Is it your GOTY?

Yes

I think mostly trash. This year peaks early.

Came out last year, fag.

Bannerlord will be my GOTY

I dont know

As a Red Dead 1 fan, it really is.

No

No way, fag

Eh. I liked RE2 more.

Feelin like it, yeah. Absolutely if it gets even decent DLC by year’s end.

Wow, that makes Sekiro look 10 years old. Fuck Japanese ware so far behind

I think DMC was better all-around. Man, if not for the fucking warping from the start, and the dogshit itemization, this would be another dark souls for me. The level design's great, but there's no tension nor reward. Could've been so fucking good, I live for that shit.

Yes, I doubt anything better is on its way this year.

Hey so I just got to Ashin castle should I go to the top of it or should I go to the underground section I found where the game began? Which one is optional?

>As a Red Dead 1 fan, it really is.
Same game, you've just developed a bias towards the game or developer

Maybe don't play on Xbox One S you fucking cuck

Not yet but it probably will be.

Where's the cool lightning/weather effects and mountable horse's huh?

The year just started. Even though I think the game was only a 7/10 it very well could be, i cant think of any other games I am heavily anticipating this year besides Halo infinite and wasteland 3 and both have a good chance to flop.

Nope

The year is 25% gone already.

Yes, the gameplay is amazing, it was kinda short but still a great experience with beautiful areas and some of the best boss fights I've ever faced.
I loved Ashina's castle in particular, the huge scale of it and the fact that you can entirely explore it and fight on its roofs is amazing.

They focus on gameplay, not glorified movies. All the tech in the world couldn't save RDR2 being exceptionally dull.

>horse's

It's GOTY for sure. It wasn't perfect but it was damn good. I bet the DLC will be great.

>The year just started.
It's not getting any better. The upcoming line up looks like shit.

Ashina's Castle is basically a Tenchu stage.

Wrong, not even close. The story and characters are great in RDRD2. Everything in terms of actual gameplay in RDR2 got slowed the fuck down to a disgusting crawl. Everything you do, from being forced to slowly walking in the camp to looting enemy animations to carrying pelts limit are fucking the definition of anti-fun, holy fuck. Then you have retarded shit like Arthur putting his weapon on the horse every fucking time and resetting your weapon wheel and a million other "realistic sim" cancers throughout the game that made it a chore to play. Red Dead Redemption at least tried being a fucking video game, even if it had some long animations like skinning shit, it was to a much less degree. I imagine Red Dead 3 or GTAVI will have you going to the fucking bathroom if your shit meter gets too high. It's too fucking much. The setting in RDR was more of the iconic western too, which I enjoyed more than the RDR2.

>Demon's Souls rehash #6
>Goty
Probably yes considering how retarded the industry is, but definitely not my goty

what the fuck is that scene
Also, does anyone know how to get back Kuro's charm? I gave it to him in my NG+ run and now I can't revive

Yet will still be selling and played long after the dust has settled on Sekiro. Sad

You didn't play it.

Nice, thank you
I thought I fucked up the run

So far, yeah

Attached: get dunked.webm (960x540, 2.94M)

woooooOOOOOO

I am so fucking bad at this game
I've beaten every souls game multiple times, but I just can't get Sekiro, I would complain about being underlevelled but I know there are no levels in this game, so it's just that things do ludicrous damage and I can't get the parry timing down, especially if there are groups

also question, I got the bell for Buddha and went there before fighting the chained ogre, and that is the area I'm stuck in
I can't even come close to beating the miniboss with the polearm past the bridge with the 2 shield guys (even after stealth killing everyone in the area before engaging him), then I found I could skip him via jumping into the water, and I'm feeling like I'm not ready for the shit here, the run to the actual boss has about 15 guys leading up to it, and the bossfight itself has 7 additional mooks with it, I tried asking the samurai guy for help and he got his shit pushed in within about 30 seconds, leaving me alone

have I gone somewhere I shouldn't yet? am I missing some key tool that will make all of this easier? or am I just utter shit at the game? because honestly it feels like the latter, but I've NEVER had that feeling in a souls game, I can always figure something out or practice timing, but here I can't seem to get it

What is that sword?

prses L1 really fast and don't let enemies flank you

Ok? I bet that's also how you justify your obsession with marvel capeshit - popularity.

