Patch 1.03 came out today...

They made the game easier? Maybe I can actually make some progress towards beating the game someday now.

Help me Yea Forums, the puppeteer ninjutsu doesn't do jack shit when I use it against the small ape above Headless Round 2
I ended up beating him the regular way but I heard you could stealth deathblow him

get ready for every boss moving forward to be the same

>n-noooooooo you didn’t beat the archers before the paaaatch you’re not a reeaaaaaaal gaaaameeeeeeerrrrrrr
Is there anything more pathetic than fromfags?

Blazing bull was way more frustrating than it needed to be

Glad they nerfed it, one of the worst fights in the game

I'm glad that they made these changes, but I wish that the older versions of these games could at least be preserved.

uninstall the update? guess pc is shafted in that regard but console kids can play the unpatched game anytime with a disc copy.

>pc is shafted when it comes to having actual freedom to play games how they want
Are console niggers really this retarded?

speed run faggots should die

Shut up faggot no one cares

My pirate copy is perfectly fine. Any link to the patch log?

already beat the game with path of hardship/bell demon so whatever

i own both dude user, i just dunno if there is a way to uninstall patches on pc, don't get your panties in twist

They nerfed blazing bull's posture and they made the shitty spirit emblem costing combat arts not cost any spirit emblems?

...

too late I already got all the cheevos
I never want to play again

Anybody got patch notes?

If you're not enjoying the game by that point you probably never will.

They buffed Sabimaru, so it might actually affect Snake Eyes on any difficulty above NG

Massive rebalancing of combat arts and certain prosthetic tools

i wonder how much they nerfed high monk. that dealt disgusting amount of posture damage

how about a proper ng+
fucking hacks

Less, they tried to un-shittify a lot of the combat arts. I haven't played the patch yet if it's even out so I haven't seen if it was done correctly.

Nerfed high monk, the only decent combat art.

how about an emma shower scene you fucks

>i own both dude user
You think this means you aren't a retard?
>dude, I fuck both, healthy bitches and STD ridden bitches bareback

I read the notes and it's literally nothing. Blazing bull got a slight nerf and spirit emblem cost was adjusted for those shitty combat arts that took too many. Doesn't seem like they made them any better though outside of that.

The ape is the shittiest boss fight in the entire game and it shouldn't be used to measure its quality.

>Still getting my shit pushed in by Granddad
I think I'll feel ok enough when I finally beat him.

...

>(unless he comes back)
What order did you do the areas in?

Fixed some skips. But the majority will run the old patch.

They fixed the DoH/Gyobu skip

Overall it’s good but I have a bad taste in my mouth from them nerfing high monk and senpou kicks and even flaming bull. They need to not touch anything about the game anymore. Just fix issues like glitches and spirit emblem usage for some combat arts. THATS IT.

>the hardest ogre variant in the game is now even harder

Ok OP, gimme the patch notes rundown

>unless he comes back).
Let's just say
Prepare yourself for Kong Dong

They literally gave him weakness.

its patched out by the developer, so it is still in the state originally intended by the creators, you ironical shitposter. and thats not even adding a easy mode. stop seething.

Yeah but in my experience the weakness to fire redeyes have isn’t that significant from what I’ve seen.

That's because most prosthetic tools are shit and terribly implemented. They clash too much with the posture system.

the double R2 fire from upgraded flame vent is insane

>Automatic updates
>Always keep this game up to date
>Only update this game when I launch it
>High Priority - Always auto-update this game before others
Wait. No option to simply not update?
I've been sick and in bed for like half of April. I was on good progress to get the last couple of endings, but did they seriously fuck the game up for me now before I could finish it properly?
Fuck. I hate this. The update would be cool if it was optional, but I'd very much like to fully complete the game first.

Just play in offline mode

Physical and pirates win again.

Someone post the actual patch notes

What? It's massive. If you pace yourself and charged R2, R1 spam Ogre you can keep him stunlocked

Makes me wish it was available on GOG.

>Slightly reduced Posture and Vitality of Blazing Bull in order to improve game pacing and balance time in combat.
>Lowered the price of information sold by Anayama the Peddler.
Do I blame gaming journalism for this?
The bull was fucking fun.

Most Anons that commented on the bull hated fighting him and I can understand why, you had to run behind him for so long.

No? Parry and use the red gourd/powder, also firecrackers trivialize the fight

The bull actually teaches you proper movement. Too many people play Sekiro as if it was a Souls game, just strafing slowly to the side, step dodging to the side occasionally when not parrying.
The bull is like the wakeup call to teach you that you're fucking fast in Sekiro and has the mobility of a damn wolf. And its moveset is like designed to teach you how to exploit weaknesses with your movement.

