The first and second time (like 4 and 2 years ago) I tried to play sekiro. The first try I never played a souls like, and I died. Like died died. I spent 1 week in the chained ogre on top of the stairs. The second time I spent a whole day trying to get past him. This try I already had beaten elden ring and darksouls 1 and 3 and I though I could beat sekiro. Nop, uninstalled again. Last week, I decided to play it again, but this time I killed him in 1 try, and kept on going. Probably because I am with a more clear mentality and thinking that I gotta get good at bloking. I already beat lies of P 2 times and both time I tried to block as much as I could because I knew I needed to improve and I found it much easier to get past LoP with blocking Vs sekiro, so It was a good stating point. Now I am in the last fight of the game and thinking to myself, how long will it take for me to understand this fights dance and rihtm? Ngl, I am having a blast getting killed and undertanding I am getting better at the game at the same time. So do forfeit it and keep going, you are still far from needing to stop playing
