sekiro isn't a difficult game. nearly every twitch streamer is completing it. there are actually difficult games like shmups, not Sekiro.

Ah shit you're right, I was getting it mixed up with the dying guy mentioning the axe.

i don't know why this keeps getting posted. ogre's left hand clearly clips Sekiro on the down swing.

ooooh this nigga's furious, did you have to stop your epic twitch stream to make that webm?

we shit souls 2 again?

Yeah I mean it's a pretty casual game in the grand scheme of things, but for normie zoomers it's "hardcore". prepare to die etc
gg Activision

So is "Shura" just hollowing? or is it a new concept

Neither of those webms come even close to the bullshit in DaS2 but go ahead and keep on memeing my dude

>t. couldn't get past Blazing Bull

This enemy is incredibly based, needs some ropes around that arena

>dodge too early
>backstep at that against a drop kick
>eats shit
this game is fucking based

Who is the easiest miniboss and why is it Long-arm Centipede Giraffe?

already way past him, I'm not going to pretend this Activision / Souls game is "hardcore". LE PREPARE TO DIE is a joke when every twitch streamer beats this game.

the problem is that retards still play it like if it was a souls game. Just jump back instead of dodging and he's fucking dead.

>crying about second miniboss
based casual

cope

Seeing people try to pass this game off as EPIC HARDCORE DIFFICULTY is so sad. This game sold millions of copies and is literally published by the Call of Duty publisher, if it was some elite difficult game then it wouldn't be so mainstream.

reminder that there's no penalties for resurrecting, dragonrot is only spread when you choose to die/die with no resurrections left.

And of course, my last and only confetti buff just had to wear down when Headless was almost dead.
Who the fuck thought it was okay to have bosses that could be damaged only under the effect of a buff item that you can't even buy?

Anyway, did I fuck up not to send the soldier to the dungeon? I got him right next to O-Rin but I can't send him there anymore.

This should tell you just how fucking hard the game is

When was the last time Yea Forums got this BTFO by a game?

The dropkick is a fucking narrow kick that goes forward. Instead of dodging backwards (and clearly not far away enough from his attack) he could've sidestepped it.

>autists that play games 12 hours a day everyday are good at games
WHOOOOOA DUDE YOU SURE SHOWED ME

I'd love to try the game, but it doesn't work with ps4 controllers and i'm not getting it on console...

i stopped attacking it and was looking for something i could do to stop the fight but i guess it wasn't meant to be.

its selling based on souls/fromsoft name, retard. thats why so many shitters are disappointed

You can buy them a little later in the game

shmups are more difficult than Sekiro
fighting games are more difficult than Sekiro
action games at the highest ranks / difficulties are more difficult than sekiro

MHW is casual as fuck, and yet even extreme behemoth is more difficult than anything in Sekiro

It's just funny watching soulsfags get absolutely btfo when faced with a game that doesn't play like an exact 1:1 copy of the shit they've been playing for 10 years and cry instead of adapting

not this time. thats for sure.

>it doesn't work with ps4 controllers
I'm 30 hours in and my ps4 controller works just fine without any third party/additional setup.

>only male feet

fuck off and fuck you miazaki

People are having issues with the game detecting XB1 and 360 controllers as well.

This is honestly hitboxes working right since you were at his heel, but most games don't do it like that

You are so fucking angry lmao. Thats adorable.

That snek part got my heart pumping

twitch streamers are mostly casuals, and include tons of women. they're all playing sekiro and getting through it. these are the kinds of people who could never play actually difficult games.

Is there a correlation between people who exclusively parry and suckjng at the game?

A little later when exactly? Because I've killed a lot of things already, though to be fair I still didn't beat up Genichiro, I just wandered into a hole, cleaned up Blightown, yadda yadda and got to the corrupted monk, those ghost type enemies are really pissing me off.

