    Another game that tries to imitate God of War, but refuses to learn from Sony's example. Expect tons of frustration from the camera swinging around randomly, which is especially aggravating when fighting near cliff ledges with instant death.

    Could also use a significant control overhaul -- Devil May Cry lets you fluidly switch between multiple weapons mid-combo, while Sekiro feels

    Keep trying to like this but I find it really boring.

    Every fight I've engaged in is a parry fest, so many buttons I keep pressing the wrong ones and trying to find the right way to go amidst all the dingyness is a real pain.

    I think it's got some good idea's that were put together haphazardly. Tenchu on the PS One is better.

    A drab and tedious DS rip off, without any of the quirky customisation that made that game interesting by balancing it against the difficulty. Last time I listen to any "game of the year" hype.

    Refund.

    BTW: PC port is awful, simply terribly, eg. I have many fps, no delay on screen, but input lag is real and exist. How to beat this kind of game with input lag? Please, From Software, tell me how do it, I will be grateful!

    Now I begin to understand why Sekiro has a new publisher.

    I registered on MetaCritic only to say how I am deeply disappointment.

Может еще роль сыграло то что мне совершенно не интересен сеттинг игры, не знаю... Так ждал игру и такое разочарование, прям обидно.

    Эта игра незаслуженно получила игру года и такие высокие оценки со стороны критиков. и сейчас я постараюсь убедить в этом и вас.
    Начнем с плюсов "Sekiro: Shadow Die Twice", которых я нашел не много:
    1. Это визуальный стиль игры. Сюда входит оформление инвентаря, рельеф местности, дизайн персонажей, для кого-то может понравится и музыка. 2. Озвучка персонажей. Приятно услышать

    1. Это визуальный стиль игры. Сюда входит оформление инвентаря, рельеф местности, дизайн персонажей, для кого-то может понравится и музыка.
    2. Озвучка персонажей. Приятно услышать оригинальную озвучку для Японского сеттинга.
    На этом плюсы для меня кончились, и начинаются минусы.
    1. Боевая система. Игра намеренно заставляет нас играть через блок и парирование, но как к этому относиться серьезно если враг больше нас в 5 раз и его оружия размером с дом? Логично было бы уворачиваться от таких врагов, но увы это не так. И конечно же бесконечная полоска здоровья, игра как бы намекает, что ты должен играть так как хочет разработчик и сносить полоску выносливости врага.
    2. Отзывчивость "Секиро". Протагонист ощущается как медленный кусок груши для битья. Блок и парирование он ставит на 1 секунду позже нажатия на кнопку, что в таких играх просто несправедливо по отношению к игроку. Увороты в игре сломаны и лучше их вообще не использовать, враг с большей вероятностью попадет в вас.
    3. Камера. Самый сильный босс в этой игре это ваша камера, которая работает еще хуже чем в серии "Dark souls". Постоянные залеты за текстуры и за врага. И что самое веселое это то что самые сложные бои происходят в узких локациях.
    4. Веревка. Я правда не понимаю как она работает. В одних и тех же ситуациях ты можешь притянуться, а можешь и не притянуться. Видимо это известно лишь самому мастеру Миядзаки.
    5. Интерес. В игру абсолютно не интересно играть и исследовать мир. Если в "Dark souls" мы искали различные оружия, которые имеют свои мувсеты, искали заклинания и экипировку со своими уникальными эффектами. То тут мы всегда находим леденцы и бесполезные используемые предметы. Лишь изредка мы будем натыкаться на действительно интересные вещи, такие как новые техники и новые протезы.
    6. Прыжки. Прыжки сделаны в лучших традициях FromSoftware, то есть через заднее место. Персонаж очень часто будет прыгать туда куда вы не хотите.
    Несмотря на то что игру я считаю плохой, я советую вам поиграть в нее и убедиться в этом самим, либо же убедиться для себя в обратном.

I did not expect the arcadiness of the game but also did not struggle much - and just to be clear, I don't get frustrated with From games. I beat all From games including BloodBorne and Demon Souls, and Sekiro to me was the weakest in terms of the feel and quality in game engine as a whole.

    I envy players who like this game a lot, maybe someday I will change my mind...

