Why is sekiro getting awful user metacritic ratings compared to most souls games?

Its mediocre. A "non souls" having 1/4 of the content, and its not that interesting, just a generic japanese paint on top.

The bosses are a lot better than many of the Dark Souls bosses though.

just smash the deflect. Its the most consistetnt way

This is actually true. For many people Sekiro is their first From game and I'm guessing they were just expecting some gritty JRPG, but ended up with From game. Literally read the negative reviews, they all boil down to "it was too hard" in one way or another.

You sound way farther than I am and you've never broken posture on a mini boss? That sounds ridiculous to me. The one that made the least amount of sense to me was the fire bull so I couldn't break him but I was able to on the other ones. How are you playing? Are you being aggressive or circle strafing like in Souls? How are you trying to parry? Are you tapping the button or are you holding your guard up and trying to parry out of a block?

It's not a souls game you fucking faggot

>50 shades of samurai general or monk carrying swords and spears

This game is grade A garbage, I can't beat the samurai nigger's 2nd form on the castle after trying for 2 hours already, fuck all the dragonrot infested faggots, i just want to beat him. Any Fromsoft "gitgud"elitist faggots, i hope someone important to them dies from cancer.

Okay, and what about the sumo guy who spewed poison? What about the guy on horse back? What about the ogre? What about the flaming bull?

I don't think you've played it.

nah, they actually spam attacks like blodborne or ds3. Actually, Its less interesting because no stamina management , no multiple weapons, all in humanoid bosses, and plain frenetic attack, counter, frenetic frenetic frenetic, counter. There are much less cobat options, and it get very very repetitive very early.
Its staggering how people are so happy with the crazy simplified combat style.

because it's hard. retards who need to git gud are mad.

I am not further than you, I have 2 routes I can go atm: jozu the drunk, or the general miniboss right after the ogre. I have just been stuck on them forever, and I went around exploring a few other places + practiced with unbei a lot hence 10 hours.

as far as what I'm doing, it would be easier to name what I haven't tried at this point. I am trying to play the game like people on youtube say you should and my deflects seem to not work like theirs

To be fair, there curve difficulty is shit. The way the game teach mechanics its nonexistent.

Are you being aggressive or circle strafing like in Souls? How are you trying to parry? Are you tapping the button or are you holding your guard up and trying to parry out of a block?

I've almost never broken the posture of a miniboss unless I was 100% relentless which more often than not lead to me dying anyway, and I found out it was just way more efficient to play a game of attrition where I gradually wore down his health bar, but for some enemies like the guy on horse back, I ended up breaking his posture early and getting a hit in on him.

The dodge feels broken because it has a quarter-second I-frames it feels like, so it's useless and gets you killed, while if you rely on blocking, you end up getting bashed and abused until they break your posture and perform a 1HKO.

There's definitely something buggy, or there's broken non-sense going on.

Souldrones I assume, people who want the same game over and over again. Even though Sekiro is pretty similar to a Souls game, without the build variations. People who won't buy Armored Core or Chromehounds, hell if this was a real Tenchu game they wouldn't get it either.

Jump and kick him, jump over him, or run away from him

You can see in pic related when the Ogre's hitbox clips him. Grabs have worked like this in every Souls game including Dark Souls 1, 3 and Bloodborne, it's just the way they code them (if any part of the hitbox touches you, you're grabbed) nothing B-Team related.

Same here basically but I'm progressing through the game just fine regardless. I'm gonna really work on "gitting gud" this weekend and focus on posture breaking bosses and mini bosses. I do t think it's broken per se just that it hasn't quite clicked for me because so far I haven't had any issue mainly using damage to take everything down.

sekiro does have tutorials, they're just shit. constant popups and a training dummy that don't really teach you how to play the game

you can know the rules of chess and still be garbage at it if you don't learn actual strategy, sekiro doesn't even give a hint as to the latter so it's trial and error until it clicks

The hitbox is accurage, the way the grabs are coded is not, but it happens in every From game
You're supposed to avoid being touched by the attack, the easiest way is to jump, you can also sprint away.

Tutorials were added by Activision, not From.

There's not a single enemy in dark souls that mirrors the flaming bull. The closest you have is the iron pig and it behaves nothing like it.

Just blast him with the fire cannon
ezpz

Sekiro feels like just Bloodborne with jumping to me and I never liked Bloodborne.

The game is basically a Naughty Dog stealth game al a Uncharted, The Last of Us, etc. it just has some Souls elements to the combat. Yet nobody would bitch about an Uncharted game if it was shorter than Souls games and had no build variety.

People are just comparing an apple to an orange and then yelling WTF THIS RED THING DOESN'T TASTE LIKE CITRUS FRUIT?!?!?!?!

Imagine being this bitter about people enjoying a kideo game.

Loads of eavesdropped conversations give boss strategies.

Unfortunately I can't trust metacritic reviews anymore. Paid reviewers are shills and user reviewers have an agenda. It's hard to trust anybody now.

