The Disappointing Return of Naruto Storm | NARUTO X BORUTO Ultimate Ninja STORM CONNECTIONS

[@Rough_Estimates]

All the pushing of Boruto rubbed me the wrong way. They never gave us the gold and silver brothers, the 7 swordmen of the mist, Orochimaru 8 headed hydra, jugo cursed mark 2, etc.

[@brandonsupreme8380]

Yeah its do dumb lol

[@biblefn]

To be fair, the game has boruto in the title but there’s a HUGE lack of boruto characters in the game still. I do agree though Naruto characters should get love too. 4/5 of season pass is otsutsuki characters.

[@FallenPhoenix-ml5mn]

Its literally the only bussines decision that makes sense, all those characters you named are complete nobodies who aren't even characters. Boruto and its characters actually exist naratively and you can create movesets and abilities from the anime and manga instead of a bunch of nobodies with no set moves or fans. The others are just pallete swaps of existing characters like Orochimaru and Jugo who barely has any distinct moves to choose from.

The problem with that mod is there’s no ranked or matchmaking, you have to find people with the mod on discord which means you can’t play someone on your own time. The mod is cool but storm 4 is 8 years old and sluggish to me but that is a good alternative if you want to use connections characters even though it looks like piracy importing them to another game.

[@DavidLucian]

For me Naruto Storm Connections it doesn’t feels like a new Storm game at all, they changed only a few buttons commands and nothing more, the fact that they removed Tilts and they put the tilts moves on the second jutsus it's pretty lame, disappointing and lackluster, not to mention that they removed the jutsus selection completely from the beginning of the fight. 🤦🏻‍♂️ This game feels more like an update DLC than like an actual New Storm Game. But honestly, for me Storm 1 will remain the most Unique one from the series and the closest to the anime itself because of the very dynamic gameplay features, my reasons: Intro of characters before the encounter, unique jutsus that didn't came back to the other Storm games, longer and diverse movesets for almost any character, Awakenings in Storm 1 have also Ultimate Jutsus, Jutsus Clashes and Wall Fighting... and I can go on and on to state it why Storm 1 gameplay was the most unique one from the Storm Series, just try to Imagine Storm 4 gameplay with Storm 1 gameplay features, In my opinion that will be the Perfect Storm game. The First Storm game has the most Unique gameplay features perspective and the particular presentation of the game was so ahead of it's time in my opinion, the only downside of the first Storm game was the very lacking Story Mode Interactions, and from Storm 3 the developers cut and shortned the movesets of characters, that's why I don't agree with their choices. (By the way, my favourite Storm games and I will put them in my personal order will be: 1.Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 1 and Generations. (these have my favourite vibe and charm of the anime itself because of the dynamic gameplay features) 2. Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2( for the unique Story and some Unique Boss Battles and let's not forget that Iconic "Calm Before the Storm" OST from the Characters Selection Screen and many more diverse soundtracks) 3. Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 3 Full Burst (Because of the more well-rounded diverse Story Perspective and very epic Boss Battles and also the soundtrack "Outside Konoha" and others soundtracks as well) 4. Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 (mostly because of the unique option to change/switch between your characters team during the fight, this particular option mechanics should've been already in the game from the very first Storm game in my opinion) 5. Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Revolution (because of the abused and annoying Counter mechanic) 🤷🏻‍♂️

As a content creator, you got my curiosity. 7:40 got my attention.

[@biblefn]