    As a massive From Software fan, I would advise for the new fans to be cautious going into Sekiro coming from Souls games, it is a very different game in terms of the movement and combat feel. There is a lot of zealotry going on and people will dislike/downvote into oblivion if you say the game can be unsatisfying for some people, especially for hardcore Souls game fans. I understand that people feel great satisfaction from beating this game, but to me it seems that a lot of people praises this game automatically just because it is a From Software game. Were it from any other company, the initial reviews would have been much harsher, and Sekiro fans will not accept that reality. That's why you don't see negative reviews for this game....

    I was ready to do multiple NG runs of the game with different setups and load-outs but the game doesn't offer any variety. what you start out with is what you get. The prosthetic tools while at first glance seem to be the variety of the game they are just lackluster and not worth using since they are basically high risk for no reward during combat.

    Just another example of why you should never buy into the hype of a new game and pay release date prices for it.

    For a game that prides itself on combat mechanics and tactical reflexes, Sekiro falls far short.

How about instead, just let me fight all the enemies and kill them like a normal action game without the Alice in Wonderland syndrome? I gave it a few hours to see what the hype was all about. It should be a textbook lesson in poor game design that should be avoided at all costs with its counterpoint being Ninja Gaiden Black about what to strive for in a great action game. Expand

    TLDR - Bloodborne, but they took out everything that made Bloodborne work, and set it in Japan, and also modelled it around the most finicky combat tactics from the Soulsborne series (namely parrying, which for some bizarre reason the fanboys try to argue is not actually a core, essential part of the gameplay loop despite being exactly that) FromSoft has continued their degeneration fromTLDR - Bloodborne, but they took out everything that made Bloodborne work, and set it in Japan, and also modelled it around the most finicky combat tactics from the Soulsborne series (namely parrying, which for some bizarre reason the fanboys try to argue is not actually a core, essential part of the gameplay loop despite being exactly that) FromSoft has continued their degeneration from tough-but-fair (Demon's Souls, mostly. Dark Souls 1, 95%) to Tough-and-****-the-player. The game plays nicely when it works, but unless you're a major masochist with hyperactive reflexes, I can't recommend it.

    Full text - Sekiro just doesn't do enough right to reach that same point of enjoyment. Your health is too low to start with, to the point where the first non-tutorial boss (Chained Ogre) can very easily knock off 50-75% of your health, roughly, meaning that if you take a single hit from your average enemy prior, he will kill you in one hit. Even if you live, you have a high chance of being flung off the map, which gets rid of the last of your health, making your respawn token's worthless. This is exacerbated when you reach Shinobi Hunter Eshin of Misen, who can take you from full health to dead faster than you can blink, you are given the opprotunity to pick up the Mikiri Counter combat skill, however it is damn near impossible to get it to work in the moment. This is both made worse by the fact that any attacks that result in a synced animation (grab attacks for instance) have some serious phantom range, to the point where you can dodge directly behind the Chained Ogre's lunging grab attack, and still get grabbed as the ogre yeets himself 180 degrees and grabs you anyway, the same thing can happen with Enshin. In no particular order I personally experienced multiple instances of being knocked out of the air by attacks that very clearly did not hit me and being grabbed out of the air by attacks that very clearly did not connect.

    I could go on about other things, about how the game can't tell if it's trying to be a fast paced action game or a stealth game, how the combat just doesn't match the game and it's difficulty in conjunction with your pitiful amounts of help, the game itself being generally misleading out or outright deceitful, like how it makes it clear early one that dodging is key, yet with most even basic enemies in the game, dodging is no guarentee that the enemy won't just spin in place like a top and hit you anyway. I could go on about how fighting more than one enemy at a time, which will happen very early on in the Hirata estate becausethe fact that enemies can see for miles is an absolute train wreck, or about how everything happens so quickly in a game that demands caution and precision making the game a miserable experience for those without the reflexes of a coked-up squirrel.

    In short, like Dark Souls 3, it suffers from Bloodborne syndrome, albeit to an outrageously higher degree. Fast paced combat that has no place in the game, lacking all the systems that made it work such as the Rally system. There IS an upgrade in the first technique scroll that allows to recover health on a deathblow, but that isn't going to help you because you generally don't get that many deathblows when it would be the most useful (i.e boss fights), and knowing the pitiful amount of health you get at the start, it probably would be uselss anyway.

