Is this like Zelda?
I've been hearing alot of comparisons to Zelda, is this true? And if so, in what ways is it similar?

HP, MP (sort of). Heart containers. Dungeons, dungeon items (sort of). It's hard to NOT see it as a Zelda like game. Only difference is you're a wolf goddess and battles are RPG action style.

There are dungeons with a boss fight at the end of each. It's like Zelda in that way. Otherwise it's not at all like it.

Except for all similar things I just mentionned... Obviously, it's not a straight copy paste but the similarities are so obvious someone would need to be literally blind to not see it. The music itself is thankfully unique to Okami and so is the graphic style chosen so there is that going for it...

I don't know, I played a bit of Twilight Princess and that one kinda reminds me of Okami with the "cleansing areas of evil". But so far TP appears to be more focused on dungeons while Okami has great overworld.

It's *very* like Zelda, specifically the classic 3D Zeldas--Ocarina to Twilight. It's easier to list what's different than Zelda than what's similar, because they are very similar in almost every respect. The chief differences are:

<> Okami has more RPG-elements (more character upgrades, more weapons, more combat skills)

<> Okami has a greater emphasis on storytelling.

<> Okami is based on real-world Japanese mythology and folklore, rather than pure fantasy.

And... that's pretty much it.

Indeed it is.

Instead of being grumpy, maybe celebrate that PC finally got a Zelda-quality game?

And no, The Witcher 3 does not (quite) count and Fable was pretty average.

And emulators are very unofficial, grey-area stuff (not having anything against them, just saying how it is - except if we're talking DOSBox which is a de-facto PC emulator to play old PC games on).

Okami has platforming, a lot more text to read, more complex combat (but not necessarily more deep or engaging), you have to paint on the screen to solve puzzles and there's like 5 times more ♥♥♥♥ to collect than your average Zelda game. Otherwise they're more or less the same, unless I'm forgetting something.

This guy is on a crusade to keep bashing the game when it's 99% obvious he won't ever play it. So there's that.
