![]() This one supports Japanese voice with English subtitles which adds an awesome authenticity to the game (like watching a samurai movie). This is a must-have for fans of the series and samurai fans in general, and/or if you really enjoy games that you can play again to see different outcomes. However I will not change my rating as I already played more than 20 hrs on it with great joy. If you like Samurai culture and want to feel like on for a while, this is a highly recommended game.Įdit: Although I still love this game, it quickly became stale after 10 or 15 endings, and I don't think I have the interest left to finish all. Also as you progress through every game ending by saving, you will continue developing your character and you will carry on the items and weapons to the next game. With 25 different endings, the game presents an excellent replay value. There is a time and day/night cycle, and it effects the story as well. The walking around and fighting is done in 3rd person style in real time. You talk to peop le, trade, steal, hire, fight or upgrade weapons and skills. The map of Amana has 8 different locales through out the map, filled with dozens of persistent (until you or some else kills them) characters. The game follows a samurai in the land of Amana in Feudal Japan. And the by outcome I am referring the 25 different endings you can reach by each play. Even in game small talk can and will change the outcome. Although you will learn different button combination for fighting, you will always need to think. I have played the first Way of the Samurai on PS2 at the beginning of the millennium, and loved the series and its developer Acquire ever since. ![]() I have been waiting this excellent but mostly overlooked game for a year after its first release in Japanese market. As were the first two games in the Way of the Samurai series, the third adventure is presented with unflinching depictions of violent combat, and without any sentimental game world advantages toward one moral decision over another. A weapon customization system is built into the adventure, as players can collect hundreds of different parts hidden throughout the game world and use them to assemble specialized armaments. As the story develops, the player's character can gradually make a name for himself as a noble protector, a fearsome bandit, or a mysterious, aloof wanderer. Strong elements of story-based role-playing, including robust dialog trees, complex diplomatic option, and reputation rewards, also emphasize the player's influence over the way the warrior's tale plays out. Battle is central to the play of the game, with a variety of fighting styles and combo maneuvers for close combat, often against multiple enemies at once. As in the original, the player takes the role of a hugely influential character in a larger story, whose personal choices and actions, and even inactions, can steer the plot toward any of more than 15 different possible endings. Following the path of the first two games in the series, Way of the Samurai 3 is an action-oriented adventure of mortal combat and moral choices.
