Hi, guys! I finally got myself to play Sekiro. I had been avoiding playing since I know i gotta be in a certain mind state to play Soulslikes.
I just spent almost my whole sunday, plus a couple hours of failed attempts yesterday, banging my head agains the wall on the last boss. But I finally did it. You all know the pure thrill of finally beating a boss on this games, after hours upon hours of getting yours handed to you.
This was definitely, for me, the hardest Soulslike of all(by a fair margin) and the last boss in particular is also, in my modest opinion, the most difficult(and awesome) boss in the franchise.
It took me 81 hours to get through the whole game. The most frustrating part was the beggining, where I kept trying to play like it was another Dark Souls game. I think I really started getting my rhythm at about 30, 40 percent of the game.
Anyways, gorgeous game. A freaking masterpiece. And, in an year of terribly optimized games, it was a delight to experience a game that, although 4 years old at this point, still looks and runs amazing.