>i wonder if the controller works on steam because of the steam controller settings, which means pirates get fucked.
yeah. although im pretty sure you can just add the pirated .exe to the steam library and the steam controller tool will do the auto config for you as well.

Difficult like what? shmups? Because they've all beat bloodborne and dark souls too. And if shmups are the next hardest thing you can think of then that means it's pretty difficult in its own right.

fighting games require very difficult execution
sekiro requires R1

>one reddit man
kys

30-50 hours.

It really is. I was genuinely surprised.

All pirates need to do is rename the .exe and just set up custom controls tho right?

When hasn't Yea Forums gotten BTFO by a game? Bunch of underage retards here.

I had the same problem. There are branches you can grapple to down below

raven feathers

jump on some rocks

her buildup made her seem like tough shit but the Shinobi Hunter and Drunk boy are straight up more difficult

any one thinking this is how you do hitboxes is clinically retarded & can't grasp basic physics.
the hit box should only appear when the leg starts swinging fast enough to reasonably damage you.

my cat doesn't take damage when it comes up and rubs on my leg. it would only take damage if I swung my leg into it at a reasonable speed.

He has of windows to attack after parrying him though? He doesn't jump back all of the time. In fact he has a lot of openings like when he slams down or throws the no heals-status effect. He also has way more 3 attacks.

There's nothing there

That purple motherfucker you encounter on the starting area when you go back is so hard. Anyone have tips?

It was an interesting setpiece with great visuals. Were you not satisfied with the 1000 1v1 duals before him? Variety is a good thing.

>any one thinking this is how you do hitboxes is clinically retarded & can't grasp basic physics.
>the hit box should only appear when

Good point, idiot

I had trouble with her since I had atack upgrades or bead upgrades. I didn't know all you had to do was press L1.

is this the difficulty of sekiro?

sekiro does not require complex execution like a fighting game. you attack by pressing r1, theres no 360 inputs or plinking or 1 frame links.

look up how capcom does hitboxes retard.
do you honestly think the hit boxes are there the whole time?
they're only there for certain frames.

roll dodge towards and get behind

now this is a hot take

I dont think this is a great game. Its 7/10.

>-k

user why did you have to use that phrase

there is an NPC in front of him that helps (but dies in seconds)

use him to keep aggro on drunkard while you kill adds

then dodge into drunkard rather than away from him and r1

>Sekiro isn't a R1 spamfest
Are you playing the same game that I'm playing?
You have one weapon, one button and a meter.
Open your eyes.

No one is arguing that Sekiro is more or as difficult to play as fighting games you utter retard.

Fucking hell finally, thanks user

Press r1 in a relaxed manner, don't mash it but just press it frequently you can interrupt a lot of his attacks and keep him stunlocked that way especially in phase 2. Besides that it's just blocking his attacks and combos. You only really need to reduce his health a little bit to be able to get a quick kill

Kill everyone around him by baiting them into the hallway to the left and then pull the npc into the fight.

You actually have four or five buttons that can be used in combat at one point or another

Basically it's just run AFTER him and hit from the side wile jumping from his frontal assaults and dodging side attacks. Also try to hit his head to deal more damage. His attacks seem to pierce through block with some fire damage or some shit like that.

I'm really glad that Sekiro is a good game that you guys enjoy. I haven't played it though, but I hope you are having fun :)

Good bosses that are fun to fight and have interesting counters and dynamics:
Gyoubu (horse guy)
Genichiro (guy on top of castle, he cuts your arm off in beginning)
Guardian Ape
Corrupted Monk
Armored Warrior
Long Necked Centipede Giraffe

Bosses that are absolute bullshit and complete artificial difficulty that you HAVE to cheese because of how retarded they are:
Chained Ogre
Lady Butterfly
Emma
Isshin
Great Carp
Headless
Blazing Bull
Lone Shadow Longswordsman
Lone Shadow Vilehand
Ashina Elite
Shichimen Warrior
Snake Eyes (both of them)
O'Rin of the Water

O'Rin in particular can fuck right off.