1. you can leave
2. spear counter for spearfag
3. git gud at parry

For the shinobi hunter, you want the skill "Mikiri Counter". For Jouzu the Drunkard, I always rushed with the NPC to take out the mooks first.

Being food at a souls game doesn't help here. I honestly feel like having played Ninja Gaiden Black and DMCV recently helped be get through this easier. It's very fast paced like them.

For the Drunkard, I suggest taking out the mooks, then leaving, return for a stealth hit on Drunkard and then go get the man's aid. Impossible to fail like that.

the fat guy is just a mini boss
and that area is optional, you can do it later

There's a skill to parry thrusts that will help against that first guy, but besides that, you have pretty much everything you need. You don't HAVE to do that area yet, but may as well do it now. I had troubles at pretty much everything you did, all I can say is that it's a real good time to start getting timings down. For fatty, you can always go in and kill the mooks, run away enough to reset fatty, then talk to the NPC and go in 2v1. Try to get sneak attacks on those mini-bosses for deathblows too.

Oh, and fatty isn't the boss, there's an actual boss past him.

Yeah for sure. I adore this game.

Tied with RE2 and DMC5

Maybe, just finished immortal severance ending earlier

I still feel the same way I did when I first saw the teaser; I just don't like the setting that much. Even though it has arguably the best combat to date and back to an interconnected word again, I still prefer Souls and Bloodborne

Neither is optional, but you can do the underground before the castle, even though it’s recommended to do it after the castle.

I think RDR2 wasn't a good game, but it sure as fuck doesn't beat FFXV for me.

If you just want to trivialise the bosses you can always abuse running.

Its the GOTD

This. And I truly think more people will realize it as time goes on.

NOPE,but i admit once you leave Ashina castle the game pciks up a notch in atmosphere.
Now that i can explore so many new areas im curious where to go next.

Still not to fond of the souls style combat system and think this game trully could have been GOTY if FROM had made a brand new engine for it.

Anybody know How long did FROM work on making Sekiro?

When I witnessed this, I knew it was my GOTY.

So does it stop being a linear hallway? I'm currently at the Castle, and the lineartity has been my biggest complaint.

No, it does not. It gets worse the further in you go.

>uses firecrackers
>misses half his parries
no wonder people took 30 hours to beat this 15 hour game. those blue guys go down in 2 seconds and btw they're not fun to fight and neither are any of the mobs despite some of the guys in the divine palace

What's your point? It doesn't matter if ut's 1/10th of the game. It's ~10 hours of content. If you're actually telling me I cannot extrapolate a pattern after 10 hours you can go jump into a vat of black widow spiders.

I can't beat Sword Saint Isshin so this game is objectively terrible

My GOTY is either gonna be Iceborne or Classic WoW, sorry

Completely accurate list, based

loli told me to look for a priest in the cave
did she mean the dead guy with the scroll or what?
and when do i get to kill the snek? and game of the decade btw

So far, yeah, but there are other games I'm looking forward to that could dethrone it pretty easily. When/if Ion Maiden ever comes out, that has a strong chance of beating it for my Game of the Year, if by a miracle Deltarune does, that could too and Death Stranding is just such a wildcard that I can't discount it.

These games could still end up crappy and not dethrone it, but I imagine at least one will.

>Discover Bottomless pit and Ashina depths
Now this is good atmosphere.
I admit i was wrong about saying this game has shit atmosphere.
You just have to earn your way to them instead of having choices early on in the game like souls games normally do.

