    Very upset

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 10:03 PM PST

    I didn't get this game sooner!! Bought Thursday on steam and WOW. I love this game. Pisses me off lol but still a lot of fun. I love the feudal Japan setting. The combat is amazing, nothing is more satisfying than wearing down someone's posture and delivering a death blow. I'm 18 hours and only played 2 bosses lady butterfly and Gyoubu plus a lot of mini bosses. Lucky I've done a lot of exploring tho the prosthetics for the arm are very helpful. All and all the love the game so far really great work. Any advice starting out?

    Just got Sekiro

    I did it! I finally did it! Spanked Genichiro and just made it through Sword Saint Isshin

    I wish you could do mini boss reflection of strength

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 12:06 PM PST

    I have found the mini bosses, especially the generals, to be really good practice for the mechanics. I just beat Seven Ashina Spears with just deflects and mikiri counters and wish I could practice getting better at it.

    Connection between playing Sekiro and playing music

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 04:29 PM PST

    Used this day to take down the gauntlets. It took many hours, and as I lost myself in the grind, I thought to myself, "damn, no video game hits like Sekiro." And yet the deeper I got into it, the more I felt that I had indulged in this brutal cycle somewhere else; not in another game, but in playing music.

    Everyone plays this game for their own reasons, but I'm sure for many of us, it's not just about beating the game anymore. For us Sekiro nerds who have played this game an obscene number of times, it's about mastery. We relish the process: from barely eking out the win to experimenting for the fastest and most brutal beat down. When we've fought a boss enough to perfectly parry entire strings and force it into a corner—there's no rush like it. But this game's difficulty is hailed for a reason: a single mistake, and suddenly we're mashing to resurrect. Desperation mounts as the enemy recovers its posture, and we rush back into it in a frenzy—often ending the run we were dominating just a few seconds ago.

    Indeed, no other game torments and rewards me like Sekiro does, but I find some semblance of it in playing music. Unless you're a professional, the first attempt at sight-reading a song is pitiful; you're lucky if you get to the end before frustration makes you quit in a rage. But for those of us in the know, we've been here too many times to ignore the promise of dedication. We pick our instruments back up and do it again. Muscle memory develops, allowing us to forgo the sheet music bit by bit. Eventually, we think less about individual notes and more about subtle aspects: where to take breaths for the most seamless sound; tweaking chords to fine tune the emotion of a song; recognizing the riffs of other members as cues for your own part—the list goes on indefinitely. Still, carelessness lies around every corner, and basic mistakes are made even well into the journey to mastery. So we re-visit and re-practice the foundations that we took for granted, often discovering new ways to play the song. Rigorous fidelity gives way to creative ownership, much like how everyone has their own way of taking down a Sekiro boss.

    The peculiar mix of demanding perfection yet accepting failure that produces tireless perseverance: that is the connection between playing Sekiro and playing music.

    Any shinobi musicians out there that resonate with this?

    Started 2021 by completing my first playthrough

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 09:03 PM PST

    Got the game in May 2019, played about halfway through, had to put it aside so I could be a new dad, picked it up again at the end of this past October.

    After little over a week, I finally beat the Sword Saint tonight, and I didn't even use one resurrection (didn't realize this until my wife pointed it out). Purification ending for the record.

    Looking forward to trying out NG+, but more happy I can say I finally beat the game and can now move on to games I got for Christmas.

    Got some good support from this community as well, so cheers to you all.

    Games similar to Sekiro?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 08:51 PM PST

    I'm probably about halfway through my first run of this game and I'm loving it, and I'm already wondering what I should be playing after this. So, I'm here for some advice. Things I love about Sekiro:

    • The combat, specifically boss fights.
    • The movement. This ties in with the combat, but it all feels so fluid.
    • No inventory management.
    • No character creation.

    Things that I don't feel super strongly about either way:

    • The story/setting.
    • Multiple endings.

    I tried playing dark souls 2 some time ago, but I couldn't really get into it back then. Maybe I'll give that another shot, but I feel like the combat in that game didn't feel nearly as fluid. (Though I did play it only for an hour or so.) Also, I'm on pc, don't have any consoles.

    Killed Snake Eyes in a funny way

    Posted: 02 Jan 2021 12:25 AM PST

    I just beat NG+3 in one day

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 08:31 PM PST

    A year ago I bought Sekiro and rage quit twice because I couldn't figure out the combat system. After coming back to the game in October and putting time into learning the systems it has probably become my favorite game in the past few years.

    I beat Isshin for the purification ending yesterday morning and then this morning I decided to go for the Return ending in a single day. Seriously, it's so much fun to play and I hope others are getting to enjoy it as much as I am.

    Not Really Having Fun Here...

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 06:06 PM PST

    Experienced Souls player here who decided to bite the bullet and try this game out. DS1 remains one of my favorite video game experiences ever, and I enjoyed Bloodborne immensely. But damn ... I am not having a great time with this one. I know, "git gud" comments incoming, but part of the reward of playing other FromSoft games is observing enemy patterns and figuring things out through trial and error. They're hard, but not mercilessly unforgiving.

    In Sekiro, I feel like I die before being able to figure out what I'm even doing wrong. It's just a little frustrating to have to wade through a ton of basic enemies just to get to that one who's giving me lots of trouble, only to get insta-killed by said enemy in two seconds flat. It's ... really rough.

    I love the more "story-driven" approach to the game so far, I just wish I could enjoy it more. Guess I just suck?

    People screen share on Sekiro?

    Posted: 01 Jan 2021 12:58 PM PST

    I'm new to sekiro but I've played and beat, DS1,DS2, DS3 and Bloodborne. I just beat lady butterfly and she wasn't too bad tbh, I'm expecting worse further in the game.

    But I started to look at the unofficial FromSoftware PS4 community and there was someone asking for help on practically all the bosses in Sekiro through screen sharing, literally begging for some of the fights.

    I'm not sure if this community agrees or disagrees with this but personally I don't think they should have even bought Sekiro if they were just going to let someone else fight the bosses for them. Personally I wouldn't play any game like that because it wouldn't even be satisfying.

    I'm down for people buying and playing any FromSoftware game, I genuinely recommend them to anyone if they're into challenging games but I don't like the fact that there's some people getting other people to basically play the game for them.

    I get that you can summon in Dark souls and Bloodborne but Sekiro is meant to be a solo experience. I understand there are people who go in blind and those who look at guides but at least they're doing it themselves rather than begging others to do it for them.

    There are ways to cheese literally any boss in Sekiro from what I understand so why not just resort to that? I've never resorted to cheesing but I'm not against it.

    Just wanted a quick rant, hopefully I didn't trigger anybody.