You say that as if you made any sort of point. You really are a goddamn retard.

Being harder than a fighting game isn't exactly a good thing anyways, fighting games attract mentally ill/massive autists like shit attracts flies. Anyone who plays fighting games seriously likely has a mental condition

The mikiri counter parry is so fucking long you cannot whiff it. It's your ENTIRE dodge animation, you colossal fucking ape.

Is lack of spatial reasoning a sign of some sort of autism?

He has tons of openings tho, he's 100% completely fair.

You can start the fight with a backstab. After that just can just bait out attacks and roll back to avoid, then do a charged punish. Especially if he does his grab. Other than that you really need to remember which parts of his combos he can shoot you.

So I just killed our training dummy nigga. What's the point of being able to kill yourself? Is there like some sort of obscure bullshit again where you need to die in a certain area to activate it?

Doesn't work.
>deflect the attack
>R1 at her
>lol she blocks then instant hits you with an unblockable attack

Not to mention that she's nearly impossible to damage hp wise so her posture is always recovered. You HAVE to cheese her by baiting the lunging 2 strike from long range then hitting her back over and over and over. Nothing else works on her.

I'm a literal programmer that has been programming for over a fucking decade and I can tell you with absolute certainty that any good game that's worth a goddamn fuck isn't going to damage you just because a monsters heel fucking touched you at the beginning of the attack. The intention is for him to swing his foot forward and kick you, but the attack is damaging the player for being BEHIND the kick because the player's collision box touched the heel of the foot's collision box. If you REALLY think that's how the game should be behaving after I just explained it to your dumb as fuck low IQ ass, then please do us all a favor and castrate yourself.

Jesus Christ, what's wrong with you people. Why do you defend stuff that's blatantly incorrect? It's okay to criticize your favorite games. It's not like you're even the friend of the devs or anything, you're just another faggot that gave them money for their game. There is literally no incentive for you to choke on their cock like this.

>hurrr physics, this leg might as well not exist as long as it didn't reach enough velocity (I don't use speed but say velocity to show how smart I am and how stupid you are) because damage is just about Yes/No

I love the game, but some visuals give me this Dark Souls 2 vibe.

Did I fuck up? I healed their dragon rot before they died.

He's dead, so no.

god I completely forgot about this axe
Is it just a gimmick weapon that you only use for a few enemies, or does it have any general application? It does negligible damage to enemy posture.

nice argument

Jump her unblockable sweep and you get a guaranteed 1 hit sometimes 2, stop being retarded.

Bum rush the minions. If your buddy survives the 2v1 makes the fat dude piss fucking easy.

Most of the time you can attack after deflecting a single hit, sometimes not however so try out when he does and doesn't continue attacking if you hit him
The fuck? You can consistently and often attack him inbetween his attacks and they will stop most of his attack strings.
The cross shit can be ran away from easily
I beat him without using firecrackers

Okay and? That doesn't mean you have to defend it. It's the contrary. Just say it's fucking wrong and move on instead of trying to start arguments online defending their retardation. This is like how people were defending the fact they tied their logic to FPS as a feature back when DS1 came out on PC.

This place is truly lost. user, would it hurt you if my leg touched you while I was winding up a kick, or after I had already swung my foot? You can take your time, this isn't a timed test.

thanks m8

Just learn his patterns and attacks. If you use an estus beware he will start aiming at you with his bow. You can parry or better dodge the arrow but it's better to be as far away from him while healing.
Phase 1 he has two special moves: a thrust attack which he most of the time uses after a jump attack that can be countered by mikiri for posture damage and a chip at his health with a quick slash afterwards and a grab that should be avoided.
Phase 2 he get additional moves: a sweep attack and a thrust upwards. Don't remember exactly when he uses them.
Phase 3 i didn't even notice how the fuck i beat him. Just spammed light attacks on him and then used that lightning parry move when he was charging his lighning bow attack.

