isshin and any mini boss

Did DSP get filtered by Owl 1 yet

In the context of Sekiro, three reasons.

1. Immortality causes people to "stagnate". They get set in their ways, grow more and more extreme. In the context of the Sengoku Jidai this means constant, unending war.

2. All the methods of immortality have major drawbacks, except for the Dragons Blood which just has a major drawback for everyone ELSE.

3. The game is steeped in Buddhist themes, and Buddhism as a religion teaches that life is suffering and the goal is to *escape* this world by transcending it.

casuals don't even reach Owl

t. died 20 times to Gyobu Oniwa and 6 to Lady Butterfly

next up is Genny la Carogna (bull took me 3 tries, fuck the camera to be honest)

This is Sekiro's actual casual filter.

Can litteraly be beaten by running around him in circles and baiting attacks. Sorry but no OP.

People complaining about Ogre are much more laughable

NATHAN FIELDER, I GRADUATED FROM ONE OF ASHINA'S TOP DOJOS WITH REALLY GOOD GRADES

meme. When you first meet Gyo, he charges out on his horse, announces his name, and that he will be killing you. Like a Samurai. Because he is one.

The english dub is uh... interesting. But Gyo is one of the few VA's to really sell his role. Or so I hear because I left Japanese dialogue on.

Easier than ogre

Not really. Really fun and satisfying fight though. These kinds of fights are what Sekiro is best at.

He sounds like the "go away I'm playing Minecraft" kid in English
It's awful

zoomer spotted

lads, question. if the sculptor turns into that demon thing, can you not upgrade/get your arm changed with things?

How the fuck do you beat the Demon of Hatred?

whistle

I have been, but what do you do with his fire whip attacks? Parrying them does damage, and I don't know how to dodge them reliably

>what do you do with his fire whip attacks?
it's a sweep, just jump, but later than you think

I mean his regular attack combo. It's a diagonal swipe, another swipe, a stomp, and another swipe

>implying DSP is ever making it to the Owl

KEN-SAMA

I'm on isshin and he's a fucking cunt, he really is a step above hirata owl and demon of hate. before I get back to it tomorrow is it worth the time to grind precious bait to complete the carp noble quest? And is it worth doing an ashura play through to fight Emma and regular isshin?

is the purification ending the good ending?

>implying casuals get past the ogre, let alone Genichiro and Guardian Ape

he beat him today

darksydephil beat gyobu faster than you

isshin is way easier than demon of hatred. just be confident in attacking him

the fight plays out like a classic samurai fight

Sekiro can still do it on his own since he's the sculptor from the past or something.

>named his horse Onikage
fucking poser

Because kuro's immortality gives innocent people dragon cancer? And owl kinda asks it for selfish reason and hes not hiding it.

He beat him 3rd try

>3rd try

Why do you guys watch him? It seems like everyone cares what DSP does on a daily basis. Don't you realize the reason twitch allows him to continue his bullshit is that he is a straight white dude who is utterly pathetic and makes everyone else look bad? Same goes for people like asmongold and even Ninja, summit1g, and shroud when it comes down to it. They prop up the literal worst people possible to give bad role models to children. Same goes for twicth thots. Or do you actually believe that twitch is a meritocracy and that the numbers aren't manipulated?

I don't get paid to play the game all day

Ogor and Butterfly are the only casual filters since they’re early in the game.

By the time people get to ape and double trouble, they’re invested.

Nah demon of hate was easy, he's slow as fuck and is constantly making space so you can recover when you do get hit. Just have umbrella shield in back pocket to whip out when he does his ranged. Sword saint is a bitch because the pressure is always on and you have to pretty much perfect it and rely on resurrection because if you try and chug you pretty much always get instantly two tapped.

Haha nope. Did demon in about 6 goes. Ishinn took me a full day.

All this boss filters is complete retards that haven't tried to block once the entire game.

what happens if you use the mortal blade on the tutorial guy when he asks? does it lock you out of anything?

Sculptor leaves his tools, so Sekiro just does his own arm mods at that point, given he's been watching the Sculptor do it all game.

Only thing you're missing out on is dialogue (e.g. for upgrading the Finger Whistle with the Malcontent ring, giving him sake, etc.)

I didn’t die to Lone-Shadow Masanaga 10 times though and never complained about any boss

>Or do you actually believe that twitch is a meritocracy and that the numbers aren't manipulated?
the only thing twitch does is push women and "minorities"
they dont give a shit about straight white dudes

it's just that most twitch viewers would rather watch someone who is entertaining e.g. straight white dudes, not some boring woman, brown person or tranny

So is Genichiro like the Gascoigne of Sekiro?
I just beat his ass and I feel like I've mastered the game.

> from software sucks!
> fuck you, from soft!
> duuuuh fanboys fuck you
This game broke dsp

This. Demon is tricky because the camera fucks up and he has that "sweep" which one shots and good luck guessing it's a sweep until you've died a few times.

However sprinting round his back, avoiding his stomps and then using the umbrella and malcontent in later rounds solves it.

Ishinn is something else. He has a perma-guard except for minute openings post perilous attacks and you have to work at his posture which regens far faster than yours so you have to learn perfect parries. Then yes he punishes healing with that stupid gun or teleport.

>is it worth the time to grind precious bait to complete the carp noble quest?

