I Still Loved Onimusha: Way of the Sword Without Mastering the Issen Technique

As I get older, I realize I am really really bad at timing my counters and defensive techniques. A lot of people say this game is very easy since Issen is a super clean and efficient way to destroy everything. However, as someone who couldn’t reliably get the timing down for Issen I still loved playing this game through to the end. The game gives you other tools to use to take out enemies and with parries, deflects, and dodges I fought my way to the end.
