Funny that you stick to that defense but thought I had over-levelled when you saw the video and went into denial when I told you I was >10 levels lower than your cheesing mentor Powerpyx: "Guide to beating one of the easiest boss in the game - Over level the fuck out of your character" :tv:

Actually, his playthrough was aimed at 100% completion, meaning he did all the optional areas and bosses. This, in turn, means that he had more upgrade opportunities by default. He didn't grind his way to level 73. Heck, I was around the same level by the time I took on Amy.

To record a "no damage run" and deliberately die if I take a hit? It's not like I don't know the games mechanics. For someone who has finished the game, I know this is pure pure pure boredom. No thanks

It's totally fine if you don't want to do a no damage run, but at least do the boss fight on your own before passing a verdict based on someone else's playthrough lol. That's all I'm saying. Here's hoping you get another PS+ trial soon

Necrokiller said:
Besides, isn't the entire point of you making these "no damage" videos to prove exactly how easy the game is? Works for Bloodborne too :hah:

Definitely works for the individual who recorded that Blooborne video

Necrokiller said:
Lets make it even more interesting by you recording a video destroying him in less than 2 mins using your guaranteed safety approach which you forgot as soon as you saw him :hah:

I'm not finding the game interesting enough to do an NG+ playthrough lol. In fact, I'm going to put this on hold after the next boss fight, since Bloody Palace mode was added to DMC5 today.

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a butterfly to crush

You've been passing verdicts on the game based on Mr. ICheeseGamesToCompletion's opinions and well before you even reached the first mini-boss in Sekiro yourself lol

I'm passing verdict based on my own playthrough of Bloodborne. The whole discussion was how easy the game is or can be easily exploited/cheesed since it allows it. Your entire argument hinges on a couple of optional bosses you faced difficulty in. "But if you face that optional enemy in that optional area with no parry spamming and no shield to keep you safe and no summoning THEN the game is tough". How is that level of specificity important when talking about the game's overall difficulty? It isn't to me. Just that my agenda when playing the game wasn't to exploit and cheese through it. It was easy enough on its own. There is nothing in those videos that I can't do myself and having finished the game I can say this with certainty.

Please don't tag me. I'll watch your videos myself if I have trouble sleeping :hah:

CerebralTiger · Apr 1, 2019

Awww fine, I won't tag you. I'll tag @Chandoo and @venom

Lady Butterfly crushed:

Spoiler: show

Notice the repeated block animation. This is the result of spamming the block button. You'll find me doing this throughout the fight.

Spoiler: show

Was successfully able to get a perfect deflection many times and ultimately break her posture both times by constant spamming, all while being comfortably safe. Even her cheap flurry of unblockable projectiles is easily evaded, as seen in the video.

Spoiler: show

Chandoo · Apr 1, 2019

this is such a weird thread .. y'all are criticizing each other for the ways you're approaching the game.

elitism isn't the right word, i don't know what is :laugh1:

Necrokiller · Apr 1, 2019

Holy shit for once I agree with Chandoo lol

Such a fantastic game (imo ofcourse

) and @CerebralTiger is spending all his energy cheesing through it (while still pussying out of perilous attacks lol).

Also, I know you personally never cared about Sekiro but in the interest of people who do, spoiler tag all your videos and gifs please.

This BI*** was the one that really turned me off of Sekiro. It was too hard for me. You guys really are making it look like the game is easy, which it is not, at least not for me.

[MENTION=8386]JANARIOO[/MENTION] did you ever figured out how to make the controllers work? If yes, how? Having the same problem here

Edit: fixed it with the help of "x360ce" software

MadDemon · Apr 2, 2019

This game is not for everyone, Huge fan of Bloodborne but this game is too much punishing. The Bosses deflect is so hard to counter

[MENTION=173]venom[/MENTION] [MENTION=47507]MadDemon[/MENTION] You guys didn't try spamming the block button?

@venom @MadDemon You guys didn't try spamming the block button?

No actually. All the time I was trying to counter it at the last moment for the perfect deflection and most of the times i would end up blocking or getting hit by the enemy. I could be wrong here but I just realized yesterday that my TV mode was set to HDR+ instead of GAME MODE. HDR +, if i am not mistaken increases the input latency and i think that may be the reason why my deflections were not working as I intended.

Parry or defelct is not the issue, Its that boss attacks are so fast they damage even after a perfect deflect.

I was playing on Xbox one X.

Witcher92 · Apr 2, 2019

I thought I was the only one having hard time playing man, enemies of these games are harsh, so badass specially those Major General idiots.

I plat bloodborne but this game I find more punishing and requires alot of practice, specially deflecting enemy moves and thrust attacks, not sure what I am gonna face further in the game .

Played till that Blazing bull so far, loving it any.

[h=1]Watch Sekiro beaten in under an hour by an absolute madman[/h]

Dan was gunning for any Any% record, so he only had to clear the minimum requisite bosses and the final boss, but it's still a staggeringly impressive run. Hell, if you take Dan's completion time of 50:52 and stick a comma in there, you get 5,052, also known as the average number of times most players will die while playing Sekiro. Death animations take a couple of seconds apiece, so with some quick napkin math, we can deduce that most players will spend more time dying than Dan spent beating the game. Speedrunners, man.

Necrokiller said:

One of her two perilous attacks is a grab, which can't be mikiri countered or deflected. "Pussying out" is the only way

You probably missed it, but I did mikiri counter this mini-boss' perilous attacks.

[MENTION=11352]Necrokiller[/MENTION] your thoughts on this game??

iampasha · Apr 3, 2019

How to deal with multiple enemies plus mini bosses at once? Also few things I'm not sure off:

If we just die instead of resurrection Everytime, can we still spread dragonrot disease?

Is there a stamina bar or a limit to how much you can Dodge at a time?

What is the difference between health potion and the beads?

This is my actual first time into this genre so pardon me for the noob questions.

Try to bait a few of them away without agro-ing the boss. Use stealth to take out as many enemies as you can. They generally go back into patrol mode if you aren't spotted for a little while. Use the grappling hook to gain higher ground and perform a stealth takedown.

iampasha said:

Yes, repeatedly dying and resurrecting at a sculptor's idol or resurrecting on the battlefield lead to the same consequence.

iampasha said:

No stamina bar or limit to how much you can dodge.

iampasha said:

Healing gourds can be replenished when you rest at a sculptor's idol. Beads are consumables that are gone once you've used them.