Now it's easier than ever to fight the bull head on instead. Which plenty of people stubbornly tried to do, and eventually succeeded with, anyway.

depends how much "slightly" is
and here's the patch notes for everyone else

mfw I pirated it so I didn't get the patch and also I'm at the final boss fight

Attached: 1551131216666.jpg (479x492, 60K)

The bull fight goes on a little too long, even if you're not taking any hits.

Are Spiritfall items worth using now?
The game practically drowns in you in genuine sugars regardless.

damn fuck this is what i get for waiting. i got to demon and isshin within the first week and put the game down. what the fuck is the point of balancing a fucking single player game

Hmmm, then why did they make it so the bull takes way more damage on it's head? You're talking out of your ass, my dude.

If you just keep stabbing it with the charge attack on its every turn, and go ham on it every time it's stunned. Then you can make quite short work of it.
Especially if you've actually found the fire crackers already and thought to use them on the bull.

>only really used ninja spin, samurai chop, and senpou-fu because they were free
>stopped playing my first NG+ run at the bull, was getting boring
Did they tune into my gameplay or something?
I’m still worried for the inevitable ‘Souls boss nerfing’ patch that were in Ds1 and Ds3. Ds2 had SotFS.

>then why did they make it so the bull takes way more damage on it's head?
Because it's more difficult to hit it on its head? It's worth it though.
What's your point?

there is nothing wrong with this patch, Yea Forumsirgins crying their balls off at nothing as usual

The bull was designed to be fought head-on. Deflecting his charge gives you a prime opportunity to hit his head.
It's us retards who kept running behind him that somehow got a dumb strategy to work.

It was the easiest boss in the game. You just keep running around it and it won't hit you.

I'm stuck on the bull right now. What movements am I supposed to be using to outmaneuver this thing? Because I didn't see any openings at all no matter how much I experiment. I can do the Dark Souls strategy of just running around until there's an opening to hit him literally once before running away again, and I can kind of reliably tank him head on with deflections, but even then there aren't any openings to hit him with combos and do any real damage. Whenever I make any attempts to really hurt him I get killed.

Don't make attempts to really hurt him. Keep using the deflections in a sutainable way until he starts sperging out and hits a wall.

jesus christ, nu-Yea Forums is terrible
why do you go in a Sekiro thread if you haven't finished the game? FUCKS SAKE

They nerfed high monk?

Attached: 1553133621427.png (495x619, 218K)

Just because you run to the side of its horns doesn't mean you can't hit its head after it has missed you.

If you didn't want to crutch on firecrackers the most effective way of fighting the Bull is to run after him and use this movement to avoid his attacks, but hitting his head is difficult so you end up chasing its ass for 5 minutes which is pretty boring. If he had less HP he wouldn't be less dangerous, it'd just cut off the tedium of whittling him down.

how do we know they didn't patch all the cheasy strats out?

Did Yea Forums also complain about dragon qss getting nerfed?

Yeah because tryhards were cheesing the game with it. I for one am glad.

zoomer pretending to be an oldfag, but just looks like a sperg

>qss
Asses I meant

>my epeen is bigger than your epeen: the thread

I'm 19 so I'm definately not an oldfag. It's still stupid to get spoiled before you finish a game.

Steam got rid of the ability to not update at least a couple of years ago. It's retarded.

I'll never understand you fags that don't use items then complain that a fight is not fun or it's too hard

some people don't care about spoilers

>you had to run behind him for so long
You literally didn't. He takes more damage from hitting him in the head. You should learn to deflect.

>a couple of years ago
Fuck. I missed this.
That's fucking retarded.

B-but unless you didnt use any items and healing and played with your left foot you havent REALLY beaten the game.

Am I the only one that thinks the ape is the funnest boss? Once you learn his moves it's extremely satisfying because you can't really cheese it. Did you realise you can deflect his high vertical slash to stun him and then spear the hole in his neck to deal massive damage in his headless phase?

>you cant cheese it.
Oil+flame vent in first phase
Run around until belly flop and hit few times in second .

You sprint faster than he charges. Just constantly stay behind him and hit him when he pauses to turn around.

Firecrackers isn't an engaging item. I only used the Purple one because it's delayed so it's a bit more fun. But consuming resources for a guaranteed stun you can spam and using it over and over to stunlock an enemy isn't fun in my opinion. I abused the hell out of Gachiin Spiritfall which is pretty broken too but that's actually fun to use.

hold sprint and just run around him, he turns so slowly you can really exploit it.

Also remember to deflect him and spam fire crackers.

Did they fix the retarded amount of xp it takes to level up?

Attached: C4C8F2AF-A1FC-4116-BE57-B003A3714FA7.jpg (720x300, 132K)

you're the one spamming the item

They patched it because it wasn't playing how they wanted it to

Hate to tell you this OP, but if you didn't play without the day one patch, then you didn't truly beat it either. Especially since it's harder without it (posture breaks faster, enemies do more damage, not eveyr mini boss can be backstabbed, etc). Don't believe me? Go install it straight from the disc on PS4, without your internet turned on.

