Ranari_Kai Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I really enjoyed Death Mark. so I'm really excited for this sequel. Does anybody know if this is just a game in the same style as Death Mark or possible even a real sequel? It would be great if the storylines are actually connected. I would be especially interested if Mary plays a role in NG... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's considered the second game in the series and, as far as I'm aware, it has the same gameplay mechanics of overcoming the evil spirits via defeating them or bonding with them. We've not got our review copy yet but Death Mark was one of my most popular reviews last year so I can't wait to jump into this one. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranari_Kai Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 Thanks for the answer @turniplord. I already preordered it. I also read on amazon. that NG is "...the companion story to last year's award-winning horror adventure, Death Mark." That sounds intriguing.

turniplord Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Got the platinum last night (review copy). Review will hopefully be out tomorrow. To answer some questions, it’s not technically a sequel. There are some references and nods but it’s a new threat, curse, situation and set of people. Also, not sure why the trophy page on here has an alternative name of ‘no good’. That’s not what NG stands for. think it took me about 40-45 hours to get the plat. That’s one full playthrough of all bad endings (easy enough to do) then holding skip and working out the purification’s for each spirt for the other endings. will explain more in the review, like I did with death mark, but some things are better in this game but there’s one thing I didn’t like. But I won’t mention that here oh, nobody’s brought it up yet but all western versions are identical to the Japanese version, no censor, no blacked out images, nothing removed or altered. Also, you can pick the amount of jump scares randomly in the scenes. I had it on scary and i jumped a number of times. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info, I love your reviews, sometimes I even buy some games because you recommend them ! P.S. It seems release date is Oct 25th, so the date is wrong too.

An yeah, it's out tomorrow! I've been swamped with things this week, so I only just managed to get my review out in time! Here's the link (it's a long one): https://www.gamepitt.co.uk/spirit-hunter-ng-ps4-review/ I may be a little biased as I loved Death Mark, but I don't care the game had me hooked from beginning to end four times. If the Vita version was a separate platinum, I would have probably picked that up as well - but it isn't this time by the looks of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranari_Kai Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 I started the game yesterday. I have just finished the prologue but I like what i've seen so far. Nice atmosphere and setting. The main character seems a bit a bit of a cliche, but I'm not disliking him. I really dig the sound effects, which are straight out of death mark. And of course the little nods to the prequel, like the idol dressing up like Mary and a few odd comments I think I will have a good time with this game. I won't rush it or play it with a guide. I going for a blind first run, to enjoy it as much as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, normal is save everyone but one. if you kill more than one (not including the one you have no control over), you get the bad ending 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
