#sekiro second

[melonymint753]

hades 2 hot take that's gonna get me probably excommunicated (underworld end boss spoilers)

the people who complain about the pause disabling feature before even finding out that an in-game way to disable it exists, hit me on the same annoyed bone spot as those who complain about the new dash 3 days into the game. They see an obstacle and the knee jerk reaction is to protest Right Now instead of framing it as a thing that might have a workaround later, either as something mechanically provided, or something they can learn over time.

I'm getting behind the request that pause enabling shouldn't be locked behind winning, but there's enough people wanting it straight up gone that I want to scream.

Accessibility should mean better availability of solutions, not removing the problem.

#hades 2 #hades 2 spoilers #they should also just. be sentenced to playing jankier near-solo indie games until a suitable level of tilt-proofness has been acquired #like even a solution that appears immediately afterwards isn't fast enough they just want all barriers gone gone gone #while phrasing it as “accessibility” so it's morally harder for anyone to object to #if you want the accessibility argument then again that should be about the recipe cost not the existence #“it's not fair” you know what's not fair. Hades' own phase 2 #and that is super tame by game BS standards #*random middlegame bosses* having second phases are in games like Hollow Knight or Sekiro #dying one additional time likely relatively early in a game that's based *around* #death and rebirth really should not tilt people as much as it does #not to mention all the “the game is trying to make it more Important than me” #if you have important life stuff then you can just you know. Lose the run in one of the more forgiving games in the genre???? #even cult of the lamb doesn't let you pick the starting weapon and spell #this is not targeting any single person btw all these arguments I've seen multiple times

looking for full replays here which means you get to the end boss but don't necessarily 100% stuff. dlc completion not necessary, just the base game

you can vote if you haven't played them all but please don't vote if you only played one. I'm curious about preferences

feel free to tell me why in the tags!

#dark souls #demon's souls #bloodborne #elden ring #soulsborne #sekiro #mp #my polls #demon's souls ps3 for me #getting all the trophies took a few rounds of ng+ #that black katana skeleton and the pure bladestone.... eye is still twitching.... #when i just got a pure bladestone in the remake i had to turn the game off and go stare at a wall #i had emotions there aren't words to describe #ds1 is second for me #none of the others come close

Kong and Suko reminded me of them:

#also this is the second time that a giant ape reminded me of Kratos #shout out to sekiro's guardian ape #godzilla x kong: the new empire #kong #god of war

^ reminded me of u

thank you, anon. my favourite attack in the game. i can hear it in my sleep :)

#answered #anonymous #malenia blade of miquella #elden ring #such a cool attack but i get why some people would rather not have to deal with it #have her not track you so well and maybe give the start up like an extra second or two and i think it would be a little easier to deal with #but that’s just my opinion #which i’m sure many people will disagree with lol #‘no it should just be removed full stop and in fact remove the boss and put her in sekiro’ #still can’t believe people cry about that #the sekiro thing i mean #of course she’s easier in that game all you have to do is stand in front of her and press one button #jskfjsk sorry for the rant i’ll shut up now 🫠

what do you mean people can make posts on the internet without knowing anything about what they're talking about? 🤯

#this is not vaguing . my brain just cannot let go of that post #that post about adding pause options in games for accessibility (valid and correct) #and then mentioning soulslike games #i dont know about other souls like because i don't play them #but DS/dark souls/bloodborne at least #have the stable ground feature that functions as a live save system #its a strategy to quit out of the game to reset enemy positions (TO MAKE THE GAME EASIER BTW) #and it doenst make you lose any progress #and quitting out requires so few buttons you can do it in a split second when u need a moment #it only really resets bosses (which is a feature not a bug) #and sekiro HAS a pause function afaik--because its fully single player + the stable ground feature #the greatest problem of the fromsoft-souls francise is gamers treating is as gamer cred for its difficulty #when the real appeal is the unique narrative and the fact that you can fine tune your own difficulty experience with different routes #routes-mechanics-and weapons #THATS the reason challenge runs are so big in those games--but what challenge runs don't tell you is that #you can choose to make your game harder #but you have the same control to make it easier #exactly as you want it. not just by changing HP scaling and damage as is the standard- but by changing the game experience itself #and theymay not be games for everyone. but no game is ever for everyone #but in terms of actual accessibility i believe fromsosft games ARE accessible because of their simple controls that can be easily bound int #easily bound into any controller might suit the player's needs best #while offering an experience that is exactly as challenging as the player chooses