Which does nothing. You can jump kick counter and her posture damage instantly heals and she blocks regular attacks.

Besides mikiri counter you can also get a sneak attack on him by crawling through the flowers, just make sure to clear the mobs first

Have you really gotten to Rin and haven't learned that the lower their health, the slower their posture bar regens? Once she's at half health, it regens so slowly that it will fill up just by perfect parrying her. Either you're a retarded who blocks instead of parries or you're an impatient faggot who whines that he can't R1 spam.

>there are people still having problems with literally the first few minibosses/bosses

You can't make this shit up. It wasn't this bad with the other Soulsbourne games.

I killed the looter in the memory. Was that dumb of me?

Can you shut the fuck up already? You post like you're still on reddit and nothing you're saying is worth typing. Sekiro has hit boxes that are extremely par for the course with Fromsoft.

What do you mean?

I won't debate the environments because I haven't finished the game yet.
Weird how you didn't mention anything about gameplay at all except maybe the environment. Style over substance I guess

Where the fuck do I go?

I’m at the Bell. I’ve killed the Corrupted Monk already.

More yokai.
Add a few more weapons.

Double jumps

The point I'm making is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to lower her health except by running away and baiting her lunge and hitting her in the back once or twice. EVERY other way she immediately blocks or goes ghost form and invulnerable.

Is she beatable? Yes. But she is total fucking cancer and absolutely unfun to fight.

Just beat the game. This is the one Fromsoft game that I actually regret exploring alternate routes before progressing the main path. I found basically everything possible before climbing the castle and I was confused as fuck as to what the hell was going on in the story. I hope there's a lot more to the NPCs this time around because I'm pretty sure I only managed to complete one or two of their quest chains.

>Snake Eyes
Yeah no fun. Had to burn those bitches.

they're regular enemies, you can stealth kill them

huh, well then the mini-boss kicked my ass 20+ times and the real boss didn't put a dent in my health bar

Divine Heir is a boy.

Go back down and cross the bridge.

How can you fucking think that the Monk is good while O'rin is shit? What in the actual fuck that guy was so fucking boring to fight.

>Run away
I just killed her standing still and just parrying, you are making the fight take longer by running away.

Better level design, prettier environments. Make them more unique so you don't feel like you're running in circles.

>What do you mean?
Everything regarding visuals, audio, and writing.

>Weird how you didn't mention anything about gameplay
Yeah, I forgot to mention that the loot system in Nioh was really lame and detracted from the experience. Also, I prefer how Sekiro handles traversing the world, Nioh's mission system hurts the adventure aspect of the game. Plus, the side missions were just re-instanced "dungeon" forms of the primary missions and did nothing to assist the adventuring or immersion.

Anyone got tips for this Ashina Elite guy in the castle? He’s fucking insane, attacks fast and almost one shots me

it's ancient japanese genderbend magic aint gotta explain shit

>bring o-ren to cliff
>watch her swing helplessly as you can jump up and slap her because the AI in this is too retarded to jump off a cliff and everyone is "sticky" to cliff sides most of the time to prevent easy cheesing

Nioh has superior base gameplay but that's really about it, how could you possibly argue Nioh has a better story? 99% of the characters in Nioh are totally bland garbage, by he time I completed the game I'd met, what, 20 different characters? Maybe six of them were worth paying attention to.

what are the changes? enemies deal more dmg and have more hp?

Because O'Rin is cancer and instant blocks every attack you throw and you have to cheese her to win.

Monk has combos that you can actually punish her when you deflect them, she has openings that you can exploit and hit her, and above all else, she doesn't require cheesing.

Is that the blue guy right after the idol?

Firecrackers and then spam the tornado slash thing.

That is the one complaint I have with the game. Too many bosses pull the "SURPRISE, FUCKFACE, I HAD A HIDDEN HP BAR, NOW YOU SEE MY TRUE FORM". Which is honestly bullshit because almost every enemy shows you upfront what it will take to kill them.

