So, i recently bought the game red steel 2 and i beat it, it was an amazing game! although since i had never played the first one ( i never knew about it actually) i had alot of questions like, why was he banished, where is his actual master, etc so i searched up on Youtube, red steel 1 to figure it all out and the games look nothing alike!! i mean the first one is like nothing but guns and the characters arnt the same ( well at least i dont think so) could someone explain why?
Well, since Red Steel was one of the games that released when the Wii came out, initially people thought it was would be amazing and bought it on impulse since there wasn't a lot of options in the beginning. Turns out that the game was extremely horrible and no one liked it. So the company who made Red Steel (sorry, I forgot their name) wanted to take a totally different approach to their next game. That's why its all different. I haven't played either game so if there were any cliffhangers in the first game unfortunately you never know what happened.
Red Steel 2 isn't really a sequel to Red Steel 1 in a normal sense. The reason the new one is named Red Steel 2 is because of the Sword + Gun combat, which was also in the first game (even though the sword part wasn't good in the first one). Other than that, I'm guessing Ubisoft just wanted to take a different, less realistic approach with it.
