Acolyte and Warrior were easy, yeah, but Mentor and Master Ninja were legitimately difficult. If you thought those were "easy as heck" too, then I think it's less of an issue about the game's difficulty and more about you being really good at video games.
As far as NGIII goes, that game was a HUGE disappointment. Not 3/10 disappointing (lol ign), but it was very underwhelming for a game carrying the NG title.
Honestly I just didn't really get that bothered about NG2. It just didn't feel as challenging as everyone said it was, even on Master. Only achievements I have left are for the DLC but the missions have never been on Deal of The Week
I haven't tried NG3 yet but it looks awesome regardless of what everyone says. In terms of story, who plays NG games for the story? Same with Bayonetta and DMC. Crap stories but you play for the gameplay.