Pretty sure bait is just lying around. No need to grind for it. Worth getting the scales just for the Lapis Lazuli, as you can only get 6 of those per playthrough (and the pieces of the dragon mask, if you're running out of worthwhile things to spend skill points on).

They do push straight white dudes. Just the worst examples of straight white dudes who only care for money and are completely "urbanized".

context matters. but in reality people afraid and religion brainwashed to understand what it will lead to
people going from 30 life expectancy to even 45 created basis for civilization we have now
with expectancy of 200-300 years we will make solar system our own. with 600-900 near stars won't be a problem.

It gives you infinite-use shinobi drug (commit suicide)

Killing him doesn't impact anything else as far as I can tell.

>and I feel like I've mastered the game.
depends how good are you at souls games, I suck at it so some bosses were trouble after him.

Gascoigne is far more kino but yeah. Genichiro is the best fight on the game by far. He feels fair but hard and you should manage without becoming truly stuck.

The one and only actual casual filter in this game is not dying from boredom from LB spam.

Attached: 1554288032752.jpg (187x233, 11K)

You get a reusable suicide pill.

Ishinn tests you on that. Somewhat poorly they made the final boss the first one you have to manage your own posture on.

>you have to work at his posture which regens far faster than yours so you have to learn perfect parries

If you hold block your posture regens super fast. I think it's on one of the loading screen tips rather than a tutorial pop-up, as a lot of people don't seem to know this.

It's how the 4 items in sekiro work: version, permanent version.

Yeah that's obvious but ishinn is far beyond that. You need to keep on him to get his quick posture regen to stop so have to limit your own just sitting there in guard time.

That’ll be emma

Are you going to make a new thread every time you finally beat a boss?

Is there a yellow gourd anywhere in the game? There's four element/statuses in the game (burn, terror, poison and shock) but shock seems to be the only one that doesn't have a reusable version.

Possibly being saved for Tomoe DLC?

I did the Shura ending first and i almost gave up on the last boss

Sekiro
As in if you like sekiro you are a casual

Why is Sekiro such a manlet?

Haven't played that ending. After i completed ishinn i dropped the game. Something about the game was ultimately boring and with how hard ishinn was it made it not worthwhile.

Stfu nintentoddler lmao

Now on new game + im 4 attack power and 2 vitality lower than my friend that did a diferent ending

Real answer: so you can see your opponents. Same reason everyone has oddly long arms.

Funny thing is it only became a filter for Zoomers. Even children could beat it back then, no one particularly liked it after the first playthrough, it was just seen as an useless chore/unskippable tutorial. Today people are dropping the game because they can't get through it

Attached: fallout.jpg (1280x720, 148K)

Is that the temple of trials? It is shit because certain builds are fucked out the gate.

You had to make an extremely unviable build to not be able to beat it. Really, game did you a favor for not wasting more of your time since you certainly wouldn't survive outside

I can't recall it now but it was probably an int/char build. Fallout 2 was the low point of the series for me. I haven't played 4 but:
1>3>NV>tactics>2

If you had int/char you could literally walk away from all the enemies, the only unskippable enemy (as far as I remember) is the last tribal, and you can persuade him to let you through without a fight with char/speech/int

How does reading a guide actually help with that fight? You still have to fight well and get the timings right.

We're talking decades ago now. I just remember ants swarming me and there being fuck all i could do.

>beat O'rin on my second try
people actually found her difficult?

You should try it again, I think it would change your view on things, it's really a better game than Tactics, 3 and New Vegas. One and two are equals in my books, 2 has more content though

How good is Gil Toss? Eh I mean Sen Throw?

>Jim Cuckling dropped the game on Owl because he has an "impossible to react to one hit kill attack"
You are right, he is the casual filter.

Without giving you the “I’m depressed, fuck this gay earth” bullshit a good question to ask yourself is why you specifically would want to live forever. I would never want to watch every single person I loved pass away and be alone.

I beat him when I realized how agressive you can be against him. Almost every move he has can be interrupted with attacks.

Are you honestly worse than him???

I also judge a game's sales numbers based on twitch viewers because I am a fellow child retarded piece of shit faggot mistake!

I'm not a casual, I already beat the game ages ago.
I'm just saying that that fat cuck sterling ragequit the game on Owl, and he is a fucking casual.
Therefor Owl is a casual filter.
Also for reference, DSP is just a fucking retard, he may be shit but he isn't actually a casual since he still keeps throwing his head against the wall constantly until he gets it.

What do you need a guide for for this boss? Just hit him with your sword and dodge????

Even if he read guides and watched videos or maybe even practiced the guy still took me 30 attempts and was by far the hardest boss in the game for me. Time to kill myself.

I got rekt by her a dozen times trying to do some dumb cheese by sprinting around and baiting dash attacks. When I gave up on that and just stood still deflecting attacks I got a deathblow in 10 seconds. Ebin.

I think Owl 1 was the fight that made me realize that I've finally understood Sekiro mechanics.
I ran out of heals on 2nd phase and just went "nah fuck you" since that meant that his heal debuff was now an opening instead of dangerous AoE. Turns out he becomes quite a bit of a bitch once you disregard your own health and just go in to keep the pressure on.

>Max ragequits on last boss and says the game is shit because the last quarter is too hard
>Sterling quits on Owl
>multiple articles about high difficulty levels in games

This game really shows the difference a rpg mechanic like leveling up stats makes.

>Upgrading the Finger Whistle with the Malcontent ring

Never because you can deathblow the first two phases.

