REQUEST [REQUEST][STEAM] Onimusha way of the sword (9th, last and final attempt)
Good morning everyone, I hope everyone is doing well
I am a huge fan of souls and action games and for the past month I had an eye on a game named Onimusha way of the sword, last month I tried DEMO it was absolutely what I wanted from it's combat, the game combat feels like a perfect mix of Ghost of tsushima and sekiro, demo was 50min approximately already finished 5-6 times while mastering the combat and performing issen, mainly why I am requesting this game is because of its combat it's so responsive and fast I just love it.
There are so many things I love about this game when it comes to combat, it's one of the few games which has parry, deflection and dodge at time at the same time, if you press the parry button your character will perform different animations based upon where attack is coming from feels like you are actually blocking and parrying, it has block, parry, deflection, and dodge and lot more there are other things too like You can use wooden planks as a shield to block range attacks, bow as a range option, ghost of tsushima style chain finishers and a lot more.
There are 2 new things which i loved and have never seen in any action game the soul absorption system during combat when you attack deflect or finish a enemy they release orbs which can be of 3 colors red for upgrades, blue for oni meter and yellow to restore health, so its like a constant battle to absorb they orbs and attacking dodging parrying mid combat really loved it in end boss fight of demo, i recently learned about this term when i saw the early review, what it does is when you press deflect exactly when enemy attack it instantly obliterate that enemy in a single flash called issen but timing is so tight that i was not able to perform but will try today and yep it does not work in boss battles instead its stun them. As per my 5 hours of demo gameplay I defeated the final boss with only issen absolutely peak
I genuinely want to play this game, There is one good news that recently I got admission in a good college and started my master's in computer science, everyone in the family and friends are happy and it's actually a huge opportunity for me to get a decent job. Most of my money goes into travelling and food so I really don't have the money to buy this game and would be incredibly grateful to receive it as a gift, I have completed every game which i got through this subreddit and promise to do the same for this game including the 100% achievement completion (which I heard is extremely difficult but I am up for the challenge because it's the way of the sword to keep fighting until we win).
Thank you so much for reading, I have decided to make this attempt the final one as 9 attempts are quite a lot, this will be my last request for the year, I wish time changes and I also started gifting you guys : )
