Pros
- Parent context: I loved Okami when I played it for the first time on PS4, but I do have to admit that its overall an average 3D Zelda clone carried HARD by its amazing visual aesthetic, setting, and main character design. I also remember...
- I was never much of a completionist type (though I did 100% Okami recently for nostalgia)
- It was magical. It felt like cheating in the best way possible.
- Obviously, this game looks incredible. I compared this game to other games that released in 2007 like ac1, mass effect, prime cod, and immediately noticed the same shades of brown & grey, a far cry from this game where even though the ha...
- I did really enjoy this game though, even though its really rough around the edges (fat) and i know that i enjoyed it because looking back on it, i know i wont remember all the fat of the game, because the little moments in this game lik...
Cons
- Okami. Love Zelda. Its always described as better Zelda. But its just so slow and boring. Dropped after the first hydra boss i forgot the name of.

Parent context: I loved Okami when I played it for the first time on PS4, but I do have to admit that its overall an average 3D Zelda clone carried HARD by its amazing visual aesthetic, setting, and main character design. I also remember liking the brush/painting mechanics, and I wish I played the game on Switch instead because of them. Reply: To be fair, if someone offered me a "good zelda game" in mechanics and added amazing setting, good story, good aesthetics and character design, I would have guessed that this is probably one of the greatest games ever. Which Okami kinda is. Also, I would also add the brush mechanic, I really enjoy it a lot, especially compared to going into menus (or something) and/or constantly changing items.

I wanna split this review up into 3 sections: the shit i love, the shit i'm iffy about, and the shit i dont like. ... The combat... progresses? ... My thing is.. you gotta enter "combat mode". Then u gotta fight in a 5x5 area. Then u gotta pause the game and select an item if you want to use it. Then, finally, you can fight. Then u gotta see the results screen... then wait for the 5x5 area to disappear and then you can resume play. That... is very tedious.
Obviously, this game looks incredible. I compared this game to other games that released in 2007 like ac1, mass effect, prime cod, and immediately noticed the same shades of brown & grey, a far cry from this game where even though the hardware was limited, literally no two levels will look the same. I especially love when the game shows off its colors with the guardian sapling sections, and the hand drawn paintings in the cutscenes & boss fights are incredible too. The music is also phenomenal!
