The graphics are wrapped in shiny new high-resolution textures, but are otherwise the same as they were in , and boy oh boy do they look it. Those pre-rendered backgrounds and low-polygon count character models look absolutely primitive by today's standards.
There are games running on your phone that look better. If anything, freshening up the textures without bringing anything else into the modern era really brings out the creakiness of the PS2-era graphics. One of the most glaring old-school quirks in Onimusha: Warlords are its unskippable cutscenes.
I played through Onimusha on Nintendo Switch, and even on the small screen in handheld mode, the backgrounds looked tired and hopelessly dated. Character animations are stiff, and faces have an unnatural plastic smoothness to them.
Their fingers don't move at all, stuck in a permanent, almost Ken-doll-like half open pose during cutscenes. There's a weird twitch to them, too, when they're supposed to be otherwise motionless. The pre-rendered cutscenes were a real treat in , but in , they look their age. Now it just looks bad. Speaking of which, one of the most glaring old-school quirks in Onimusha: Warlords are its unskippable cutscenes.
You can't even skip through dialogue. Instead, you are required to watch everything unfold. It's incredibly frustrating when you lose to a boss, or otherwise die, and have to sit through the same cutscene again. Death is another part of Onimusha where its aged mechanics are front and center. There's no modern save system here, so you must find a magic mirror to mark your progress.
I found it really irritating, especially since boss fights don't have save points near them. Dying against a boss means not only do you have to rewatch an unskippable cutscene, but you also have to retrace your steps through the castle between the last save point and the boss fight. For all its dusty gameplay mechanics and frustrating old-school backtracking, I still found myself enjoying playing through Onimusha. There's a lot of back and forth here. Since the backgrounds are stationary and prerendered, as was the style at the time, I had a hard time getting a sense of direction.
Japanese actor Takeshi Kaneshiro, who played the voice of main character Samanosuke in the original game, also joined the project as a guest creator. The Japanese voices have been newly recorded, and the brand new soundtrack promises to be even more spectacular than the original. In an attempt to unify Japan, Yoshimoto Imagawa's army departed Suruga for the capital. With only 2, soldiers, Nobunaga Oda raided the Imagawa camp.
This encounter is known worldwide as the Battle of Okehazama. From atop a nearby hill, a young man named Samanosuke Mitsuhide Akechi watched this scene unfold. Samanosuke, who refused the beckoning of renowned warlords and traveled as he liked, was the nephew of Mitsuhide Akechi, who would one day be the leader of the rebellion at Honnoji.
It was only a year later that soldiers and servants began mysteriously disappearing at Inabayama Castle, the residence of Yoshitatsu Saito.
Yoshitatsu's younger sister, Princess Yuki, sent Samanosuke a letter detailing these troubling incidents. Upon receiving her letter, Samanosuke rushed to Inabayama Castle.
