Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice |OT2| Domo Arigato, Mr. ROBERTOOOOO!!!
- Thread starter janusff
- Start date
The lore itself seems connected.
And we have the japanese guy in BB. Of course we cannot be sure, but the connections are there
I just bloody fucking HATE
every part of the last fight of the game. It is just boring, long and infuriating. Is it possible to make someone else beat this shitty fight for me? Like if i hand out my cloud save?
Game is just pissing me right off.
I fucking hate you have to fight bloody genicihro over, over and over again after every fucking wipe. First phase of the shit boss aint too hard but all his abilities after just tracks middle of the air and such. I just get frustrated and pissed the fuck off.

Are you saying the real Sekiro™: Shadows Die Twice starts here? :)
I think I have to go up against the seven spear guy mini-boss next. Oh joy...
Just finished the game.
After reading here I was really anxious that the final boss would be just too hard.
Fighting Genichiro each time was annoying but at least his phase is quick if you play aggressive.
Isshin was super overwhelming at the start. Especially just sighting 3 life bars and quickly being defeated in the first phase.
Coming down to it the fight ended up being about how well you can preform the counter moves. keeping up the deflects and landing the counters is really all it is. The last phase is super quick with lightning reversals, but super frustrating if you mess it up.
Dont know how many attempts it took but was far less than learning Genichiro on the tower.
I got the three good ending via cloud save. Not sure I understood the Dragon one with the frozen tears.
now just on to clearing up before ng+ to get the other end. Demon of Hatred seems super annoying..
Favourite boss so far might be Genichiro or Owl on the roof.

What lore specifically? I haven't seen any that indicates they're connected at all.
There's also a ninja in Dark Souls, that doesn't mean they're connected.
It's a shame that there's no incentive to kill optional mini bosses in NG+. You get a gold bag, but money is basically meaningless once you beat the game.
Some good progress today.
Also finally killed
Now I need to go back and try
again, but it is so hard.
Long-arm Gentipede Sen'un. Did it on the 3rd try, but I had fought the giraffe earlier. Killed the minions on the pillars first. Then did a jumping deathblow. Used firecrackers to distract him while I finished the minions. Then deflected attacks, used firecrackers to get my posture back and/or heal and then repeast. A lot easier than the giraffe since I only really needed to do one deathblow
Also finally killed
Seven Achina Spears – Shikibu Toshikatsu Yamauchi. First stealth deathblow, then firecrackers to down his HP. Finally mikiri counters for posture dmg and second deathblow
Now I need to go back and try
Genichiro Ashina

Yeah. I think it just burns a bit that we get so few games with this setting, and two out of three in a relatively short period are all in a genre I never got on with. I'm kinda desperate to like them!
Ghost of Tsushima is a day one for me!
YEEEEEES! DONE!
I thought I'm gonna get a heart attack in the last phase of the last boss fight, my heart bas beating like crazy. The most exhilirating fight in any game I can think of, to be honest. All the sweat, blood and tears finally pay off, you put everything you've learned into the fight, you learn to overcome fear, to push on, to not give up and you finally prevail. Fucking sublime this game is.

Also,
How the fuck did I miss the Return? I did everything, gave persimons and snake hearts to the divine child, spoke to her in the hall of illusions, gave her rice... Why the fuck did I get Immortal Severance?
First wall I'm hitting in the game, Isshin is just stupidly difficult[/cross]

I was never a Dark Souls pro, but man, is this game kicking my ass :/
Any tips? I've beating the drunken boss, and I'm now up against Butterfly and the big Ogre in the village. Can't beat either (Butterfly I can understand but I can't beat the Ogre even with a stealth attack first, his run & grab is one of the most infuriating moves I've ever seen in a game). I'm really starting to dislike this game and I was really looking forward to it so it's a double disappointment so far :(

Demon of Hatred
I'm just hacking away at the foot of a thing, praying the camera doesn't jump around too much and then get hit by a stomp that lands somewhere near me cause the thing did an instant 45° turn while stomping down.
Just terrible, I was going to kill all the bosses but this isn't fun for me, just bad.
And of course it has three phases. Worst boss in the game so far, easily.
Just on pure levels of frustration and being infuriating, last boss in Sekiro is one of the worst boss fights From has done so far. I just dont think it is a fun and fair fight tbh.
And yes Demon of Hatred is also a shit fight too. I dont find these long and shitty fights fun at all.
Camera is shit on last boss too, it unlocks and flies all over the place when the boss goes super mobile and flies around so you cant see or track shit. So the camera is basically a boss too..
Funny thing is i have watched youtube videos and read tactics exactly on what to do here it is just impossible for me to execute these things flawlessly, which you have to a degree of atleast 80-90% to do this thing. Well i simply just can't and aren't good enough for it.