When people are complaining about Chained Ogre, Blazing Bull, and Lady Butterfly, is it just a joke I'm not getting? They are the 3 easiest fights in the game so far

don't attack him first, bait him to attack, his double Vergil slash is very predictable, and you parry that bitch
posture would break before you know it

I think my NG+ is broken, I got to the Ashina Gates and they're sealed tight. There's a warp into the abandoned dungeon entrance but it triggered the Owl shinobis

You have to get your deflect timing down perfectly.
After his 2 swings, he usually baits into a lunge or that weird stab move.
Strike after that.
It only takes like 6 parries and 3 smacks to fuck up his posture.

Attached: 1550434880655.jpg (360x360, 55K)

isnt game over after this?

Reservoir idol in the Castle. Go towards the tower but hug the right wall, and follow it around to the right to reach the well.

>either nut up or shut up fggt

You're probably getting baited by the dodge tutorial. Just jump over him or use fire.

>ring bell
>game suddenly turns into Ape Escape

MIYAAAAAAZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

O Rin doesn't require cheese either, you just suck

Chained ogre was a blast, what are you mad about? He's based. Half the time I die I get a good laugh too.

Learn his parry timing, he’s the definition of a glass canon. You get wrecked if hit but his posture is complete shit.

What happens if O'rin grabs you?

no longer able to revive(if you choose to) if you die you go back to last bonfire

Tap L1 in rhythm with his slashes. Seriously, that's it.

Double ape boss is utter fucking bullshit, how the fuck am I supposed to beat it?

This is demons souls and dark souls and bloodborne all over again. Shitters getting BTFO. Thank you based from.

I'm guessing that I need more Snap Seeds for her? I used the one the guy gave me in the room with the trap door because I thought he meant there were invisible enemies or something. I really don't want to struggle through her first phase again and again just to be obliterated within seconds of her second phase. When can I buy more, if I need to?

you don't DODGE his throw
you better fucking RUN

honestly he's not even that hard

>monkey trouble

You're just wrong. You MUST cheese her or you cannot damage her hp pool. Unlike almost every other enemy in the game you can't damage her after deflecting her combos.

Yeah he’s right next to the idol. I can get him down to half his first hp bar, but basically any mistake on my part is insta death

FIRECRACKERS

Jesus people, they are broken as shit for fighting damn near everything.

So I'm only a few hours in but do enemy's drop spirit emblems when you kill them after using tools against them? Because I only seem to get them that way.

mist raven trivializes the fight

what skills should I be aiming for first?

I got the makati (or whatever) counter and the more difficult to detect latent skill

it's lewd-o-hours

Just run around and avoid the phatoms if you're out of snaps. They disappear eventually. You can't buy more.

even better, you cant even summon in help in this game :)

Actually you can dodge. Depending on which grab, you can just jump away from it.

STOP RECYCLING SOULSHIT
Remove character levels and other RPG mechanics, make upgrades like new moves or passives rewards from beating bosses instead, that would also promote sequence breaking and challenges.
Add actual stealth mechanics, for real this time.
Remove Terror, it's just cheap and exacerbates the problem with the combat system
Make more than eight normal enemies
Make normal enemies do something, give them an actual AI while you're at it
Make ghost bosses not an absolute shitshow.
Go easy on the parryshit, the game is WAY too focused on that, it has no variety.
Add some actual variety and mechanics to how you approach things instead of making the game a glorified reflex test
Maybe character creator?
Costumes

Yeah it's pretty easy to interrupt some of her moves, which makes sense since she's basically a tutorial for teaching the concept of chipping health for better posture infliction.

Don't listen to this guy. The brown does fuck all.

Focus on the headless one instead.

Gun valley is easy. Just use the umbrella prothetic for the suspension bridge run.

all the passives you can get, the other ones dont matter one bit, maybe monk skills which you get later

It is challenging but not impossible, and I do agree that some are exaggerating. No offense, but sounds like you havent even played it though

Do you get dragonrot for just dying as well?
I keeping dying against Lady Butterfly but nor reviving.
Then the notification for the son getting sick shows up.