>a new ACE:R to make up for how bad the R
That was entirely on Bandai Namco that'd been meddling more in the series ever since 2, the only purely From game was 1.

Sekiro's world is kind of dull to me, it's just not as interesting as everything built up in Dark Souls and instead of taking the opportunity to do something new with the world/story in Sekiro they decide to just redo Dark Souls/Bloodborne themes again which is dumb.

Read them and see for yourself. They're idiots. People that make user ratings on metacritic are the biggest retards on the internet. They're a step below youtube commenters.

Holy shit, for ten hours that's really early on in the game. I'm not very far in but from what I can gather, people don't really seem to be grasping the back and forth between the player and the enemy. You can't go 100% offense but you can't run around the enemy forever like in Souls. You have to first take a look at how they attack to get a sense of the timing for your parry. It's fine to guard a few to make it easier. When you start your offense don't continuously swing on their guard forever because they're going to counter attack. Like you, the enemy can get a parry guard which gives them the advantage to counter attack. Swing a few times, wait and see what they do, then react accordingly. I hope this helps.
Now I bet next time I play I'm going to run into something that completely kicks my shit in.
Yeah with the dodge you have to get out of the way early. You can't just roll into swings like in Soulsborne games. You're better off spacing yourself out so they whiff entirely than trying to go for a dodge last second.

Nice, I'm cheesing this fuck when I get to him

>Paid reviewers are shills and user reviewers have an agenda
must be hard trusting anything when you're a schizo

They actually changed something in Sekiro compared to the other games, now the enemy redirects his model to face where you stood when you got hit (as seen in the second webm you posted) instead of teleporting you to his arm (which gave the illusion that those attacks had ridiculous tracking, when they actually don't track that much, as evidenced by the times you actually dodge them correctly and don't get hit). But yeah kek they should have fixed it in a different way. If they went to the length to change that visual thing and still didn't fix the underlying issue, I think there may be an actual engine limitation.

>CQC

That's a made-up term by kojima, stop being a fucking mentally handicapped retard please, it's called CQB (the wiki-fags renamed it after people started calling it CQC like the retards they are).

Listen to me, I had the same.

You need to realize that you need to be aggressive.

Try this.

Try hitting an enemy till they deflect, right after he will throw out an attack of his own, deflect this. He will probably throw out 2 or 3 strikes. Now mini bosses can have far longer combos.

The animation misleads you, you can parry as fast as you can press the button, but if you spam the window get smaller and smaller for a parry, so try to mash when the attack will hit.

Sometimes it will feel like bullshit, but you need to get used to the rhythm of their attacks.

>Instead you have to worry about posture, which is more involved and rewarding of a system.

Nice meme, posture broken its just a 2s stop in deflect attack loop

>Instead you have far more movement and far more options to choose from when attacking, along with items and tools from your mechanical arm to utilize.

Nice meme, also you know that that arm its just objects in past games right? Also no meaninfull loot.

>Nice meme, posture broken its just a 2s stop in deflect attack loop
And stamina is borderline a non-existent issue if you have 1 or 2 items in your inventory, and renders you open to an attack if they break your guard through stamina drain.

>Nice meme, also you know that that arm its just objects in past games right? Also no meaninfull loot.
Wrong, actually, because the arm has several different functions based on the enemy in question, while you have access to other items from your inventory.

>Sorry but one time moves does not replace a secondary weapon with an actual moveset.
One time moves that you can immediately repeat one after the other? Are you a fucking idiot?

You need to deal certain amount of damage to “boss” enemies before you go for posture break. But desu I start to belive that there might be something going on with input delay.

To be honest the better you are at a souls game the worse you will be at sekiro. It works in the exact opposite way as souls would.

it has some of the same assets, and like I said it has souls elements, but it's genuinely different than other From games in a shitload of ways. bloodborne is an actual souls game, this is not

Are you blind or just dense? The moves in Sekiro fall under either latent abilities which are ALWAYS ACTIVE, or they are skills that you can swap in and out and activate with mere button presses and have no limits. Are you a retard? Yes, you are.

% of items found in the game are the same handful of trash consumables you were getting at the beginning of the game

No, some user in another thread claimed to be a journo and said that. And it makes sense to me, how else would IGN be able to say it's easier than souls?
Can''t prove it tho

Gameplay is awful and is literally just spam parry and Mikiri Counter to win.
At least despite how flawed Nioh can be it's combat is fun and complex and there's so many different styles, stances, spirits and weapons in the game to keep you entertained for hundreds of hours while this game I see myself dropping right after I beat it.

It is easier than Souls once you've gotten good at the combat, it's so easy you'll breeze through NG+ or just a new game like it's nothing whereas in Dark Souls you could still get fucked up on subsequent playthroughs.

The loot doesn't get tedious until like 200 hours in. I agree the loot needs an overhaul in the next one but the game itself was great.

