Why has reception to Sekiro been overwhelmingly negative on Yea Forums, when the game is going to be absolute kino?

Finally, someone who can call out the true problem on this board. Me and my fellow shills are getting goddamn tired of all of these anti-shillposters running rampant on Yea Forums. I'm just trying to do a fucking job here, and these faggots come in like they deserve to get actual legitimate opinions on games from people who aren't even paid to give them. Fuck off with that shit, losers, and let us shill in peace.

The fact that Yea Forums is shitting on it means it's guaranteed to be kino

A fast food analogy to boot

Yup I pre-ordered because of all the seething here. It has never let me down.

Yea Forums is full of casual shitters who are mad they can't summon an army to carry them through every boss fight anymore.

>we want the Assassin's Creed audience

Personally I'm glad to see something new
I'm tired of people being scared to try new franchise, seems like most AAA devs nowadays are only making sequels to stay safe

you can see the snake clipping through the building, do they not have playtesters for this shit?

It's funny too because Yea Forums have nothing but hatred for Dark Souls 2 and 3, but get mad as soon as From want to stop remaking Demon's Souls for the umpteenth time.

Reminder that companies pay 3rd party companies to wage war on the internet so anything you read about games on Yea Forums, both positive and negative, may not be genuine.
Ignore games until they launch. Day 1 only matters to companies.

Just like Anthem!

Because Activision's name is attached to it. All interest in this was gone for me when I saw the Activision logo.

On topic, it’s because Yea Forums is always wrong.

movie game

Push back against the rampant From shills and dick riders.
Anytime Nioh, Tsushima, or anything else related to samurai is mentioned a bunch of retards show up to screech about Sekiro and it pisses people off

They're literally only publishing it.

Because this board is trash and full of shitposters and contrarian faggots that just want to pretend they're more 'interesting' by hating on popular things. This is just how the board is now and how's it's been for quite some time.

Name the last time a good game came out and there was minimal shitposting about it.

>implying I was being ironic
They went to Activision to get the big publisher bonus for marketing at the bare minimum, and they have marketed this game less than anything in recent memory next to Left Alive.

>Name the last time a good game came out and there was minimal shitposting about it.
Tropical Freeze, thanks to no one owning a WiiU.

I'm a bloodborne fag and I'm completely fine with how Sekiro seems to be turning out. My only issue is the $79.99 CAD price.

I think most soulsfags are in the same boat as me. They realize that this isn't a souls game, and most are intrigued by what direction FROM can take this new game in. But, Yea Forums being Yea Forums, there's a small vocal minority of shitposters who will bash this game to hell and back. You don't hear about the vocal majority. To put it simply, Yea Forums as an imageboard encourages people to shit on things as much as possible, because threads where people disagree get many more replies than threads where people agree about a game. This even applies to posts. People who read a post they agree with will just move on to the next post when they're done. But make a post that polarizes people and you're swimming in (you)s. This is why Yea Forums should not be taken seriously. Just as how people on reddit are incentivised to make posts that fit the cultural narrative to get upvotes, people on Yea Forums are incentivised to make provocative posts to get (you)s.

As a note, have you ever noticed what happens when person A shits on person B's favourite game, and then if person B says "Oh yeah, what's a good game then?" it just turns into a meaningless shitfest? This is basically what this board is all about. Over time you realize that it's not even worthwhile to reply to people shitting on a game you like.

No one has any idea what the game itself will be like since Activision marketed like a Souls game and they're comfortable using the Souls brand as bait to lure in normies while every other faggot is going 'BUT IT'S NOT A SOULS GAME BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE TENCHU' despite it having obvious Souls mechanics in it. On top of that things like no multiplayer and other things are divisive at best especially with how angry Yea Forums normally is at things.

And i'm literally not buying it.

They are marketing the living shir out of it now though

And? They still stick onto the product their shitty reputation. From the informed consumer perspective it only brings negative things.

True as fuck

You're welcome to go back

>Activision marketed like a Souls game
Wrong, it's been abundantly clear that it's not a Souls game from day one.
>despite it having obvious Souls mechanics in it.
Wrong.

Agreed, people are just tired of the KINO KINO KINO Sekiro shills everywhere

Awww this kiddie thinks he's not a newfag how cute!

>>Wrong, it's been abundantly clear that it's not a Souls game from day one.
They have blatantly marketed it as such which is my point, to the point of having Souls e-celebs flown in to play it and shill it to the max using buzzword ridden statements like 'IT'S TOTALLY HARDER THAN DARK SOULS.' To claim otherwise is disingenuous at best.