Grab the skill that recovers health on deathblows as quick as you can.

Why are you lying?

You’re so shit you assume I’m lying for not cheesing an easy mini boss. You’re pathetic.

Doesn't matter if you res or not, any time you die (red kanji screen and teleport back to not-bonfire) you get dragonrot.

I don't know how many deaths it takes to cause dragonrot, but that purple faggot defending the nothingpersonnelkid prosthetic sure made my NPCs suffer.

Do I really have to fight the headless TWoP faggot this early in the game?

kek

Completely optional, user.

There's a reason for the note warning you not to go forward to the cave

2 out of his top 3 games aren't even souls games lmao

Literally learn to parry properly. He nearly breaks himself if you parry his 2 hit iai slash. No shield needed.

I just killed the spear midboss in the memory. Should I go past him and the idol or should I go back to the river and enter that cave?

Finally defeated Butterfly. Took like 10 tries but 9/10 deaths were because of the shit camera/lockon making it so that when she jumped I'd lose the fucking lockon and then when I try to lock again while dodging the camera reset spins the camera to the wrong fucking direction and she stabs me in the fucking back

Who the fuck even uses camera reset in these games and which retarded shit decided to make it so that you can't assign it to a button seperate from lockon holy shit just fucking die

>use firecrackers
>get dunked by the second ape mid animation

But you can? She isn't always invisible and you can damage her just fine after deflecting.
Try actually playing the game

but hes easy, very easy, even easier in 3rd form, he practically kills himself cause you just deflect lightning.

I hope the opposite. Sekiro is so much more enjoyable than the souls games that it's not even funny. Take this as the base and give it rpg mechanics for the next game.

If you can. I already completed Hitana State and Ashina Castle (at least up to this point), exploring Kongo Mountain now, and I still dont want to face headless again, until I get a reliable source of confetti

I must be missing the actual way forward, then. Thank fuck for that.

Holy shit you’re right, he really does have no posture, this is t so bad

Lone Shadow Vilehand is objectively the worst part of the game so far. It's two enemies that are essentially the same and clearly not made to be fought at the same time, crammed together in a tiny room. None of their mechanics or anything about them works as a double miniboss, it's just two enemies that have no reason to not constantly stunlock you.

It depends, but the first bosses get damage everytime you counterattack after parrying the right way (depending on the patterns and staggering animations of the enemy), most of the time you should worry about the posture bar, though

I only found one source talking about it, saying to give a text that you find in a pond to the Divine Child in the Inner Sanctum to trigger the next step but I had done that and she didn't do shit, just had one throw away dialogue line and nothing changed.

You can either book it to the side of the cliff and get into the house or some user last thread said theres a branch to the right that takes you to him.

I can do it in less than 20 seconds. Start at lower statue, kill guy near bridge, kill pan man, kill gun man, kill everyone else. No one raises alarm.

thanks
>and have fun
[nervous sweating]

go back to the monkey place, the trickster monkeys, up in heaven

Gunners usually drop some

Honestly, I don't really see the issue regarding visuals. Nioh as pretty great armor/weapon designs while Sekiro goes a bit into the grim fantasy direction. It's different. I mean Nioh has magic/fantasy too but I really just mean stuff like armor and weapons. They just have that kind of autists over there
Audio I wouldn't really agree, I think Sekiro is kinda lame and From delivered some great sound design in the past but I don't see that in this game. I mean it's there but that's it. Nioh has a few nice tracks and some beautiful levels.
You have levels to explore in Nioh, and I don't really understand what you want from sidemissions either. They were different enough desu.
In Nioh you travel a lot more (storywise), the locations are far away from each other, it's different. Not every game has to be set the same way, like progressing on foot yourself through the entire game.
I'm not really getting some adventure vibes in Sekiro either.
Maybe if they talked in a vague, slow and melancholic way, you would like them more.
Story wasn't that much of a deal in Nioh, it was alright I guess.

