The game's "Issen" critical counter action mechanic and satisfying swordplay action became defining pillars of the series.

With people and events inspired by real-life history cast into its eerie dark fantasy setting, the trials and fates of the characters painted a unique and engrossing tale that drew widespread acclaim.
