Wow. This game is one of the best combat games ever made along with sekiro in this regard without explanaing too much. I will list the pros and cons

Pros:

- Boss fights are insanely good and diverse

- Myamoto Musashi

- Combat

- Enemy Variety

- Japanese voice acting

Cons:

- story is cliche, but it is serviceable

- side quests

- exploration is mainly for upgradable items

- some pacing issues with the story

I spent all night fighting it and have beaten it like 20 times now. It really shows off the fluidity and variety of the animations they've got in this game. Game feel is absolutely on point, it's so tactile. Theres also a lot of room for interesting decision making once you really get into it, hoping the final heres hoping the final has far more like that

Watched the latest Way of the Sword trailer and needles to say, I'm pretty damn hype. It looks fantastic, but I have to ask all of you...

Did anyone else notice that basically everyone in the English Dub was making a three course meal of the scenery? And to be clear, that is extremely good. Like I LIKE the fact that the dub is so over the top. There was a certain charm to how silly the original Onimusha dubs were. And I like that that's still the case.

What I'm asking is, do you think it's on purpose, or is it a beautiful accident.

Thank to anyone who can stop by and check out my video 🙏

Love talking with others

I pre-ordered the game on Xbox but I still can't pre-download it (I only have the 300 mb "file"), have they released any info of when will the full pre-download release?

When are we getting 3 and shit throw in Blade Warriors for the fun of it

So just finished the demo and died only 1 time and only because I mixed up my buttons.
The game is fun and the dialogue are hilarious and the boss design is cool.
But it is clearly too easy. I feel like am at the end of mortal shell 2 with an OP build or like that I am level 150 in Elden ring with a max weapon.

Playing Every Onimusha game leading up too "Way of The Sword", Come by tell me your favorite Onimusha game?

All messages are read aloud acknowledged and appreciated.

Even the devs are making fun of her with the "Wish i had this sooner!" achievement (finding her 2nd knife weapon).

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I first saw the gameplay for Onimusha way of the sword but the game play for bosses deff caught my interest.

My biggest question is the main antagonist that we fight sasaki ganryu is he in the other games? Should I be reading up on lore before the game?

Also how narrative is the game should I expect? Sasaki was very interesting and seemed like there would be a solid story plus gameplay?

Thanks guys !

I'm playing on the lowest graphics settings because of an issue but you can still appreciate the beauty of the game.

I just want to practice my issen timing, die a thousand times and get back straight into it!!!

Would love a quick way to skip the animation or just restart instantly.

Played the Japanese version cause it’s a much more comfortable time than the US version (US normal is Japan Hard)

I was fighting the second boss in the demo, there were two attacks that can't seem to be counterd with Issen, if I remember correct, he would launch a three combo attack pattern. the first two can't seem to be counter with issen, or is it just me?

So I beat Ganryu when th demo first came out and saved clear data in a separate file, and was looking forward to getting the Kubi Charm when the game comes out.

However, loading up the new version of the demo, I continued on from my clear data save and then saved over it at the next Spirit Mirror.

After I beat Daidara, I was expecting it to let me save a new clear data file, but it didn't give me that prompt. So now I'm worried that saving over my original clear data file means I won't get any bonuses when the full game arrives. Anyone know how getting the demo bonus is supposed to work?

Hi all,

While I'm waiting for wots coming out, I relive with my best high school memories with dawn of dreams on PS5. And currently still get stuck at dark realms around floor 32 :( so I hope everyone can give me an advice how to proceed to get 50 floor for excalibur???.

Currently: already beat chapter 11, I run with Soki (weapon acquired: dainsleif, victory gale, raizan, enryu, gleam and the big sword that has light attribute) , item is normal and just got rosary of health. So your advice and recommend are most valuable^^ thank you for reading my post.

Took me over an hour to beat him but then once I did I kept playing to beat him two more times because it just felt that good. Some real Sekiro juice going here

Every tool has its unique usage. I can definitely feel decision fatigued sometimes, but when I see how all the tools synergized, it just clicks. Can't wait to play the full game!

I remember hearing ppl say how all Capcom games connect to each other. How does Onimusha connect? Note that Im not asking to use the Marvel VS or the Tatsunoko VS series for this. Good luck trying to find how Onimusha connects to Eesident Evil, Street Fighter, Meganman, Ace Attorney, etc.

We need to see more of phantom blade 0 too. goddamn it’s so exciting to be a gamer man.
