* ActionCommands: The game took a critical drubbing because of its over-reliance of Quick Time Events to do ''anything''; jumping out of windows, killing bosses, ''walking down a hallway,'' etc.
** It also has [[AntiFrustrationFeature Anti-Frustration Features]] specifically for the [=QTEs=]. First, the player can adjust the difficulty of them independently of the combat difficulty. Secondly, the longer [=QTEs=] have sequences inside them, so if you fail a command, you just go back to the beginning of the current sequence.
* BadassNormal: [[spoiler: Michael Wilson, Senior]]

* KatanasAreJustBetter: The Ninja Blade, obviously.



* MythologyGag: One of the secret weapons you can unlock after finding all 8 Shinobi Moji is [[spoiler:The Moonlight Sword, which has appeared in nearly ''every'' single From Software game since its debut in ''King's Field'' (including the ''Armored Core'' games, where it was a laser blade instead of a normal sword.)]]
