Onimusha: Way of the Sword proves the parry formula is far from stale, you just need to get freaky with it
Onimusha: Way of the Sword is praised for its innovative approach to the parry mechanic, offering multiple layers of defensive options that keep combat engaging. While some games may overuse parries, Onimusha demonstrates the mechanic's potential for depth and player expression, contrasting with Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Nine Sols.
