Ill always rememeber exploring castles 1-5 and opening monster closets full of skeletons who all do a synchronized 3 hit combos, and learning the lore behind 300 different types of halberd that the skellies were protecting. Thank you darknsouls 2

Demon of Hatred is giving me Laurence flashbacks. He's almost giving me more trouble than Owl. The Owl rematch is the perfect duel bossfight then you get this massive curveball with a Bloodborne boss at the end

I got two bosses left, demon of hatred and sword saint and whooof those are spicy fights.

My favorite fights so far are both owl fights, genichiro fights, and the all versions of the ape. Such great fights.

False Corrupted monk was kind of a wall cause its such a long fight but it is super satisfying when you fight the real thing and totally destroy her.

I hate fighting the snake eyes gunners.

Having a great time with this after picking it up last night. Just got up to maybe the first or second miniboss, the lad you meet after getting the shurikens and there's a big chicken around there. Messed up my first fight after the perilous attack warning I was so focussed on the "correct" choice I forgot that mainly mattered just when the symbol came up. Second time the chicken had hurt me pretty badly and I'd used my gourd beforehand but ended up winning due to resurrection. Just focussed on deflects and dodging not jumping so much and being pretty aggressive. The traversal is so much fun.

the bit in the hirata estate where theres a completely demolished house with dead corpses everywhere overrun with murder roosters ftw. i like to think they were killed by the chickens because of how strong they are compared to everything else in the game

This game was cool. Too bad theyre going back to sluggish rdr2 speed combat where you circle strafe skeletons that do a 3 hit combo over and over. But this time the skeletons are rapists because george rr Martin wrote it

I think the stealth elements are almost vestigial. It’s really bizarre. Ashina outskirts has a whole set of alternate stealth paths, plus plenty of bushes and ways of hiding on the main path. Then after that most of the stealth disappears, consists of a bunch of tall buildings for you to straight up avoid enemies, or has enemies spaced far apart with very wide paths allowing you to just walk around enemies. There is very little stealthing through levels. It’s mostly just to get a few easy deathblows/instakills.

I don’t think I used the clay shards more than once or twice.

I was hoping the stealth would have been more central to the game but the combat is so fun it didn't matter. You can get stealth deathblows on a lot of the minibosses which is nice but yeah the game kinda drops it after Ashina Outskirts.

I really want Sekiro DLC where you play as young Monkey and fight Kingfisher, Tomoe, and a younger Isshin.

I'm up to sword saint on NG+. Almost every boss fight in this game is so thrilling, I like the stealth integration, the lore, the environments, everything is fantastic. My favourite FromSoft game for sure, although I'm not that far into Bloodborne yet so I may yet change my mind.

The amazing thing about Sekiro bosses is they congratulate you when you beat them. FromSoft bosses always taunt you when you die, but having Owl or Lady Butterfly talk about how proud they are that you whipped their rear end makes them the best From bosses. The only other boss that comes close is doing a no-damage run on Sir Alonne in DS2