>he even types like a redditor
Try and be less transparent

literally just because its not dark souls.

Demon’s Souls does need to come to PC. RIP, servers.

fat

It will literally be a kino art master piece, too bad your favorite samurai games are garbage :)

This place thinks hating everything makes it look like they have taste.

Looks fun man. What do you mean by cheesing, though?

If you are worried the game is easy all the footage I’ve seen so far is people getting fucking stomped; even tubers who make a their living off Dark Souls videos.

I like that it looks like the kind of gap that Dark Souls has from Bloodbourne. Where it’s got the same basic engine and animations underneath that make it familiar, but it’s got it’s own mechanics. I’m excited, but funnily this being a PvE only game is sort of dimishing it even though I fuckin’ hate the PvP of souls in general. Like if the end of your quest isn’t unlocking the best shit to surprise other players with then why even.

>generic action stealth game
>PREPARE TO DIE XD marketing again
Truly.

How? Give us some examples of how they marketed it as a Souls game. They flew out the Fromdrones that showcase their other games. It probably is harder right now simply because it is so different. One of the drones said they have a decade of dodge/roll programmed into their head, so it will be hard at first to stand in and block. If you look at their gameplay, that's exactly how most of them were playing and they were bad.

Maybe because.....its not a souls game? it was never designed to be a souls game? but because its From Soft everyone just assumes its the next in the souls franchise.

>I like that it looks like the kind of gap that Dark Souls has from Bloodbourne.
Bloodborne was undeniably a Souls game, though, this isn't. There's a huge emphasis on movement and a stealth component.

unironically based

I guess it's also a DMC game. I guess it's also a Tales of Vesperia game. I guess it's also a Resident Evil 2 remake game. I guess it's also a Metro Exodus game. It must also be a Far Cry New Dawn game. Certainly they have marketed it as a Anthem spiritual successor. Civilization VI too. See how fucking dumb you are, or should I keep going?

Your argument is that because other youtubers who have been associated with DaS in the past have been flown out to play a demo, other people will see that and say oh this must be a souls game. Yet, those people would presumably watch the gameplay of Sekiro, and immediately be able to see that this is not in fact a Souls game. Your argument is dumb is what I'm saying.

The gameplay that looks almost exactly like a From action RPG but with some minor stealth elements and minor tweaks like the grappling hook?

Why? Because there are swords and enemies? Because there is a hub with NPCs? Because there is a healing item and checkpoints? You're fucking stupid.

Jealousy of some kind, probably just falseflagging Nincels coping about their Shitch.

I've always wondered why that guy keeps making Souls videos when he's one of the main proposers of the idea of Soulsborne having shit gameplay and being worth playing only for the lore.

because Soulsfags hate that a Souls game has no form of PvP

>deliberately obfuscating the point
For fucks sakes user I'm giving my take on how Activision is doing things which is giving false impressions to some people like seen in many other Sekiro threads already, I'm not shitting on the game itself.

There is actually just as big an emphasis on boss battles and straight up combat too. Take a look at the footage of monsters and massive soliders. And there is a flame vent weapon the bloke can use that looks just like one of the pyromancies - cool.

Sure though, I agree the gap here is bigger. Not as big as people make out though.

>he's one of the main proposers of the idea of Soulsborne having shit gameplay
He has never said nor implied that, in fact he says the opposite in that video. He says the combat system doesn't have enough depth to it to justify it being the sole focus of the series and he's right.

What will you do when Sekiro ends up being even worse than Dark Souls 3?

Refer to

But it looks better than what they made before. Explain yourself

Jesus retard christ...you're a retard.

My main concern is that the game won't know what it's trying to be. I don't know if it has the complexity required to be enjoyable as an action game, but also the lack of true RPG elements means it wont have one of the big advantages that soulsborne did either.

>But it looks better than what they made before. Explain yourself
From your personal seat in your mind's eye it looks better to you, but to many people they're seeking what the Souls games gave them from the people who made them. Maybe mechanically it is better, but what if to people other than you they value the mechanics of the Souls games they've had before. One is not more right than the other but for many people it doesn't scratch the same itch.

When judging things I don't agree. It's why I hate number scales: if one game is a 6/10 and the other a 2/10 does it really matter if one was "objectively" better than the other if you ended up not liking either in the end?

