Due to the difficulty, I might look up the locations of all the prosthetic tools in the early game so at least I'm not making it that much harder for myself by missing crucial abilities. I hate to do it but... it's not like missing a more powerful sword in Dark Souls. You need this shit.
Tbh it's true. I've made due but I know I've missed a lot of stuff.

I ended up beating the shinobi hunter by just kiting him really far away from the rest of his allies. Felt pretty cheesy. Its weird how you don't get locked into the boss arena in this game.

Can I reread tutorials somewhere? Or can someone please tell me again the different types of danger attacks?

Anyone know why you would want to purchase a coin purse for more than what's in it? The light one costs $110 and gives you $100

There is no reason. Just think of the guy you're doing business with. He's scummy.
There's another merchant that sells them for 100, and that can work as a safety net by "storing" your money so it doesn't get eaten through deaths

So, English language or Japanese? I find that the Japanese fits the game, of course, but English voices were always pretty damn good in the Souls games & Bloodborne.

this is the first time i've uploaded a yt video in like 6 years so forgive the shit editing.

i seriously love how kinetic the combat feels in this game.

Any tips for the blue guy by the
3 story pagoda
? Like 2 hits and I'm dead
I went back to him after one more sword upgrade, and it really helped a lot. What I did was use the sugar that reduced the damage to my health, used a lot of ash and each time I got two hits on him at least. If you have a spare pallet or two it would help a lot too. I dodged more than I deflected for what it's worth.

Yeah I'm not feeling it so far. Sekiros idea of difficulty is "let's put half a dozen enemies around this mini boss" and it sucks.

How good is the game? It wasn't on my radar at all but I feel it is getting very good reviews so I might change my opinion.

Yeah I've been past the cave, I can't find where I'm supposed to go next though, I'm going in circles.

There is a broken bridge after the miniboss area after the ogre. Fall down to the left of that and there should be a sculpture checkpoint. You will need to grapple and sneak your way through a canyon with a giant enemy. At the end of the canyon you'll find a way up to another sculpture and the next section of the level.

The Shinobi Hunter is this games Capra Demon lol, I've just beat him after dying about 5 times at least the run up is easy... You either git gud or give up. It would also help if I learned to do the Mikiri counter properly...

This game is truly frustrating, second time since starting it today that I have to save and quit just to vent. I'm conflicted I don't feel the same awesome feeling I had with DS or Bloodborne games, not really having a good time, perhaps this is just way too hard for me. :(

It's a near masterpiece with some misfires compared to Miyazaki's other games, but overall it's a magnificent game with incredible combat. It deserves it's scores.

The drunkard?

Sneak up the left side, kill two, backstab the shield guy, kill all the adds solo (axe on shield guys, the others are easy) then activate the npc. should be easy after that

It's not like many encounters are like that and it has a way to swing it in your favour, so it isn't cheap.

Guys, jump over the bull when it's charging at you, made the boss super easy. Firecrackers help a lot too.

its B for Mikiri Counter btw, not LB, aka its the dodge button. The timing is super generous, I died like 3 or 4 times because I ddint read the tooltip and kept trying to LB.

Shinobi Hunter before that was exactly the same.

So I'm like 6 hours in and I haven't found any use for money. Is there a store coming up? Am I missing anything?
I'm at the
Burning Bull (?) fight
and since I spent some time grinding levels for a useless combat art I now have a bunch of cash. I don't really mind loosing it but is there a store or something?
Also where the hell do I find Snap Sneed? I haven't found any since that dude gave me one.

Yeah I'm not feeling it so far. Sekiros idea of difficulty is "let's put half a dozen enemies around this mini boss" and it sucks.
The way I beat him was
sneak up on the left, throw a shard at the shield guy and walk back. Wait for the shield guy to come investigate and backstab him. Throwing the shard also makes the boss stand up and walk around a bit, so just sprint behind him and backstab him. Then just round around throw the buildings you came through and pick off all the enemies standing around (starting with the bow guy). When everybody is gone, activate the NPC.
But yeah, those fights are annoying as hell

The grappling hook attack is fucking useless, or am I missing something?

Maybe you're talking about something else but I didn't get what the grappling against Ogre for example even did? If I attempted it, he'd just grab attack me as soon as I landed in front of him after a hit or two it seemed.

Whirl wind slash. It even does chip damage if they block it. So I let them attack, whiff me, I whirl wind, hit em, run and repeat. I'm a ninja not a samurai. I rarely ever get posture kills, only straight health kills.

Ah yeah...you did mention earlier how useful it is. I was using it against the Ogre after blasting him with fire crackers several times per fight. I gotta get it down to where I start the attack as they're still in the middle of whiffing.

There's a skill you can spend points on that makes you do a much stronger attack out of grappling hook points. I unlocked it after those bosses but now I'm thinking they'd be pretty strong if I had it for those fights.
