r/Sekiro

I stopped playing sekiro here is why. so lemme start from the start. Last month I had bought sekiro from steam after months of savings. I was pretty excited to play this game and I did a thorough study on if it is compatible on my laptop. really enjoyed the game, it was a tough game but every step seemed like a growth but it had to come to an end. My laptop is acer Ryzen 5 7250U which is an average laptop for games like sekiro. Though through research I found it to be compatible through considerable graphics adjustments & sacrifice, which I had done.

Though the FPS didn't go above 30, not even a single time. I was still fine with that, I pretty much adjusted to it immediately. But the problem started occuring after I had almost finished 50% of the game. The game started crashing down and the whole amd software went buggy so after some days of thinking I decided to uninstall it.

The problem didn't stay there, I have been getting YouTube videos, even Reddit is full of sekiro posts, which are really hard to watch after all what happens.

So I request anyone who had read till this point to suggest me a game similar to sekiro.. so I can at least have something to play or let's say a coping mechanism lmao

Btw I have already played games like,

Hollow knight

Nine sols

Grime(currently playing)

Ori(both)

(Picture to grab the attention.)

I started playing sekiro 2 weeks ago

And I am addicted to it

After multiple attempts trying every possible trick

I wasn't able to defeat Genichiro

But after finally using a combination of oil and flame vent

It's too overpowered . I may have cheated but win is a win and don't judge my skills i am only 20 hours in the game . And not to forget I did not use any of my Resurrections.

Have read multiple reddit posts of people suffering with genichiro use oil and fuck him up 😁.

I want to love this prosthetic. The look , the fell, the concept. I absolutely adore status effects. Why do I feel like it's a dud? It gets blocked 99% of the time and poisons just about no one. As far as souls like goes, sekiro is more grounded, I thought more enemies and bosses would be weak to status effects. What am I missing? Put me on the correct path, teach the way!

With some actual sake

This is my second or third time seeing this white mist thingy on my Shinobi. This is right after defeating shichimen warrior. Any idea?

I had plenty of healing and revive and she just bonked me to the abyss 😭

I just beat the mortal journey and there's literally no "completed" text or anything. I knew there wasn't a reward like outfits or new moves but not even a checkmark?

Imagine that Miyazaki calls you and needs your help in the production of Sekiro 2. He asks primarily about the following things:

-The game's plot

-The place where the game takes place

-an idea for several bosses

-new prosthetic tools

Took me the most tries so far out of any other boss at 18, no items outside my estus and 2 pellets, and no use of prosthetics either.

It's mainly his 1st phase that's the issue, and where 90% of my deaths come from. That fucking nudge-sweep combo fucked my shit up man, crazy how fast that came out. His random combo cancelling out of nowhere was also really weird and threw me off at times. Fun fight still, but man that quick attack was so frustrating, and I definitely prefer Sword Saint over him

Guys no shit, the game clicked for me. I beat guardian ape first try. Edit: I have just been told that the "second phase" is a seperate boss. That explained why I got the "shinoby execution" after each one. Anyways I got both bosses in one try first try.

Also almost died by supposedly the weakest grunt right after that lol