    Hopefully by the time Elden Ring comes around, Miyazaki and co. will finally be over the hyper actively difficult game play that plagued Sekiro and Dark Souls 3 to a drastically lesser extent, and realize that it's just not fun having your skull caved in by relentless, artificial difficulty of homing attacks, low health at the start, and dying in 2-3 hits, and parry centered combat despite the fanboys screeching otherwise. If you're a horrendous Sadomasochist, I can see you getting mileage out of this. Otherwise, I really cannot bring myself to recommend this like I would FromSoft's previous work.

    But if you manage to kill anybody, just walk behind him and press attack, which is instakill. And if you fail that, get ready for the Assassin's Creed parry style. Just keep holding block, wait for enemy to hit you and then press attack button to get another instakill.
    End up with activated trainer, because you won't have nerves for this sh*t and just go trough the locations, because you've already paid for this.

You can stand at 1 spot in a boss fight and spam Parry until the boss loses enough posture, no need to move and dodge and stuff like that. Vwry disappointed overall Expand

    Yes its challenging and its not for a casual player. So be prepared for a lot of try and error.
    The gore and blood is, for a young playerbase, very pleasing. But as I am a little older gamer I just find it annoying and not really helping. Dont get me wrong, I loved stuff like that when I was young too. But I just dont anymore! The boss mechanics are shallow and not entertaining at all.

After you figured out how the games work it becomes a chore and killing is a repetition of the same procedure over and over! The story is meh and not the main reason why people buy this game. So if you are just someone who wants to brag that he has beaten a hard game thats deffinelty a game for you. Otherwise its a spin off of dark souls in a new costume.

    As a fan of the previous From software titles, I had high hopes for Sekiro. Sadly, I am very disappointed with the game for various reasons.

    The combat is very restrictive. You don't have weapons, armor or classes to choose from. You have one weapon and a few tools which only have niche uses. The parrying mechanic which could be skipped entirely in the previous games is now the core
    As a fan of the previous From software titles, I had high hopes for Sekiro. Sadly, I am very disappointed with the game for various reasons.

    The combat is very restrictive. You don't have weapons, armor or classes to choose from. You have one weapon and a few tools which only have niche uses. The parrying mechanic which could be skipped entirely in the previous games is now the core mechanic you are required to use constantly. In other words, fights are based on split second reactions to what your enemy is doing. This alone wouldn't be bad if it weren't for two reasons.

    First, this mechanic simply doesn't work well with crowds of enemies. If you need to pay close attention to what your opponent is doing and time your reaction appropriately, you cannot handle multiple foes at once, especially when some of them are off camera. So you end up running away which is far too easy in this game. This makes you inclined to just skip minions by running past them until you get to the next shrine.

    The second problem is that bosses simply take too long to defeat when you play the game the way it is supposed to be played. I'm sure that many speedrunners have found ways to cheese bosses in order to kill them quickly, but if you actually use the reactive gameplay of Sekiro, aren't perfect and don't absolutely use every opportunity you got, then some bosses will take forever and are just exhausting or even boring. A good example is the giant ape boss, who is very easy to defeat if you take your time, but takes so freaking long that the hardest thing about him is not to get impatient and rush in because you finally want to be done with this boring grind. Furi also has quick reactive gameplay, but it is fun and exciting because the pacing is good. Imagine playing Furi but every boss had ten times the amount of health and can easily one shot you if you stop paying enough attention for just a second.

    Then there is the stealth mechanic which is an absolute joke. My guess is that the reason they put it in the game was because the combat, as mentioned before, doesn't work well with groups. So what are you supposed to do when there are groups of enemies? Sneak around them and stealth kill them one by one. This also sounds nice on paper but the implementation is horrible. The biggest problem is that you don't feel like a stealthy ninja at all. Most enemies in the game are deaf and blind. You can make loud noises right next to them or walk in their line of sight them without them noticing you. And your "stealth kill" is as loud as a gun shot. It's a joke. Not to mention that it is complely unnecessary since, as mentioned before, you can very easily just run past enemies even when they are alerted. So sneaking feels just like a waste of time and you will be seen eventually in a new area anyway because you don't know where all the enemies are positioned or which of them are blind and which aren't. So what will you do? Spend an hour trying to sneak through an area while trying to memorize all the locations and patrol routes of enemies, or just run past all of them to the next shrine which takes like five minutes?