Sour grapes. That's really all it is. Everyone has to deal with the fear of death in their own way. Some just say
>well immortality wouldn't be that great anyways! death is good, y-yeah
Try to make it as poetic or deep as you want, all of that is ultimately dressing. Cue the pseuds telling me I don't get it.

people keep on complainig about sshin's spear but imo his hardest phase is the 1st one
spear is slow and easy to read

Second phase has a lot of super armor which is the reason of most bitching so far.

Holy shit dsp got gutt

striving for material immortality is bad. most don't understand that it's spiritual immortality that you should strive for.
It's what Buddhism is about, and most other spiritual teachings, to become familiar with the after-death body so not to create confusion in the psyche upon dying.

Pretty shit, desu (crap range so kinda works like a shotgun, but you've got way better close range stuff than that). Only worth taking as a prerequisite for the Lazulite Shuriken.

Found the scrub who had to youtube the fight because he's too bad

Based scrub

Senpu temple and mibu village filtered me, probably the most unfun area in the game.

It's really sad genichiro was the most kino boss and dying to him over and over just to get his deflect timing down was based as fuck, but I just can't stand those two areas and the fact I'll have to explore them for progression is gay as fuck.

You cant prove that anyone didnt deathblow her in the next thread which is the reason why no one ever will call her Casual filter since you can just cheese her.

The only people who want immortality are people who haven't thought about it enough. Lets imagine you become immortal. Lets assume you spend billions of years doing EVERYTHING there is to do and experiencing EVERYTHING there is to experience. Congratulations, you still have an ETERNITY left. Oh you find some new shit to spend time with? Oh a couple extra billion years? Great. You now still have an ETERNITY left.

The first two? Fuck i only thought you could do it on the second one.

Only boss so far I beat on my first try.

Seven spears took me like 5 or 6 tries. How fucked am I?

That makes the assumption that immortality is impossible to undo, and that people who have lived billions of years wouldn't have developed the mental faculties to deal with repetition and boredom.

Face it, you have sour grapes. Death comes for us all so we have to put on a brave face.

Reminder that most people believe in the afterlife. That changes everything. Hell, in Sekiro even magic is real and the gods. But even putting all that aside the east loves their fucking cycles.

Be aggressive and deflect

The only two bosses that really got me were Lady Butterfly because I was still trying to dodge everything. And the terror ball warrior in the palace. Fuck that guy, fuck those dogs, fuck rock piercing lasers and fuck the area you fight him in

He's not even that hard. You get a free backstab in at the start by going around the perimeter of the building.
Then he's just a regular ninja but with ako sugar.

>Demon of Hatred
>Same pattern for 2 hours
How is this fun

I can barely remember things I did 10 years ago. I'll be able to experience things as if they were new eventually.

Lady butterfly is a genuinely good boss fight
Ogre is a cheap cunt, that does 45% turns in one frame during his grabs

Just be aggressive nigga. He's also weak if you dodge his initial combo and dash behind him.

Mikiri counter his kick
Jump off his head when he sweeps

>dragonrot makes you worry about accidentally killing NPCs by dying too much
>pretty much all the NPCs die near the end of the game anyway

Bravo, Miyazaki.

Did you git gud at Mikiri countering? If so you'll be fine. If not, goodluck m8, you'll need it

Their lunging kicks count as a thrust attack, so can be Mikiri countered. Once you can differentiate between their thrusts and sweeps to punish appropriately, they're really not so bad.

>That makes the assumption that immortality is impossible to undo
if you can "undo" immortality then its not really immortality since you're still killable.
>people who have lived billions of years wouldn't have developed the mental faculties to deal with repetition and boredom.
nigga there are people that aren't even 40 and already kill temselves out of boredom. Nobody has the "mental faculties" to deal with ETERNAL boredom

Am I going insane or did they mention that perilous attacks had different colours somewhere at the start of the game? I could have sworn one of the tutorial pop ups. But everything is red.

Not him but I had no idea about this.

> Ape
> Lets have an enemy with 4 attacks
> 2 of which are 5 hit combos
> He can also spam them many times in a row

Shit tier boss design

Only reason I died to this guy the first time was because my dumb ass did not know it was a boss arena.

Not that much. Seven spears punish your posture a lot if you dont parry properly. Ye, he can be Mikiri'd but he still can get you. Don´t worry too much.

If you struggled with the Shura ending Isshin then you'd have gotten completely raped by Sword Saint (motherfucker has 4 stages and is far harder).

Juuzou was the casual filter to me. Died like 30 times to that fat fuck.

Git gud

He mentions how it'll make a sweeter sound or something along those lines, possibly more stuff about missing his shinobi waifu. It kinda caught me by surprise (I think it's the only upgrade that prompts dialogue afterwards), so I don't fully remember his dialogue.

I cheesed him by picking off his goons one by one, then luring Juuzou to the npc that aids you and just attack the fatty when he was not focusing me

alright dude thanks

Same. That's not cheesing though, it's literally the stealth gameplay they kept talking about.

Which would you say is harder out of Isshin, Demon of Hatred and Owl 2.0?

That can happen to you even if you aren't immortal.