That's not the point, there's no nuance for it, no strategy, and it doesn't result in fun gameplay. It's just a button press for free hits.

Cool, there might be a reason to use a combat art other than Ichimonji now.

1.0 is the hardest version of the game, but Sekiro had a day one patch, so most people will never experience the game's true difficulty, especially if they're digital only fags.

NG+ strats since no one has those kinds of upgrades at their first encounter

>they made the game easier
journalists win again

>prepare to die edition bandwagon jumper detected
I bet you haven't even played Demon's Souls.

The same goes to any PC faggot that played Dark Souls a year late and got the baby mode.

I just traded this shit in for yakuza kiwami 2

No update on Steam. Lies. Poo pee poo pee.

And also buffed it but you retards never actually read.

Yikes

I got a better game :^)

Kiwami 2 is just a slightly better 6. God I hate the dragon engine.

>jap AssCreed

anyone test to see how much improved performance wise? had to give up playing because the framerate was ass on vanilla ps4

>5th time now that I've died to that fat fuck jinzo the drunkard.
Really wasn't expecting this game to be this hard. Though I think the biggest problem for most people like me is that I'm panicking all the time which makes me do stupid shit.

Running and Parrying his charges is easy.

oil+fire is your friend

Have you tried killing all the grunts then triggering the NPC helper?

Read the fucking patch notes. They nerfed the posture damage dealt from the drop kick but increased the posture damage dealt by the latter half of the combo.

>How it was meant to be played.

Yes, with parry/R1 spam, useless tools you only use when forced to and pointless combat arts.

WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT?!
It btfo of normal enemies but still had to be used quite a few times on bosses with a low sweep

He's a real fucking pain because you've got to clear out his entourage every single time. When you've got the combat down (NG+) it's a piece of piss, but putting him that early with so many adds was a bit of a dick move.

>reducing spirit emblem cost on skills
they should just reduce them all to zero and make Mortal Blade cost a small amount of health.

>literally everyone parroting about how ich-double is the only worthwhile combat art

>oil+fire is your friend
Yeah I figured that on my last two tries. it helps alot. I almost beat him though. So I've got this but I'll tackle him tomorrow.
>Have you tried killing all the grunts then triggering the NPC helper?
You saying I should try kill all the grunt by myself with the drunkard stumbling about out of view? That sounds scary.
I was actually using the Nov as a distraction so I could sneak behind the shields and other guys to kill them more quickly.
I was thinking that very same thing myself. I've just barely grasped facing multiple NPC's. Just them alone is taxing

Reminder that Nightjar Slash is the best combat art in the game

If by a couple of times, you mean two or three for any fucking boss with a sweep. That shit was broken

I just beat the final boss. I'm prepped for all the endings. Which one do I do first? Planning to go to NG+ to get all endings.

Return is the biggest pain to prep for, do that first so you don't have to fuck with the snek again

Any chance for us piratebros to get it?

Is there any way to avoid the terror scream of the guardian ape besides running away?

Purple umbrella

That's not High Monk

Good lord how hard is it for you faggots to stay behind the fucking thing and use firecrackers if you find yourself in a bad spot. Even the fucking sakura bull fights harder. Sad faggots

So what's going to happen to the cost of axes? Hopefully sparking axe and lazulite axe will have a spirit emblem cost of 2.

Read the notes, they nerfed the initial hit because it dealt way more damage than it was meant to in some cases, however, they buffed the rest of the combo.

They just nerfed its HP.

It's funny how many fights umbrella trivializes.

Get rid of your charm and you'll be the one trivialized fucking casual.

Why do you use your hands for playing? Thats too easy, its basically a free win and not fun at all. You should use your eyelids to play.

Uninstall the game you fucking casual. You don't deserve to play Sekiro if you're just going to cheese it.

I still can't beat Isshin
On his third phase I only managed to raikiri counter once. The prompt is just too fast and I'm usually too slow to jump and swing in the heat of the battle.

It's simple:
git gud

Isshin isn't even that hard. If you can't beat him in three tries with the demon bell the first time through, you probably shouldn't be playing Sekiro.

I don't know what to tell you, the lightning counter is really obvious. You've won once you get to phase 3 because he just feeds you free lightning hits.

Playing blind, just started.

I'm really enjoying the game, I'm at the Lady Butterfly fight.

The fluid combat is very satisfying, how if you plan on the go you can just hop from enemy to enemy quickly cutting down a bunch without taking damage, and how responsive the commands are.