There is nothing to fix. The grab works as intended, you're supposed to jump to avoid it or GIT GUD and don't dodge too early like a retard so you can iframe through it.
How else do you envision grab attacks working? It either grabs you or it doesn't. If it does, the animation has to snap the two models together so it moves the ogre's model towards you which results in the janky look.

There is just something missing with the game.

Mostly the fact dying feels more meaningless than ever because I dont give a fuck about money or experience points, nor do I can about the unseen aid. I feel more guilty I'm giving NPCs the plague than me losing my shit. Plus any item pickup outside of a prayer bead, guord seed or an item that prevents ghosts feels fucking meaningless.

Like I enjoy the combat alright, but it seems like fights either fall into perfectly parry the guy till death blow, space and heavy attack their whiffs to death, or just spam sword to instantly break their shield. Also the lack of attacks with the sword plus the trick weapons use a consumable makes it feels like my move pool is really shallow and the fun is supposed to come from just parrying correctly. But playing a constant parry game is defensive and gay as shit. And now with the skill that recovers health on death blow, I'm not even worreid about health outside of a miniboss.

The stealth can be fun, but once you trigger a bad guy, hiding behind/ontop a pagoda where they can't do shit till they de-aggro feels really broken. Plus putting enemies in your way that pretty much have to be stealth killed to reach a mini boss quickly and at full health is lame.

Like what is the thing thats supposed to keep me going? There so few RPG mechanics, I'm not "getting stronger" as I play, there are no other new play styles, the new weapons and crafting items go to an attack system that has limited uses per life. Just for the sake of new locals? I'm getting REALLY fucking sick of Pagodas and mountainsides.

>But playing a constant parry game is defensive and gay as shit
What, it's the exact opposite of defensive unless you fish for parries, but the game rewards you for constantly staying in the enemy's face, attacking them even if they deflect, doing chip damage when they're vulnerable and generally going all out with aggression. The parrying gives you a tool to negate damage while staying on the offense. This is in stark contrast with Souls which IS defensive, you wait for an enemy to attack, dodge and do the guranteed counter moves rinse and repeat.

It runs at 60

It's too hard for PC kiddies.

>But playing a constant parry game is defensive and gay as shit.
what's stopping you from being ultra-aggressive and deflecting anything the enemy attempts to counterattack with?
>Plus putting enemies in your way that pretty much have to be stealth killed to reach a mini boss quickly and at full health
oh, so the reason is because you're not good enough.
this is a you problem, not a game problem

I assume it's the bad hitboxes and camera problems.

ÁHAH PC FAGS ARE SO BAD AM I RIGHT GAMERS??? DARK SOULS 2 WAS TOTALLY NOT HARDER ON PC AND THEY STILL ROLLED THROUGH IT HOT DAMNdksalöda

I was really surprised I got stable 60fps on my 7 years old gtx660 on low settings.

Of course it's not retarded tracking. The people complaining about tracking are just DSP-tier bad and smash the dodge button as soon as they see an animation start and expect to be invincible

Idk where you're at in the game user, but I just beat the Armored dude on the bridge, and the whole point of the fight was to parry his swings.

When I fought lady butterfly I was pure aggro and that paid off, but I'll get thoroughly punished for being hyper aggressive like with the one armed Ninja where Wolf woke up, or basically any miniboss with a spear. And since most strong enemies can two shot you, the second you make one mistake, you're playing behind for basically the rest of the fight.

>is literally just
Erase yourself from existence, retard.

I wouldn't have imagined Niohfags to become this insufferable. That game eventually gets bland and bloated as fuck and is utterly forgettable, especially compared to any other Souls game (arguably even 2). Regardless of the options you have during combat, it's still an inferior experience.
Even putting aside an infinitely more interesting story, enemy design, music, and setting, the general feel of the visual and sound effects is better in Sekiro. The way the swords clash has a lot of weight to it, something that Nioh lacks.

t. played Nioh for hundreds of hours and across multiple save files

>oh, so the reason is because you're not good enough.
Nigga, tell me there is a viable option to the poison goblins on the way to the bridge where the armored dude is outside of stealth. Dead ass tell me you fought all fucking 4 of them individually each time time.

libcuck

I beat the game, which armored dude? One armed ninja actually rewards aggression, it's quite lucrative to dodge his thrusting attack instead of going for the mikiri counter because it lets you sneak several attacks in and many of his moves are interruptable with r1 swings too. Many spear enemies are the same but not all, Seven Spears is quite defensive for example. There's a good deal of variety but it DOES encourage and reward aggression in most fights.

Also, just because you get deflected doesn't mean your attacks are useless, deflected attacks still build posture damage, and they bait enemies into counter attacking which is easy to deflect and gives you even more posture damage. This game's not meant to be a you hit enemy once and empty your stamina meter mashing r1 when they're stunlocked affairs, it's meant to feel like a duel with an even opponent and how health/posture works reflects this since nothing you do while being aggressive is truly a waste it all builds up posture and even tiny chip damage makes a difference.

there seems to be an issue with certain controllers not working and a lack of ultrawide support also a lot of people shitting on the game due to difficulty
