    When you thought Sekiro would not be too hard because you finished:

    Demon's Souls
    Dark Souls 1
    Dark Souls 2
    Dark Souls 3
    Bloodborne

    Think again. It's quite challenging, and the gameplay feels different and refreshing.

    This is a game about fighting through a supernaturally tinged recreation of 16th-century Japan as a deathless assassin with a sharp blade and a weaponized prosthetic arm, but there are plenty of moments when the sword is sheathed and the game shows a quiet cinematic discipline.

    As someone that has poured many, many hours into the previous FromSoft titles, dying repeatedly until I was able to either get lucky or I was able to "git gud", I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is the only real thing Sekiro has in common with those games. You will die. A lot. Way more than twice. Just..a lot. This is not a Soulsborne game.

You will die. A lot. Way more than twice. Just..a lot. This is not a Soulsborne game. You are not some powerful knight capable of face-tanking every entity you come across. You are a ninja. The game will remind you constantly of this fact. You are free to play as dirty as you know the enemies will. Poison them, set them on fire, stab them in the butt when they are not looking and then Spider-Man away. Who cares! Just kill them before they kill you. If there is anything to take away from my rambling, it is simply this. You are shinobi. You are not a samurai or knight. So don't expect to play as one and you and this game will get along well! But you are gonna die way more than twice. The game is a gat dang liar. Expand

    I've never played Dark Souls so I have nothing to compare Sekiro to, It was hard to understand the mechanics at first but once I got the rhythm and patterns of bosses, it was actually really REALLY fun. It was quite the challenge for me, I'm not gonna lie but it felt amazing beating the game for the first time; I achieved nothing in life, but I'm proud of myself xD.

Never has a game meant so much to me. Like all the Souls, this game is pure immersion--It speaks to you in every detail. And the difficulty drives you deep into the this immersive experience, where you find yourself gritting your teeth, riveted to the screen and fighting with all your might to just stay in it a little longer. To deflect and to dodge and to land just one more hit! Time and again, Sekiro had me falling out of my chair, stunned with the realization of what I must do... Twice! The resurrection mechanic just further enriches the experience, forcing you to become the ultimate shinobi master and and not only beat a boss, but completely to annihilate it... or at the very least to just barely out-live it, surviving and succeeding by the tiniest of margins. What a game! As a Souls fan (both dark souls and various other souls-like games), this game is just a treasure. It excels in areas Dark Souls cannot. Being provided with only one main weapon means makes for a finely tuned PVE combat experience that is much more immersive than the other Souls games... and you don't have any choice about it! You are forced to master these new mechanics, and quickly find yourself grappling around, sprinting, dodging, deflecting, and then destroying enemies and bosses that will leave your breathless with their magnificence. I could say more, but I don't want to spoil it for anyone. I implore you to not watch any videos of anyone else playing this game. No streams, no youtube, no reading about it. Just play the game. You just stumbled upon the greatest 1-player game of all time. Immerse yourself in it. Enjoy the experience. Expand

    I fought Genichiro and boom baby, there's that feeling I had back in the day playing DS1 for the first time, learning a boss, improving with every death, finally breezing through phase 1 only to repeat the process for phase 2 and so on. What an epic fight that was. Finally beat him and decided to put my excitement into a review. Love this game.

    Sekiro has an extremely brutal design philosophy that defies conventional wisdom. When I heard people complaining about the difficulty of the game and how you apparently needed to "flawless" bosses/memorize movesets in order to beat them, I instinctively shrugged such complaints off. Similar statements were made about all of the previous games, and they were never true.

    After playing this game for two and a half hours, dying repeatedly to the game's first mini-boss, I contacted steam and demanded a refund for a game I simply couldn't play.

    ...but I couldn't get it out of my head.

    I got the game again for Christmas, and after finally killing that first mini-boss, I couldn't get over how I felt. I kept going, perfecting the fighting style until I reached the game's first real boss. It knocked me down again. I fought that boss over and over again until the swordplay became a lethal kind of dance. I felt invincible. After the first boss, I went onto the next one, and the next, until I completed the game's first ending. Then I played it all again, exploring the abilities, fighting styles, and story arcs that I hadn't tried before. I reached the game's truly final boss and killed it in one try because the game had trained me to fight so well. It was by far the most rewarding experience any video game has ever given me. After over 150 hours, I earned every single achievement.