Has some good hidden bosses too apparently After getting further into the game past ashine castle,i can saftly give it a 6.5/10.
If this games pulls a Bloodborne and give us some awesome ass DLC then it can easily be bumped up to a 8,but that's it because the music is lacking compared to FROM best(Demon Souls,Bloodborne) and it still uses the souls style mechanics and wasn't made to be its own thing when it should have stood out from souls games.

Can anyone tell me how to go deeper into Ashina Depths?
Before you jump down to snake eyes, there are some platforms in the previous area with grapple points,but the last grapple point doesn't lead to anything deeper,but implies you can come back up from some where

This is the only time I forgave the nippon setting. FROM's art team really know how to make aesthetics.

I beat the bull on my first try. I'm not top tier, but I don't suck. I take my time and look for secrets.

Also you didn't do all that in 2 hours. If you did, you're the retard who sucks at games. You treat them like a point-scoring exercise instead of an experience. You blow through everything so you can pathetically anonymously gloat on Yea Forums and miss half of the game as a result. That's of course if you weren't so obviously full of shit.

Sekiro? More like SeKINO.

How do you kill the mummies in the main hall?

S E E T H I N G

Yes

thanks fren
i see owl at the top so i guess i have to fight him and i guess he has kuro
nice
i guess i missed the snake thing i'll go back
and is there any loot around the place where you stab the snakes eye? i forgot which area it was

BOTW has the same issue this game kind of has also user:

WASTED POTENTIAL
Both games could use much more polish.
Again gimpy Souls style combat isnt really fun and engauging like DMC5,NINJA GAIDEN BLACK AND 2,BAYONETTA, METAL GEAR SOLID REVENGENCE,NIER ETC.............

Yes most of these game rely on invincibilty frames in there moves,but having janky,inconsistent ass hitboxes and detection or having my lock on break becasue certain chracters are to fast or big is annoying.

Again game would have benefited heavily if FROM had design a new engine for Sekiro from the ground up.
If its not suppose to be a souls game then DONT use the SAME FUCKING ENGINE and ASSETS from all the previous souls games(all 5 of them).

yeswhat happend to the far right monkey?

>Also you didn't do all that in 2 hours.
I did, admittedly I did backtrack to Hirata since I missed the feather in there and the secret chamber in the main hall, and I did backtrack in the outskirts too since I missed the Tengu sidequest as well.
>You blow through everything so you can pathetically anonymously gloat on Yea Forums
Oh no, I'm the first one to have said multiple times how I played the game wrong all along until the very end or marvel at all the things I missed, but unlike you, I didn't just open my mouth to say bullshit like the game being too linear after just one area and a half.
So sit the fuck down and play the fucking game before you spout nonsense on an anonymous imageboard and get buttblasted when people tell you to stop being a fucking retard.

rdr2 is overated shit
it's was good when i first played it but eh
8/10

I was really impressed by sekiro
i was afraid it would be shit since ds3 was garbage

More like 6/10.

You must have forgotten about DMCV, RE2RE, and Sekiro user! Thats okay though, we all forget things sometimes.

i dunno
was pretty good for rockstar and i liked most of it besides sadie

It's invisible

I didn't even say the game was too linear. I asked if it stops being too linear. So at best I said ashina/hirata are too linear (which they objectively fucking are) and then asked if the entire game is like that. Hold still while I drip acid down your urethra.

This is how retarded you sound

really? i don't even remember killing it
maybe i accidentally did it lol

>So at best I said ashina/hirata are too linear
Ashina outskirt connects THREE different areas, with two of those connected by two different shortcuts, how is that linear?

Agreed.
Begining of the game is a bit dull,but once you progress you start to see that true beauty of Feudal Japan and all its mysteries and myths

will farming sen and buying the attack power level up mask ruin the game?
even 1 extra attack power makes a lot of difference

I dunno. My playthrough so far has been going from one stealth playground to the next. There has been very little if any leeway in order. It's a to b over and over again. The most nonlinearty I've experienced is the option to forgo Ahsina for Hirata, which itself is another series of stealth arenas separated by hallways that follow a specific order.

Lads, my first playthrough took me 48 hours. Should I kill myself?

