I'm beginning to think that i don't like Sekiro all that much. I've finished all of the Soulsbourne games multiple times a piece but this honestly plays like i get lucky in fights more often than using any kind of skill. Also, the jumping and grappling is more annoying than fun.

It's been established in this very thread that Sekiro and Dark Souls are actually identical so you can't like one and not the other

Yeah, i'm done with Sekiro. I'm sure it's for someone but it sure as gently caress isn't for me. I even looked up guides and videos to see what i'm doing wrong and i still don't get it. Chipping away at a bosses stamina bar to get a deathblow and hoping you don't get hit by a one-shot combo/strike is just tedious. Also, the level design is pretty loving boring. Oh look, some more pagodas and mountains. Thrilling stuff.

I was almost feeling the same way but by the time I hit the castle I felt like it was on par with the weirdness and variety of any Fromsoft game. I have no idea what you are talking about with the first part though. probably the most tactical combat they have done to date.

I've played literally hundreds of hours of their stuff and I was eagerly waiting for this game and I've quit 3 sessions in a row now with a "gently caress this game" attitude. It isn't even slightly enjoyable. The combat is tactical right up until a boss randomly one shots/combos you to death in the middle of an exchange by breaking their normal attack patterns/animations. As I said, any wins I've had so far feel like pure dumb luck. I might give it a shot again tomorrow but I'll probably just trade it in against the new Yoshi game for the switch and replay one of the other Fromsoft games after I finish that.

I love it but it can be draining. Dark Souls and Bloodborne give you a bunch of options if you don't feel like dealing with something. Sekiro you pretty much just have to slam your head against it until it's dead. My Dark Souls approach has always been "try to solo everything until it's not fun anymore and then just summon so I can move on and start having fun again" so not having that failsafe has been an adjustment.

What boss even breaks normal attack patterns? Bosses in this game are essentially a very elaborate version of Punch-Out For what it's worth, until I really understood parries and counters and just how effective they are, I did get pretty frustrated. After I really got a grasp of the combat though it's been fantastic and it feels great to just go up to some boss and whoop its rear end knowing you can deal with anything it can do

Because you have to be some kind of time travelling hummingbird to consistently party in those games. Yes, even with the Target Shield. And, yes, we're all very impressed with whoever "That Guy" is with 400+ hours in every Soulsborne title who will inevitably quote this and insist that they have no problem parrying anything and that the mechanic is perfect and utterly without flaw. We're all very impressed at the size your brain and penis. But for the rest of us, is any additional leniency built into Sekiro's parrying since it's apparently so central to the game?

Yes, even with the Target Shield. The leniency is that if you gently caress up a parry in Sekiro all that happens is you block. Block and parry are the same thing and parry is just timing the block well. Due to this, parrying all the time perfectly is unneeded as what it does is add damage to your opponents posture gauge.

Yes, even with the Target Shield. It's looser than you'd think is what I'd say. There are bosses that I straight up could not beat if I had to time parries like Dark Souls, because you have to do them repeatedly. Also, like was mentioned, if you gently caress up a parry in Sekiro all that happens is you block instead. This can be bad because a lot of attacks do less posture damage, but not zero posture damage, when you parry. However, your posture can't be broken by anything if you parry it. So there are times where I have been sitting at max posture damage knowing I'll break if I gently caress up my parry, but I just don't gently caress it up and it's all good

I still think the game is their hardest game. All the minibosses just gently caress you up so quickly, it takes time to learn their moves properly. Maybe I'm just actually getting old and slow.

Sekiro sounds like it's mostly a case where it appeals to Soulsy people but also trips them up because it doesn't work exactly the same, or just different enough to be a muscle memory pain.

Maybe I'm just actually getting old and slow. I feel like it's way easier for me than seriously any of the Souls games, or Bloodborne. And honestly, I think that all these different takes on the difficulty just amounts to it being a *different style of combat* that shouldn't be directly compared for difficulty. For me, Sekiro feels much more fair than any of the previous From action RPGs. There is never a move that kills me where I don't know what I was supposed to have done. I have said before that it's worth noting that my take on this is probably influenced by my favorite fighting game being Soul Calibur. Sekiro has the idea of "set play" and "turns" from fighting games. There's no bullshitting it, and though there are fancy things you can do and you have tools, if you don't learn the sword combat you're going to lose. I like that about this game, because there are no tricks like running directly up the stairs for the capra demon to cheese it or using a certain build or making sure you plunging attack the first taurus demon in DS1. I like that fighting toe-to-toe is generally your best option. signalnoise fucked around with this message at 05:35 on Mar 31, 2019 |

Sekrio simultaneously feels way easier and harder than the other games, because you can one shot most regular enemies via stealth and the bosses go down pretty quick. But getting to the point where you can take a boss down quickly can be more stressful and draining than souls because you can't summon and it often involves getting wrecked 30 times along the way. Once you actually kill a boss you usually slaughter them though. There's really no plinking away at things like there is in Souls or Bloodborne. It's pretty all or nothing.2house2fly posted:Iirc people were saying the same thing about Bloodborne when it came out People that claim Bloodborne is vastly different than Souls are delusional, and have done a disservice to people who rightly claim that Sekiro is different than Souls by crying wolf. Bloodborne is fast Souls with a gun parry. Sekiro has completely different combat. veni veni veni fucked around with this message at 16:03 on Mar 31, 2019 |

dmc has better controls than DMC4/5. I liked having access to most of Dante's moves without having to switch through each different style and having Nero's grab move. Sure it's missing a few moves, and the royal guard style, but I'm sure that could have been fixed or improved on in a sequel. And having a launcher button instead of a camera-dependant launcher was a huge plus in dmc over DMC4.
