You will have access to your 3 weapons in your arsenal, as well as the 10 you have in your weapon sack, from swords and spears to even guns. Once the battle has started you will fight the enemies, mostly in a 1on1 fight, moving from 1 enemy to the next. Besides fighting there is around 9 areas to explore, look for items in, fight anyone in or take on quests.ДЇighting in 4 is split into several parts, the engage where you either talk to the opponent/s, attack first or have the battle start through a cutscene. If you ever played Beat Down Fists of Vengeance then the game plays similarly to that. Whenever you are in a battle you will вЂњhonourablyвЂќ face off 1 on 1 against another samurai, with the ability to use blunt or slash strikes.

Way of the Samurai 4 takes on a more niche mechanic to fighting, though it fit the game so well in its delivery and enjoyment.

To do all the endings it can take up to 20 hours, with a full completion run of the game taking up to 100 hours. With 10 endings, as well as just doing the side content and other actions, this game really can rack up some game time. Main storyline sequences fast-forward the time of day quite quickly, starting at morning and finding yourself at night-time after just 2 events. Every time you play you will see another side of the story and learn more backstory to the characters who you met previously.ДЄ playthrough of the 3-5 days you spend in Amihama can last between 2 and 5 hours, depending on how much time you spend on the side quests for the main quests. There are parts of the story where you can influence the factions to an extent that major members will die or survive, or have you take their place or kill them yourself. The Pranja are also inhabitants of the island, but hate all the foreigners and what they stand for as they see them as outsiders who only bring bad luck and lies.Дepending on who you side with and the choices you make in the missions your Ronin can end up dead, rich, a bodyguard, an unheard of legend and more. Bakufu are the law of the land, with Kinigawa at the head and his вЂњpoliceвЂќ who maintain the streets. As you go through your day to day life you will see significant events, including Kinugawa arriving at the town to enforce the law with his Demonscale unit as well as hosting a tournament for all samurai to participate in.ДЇoreigners, Bakufu and Pranja are all factions you can assist or fight, with foreigners merely wanting to create trade and help the people of Amihama evolve their technology. The whole game is full of choices and paths for you to make, from the 3 factions to simple being a bystander who works around the town.

From here, and even beforehand, the choices are thrown at you, to either help in the battle of either side, or just fighting for the sake of fighting, or to just walk away. The talks are cut short as the local Xenophobes attack the commune with their samurai swords drawn and their cannons being rolled in. 4 sees your Ronin enter the port town of Amihama, around the year 1855, just as the British and Japanese are making contacts and negotiations.

Like many entries in this series you are a Ronin, mostly nameless to start and with their name being chosen by you on each playthrough, entering into a new city or town. A lot of focus was on the graphics, which mean nothing in games, and not really understanding the game well enough to enjoy it. Following on from what could be called a highly debated release, with scores ranging from low 5вЂ™s to high 9вЂ™s. Way of The Samurai 4 is a Samurai game developed by Acquire, mostly known for their work on the Tenchu series, which follows a Ronin who enters a town full of chaos and decisions.