    From someone who refunded this game the first day they played it, from someone who would have never been remotely interested in Japanese culture otherwise, let me tell you that Sekiro is one of a kind. Not only is the combat an art-form in and of itself, but the story is moving and the characters compelling.

    If you buy Sekiro, don't get frustrated when you hit a wall. Don't look up cheese strategies or try to savescum the game. Get back up, watch a walkthrough or two if you really need to, and vault over that wall like a f***ing shinobi. You won't regret it.

    Sekiro is not a Souls game. This can't be stressed enough. Attempt to i-frame dodge through the game and you will get your ass slapped all the way back to Lordran. While it borrows certain elements from Souls, like the checkpoint system or cryptic NPC questlines, it's pretty much its own beast. And what a beast it is.

    It's one of those good news, bad news situations. Good news: the days
    Sekiro is not a Souls game. This can't be stressed enough. Attempt to i-frame dodge through the game and you will get your ass slapped all the way back to Lordran. While it borrows certain elements from Souls, like the checkpoint system or cryptic NPC questlines, it's pretty much its own beast. And what a beast it is.

    It's one of those good news, bad news situations. Good news: the days when you needed to keep an eye on your stamina for every attack, block or dodge are over. Bad news: that doesn't mean the game is any less challenging. Quite the opposite, actually. Wolfie goes down in two hits tops, and at all times he's either heavily outnumbered or he gets crushed in the health bar measuring contest. And the absence of stats, gear and online co-op means there are no shortcuts. You won't be able to overlevel, no Solaire will come to your aid. It's either nut up or shut up.

    Luckily, there are ways to put you at a lesser disadvantage. Sekiro features a rudimentary stealth system and enough freedom to thin out your enemies' ranks one by one. Most of the times you can clear entire areas just by being sneaky. Apparently, Sekiro started out as a Tenchu game and I totally believe it, considering how far stealth will get you. But eventually a direct confrontation will be unavoidable. And where Souls games required you to only land that one parry, Sekiro demands that you time your blocks near perfectly several times per exchange. Combat is fast, fluid and demanding enough to make you break a sweat.

    While the areas are open and generally well-designed, they are not exactly eyecandy. Souls games are known for their sinister beauty, but that is largely absent in Sekiro. Some areas look flat-out rough. Only rarely will you get the urge to stop and soak in the atmosphere. A missed opportunity, really. And while the environments leave room for exploration, the absence of cool gear makes it feel strangely unrewarding. Also, due to the nature of combat you will see the same instakill moves and finishers quite often. A bit of variety would have been nice.

    Like the player, Sekiro faces its own set of challenges. Developer From Software has been around for over three decades, but only since the release of Demon's Souls the studio has gained a larger recognition in the West. Ever since, most of their games have been Souls games either directly or in spirit. Being widely known as the developer of Souls games came with the issue that they were expected to make nothing but Souls games - a curse, if you will. Sekiro marks the first time in a while that a major From Software title branches out far enough to be called its own thing - and be accepted by a large audience. With that leap of faith out of the way, it'll be exciting to see what they will come up with next.

    I love the Ninja Gaiden series. I also love all hack and slash games, and games with a Japanese flavor. It would seem that I should have liked this game, but this is a terrible shame and a slap in the face for all slasher players.
    The only thing that should be noted in the game is good graphics and design.
    Otherwise, this is one of the main disgraces of 2019. In the game, we have only one attack, the same type of katana strike. After hitting the enemy several times, you can finish it off with the same button. AI of enemies is just as bad. If they spot you, they won't leave again until they finish you off. The game is supposedly a stealth action game, but this is unacceptable for this genre. The location design is not intuitive and there are no clues about where to go. There is no location map or visual directions in the game itself.
    If you want to see some really cool Japanese action game, play Ninja Gaiden, Metal Gear Rising Revengeance, or Killer Is Dead. These games are many times better than the unfairly hyped Sekiro.