Killed giraffe, lady butterfly and armoured warrior back to back but cannot for the life of me kill snake eyes in the swamp and gun diet

jump and kick them in the face when they do the grab

Attack power's increase is diminishing, first upgrade is +20%, second +16,5 etc

what the fuck is the giraffe? did i miss something?
and use puppet on one of the cannon guys
and use the spear on snake eyes

So I finally beat Genichiro at the tower, talked to Kuro, Emma and Isshin. I apparently have three destinations to investigate. First one is the temple which I already know for doing it before Genichiro. Next one is some depths at the well, do I need to kill that sphere headless there or am I in wrong direction? Third one is some tree near the castle, but havent found it, where is it?
Also, when does exactly all that obscure eavesdrop and item shit start for the endings? I dont want to lockout myself yet from any of them and I could already eavesdrop Kuro?

He kinda follows you around, you can see his footsteps appear behind you then you can strike.

I accidentally bumped into him then hit r1 and killed him.

I just hate the deflection mechanic. It's so unsatisfying to use and it's not enjoyable to constantly have your attacks not connect because the AI says so. Really not a fan of this twist on souls combat. The worst aspect of it is that it boils down all the bosses to timing your reactions to everything because the combat is so one note. As a result the damage is also way higher and it just causes the difficulty curve to be totally wack. I wish it were better than bloodborne but it basically unlearned the lessons of bloodborne, that being that dodging attacks is fun as opposed to guarding.

Mistranslation, the actual name is Kirin.

>and it's not enjoyable to constantly have your attacks not connect because the AI says so
Lol, you're just dumb, posture damage is what matters and your attacks are useful whether they connect or no.
Want guaranteed HP damage? Use tools nigger, don't just complain the game is one note when you yourself are too dumb to actually understand it.

I'm fighting owl in the memory so I assume I'm pretty far into the game, I know how to play it, I just don't like it.

There is no way for the game to take only 15 hours for anyone on first playthrough.
And 30h is if you take the short path by betraying Kuro. It's easily 40-50h with the good ending path.
That is, if you kill all bosses and minibosses I mean. Obviously some retarded ass run where you skip stuff does not count.

it's good for a Fromsoft game, but it's not the best game of the past 3 months.

I died like 40 fucking times to O'rin this bitch was the hardest enemy in the whole game to me

Not even best action game, that would be DMC5

If you've got both snake hearts you can do the "return" ending, if not you can either find the second one or keep playing however you want.
If you've got both hearts, and "holy chapter:infested" go talk to the Divine Child in senpou.

Literally redefined the genre, every other attempt looks bland in comparison and sekishit was not the exception.

I thought it was an overall pretty great action adventure game, but it was also underwhelming and didn't fully live up to my expectations.
There are other games this year I consider to be much better.

Best moment in the game right there, a fucking genius came up with that idea

>Literally redefined the genre
Imagine thinking this about a game in the 2010s lmao.

jumpkicks are viable against both sweeps and grabs right?

I don't think I'd say it redefined the genre, but it did come back and prove that DMC is still the king of action games.
However, Sekiro was never going to be the exception because it's not even the same genre as DMC, Bayonetta, Ninja Gaiden, MGR and so on.
The Sekiro VS DMC5 discussion is literally retard-tier Yea Forums talk and it's completely worthless.
It's like saying Divinity Original Sin 2 is a better strategy game than Age of Empires because the camera is the same.

just as i expected, but it's a Soulsy From game by the same director as Des and Das1 and ymfah recommends it so i'm gonna buy it
2/3 were by a different director and are basically fan-made games

The Mushin arts are not good.
From fucked up combat arts because all the most powerful ones that cost spirit emblems and all the endgame super mushin arts are just mediocre at their very best.

Don't listen to the shitters. I have garbage reflexes and barely play action games and I'm getting through it just fine.

