It did get a sequel 16 years ago on the DS called Okamiden which is 10/10. But they did announce a third game a while back even though Capcom has been quiet ever since.
Is Okamiden a sequel? I always thought it was a spinoff or a comedy with baby Amy and never bothered checking it (I also never had a DS so there's that).
Yes it's probably the most direct sequel they could've ever done since it takes place a couple of years after the main game and you play as Amy's kid and most of the supporting cast of Okami had kids as well so you mostly interact with them.
The set-up to that fight where you finish Ninetails' constellation is such a cool bait-and-switch. Honestly, while the rest of the game is solid, it's the entire Ryoshima Coast section that stands out the most in my memory.
Four sequences though I never really felt like the time travel one was an ending. Orochi, Kitsune, and Yami all felt like they were developing to a climax. However the time travel sequence was effectively as long as the others.
I started replaying this recently and this also was the first thing to come to mind. Its a surprisingly long adventure game, especially if you're doing a lot of the side quests and looking for collectables.
And on a side note, its such a pretty game. It still looks better than most games coming out these days, but that's a personal opinion.
Yes and no. If you catch on that you are still missing like, half of the celestial brush techniques, and there's a very obvious area you haven't accessed, its not thaaaat surprising.
Bruh, I bought the PS4 remaster of Okami a couple years ago. I couldn't believe the game wasn't over at hour 50, and ended up shelving it 😭. I still plan on finally completing it one day
if youre at hour 50 you have around 10 to 20 depending on your exploration hours (or rather how lost are you lol) thats the main reason I hadnt come back to it yet, especially with my current gaming plans halted.
Blew my mind as a kid. Like there’s nearly a full game before the Orochi fight (remember older games tended to be a lot shorter; plenty of great games you could beat in 10-20 hours). So when you beat him… and the game just keeps going… and going… and then takes a side route… and then back to going… and another side route… and then going some more… and then goes back in time… and then finally gets to the end, man it was an all-time formative video game experience. I swear Okami, Kingdom Hearts 2, Tenkaichi 3, Ace Combat 4/5/0, and Peter Jackson’s King Kong were the games I played all the damn time on my PS2.
LMAO HECK YEAH. I've been itching for years to just lock in and finish the whole game, its wild you start with a sliver of japan, and then it just opens up the entire map.

Okami comes to mind. You spend hours gathering your powers and confront Orochi, only to find out you’re at the end of the prologue.
