True and i love Nioh. These comparisons got old already, since Sekiro looks like its own thing.
i guess some people still mad that Bloodborne 2 is not happening....

True and i love Nioh. These comparisons got old already, since Sekiro looks like its own thing.
On the podcast they mention there are mutant roosters and poison lizards in the area. They'll probably show them later on this month.
Oh, the arguments we're gonna have.. (Era)
Goty strong maybe, gotg.. let's wait and see.
Anywho, the game looks sublime.
watched like 20 seconds and nope'd right out. This looks incredible and I don't need to see anymore.
As far as the soundtrack goes, what kind of music can we expect from this game? Will it be japanese-inspired with kotos, flutes and the like; or something more synth/electronic?
It's sounding like Yuka Kitamura is doing the soundtrack, so probably orchestral like the previous souls games, and yeah definitely heard more japanese inspiration in trailers and footage. Also seems like there's now music playing in the background all the time.
Lots of koto, samisen and drums, surprisingly more ''exciting'' compared to Souls games atmospheric/sorrow/epic choir.
It's FromSoftware's idea of an action title.
The former.
From synthesizes most of their instruments and vocals, but they're all classical compositions. You can hear the music in the background of the video here, and there's been other music in previous gameplay videos.
huh that's cool
wait, they're totally gonna make you swim away from the giant snake or other monster trying to eat you at some point
fuck god dammit
I've been viewing this as a spiritual successor to Tenchu from day 1, and the more gameplay I see the more fitting that description is.
Neither since in Japanese you wouldn't emphasize a specific syllable. How does it feel to be DOUBLE wrong?
I put all three Dark Souls games on my GotY lists for each year, but I am completely burned out on the series. This game looks like a fresh direction while still maintaining the interesting aspects of the Souls games.
Well, no.
Nioh had completely boring locations, graphics were a lot worse than this and it was totally focused on the combat with no interaction with environments or other way to take on the enemy.
This one already showed in 30 seconds clip you can swim, you can grapple, you can quickly escape from your enemy, you can stealth kill them, you can combine all of these, and you can have boss combat with a much better variety and awesome soundtrack. Totally not Nioh 2.
I doubt they will go with cosmic horror, but they will definitely dive deep into folklore monsters.
All I want is a shirime encounter in Sekiro :D
Same, enjoy reading the reactions but I'd love to see this thing for my own eyes when playing.
I'm of two minds on the subject... I love Tenchu's world of super ninjas and no overt supernatural creatures and fantasy, and we really don't have enough of that.
On the other hand, FROM does fantasy so well, and the game does feel like it kept some of the most important elements from the Tenchu series, so I can't wait see the monstrosities they came up with.
Bloodborne 2 is definitely happening, Sekiro existing doesn't stop that.
i don´t need an extended look tbh, this game will be my personal highlight 2019 .-) time to go on media blackout now because i don´t want to see more, really hyped for this game now and it is already around the corner. 2019 is shaping up to be really killer: Ace Combat, RE2, KH3, Metro, Anthem, DMCV, Division 2 and finally Sekiro. and all of that in the beginning of the year...
i wouldn´ t be so sure of that tbh
This looks incredible. How did I not really notice this until now. I love how open ended and fast paced it all is, and beautiful. I can see what carried over from the Bloodborne engine but the gameplay now looks more my cup of tea. I hope it's less difficult or has a less difficult option than Bloodborne.
The character flying about like Spider-Man is a huge turnoff for me. Also thought the swimming was over-the-top fast. Is this a super-hero game, cause that's what it looks like.
Pretty sure he was using his prosthetic arm like a motorboat.
Yes, you can use your prosthetic arm to become a ninja motorboat.
It might in the future. The Gameinformer crew mentioned that almost every lead for Bloodborne have been on Sekiro so you won't see it anytime soon.
He's a ninja with a prosthetic arm fighting demons and monsters. Are you expecting a super realistic game?
it's a fast-paced action game, what do you expect? slow walk and realistic swimming animation?
In comparison to what? In Bloodborne you fight and kill elder gods and tank star explosions.
After 10 years of slowly trudging through swamps, the last thing I want is slow movement through wet zones.
This environment is really nice but the character's foot slide and general sense of connection to the ground is not very good.
I also really didn't like the slash trail effect they've implemented. It makes the attack look very weak and amateurish even though the character's actual motions are fine. I expect better from them in that area.

The regular person will probablly find it more difficult since you can't grind out levels to inch out victories using bigger numbers. The Skill-tree sounds easier to understand than the usual stat-sheet of souls games but it's on you to get the gameplay complexities.
They said that having a on the spot resurrection mechanic won't make the game easier and some other demirit for dying they aren't talking about yet.