Overpopulation is a meme
Just nuke india and china and we're back at 4B

im a sociopath who can't form healthy relationships with other people and I want to have the biggest number ever (money)

demon was hardest for me but its probably because i didnt use pussy strats and fought him man to man, cock to cock

Easy once it clicks and your kill on him is near flawless since they are both basic as fuck fights. Gascoigne should have gotten a health reset, by the time he transforms which you can wail on him during, he is dead very shortly thereafter

Because we will actually live forever. Societly wants you to believe otherwise so that you don't fear Hell while they pave the way for you all.

>Stealing the life of others to stay immortal is ok
Fuck off Owl

Yeah fuck this game.

The weak should feed the strong.

This is the most pathetic video game villain I've seen in quite some time. Firstly he fakes his death for no fucking reason (and his son doesn't even get sad). Then he returns and throws a tantrum like a little bitch when Sekibro refuses to leave his shota master for him. Finally his shit gets pushed in super hard in one of the easiest boss fights From has ever constructed. No dignity and fucking pathetic.

So, if you give Monkey Sake to Emma, she tells you about how she was saved by a monkey when she was younger, and how it gave her its riceball

when you define depression as emotional neutrality (boredom) sufficient to kill yourself, you're begging the question in the formal sense of the term. i.e. you're structuring the argument in a way such that you're right no matter what. it's boring high-school dropout tier argumentation. grow up.

Probably a mix of her having PTSD and being tipsy from the monkey booze. Also, it's a hint to Sculptor's shinobi name (Orangutan) that you only discover if you do the eavesdropping steps to get the Purification ending.

Isshin hands down. By a fucking mile and then extra.

The brown ape loses poise very quickly its like a scaled down stage 1 version of ape and you can fireworks into a few slashes and insta execute him.

Enjoy meeting him again with a horde of monkeys backing him up.

Ogre gives the game a bad look though and the reason why there's so much bitching early on. He's not a good boss at all and teaches you virtually nothing about the game's actual combat besides maybe teaching you to rely on prosthetics, namely the fire spout. The issue is that the game tells you to dodge to avoid grabs and the like but the iframes are like half of bloodborne and in actuality its better to jump over his sweeping rush grab but the game doesn't tell make that obvious or necessary because sweepers only really start coming from butterfly/genchiro onwards.

That was a different guy and also very easy. By that time you should have parrying down pretty well and the monkeys can be dispatched beforehand with shurikens.

It would only be good if:
1. you had immense power, and therefore feared and revered
2. were in a backwards ass society where tech never progressed to the Industrial Age
3. Were incredibly wealthy
4. Were politically savvy enough to ensure that everyone around you didn’t just set up a trap for you to be buried under rocks forever
5. Have any worshipper/kinsmen/etc incentive to keep you around by progressing their standard of living; this would ensure you’d have a culture where people would use said advancements in tech to protect you from counter weapons. It’s be impossible to do this on your own

If you were immortal now, you’d eventually be found due to how everything is based on record keeping and documentation. the government or some powerful and rich interest group can and would go to every length they could to secure you away from everyone else.
They may choose to make your life comfortable, but that’s honestly just luck

There’s also the implication that your power could be hereditary. If so, it’d fuck up your descendants lives and the ecosystem as a whole if they were able to spread their genes

Not to mention the fact that everyone around you would keep evolving while you’d be a living fossil

Or the fact that with each passsing year, the probability of you falling into a deep hole/a large body of water and never being able to leave it or be found grows larger and larger

Or...

Fucking hell, the stealth mechanics in this game are so dogshit. Solid Snake and Sam Fisher never had to waste ki energy or whatever to lure guards to them for corner kills.

Ceramic tiles functioning like Bloodborne's pebbles rather than alluring skulls is fucking dumb and those invisibility candies turn all the actual stealth sections into a joke.

To be fair, that attack does feel like bullshit but it only oneshots you if you're running I think

Almost every body of water in Hirata or the whole game. Hell, even where you first fight the Guardian Ape has a small pond.

Literally everywhere with water is worth checking.

If you are immortal there is no reason for reproduction. Vasectomy day 1 bro.
With infinite time it would be easy to make infinite money. Fake your death and fake being a new person. Establishing someone else you trust as a proxy to inherit the money for you, if they screw you over you are immortal and they will never ever escape vengeance.
Some day it may be impossible, but at least right now tracking someone's identity is far from perfect. You can just get forged documents, and then using those you can create legit ones to perpetuate the lie.

>even where you first fight the Guardian Ape has a small pond.
nani?

What attack?

The vision one is super useful, but the suppress sound one really felt like an absolute waste of points, given you can just sprint right at enemies and have plenty of time to deathblow them before they think to turn around.

Yeah, I went back to take a look at the Ape's boss fight arena then noticed the waterfall to the right and immediately felt a slight boner popping up as I sprinted there as fast as I could.

Escaping the cycle of reincarnation is a huge theme in Buddhism

It's good for ninjas and strawhat dual wielders.

Where to go after beating owl?

Ashina castle has an underwater headless in the scummy moat area (the underwater fights are actually a lot easier than on land due to the extra mobility you have). Pop a divine confetti before jumping in and he dies super fast.

I hope they stick to humanoid bosses for the DLC. Ape and Demon of Hatred were the worst bosses in the game. Imagine some Midir shit with multiple phases.

>vasectomy
That’s actually a pretty solid point

I suppose one could just live in the forests forever but that’s subjective and fleeting when faced with eternity

This, he's not hard to dodge.

With infinite time and wisdom you would easily be able to learn to manipulate people, especially with the infinite wealth part.