You'll be just fine, user.
I believe in (You).

im just at chained ogre and im about to give up

i beat dark souls 3 with under 10 deaths and this game is just ripping my asshole apart, also the chained ogres leap grab is fucking impossible to dodge, he just teleports his ass in whatever direction i jump

I'm at Ashina Castle just after the Dragon boss and this dude is asking me to help some soldiers on the castle's outskirts. how the fuck do i do?

Unironically user, I sucked dick at most of souls' harder bosses and I actually learned to git gud at sekiro. i think i suddenly realised how bullshit everyone's top 10 soulsborne bosses lists really are.

The only ones bitching are people who just play it like souls and never adjust. If you spend a small amount of time practicing the combat/mechanics you'll be fine.

The bridge between ashina outskirts and the castle has been repaired, you can go there by grappling a kite in the sky or going to to the old grave idol

chained ogre is one of those enemies who you can just hold b against and sprint around all day. all of his attacks must have a good 2 or 3 seconds of frame startup. the strategy i imply is that i deflect all of his non-grab attacks and then run backwards or jump backwards when i see that grab is coming.

no how do i give the loli a book?
theres fucking 2 snakes?

That enemies grab attacks is broken. Don’t give up. I’ve beaten the game and I can tell you that the Ogre is the most bullshit enemy

source?

>i beat dark souls 3 with under 10 deaths
this is the problem
it's not a souls game, learn how to use your tools, gather info, enemies are weaknesses or get shredded by a specific strat.
also no boss in the game is weak to the "dodge the flurry of attacks and get 2 swords hits in" thing
learn how to position yourself with infinite running
learn how to deflect
stealth minibosses for half their HP whenever possible
when in doubt, spam L1

you fucking SHITTER

i'm about the fight owl btw
i hope i didn't miss anything

Still Resident Evil 2 so far. Maybe pokemon sword will be good but I doubt it

Considering dropping it because of the difficulty to be honest.

I'm getting older and my reflexes were never that great. I like when games push me and make me feel invested, but this game feels more like I'm slamming my head against a brick wall. The fact that it took me like 10 tries to beat the giant mini-boss makes me question if it's really worth it.

Here's one for you, would you rather they made sekiro or did a PC remaster of BB?

I think the issue people have with Combat Arts is not understanding when to use them. The second Mushin Art is pretty strong if you actually use it during recovery frames of humanoid bosses.

it's the worst modern from soft game save armored core 5.

Fushigiri isnt a real weapon like your main Katana.

why do japanese dubs sound so perfect lads?

After True Ending, yes.

>tfw sekiro looks like a masterpiece in terms of story, atmosphere and world design but i'm too shit to even make it past the chained ogre
fuck, guess i'll just go watch a playthrough on youtube

Ah Seto Kaiba and the enemy from last Saturdays Jojo.

Delusion. It's the best game in years.

>Mushin arts
That's the fifth skill tree though.

just hit him a couple times and dodge to the side when he starts to attack
he's also weak to fire so use the flame vent, two shots will light him on fire and stun him for a while

oh nice thank you
i really liked that boss
i thought i explored every bit of water but i guess i forogot about that one
there needs to be a checklist

If you didn't get one shot by every boss with 20 second load times yeah I guess it would be.

what does the snakes heart have to do with the loli?

these people should be burned at the stake
tfw no powers to become the god emperor

she likes persimmons
the hearts look like persimmons

sekiro
but snoy should sell steam bloodborne
there getting rid of all there old exclusives anyway

i'm sure that i'll eventually be able to beat him if i keep trying, but then i'll just get stuck on the next miniboss i encounter, not to mention the real bosses

i should just accept that i'm shit at parrying, always sucked at it in the souls games too

I loved everything about Sekiro except the starting cutscenes being sloppy and the fucking schizophrenia of an OST. It goes from DS trash to Japanese kino and then back to DS trash and ends with a fucking BB theme. What the fuck was that.