Just mindfuck the second guy before starting the fight.

There's like 3 and one where it's kinda both

Did anyone else like all of the game but just found the bosses felt overly drawn out and not impactful at all?

They made the deflecting system just feel muddy and not snappy.

I finished the game and overall liked it but any boss that wasn't the Gorilla was so one note and felt more like a QTE of stand still and wait for the prompts than anything.

even worst for the boss after it if you rush the area

Yeah I'm 11 hours in and I've beaten horse guy and butterfly lady so far. And I just beat the bull. I'm not even dying to the bosses much but just trying to explore all the areas. I'm told there are 11 total actual bosses so I'm expecting to play this for at least 30 hours unless the other areas are much smaller

Is there a way to choose "Help Kuro" or is the game just fucking with me?

you don't have internet?

>>dragonrot spreads
Why should I even care about that shit?

As soon as you appear at the idol statue, take left across the 2 branches with the hook, backstab the first guy, then run to the pan man and killed him. Crouch and go under the house (if you got the key, take the item inside it first), backstab the gunman, crouch again and go down, backstab the other dude, jump the cliff and go into the tower, backstab Spearguy and battle him around the tower. This way everytime you day it will take you like hald a minute to get to him again without getting damage at all, pretty much the same applies to other bosses/mini bosses

I really wish Lady Butterfly didn't have a hidden second deathblow counter. I accrued a lot of rot on her fighting her early (i.e. as my first real boss) because the area leading up to her wasn't that bad and I thought that would be it. But no, I wasted all that time and all those deaths just to get halfway and realize I should have just left her for later.

Did you literally not play the game till the next dialogue?

Nothing wrong with that, they see him in their peripheral vision but simply think he's one of them, happens all the time in real life.

Is there ever a vendor that sells infinite items? I have so much money that i'm afraid of losing but I have nothing to buy.

I’m thinking I’ll probably take 50 hours at this rate if all areas are similar sizes. Realistically I’m expecting less because I think some of the trophy bosses won’t be as hard just like the souls games.

will this ever not trigger suckiro shills?

Swaxe is unga but it also locks you into animations surprisingly long and doesn't have any extra defensive options like half the weapons do, and this time the damage output on the thing is middle of the pack and not fucking ridiculous like it was in XX so it can't just flinchlock monsters for ages.

Not finished with the game yet, reckon I'm about halfway in, and I have to agree, outside of ONIWA GYOUBU MASATAKA, Genichiro, the corrupted monk and the Drunk midboss twins, the rest felt either a QTE spar session or outright sloppy garbage made for the sake of being gratuitously hard.
I really, really like Gyoubu though, so far he and Genichiro have been fantastic fights.

>an enemy attacking with a foot is considered a bug
user I think you need to take a break from this place, you aren’t well.

not like rot matters, npcs just cough and get a bit less talkative

>Honestly, I don't really see the issue regarding visuals.
FROM has better artists. They know how to balance color and lighting better. Nioh has some nice areas, but also has a lot of tacky / gaudy ones. It's another Team Ninja complaint of mine.

> I don't really understand what you want from sidemissions either.
I don't want them to feel like instanced dungeons made for finding loot. FROM's games are bad enough with that, but Nioh took that shit to a level I couldn't deal with with the side missions.

>Not every game has to be set the same way
I never understood this remark. Yeah, they don't, but I can also prefer how one game does level progression over how another game does it. And I prefer Sekiro's.

Is there actually a QTE fight in the game

idk, haven't beaten it yet. I doubt it though, considering I haven't found any lapis lazuli at all and I'm generally really far from completing any given trees.

Also there's a lot of datamined bosses from the trophy list that I haven't seen yet and I also haven't fought the real corrupted monk

The actual step forward is going past the ogre, you'll get to a courtyard with some enemies on the walls and a miniboss in the middle.

