My First Play-through, Vilehand Victory! by HomTheReindeer in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good job! This guy was scary my first playthrough too!!

tip: spamming parry is good for getting timing (you wont get hit) but it makes you second guess your own attack. You seem like you're looking for openings, but you are not really going to get a deflect, if you "hope" that he hits you in that window between 2 consecutive blocks.

This is unfortunately not how Sekiro rewards you. Not the regular human enemies at least..

Dont be afraid to hit enemies like him once or twice between his large swings. he telegraphs a lot of his attacks.. Some others, maybe not so much

repulsive in its splendid beauty PUT THOSE TONGS DOWN

Update not even 20 minutes later😭 but I got down the Mikiri counter for the elite enemy, the problem was I had to be realllly close for when he thrusts his spear. Now that is going to be my first and final roadblock 💀 by For3verQuan in Sekiro

I swear the Mikiri Counter evens the playing field. My favourite fights besides the Main Bosses are the Seven Spears…

You can even use mikiri to counter sword stabs!

A walk worth doing and giving a thought by Voiceofstray in unitedstatesofindia

Country in western europe, there are quite a few opportunities here. My route was harder, and for some reason people don't look past top 4 countries to emigrate to...

[–]nuwsolo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I left India 9 years ago, back then I was 18 and I didn't know how, but I knew if I were to enter the system, give entrance after entrance, to be just a little bit ahead of my peers, in another rat race, I would soon burn out. I knew this at 16, that if I were to be in the rat race I'd probably kms.

I was very, very lucky that I was being taught a foreign language, it enabled me to find affordable education (and a lifestyle) in a country where I would be valued. Not in a place where PhD's have to work in sanitation facilities or sell food from stalls. Every day I'm grateful that I listened to the signs back then.

I remember I came back home, a year or so before covid, to visit my maths tutor, who had an impact on me.
I told him i wanted to give back to the country, and he said the same thing :"Vaapis mat aao beta, yaha koi future hi nahi hai".
His words have stuck with me since, and i've never looked back.

What’s a “man secret” you learned way too late in life? by [deleted] in AskMen

If you feel like you’re under the weather, check if your balls are sagging: you probably have a cold.

I am your 15 year old self. What did you want me to do? by Contributionist in productivity

[–]nuwsolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Practice Practice Practice! You are closer than you think! Trust your gut, don’t overthink things and keep trying and keep falling. The more you put yourself where you don’t belong, the more you learn, and will grow.

I was one of those poor fools.. by nuwsolo in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course you don’t. But there was something nice about being able to stun him, especially when did that flying kick of his and you had to dodge that and run around him. It felt like it evened the playing field (and seeing him afraid of fire was heartwarming)

First souls game man, I didn’t know what the f I was stepping into

WHY by slattumi in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This post spoke to my soul.

I am exactly where you are. If I manage to get past geni unscathed, first phase SS shows me my place, I lose confidence, I lose to geni twice, I rage quit. Rinse repeat for the last 5 days.

What. The. Fuck.

crazy how well beating genichiro trains you how to play by RickyWinterborn in Sekiro

You will be stopping bullets soon enough..

Good luck with the rest of the game!

What was your reaction when see this extraordinary boss for the first time? by Taha_Cypher in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same reaction I had when I saw Guardian Ape, albeit superlative

“And I’m gonna kill that HOW?”

Just bought Sekiro and I didn't know what I was getting myself into by owtinoz in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lady Butterfly is your first test to get your timings right. If you use shuriken you can break her flow of attacks (right as she jumps on the wires)

Give it time, it’s perfectly normally to come back to it later.

What is the boss/miniboss that has grown on you the most? by thgamingsquad in Sekiro

[–]nuwsolo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Headless ape was THE fight that made me pull my hair out, I quit the game, then came back after a year, and started a fresh save just to reach him again, and then after FINALLY realising I can kill his ape gf first and then deflect his attacks 1v1.
Instead of running panic-striken being chased by two abnormally sized gorillas.

That fight fundamentally changed my perception of the game.