But I have gathered so many items and other things which I don't even know what they are, nevermind about using them. The only thing I've touched are the combat arts, and even then I don't have any active ones because I find that i'd rather not leap into a move accidentally while blocking and attempting to get a quick hit in.

8/10 game so far.

The LB fight is enjoyable. Very simple and effective.

Welp. Beat it just today. Even if I only got the basic bitch Immortality Severed ending. It was a pretty good game.

I'm 72 hours in and still haven't beaten it.

but he does the lightning his only once in 10 combos or so.

>raikiri counter
dumb frogposter

I will never give a fuck what you think. I look up guides if i struggle too.

>No! Stop using the tools this single player game gives you and play it my way!!
I swear you faggots are almost as bad as bloggers crying for an easy mode.

Huh, seems more often to me. I've only done him twice, but both times I won the first time I got to phase 3.

I've just beat him, rushing to kill the adds then fireworks or oil and flame to stagger him to chip away more health really helps. I've died about 5 times trying to do it properly, but there's really no point.

You obviously have no idea how many times Dark Souls has been patched since released. You're playing the cucked easy version these days.

I for one welcome the return of Fromfag elitism/gatekeeping. These threads were too much of a hugbox before and some classical Soulsbourne vitriol can really spice things up.

I didn't tell you to stop using the tools. You said the umbrella trivializes the fight, and I told you it wouldn't if you weren't a charm-using pussy, since chip damage goes through regular blocks in real man's mode. Just uninstall this game and go play super mario galaxy you pleb-filtered fextralife-guided real life monkey lol.

WTF IT WAS LITERALLY MY FAVOURITE AND NO ONE USED IT FUCK YOU HACKAZAKI

Yea Forums said it's a nerf so it must be the truth

Literally just deflect his attacks. I beat him last night after many attempts of "run behind his ass and attack him." I did shit damage and he was such a fucking spazz that I kept dying over and oer but when I decided to just deflect, it made the whole fucking pathetically easy.

How many endings are there?

4

Good job. I'll join you on the other side 2moro

I skipped the first two corrupted monk phases and there's nothing you can do about it.

Why the fuck would you bother deflecting the bull anyways, he just topples over after you deal enough HP damage. Just sprint around to his flanks after you've exhausted your crackers.

The posture damage of leaping kicks on NG+ runs with demon bell and kuro charmless was already negligible and small. This nerf basically makes the leaping kick absolutely useless in those runs.

Yes:
youtu.be/Bq-q_yWNaU8

I didn't even realize I can remove the charm in my first playthrough but I played the whole thing with demon bell once I found it
I pity you for real

>Not beating Sekiro while not touching the controller

You are not a real gamer.

You can only remove the charm on NG+, that’s why. But trust me, once you play that way, you understand why they say it’s the real Sekiro experience unironically. Going back to normal is easy modo as fuck.

I think Sabimaru shouldn't cost any emblems, it is actually pretty fun to use in combat, was messing around with it and it can be used to evade in between strings and has two different sets of attacks, if you do the initial combo then end with R1 then press R2 again it's a whole different move set.

I think it still did pretty good posture damage in ng+3 double redpill, though obviously not the same broken amount as in your first playthrough, certainly way better than just jumping on them. At least on Genicuck and SSI.

Oh. I haven't tried starting a new game, but I did remove it as soon as I reached NG+. NG+ with bell really is a whole new challenge, had to really git gud

the only fix this game needed was swapping all the shitty drunkard copy pasting with rarer enemies like red eye samurai or tengu

kuro's charm is new game+ only. The real sekiro experience is the player's first new game, blind playthrough with no guide and help from online sources, no taking to friends, no watching videos.

All they did was make shit more worth it to use with emblem cost, and nerfed the bull but I already beat him

How do you do that on steam? Honestly curious

The game has no multiplayer or pvp but those 3-way fights after the Ministry invades Ashina and that fight against Junzou and his minions with the Hirata dude gave me more fun than any pvp in Dark Souls.

you can't.

Nobody should care. Beating a video game is no great achievement. You only play it for the enjoyment of a challenge. If a patch comes out that makes the game more balanced, then that purpose is only served further. This thread is bait.

>Balance patches for a singleplayer game

did they add replayability or is shitiro still worse than any Souls game?

More like if you beat it your victory is forfeit fucking scrub

How to know which attacks chips your hp when after you removed Kuro's charm?

An item or upgrade in NG+ that can increase your spirit emblem capacity in subsequent playthroughs or just something similar to the mask where you can upgrade your capacity would be nice, most of the time I just want to try them out in the boss fights but they go down so quickly. The deflect game can only be fun for so long, eventually the patterns become the same.

Still worse

Should I play this on PC or PS4?

Literally can get both for the same price

Everything except for perfect parries

One doesn't have framerate issues.