    Sekiro is the type of game that pushes you to your limits, you hate it, but then you realize you've been falling in love with it. It's one of the greatest experiences gaming has to offer, overcoming the impossible, not because of an XP system or leveling up, but because you grew up as a shinobi, your skills got better, you started getting the hang of the game, you became the shinobi.

This game isn't like a Souls game, in fact its nothing like it. If people say Dark Souls is hard, then Sekiro is unbeatable. After beating Sekiro it really put into perspective how "easy" the souls games are. People take for granted how many tools and assist's you get throughout the souls games, magic for being able to cheese bosses, buffs to speed up kills, leveling stats to close the gap, summoning help from other players. All of these tools to help you beat any obstacle thrown at you and people still call those games hard, I was one of them, but after beating Sekiro that has all changed.

    Sekiro rips away all of those tools to help you succeed and leaves you with only one thing, raw skill. The only way to beat Sekiro is to familiarize yourself with the mechanics and master them. No summons to help you fight the boss, no magic to cheese from far away, just your raw skill and determination. This game will push you to the limit, it will break you over and over again until you either push past your limits, or crumble from defeat. This game will make you relearn all over again how to play, in all honesty you'd be better off playing this game before any other souls games.

    If you're like me and so many others that have put hundreds of hours into the souls series then you will have an especially hard time with this game. All of those hours perfecting the mechanics and getting in the play-style of playing defensively, staying back and waiting will completely and utterly ruin you with this game. This game will force you to forget all of your previous knowledge and relearn everything. If you don't master the art of deflecting, counterattacking, and taking advantage of enemies you will not be able to finish this game. But once you do master those arts, oh my lord is it satisfying. Finally hitting that moment where you perfectly deflect a bosses entire chain and get the deathblow is one of the most satisfying things I have ever done in a video game. Getting to that point where you completely and utterly destroy a boss with perfect deflects and counterattacks will never cease to make me feel like a badass. This game is a master of making you feel like you are truly good at it, as well as making you feel like you are truly god awful at it. It will test your will, and if you pass, will make you feel like you can take on anything.

    It's hard, but try to not go into this game thinking its going to be another Dark Souls experience, because you will be sorely mistaken and frustrated. This is not Dark Souls, this is Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and if you don't come to terms with that then you will not enjoy this game. Great game over all though, and the combat is really satisfying, performance is good but not great, try it if you like being actually challenged and tested with all of your skill.

    So I finally picked up Sekiro expecting to get demolished, but figured I'd finally try it out. I put it off for so long because I was told it's all about the parry, and I was terrible at Dark Souls parry.

    But guess what? It's waaay easier. Just the game as a whole. Not in a "too easy" way. It's still Dark Souls hard, but the parry system is much more forgiving and I'm actually pretty good at it.

    The moral of this long post is; if you sucked at the parry in Dark Souls and are staying away from Sekiro because of it. Don't. It's awesome, and is completely different.

    It was a bit overwhelming in the very beginning for me (and I've never played a Souls game before) but after some time I got used to the flow. And when you get the rhythm, it becomes the dance.

    Fast-pacing engaging combat which requires your concentration and punishes you for your every mistake. It plays fair and teaches you to fight perfectly and if you learn your lesson it will be the most satisfying combat ever. Very fluid animations and clashing sounds which become the music. But katana is not your only weapon, you can use tons of tools fit into the prosthetic arm, both offensive and defensive. Or you can ignore them completely and only use your sword. It doesn't have the variety of customization like in an RPG, but what it has, it is made perfect.

    Yes, it's hard, it requires you to 'git gud', and you will die a lot and suffer. I had so much rage during some of the fights, yet I have never even considered a rage quit. The learning curve of the difficulty is quite balanced: once you start to feel comfy, it gives you another challenge. So you'll never get bored, even after beating the game: you can go for additional NG+ playthroughs and make the game harder (yes, harder). Just give up Kuro's charm and ring the demon bell ;D

    But besides the combat, this game has some more to offer. The stunning visuals of mountainous Japan, filled with gorgeous castles and temples, detailed armor of human warriors and fascinating creatures, which, as I suspect, are inspired by Japanese mythology. The game on the whole feels very Japanese, but it doesn't require you to know almost anything about their culture beforehand. The story is clear and quite linear, yet you can have 4 different endings. There are not so many characters, but each one of them has a story to tell. Plus some pieces of lore can be found in item descriptions and environment. If you pay attention the lore becomes more deep and complex.

