I found out what item Anayama should sell to the samurai, but it’s not giving me the prompt to tell him. Do I need to progress the game and come back later?

Does he have dragonrot ? Also did you listen to the eavesdrop all the way through so it has a little check mark next to the symbol when you try and do it again? I think if you were interrupted by being spotted or whatever while eavesdropping it won't count

Came back after getting mad yesterday and beat Genichiro second try... got all the way up to the Guardian Ape who definitely feels like a more Dark Soulsian type of boss

If I've reached fountainhead palace am in the endgame? Also, is anything actually missable in this game? The NPC stories seem less punitive than in the past, I may try to go back and finish as many as I can

Take a 20 minute break and talk to your SO about how the fight is frustrating you and your SO will tell you how they are also experiencing frustrations at their place of employment (make sure not to look up any guides during this break period) and upon returning you should be notably more focused and you'll probably defeat the boss on the first try.

I found the 2nd form way easier so idk. I died a lot on phase one but after like 3 attempts of the 2nd phase it was over...probably bc you can parry him a lot easier

Don't get too close so as to not get hit by the AOE.

stab a spear into its neck after it falls down from getting parried too hard, then rip its guts out with the spear followup

Make sure to deflect when he raises the sword really high and holds it there for a second. You do it right and you'll get enough time for about 5 hits or so.

When the ape went ape I started laughing. AND it presents its rear end at you. Once again my predictions about this game being easy and terrible + showing some animal naughty bits were onnthe money. And as usual, animal genital and rectum fans NO which version is the st: the X, natch

I'm slowly but surely making progress... That one-armed swordsman in the place where you start the game was a pain in the rear end, that room is way too small for a good fight and the camera ended up getting me killed several times before I finally got him.

he yells "robert" when he dies, which is the name of the kid from the firecrackers item

the poignant mixture of comedy and tragedy makes this an early contender for the feels gaming moment of the year

okay which one is more bullshit headless or the shichimen? I feel like shichimen because he's got that beam attack that can track, but he's hard countered by one specific tool. headless is just boring and bad to fight, but worth it for the drops which means fighting him... what 5 times?
