Okami is a beautiful game with a classic story and excellent gameplay. It feels just great to roam around as a wolf, fight demons and help the people free the land from the demonic influences. You play as the sun goddess Ameratasu in the form of the white wolf Shiranui and you wield the godly brush with which you can influence the environment: you can make plants bloom, put the sun in the sky, repair broken stuff and so on.
The game looks absolutely gorgeous. I think never saw I used the cel shading technique used in a better way. There are so many details in this too. But it is not just the cell-shaded art-style. It is the way nature is restored through your actions. It is how the humans fit in so well with the nature. Even details like running let's plants grow in your path feel right.

Gameplay is somewhat close to the Zelda formula, although you obviously doesn't wield a sword. But you have to solve quests, fight enemies and find secret stuff to overall free the land and bring nature back. This includes some interesting boss fights. Besides that you explore the lands. Movement is so fluid, alone running and jumping around is quite fun. I absolutely loved the wolf-form in Twilight Princess, but Okami made it even better. The classical Zelda-items are replaced by the divine brush, which works great as well.
Sadly the title released at the end of the PS2 lifetime did not great and Capcom closed down Clover Studios after this title. Still, the game developed a cult following and always did great with the reviewers, so over time Capcom rereleased the title again and again. So now you can play it basically everywhere - and you totally should.

| UnderwaterFunktown said: Still four amazing games remaining. Let's see if the third hint can't give some of them away: 5) A stealthy character that you don't play as in any of the three main campaigns offers major guidance in all three 4) The protagonist of this game would hate #3 (Portal 2) 2) Contains countless references to other media, particularly Lord of the Rings and Monty Python and the Holy Grail. 1) "Don't overdo it" |
4: The Witcher 3 I think. The second hint is about Monster Hunter World right?
1: Tales of Symphonia?
Well, it is time for the TOP 3 I guess, but still some other games need guessing:
#8: The remake of the first game with the engine of the fourth and an added story mode.
This game let's build you a party consisting of different classes to tackle the labyrinth.
The original game was on the DS, the remake on the 3DS and both utilize the touchscreen and stylus.
#7: As you complete the quests for the people, the tavern gets more and more empty, as these task was often the last thing that kept these people in Duhan.
The game is in a classic RPG series that started in the west, but this game and others are japanese entries.
This party based RPG allows for special moves involving multiple party members called Allied Actions.
#6: Once you completed the story and therefore no finished task triggers it automatically, you can ask for the high five.
The story has three main chapters on their separate islands, but the stuff happening between the chapters is often even more interesting.
You main goal is building stuff that people ask you for.
#5: Guessed by S.Peelman: Tokyo Mirage Session ♯FE
#4: Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown: Heroes of Might and Magic III
#3: Magandang tanghali po!
#2: Use the Oraclos chain.
#1: Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown: Elden Ring
This goddess has one big messed up family.
ranking in the guessing game, list so far

Seems I was just in time for these hints. Regarding number 1...

Okay final two games. Of those I still need to post, #4 and #3 have already been guessed. #7, Anno 1602, sadly wasn't guessed, you guys need to play more city builder sims. 
4 - This game was originally developed with different art direction, and elements of this style can still be seen in the game's intro cutscene.
Hint 2: The change of style, done to move it away from the look of a certain other game, fuelled the rumour that the producer (who's the original creator of both series) didn't like this other game. I doubt that's true. Guessed by drbunnig - Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island
3 - Legend goes that a controller was tailor-made for this game. Guessed by Veknoid_Outcast - Super Mario 64
2 - The antagonist has a cool voice, because he has no jaw. Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown - Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic
1 - Do I need to give a hint for this? Guessed by UnderwaterFunktown - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Can there be any other #1? Yes, you are indeed correct.
S.Peelman said:
Majora’s Mask? I feel like I can only ever guess Zelda games lol. |
Incorrect, although you're on the right path
UnderwaterFunktown said:
9) Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2? 7) Maybe a Mario game... Super Mario World? 3) Super Mario Bros. 3? |
All three are correct - good going!