Great Video! 7:45 had me dying lol. In all honesty I have 600 hours on connections and I’m top 30 in the world. The game isn’t bad at all it just needed to be delayed because of all the problems it had at launch like pre patch, no custom lobbies, and rage quits but not only that, the game price is not justifiable. Bandai was able to get away with pricing storm for that amount with content like that back then but people are beginning to realize they want more from a storm game. People call connections a storm dlc or 4.5 but in all honesty if you go by those standards every storm game has been a dlc. Storm 1 is the only unique storm game in the franchise. After Storm 2 every game has the same movesets, same stages, and added new or changed mechanics to make the game feel different. People expected a brand new game that was different from the previous titles due it being 7 years since the last title but connections was only made in almost 1 or 2 years. Storm connections isn’t the problem, people are just sick of Storm. What the people need is a storm reboot. Which is what CC2 was going for in the beginning. Storm connections wasn’t suppose to be the game it is now. A open world storm game was in development at CC2 but it was scrapped and Storm connections was made last minute. There’s proof of dev builds for the game being recorded as early as 2019. The problem is Bandai rushing titles. Storm 4 was rushed, demon slayer was rushed, and also connections. I see the game connections was trying to be. Storm 4 is 8 years old, locked at 30 fps. Storm 4 was still an actively played game and it made BIG numbers over the years so we were in due for an updated storm for the newer generations of consoles. Storm connections does that with slightly better netcode and 60 fps. I also enjoy the game mechanics making the roster more viable compared to Storm 4s and the character customization. Storm connections had the formula to be successful they just should’ve made the game cheaper or free to play and profit from a in game shop where you can buy accessories and dlc characters. Also they should’ve added an online version of the Storm revolution battle royale mode. In my opinion that would’ve saved the game but I believe connections will grow into a good game with consistent updates and be the definitive Storm.

Just a small part to say but having new mechanics is kinda unique if it doesnt go to the next games.

[@PokeHokage]

Very comprehensive coverage of the storm series I love it. Just wanted to add a few things: false or misleading advertising and storm 4s voice acting too. Storm 3 had v jump magazine scans for the edo kage and kurama Naruto. For them to just be story mode (or an ultimate jutsu) which felt like a spit in the face, who the fuck releases a magazine scam promoting new characters in a game that are just normal enemies you only fight in the story mode. It's obvious they did this to bait you into thinking they were new characters. Also storm 4 went out of its way to make sure you didn't know about their dumb anime stills until release. Every ad for the game showed only the cut scenes that were animated. Also may be a dub thing but the voice acting for story mode was pretty bad, but one line on particular still sticks with me and I'm not sure if it's because of the translation team being to literal for the voice actor or something. When Madara joins Obito in the story Naruto says and I quote "Weren't you fighting THAT grandma."... That grandma? Bro wtf why wouldn't he say "Grand ma Tsunade" it sounds impersonal and like he doesn't really know who she is. Small gripe but still there were others I felt were off. That one just stands out.

[@orokusaki4987]

We’d be lucky to get the 4 non-playable supports from Storm 1, let alone those 3. I wish they remade the Storm 1 game with more cutscenes and story. Land of Waves, Forest of Death, proper Sound Four battles…

Can we please get this guy to 1k subs? This video was awesome and you’re reference game is insane man😂👏

Thanks it's the years of internet brain rot doing its thing.

I despise Boruto yet they keep trying to push it down our throats. Like dang I was waiting on some more of the reanimated Shinobi and stuff.

[@Casual__Chris]

Goddamn when the Storm 4 music came on that hit my SOUL

[@Ots_Nero]

Just an idea. What IF. They make a storm game based off the past. Time of Madara and Hashirama where all the clans were fighting before they established the leaf. Or what Indra did after betraying Hagoromo. Or introduce Toronie and Hamura and the moon/hyuga clan dispute. Since they making original stories now.

[@imikez3815]

That would require a lot of input and direction from kishimoto. And he's already so busy and overworked. Thats not happening. People buy for "naruto". Youll lose sales if you market a game forcused on just past characrers.

[@hazelcrisp]

@@imikez3815 Yeah the warring period is not that interesting. It's just the Senju and Uchiha fighting everyone else and then each other until Madara and Hashirama did their thing

[@xinf3ctdx]

Or what if they didn’t and just made a game based on something that people care about? You know what your idea would be good for? An anime adaptation. Not a game.