Do Americans really think like this?

i understand what you're saying but the distinction is still important. if you make a 2/10 game you should probably burn the concept. but if you make a 6/10 game then maybe you should figure out how to improve it so you can make a 8/10 next time. substitute the numbers with 'bad' and 'mediocre' if you wish but its the same meaning.

I hope I get the gay ending

you can get the gay ending by killing yourself immediately

in real life (:

Seems like an easy list compared to the souls games. No “reach new game++” after maxing out every covenant; although four seperate endings might be hard.

Because enjoying something is a sign of weakness here.

>although four seperate endings might be hard.
i wonder how you get them, is it tied to how many times you died or the NotWorld Tendency?

*sigh* looks like I’ll be looking at the wiki with one eye while I play just in case I ruin some NPC questline. Actually I don’t think I’ve ever been in at the ground-floor so early before. Someone always trailblazed the questlines and wrote them up ahead of me.

just playthrough it blind the first time and pay attention to anything you mess up or could've done differently. then try it in ng+. you dont need a guide for souls generally. it never gets point-and-click adventure game levels of nonsensical.

Simply an idiot

Based, unironically good mechanic

No because dark souls is on the list

Dark Souls is a complex, multifaceted game with interesting lore. Sekiro is a linear third person action game with katanas and other stupid weeb shit.

hi burger fatty fat

>Dark Souls isn't overrated
You serious? I love DS but it's overrated as fuck. Same as the difficulty curve being overestimated.

The schaudenfraude will be glorious. Those cucks are going to be so assblasted. It’s what happens when you grow up on games that don’t encourage reflexes, and the player has to rely on things like stats and basic strategies like tanking. It’s really a shame to see the gameplay get shit on because their crutches are taken away. It’s already shaping up to have better combat than Bloodborne, the most superior combat in any Souls game. And that dark feudal Japan aesthetic under From’s direction.... Nioh was too animu. GOTY for me.

Fucking this. People are always looking for ways to invalidate your opinion. One common way of doing so is through what you mentioned.

>Person 1: I love Thing A. I think it's the best [game/book/movie/album/etc.] of the year.
>Person 2: You love Thing A and think it's the best of the year? But you also love Thing C and Thing E, which means your opinion on Thing A is 100% automatically invalidated no matter how well your reasoning is for Thing A.

>People actually think this
Kys, games not even out and your already proven wrong about everything except the katana.

This is going to be the first Miyazaki game to fail. People are buying it expecting another Souls game but what they'll get is an action game with a weird, unproven, combat system. The success of this game rests entirely on people liking the combat system enough to stick with it for dozens of hours.
It's a bold gamble for From Software, I admire the bravado. But it will likely end poorly.

How can a single player game fail? The purchase was already made

>Yea Forums is one person
I couldn't care less if it's like Souls or not. It doesn't look good. A new Armored Core would be nice though.

Seeing the snake get stabbed is the only thing I wish I didn't get spoiled on.

It's not a Souls game, it has different features, and overall it has way more features than Souls games did. It also has much better combat.

>all this samefagging
That's nothing like AC. In Ass Creed when you do a "stealth takedown" it kills the enemy. In Sekiro, it is merely a stealth attack that deals a certain amount of damage, there are no guaranteed kills. Anything above the lowest tier enemies will tank the hit and then alert everyone else to also fight you. This has been shown many times in gameplay footage already.

>It runs perfectly under emulation
No it doesn't. You are a very rare case if it does for you, but for 99% of people it does not function on an emulator. Almost everyone gets crazy fps issues, audio stuttering and flickering textures.

Seething DMCucks

Well, is it shilling or dick riding when it's true? Sekiro is clearly much better than Nioh or Tsushima.

What Fromdrones? Every one of those youtubers and streamers play all kinds of games. None of them specialize in From games.

Looks like someone hasn't played the most recent assassins creeds. That's exactly how it works in the new ones.

Did you mean to say non-linear? Because Sekiro has non-linear world design, like DS1.

Do you think they intentionally removed those from the related games list?

>Soulsborne has linear world design, with some degree of interconnectedness, via shortcuts/levels
That is literally the opposite of linear. Learn English before talking with humans, you 3rd world rat.

it might be cause its the same developer

>the severe lack of different weapons really sucks
No it doesn't? Why would that be a negative? Explain.

Hm, Resident Evil games show up in the recommendations for each other. So removing similar games by the same dev is definitely not something Steam does automatically.

DS3 is linear as fuck, so is DS2.
DS1 is however not, and neither is Bloodborne. Sekiro has non-linear world design just like those two.