Mix together all the shit you've picked up at the incense burner then go to the little cave past the illusory Corrupted Monk where you got the stone from.

Also worth eavesdropping on Kuro and getting rice from the Divine Child at Senpou as doing that opens up steps to two extra endings (not sure when precisely the cutoff point is).

That'd be pretty nice, Midir was great and seeing all the people seething over him made it even better

>disliking the Ape bosses

I actually thought those were pretty enjoyable, just for how different they were from Sekiro's usual deflect-based gameplay (given they basically play like regular Souls bosses).

So I'm not the only one who's noticed that.

People have always dropped games if they can't get through them.

The actual casual filter is Juuzou the Drunkard

that's a fake issue, there will be new people to fill your life and the memory of countless late people to fill your mind. Nobody wants to see people they love pass away, but that's likely to happen no matter how long you live.

In DaS immortality is bad because you slowly become Hollow™ and at that point you'll just live forever as an unthinking monster. In Sekiro immortality is bad because you slowly become a Shura™ and at that point you'll just live forever as an unthinking monster.

This. And lots of faggots used a trainer on pc.

Wtf is this rope being

The only person I have ever known who genuinely wanted immortality was completely retarded. He was literally the laziest, most pathetic human being. The kind to get into screaming matches about the fact that Goku could beat Superman levels of manchild.

Parrying is very effective against guardian ape both phases if you can get a read on his patterns, I don't know why people keep saying this
Demon of Hatred, I kinda understand since he has fire attacks that go through your block, but I still found myself deflecting his physicals more often than not. Actually it was a pretty nice mix of using all your defensive options; deflect, dash, positioning, jumping, running, even the grappling hook can be used to dodge that one attack, and you can throw in the umbrella for good measure too

A Shinobi knows the difference between honor and victory.

beat it first try lmao
its an easier O&S

I don't think casuals are able to get past Genichiro, Owl really doesn't concern them.

Do you even get achievements with trainers?

Oh you have got to be shitting me a 3 bar monk

Shura are killers though.
It's not because of the immortality from what I gather.

Magic buddha ropes.

Honor above everything was a samurai thing.

The way he drains posture when continuously deflecting, not really. Gen required you to know deflects and mikiri and is the one all the cheesers on Yea Forums whine about, and monkey requires you to know deflects, step dodges, and jump parries. Those are the gatekeepers. Owl was just a check of whether or not you have Gokan posture buffs on or not.

Stay on his ass like white on rice and parry whenever he tries to attack, mikiri counter his attack at the end of the kick combo.

Because it's a nice coping mechanism to face one's mortality, the most hilarious thing is the retards acting smug about it.

You must live a very sheltered and menial existence if you think the only reason to embrace death would be boredom.

Moral dilemmas resonate with people because they face them in their own lives. The idea is that there are consequences for striving for something unnatural. People build karmic debt when they ignore natural cycles. For example, people who work too much and don't sleep enough pay in other ways. Even more so are the people who rely on stimulates to be productive. The use of adderall is going to ruin people's health when they are older adults, and they do it so that they can get what they want now. Everyone can relate to the idea of yin and yang.

At what point in the game.

Where can I see this dialogue? I have no idea what the difference is unless I play through twice.

You can cheese headless phase by running in circles till he does the move where he drops his body forward and arcs his sword at you, then stands up again - just hit him once or twice right after he finishes his swing and you get free hits every time - none of his attacks will reach you if you just run in a big circle.

There's nothing good about living forever. You just want to sate your curiosity about the future, beyond that immortality without a way out is literally hell. The life of an immortal is an empty existence, by the time 500 years had passed you'd already be wanting to kill yourself because everything would lack meaning.
Human psychology is fragile, it's built to be sustained by social connections, you would watch every single person you have ever loved die every time you try to integrate into society. I guarantee you couldn't spend a decade not having any meaningful relationships with other people before you start to unhinge mentally, let alone a thousand fucking years.

I suppose
since if you beat genichiro there's nobody there

Huh.
Another thing I noticed is the enemy placement changes in the poison pool after you beat guardian ape compared to if you go there before.

No, the only ending that cuts you off is Shura for being a cuck and siding with your scumbag foster dad. All the other ending routes just give you an item that you can later use after beating the final boss to pick which ending you want.

No one will ever live forever. If God is infact real, or if there is some form of existence after death outside of that, it will be vastly different from life itself.

Accepting mortality is the most basic form of acceptance in life, and Buddhism, with its close ties to Shinto beliefs, is centered around accepting mortality and adapting to it.

Sounds like you're just afraid of death.
Have fun sitting in space for more years than there are grains of sand on every planet in every galaxy. Your normal human psychology can surely handle that without anything bad happening to you or your state of mind.

You already do that.
It's one of the reasons time seems to progress faster as you get older.
Your brain gets more efficient at processing the data so it doesn't need to remember the same locations, the same routines, the same people, scents sounds etc, over and over again.
It just needs the idea of those things.
That's why when you travel somewhere far away for vacation everything stands out much more and you feel better, food tastes better and so on.
TL;DR break with routine if you want to savor the moment.

Are you implying you don't fear death, user?

No I deflect perfectly always.

Your brain would probably chunk larger sections of time together. Literally just getting rid of more and more until you can only describe the past millennia with vague feelings and no concrete events.

