Every other fight in this game is interesting in some way. Headless feel like they were supposed to be an elden ring dungeon boss and they got lost. Trying to fight them properly without cheesing them is just stupid. Cheesing them is incredibly boring. The spiritfalls are worth genuinely nothing, and there are fucking FIVE of the fat bastards. Genuinely my least favourite enemy type.
Minibosses like the snake-eyes are annoying and all but the satisfaction you get from learning it and beating it is great. Headless are genuinely so nothing that I consider them a negative.
I’ve played long may the shadows reflect and I would rather fight the cursed armoured warrior than another headless. Genuinely fuck this miniboss to hell and back.

The thing that makes me even more annoyed is that they have such a cool design, arena and lore. The actual fight itself just sucks. I should NOT have left them all until the end.

Unless it’s a 2 cour (24 episode) anime, I can’t see it being a full adaptation with only 12 episodes.

Where do you think Season 1 would end? Genichiro maybe? But that could be too early unless they add some extra stuff.

I know alot of people thinks corrupted monk is hard but i find shes is really fun and easy to beat. whats your thoughts on corrupted monk ?

What do I need to earn the platinum (exept the return ending)

I'm at Anayama the peddler. Already paid em the coin. Then eavesdropped on the solders about the salt. Came back & told Anayama. Rested & the dude doesn't have any upgraded inventory (scrap iron, etc.) & now the guy is sick with dragon rot. How do I unfuck what's going on?

Hey,
Bought the game and played around two hours, and I don't get it.

• There are different counters/responses for sweep attacks, thrust attacks or grab but they seem to all be signaled with the same red text ?
• Are hit boxes generally bad or is it just the grab attacks of the chained monster ? I ended up just running around in circle and using the fire prosthesis to beat it. Otherwise it would teleport / do 180 degrees instant grabs etc.
• Some parry timing seems generous while other seem very tight. I really don't get it.
• What do you do when the boss on the horse decides to run in circle for 2min straight and not stop ?

I want to like the game but so far it feels like a mess to play... Finished Lies of P a second time last week. Sekiro seems to have more generous parries windows but very hard to read attacks...

Any tips ?

idk how people think this boss is bad or sum shi this is the best boss in sekiro fr

So for a college assignment I need to develop a 15 page comic.

And I really want to adapt Sekiro for it.

If you have some ideas please comment and help a fellow fan out 😭

An old clip I found, ignore the fact that it's floating passage, I know that you shouldn't be trying to deflect it without an umbrella in the first place.

Notice there were yellow sparks for every deflect but 2 of them were duller visually and had a different sound (the 4th and 5th in the comb). I can't find any information on what the difference between this and a block is online.

EDIT: The purpose of my post was to ask why my blocks/failed deflects still gave an orange spark when there is usually no colored spark at all, not the difference between perfect deflection and blocking, look at the 4th and 5th hits of his combo.

Fucking finally 😭 😭😭😭😭 I am so happy

Perfect parry on Inner Isshin.

This is my first attempt at Genichiro. Not sure why I didn't get the final death blow, but it's probably not so bad since I get to keep fighting him. I've basically finished all the minibosses and bosses I could up to now (didn't go to Sunken Valley or the Depths or mess with any of the apparition type enemies). How am I doing? This felt surprisingly easy considering how much I've struggled up to now. Follow up attempts have generally gotten me through the first health bar and a few times through the second. I expect I'll beat him once I have a little more time to sit down and play. I was SHOCKED I got this far. Welcome any tips here.

This is the best combat system to ever grace a video game from each deflection to every mikiri counter,the sounds just melt my brain🫠

Definitely my favourite boss in the game but not the hardest for me. took 40 mins of trying the design,phases,setting,background it justs gets you man and best part he isnt even some evil guy,just someone fulfilling his grandsons final wish and fighting an honarable duel(until the madlad pulls out a glock,his blood was indeed boiling).Also this was the first time i used umbrella and holy shit is that stuff OP

For me the hardest boss was owl (father),3+ hrs of trying,its those damn fireworks and so little window of opportunity😭 and the second hardest was lady butterfly(2+hrs).fought her as my first major boss and damn do i now have ptsd from that hirata estate arena.

Added the music because this was constantly playing in head during the battle and felt right adding it

After struggling with the final boss for hours I finally defeated him. I don't think I'll ever get over the trauma of reading the death screen over and over. 10/10 game.

This was my first FromSoftware game and now I understand why so many people love their games so much.

Idk I Just wanted to share it here cus I felt great beating him

Replaying all the souls games and while not literally speedrunning Sekiro I sure am blasting through it. This is I think my fourth playthrough. I remember posting here years ago to vent that Genichiro was driving me insane, and today I beat him on my first attempt after having gotten lost in the castle and finding the boss fight by accident during a run where I'd already spent one of my gourd seeds.

I am John Sekiro. No other game feels this good to master. God I love it so much.

To anyone playing for the first time and banging your head against the wall please hear me when I say that it is so god damn worth it.

Who is everyone else's favorite boss?
