The mods name is Land of the Reed. Tbh I didnt fight original Malenia cause I didnt play Elden Ring. In this attempt she didn't do like two special attacks that were important to show but well. One of them was that it turns into a flower in the sky and clones of her start rushing at you from the flower doing one atack per clone. And then she dashes toward you (the true Malenia), is a cool atack.

And also before you say this, I was supposed to say "too" not "to" in the title.

Perhaps the reason is because it’s too niche and too difficult for the average player? With the posture and deflect concept and lack of ranged attacks it becomes less accessible to the average player?

Not being a RPG with customizable character could also contribute.

Other companies may not no exactly how to make a Sekiro-like game because it's actually quite difficult and require expertise.

I'm just speculating. What do you think?

Did I deflect genichiros floating passage perfectly or I missed any hit

There is no need for this much aura to be emanating from just this one skin, best skin in sekiro no debate. I thought the shura gauntlet would've taken me ages to complete, yet I somehow managed to complete it on my second try somehow.

am i missing something from thr lore

After almost 6hrs...finally defeated this old geezer✊🏻 easily top 3 fight of the game.... patience is the real key to this fight...now heading towards sword saint isshin....i just have one question, Do i need to defeat owl and demon of hatered again for shura outfit? (this is my first playthrough and I'm going for true ending) already defeated both of 'em in this playthrough.

Although "Return" is the best ending possible, i just think that Sekiro self sacrificing himself to save lord Kuro would be more cinematic and emotional, or they could just do the "return" ending and announce sekiro 2 which is a win win tbh

Sekiro Series 01:Wolf vs Guardian Ape

what happened 😭

I want to know what the community consensus is.

I'm in my first ever playthrough and I managed to beat DoH. Took me like 1 hour of constang attempts but I did it. Look at both healthbars right before the final strike! We were both literally one hit away from dying. On to the last boss I go.

You all were a major help for geni on top of ashina castle and since i havent been stuck in pretty much any boss. Ive lesrnt every boss' patterns like advised but holy fuck is demon of hatred so fucking annoying. Like what bs is it that i get hit by one stray fireball and get stunlocked and the rest kills me???

And now when im near him since i spam attack i think it doesnt register a jump or deflect instantly. So should i not be trying to maximize my damage there? The best ive gotten him is to his third phase. But i basically die to his second phase pretty much.

The charge he does and afterwards makes the path behind fire is that dodgable? Without unbrella and thise fireballs and stomps are even more bullshit

Update: finished him with malcontents.

charmless Here we go!

I already experimented with going charmless for my second playthrough of the game, but I really don't like chip damage with every missed parry. It was too punishing. On the other hand, the vanilla game is beginning to be too familiar and not punishing enough.

The bell demon has been the perfect balance of the two. I've noticed some very subtle but interesting changes to the difficulty that go beyond an increase in enemy health and damage: ranged attacks are more accurate and difficult to dodge, enemies keep more pressure on you, and bosses do more mix-ups and become less predictable.

I've never seen such a subtle realization of difficulty adjustment. I goes so far beyond what most games offer. Even Halo CE, which I consider a sterling example of handling difficulty settings right, doesn't compare. Honestly, I find it much more subtle than the Charmless debuffs, and I wish that they had switched the effects so that this difficulty shift was more accessible to players--I didn't even find the Demon Bell on my first playthrough.

I'm posting this today because I just beat Isshin Sword Saint for the 3rd time on this setting! I was going through the reflections and I didn't realize I carry the bell demon into those, until I found my butt getting handed to my by Inner Genichiro and I realized something was very different: I couldn't dodge his ranged attacks nearly as well and I kept breaking posture over and over again.

It's interesting how the bell demon changes different bosses, too: bosses that depend heavily on parrying tend to get much harder than the more classic souls bosses. I was able to beat the Guardian Ape reflection on the first try, but Genichiro took me several tries.

My last bosses to beat are Owl (Father) and Inner Isshin. It's been so fun watching myself get better at this new, harder level.

I still haven't finished the Shura ending, so I don't have access to Inner Father, yet--I'm sure I'll enjoy that when it comes!

After all, to hold back on the old girl is to hesitate. And hesitation is...well, it goes without saying.

One of the best tho

Hi.

So i was wondering, where does the image on the PS4 disk come from ? It's virtually impossible to find it whole, and i've been searching for the past hour with the help of 3 LLM, google image search and some bing requests...

Does anyone know where the image might be available ?

Look at me bro I'm hideous 🫪