Yes Isshin's 4th phase is easier than his 3rd by a shit ton but it's because the 2nd and 3rd phase are meant to get rid your healing items and stress you out. The key to beating him is just to remain calm, then the final phase is easy

Everybody fears death. Trying to cope with your fear of death by saying it would be better to live forever is a poor attempt at ignoring the truth.
Spending as little as three days in a featureless room will severely disrupt your general cognitive function. Your sense of time will vanish, your ability to commit things to memory will decrease, your effective IQ will start plummetting, your mood and state on mind will turn darker and darker.
If you had to spend eternity as a lone immortal it wouldn't take more than a short while for your mind to break completely. It's not boredom, it's that your endless life would betray the entire evolutionary development of human psychology. Your brain is quite literally not built for it.

NOT IMPORTANT

Just stealth deathblow the sword guy and then puppeteer him

Orphan of Kos is signficantly harder than Isshin because 1.) Orphan has a stupid animation cancel bug. 2.) Orphan 2nd phase is random, he could pop it at 80% or 10%, nothing is set like in sekiro 3.)Isshin has a smaller moveset because of how the game was designed focusing on Thrust/Sweeps. Those attacks pose zero threat because of strong counter options like Mikiri, lightning parry and sweep counter (generally jump on + aerial CA) thus limiting his overall moveset because you can straight up delete 3-4 attacks due to the perilous system 4.) Isshin has one dangerous phase (Phase 2) which requires posture management and patience. The rest are a joke.

This
It's also why I imagine that heaven, if it is infact real, will essentially allow you to just mind wipe unnecessary memories do you can experience them essentially over again for eternity.
If not there'd be no point. Death gives life meaning

Ok gonna try this

>he said, replying

His spirit is an owl dumbass.
And you want to parry the jump slash so he can do the perilous sweep

They want to die before thirty because they don't want to age over thirty

Could Hyakkimaru beat Sekiro?

The seven spears guy and his pal? You can just run and grapple past those idiots (pretty sure his pal it's possible to sneak up on and puppeteer). The secret passage now has an idol in front of it.

>sneak

Jesus christ, if I was going to take the casual approach and abuse stealth/ninjutsu/prostehetics I would have never came to this fucking board.
Did any of you actual fuckers play the game legit or did you all stealth cheese shit?
Fucking scum. What happened to this place.

While true orphan's phase 1 is stupidly easy to parry and do a ton of damage to once you get the timing down. In Bloodborne you can also over level yourself and make the fight trivial, or summon someone else. Orphan 1v1 at level 60/80/100 is certainly harder than isshin, but you're also essentially forgoing some options available to you in order to make it that hard, while Isshin gives you no caveats on how you tackle him

Even then though, after giving yourself all said limitations, Isshin is still a close second to orphan, and by far is the hardest main final boss (non dlc) in soulsborne history

>game about a shinobi
>doesn't want to use shinobi tactics
Eat shit, tryhard. No one gives a fuck.

I ended up in Senpou before doing Genichiro. I knew he was up there but went exploring a bit before killing him. When I arrived at the first Senpou idol, the Buddha scroll on the wall warned me not to go in. It had the voice of Kuro. Something about his powers not working there and me going on my own if I continue.

I dunno my dude, I think you're wrong. The only way this would be horrific, is if you were captured, or space blew the earth up and you were just trapped floating through space, then what you're saying is true. Can't just stay doing fuck all. however, in this hypothetical situation, nobody is going to kill themselves if thye were, say, a neet for a billion years. perfectly normal health, life, w/e, just average, your mind would be fine with that. it would cope. Just thinking of being alive forever, and then trapped somewhere in a room, that is nightmare fuel though

Retarded samurai cuck lmao

you do realize that they INTENTIONALLY made some spots ridiculously swarmed with enemies so you'd actually use the stealth mechanics that they spent so much time honing and implementing?

Embarrassing post.

>over level
moot point, you have access to the dragon mask prior to Isshin so you can do the same.

I'd put him tied with gerhman, unless you consider MP the final boss then, yes Isshin is the hardest final boss. But nowhere near the hardest boss in souls history.

Or you could... I don't know, get good and tackle the problem using your skills? Ever think of that or is it always "Hmmm, how do I make this path a path of least resistance... What is the easy way out" Bet you summoned in Souls too.
>waahh try hard
It's the truth, if I wanted to play on super easy baby mode, I would have done so and stealthed through the game. Fuck me for assuming this board knew what they were talking about.

>Parry the jump slash
>he does the sweep, you do the jump kick and damage posture
>get two free sword slashes in before you even hit the ground
>keep hitting once or twice more
Yeah your strategy is definitely not the worse option.

There are only a small number of mini bosses and bosses you can sneak attack that aren't literally intended for you to do so.
Hell the fact that they have a sneak attack animation at all means there was some intent behind it, only corrupt monk phase 1 seems to be in that weird situation where you can sneak attack her with the same animation as the phase 2 sneak attack due to phase 2 being about finding her mid spirit attacks

>I'm fighting the legit way!

Embarrassing

Gehrman is way easier don't kid yourself. The second you learn Gehrman's parry timings the fight is fucking over

>Samurai fuck still triggered that people aren't retarded honorfags

You really don't understand how long forever is, do you.
You overestimate the ability of the human mind to handle a situation it was never built to handle.

Jump slashes do less damage than standing slashes

The same statement applies to Isshin.

>Or you could... I don't know, get good and tackle the problem using your skills?
or you could... I don't know, use the mechanics that are given to you which are encouraged to be used since the game throws arbitrary obstacles and challenges in your way?

