r/Onimusha

I honestly thought the Earth shakers were my favorite because of how OP they were, but by the time I got to my fifth play through nothing came close to the firebird flute. When fully charged this thing hits like a Mac truck, but it’s how much of the bosses health it melts over time where it really shines!! Don’t get me wrong I enjoyed many of the other ones like the flashing void to quickly finish off an enemy or the wind whipper near torches to take out mobs but Firebird flute was still my go to!

Just unlocked the platinum for Onimusha WotS and thought of recommending one of the Ninja Gaiden games.

Ninja Gaiden 2 Black is a remaster of the beloved NG2 from 2008/2009. This game's combat is absolute peak, way ahead of its time.

The game offers 9 different weapons, each has its own unique combos/movesets. When it flows, it's absolutely a rewarding experience.

If you've already played it, what do you think of it?

Am I the only one who thinks Onimusha's side quests feels like a chore to do? Lion dog, hidden chests, etc. I know it rewards you with items, charms, cosmetics and other stuffs but i feel like it is so dragging.

Speaking of dragging, i keep seeing the same old enemies when i explore. It gets so repetitive and got bored for awhile. The only thing its keeping me was the main story which is good.

Don't get me wrong though, the game is great. The combat is so satisfying, the story is interesting, and the bosses are cool but it is not a perfect game like other people says.

I'd rate it 8/10 respectfully for what its worth. But hey, its my opinion. Whats yours? I'm happy to see your thoughts.

I was worried going into this fight after reading all the posts and horror stories about how hard the final boss is and how long it took everyone, but I surprisingly beat him in maybe an hour or slightly more. The first phase became easy but the second one almost tempted me to look up a guide because of how quickly I'd get stomped at the beginning of it until I adjusted lol. The third phase actually wasn't too bad, just had to spam deflects and stall out for the Oni Awakening but yeah this wasn't as stressful as I thought it would be.

Despite a few issues I really enjoyed the game overall, especially its amazing parry system and the sword combat in general.

This was a very intense but super fun play to go for. By the end Yoshi’s movements looked slow while the first couple times I couldn’t even get a hit in and it was over. It got me thinking about how many more years I can enjoy an action game like this while my motor function can still keep up. Great job Capcom, this is definitely one of the most memorable action I’ve played this year. RE: Requiem plat was really satisfying too.

Now that’s a lot of damage

Capcom didn’t disappoint me with this gem at all. Great addition to the franchise. I need to chill I’m kind of drunk on issen.
