    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.

    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.

    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.    … Expand

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....    … Expand

    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.

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.

    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.    … Expand

    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.