I want to see you "git gud" without cheesing when 3 longsword ninjas gang up on you with 2-6 wolves, I bet you'll be running backwards real fast

You get to hit him again after landing.
And that's on top of the significant posture damage that jump kicking a perilous sweep does.

Maybe it's the water loli then. It was a kid voice. I hadn't killed Genichiro when I first got there and after I did defeat him, I just ported there. Could be that the warning plays no matter what.

Who here /naughtyandcheesey/?

I literally, abuse, look up cheese for every single miniboss, boss, everything. So far I've cheesed basically every single one. I'm about to fight Owl for the first time, let's see. I hope it isn't

hard

WAITER. WAITER. THERE ISN'T ENOUGH CHEESE ON THIS. HURRY UP MR. MIYAZAKI I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY. HURRY UP.

lmao owl 1 is a joke try owl 2

Not him. I haven't gotten to the purple ninjas gangbang yet but if they have wolves, can't you use the whistle to drive the wolves crazy?

Bro white dwarves will only last a few trillion years. All science suggests that he universe is going to go heat death unless an immaterial (God) intervenes at some point.
Once that happens you're talking about a very very very black room that is 0.00000000000001 degrees Kelvin for another infinity years
Forget about wanting to be in the material realm forever. The material realm is fucked so forget worshipping it, just make your life meaningful, maybe follow a faith hoping for an immaterial life, but make no mistake this one is fucked

yeah but they die in 1 hit so I wouldn't really count on that distraction to work for long

You spend money on this?
Why not just watch a letsplay and lie about having played through the game yourself?
Much more cost effective.

but with gehrman he only has one health bar and his beast phase can be triggered when he only has a few HP left if you're lucky. and it's just way easier to gun parry in Bloodborne than consistently deflect in Sekiro

How the fuck do you beat her
I keep getting swarmed by her adds

Attached: file.png (578x435, 316K)

But the difference is when you parry Isshin's combo you do a tenth of his posture that recovers quickly unless he's at half health.
The exception of course is phase 4. Lighting reversal dabbing on him is the equivalent of parrying gehrman, in that the fight becomes trivial.

unironically based

I really respect cheesers that best the game more than people that didn't due to the fact that only 7.1% of PS4 players beat it. (And considering 66% beat the first boss that means at minimal 85%ish got casual blocked at least for now)
Hell even Cr1tikal fucking cheesed the final boss, which sorta made me lose respect for him since he was actually really good at the game until guardian ape

>Why not just watch a letsplay and lie about having played through the game yourself?
go back to r/souls

haven't fought thunder isshin yet but i literally beat fire isshin the first time i reached that phase. all you have to do is get behind him when he does his Vergil attacks

Your buying it right now with your time.

MR MIYAZAKI. CHOP CHOP. HURRY WITH THAT CHEESE.

Hard disagree, but I don't think he's that much harder. Really Isshin is a joke, I really hope From makes a DLC for Sekiro. I would love a balls to the walls hard fight in this game. The game mechanics really support this but sadly none of the bosses really pushed it's full potential. Like Gael pushed the souls system to it's max, I want a Gael but designed for sekiro. I want a boss that will push your shit in over and over and over again.

Phase 1: Genchiro -- Total jobber, you fought him twice before and he's easy to read and punish
Phase 2: SS Ishin - Same as above, gives away free mikiri counters.
Phase 3: Spear Ishin - Does wombo combo which 9/10 ends in a free mikiri counter. Perfect deflect it all and you just dealth 25% of his posture.
Phase 4: GG - Same as above but now you have lightning parry, gg no re.

Harder than Gehrman, but not by much.

You won't really be able to cheese owl 2, isshin, or isshin sword saint.
The rest yea. Hell even hatred demon is easy to cheese by treating it like a souls boss.

Hold right bumper with upgraded firecrackers. It should deal with any dogs or wolfs around you.

Once the Earth goes you'll basically spend the rest of eternity watching lights in the distance fade out over an astronomical timescale.
You're still condemned to a life of finite meaning, you just ALSO have to continue to exist for the rest of eternity. Even after heat death you'll be there.

Isshin (Forma de Ignis) was pretty hard, but very fair. You're pretty much forced to make a perfect run up to him or die trying. Thank Kami-sama I fought him on NG otherwise I'd be screwed just not perfectly deflecting his One Mind. Very fun fights though. Emma becomes a pushover when you know what to do, but if you don't do it well you're outta luck

Owl 2
Wait for fire cracker attack, dash in punish
Wait for super fire cracker attack, dash back and get ready to mikiri counter
Bait out phoenix, mikiri counter
Bait out ovverhead slam, deflect, jump on perilus sweep.

Isshin
Firecracker everytime ishin powers up
Dash behind isshin everytime he sheaths his sword
Resume typical r1 r1 r1, l1 after he deflects

Sword Saint
just bait out perilous attacks (p1-3) and counter
just bait out lighting attack (p4) and counter

cheese done

The big difficulty of isshin is mastering phase 3. The second you master phase 3, 4 is a joke.
Along the way you see genchiro as a virgin incel disappointment shamfur dispray and you lose all respect for him as you continually beat his part without being hit once

Honestly I think what make phase 3 hardest to master is that some of the mekiro counters don't let you hit him after because he's too far away due to the spear's range

Never had problems with wolves since you can parry them when they jump. I just like using the whistle and watch the animals tear their masters to pieces. First thing I did was go to the Hirata Estate gate and used the whistle. They tore him a new asshole and went for his buddies on the bridge. Might not work as well on the purple guys but it might give me an opening to backstab one at least.