    Easily one of the best (or even the best) game I've ever played. Well done, FromSoftware.

    Don't go in expecting a Soulsborne game.
    You don't get to customize your character.
    You don't get to just use any weapon.

    That doesn't mean it is bad. In fact, I think it's a brilliant move. FromSoft has set a narrative with this that makes for a -real- story to be told with the player, rather than AT the player like in other FromSoft titles.

The first two locations felt lackluster compared to the later ones and I would rather prefer it to be longer and denser with more to do. Some upgrades come so late in the game it feels meaningless to go for them. FPSAfter rage quitting back in 2019, I returned to the game this year.

    El juego esta bien aunque siento que no se logro lo mismo con bloodborne, ya dejan muy en segundo plano la historia principal y se basa de ir matando jefes que son demasiado pero demasiado dificiles, dejan mucho para la imaginacion y no ponen en terreno los detalles de la historia.

    "Git Gud" - These words have never rang truer.

Ever time you pull off a parry you feel like a badass. The level design isn't as Dark Souls 1 for example, but at the mid-point it branches out in 4 different directions to 4 different bosses. To be fair you can't complete a whole section without interacting with another one, but , in my opinion, that just encourages exploration more. The bosses are the best FromSoft has ever created and they are all distinct from each other and feel super satisfying to beat. The game, how ever near perfect it is, lacks multiplayer and a bunch of RPG elements expected in FromSoft games, but I just find the common Dark Souls stile a bit overwhelming, I personally prefer the simplicity that Sekiro offers. To wrap this up I have put around 130+ hours into this game and I love it to bits, it may not have the replay-ability as some other Soulborne stile games, but for me the core combat is fun enough to still be engaging after all this time. Also the free update they added recently has some more endgame content, other than new game + and is the most challenging thing (by far) in the game. This is a 10/10 masterpiece and is worth every cent. Good luck out there and remember to stay strong, Wolf! Expand

    Sekiro is a masterpiece! Period.
    The combat system of Sekiro is one of a kind and is truly one of the best combat system that I have ever played. Each boss is uniquely designed with their combat style, appearance, arena etc. Beating the Guardian Ape Boss, Blazing bull mini boss, Genichiro Ashina were highlights of the game for me. I'm done with this game, but, I'll definitely miss a game

    Why 9 and not 10? : However, I still prefer Dark souls 3/Demons souls over Sekiro. The ability to summon others for help. Weapon upgrades, Having a stamina bar really makes the other souls series as satisfying as Sekiro and may be more satisfying than Sekiro.

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is From Software's most polished and refined project to date. From Software's staple difficulty level is here, with the game mixing an exhilarating combat system, albeit a sometimes unfair and rough around the edges one, with beautifully crafted areas, with the end result being a memorable experience teeming with adrenaline spikes.

    Sekiro's main quality is its satisfying and rhythmic combat. Every foe encounter keeps you on your toes and makes you feel like a badass samurai. Miyazaki managed to, again, create a fantastic world, with rich lore and superb enemy design and with the newly added boss rushes, this game is a no-brainer.

The bosses can make you cry of sadness and shout with fury, when I reached in the final boss final phase, I almost killed him after 15 hours triyng, but I falled on a cliff, the fault wasn't of the game, but my, because I don't payed attention in the fight, the game never has the fault, you just need to try until you defeat them.

    Sure the world is pretty and its big, music is ok but it is the gameplay that will either pull or push the player away. This is probably the only game where I can safely say I am being biased and didn't enjoy the combat and the last boss was a test of my patience. In most other games you have at least a choice on how to deal with enemies, whether it will be different choice of weapons, range combat, different skills, stealth or just simply character / armor builds.... but not in Sekiro.

    Because of that the game really closes itself to a lot of players and you either like it or not.