Shake Zula, the mic rulah, the old schoolah

Wow you're a rude dude.

oh god
evil ending
i kinda figured when i read the description
what kind of monster could do that

you shouldnt be parrying the ogre anyway
pretty much all he does are grabs and you cant parry them

Nah, its number 3 behind dmc5 and re2

the only game (barring some out-of-nowhere indie like baba is you) that could beat sekiro is doom eternal. if doom eternal doesnt have arena fights and its truly an old school shooter it might top sekiro but if not i think its safe to say sekiro is goty

Attached: 1553511942792.jpg (635x413, 25K)

Either it or DMC5. I can't really chose nor do I want to.

Help out your friend, he only wants one thing and you have the means for it.

the ost is pretty good
actually inspired instead of ds3 trash

Turns her into being able to carry real dragon blood. Instead of killing the little lord, you decide to have him be absorbed by the rice girl. You and her decides to travel to the west (India/China) to return the dragon heritage to it´s orgin. Sequel bait.

it's for the good ending actually

She wants to eat them to become a cradle for the divine heir

Jokes on you it's the happiest ending for the characters involved...Although who knows about other people on the planet. (Because something is just sent elsewhere).

AC7 was but DMCV wasn't.

Im at the owl and Im bored
just watched all the endings on youtube and I think Im done with this game
Honestly I think the lack of rpg elements is to blame. It feels like a stripped down souls game

oh how do i do this? about to fight owl and trying to not ruin the game because i know i won't be able to replay it much for a while
sounds like a sequel or big dlc setup
hopefully if it does have a sequel it would be great

obviously the fuck not. why do you fags seem to think just because you liked a game, that means its automatic goty?

its like going out and buying a $60 giant turd, smearing it on yourself, then said everyone should praise shit smearing because it was fun.

Just do it. Man up.
Use oil and fire against the ogre.
You'll hate yourself for watching a playthrough, the game is so fucking kino you have to experience it yourself.

how long is the game after owl btw?
i wanted a completly blind playthough but this game seems really easy to fuck up

But the ogre is literally the only mob in the game that revolves around grabs. Any other enemy at most has one type of grab that they rarely use.
Just get past it dude.

You know how divine confetti is like "LOL YOU CAN HIT GHOSTS" but you can already hit ghost so never use it

FUCKING USE IT

It's a huge damage boost vs any spirit or anything casting spoopy at you like the Headless or that guy that throws skull at you forever

if you havent fought owl yet then you can still get any ending
if you really want to get it then look at a guide, there's something you have to do right after beating owl

Are there any bosses before Ashina besides Monk who I killed? I didn't go back yet but when I had 1 less upgrade of damage/life I died like 10 times trying to figure out parry timings but my stamina/damage seems so ass it was frustrating as shit. So I killed Monk/Butter/Horse obviously anyone else? Is there more to the monk area that I saw or does it open up because all I could find was some Westaboo I kicked off a ledge and some dead ends?

Take and eat the rice she gives you, come back for more, after three or four times you will find her snoring half alseep. Interact and talk to her. Go to Mt Kongou and dive into a pond next to the shrine (look it up in a video or something). Give her the book. Kill the White snake and go to the underground snake temple and mist raven/puppet the monkey and get the other heart. Senpou main temple shrine, go left, a cave, slide/crouch into one of the lower openings and pick up the last book. You can still do it after you kill Owl.

>underground snake temple
where is that
i thought i explored everywhere every little bit of the map

it's next to where the big monkey is

Yes, what should I collect before going to Ng+

Is genichiro supposed to be hard?
Beat him in a couple of tries and thought he was quite easy. Shame about the flash counter that I couldn't pull off.

I actually beat him during the prologue on NG and nobody believes me

Attached: 1539607669235.jpg (663x579, 38K)

Get all the prosthetic upgrades you can, make sure you got 38 beads as the last two are locked behind the Shura ending.

He's more or less the Vergil 2 of this game, make of that what you will.
Took me five tries to beat him, but I enjoyed his fight immensely.

Im very bad at deflect so atm im having trouble haven't tried yet after the first 30 minute or so set but I got a upgrade from the side area and so im sure I can do more damage/stamina damage to him.