oh I'm sure nothing bad is going to happen to me at this pagoda where a man dressed in literal patches sent me to look for treasure hey hold up what the fuck

#sekiro shadows die twice #dark souls #had me in the second half not gonna lie

[kinnoth]

Ok not to be a freak but .... why does sekiro not automatically volunteer to be the "cradle" in the "return" ending. Like.....the only stated qualifications are 1) must be immortal (which sekiro is already) and 2) must eat the snake livers (which sekiro already has on his person).

Like, just given everything we know about sekiro and his commitment to being like..... the only person who bears all the sacrifices for kuro bc that's the only way he knows how to inhabit his devotion ....he really ought to have been like "I'll do it" when the divine child brings up this possibility, to which the divine child could have been "no, you can't because xyz nonsense reasons"

Just seems so weird that he wouldn't offer???

#sekiro #I'm not a freak i just think its so OOC that sekiro would voluntarily involve another person in this whole immortality drama #when it has been his very well established pattern to #a) keep every fucking secret to himself and b) distrust fucking EVERYONE when it comes to his master's wellbeing #like this bitch was .02 seconds away from killing EMMA bc she happened to standing between him and kuro that one time #emma who has been nothing but courteous and professional!!!! who is clearly just here to do a job!! #like i just can't understand how sekiro would believe that anyone else could keep kuro safer than he could?? #(I just think if he was given the option to carry kuro literally inside his body he would jump at it and finally find peace)

[sevens-evan]

am i the only one who finds the owl (father) fight way easier than the first one. the faster moveset just makes more sense to me i think and the owl attacks in the second phase are really easy punishes

#evan plays sekiro #hopped back into my ng+ playthrough an di'm almost done w it #second time around the amount of recycled content in this game gets more annoying #no more juzou fights please.

[miraclemaya]

man learning the dodges to water fowl dance will forever be one of my favourite souls moments.

#malenia will forever be one of my favourite fights #like up there with artorias #i wish i has more trouble with sword saint isshin cause i beat that second try so i never really got to appreciate his fight #sekiro was so good though it felt so good to master

[palant1r]

the second genichiro fight is so funny. imagine being wolf, facing down the dude who kidnapped your boy and cut your arm off. you've got the upper hand. you've thrust your cold hard steel straight through him twice. and the mf just starts stripping

#for a split second i wonder if wolf was like #how do i tell him that sucking dick wont get him out of this situation #andy plays sekiro

[fluffypichu876]

BASTARD

#extremely comedic situation right here #second lesson learned i guess #bonfires don't mean immediate safety (i should have learned that lesson from sekiro already xD) #dark souls

[maaruin]

I suppose I will try defeating Genichiro Ashina for 8 more hours of playtime throughout this week, if that doesn't work I'll go do Hirata Estate and some more levelling up before returning.

#sekiro: shadows die twice #sekiro spoilers #i've heard he has a second phase so if i manage to get him to second phase in those 8 hours but not defeat him we'll see what I will do

[soulsilencer]

Games where you can change voice over without changing the whole language/region have spoiled me because I want to do that for League so bad.

#forever thinking about italian dub pyke and japanese dub zed. i think in the second one the va was on sekiro. #🥀 txt

[gorgynei]

i almost first tried guardian ape but i got too psyched out and my fingers were shaking too much and i fucked up right at the end. NO!!!!

#i like the second phase more than the first phase. dont throw poop at me boy #ramblings #ace plays sekiro

[pol1arity]

.
