Anyone who complains about the camera just doesn’t know how to use it. Learning to tap RB when you need to is just like learning to hit LB for block. So, essentially, you guys could just as easily be whining, “the game is too hard because all the attacks get through! My character has no defense! I hate this game!” oh, wait… all you have to do is hit LT, and that problem goes away.

Hit RB when you need to change face, hit LT when you need to block, and attack buttons when you need to attack. Problem solved.

Oh, also, FYI, the camera can be freely rotated at any time via the right analog stick which, when done properly, does not detract from the gameplay at all.

I admit that recreational gamers without lightning reflexes might have problems, but in all honesty, NG 2 is not for the casual gamer. Also, you aught to try playing an Onimusha title… There are several places in that game where there IS no camera control… just pre-determined camera positions in different areas a-la Resident Evil.

Say what you want, but do not call me a liar. I have never had a single issue with camera control in NG 1 or NG 2, and I doubt I ever will.
