Why do some people think Okami is one of Kamiya's weakest games? Anonymous 09/20/2025 (Sat) 06:25:53 Id: 411d98 No. 1769723
I know that it's very easy and its combat has very little depth but I don't see these points as flaws. Okami is not an arcadey action game like DMC and Bayonetta, instead it's an action adventure game. It's way more experiential and that's amazing. I love its art style, its world, and its characters. All of those things are as important as the gameplay in this type of game and Okami and nails all of these things. Also, I don't get why so many people have issue with its length because if Okami was shorter then the experiential aspects of the game would be greatly diminished as Clover would have to cut a lot of areas and characters in order to make the game shorter.

>>1769723 Okami is great. I remember taking a 6 month break in playing it because the entire first arc against Orochi already feels like a full game and by the time I got to the Capital to dispel Yami, about 40 hours had passed already. It's a great game, it just took me awhile to beat. They're working on a sequel, apparently. Not sure how that's going to work out.

>>1769812 I think Kamiya can pull off a sequel because he never made a bad game before so I don't see how he will fail with Okami 2. At worst the game will still be good but just not as good as the original title.

>>1770900 I explained in the OP that Okami is not that type of game. It wouldn't be better if it had really deep combat.

>>1769723 I think a lot of people who dislike the game, simply got filtered by the first hour or two of the game, in which there is barely any combat, just a lot of running around and cutscenes. The game does become much better after that as you unlock more abilities, and fights get more interesting, but that intro is very bad, especially on subsequent playthroughs, Imagine if Devil May Cry 3 started with 1 hour of platforming with long cutscenes every 5 minutes, in which Dante slowly unlocks his basic abilities, before starting Mission 1 : A crazy party.

>>1771399 Slow openings suck in action games but I think Okami benefits from it as that allows you to soak in the game's setting

>>1769723 Slow pacing.

>>1771935 How is it slow? The game progresses the plot at a good pace and introduces new characters and new locations pretty often too.

>>1769723 Many people (incorrectly) call it a Zelda clone, so people go into it expecting something like Zelda and then get disappointed when it turns out to be something totally different.

>>1772677 Fire up okami again man. Its like 40 minutes before you're even out of the tutorial area. And another 40 before you even to shinshu field. The game is good but it moves like molasses. And while I like issun, he may make even more random interjections than even fi in skyward sword.
