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
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.
