    To be honest, taking away character customization will reduce replayability for die-hards but it will make this game 100x more approachable for everyone else. Not having to worry about whether you are irrevocably messing up your character build will allow the player to focus on getting good at the game and not spending time making mistakes or scouring build tutorials.

      Im a die hard, and have 200 hours in sekiro already, "loot" and character customization is not needed in every game. For the most part games that try to implement "loot" and character customization end up being very empty and bland, at which point "loot" is purely superficial. The game should be good first. Then if you want a loot system go ahead, dont make getting re skins of the same shit over and over, the focus of the game, because they usually turn out bad. Lookin at you assassins creed.

      I agree, but I think Soulsborne didn't really suffer from this. Sure, the stat system looks like complete Hebrew the first time you play a Soulsborne game (which contributed to the feeling of complete mystery and helplessness that I've never felt since the amazing design of DKS1), but after that they're basically identical through all the games.
      It's not easily approachable, but I really liked it. At the same time, RPG elements are getting shoehorned into every single game nowadays, more like an afterthought, and people don't remember games like, I don't know, Crash Bandicoot or some of those early shooters where you literally start with every resource that will be available to you.

    Game kind of reminds me of a few different games. What a modern Tenchu could be similar too. Lil bit of MGS3 stealth/positioning. The high octane, intensity of metal gear rising and except more reactive and skill based from less OTT animations plus latter being hack and a slash.
    I think me dying more than I expected despite playing souls games for near 15 years. 4:01 in vid really hit home when that clicked when I’d played. For example, what the hell am I doing playing this way. This isn’t a standard Soulsbourne. With the fresh mechanics I got the sense they wanted you to use all that freedom you had available.

  • @PaulHofreiter
    @PaulHofreiter Před 5 lety +46

    I got it on day one and it is fantastic. One interesting thing to me is how divisive this game is. There are a huuuge amount of “I am a pro souls player with 600 hours put in and this game is garbage, it’s not cause I’m dying a lot - the game is just bad” posts. I think it boils down to saltiness that the game isn’t Dark Souls 4 and they have too rigid expectations that the game would be something it isn’t. That is what makes this such a great game though - it is different. It is incredibly unforgiving and it feels very different than a Souls game. Anyway, great video here as always and thanks.

    I failed many times at hanging onto the ledges too, but then I realized that whenever I held the x button (square) Sekiro would stick his hand out in a sort of animation style, as if he was getting ready to hang onto the ledge. And so instead of pressing the x button quickly by the ledge (And failing miserably) I now hold the x button as i'm about to touch the ledge and I don't seem to be failing anymore. Give it a try and see if that works for you. I've only grabbed on to a couple of ledges since I found that out so I don't know if I just got lucky or if this is how this particular mechanic works

    I have been playing Assassins Creed Odyssey a lot lately, wich isn't that difficult to play. I have problems getting into Sekiro. It so much harder. I''m not really a hardcore gamer. I guess the save system in Sekiro is more challenging, but for me it's very frustrating to start over every time I fail. I will stick with it though, and see if I can make progress .

      If you can train yourself to excel at this game I can all but guarantee you'll get more out of the experience than you would from a thousand bland copypasted ubisoft titles. I was stuck on a certain midgame boss for like a week. I was angry. I thought about giving up, but I kept trying and trying and then FINALLY I nailed it. I'm not exaggerating when I say that the feeling was better than sex. If you're capable of learning from your mistakes and give it your all, this game is beyonddd rewarding. Stick with it!!
