TNS: Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny 2 is an excellent remaster with many QoL features and new additions, but it still carries that old-school jank.
Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny is a faithful but flawed remaster that polishes a PS2 cult classic without fixing its dated design.

Sounds like the reviewer was expecting a more modern game, and disliked the game for what it wasn't instead of what it was. Not a great way to review things tbh.
All I can say is I’m f*cking stoked for this, it’s my fave in the series, and I’m blowing my Memorial Day Weekend on getting the platinum. I highly encourage anyone interested to really give this a chance. It’s an excellent game and look up other reviews if you’re on the fence after seeing this review.
OK let me say this
Any gamer who didn't play this game believe me you should play it now
Onimusha 1 , 2 , 3 these games must play by any gamer
The reviewer was basically complaining that nothing had changed gameplay wise, whining about how he’s never been a fan of fixed camera angles, and comparing the combat system to modern action games.
He completely missed the point, the remaster was never meant to be changed in any way.
Onimusha 2: Samurai's Destiny has the visual aesthetics of the early Resident Evil games, but puts them in a medieval Japanese setting.
I loved this series. Looking forward to this.