[@Steckdose_]

Storm 4 had the best battles Storm 3 had the best Storymode Storm Revolution was one of my favorite games, because the tournament even if it didn´t make any sense at all reminded me of Storm 3´s tournament side story and using the rails to divebomb a Rasengan into 3 enemies at once felt really satisfying However I also never played online and basically only had 1 Human Opponent from Ultimate Ninja 3 all the way to Ultimate Ninja Storm 4: My older brother. And my best memories in the games usually came from playing either with (doing the campaigns and switching between battles/segments) or against him. And honestly one of the biggest reasons, besides Connections seeming like a glorified Storm 4 DLC from the trailers, the thought of realistically not playing against him as we´re both adults now, meant I really didn´t have much of an incentive to buy the game at all. And seeing this VIdeo and the reactions from the Community really makes it seem like the proper decision.

[@NoiseTank]

We need 8ing to come back and make a new clash of ninja game is the moral of the story. IMO much better gameplay then the ultimate ninja series.

[@steveharveysmustache3988]

Dude the amount of people I’ve seen defending this game is crazy. Mostly because they’re new players, I’ve seen a lot of “this is my first storm game and I love it idk why others don’t like it” which is fine but that also means they don’t have the history with the series to realize this game is a complete scam. You’re paying full price for what is essentially uns1 with a couple more characters and costumes. Also I find it suspicious that pretty much every review posted online has been overwhelmingly negative but if you look at the game rating on official sites they all say 3-4 stars. Shit google says 91 percent liked it which I find extremely hard to believe which makes me think they’re fudging numbers or paying off official reviewers

[@malakaithedemigod]

Give us a new and improved clash of ninja with next generation graphics

That music touches my soul. NUNS2 character menu. That game got me into Naruto, and anime, and arena fighters, and now 12 years later, a traditional fighting game player. In other words, this music is why I can footsie in SF6 well?? Idk thanks for listening. Great video.

[@gentletal5101]

i played and beat Ninja Impact on psvita. my god that was worth 20 bucks. its literally beginning of Shippuden to the end of the 4 Kage summit. fucking sasuke v danzo was a legit boss fight, with button promps

[@drparadox7833]

We need storm definitive edition which spans from episode one to the finale, with no history mod, everything being a story mod and recreating previous storm games epic moments.

the first naruto game with full german VA

[@borub.817]

It literally is the worst Naruto game out there. If they just would give us these characters as dlc for Storm 4 no one would ever have a problem with the storm series but yeah they did the destroyed this franchise. We need a new Naruto game. A well crafted story mode what covers the entire Naruto saga from Naruto's journeys until Boruto's, interactive story cutszene, player choises and branching paths that can impact the storys outcome, more Boruto Characters, All awakenings like Jugos, Sasuke's Juin Mode, Naruto 1, 2 or 3 Tailed kyubi. More Team ultimate jutsus did you ever think thow shameful it is what we still don't even have a Team Ulti between Jiraiya-Naruto, Naruto-Sakura, Team Yamato, Team Kakashi, Team Taka, Sasuke-Orochimaru and much more. Openworld is the most important thing to make a Naruto game fun to play. Just imagine a real openworld naruto game like (Assassin's creed or The Broken bond) and to be able visiting Konoha, Suna, Land of Waves and the whole Ninja world from Naruto. In a Openworld game we also need many interesting side quests or minigames like catching animals like Narutos first mission, climbing from a tree to a tree, push ups with rock lee and guy or ramen contest (imagine doing all these stuff online with other players). Character customisation and much more. Game developers are just to lazy today.. they just want easy money from fans nothing more. Look how many pupular anime game bandai namco and they "smal" game developmers created like Jujutsu Kaisen Cursed clash, Shinobi Striker, One Justice My hero, Black Clover Quartat knights and and and! Woud you rate this games more than 6/10?

[@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard]

Ok Mr. Ideas Guy, tell me how long that would actually take to make 😂 we'll get yandere dev right on that feature-packed pipe dream of a game, maybe he can outsource to Chris-Chan

[@borub.817]

@@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard What are you trying to tell me now? Just accept the fact that Bandai Namco small companies can't maje any good new game anymore expect some some games like Dbkakarot, the storm series until 4 and pirate warriors 3. But even this, imagine a Openworld One Piece game..Exploring the ocean with noumerous islands and the world one piece world with luffys crew beeing able to cutting trees, fishing, beating monster and cooking like Sanji. Beeing able to play the whole story. Sailing and Ship Management, allowing players to upgrade and customiuze their ship including weaponry, sails, aethetics. Recruting manage the crew and naval combat and of course beeing able to play it with friends too in a online mode. I think every one piece would like a game like this and im sure bandai namco has the money to make a game like this.. they are just to lazy and dont want to put so much energy in games like this.