For me it wasn't even difficulty I just don't think the deflect system works with the bosses.

It's better to literally just stand still and wait for prompts. There's no dynamic movement going in and out of offense or defense. You just stand there and press the invisible button prompt and then hit them twice because every fuck recovers and starts parrying on the third then repeat.

the only fun part about this game is the exploring, once the honeymoon period is over people will realise this is probably his worst game

>NG+ when you can only use on weapon/build
why would anybody think this is a good idea

the white one is insanely easy 1v1, the brown one presents the entire challenge.

>Drunk boy
What are you on? Any miniboss you can stealth makes it a one health bar fight
Ganny tits is way tougher thn him because you have that gauranteed to bars to get through

are these low quality shitstains supposed to be blood?

Given I can back out of the choice and just leave through the ninja wall makes me think you can fuck with it some how.

the lilac umbrella trivializes them if you can get it.

I cleared that area but only found the way to Headless that loops around to the one way door. Guess I need to look harder.

go to the broken bridge in that area
look down
there should be platforms and grapple branches down

>I don't want them to feel like instanced dungeons made for finding loot. FROM's games are bad enough with that, but Nioh took that shit to a level I couldn't deal with with the side missions.
I don't get you at all

Yeah, blood mixed with Dragonrot if you died some times, I think.

Once you clear that area, go right past outside it to the broken bridge then jump down to the left. Keep going through that valley for a scaly surprise.

The Iai dude on top of Ashina castle is pretty much a QTE without visible prompts.

Can someone tell me why this guy is fumbling around all the fucking time? It feels like every stupid hit from enemies stagger you

Different guy here. Nioh levels are complete garbage with the exception of a few, and i experienced the best ones in the alpha and beta. I don't think it's fair comparing it something like Sekiro because it was built to push level design even further but even compared to Dark Souls which is more grounded it's not very good.

My two biggest complaints are level design and enemies. I shouldn't be seeing the same enemies 50+ hours in but recolored without adding more mob variation. I don't mind recolored enemies..or even enemies that look the same but give different movesets an example would be the ninja yokai but shit like the Snowclops should have been already in the game(it's a fucking recolor they added as an enemy for DLC for christ sake) when we have a snow level in the base game with the cyclops.

With that said i though the DLC for Nioh was superb and i have hopes for the second game since i think they're the only devs to make a game with this kind of budget to match what from has made because all the eastern European devs have disappointed me greatly with terrible jank shit.

Most of the side missions were locations you already went to but now with remixed spawns. It's a horrible experience.

>You MUST cheese her or you cannot damage her hp pool
The what pool? You mean you aren't killing everything with posture?

>but give different movesets
stopped reading there because they do.
reach WOTN.

I keep accidentally finding secrets like hidden rooms with treasure and passages.
The game is tough but a bit... dull and not very rewarding.

Original poster here, actually I just beat them.
The gimmick is that one attacks you and the other supports from distance and they switch CONSTANTLY, like after one or two combos. You have to focus the one that's running towards you right now

40-50 hours is the average.

God, the mikiri counter is so satisfying

>play though the game 5 times to see moveset variance

No wonder nioh threads die instantly

>record scratch
>freeze frame
Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation.

>No wonder nioh threads die instantly
yeah it hardfilter shitters

That chained up ogre is what was raping people? I just ran around, for close to bait an attack, run out of range then run back in range when he misses and spank him a few times. Felt pretty cheesy but his grap almost one shot me so I'm not fucking around.

>I keep accidentally finding secrets like hidden rooms with treasure and passages.
ok??

because people are bad and just mash R1, without paying attention to the ogres attacks

So who else dumps all their spare cash on coin purses? Silly enemies won't be getting my sheckles on death.

It pisses me off lmao it's like what am I too good?

Well you can always stay in fromsoft threads and talk to us since yours never reach 10 post even for a nock off souls game.