>Armored Core autismo sperging out as usual
No one wants mecha games, fuck off. Sekiro looks a million times better than any mecha game ever.

I bet your ass is as red as your face right now.

Have you ever fucking played DaS2 in your life?
It's the most non-linear of them all, since right off the bat you already have 2 areas, five minutes and it turns into 3, and so on up until the Drangleic Castle, and even then the prerequisites to enter the castle are to either get 4 boss souls (any order) or amass 1mil souls, making it 100% possible to just skip any of the 4 boss you don't want to tackle on before the castle.

DaS1 has you sequence breaking some paths but not all of them like 2 does. Plus the inability to travel to other areas makes 1 much more linear in practice.

I'm glad From(Miyazaki) is taking some risks with this game

This is also why Basedboys do the gaped mouth thing, they're smiling ironically.

>It's the most non-linear of them all
No it isn't.
>since right off the bat you already have 2 areas, five minutes and it turns into 3
You do realize in Dark Souls 1, you have 8 directions you can go after the Asylum, and 8 different bosses you could kill as your first boss?
DS1 is a hundred times more non-linear than DS2. DS2 is literally four linear paths at the start, after which you unlock the final linear path that starts at Drangleic Castle and the rest of the game is that path. It's disgustingly bad compared to DS1 world design.

>so is DS2
>and neither is Bloodborne

Attached: super delusion.webm (640x360, 2.94M)

You're the delusional one. DS2 consists of multiple linear paths that are not connected to each other.
Bloodborne has similar non-linear world design to DS1, at least for majority of the game. This is COMPLETELY MISSING from DS2.

This. Mecha games are innately against the very calculative and precise nature of Souls and Sekiro.

You have no argument. I explained why you are wrong, and you have no counter argument.

Why? I know From doesn't care about wasting time making an Armored Core game. Isn't it more like you mecha cucks are raging mad? While the whole world and even the devs simply do not care?

Because bottomboys are afraid to gig good. The game obviously has more depth to the combat than the souls games and this infuriates the bottomboys because the game is also offline and has limited character experimentation. Oh well im gonna have a blast come release night. Gonna grab me a handle and snacks and I expect to lose track of time until it's daylight.

>explained
>argument
No, user, you just made a false claim with no evidence to support it. Because it doesn't exist.
One glance at BB map is enough to realize it's the same as DS3 - linear path with a couple of dead ends, folded to look more complex. BB has nowhere near the nonlinearity of DS1 and is a theme ride in comparison.

Because people are butthurt it's not bloodsouls

>bloodsouls

I really like the RPG-ish element of trying out different builds. :( Hopefully all the time and money taken out of weapon/build variety will go into equally worthwhile areas for replayability.

That's simply not true. The entirety of Yharnam is a labyrinth with dozens of shortcuts that open doors back to earlier checkpoints and areas.
DS2 has nothing like that, only multiple, completely linear paths. To say BB world design anywhere near the same kind as DS2 is just dishonest.

>That's simply not true.
There you go again with you "no u" "argument".
>The entirety of Yharnam is a labyrinth with dozens of shortcuts that open doors back to earlier checkpoints
We're talking map interconnectivity here, not intraconnectivity. DS2 had plenty of that actually, and DS3 even more than DS1 or BB together in some areas.
At larger scale BB might even be more linear than DS2, because the latter offered you multiple paths of progression.

???
Sekiro has more build variety

dumb ds2 poster

>We're talking map interconnectivity here
That is exactly what I was talking about moron. Yharnam is not one zone. It has like over a dozen separate areas in it, and they connect to each other. That is interconnectivity.
Holy shit you're retarded.
>At larger scale BB might even be more linear than DS2
You are absolutely fucking delusional. It is nowhere even close to as linear as DS2.

He later explained his argument unironically was that they reused moon texture assets, being too retarded to figure it its made to look exactly like real life moon.

Sekiro is going to be everything BB should have been but Sony apologists and the BB fandom actually refuse to see it.
BB should have got rid of
>Levels
>Armors completely
>PvP for what it's worth
And only then it could have been a great game. What we got was an unfinished transition but because it's lovecraftian, way too many cocksuckers are blind to this.

Attached: 1449981327982.jpg (300x356, 63K)

BB was a great game, but you are right, it would have been 10/10 without leveling and PvP. There's no problem with it having different armors since the stats on them don't really matter AT ALL. They're just for aesthetic customization, and that's good.