    I study Japanese language and culture so this was going to be very interesting to see from the beginning and they delivered. The Sengoku period is portrayed differntely and beautifully.
    Dark souls character creation compared to the set character, was kind of a missed opportunity. But that is the single and only downside of this game.

You can really feel how you progress through the game exclusively because of your skill and not because grinding or, god forbid, lootboxes. Another thing that I like about it more that I did about Dark Souls 3 I played next, is that its fast.

    +Локации (Дворец первоисточника с его красивейшим видом- это лучшая реализация особенности японской архитектуры в играх )
    +Саундтрек (очень хорошо синергирует с происходящим во круг игрока и вписывается в сеттинг игры)
    +Сюжет (Конечно, не венец голивудского творения, но для жанра соулс лайк он более открыт для игрока и не вся история сокрыта в описании предметов в отличии предыдущих игр разработчика)
    +Боевая система(Не так проста в освоении (если для вас это первая игра в жанре SL) , но при её полном изучении вознаграждает приятной визуальной реализацией боя, чувство что это не битва, а танец) (очень сильно это видно в битве с госпожой бабочкой)
    +Боссы (имеют свои тактики, но при первом прохождении жопу вам порвут точно)
    +Турниры силы и дуэли с боссами (невероятно штука, которая выбьет все дерьмо из любого чела вне зависимости от его способности и знания механик игры, ибо боссы в этом режиме имеют слегка измененный мув сет. Под "слегка" я имею ввиду ключевые удары и фишки самого босса из за которых иногда вообще складывается ощущение что его пройти нельзя. Генетиро например может за 1 секунду пройти расстояние во всю арену и нанести 2 удара не заблокировав которые можно умереть имея полное хп)
    Минусы:
    -Начальное управление (LB и RB при блоке и ударе (играю на геймпаде от хуана) просто не удобны и лучше забиндить на LT и RT (на самом деле исключительно моя придирка и минус не имеет право на объективность т.к. управление- дело вкуса и вообще некоторые на барабанах бонго игру проходят и им норм
    -Боевые стили( большая часть бесполезна и вообще не используется в прохождении (кроме микири или удара тени в некоторых местах)
    Итог: Игра очень качественная и полностью оправдывает свою цену в 2000 руб. Я могу порекомендовать игру поклонникам игр From Software и рекомендую новичкам жанра повременить с прохождением Sekiro и пройти трилогию Dark Souls, потому что есть вероятность что динамика DS вам покажется очень медленной после прохождения Sekiro

    Just doesn't have the same Souls feeling, that I was hoping for. The minimal ways of building your character, makes the game boring to me. One of the few FromSoft games, that I will not be getting a platinum.

    this game is more addictive than any From Software game . It's very difficult and takes some time to master but once you do it's a lot of fun. The only thing I don't like about Darkbornkiro games is it's very hard to play other video games without falling asleep. I seriously need a week or two before I can even try to play a game from another company.

    This game gave me a bunch of emotions, true emotions. My favourite souls like game (i played Dark Souls Remastered, Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne and Sekiro), but in my opinion easiest souls game.

    Overall, Sekiro is defined by its riveting, challenging, and ultimately highly rewarding gameplay. Stemming from simplicity but giving a wide variety of different combat options, few games come close to matching the exhilarating rush that Sekiro’s best moments provide. Exploring its atmospherically engrossing levels is a treat, from a visual, musical, and atmospheric standpoint. Even if exploration and character storylines are sometimes hampered by Dragonrot, repeatedly severing the immortality of bosses with brutal “Shinobi Executions” and discovering the ritual secrets of eternal life offers a captivating experience that stands out as one of FromSoftware’s best and most distinctive titles.

    Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is an enjoyable, yet deeply challenging game. It's not really a Dark Souls with samurais game, but whether or not you enjoyed the difficulty level of the battles in Dark Souls will be a good benchmark in gauging how much you'll like Sekiro. If you're persistent, up for a challenge, and don't become frustrated easily, then Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is an easy game to recommend.

    Though Sekiro feels impossibly hard at times, the level of euphoria you experience when delivering a death blow to a tricky boss or when you finally clear a castle grounds of all enemies is almost unparalleled.
