But the difficulty of most of the mini-bosses and proper bosses more than make up for it. I definitely give Soulsborne games having more difficult areas to traverse (Sekiro doesn't have a Valley of Defilement, Blighttown, Frigid Outskirts, Fishing Hamlet, or Ringed City). Throw in the option to grind for your stats and equipment as well as being able to summon for help, I just don't see the argument that Sekiro is the easiest in general holding up. That will carry you through all the NG+ cycles. Whether it's Flamelurker, Artorias, Sinh, Ebrietas, or Midir, all you gotta remember is when to dodge. Hell, I played through all of Dark Souls: Remastered twice earlier this year and I breezed through it, too.ĭoesn't matter what build you have in any of the games prior to Sekiro every non-gimmick encounter can be simply solved with the press of the one dodge button at the right time. I say this having completed all the Soulsborne games multiple times through multiple NG+ cycles and all the major builds. For every boss I've faced so far, I've never had that common Soulsborne thought "oh come on, how is this possible?" You always have the tools to defeat your enemy at your disposal, and that truly makes this game great.Ĭue imminent frustration at endgame bosses.īefore I jump back into the hell I've chosen for myself, I just wanna chime in and say Sekiro isn't close to being the easiest of From's modern games, especially if we're comparing first playthroughs of each game. It's amazing to me that, no matter how many times I lose to a boss, it never feels impossible. I'm fascinated by the fact that some people had trouble with the Shinobi Hunter, whereas on the flip side I'm sure that there are many that can't imagine struggling at the second boss on my list. Still, it only took about ten tries.I find it so interesting to see what bosses people have trouble with. I didn't know until later that you can get a stealth hit on Shirafuji, but the fight is just more annoying than anything else. Snake-Eyes Shirafuji - I cheesed Shirahagi with poison because these are the only bosses that I legitimately hate. I kept getting tripped up and frustrated by the environment, which I now recognized in retrospect was there to tell me "STOP STEP-DODGING, DUMBASS." This was about a dozen tries. Long-Arm Centipede Sen'Un - I knew how to take care of him, but hadn't put together that you were supposed to jump kick instead of dodge his sweep. This is what made me had to learn to parry, making the rest of the game so far a cakewalk.Ģ. Lady Butterfly - About two dozen attempts, almost made me quit.