I just don't like deflect I do it late and I don't get it but when I react to block I get it. Its like there is this little bit of delay that fucks with me and I haven't grown past the visible reaction to the mental one. I don't think this game is for me since that mechanic is pretty much the core of all Humanoid fights but I wanna atleast beat Ashina before I put it down.

38 beads?? I only have 28(seventh prayer necklace )

the first guardian ape? i explored all around his boss room and did't see anything

Hmmm, maybe I messed up the count then, anyway, if you're left with two beads hanging in there you're good to go, you can also find the ones you've missed in the next playthroughs so it's no biggie.

Its opposite the ape arena. past the monkeys and keep going down

I just got to him and I died like 3 times. I blame not being really focused, I got his first deathblow though. Gonna come back to it later when I'm feeling less shitty. And then spend 2 hours on it because I'm shit.
I just had that moment with the miniboss before him. I thought I understood deflect, I've had a decent sense of timing, but then the dude who gets his posture raised super quickly felt like a coinflip when I deflected his quick 2-hit. I blame that on the aforementioned "unfocus" though, I feel like I've had a decent rhythm with the other bosses.

there are 10 prayer necklaces you can get, so 40 beads

how long does their shift last?

when you kill all his friends he will never be able to land and will die from starvation

that was goat
he got me

back from the shrine? i couldn't find a vid for it but i'll try to find it when i get back

10 gourds feels weird since you have 3 pellets
should have been either 8 or 12 gourds

It is. And its better than all games I played last year and the year before that too. Though if I'm being honest there wasn't much competition. Still, its kino. So its my "Game of 2017-2019" so far. I will see what else comes out this year though. Maybe something else will wow me.

So far it is for me and i'm not sure exactly what is going to be coming out by the end of the year that would top it for me.

WOOOO

Buster Skruggs is great.

WOOOOOOOOO

I need to find a mod that changes that sound clip to the goofy falling noise.

Yikes but most importantly cringe

no u

>not changing it to leeroy jenkins

The only bad one there is Owl because of his stupid Sanic shit and that awful arena. Half of the fights in the game are only remotely difficult because of the janky ass camera getting hitched on random posts and corners

>Just got to the last boss
>4 (FOUR) fucking phases
Getting real tired of this meme 2bh. I remember how people were assblasted about 3 phases with Sister Friede. Now watch as Miyazaki puts 5 fucking phases to a boss fight in his next game as well as adds another boss into the room just for fun.

Attached: 0What_did_you_say.png (603x331, 168K)

the first and last phases are really short

The major difference is that Sword Saint's phases can be taken down much quicker if you play well. Especially phase 1.

there needs to be a separate multiplayer dual mode

With the posture meter, you can actually blaze down bosses once you git gud. The Genchiro Phase and Isshin Phase 1 are a joke

HESITATION
IS
DEFEAT

no ds3 was trash and ds2 was well look at it

I honestly love the balance in this even if it isn't perfect. As a scrub you can chip down the health to make posture breaking easier (or even avoid it altogether) but if you know what you're doing and play aggressively you can end a lot of fights much quicker.

>phase 1
fire up the base cannon

Honestly, they should have spiced it up a little.
Make enemies with high posture but little HP and viceversa instead of just making everyone have a shitload of posture, that would also make statuses more worth it and certain prosthetics more relevant due to their focus on stats.

>you can chip down the health to make posture breaking easier
Wait, is this really a thing? Does getting the bosses health lower increase posture damage or something?

Attached: 7spears yeeted.webm (650x364, 2.88M)

wrong

just play it, you dumb dotabab

I can't remember exactly if it increases posture damage or just slows down posture recovery but it's something along those lines iirc.

>that fucking kick

Attached: 1533605179867.gif (297x202, 1.21M)

Not shura dippy, that last 2 bead was the missable section where you have to eavesdrop on emma and isshin right after beating owl the first time

>hear a bunch of people crying about this and the dojo lone shadow
>get to them and almost instantly recognize the mooks are there for YOU to make the fight easier
Do they just forget puppeteer and stealth candy exist or what

>do they just forget puppeteer exist
yes

It sucks since kicking him down doesn't actually kill him and he just respawns back until you kill him the "right" way.

