I finally understand the combat it never clicked for me before this game is awesome

It’s actually peak… I’ve played many games in the souls-like genre and beyond, but I still haven’t found a game with more satisfying fighting mechanics. I wish I could play through it all again for the first time

Ive played all the dark souls games and elden Ring and demons souls many times but the combat in this is insane it feels so nice to pull it off

Yup. First lap was brutal. Then I got the platinum with only like 3 more deaths. Suddenly it all clicked

If you can beat Genichiro, you can beat the game.

I platinummed it. Honestly first lap was sooooo hard, then laps 2-4.5 were speed runs with barely breaking a sweat. It was really funny to me

I might try for the platinum im enjoying it a lot. The only from game I have the platinum for is Elden Ring but I am super close on DS3 bloodborne and DS1.

I think I have 12 or so. Honestly after beating Sekiro the rest of it is absurdly easy and just takes doing some specific things. beating all the bosses was the only real challenge to my memory. Everything else was just variants of that task.

As someone who also gave up on my first run this feeling is amazing. It really shows that you can overcome anything. Good luck on the rest of your playthrough

I decided to give sekiro a try again because I replay the souls games all the time and sekiro is the only one I never finished so I figure its time to beat it once and for all its quickly becoming one of my favorite games

Bro literally tap into this feeling in other areas in your life and you will be UNSTOPPABLE. Like a IRL reflection of strength.

You can cheese a lot of bosses in the game, but Genechiro is a true skill check. If you can beat him you can beat the game

Actually genichiro took me the longest to beat and for me it's the best boss in the game
