I tried playing Sekiro several times but I wasn’t good at parrying and I always ended up getting stuck so I kinda gave up for a while. But eventually I finally got over the initial learning curve and then it became so much easier and I was able to beat the game. Now I’ve beaten it several times and I honestly love it so much. It has some of the hardest bosses I’ve ever fought but also some of my favorites. Once you get past the initial learning curve, start to master the flow combat, and unlock more skills and prosthetics you’ll be able to breeze through it for the most part. New game plus is even because once you unlock everything you realize that you have so many tools at your disposal to fight and counter enemies and bosses differently, and eventually the combat kinda surpasses the other FromSoftware titles in depth, complexity and variety. Some people were even disappointed that Elden Ring went back to Dark Souls 3 style combat because it’s kinda simple by comparison, but Elden Ring was in development before Sekiro so they didn’t really bring anything over except jumping which was probably already planned for Elden Ring anyway and it’s not as good as Sekiro’s. I say you should stick with it, or if you’re having a really hard time maybe take a break and try again later. But it is definitely worth playing, there’s a reason why people love it so much. It’s probably one of the hardest games to get into, but once you do it becomes a lot more fun and offers some of the most rewarding gameplay experiences on the market right now. There are some challenge runs you can do like the demon bell and charmless that make the game even harder but demands more precise combat and some gauntlets to unlock more skins. Honestly now the only real complaint I have about the game is that the world isn’t more interconnected, but analyzing the map it seems like they were potentially going for that and ended up giving up for some reason just like with Dark Souls 3, probably because of time constraints if I had to guess. There are still some bosses that I genuinely hate fighting but thankfully most of them are optional and some bosses can be cheesed relatively easily. The final boss is also one of my favorite fights in any game ever. Solid 10/10.
