Getting a friend in here for some crazy ninja action is probably where most of the fun is though. Going forward, don’t lose those battles, you’ll have to load, sit through some dialogue, load again, then fight.
Except I was wrong, and that was basically a glorified restart button. I then thought that my loss became canon within this world, within my version of events and I thought that was really neat. However, after a loss, you’re pulled back to the present wherein you get some dialogue. There’s a very unfortunate missed opportunity though, as characters reflect on past battles, it’s up to the player to win the fight. Again, here’s where being a fan will take you far. Play as Naruto and friends as you explore the ninja world, completing little quests, doing battles, and reminiscing about the past. When you’re done with the story mode, you can always hop on over to the adventure mode, Which is mostly some single-player busy work. The roster is huge, with over a hundred characters, so you’re certain to find your favourite from the show and run wild. It’s near impossible to enjoy these matches as you try to catch up with an enemy constantly just out of reach. The only frustrations you’ll run into are AI characters that will dance away from every attack and instead focus on using long-distance attacks. Fighting is fluid and stylish, while sometimes it can feel like waiting for someone to run out of substitutions (a move that dodges the attack and places you behind your foe) and there are some serious balancing issues, but that doesn’t stop it from being fun. They’re easily the best things about Ninja Storm 4 -as they should be. The fights are fantastic, thanks to some huge spectacles and over-the-top special attacks. This is probably where being a fan will help, because otherwise you’re just kind of waiting for the drawn out cutscenes to finish playing. Although that’s not really a complaint since starting over would be agonizing because more often than not, you’re fighting the main antagonist, over and over and over, ad nauseam.
You’ll be revived on the spot with max health and a damage or defence boost of your choice while keeping your enemy at the same health if you die. The story mode isn’t going to run you very long and it pushes you back into the fight if you die, like it’s hurrying you to the next bit.