Final optional boss down. Didn't even get a full level, heh. Ended up not needed to ressurect and had even some healing charges left.
Put me in the "not a big fan" camp. If only my left index finger stiffens and hurts, if it gets used so little in such a tense enviroment. #oldpeoplewoes
But I'm sure there is a more proper way to it, then the running in circles I did.

These things worked on me
- Do the other boss first if you haven't to get a bit more dmg.
- Take your time. She is a good for learning.
- Try to deflect, but if that doesn't work blocking is essential. Know that keeping block up heals posture faster.
- Her perilous attacks are pretty easy to distinquish from each other. If she uses one while up, you should dodge (or hit her with a shuriken). If she uses one while down, jump and jump again do do posture dmg.
- On the second phase, run around till she snaps her fingers and the phantoms will turn into homing projectiles. Hide behind a pillar and keep block up.
- She will also use some projectiles. Try to dodge to the side or behind a pillar. Use block if you are in a bad spot.

Did you get the Frozen Tears from her? Did you actually give it to Kuro at the very end?
If you got the items needed for the various ending, the ending you get is decided by what you give.

This also means you can get the achivements for 3 endings in one run if you save scum.
I dont know what to do...,
I have beated both the Guardian Ape fights and last i did was clear out Hidden Forest.
How do i progress further?

"Okay, I'm making some progress, this is going well I thi..."
*camera suddenly spins around while the boss charges me and kills me in one hit*
Not even gonna try this boss again, this is just luck, nothing else. If the camera decided to be functional it might be doable, if annoying and not fun.
But then it decided to just freak out 10 minutes in, nothing I can do to prevent this, nothing I can do to counter it. Might happen 30 seconds in, might happen right as I'm about to land the last hit who knows.

Solid progress yesterday. Cleared Hirata Estates and reached the top of Ashina Castle. It only took me ~15 tries to beat the boss there. I may not be the absolute worst at this game.
Rankings, eh? Let's see.
Bloodborne > Dark Souls ≥ Demon's Souls > Dark Souls II > Sekiro > Dark Souls III
Love them all.

Wait a minute is this what I think it is?
Bottom of the water in Fountainhead Palace where you pick up a prayer bead in a chest and where there are two headless is a dead skeleton carp covered in worms? Is this the source of the infested undying? The temple monks etc being "blessed by the worm".

I would focus on the ogre's path, it is far easier than ladyB. There are some evesdrops you can do to learn it's weakness. Some back an forth to th dream world and exploration should help as well.
It tells you in the description. Usually it sonething like "Hold down the button to charge up the attack."
From all the things Sekiro inherits from the Souls games, the fucking camera should have been fixed by now. I died so many times because of the camera already... really annoying.
Are you for real with that spoiler? FFS I've only just spoken with him.
Well i dont have the personal ability to just do it. Probably won't see the end of the game thanks to this shitty fight.
I mean i regress at the game now and get stuck on the
Genichiro
Try Ichimonji Double. You can punish him severely with it and cancel his scream which will let you stay close to him and deal more damage.

to me it's one of the best boss battles I've ever had the pleasure of experiencing
you definitely need to learn the patterns though, but when you do and you steamroll through him it's sooo satisfying.
I know all the patterns etc and have watched YT videos, tactics etc. Still, i just can't and it is just boring to redo the same fucking beginning phase again over and over. So no it is the worst fight in any from soft game i have played. Nothing during the fight feels fun and satisfying either just cheap, fast and idiotic.
I mean if you are really fucking good at the game and can improve and get better i understand if it can be a good fight but for me. It is just BAD.
Daaaamn
What I did was
was go check on ger right before the last boss fight, doors to her chamber were
closed so I assumed that there's nothing more to get from her. Went back after the fight but before starting NG+ and she gave me the frozen tears :( Well fuck.

all i can say is dont give up...look at me i was stuck for 8 hours or more at that fucker :p
I am this "--" close to just dropping this shit game and give up. It is just frustrating as all hell and i get too easily triggered because i dont improve on jack shit. Instead i regress and get stuck again and earlier stupid shit...

It's a boss that takes everything you've learned at that point and challenges you with one final difficult exam. It's hard a fuck, but there's nothing unfair about it, just keep going at it and memorize those attack patterns.
Now I'm really curious about the last boss. I only fought him 3 times and got to the end of the second phase and things seemed hard but not insane. Is the third phase just broken? I had a lot of fun with him so far.
It's such an integral part and especially in a game where one mistake might kill you it's insane that they can't get it working properly after 5 games.
Yeah, From deserves so much more shit for their camera than they get.

I stayed closer to him, sidestepping grabs, using firecrackers, and hacking away. He's one of the few I can see feeling overwhelmed because just blocking to figure out patterns at first doesn't work as well. Keep at it.
Also if you rush up on him when he's still shackled, come up to him on his left. Like walk right into his side and you get the first deathblow sign. No needing to wait for him to de-aggro after he breaks free. Saves time. You'll get it.
I think those are the same as the "Truly Precious Bait you can feed to the Carp.