>phoenix

Yea that's what I mean more or less. Hell even if you were Mr. Manhattan eventually it would still suck

So find meaning in this life, accept death, hope for an immaterial life that isn't just about observing and lets you delete memories at will, and move on

Isshin is okay with you slaughtering his forces
He helps you the entire game
Then he decides to fight you at the end
Explain this

>Dashing into the firecracker
Yea nah that's inconsistent as fuck, always run or dash away and mikiri his follow up

it's my favorite meme, don't take it away from me

Couldn't you transition the backstab into puppeteer ninjutsu and get an even stronger ally on your side?

>Going behind isshin as he powers up
>Not Naruto running and then getting a run slash + one normal slash in after he misses his two slashes

It was all just a joke before, but now it's real

He's conflicted
He wants to die but he also wants to save ashima
So he fights you with the mortal blade, so that if you die he'll save ashima, and if he dies he gets an honorable death

I'm more confused on how he got inside his grandson after you see his dead body

That's not me.

Of couse. I can also use the bloodscreen first and then backstab/pupeteer a second one if I so wished. Haven't tried the blood sword ninjutsu yet.

>using combat arts
Don't reply to me again, peasant.

You've been watching so many Ecelebs with unlimited time and practice and read so many smug pretentious posts on Vee you have no idea how bad at games some casuals actually are.

U wot m8
Run slash is just r1/rb while running, it's not a combat art

You're such a fucking brainlet holy shit. It's not poetic or deep in any special way. Just think about what you would do with your infinite lifespan? You would get bored sooner than you think and desire a release.

The 7.1% complete trophy for Isshin made me really smug. Even orphan of Kos was higher

give it time

It was just a social experiment bro, chill. The cameras are hidden in the weeds.

Shitters is a relative term based on the community it's being referenced to.

Shitters in regard to normies? I don't expect them to beat the chained ogre, let alone the tutorial boss.
Shitters in regard to reddit? I don't expect them to beat the guardian ape.
Shitters in regard to Yea Forums? I EXPECT them to get to just barely get to the end of the game because they have autism and don't know when to give up and that's why I like talking to you guys., you guys got spunk

I fought him the first time on NG+2, so maybe that colored my opinion a bit.

Anyone else feel like recovery should have been mapped to L1/Lb and X/A as well?
The only time I ever use O/B is for mikiri counters since jumping is infinitely better than side stepping, so then I always get punished after being knocked down

Holy shit

It's only been 2 weeks. Not everyone is binging on the game.

It's literally been two weeks.
Shura was at like 0.6% for a while

cope harder, you're just shit. I beat Ornstein and Smough first try.

>can't use the lockon properly
>has zero situational awareness
>somehow got to Gyoubu without knowing any of the games mechanics
>you can literally hear him mashing buttons through the microphone
granted, that is a literal retard who can barely read, but it shows that that the true Casual Filters are Enshin and Gyoubu, who test your understanding of the mechanics and don't let you bullshit them.
Isshin may test your mastery, but you have shown you're not a casual retard already.

I mean it's been two weeks
It'll probably rise to like 12% in a few months, but old hunters was dlc and it still managed to hit 9% early on and stay there
Hell considering the minor drop from 12% for great ones to 9.7% to orphan it's more like most people (75%) that got old hunters were players that didn't suck. Gerhman is at about 14.7% and I doubt Isshin is going to get that high

Huh didn't know you could backstab him while he was distracted
That said the puppeteer is obviously intentional since you have to go the long way there to be able to do it

Those aren't casual filters. They're retard filters.
There's a difference.

Run? Without Air Parry -- you can't lightning parry, so you can't beat Divine Dragon. Locking me into Shura's ending. Would you consider Air Parry an essential skill to clearing the game or does it invalidate "No Skills"

This is useful to know, unfortunately I already did a regular backstab on him and got gud.

>I'm more confused on how he got inside his grandson after you see his dead body
yeah can anyone explain this yet

Afro senju is even worse.
He uploads once a day after like 6 hours per playthrough editing the best 10 minutes or so, and he only manages to kill like once boss each time
So much for being one of the 'best' soulsborne personalities on YouTube, what a joke. He's for sure going to give up either at owl 2 if he does purification or isshin.

Why would you consider lightning reversal to be a parry? You don't press block during it and only 5 types of enemies (including the 3 bosses that do it) use it

I've seen a few youtubers, and even anons on Yea Forums do the "I didn't realise you oculd spring until half way through the game"

you know people like that? That's why, we get shit like in the new crash remaster, just off the top of my head.

"press x to jump"
"press square to attack"

so fucking condescending, but that is exactly why we have that. Half the people wouldn't work out x was jump if you didn't tell them, I can assure you

You can still deflect lightning without any skills, or did you mean that was an additional burden you're placing on yourself?

youtube.com/watch?v=OFVfOd68_pU

I was under the impression that you had to press L1 in the air to use Lightning reversal.

Nope, just get hit and then hit R1. I think you take a small amount of damage that way, but it's worth it for the damage you're able to do to the enemy.

Spring?

Oh, I was planning on doing no damage for bosses, so I can't do divine dragon then.
