I’ve been playing this game off and on, starting over since it came out. I was a hardcore Bloodborne player, but also played a lot of elden ring and ds3. Sekiro never clicked, I thought it was slick and the action felt incredible but I just couldn’t get past the beginning. Finally I’ve broken through and am having a blast,...
Sekiro is possibly my favorite game of all time, and for sure my favorite From Software game. I can’t even describe how much I love this game.
The feeling you get when you finally beat a boss that initially seemed literally impossible (looking at you Sword Saint Isshin) is incomparable. Just the biggest dopamine rush ever.
And it’s like riding a bike. Once you get it, that muscle memory stays. I went a year or so without playing it, and within 5 or 10 minutes I was right back where I was.
Truly a gaming masterpiece. Enjoy it. Also, if you find yourself getting stuck on a boss and you find yourself getting into a loop of doing the wrong thing over and over, try giving it a rest for a bit and come back with fresh eyes.
I was struggling on the final boss for hours until I rage quit and went to bed. Tried again next morning and literally beat him on my second try.
but for a boss, it’s faster to just learn the fight than spend time farming tokens to try to grind it out with prosthetics.
Eh not always… Not going to spoil anything but there are bosses that were designed for specific tools to be helpful. As in there are unique animations and effects when you use them on them.
For sure. The game can be beat without prosthetics at all if that’s your bag. I personally found it fun to mix it up with some of the mini boss fights and some of the harder “regular fights”. I don’t think it takes anything away from the satisfaction, because they really aren’t that effective even when you max them out.
Oh is it? My immediate thought was that it was Elon being childish and basically saying like, “if I can’t say x slur, then I’m going to pretend it’s the same as this clinical, scientific term to make a point.”
Like that he thinks he’s truly made an amazing satirical statement here or something…
Yeah that’s not what they’re doing with FFVII. These are three, very large, separate games. I’m nearly 100 hours into Rebirth and I’m probably about halfway through. Remake took me 80+, and the Intergrade was maybe 20 or so.
And not a moment of it has felt wasted or boring to me. Even the card game in Rebirth is incredible. I think they’re maybe even making an irl card game out of it.
Maybe it’s nostalgia as the original was a massive part of my childhood. But I love what they’re doing and where they’re going with the new series.
Yeah, why would we want Pulitzer Prize winner energy in politics?
I guess if you set it to music and make it rhyme, then whatever you have to say is worthless?
Edit: don’t get mad and downvote just because you don’t actually know who Kendrick Lamar is.
Edit: can I get some more angry replies for mistakenly reading a comment as sarcasm?
Most people, after our previous president, seem to want to move away from this type of celebrity bullshit in our politics, so I read their comment as sarcasm.
Before you see red and send that angry response, maybe go back and read their comment as sarcasm and tell me it doesn’t make sense.
The way your comment was strangely worded had me read it as sarcasm. As in “can we please have a little more time before our politics turns into vapid rap battles”.
Obviously I misread it, and many people have pointed that out. Angrily. But I dunno, go back and read your comment while thinking sarcasm.
Most people don’t want that kind of kind of celebrity “discourse” in politics, especially after our previous president.
So I read it as sarcasm. No need to take it personal.
I guess I’ll edit my original comment because apparently I’ve made some folks real mad.
The person said “got to run out of stuff to burn someday” which kind of means that everything is destroyed, not just humanity. Without plant life, someone correct me if I’m wrong, but we’d no longer have an atmosphere.
Maybe we’d still have tardigrades or some shit, but I think “devoid of all life” would be pretty accurate in this scenario.
Generally speaking though, you’re correct that the planet will survive just fine (rather, it would probably thrive) without humans.
edit: forgot to answer your question: no, I don’t remember getting mad or upset. The only angry person in this thread is you, and I think most people are confused by your unprovoked aggression.
I hope everything is ok, bud. It seems like you’re having a real tough time. I truly mean that. Your worldview seems to be causing you great distress and I can’t imagine how exhausting that must be.
I don’t get “upset” by ignorant strangers on the internet. If anything, I just feel sorry for you.
Growing up in an extremely conservative, Evangelical, Fox News household, so I know the exact intentions of ending that sentence with “liberal.” Like it’s a curse word, and like anyone outside your sad little bubble is going to care (plus, as we’ve established, you don’t even know what the word means).
Spoiler: they don’t.
In fact, given your tenuous grasp of these terms, and what you think “liberal” means… Your attempted insult becomes more of a compliment. So thanks!
It’s like those people who try to use some variant of “hurr durr you live in your mom’s basement” on grown-ass adults who have lived alone for at least a decade… It just doesn’t work lol.
It’s also a pretty big self-report. You don’t need a poly-sci degree to learn this stuff.
Yeah, pointing out something can be insulting does not mean I’m insulted, or angry or upset or… Like I know you’re trying real hard to get that reaction from me, but like I said before I honestly just feel bad for you.
It’s not only sad, but very very weird. Why don’t you step back for a moment and see how this comment exchange began… What kind of depressing life leads a person to behave the way that you did (and still do).
You are clearly very angry, and it’s sad to see that anger so misdirected… Like you don’t even have a grasp on the absolute basics of political classifications, yet you’re so damned mad at some boogeymen you invented to fit into these fabricated classifications.
I hope you get some help, not only with the misguided anger, but also with your inability to define or understand basic political terms. Especially if you’re going to be so outspokenly vitriolic towards strangers about them.
It’s a really bad look.
I expect nothing more than the same shit, so don’t expect me to reply (or honestly, even read) your response to this.
I hope you can get some help, and maybe part of that will be realizing when you’re wrong and learning not to double down on stupid.
