    I love how the sword saint has attacks that are reminiscent of other bosses in the game for example: Corrupted monk’s retreating slash, snake eye’s gunfire, seven spear’s spear thrust and swipe, Genichiro’s lightning and divine dragon’s air blade slash, owl’s ground slam. This boss truly checks your skills.

    What I love the most about this fight is how, in the end, Isshin had everything he wanted.
    He wanted to fight Sekiro to have an honorable duel with him, but he also didn't like Genichiro's idea of using Kuro's blood to restore Ashina's glory.
    So in the end, he had the duel of his lifetime with Sekiro and Genichiro's plan failed, as he hoped.

      True, Isshin's one regret was that he did not live to be bested by a greater foe. Whereas in the Shura ending, Isshin dies without hope, unable to defeat Wolf, in the other endings he gets to die with honor and take pride in being bested in combat by Wolf. It's a good ending for him, even though his clan came to ruin.

      Genichiro is an awesome evenly matched fight, high speed fight.
      Lady Butterfly is an awesome deflect/counter/pressure pressure fight.
      Phase 1 of Ishin is an awesome bossgfight - but phase 2 & 3 are. just. not.
      And by the time I get there, that 2&3 are readable to where I feel competent deflecting everything, Genichiro has more new neck-holes than he has intact skin left and all fun has exited the game. Which is exactly what happened in the video - Genichiro and phase 1 were over in like less than 2 minutes each by playing it the 'Sekiro' way, but fuck the phases after that.
      If Ishin wants to pull out some long range attacks, AoE and projectile spam like a Dark Souls boss, he better be prepared to go down like one.

But phase 2 and 3 were very exciting as you can see him getting tools he didn't have previously which gives you a sense that he is not exactly human anymore and gives you a sense of duty to defeat him, to save Japan. And the fact that everything you have done has lead to this moment makes you wanna fight the boss the "Sekiro" way as then it would be a strong way of showing that you have bested the game and have overcome it. Then again, everyone has their own opinion and I'm not going to criticize your preferences, your experience with Sekiro is probably very different from mine.

    In case viewers didn’t notice, the player or ‘Boss Fight Database’ had to restart the battle sometime at 6:49-6:50 because Isshin’s health went back up a little bit after the player resurrected (as Isshin doesn’t recover health during combat), and the following footage was that of a second attempt.

      Bloodbourne doesn't have heavy armor though. Sekiro is certainly faster paced, but the idea that Japanese armor or swords are lighter is weird. Steel is very dense, and katanas and longswords are actually similar weight. Sekiro is simply wearing less armor.

Besides eavesdropping on Isshin when he alludes to a second mortal blade, what mention is there of it? My guess is that Lady Tomoe gave it to Genichiro after she attempted mortal severance with Lord Takeru (and failed) but that's just speculation.

    Took me 5 and a half minutes to beat this monster when I finally beat him. Posture break route is a lot faster and holy hell, it’s so immersive. It’s exactly what I was wanting the final fight to be. A one on one that truly tests your skills in every single area of the game. You basically feel every single clash. I’ve never experienced a boss on this level and I don’t think I ever will again. This truly felt like the final test in a long ass journey, and when you ace it it’s the best feeling that a game can give you. Killing Owl made me tear up and get emotional, this fight pushed me to my limits. It took me many tries. I had to grind this for about 10 hours, between the fight and farming candy/spirit emblems. This is, without a doubt in my mind, the best final boss I’ve ever seen and/or played in a video game. It may sound silly to people that haven’t played the game yet, but this fight literally humbled me. The biggest hurdle I’ve ever had to jump over in a video game left me humble and speechless.

    F*cking Genichiro again??? like if you beat this guy at the tutorial stage of the game and after that he still comes back?? sigh...
    The Japanese voice actor of him is Kenjiro Tsuda who also voices Seto Kaiba in Yu-Gi-Oh! guess this makes a nice explanation, that this guy just can't f*cking loose.

    The fact that one of the most brutal bosses in all of Demon Souls, Dark Souls, Bloodborne and Sekiro is just a man with sword, spear and gun, the only augmentation being his resurrection and a lightning storm happening around them...

    He's really not as bad as everyone made him out to be. Cheesing just makes this more tedious. Just learn his attacks and mikri counter those thrusts as often as possible. Amazing boss fight! You feel a million times better beating him head on as well.

    • @venonaut9782
      @venonaut9782 Před 5 lety +3

      Without a doubt using mikiri counter and parrying would have helped so much in this fight. Just watching him run around the boss in phases 2 and 3 hurt so much. Granted, I got hurt really bad in those phases when I did it, but I ended phase 2 in under 2 minutes by countering, and the 3rd in under a minute using lightning reversals.

  • @W1LDZER0
    @W1LDZER0 Před 2 lety +1

    I remember looking up like three guide on how to beat this boss and none helped because the boss got more aggressive everytime (I think that was Isshin telling me "Defeat me with YOUR strength") I then decided "Let's do this'" and beat him.