Wait are you actually trying to imply this is supposed to be bad? Is Yea Forums this retarded?

Imagine this: Instead of R1 blasting and damage sponge enemies we had something like bushido blade1 with limb damaging and something almost like 1hit-kill or bleeding to death. Something that implies danger and rewards skilled players. Instead of that pressXtokill we had something like critical strikes from tenchu. From what i saw, the game has no substance, no weight on the combat, it just feels like a bland version of BB without blood and rpg elements.

I really wanted to like it, but i'm not a retarded who swallows everything a publisher make just because they got it right before. I want to change my mind and bite my tongue, but im not buying it now.

Yea Forums is that retarded, yes

Because Soulsfags and most of Yea Forums are retarded

IMAGINE BEING SO FAT YOU SEE VIDYA AND THINK ITS BURGER

kys

Tnx for the blog, subscribed

It is another souls copy paste but this time its a little too different so soulsfags cant cope. All your games are generic trash and are just as bad as cod, bf, and ac with their copy paste generic shit

It has barely anything similar to Souls games. Nothing about it is copypaste. It's the most unique game in many years. Literally has a combat the likes of which the world has never seen before, actual, good looking and well done swordplay.

Lol this, only diehard Soulsfag actually think this is totally different from Souls to everyone else its still looks like Souls with some slight changes so basically its a game that appeals to nobody.

Souls games were already the most non-generic games of the past decade, and Sekiro is even more unique than them.
You are delusional mate.

Nah, you just cant accept criticism of your shitty copy paste games and the fact that more than one person feels this way since soulsfags are some of the worst people on Yea Forums

Every game in Yea Forums is TORtanic now

Yeah its sad, if anything TORtanic cause Yea Forums more harm than EA

EASY,let me explain, but also keep in mind that the oppinion is probably 50%-50%. there are also quite a few sekino hype threads lately
>/v loves dark souls/bloodborne so ofc they'd be down for a new FROMSOFT game
>however they are also a bit retarded and have close to zero creativity so they are afraid of change because they cant see the good in it until they've played it themselves
>on top of that they are more attached to visuals than actual gameplay, hence why lots are irrate over loosing character creation and armor sets(lets be honest, stats on those barely mattered)
>also the reason why people are hype about code vein in the first place lol. shit gameplay but "goood visuals"(mommy milkies)
>they think they understand the game better than the people who made it and will force repetition of the same systems until the genre dies
>this is also why DMCV had more hype threads. Game is changing little from past titles, hell even some stuff like level design is dumb down compared to past titles. Game wouldnt have worked better had it come out 2 years after DmC or DMC4
so yeah, just dummy nerds scared of change, consensus will likely change in a week once we all experience kino. Probably the opposite to dmc5 where the hype was avobe the clouds but now people are starting to realize it truly wasnt that good
also not trying to oppose sekiro vs DMC5 here, but i think both perfectly exemplyfy the "scared of change..then game is kino VS superhyped about game with barely any new system...then realize game is a bit bad"

Dmcfags are worse

You haven't played an AC in a while have you? There are no stealth takedowns any more, those only work on grunts now, hidden blade now does like 5% damage and if you haven't cleared the area of enemies before engaging your target the ensuing fight aggros every one of them including archers. Your description could literally apply to the last two AC games.

>In Sekiro, it is merely a stealth attack that deals a certain amount of damage, there are no guaranteed kills.
Actually it does.
It's called a "deathblow". There are various ways to inflict one upon the enemy, such as breaking their posture, or stealth. But regardless, a deathblow will empty the enemy's health bar entirely.
It's just that some enemies have more than one health bar. And bosses can actually only be killed by deathblows. Regular attacks won't bring down their HP bar below 1HP.

Majority of people on Yea Forums have the ability to acknowledge FromSofts games are some of the very best in game history. It's just an objective fact, it's why they got so popular in the past decade.
Also how are they copypaste, you retarded? Oh wait we already know you are.
DeS, DS1 and BB very different from each other. Sekiro COMPLETELY different in every single way.

>50%-50%
More like 97% here are hype for it, and 3% are 1-3 guys so assmad about it that they make dozens of threads and hundreds of posts daily. You can tell it's the same guys from the way they talk and write.

>Food analogy

Yeah you chinks do seem to be mad about FromSoft. Is it because China has never made a good game?

Who are you quoting?

Not as freakish or Gonzo as past Souls games. It’s like VanillaWare following up Odin Sphere with Miranda; technically more efficient, but far blander
