happen but a man can dream
I just found this video and I'm absolutely sad that this isn't the collection. The collection is still fun for me, even regular Sigma 2. It's not bad at all, just missing a lot for some reason? Might pick the PC version up, so I can play with this mod.
Absolutely glorious. Hats off to the modding community. Amazing gameplay
I can’t wait until this mod is on the game pass version also good video! High level ninja gaiden is awesome in its own special way.
You're amazing man!
Where did you get that HUD?
Nice mod showcase. It’s still really annoying how every version of these games adds and subtracts so much.
I absolutely love this mod... I even dare say I prefer the mod over OG NG2... but when the ninpo is disabled, you can die with a talisman and then you'll be able to use ninpo but after time I'll fix itself into no ninpo again.

After enabling every essential things from the NGS2 Black Mod (which makes the experience the closest to og NG2),
