I’ll also add that in the search for Princess Yuki, while usually you are the samurai guy, occasionally, you get to play as his female ninja sidekick, Kaede. …And while I can see that the Resident Evil 2 Remake has ditched that style in favour of the more modern Resident Evil style, it’s the original version which gets my blood pumping the most, I guess because it takes me back to that late ’90s era when 3D games were just starting out… and it makes me feel young again. While that sort of thing, personally, is why I never got into modern games like Dark Souls, what I do love about the style with Onimusha Warlords is that it’s accompanied by the sometimes-difficult-to-work-out-where-you-are fixed camera angles which I remember from the very early Resident Evil games… Princess Yuki has been kidnapped and you, as samurai swordsman Samanosuke, must find her whilst battling all sorts of demons along the way, generally with a hack-hack-slash method, repetitively. Onimusha Warlords resurrects the 2001 Playstation 2 hit which somehow passed me by, and while I know there’s a series of games based around this, I’ll just stick to talking about this one for this title, which follows in the fasion of remastering old titles with a new lick of paint, similar to 2017’s Crash Bandicoot N.
