    Из всех попыток 5 поиграть и понять, влиться в игру, замедление геймплея и добавленная минимальная сложность не спасла меня от доминации противников. Фанат боевки Batman Arkham series и надеялся на схожий экспириенс доминации над противниками и ожидал зрелища. Как говорится: ваши ожидания - ваши проблемы. Зрелище есть, но оно добивается немеренным вложением времени в получение опыта и ощущения геймплея. Схожий процесс был у меня в Секиро, но если Секиро я прошел несколько раз и кайфанул, то эту игру я не смог понять и был уничтожен дойдя только до второго босса. Самое забавное, что даже слоумо (с игрой не проводились никакие манипуляции, честно) не помогло реагировать. Автор слоупок, игра интересная, но не для слабонервных и терпеливых.    … Expand

    Gameplay is good. Graphics okay. Kind of short but very challenging. Few improvements could be made but overall not a bad game. Lenght about 10 maybe 15 hours if you want to master it which is probably the best way to play.

    You are going to suffer, and you better like it.

    Ever wondered how a kung fu movie would look like if it was playable? Just play this monstrosity of a game.
    It's hard, it's cinematic, it's fluid. Crazy learning curve? You bet. Button mashing won't take you far, but learning timing and making smart decisions will be rewarded. Truly an empowering game.

    Buen juego entretenido desde el inicio, la verdad me atrapo su estilo de cartoon , juego divertido y rapido para pasar el rato, no es tan dificil si te adaptas a las mecanicas que solo son 2 ,

    Really fun game. Takes a while to get used to, but after that you'll breeze through most stuff. Only gripe is that there not that much re-playability.

    The game is really beautiful, and the combat is challenging but feels good. The camera work makes you feels like you're in a kung fu movie.
    However, the difficulty gets very steep from the beging, it's a good thing they added difficulty levels in the updates to make your entry in the game easier.

    Terrible game, the most disgusting combat system I've ever seen, opponents break through your block, the game almost does not react when you try to use combos, and so on.
    Also the most flared plot that could be taken as a basis - I have to avenge my father and no one will stop me because I am the strongest among all and blah blah blah.
    The game could have a lot of potential, but it's **** up.

    Incredibly fun combat, with super satisfying animations and some brilliant boss fights. My only complaint is that I really wanted more. Very much looking forward to a sequel.

    Forgettable story and a ridiculous aging mechanic adding artificial difficulty. Sifu sports one of the best combat I've seen in a video game to date but it's sad that the game has no real normal mode, as easy being ridiculously easy and the rest just being as frustrating as any other Souls-like there is. Proceed with caution, the game is not for the casual player.

    You lose interest in the game pretty quickly. The first trailers weren't bad, but the game itself ended up being boring.

    Very fun combat but not much else. Very short and not much incentive to replay. There is some jank and missteps in the combat but when working as intended 95% of the time its great

    Genuine fun. Demanding but rewarding. Love the animation, the feeling, how the story unravel by finding clues and returning to previous levels. So good!

    It's a nice arcadey fighter with a nice level of difficulty, but the lack of progression at times feels frustrating.

    Великолепный beat em up в духе восточных единоборств. С большим удовольствием убил несколько вечеров. Для полного прохождения необходимо перепроходить одни и те же локации по нескольку раз, что может поднадоесть. Но в целом бешеная динамика и хорошее звуковое сопровождение дарят незабываемые эмоции :)))Великолепный beat em up в духе восточных единоборств. С большим удовольствием убил несколько вечеров.

    While I appreciate the intention, too many frustrations make the gameplay ultimately tiresome and rarely satisfying.

    Infuriating but fun game, the graphics and the design is 10/10 especially the museum level, combat is insanely good and spectacular other games should use elements from this game.

    Intense and bleeding with style. If you're into beat 'em ups and Asian cinema, this is a no-brainer. It's a rare combination that's even more rare because of how good it is.

    It's been a while since I've seen a loud one that reminded me of sleeping dogs so much, this game just isn't worth a 10 because I like it too much and the game is hard as ****

    I think the action is too complicated and does not bring any pleasure. Even when you win, you don't feel like a winner. It feels like there is no plot here at all, and it does not tighten at all.

    Sifu es el juego que nadie pidió pero que todos necesitábamos.
    Después de tantas historias pretenciosas, mundos abiertos llenos misiones repetitivas, batallas de jefes que mas que un desafío parecen un tramite y secuelas de remakes de secuelas remasterizadas, llega Sifu con una propuesta mas apegada a los juegos de la vieja escuela de las arcades pero con distintos toques únicos.

    The was a really fun ride for me. The difficulty is perfectly balanced. BTW i played this when it came out not with the difficulty options. This game requires you to master the game moves and learn enemy patterns just like the souls game but it's not that brutal. The animations are so fluid and every punch has some weight in it. My only disappointment was that it was only 10 hours long. IThe was a really fun ride for me. The difficulty is perfectly balanced. BTW i played this when it came out not with the difficulty options.

    awesome combat system and environments. Very few bugs. The aging idea as lives is well executed, and works well for the roguelite aspect of the game.
    The team who made this game was attacked by jason "the cockroach" (((schreier))) without any merit, proven by the fact that the game is fantastic.

    The longnose "journalist" feasts in sowing dissent, and should be disregarded

    The game's true action peaks are not in the boss parts (where it's more about epicentres of frustration), but in the mass brawls that match the best scenes from films like Raid or Kill Zone. Actually, it's even better, because here you are in the lead role and you take everyone on in a very personal and dynamic and vigorous way. [Issue#320]

    Sifu is still a solid action game that feels tailor-made for those willing to put in the time to learn the systems. The subsequent patches have opened up the game to more players who lean on either side of the difficulty spectrum, but it remains challenging even if you try to make the game as easy as possible. The main adventure is a more than satisfying romp thanks to the deep fighting system. The new Arenas mode adds loads more life to the game, even if your only interest is seeing which movies get referenced in a given scenario. Players on both the Xbox platforms and Steam are rewarded for their patience with a very good game, while the Arenas mode alone gives owners on other platforms and stores a big reason to return to Sifu.

    High difficulty accentuates every problem, like wonky camera, weird timings and unpredictable invincibility frames of enemy attacks. But at its highs, Sifu is incredibly dynamic, picturesque and rewarding, a great companion for a nostalgia trip to the VHS era. [Issue#259, p.52]
