Cult Icon Posted June 30, 2019 Author Share Posted June 30, 2019 For me at least I still like Dark Souls 3 the best but this one is great in its own way. The next Miyazaki game is a collab with JJR (Elden Ring). Sekiro may or may not get a sequel, time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrico_sw Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 I might actually start playing it during the quarantine (but I'm not sure yet). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enrico_sw Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 So, I finally bought the game at a discount price and that's really worth it. I'm really enjoying the experience. Sure, there are bad things: the AI is dumb af (most of the low level ennemies are deaf, blind and kinda stupid), the camera doesn't know how to handle walls and the level design could've been improved... ... but, all in all, this game is great. I love playing it. The story, the characters, the graphics, the difficulty are all awesome. Most of the basic ennemies are very easy, but some of the bosses are a real challenge (not all of them: some are surprisingly easy) and that's what makes them enjoyable.

Enrico_sw Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I liked this mini boss. He was quite easy to beat (his fight pattern is very predictable and regular like a metronome), but I liked his design and his backstory (though the game doesn't tell you much and this guy is extrapolating a little bit - for example, I don't see any hint that the knight is Portuguese). I like the concept of a knight going to the end of the world to save his son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult Icon Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 From Software has a quite talented group of writers that are very knowledgeable about fantasy. The way Miyazaki uses lore is to not throw it in the player's face with cutscenes. He tends to hide the lore in conversations, environmental clues, item descriptions etc. That Vaati youtuber made a youtube career just piecing together the clues- with the help of souls fans- into coherent stories. Sekiro was somewhat more narrative driven than the other souls type games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrico_sw Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 @Cult Icon There is a Netflix TV series on the Sengoku period in which Sekiro takes place. It's pretty good. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10551256/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They use a wee bit too much superlatives for my tastes though (you can't just say " it's the most decisive battle in Japan's history" every 10 minutes........) I like the acting a lot.

I have heard that GOT is unrealistic in the way that clothing/armor/weapons are actually more like the Sengoku era- which predates the Mongol invasions. The Hagakure was written partially as a response to existential angst. The Sengoku era was seen as the time of "Real men", "Real honor", and "real samurai" while the later, more peaceful eras had the stigma that the samurai class had become more decadent, corrupt/business oriented, effete, and fake. There are classic Japanese movies that explore this theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cult Icon Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 @Enrico_sw have you seen the anime film "Ninja Scroll"? I just realized that the film most likely influenced Sekiro, there are all sorts of things that are similar in the two works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
