I hope Sonny starts another story game soon. not omori though

Otsonny!! Ahh, what a journey. The last time I watched a streamer play okami was silvervale a couple years ago, and I certainly never expected Sonny to bring it back... but it's been an honor. [keirei] We've been all over Nippon, from the rolling shinshu field, to the vast sea, and the sheer wintery kamui, but everything comes to a head at the ark of yamato. It really didn't take him too much longer to finish the game at all, just like the last episode of eastward this was a fairly short stream. But before we entered the ark, it was, somewhat surprisingly, time to part ways with issun... a chicken who couldn't face his own destiny, as waka so kindly informed us after once more materializing out of god knows where. Why do I feel... sad that he couldn't come with us? I know he's an actual pest with one (1) joke but I couldn't help but become somewhat fond of him by the end (funnily enough, sonny would say something similar despite always groaning at his corny, repetitive dialogue). We crossed the rainbow bridge and entered the ark to defeat the evil plaguing the land... inside we were greeted by a number of different spirits that would provide lore dumps sonny clearly did not care too much about, but there was some cool art at least. Although his reaction was pretty funny as it quickly dawned on him what kind of final dungeon he was in for. Hurrah for boss rushes! These rematches were generally cleaner than the first run-through now that he knew what he was in for... well, ninetails was at least. The spider queen actually irritated him somewhat badly as he fought with — you guessed it — the camera. He almost seemed grateful to fight orochi for the third time after that somehow, though I'm sure it was muscle memory by then. With every boss out of the way once more, we can finally meet our archnemesis who is... a ball. We also discover Waka has been attempting to fight yami to no avail, and as ammy jumps to help him out the lord of evil steals her techniques and turns her into a regular dog. There's an epic fight against the angry bakugan where we slowly regain our powers one-by-one until we take him down. During this battle however, in comedically unfortunate timing his mouse starts shitting itself again and there's a technical difficulties break as he unboxes his new spare mouse he ordered a while ago. Never change, sonny. Amaterasu has a hallucination of issun who encourages one last victory howl for the road, but this is interrupted by the not-dead Yami who bitch slaps her powers out of her AGAIN. When all hope seems lost, issun (real) comes to his senses and makes himself useful for once by creating decent art and spreading word of ammy's deeds across nippon, and the prayers of the people restore her to her true form... not just amaterasu, but shiranui! So this is the power of faith and friendship. Time to kick yami's ass for real this time (it's a fairly straightforward fight, even in the final phase), and with the world saved we get a full, unimpeded final victory howl, which ends up breaking the sound barrier. Thanks sonny! It's a mostly happy ending as the pair returns to the heavens, but it's a little sad to leave behind the friends we made along the way. Personally, I'm gonna miss waka and his french-ness, he's a weird motherfucker and a mid prophet but I guess that comes with being the last of a wiped out tribe. Oki's voice too. Though this, of course, will not be the last of sonny's incredible VA.

As always, I enjoy hearing his thoughts on games when he's finished with them, he actually spent almost an hour tearing into okami. ...Maybe "tearing into" is too harsh, but he certainly doesn't really sugarcoat things, and had a lot of gripes with the game as much as he enjoyed it. He REALLY didn't like the digging minigame huh, kek. I do appreciate his criticisms taking into account the fact it's a port and a 15+ year old game, although it is a bit funny how much he dislikes the dialogue being "game-y" and repetitive when... it is a 15+ year old kids game. I find his critique pretty reasonable and agreeable otherwise! The art direction and music really is something special. Seeing these long series conclude gives the same kind of emptiness as when you finish a good show or book, honestly. 35+ hours playtime in the end is quite a while, but it flew by to me... bittersweet to see it end (and the thumbnail artist popping up to do all this beautiful work because of what the game means to them definitely exacerbates that feeling). There's not much time to be sad though, I've been really excited for the long-awaited botw playthrough, and obviously sonny has been as well. We've got a lot of good stuff to look forward to! I have a feeling he'll check out asuka in strive next week, the MTG-ass kit is incomprehensible to me but I'm sure he'll have fun with it. Thank you for another incredible adventure sonny (wanchan), please have a good rest of your evening and I'll see you soon! o7