[@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard]

@@borub.817 companies, especially Japanese companies like Bandai, Shueisha, and Nintendo are old-fahsioned and the only language they speak is money. Making money, cutting corners to save money. That’s what they care about because they're just making licensed merchandise off of brand recognition. You would have to pry the rights from their cold, dead hands to have a game like that made. Even if they did care enough to make the next DBZ Kakarot, that takes time and resources. Even just a cash grab arena fighter takes time and resources, as lazy as they are. All you can really do is hope they're that generous and are doing something good behind the scenes, but I wouldn't expect much from an old-fashioned, greedy Japanese company suckling revenue off of big IP's. They don't like change and have a really counter-prodictive work ethic and mentality. To say the least, they're out of touch and they like it that way. All this isn't to say having ideas is bad, but I wouldn't expect much out of lazy rights holders. To them, games are merch. I'm sure the devs themselves don't get the time or resources to make what they actually want. It's all so poorly-managed.

[@Just_Some_Yonko_With_A_Beard]

@@borub.817 and like I said, money is the only language publishers speak. I don't think enough people listen when they hear that the best way to tell the publisher their product sucks is to not buy it. Indie devs will publish gold for 20 bucks while AAA and big licensed publishers will shill out slop at full price then support it with years upon years of minimal DLC

Well, you’re going to deal with Storm 2 slander. Most boring Stom game not named Connections.

[@whatis9465]

it was a worse generations and revolution. We were ALL hyped, with promising new pictures of Cool character selection menus and the promise of epic retelling. Firstly it wasn't a full remake of the whole series so what were they gonna do? go over some parts, we just had to play storm 4 for 7 years, we are done with the end of Naruto. Second they weren't going over boruto as it doesn't have enough content for a whole storm game, so what really were they delivering to us? It was always misconstrued to the fans, Bandai clearly didn't know what they were doing, they treated this like any of there other a million games. Storm is the best anime game bandai has and one of the best games they do. The severely messed up this one.

i would love an elden ring style naruto game. open world adventure, customizable ninja, single player with online features. co-op and ninja invasions would be so much fun.

[@Hermi0Taurus]

Every thing I had saw of this game is why I wasn't invested in trying to get it. Even with the news that they would finally add Kurenai Yuhi into the game is nice... until I also see that it seems like the *only* major thing that I can think of that's part of that *pack.* Even compared to the other characters, it's funny that she seems "isolated" from what little I've seen. I'm not against them repeating the rosters, but they *do* need to put in the work for a "Naruto x *BORUTO*" kinda game.

[@FlyingMonet]

Instead of changing the mechanics again removing features like tilt or shurikens, they should’ve just created a new game polishing Storm 4 with the features fans have been asking for for years (4th combo, story mode as good as Storm 1, characters fans have been asking for, etc)

[@justamediocreyoutubechanne4172]

I just got storm connections recently and I'm actually liking it. I didn't know it had hate to it, i just assumed every naruto storm game was better than the last

[@katsu1668]

I would also say that Shinobi Striker isnt successful/live from DLC alone, they also do Buffs/Nerfs of moves and sometimes reworks of jutsu, and not to mention new maps. That and the fact that the fighting and gameplay overall a first to the series (which to be honest a 1v1 fighting game gets boaring pretty fast)

[@kentrelljohnson49]

They didn’t give us any non cannon characters from any of the Naruto movies to increase the roster and playable characters they took wall running off which is crazy to me because their literally ninjas that can run on walls that shouldn’t have left out. There was no environmental destruction like sparking zero. Like man we need unreal engines they know what they’re doing.