Neat, will be interesting to see how the changes affect NG+

I hope you will never want to get platinum. I put 15 skill points into attack power before I realized how fucking long it takes to farm 1 skill point later on even with ultimate farming routes on NG+3. Regretted that pretty hard

Turned out to be a surprisingly effective farming spot for Attack Points desu, you can kill both the guy near the Antechamber idol and if you jump down, two red samurai guys are waiting besides the door. And if you go onto the way from the Old Grave idol, there's another red guy waiting in ambush and the Monk from before.

Don't give up fren. Don't forget to use your items to raise your maximum damage intake and posture. Otherwise it's like the other anons said, just try it again until you react quickly enough.

Already got my Sekiro achievement so the game is pretty much over for me anyway.
Hopefully there's an expansion like The Old Hunters.

Y'all are small time.
I BEAT SEKIRO WITHOUT HAVING FUN

Don't compare to soulsfag mouthbreathers.

Literally the same people, who are you kidding? Yourself?

So I already beat the game, looking for a new experience.
I think I'm going to find a mod that reduces spirit emblem usage to one for each prosthetic, and greatly increases XP gain so it doesn't feel so grindy.
Then see if I can remove Kuro's charm for the the base NG with a mod to balance around the easier mods above. Seems like it would be a really fun way to play the game.

was high monk really that good? it didnt really seem much better from jump kick into ichimonji strike twice damage-wise while also healing your own posture

I'm playing NG+ by just going through each level killing everyone and moving to the next part, using the tools/skills/items as well, doesn't feel grindy when you do that since you're still getting exp but not actually farming anything. Plays like a beatemup kinda that way.

Holy shit for real? With the sword?

Just beat SSI this evening so I guess I can keep my Mark of the Conqueror. Now as a high monkfag. unless they make Ashina Cross require no spirit emblems all this will do is stop me from using any combat art that isn't Double Ichimonji. I suspect a lot of people will move towards it too, as it's the only art that has any real utility now

That's a good strat for him, wail on him with confetti till he disappears, wait for the beam, Deflect it and continue wailing on him, repeat till death

you can do what?

I stomped him in the Castle compared to when I first met him.

Praying Strikes Exorcism is fun, does huge posture damage, interrupts attacks, its fast and can be used in combos, the charge up can also stagger bosses out of their special attacks, fun way to play.

Laid it out for ya here You can avoid the terror balls in the same way too

You can also get the anti-air deathblow unlocked and instantly deathblow him twice if you bait him into doing his 'levitate into the air and twirl my fucking faggot ghost stick around like mary poppins but with more screaming spirits' move

Jesus christ. I need to try this out when I finish my current NG cycle. Thanks, user.

What.

it's just fixed

high monk did more damage than intended at the beginning and you were discouraged for using the whole combo

other shit costs less to use now

Yeah that jump is dumb, so easy to avoid and get damage, he just keeps doing it.

The answer to 95% of bosses in this game is to be more aggressive.
Phase 1 is definitely the hardest if you cheese his jump attacks in the later phases. I also laugh whenever I see people say they don't want to "risk it" with the lightning counters, it's so intentionally easy, the game wants you to do it.

Any other prosthetics cheese available?

Yeah, it was pretty ridiculous. You could literally hit for 95% posture damage on those purple ninjas in the revisited Hirata memory when they did their leg sweep. It also has way better tracking and reliability then the goomba stomp, which can be finicky as hell to pull off.

Where can I download the patch?

Half of those aren't even good choices, let alone "cheese".

Living Force with Double Divine is neat, can get free damage, combine with a skill like empowered mortal blade and Yashakirus Spirit.

More like "having a job is defeat".
God I wish I was a NEET because now that I'm playing this again after a week of not playing, it's ravaging my anus.

The last fight at fountainhead is a bit more finicky, even with the drop sneak attack just because you're in a virtual corridor, which is where is terror beam really shines. Also, if you think the cover will block his attacks, you're dead wrong as that shit will clip through the terrain to hit you.

I just beat Isshin yesterday and I'm a wagecuck who bought the game on release day. You have no excuse user

>mad soulbabby only knows how to block and dodge

Does anyone actually know what was changed in the day one patch?

>that shit will clip through the terrain to hit you.
I was so mad when discovered that the hard way. Not to mention, there are those Bloodborne shark dogs nearby, so you might aggro them and have to evade lightning. Can you use the lightning to damage that fuckead warrior?

>missing the point of being a Shinobi

Fuck honor, use what you can to get that W. Owl's title is great Shinobi and he'll grovel for a free hit. If the game was about only deflecting you'd be a dumbass samurai.

Dunno but now I want to try it, maybe Whistle the dogs and they'll attack, and wait for a lighting attack.

>implying your opinion matters

Even Genichiro and Isshin take a dump on that sort of "honor."

