I saw the trailer for way of the sword and thought it looked good so i bought onimusha 1&2 for the ps5 and already played through 1 and loved every second of it. Kinda gave me the same vibes ninja gaiden 1 gave me. Now i just need to play 2, too bad 3 and dawn of dreams arent on ps5 so i will probably have to watch a playthrough cos i don't have a pc.
Played 1-3 as a kid, absolutely loved them, assumed the series was dead but recently saw the news of a new game, so completed 1 over the weekend and am working through 2 again
Nice! I hope way of the sword delivers for both the long time fans and newcomers like me.
Man, I recently found the series too.
Instantly fell in love with it.
It's RE meets Sekiro
It is truly great, gave me the same old school vibes that ninja gaiden 1(3d) gave me and that is also a game i like, it makes sense since they were made around the same time, i think ninja gaiden 1 was 2004 and onimusha 1 is 2001
Hmm, i guess i could try running them on my laptop, i would hope the games are old enough that my laptop can run them
Specs of your laptop?
To be honest i don't even remember, i'll try emulating them when i have the time and i will see what the performance is like
Emulate them on PC.
Onimusha 3 was the pinnacle of the series.
Dawn was ok ish.

Still the BEST cinematic on the PS2 even surpassing stuff like Metalgear solid 3 or final Fantasy X
I don't have a pc
Laptop? Steam deck? Anything besides a playstation?
The third was indeed the pinnacle of the series! DoD was not an Onimusha. In any way
Part 2 I’m so so on personally but I’m getting thru it
