10/10 game and the the only very good Zelda-like. Probably helped that Capcom and Kamiya were on good terms with Nintendo so they were less cautioned Okami could resemble Zelda too much

[Anonymous No.10454035]

0/10 game only held up by its graphics and sounds. A complete slog to play, no sense of fun and even less difficulty. Clearly made by someone who thought pausing the game every five seconds was the most fun part.

I know it's a shitpost but what do you even mean by that? I remember exploring the overworld for hours and unlocking everything while moving like the wind

I played Okami in a very dark moment in my life, and Issun's speech at the end of the game made me cry.

For me it was when he wasn't worthy of entering the Ark and Ammy, at the end of the day just being a dog on a mission, unceremoniously ditched him

Great game but it overstays its welcome by about 20 hours. I still need to go back and finish it. What's the best version to play now?

>but it overstays its welcome by about 20 hours.
Never got this complaint since it just keeps throwing new awesome things at you, literally new biomes, new villages, new encounters, new mechanics, new story bits. If you love the game, you're happy about that. I would get the complaint if the second half was mostly backtracking and dialogues like in many other games of similar size (most JRPGs)

[Anonymous No.10454558]

Tbh it might have been my fault for OCDly backtracking to every town and NPC after something changed. I had about 80 hours on my save and was at the last dungeon before I burned out.

One of the few games that deserve being called a masterpiece on several counts. Almost ecstatic how it combines swift gameplay, puzzle solving and exploration. In Zelda, this would be clunkily using a hookshot and then using an instrument for the wind, far outlasting the time these puzzles actually take solving in your head. And that's ignoring how fresh and innovative the brush gimmick itself was

Also, thoughts on Ammy in Marvel 3? She was one of my mains. Also loved Yami as the final boss of Tatsunoko vs Capcom.
Can't believe TvC and MvC3 were over a decade ago, fuck.

All the versions are good but IIRC you have to mod in the original credits on PC. Waggle controls on Wii can be fun but lack polishing

[Anonymous No.10454657]

So what are reasonable ways to make the game a bit more challenging like ignoring heart containers in Zelda? I suppose
>not putting any solar energy in health boosts
>not buying items and selling items you find
>ignoring Issun when he's trying to give you tips
This isn't even artificially gimping yourself because you can use the resources you gain by doing that on other things or save time

It's actually quite frustrating at times without items and health upgrades. Almost impossible to get the best score

awesome game

[Anonymous No.10454693]

absolutely.. I wonder if it's based on a japanese folk myth, or an actual reference to Dragon Ball.

[Anonymous No.10454720]

I remember getting pissed off the first time I beat the game because I was going for 100% but I was playing blind so I didn't know about the missable enemies in the emperor's palace. They were the ONLY things I missed without a guide and they're practically the only missable enemies in the game.

There's a few other things that are technically missable, like I think the sea serpent has missable enemies and you can't go back there, but you'd have to go out of your way to skip them, unlike the fucking enemies in the emperor's palace that you basically have to go out of your way to find.

I got Okami HD as a gift from a friend years ago. I got 3 hours in it as I simply prefer the original PS2 version.

I have like three copies of this game and no motivation to ever finish it. It looks absolutely beautiful, plays decently well but I always just get kinda bored halfway through and drop it. I don't think the game is bad but I've come to accept that it may just not be made for me.

[Anonymous No.10454946]

The only game where that usually ugly black outline cel shading looks good because it wants to look like a painting. And comic games like XIII I guess

The only two true miserable enemies are the Fire Doom Mirror in the Emperor's room when shrunk and the Clay Flyer in Kamiki past. The dog you can feed in Kamiki Past is also the only missable animal

This happened to me on the Wii.
Somehow when I played on PS3 I managed to miss them *again*, despite knowing in advance that they were missable. I think i just got wrapped up in enjoying the game.

Cool game, I like the beginning and middle, just fucking around not even trying and exploring. Like Psycohnauts.

If you take the game seriously it's not fun and I don't recommend it. Also, like Psychonauts, the tutorial is too fucking long.

People take that for granted today same with the painting art style. Clover Studios was like shooting star that came out of nowhere, showed the world what peak vidya looks like and then disappeared as quick as they arrived on the scene.

Just moved the camera before pausing time with the ink brush I guess- I can't remember it being a problem but I'm sure there was a lot of unnescessary repositioning of the camera

Same. Sometimes it would take a couple of tries to inch forward just so something was on camera but never had a REAL problem with it. Can’t believe I never thought to try move the camera in brush mode.

it's the other way around

>GI: Can you describe the team's reaction when Nintendo first announced that Link would be able to transform into a wolf in Twilight Princess and that it would feature predominantly into the gameplay?

>Inaba: Yeah, actually I was at E3 myself and I saw that live with my own eyes. And to be honest, at first I thought, "Those sons of~. What are they doing?! Had we announced it very much prior to that then I would have felt really disappointed as if they were ripping us off, but I think that the timing shows that they may have had that idea before. I don't think that they're directly trying to rip us off or anything. As a creator, I'd prefer that they didn't do that because it kind of takes away some of our thunder. But no hard feelings. I really like Zelda games so I'm cool with it.

That era was tough for Nintendo and bigN had to cope for real when they saw SOTC too. Remember that they went for shit like wii sports and wii music for a good decade after those incidents.

The drawing is literally what allows the game to have such good flow and be much faster than other games in the genre, see >>10454612. Besides being fun and almost like fighting game inputs (just like W101)

Nintendo had zero reason to cope about a game like SotC. It's one of those games in the style of the cinematic AAAslop Sony loves so much, little focus on gameplay and everything put into presentation. Completely different style than what Nintendo makes or would even want to make.

That's not even the same game. Shoulda said you can't jump in metal gear solid but that's also considered a masterpiece, but nintendrones are so fucking narcissistic they cant even talk about metal gear solid in the same sentence as masterpiece. So you use a completely different game to try and prove you can jump in oot. But I'm sure you're just joking, surely. Kek "but, anon it's technically Zelda" and you're technically retarded.

I liked the game but christ it physically gave me a head ache playing it. I don't know what it was about it. The only other game that did this was The Witness. Anyone else?