Please call my boss and tell her that.
I did get to the last boss without much trouble but I didn't have time to give it a honest try.
At this point I might just wait until my summer vacation and start over to relearn the game.

Surely if it is a day 1 patch then 1.01 is the true intended version for the public?

As they release the game on release DAY with 1.01 as the version they wanted people to play.

1.00 was just the version they put on a disk months ago.

It's actually where terror beam is a liability. There are only two places he can teleport between so you'll always know where the beam comes from and be able to rush him.

You don't have to clear the grunts. You can make him alone chase you (he has a longer range of vision) to the water zone and hide. Then use stealth at his back to get 1 deathblow (1 life bar less) and go near the samurai NPC and he will automatically start fighting the boss. You can't lose this 1 vs 2 battle if you keep spamming fire at him.

So the patch actually lowered difficulty? I thought it was just adhusting skill costs

Deflecting his charge and doing some R1s deals far more posture damage much quicker than spamming firecrackers and running around like Naruto. You also don't have to deal with his second phase this way.

Where exactly does it say "Sekiro is now easy"?

Didn't even bought the game. I like Dark Souls not "every game Miyazaki touches". That my friend, is the power of marketing.

srsly that posture dmg of high monk was some insane good thing based From fixed it now casuals can't cheese it now

That has more to due with the fact game pass is pretty much free and people are just jumping from game to game than anything else.

Myself, I haven't experimented as many different games on my Xbox than I did this month.

>journos won
they still couldnt pass hogan or gen

IIRC Bloodborne had a similar patch when Arcane shit used way more bullets that it does now.

weak excuse
i give that excuse 2/10
nice try tho

Is it any different from grinding skill points to get increased emblem capacity? I hardly ever use my tools unless against bosses and mini bosses, if they were a bit cheaper I might bother using them against normal enemies.

>loaded axe is cheaper
shit theres your easy mode son, axe is op the cost was the only thing holding it back

no patch has fixed 24fps so idk senpai

The patch notes say some skills were not working as intended, meaning if you beat Sekiro BEFORE this patch, you are a cheating bastard with no honor.

>18.91% beat Guardian Ape
>21.61% beat the Monkeys

Wtf how, I thought you had to beat the Ape to get to the temple.

The 40 percent Gascoigne is very much due to it being free on PS Plus last year, it made the completion percentage plummet a lot because people tried it out and got filtered by based Papa G.

Point out where I'm being retarded. I don't think they have any reason to touch the game's balance after the release and they should not do it aside from bugfixes. It would be different if SNOY weren't retarded and actually allowed people to decline updates they don't want.

You only need to beat the Bull to get to Senpou Temple. Folding Screen Monkeys are a pretty fast way to get more attack power with next to no risk.

Just beat her after launching the game again.

What an incredibly easy fight. You can stagger her with two hit combo, delay, then repeat till you have to deflect and jump away for a bit then repeat, and just jump around or hide behind the pillar to avoid magic missiles.

This game is shaping up to be easier than I thought. Also beat the bull boss everyone's complaining about on the first go.

Still stockpiling items. Will they ever become of use?

Virgin

Or you can just stealth kill them.

>you probably shouldn't be playing Sekiro
I pirated the game so you’re right in a way, lol

He needs to meet Christ before dying

Talking about axes, are there any ways of killing shielded enemies without the use of an axe or stealth?

They become a use if you want them to become a use, you can go through the whole game just deflecting. I think the whole point of the game is just to try things, it's very open to experimentation.

Fucking hell. Really?

I just wailed on them.

Update: recent game has been patched so that you no longer lose all your saves, your progress, your girlfriend, and have your actual balls nailed to the actual wall every time you get a game over. Another fix has been implemented that doesn't allow the AI to grab you from 10 feet away, a mechanic that gamers described "it's no big deal, I just need to git gudder." Thankfully, enemies no longer kill you instantly when the character walks in front of their cone of vision. However, many players became upset at this, citing the need to "git gud and just never got spotted once in the entire game, works on my skills!"

Attached: 1549326664456s.jpg (209x250, 6K)

It seems to make everything far easier tho.

The arts and arm are enough variance gameplay wise.

Did anything change for sword saint?

It blows my mind that people complain about the difficulty in this game, over half the bosses have near game breaking cheese strategies (malcontent demon of hatred, step attack lady butterfly, snap seed corrupted monk, death blow true monk), or are just easy (divine dragon, quad monkeys, gyoubo), leaving literally like 2-3 parts of actual challenge in the entire game.

Of course, if someone plays it completely blind and doesn't know the cheese strats then there are quite a few difficult moments, but im making the assumption that the people complaining about difficulty are also the type that go to the wiki's after getting frustrated or watch youtube videos of people defeating anything they're having trouble with.

