I think it seems short because of how easy it is to just avoid enemies, and the warping. If you fight all the sub bosses it takes longer.

You could always wait until after to fight it. It doesn't plop you right into ng+
If there was a PC version, I would love to replay Bloodborne. But I don't want to go back to that kind of base PS4 performance. Just having Sekiro load in a couple of seconds on an SSD is so much better than Bloodborne's 45 second loading times or whatever it was that I remember.
You get an upgrade from Emma once you unlock every skill in the esoteric texts, is this worth grinding for before going to NG+ or should I just start a NG+?
You can see the ending and then continue playing on in that play through before going to NG+.
Which is why I hope From never does another exclusive again.
Hmm i suggest everyone to beat him playthrough one. He's a lot tougher in NG+
that boss isn't too bad might as well just crank it out now. if you can beat final boss you'll have no problem
You should use "Once Smitten, Twice Die" or "Blade Runner 1589" as the OT2 title ;)
It's not there and you'll fight it soon in the first location
Yeah he's a bastard.
First form is easy. Second form I can manage somewhat. Third form... Not so much, lol.
Ah, thanks. I should be used to new game plus being an option by now and not something automatic, not sure why I thought otherwise.
Some moves chip through block. Usuaully elemental attacks or strong attacks that leave the white streak behind. You have to deflect it to take no damage.
Same, I hope I can at least equip it, even if it does nothing. Should be fun enough.
2 bosses left plus whatever optional bosses you didn't fight
Throw shurikens while he's jumping around? You can also Mikiri his thrust kick. You have the initiative in terms of attacking, then during orange flash you he'll counter with a spinning drop kick. If you're losing posture, that means you're not deflecting him correctly. Also, you can drop from above for a free deathblow.
LMAO
Can we please have that? What a weird item description, I love it.
I've never seen a SP game OT have this much activity. Fromsoftware always delivering the goods, and getting people talking!
You don't need to do perfect parries. Just dodge to the left before he attacks. He misses 99% of the time. Attack him, run, do the same thing again
No, he was asking why he was talking chip damage, and that's the reason.
Legit the only "minibosses" or whatever in this game that have given me any trouble are those assholes with the terror-inducing beams. You can't even cheese them because it goes through EVERYTHING.
Mikri isn't even possible against an enemy that isn't using thrust.
With the spear phase, stay at a good distance while running, when he does his jump slam move, he'll close the gap by attacking right after his jump move, at this point you can hit him with anything but only once. Hold attack button, then run away. Do it again.
I kind of agree I guess. I just miss having the ability to choose your weapons and armor. Plus aesthetically, it just does nothing for me at the moment. Some of it reminds me a lot of Otogi.
You're right. The "cannot" threw me off lol my bad
It's interesting seeing some comments about the game opening up or changing after Genchiro. I got to him a long time ago but left him alone thinking it could be the last boss. So now Im 30+ hours in and just checking out all of these other areas and what feels like tons of side bosses, etc. Maybe Ill just head back to Genchiro and kill him to see what everyone is talking about.
Hahaha no. He's the halfway point marker tbh, game opens up even more after that.
The purple umbrella specifically, yes. It's also a good substitute if you don't wanna use confetti because the umbrella attack can damage them too.
It took me a little while to get there, but I'm feeling the same way. Combat is so much better, and not having the luxury of iframes forces you to play differently and more tangibly engage in a new and exciting way. I absolutely love the way some of the bosses come in and announce themselves. It's so memorable and badass, like this perfect mix of a Kurosawa epic and the rawness of Kawajiri (Ninja Scroll). The game also seems to be more dialogue-heavy, which I like. While the relative solitude of past games is what helped define their world and atmosphere, I'm appreciating the contrast here.
Got to the final boss finally. Tried it 3 or 4 times, doesn't actually seem tooooo bad, just hits hard.
Should be able to handle it when I get off work.
The final optional boss though...fuck that.
Genichiro is a total jobber, which actually feels good to come around on since his pattern is basically engrained on my memory still.
Isshin has some funky timings but atleast for the first phase is open a lot. Spear thing seems like the main difficulty in the fight but I'm already able to get to it pretty painlessly.

Don't you run to the side and towards him? He shouldn't be able to hit you. Also if you stand point blank in front of his face, he can't hit you with the beam so just spam away with divine attacks
Ignore that, go all in offensive with fire. Human sub bosses are easy with fire spam and constant aggression
I would stun him with firecrackers and get 2 free hits and ocasionally also use the same method to get a safe heal. Dodge all kicks, block sword. After more than 10 attempts, I managed to kill him.
Yeah it's the guy who spams ashina draw
Yeah I don't like
fighting giant enemies in this game and that one is literally the father of all beasts. Took me an hour to kill that fuck.
Anyway inside?
I'm at this foggy village with dudes that don't die and there is a house with someone playing a flute...how do I get inside there?
I went
. Is that a good order to tackle this part of the game?
Sunken Valley -> Senpou Temple -> Depths
