Good to know, I won't bother.
As a fan of the series I'd say the game is a disappointment for the following reasons:
-They botched the voice acting, especially Jean Reno, and what's worse they tease you with his actual voice for 5 minutes in the beginning.
-Lock-on systems should keep the target and the player in view.
-Make up your mind, analog or digital.
-Nearly essential hidden items + Overly linear storyline (story moves forward after opening a regular chest?) with no backtracking = irritation.
-Feels unbalanced overall. Difficulty, weapon upgrading, story progression... something is off, feels too fast and contrived.
-I killed a boss, give me orbs before the cutscene, I earned those orbs!
But one good thing about it is the bind attack, finally a little assistance from magic without having to use 1/3 of the bar.
I hope Onimusha 4 handles things better, as it seems they're pumping up the action a lot.
