I was at a wall with isshin on my first playthrough for 5 WHOLE YEARS and after playing through elden ring and ds3 again I decided I’d finally give sekiro another shot and i BEAT THAT FUCKERS ASS WITH NO SPIRIT EMBLEMS,NO BUFFS,NO CHEESE NONE OF IT. I FEEL LIKE A LIBERATED FUCKING GOD RN
Currently getting my ass handed to me by Melania in Elden Ring ;( hearing you overcome your barriers gives me renewed gumption lol
I tried my hands at her a couple times but just gave up, didn’t have it in me
Congrats! That is next on my playlist, right after the Elden Ring DLC
Nice job.
Now see if you can go clear the boss rushes and Inner Isshin
So like… how? I killed most bosses in Elden Ring, but I keep hearing Sekiro is more like a rhytmic game. Which is a shame, as I suck at those.
So how does one play Sekiro?
I never played Elden Ring or any Dark souls game but I very recently beat Sekiro
Honestly it’s a great game. You can’t cheese most of it and with the exception one or two optional or minor bosses, all bosses are fair.
There’s basically no significant grinding. You just need to git gud. Like all fighting games you need to learn the moveset of your opponent but you can’t just run away or grind it out.
For many bosses you will be demolished until you get the gist of it and then when it clicks the boss becomes almost easy af. That’s how good the game is. And when that happens the boss fight won’t take 10+ minutes of chipping away at their ginormous health bar. Instead it goes down in less than 2 minutes because you can punish them that hard.
It’s not a rhythm game like OSU but obviously boss attacks have a cadence that it’s easier to combat if you memorize the rhythm. Hence the analogy. Plus if you time your parries right you can literally deflect anything and never die and that is part of the game.
Try it!
I tried it, but I kept getting my ass kicked.
In ER I learned to dodge, and was enough to beat it. I tried parrying in ER, to absolutetely no avail.
So I guess I have to learn to parry next.
Thank you for encouragement, I will try it as my next game again.
Nicce.