ROBERRRRRRRRRRRRRRT

>10 tries to beat the giant mini-boss
how are people this bad

I was having trouble with him until I realized I had 4 prayer beads and could up my vit. Did that and suddenly I got him my next first try.
I really feel like posture increases matter more than people give them credit for in this game

Sekiro > AC7 > DMC5

Yes.It's better than RE2 by virtue of the combat alone.

Nah. It's a 7.5/10 that is okay but not great.

All Soulsborne games are better.

Probably

okay i just got the snakes organ from the cave but it blocked me in, what am i supposed to do now?
can i kill the snake?

I'm really liking this double standard being exposed. If gameplay is all that matters, Sekiro shits on every other Souls game.

I tried about 15 times to beat the chained ogre, thinking it was a boss. When I got the the shinobi hunter and realised they were just normal enemies I dropped the game.

Getting one shot because you didn't pull off pefectly timed combo parry isn't fun for me.

At some point, gettin' gud just becomes banging your head against a wall and you have to walk away. I pirated it so nevermind.

Attached: 285229-20.jpg (450x450, 89K)

RE2 and this are top so far

Can Sekiro beat the good huntah?

not him but if you're good at parrying the fight is a joke. You don't even ened to damage her vit, just parry and she'll kill herself.

Seems like a bug, close the game and check the sound folder in you program files. Maybe language FSB files are missing or just restart the game

>DS3 after DS2
Oh hell no.

i couldnt parry her for shit but i was good at parrying everything else

i hope dragon's dogma 2 isn't shit like dmc5

That's strange because I found her pattern pretty predictable

seethat's like 90% of her fight, you jsut spam parry when she spins at you. when she's far away she will always zoom attack to you too. Not hard, just use your ears to get the timing down.

Don't cheese that fight, you only fight her once. I miss her bros...

i kinda wanted wolf to be a kunoichi
anyone have any genderbent pics?
why the fuck was wolf not a girl
damn it
would have been great
and the character model could have been tiny

Sekiro was surprisingly lighthearted and had a lot more humor than other Souls games. Might be because Miyazaki didn't write the dialogue (did he do item descriptions though?).

Worked for this game though.

looks like shit

miyahacki didn't ruin this game thankfully
proves that from doesn't need him
it's usually the editors that make the good stuff

No. RE2 and Metro Exodus are far better. But GOTY will easily be either Doom Eternal, Jedi: Fallen Order, or Ghost of Tsushima if it's out this year.

Nioh is good. It’s easy compared to Sekiro though.

She's also an incredibly easy boss. Keep at it but I think you'll get stuck again very soon.

So far no, we'll see how the DLC shapes out, if at all, but DMC5 certainly performed above it. Sekiro is very fun, yes, but not quite there. And then there's the fact we have almost 3/4 of the year ahead of us.

It's 2nd for me

1. RE2
2. Sekiro
3. Outward
4. DMC5
5. DOA6

It's going to be hard to top, it's certainly my favorite so far.

The whole weeb atmosphere does nothing for me though so I'm only enjoying the combat.

RE2make left me wanting more
Sekiro didn't

I suppose I'll finally give it a go, any tips?

don't forget what you learned, stay aggressive and don't spam

Yes. DMC5 and RE2make were disappointments to how well the best of their respective games in their franchise played.

how could you enjoy a game with 1 (one) weapon

the fuck happend? the alpha was really hard

I mean I’m a shitter and I was able to finish Nioh without much trouble, the only boss I had really significant trouble with was the hydra at the end and that was due to camera fuckery.

I died 50 times or more at the first boss in Sekiro (lady butterfly) in Nioh if you keep moving you’re good.

If I get anything else that'll probably top it though. I'm too old and tired for the souls thing anymore.