    Graphically speaking, Sekiro is very ugly game. Drab environments, poor animation and a lack of that From Software 'polish', as if it was developed by an inferior division of the company, out of a scrapped prototype.

    The last thing I want to mention is that Sekiro doesn't feel rewarding. I played more than half of the game in hoped that the gameplay would grow on me and what annoys me the most is the feeling that I essentially didn't get anything for my trouble. If this was a Souls game then at least I would have a unique character who was formed by his many adventures by now. But in Sekiro, I still have this ugly dude who is an exact copy of everybody else's character who plays the game. Yes there are some RPG elements but I wonder why they even bothered to put them into the game. If I cannot level up at my own leisure but only when I get to certain points in the game, then the game could just balance out the damage and health of the enemies so that the initial built can be used the entire time. The game gives you the illusion of progression but when you think about it, you as a character don't progress at all. When you get to the point where you deal more damage, you also get to the point where enemies have more health so it all evens out and is essentially meaningless.

    Overall a horrible game that is overrated because of From's reputation rather than because of its own merits.

    After finishing the game on PC thoroughly (defeated all bosses, mini-bosses and explored every nook and cranny) and expecting the most difficult samurai-style combat game in years, I was extremely disappointed and consider this title FromSoftware's worst. While an interesting combat game at first glance, it quickly turns into Dance Dance Revolution.

    After finishing the game on PC thoroughly (defeated all bosses, mini-bosses and explored every nook and cranny) and expecting the most difficult samurai-style combat game in years, I was extremely disappointed and consider this title FromSoftware's worst. While an interesting combat game at first glance, it quickly turns into Dance Dance Revolution.

    The good:
    - Wonderful setting and graphic design
    - Japanese as the default language to really nail the atmosphere
    - Unique combat design
    - High difficulty, truly delivering the punishing experience which fans in my opinion wrongly attributed to DS.
    - The Umbrella. Fun and interesting, if a bit overpowered compared to other equipment

    The bad:
    1. Combat is purely based on reflexes, like a sport, while strategic intelligence is not at all rewarded. Slow enemies turn on a dime using magical homing weapons. Spear bearers are just as dangerous up close and attack just as quickly. Only archers have a weakness congruent with real-life physics (weak armor and melee) but they're barely a threat even at range as projectiles are magically blocked.
    2. Zero potential for immersion/role playing in combat. Real-life katana battles are quick, often settled in seconds as the katana's purpose is to wound the opponent critically before he can retaliate. High skill, high reward like in the Bushido series. Sekiro battles are long, drawn-out boxing matches. Sekiro dies quickly but he can fully restore his wounds more than 10 times each battle, and revive a few times to boot.
    3. Stealth is an option only during unimportant battles (riffraff and certain optional minibosses) but tedious and basic. Sekiro is supposedly a spy/assassin yet he fights like Rambo. The game may have started as a Tenchu reboot but shares few similarities.
    4. Sekiro's base moveset is extremely limited when compared to other hack-and-slash games. There's a hack, a stab and a slightly different version while sprinting.
    5. Minimal customization. Sekiro can equip one special move and one piece of equipment at a time.
    6. Combat basically comes down to "rock, paper, scissors" reactions to "perilous attacks", deflecting the standard attacks with moderate timing difficulty and being as aggressive as possible while the opponent rests. There is one DS-esque boss exception but in my opinion that was the least enjoyable boss in the game due to Sekiro's limited moveset and equipment.
    7. Enemy combat rules are completely unlike Sekiro's combat rules. Therefore, learning what kills Sekiro doesn't give any insight into how to kill opponents. It doesn't need to be fair, but it does need to make sense.

    So far it's still a 4/10 game. A good challenge at least. But here's the awful:
    - Sekiro is fully animation locked during most of his moves, unable to control his body in any way. Key presses made during this time are sometimes discarded and sometimes queued. Apparently FromSoftware wants us to experience how it feels to have Parkinson's. Point made: It's horrific and maddening.
    - Full immortality during deathblows. No punishment whatsoever for taking the time to disembowel an enemy, simply "because it looks cewl", yet we're stuck watching that animation over and over and over. Tenchu games had more kill animations on the PS2 with a chance to dismember.
    - The PC port is ghastly. It has a 0.1 to 0.3 second input lag depending on area, and yes my PC is more than capable. Combined with the animation locking Sekiro is frequently unresponsive during critical moments.
    - Human mini-bosses can often be kited by having them move far from their "home" position. They won't defend themselves and slowly walk back. Horrible AI design.
    - Target lock is lost when Sekiro is cornered, a natural occurrence during arena-based fights (including bosses), leaving him entirely helpless. This is clearly a bug as there is no sensible reason for a trained Shinobi to behave so irrationally during a crucial moment in battle.

