The only complaints I have are that the game feels too short, and also that the sequels played with this design like two monkeys flinging shit at each other. So the game plays out pretty much like a Resident Evil game with a little faster pace. And also, I’m pretty sure he didn’t make a pact with demons after they resurrected him and drink the blood of a Saito princess from her own skull.
#Onimusha ps4 panda costume series#
The real Nobunaga is respected as one of the great unifiers of Japan, while the Nobunaga of the Onimusha series is basically the child born after Hannibal Lecter raped Satan at Auschwitz. Of course, saying that Onimusha is based on historical events is on par with saying that William the Conqueror won the battle of Hastings with a contingent of trolls and a magical amulet provided by Doc Brown and his Delorean. He was, as we find out in the third game, finally defeated at Honno-ji, by Mitsuhide Akechi (uncle of the fictional protagonist, Samanosuke Akechi), possibly over a contention with another of Nobunaga’s retainers, Mori Ranmaru. Oda Nobunaga really did fight the battle at the beginning of the game, and then laid siege to the Saito clan’s Inabayama castle. One of the more interesting aspects of the game is that it was based on actual historical figures and locations. I am Fortinbras! Japanese demon king who has a penchant for naming my underlings after characters from Hamlet for some reason!
