Yea "this was dark souls before dark souls" line is as overused and boring as "this is the dark souls of". Dark Souls didn't invent "hard", hard games existed before it, we get it. Namco marketed the shit out of the idea of Dark Souls being the hardest game ever because it worked really well for them and they got a lot of attention. But Dark Souls was never that hard, it wasn't even designed to be. People should drop this crap because at this point everyone and their grandma already beat Dark Souls, it isn't the holy grail of hard games it used to be. Comparing any game to dark souls isn't really saying much anymore.

@@Gamerextra1029 To say Onimusha didnt have an identity is wrong at the very least, and laughable at the worst. It was a cross between RE and DMC, It stood out plenty well on its own. You mean, Genji didnt have much of an identity, it was crazy similar and pretty solid but it was just a discount Oni. This was the first franchise of the capcom action adventures to have a "Tower" with Genma Oni on the xbox before DMC got the bloody palace. Plot direction doesnt change the identity, the gameplay was always intact they just needed to throw some spice in there. Having multiple characters with different play styles definitely helped that. It wasnt a bad game at all, had its flaws but it was going in the right direction. Its just its slower paced combat was getting burned by Ninja gaiden and DMC at the time.
@MasterCode862 жыл бұрын
this is not like dark souls...its a good game but the similarities are superficial at best. For one, levels do not have grace like checkponts, you do not lose souls absorbed in death and you are not given nearly as much control of your build and weapon options as is a porper souls game. Really, stop calling good games the Dark Souls of X or the Darks Souls before Dark Souls, you sound like a simp for a game. A game i love still....kind of weird if you ask me. there are Plenty of other words and descriptors for good games.

I believe its called Shin Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams in Japanese, to signify that the game wasn't intended as a true Onimusha 4 but a new take on the Onimusha formula overall. Literally translates to New Ogre Warrior: Dawn of Dreams if I'm not mistaken. Onimusha 3 sold poorly but did very well critically. Capcom decided to make this one solely because the fans were so passionate about the franchise from what I've heard. If the leaks are to believed, this won't be the last Onimusha.

I guess this series really has DIED. Straight to the point. But seriously, the series carried a very consistent feel and theme throughout the first 3 mainline games then the fourth one is just so different that it doesn't even feel like an Onimusha game anymore. Seeing how the series ended this way, it would have been way better for everything to conclude in Demon Siege with Samanosuke starting it and ending it.

Yo Matt, by the way, the US/EU version got screwed over in the same way game companies made US/EU versions of games harder to battle the rentals. The japanese version is definitely worth playing with the better balancing overall, and it has full english options, both in text and voice. Though, we are real champs for getting through the US version ^_^. But still...all the hours in the dark realm, those long, annoying boss battles....it never had to be that way (especially the last bit of the 2nd disc). Please play Onimusha 2 next if you ever get the chance though ^u^. it's interesting. (otherwise, as for Jubei, all out attack mode is what's getting her killed so fast XD. it drains HP in turn for doing more damage from memory. Wait and recover mode (down on dpad) will heal her and force her to block, but you might have already figured that out)