My friend keeps trying to beat Lady Butterfly by whirlwind slashing her repeatedly and not dodging her attacks / anything. Just whirlwind slash and maybe a shuriken to knock her out of the air when she jumps up. He doesn't understand to jump her sweep and gets hit every time. It's been 3 multi hour sessions of him trying to get past her. I admore his persistence but damn.

Attached: 1534957206751m.jpg (544x1024, 87K)

Fully charged spring loaded fire barrel ignites the ape's wife every time, and you have enough emblems to bring her from 100 to 0 unless you whiff one of the explosions.
You can just run around the arena waiting for the perfect moment to hit her so you only really have to fight the headless one.

nah so git gud

Imagine being this upset at a child's toy that was designed to be beaten.

>I cant beat the bull

How? Literally how. I can't fathom this. You throw firecrackers and it stays stunned for 5 seconds, letting you get like 50% of its posture down, how do you suck this badly Yea Forums? I'm legit serious, this thing is Blood starved beast 2.0, AKA you kill it on the first run because its piss easy every time. get fucking good. holy shit.

Attached: Gamecube.png (353x287, 8K)

Are you just watching him, user?

Help the poor soul out. The deflecting window is enormous in this game. If you can get him to try it and see how easy it is, yet satisfying he might have a better experience.

Spear prosthetic on headless Ape does good posture damage.

firecracka dumb mothafucka

Deflect his moves, dodge sideways or keep moving sideways to easily dodge most charge attacks. Firecracker him for extended damage after a combo, not to initiate damage.

Don't be intimidated by it. I realized so far everything can be deflected or guarded unless the red moonrune appears.

Same with me but with the spear. I remember 2 NPC talking about how you could use a spear to deal with "some armored guy" and I totally forgot to use it against the Western Knight (was I supposed to use it against him?)

It sais it can break armors but I haven't seen it anywhere.

guess I wasn't at the right angle or something always got seen by one of them even after taking out the dart guy. even tried to aerial deathblow and it didn't pop up.
using the axe breaks their shield if you do it right and you can instantly kill them after that.

senpou is weaker

I offered him tips but he refused, he said he wants to learn to beat the boss himself. Which honestly isn't happening any time soon since he literally just Whirlwinds against her repeatedly, regardless of whether she's blocking or not. I think deflecting isn't really that good against Lady Butterfly though, but just dodging and R1ing immediately after is decent on her I've noticed.

Feels good. Bulls enemies are cool. Bulls are cool and underrated badass animals.

Spear doesn't do anything to Armored Warrior.

I'm upset at tryhards who think beating a Miyazaki game gets you mad e cred and basically, everyone else is a huge fucking loser for not gitting gud. Thread after thread of actual posters complaining about bullshit grabs and stupidly broken boss fights. But when confronted on it, you change sides and say "n-no, it's supposed to be super difficult, I'm totally having fun taking three hours to beat one boss."

I deflected the FUCK out of her, it's easy as hell when you realize she's only got a few attacks when she deflects you that can all be countered and is an old woman who doesn't recover her posture very fast. Her second phase was my trouble with the fight, still do-able.

Why is so much content in this game re-used? It feels like padding which is weird because it still feels like one of the shortest Fromsoft games.

Doesn't sound bad at all. From nerfed all dark souls games to much easier versions within a few weeks, but all this did was nerf the bull.
You could argue that reducing emblem costs is a nerf to difficulty, but some were just un viable to use because of the high costs. This is good for gameplay variety.
Also they fixed the shitty translations, love it.

It wasn't made easier, read the notesI can't imagine

Literally the opposite is true. The patch makes the game more in line with the developers’ vision.

Can't imagine how anyone could find ng+ boring, if played on hard mode. You made it boring by not increasing the difficulty.

no. the bull wasn't hard. he just took like forever to kill.

>nerfed high monk first kick but buffed the last part of the combo
You'll never get to the end of the combo without the enemy blocking, I don't even think it's possible for an enemy not to deflect the last hit. This "buff" is irrelevant, multi-hit attacks are only good against enemies that don't block, and in this particular case high monk is the shittiest of them all.

??? He's only five times taller than a chicken and not even twice as tall as an european knight.

and dodge the moment he grabs you

I already killed him. Like I said, it's not a matter of being stuck but rather seeing the BB/souls flaws accentuated by a different combat system

You can cheese Owl without prosthetics. Just wait for him to do that flip and do a heavy attack to chip away at his health.

>started the game 1 hour ago
>thinks he has a valid opinion and roams the threads spouting it
oh it's that kind of guy

yup

>said the autist who had 4 tabs open with guides about the game the whole playthrough
Your whole generation was a mistake

whats wrong with guide?