    Lastly, for an offline game it sports a strangely pronounced community. As is to be expected of a sports game it has attracted a horde of game-jocks so proud of having pushed the sequenced buttons that they wail "git gud" in chorus at anyone who disliked any aspect of the game, in a thinly veiled attempt to brag. The reason I completely finished it is to prove them wrong. And I did - this isn't about skill.

    I've seen toxic communities before but none quite as stubborn, uniform and unimaginative as this one. This is why I consider any downvotes on this review as upvotes - thanks for the "support" in advance.

    In conclusion, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is in my opinion one of the worst entries in the hack-and-slash genre so far, a failed stealth game and a failed PC port. The difficulty is purely technical in nature and deserves no credit from a game design perspective, as it fails to challenge meaningful human abilities.

    Что разочаровало: игра не работает так, как задумано разработчиками. Объясню на примере. Предположим, вы деретесь с боссом. Над ним загорается красный иероглиф, когда он будет делать сильную атаку. Но не всегда, когда вы нажимаете нужную кнопку, вы блокируете или отражаете эту атаку. Я думаю, это связано с кривыми программистами, кто работает в компании FromSoftware. Потому что написать такие кривущие тайминги атак - надо постараться. Так же разочаровала стелз механика, которая здесь типо есть, но на самом деле ее нет. А так же слишком большое количество обезьян (могли бы разнообразить животный мир, и добавить тигров и медведей)
    Мне очень нравится серия дарксоулс, но помоему с момента релиза 3ей части и секиро разработчик сменил весь состав программистов, иначе я не могу объяснить, почему игра, которая задумана как неплохая и интересная, выпущена с таким плохим качеством и таймингами
    Я разочарован

    Fromsoftware's combat masterpiece. The most satisfying combat in any game I've ever played. Play this game.

    Guess it's not for me. I just could not get into the combat and ended up refunding this after almost two hours of hitting a wall with the first (mini) boss. Controls are absolute garbage and I would love to strangle the devs with my mouse cord.

    Obviously. Too. Difficult. Not because of the player, but because of mechanics such as physics, controls and absent blocking (compare it to God of War). No way of changing it. It's just made with some willing to make people break their controllers. Played it for 25 hours and got nothing except of corrupted nervous system, heart rate of 200 per minute dozens of times and seeing someObviously. Too. Difficult.

Played it for 25 hours and got nothing except of corrupted nervous system, heart rate of 200 per minute dozens of times and seeing some beautiful sights, after which you start anew to hate this game and its creators as it is not for players, but the players' health is a sacrifice for it. And you shall pay for this! Lol, thanks, play this for yourself, perverted freaks who made it.
    You died.
    You died.
    You died.
    You died.
    You spent a couple of minutes just to get to the boss as you did every time... and died.
    Again.
    And again.
    And again.

    Why should someone play what does not want you to play it? Especially when Ghost of Tsushima exists in this world.

    There’s no leveling (in Soulsborne sense of the word), no covenants, no multiplayer, no variety in armor and weapons. It could be written off a stylistic choice, if the rest of the game didn’t feel very similar to the previous FromSoftware games. But it does, so Sekrio comes across as rather shallow.

    Sekiro Shadows Die Twice is a milestone in the genre. It offers complex, stunning and precise sword fights and duels that its predecessors lacked, and from which its successors will have to keep up with. You no longer simply learn by repeatedly and unfairly dying, but you refine your talents as a player. You seek unique methods to overcome each boss, rather than just rolling at the right time before spamming a few hits.

    Dozens of hours later, we're still not sure how we feel about it. It's a game of contradictions, open and flexible in its level design, yet resolutely strict in its combat... It is a brilliant game, that is certain. but it is often a difficult one to truly love. Naturally, we can't put it down. [Issue#332, p.104]
