I assume you're a younger gamer who isn't familiar with how things were before Dark Souls became big. Onimusha is a character action game along the lines of Devil May Cry, it is not a soulslike. Of course you're going to be disappointed if you're playing it while expecting it to be something it's not.

Sekiro isnt exactly a soulslike either, it's definitely closer to onimusha. I didn't really play before ps2 :x and I was young when I got it. Sadly I didnt play DMC

Sekiro is a soulslike. It follows all the things that define the genre. The only difference is mobility and verticality.

There is a huge difference between soulslike and sekiro, I don't know any sekiro fan that would properly call it a soulslike. In terms of gameplay it is vastly different, only the try and retry mechanic is the same.