Figure the game out on your own you stupid zoomer

Not him but I couldn't be fucked to find the hole I was supposed to throw myself into.

why is everyone saying this game is hard?

deal with it

Nobody, not even game journos, are saying the overworld is difficult.

>having problems with demon of hatred
>try playing without locking on
>fight is now a cakewalk
>just mindlessly run to his crotch and he misses 90% of his attacks

fucking kek every single boss has a single gimmick that once you know it he is laughable

>defensive
Great contribution! I included my playtime for a reason. In what way do multiple hours of playtime improve the broken targeting of the past 4 From games?

Or, are you just the latest iteration of the faggy git gud/"I'm hardcore because I beat [insert game]" crowd

did the same for owl. Owl is nothing when you just run circles around him, wait for him to do his drop attack, hit him twice, and repeat.

>tfw I'm one of the privileged few who beat the original Sekiro
feels good, m8s

Did they make boss fights more than just spamming attack and parry?

No?

Alright, well I still don't see any need to play though NG5 then.

>implying autism simulators like SS13 and DF with their gazillion hotkeys/functions and non-existent tutorials are remotely comparable to Sekiro

You couldn't find the conspicuous giant hole with the granny next to it?

me2 mate

I thought the area that comes before the hole was just a mini-boss room so I never came back. There's a trail of items leading to the hole but 90% of the items you find in Sekiro are useless trash so I never went that way to pick them up.

Juzous are pretty easy after NG+ to be honest. Their attacks are very slow and easy to anticipate

Threadly reminder that DSP beat it with 210 deaths (less deaths than Dark Souls 3) and he beat the final boss in 3 tries.

>Defeating isshin by chipping his health
Yep, that right there the fucking scrub officer!

According to a post on gamefaqs, from someone that's playing without the day one patch: damage is higher, posture breaks with less hits, not all mini bosses can be backstabbed (have to fight them with both health bars), some shops have slightly different items. I'm thinking of doing a run unpatched, since it actually sounds different enough from the version that most people have played.

Daily reminder that he skipped a bunch of deaths and didn't count the times he revived.

Why would revive count? It's a game mechanic you can use to your advantage.

No real experience is NG+ retard.

gonna contact steam to have this shit permanently removed from my account. Look how fucking easy they made this shit after the changes

FUCK! WE had ONE game that was slightly above normal difficulty and all the fucking trannies at PCGamer/Kotaku/Polygon had to RUIN IT!!

FUCK GAMING (((JOURNALISTS)))!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

keep a very close eye for which grab he's gonna do. If you're right at his feet, it will be an instant reach down. If you're a ways away, he's either going to run up and grab or LEAP and grab you. You must JUMP the leap cuz dodging won't save you from it.

He always had red eyes.

>You only play it for the enjoyment of an adventure
Fixed for you.

If you run away from the monkey as he starts doing it, you aren't going to die from the scream and most of your terror bar would be filled up. But if you stay near him, it fills the bar completely.

Stop watching videos and pretending to be an expert.

So i just beat Guardian Ape and Monk. What do I do now if I want to reach fountainhead palace and get best ending?
How do I unlock nighttime and fight demon of hatred?

>actually watching speed runs
Disgusting.

>dr philstein
holy shit

I sent kotaro to anayama with divine abduction but he isn't here. Where else would be he be after "send to anayama" prompt?

>shitpost thread is still going

I think you fucked up using divine abduction on him. If he's not in 4monkies place (on the same platform where you spawn in) or where you originally found him he's probably gone permanently.

>I sent kotaro to anayama with divine abduction
wtf you talking about nigga

Oh fuck, i thought the only way to get him yo travel was by DA
Now he's at illusions and i get nothing for it

u get permisson nigga

Because it is a death. The fact that you have 2 lives doesn't mean that they count as 1. If anything, that means he died 200 times even though he had 2 lives and 1 of them was easy mode since you fight an already hurt enemy and doesn't have to go back to respawn so that makes those 200 deaths even more weighty.
Plus, like I said, he skipped content.

Why should anybody care?

I'm a cyborg ninja, I'mma do cyborg shit.

Reality check for you all.

No because i gave him the red white pinwheel, told him to go to anayama and i thought i had to send him away to anayama so I used divine abduction right after i told him to go to anayama
Now all he says is "ahhh...."
How do i get him back?

it's PR stunt you naive mother fucker

That's a lot of health for somebody supposedly doing that area for the first time.

without the day one patch your posture breaks really fucking fast. Even the jobber can wreck your posture gauge with one combo. Makes Mortal Blade sword art cheesing everything the most optimal strat.

It's not, it's more likely too much health for someone doing it for the 10th time. It's a webm from my first playthrough so I explored fucking everything, also this is from the revisit towards the end

Spergs will just run old patch because actually evolving with the game is "too hard."

I'm not good at action games and I beat Sekiro. Took me a while though.
