I'm enjoying this game to no end. There's a point where this game stands out from others when



I'm a little over 4 hours into the game, and I'm barely getting to Agata Forest. I can tell this game is going to be deep to almost no end. I suggest people pick this up as soon as possible.

I'm also thoroughly enjoying the game.

Me six, seven!

This game is beautiful. I'm personally not into the whole cel shaded thing, and never was, however I still find the gameplay very enjoyable. I'm 1 hour 15 minutes into the game.

A few questions (I haven't bothered going through the instruction book yet, yes I'm a dummy)



Furthermore, whenever Issun orders me to draw something, I usually try to do it in the most whackiest way.

If I remember seeing in a vid correctly:

Hope that helped a bit.

I already possess most of the brush styles, i hope i don't finish this game TOO fast :(. love the voices btw:p

how long does it take to posses all the brushes, so far I've only played 1 hour and got the frist 2 brushes. Wouldn't possesing all the brushes pretty much put you half way through the game.
I honestly wish they spoke clearly instead of the gibberish way they do. I didn't mind it for shadow of the colossus but the okami voices are a bit annoying ^^;

The "gibberish" actually worked for SOTC since Wanda and the Gods seemed to speak a very archaic sounding "forgotten" language, and the sounds weren't repeated over and over again, making it sound more realistic. Yes, the gibberish for Okami gets somewhat annoying, more so than the King of All Cosmos' rappin' track skills speak.

As for the length of gameplay,

I've heard 30, myself. I don't think game length is a spoiler though Spat.

What makes me sad is that this thread is only 110 posts long, and some of the...umm...questionable RPG forum threads DWARF this. :(

Bloody fantastic game so far though. I'm just not far enough to comment on anything specific quite yet.

The same thing happened in Japan though. This game came out and it didn't sell very well, from what I heard. It was overshadowed by FF12. :(

the game would be really lengthy if it is more than 30 hours. Most action games nowadays really only take less than 20 hours unless its gta.
Its good to know that its made to last.

Gamespot said it was around 30 hours long. Knowing them they probably just blew through the game just to get an idea of how long it took to complete. I've been in the game 6 hours and I've unlocked 6 brushes I believe

The "language" instantly reminded me of the Klonoa series for their use of a unique language.

The language reminds me of Animal Crossing speak even though it's not just the words sped up. It sort of annoys me since the sounds are repetitive, but I think I can vaguely grasp the effect they were going for with it. I wouldn't have been disappointed with voice acting though.

Okami is truely as beautiful as I initially thought and I am very pleased with the amount of brush freedom. I don't quite see the urgent need to up your ink bottle capacity yet though.

I'm now excited at what possible kind of secret twist the end of the game could throw at you, as stated in the manual?

I have 6 ink bottles right now. When it comes to attacking enemies' weak points later in the game, you'll need them. I've actually lost my Divine Instrument a few times from running out of ink.

I'm still at the first town, LOL. ::haven't been playing much::

Tip: Do LOTS of fishing. If you catch 2 Huchen (which take 3 slashes to capture one) You can make 15000 Yen easy--run back to Shinshu Field and get new moves. Buy the Rosary Bead Storm, you can reach lvl 3 Godhood with ease using those.

i only have three hours and just got the thrid brush, I guess I'm taking my time too ^^;
I love it when I restore a place's beauty, it feels so freakin magical like lucky charms on acid
And when do I get to fish o_0

I was bored

how u wrote that so well with the analog is beyond me.
And I also think you just started a good game:sonyPS2:

Check out my journal. :tpg:

Yes, the game rocks. I actually found myself craving it at work today - I just needed to see that awesome art style, hear that music, play the damn game! Easily one of the best purchases I've made recently, I'm getting the guide just to get the character art - it's amazing.

awsome okami art spatula ^_^
How awsome would it be if they actually came to life in the game, I mean that wolf basicly brings life to everything he steps on.

This reminds me of Mononoke Hime and the Deer God. BRINGER OF LIFE AND DEATH.

I'm up to the Hana Valley, or whatever it's called now. Dangerous Business.

Wait till you get to

Love Waka, he reminds me of Yondaime :p (Naruto), Cape looks the same and blond hair XD (plus his coolness)
