no. as far I can tell there are no enemies. and I dont think its an echo, its one of those ones that either gives you xp or health/force upgrade. you have to lift the pillars and jump on to them. but the timing has to be perfect and with how wonky it is with looking at the correct pillar, it’s infuriating. there is no lock on. getting the closest one to even give you the prompt is like a damn puzzle in itself. and aside from all that, its so easy to accidentally swing the saber instead of triggering the skill. not that this is a difficulty setting, but im playing on jedi master and this has been the hardest part. lol. I had to give up.

killed the guardian ape in sekiro. i read elsewhere there are multiple endings and im basically ready for one of them. or i can continue on and theres about 25% more game left. at this point im considering just doing the shorter ending. this game was great and I got gud…but I feel like ive seen all there is to offer. theres so many other games i want to dive into. currently playing Jedi: Survior. BOTW2 is coming in 2 weeks. still need to wrap up hogwarts and GOW2. can anyone who played all the way through sekiro convince im wrong and I should continue on? -

2.5hrs in on PS5 and I havent noticed any issues. Seems to run just fine and the haptics on the controller are awesome. its a beautiful game. that first “level” was so dense and around every corner was a sight to just stop and appreciate. that said….the game is pretty OK. So far more of the same. If you liked the first one, youll like this one too.

General Gaming What's the most difficult Souls game?

I just finally got him!! jesus christ I was shaking like a leaf. once you figure out lighting reversal in the 3rd phase it isnt terrible bc it does massive posture damage to him. and you have to play that phase with more room unlike first 2 where you need to keep the pressure on. if you create room, he does the lunge which is easy to mikiri or he jumps and does lightning. once I got the timing I cleaned up on him. -

I cant beat Genichiro ive done about 10-15 attempts. I can breeze through the first deathblow phase, but for some reason, the 2nd deathblow phase is kicking my ass. I cant read what periless attack he is going to do. it seems he stops doing the thrust, which is easy to mikiri. he seems to start doing a grab, kick or sweep. and i cant counter them. and once I step back to heal, I seem to never recover. i will say I was trying to save my rez for the lightning phase, but I think if I rez during the 2nd deathblow save, I would get it back. so I have to try again. whats funny is on like my 2-3 attempt I got to the lightning phase and had him down like 3/4. then he OHK me with that huge lightning aoe attack. I thought for sure I just needed another try or two to get him and i was never able to get back to that phase again. -

for those of you that had a hard time with Melania, were you using the mimic tear? I got her on my 2nd try and took almost no damage. I wouldve gotten her first try, but I wasn’t ready after the cut scene. I had my mimic tear at +10. and I feel like maybe I cheated myself out of a proper challenge. The bosses that game me a hard time were Placidusax, Maliketh and Elden Beast. -

I have completely fallen off with gaming and I entirely place the blame on Elden Ring. Not because I hated it…because I absolutely loved it and there really is nothing else like it out there (with the exception of BOTW, sorta). its so bad that I really haven’t enjoyed anything Ive played since…Horizon FW, God of War 2, Hogwarts….Ive played all of them and then fall off between 10-20hrs. They just dont scratch the itch that I have for something like Elden Ring. So I decided to give another souls a go, even though Ive tried just about all of them for a few hours and quit in frustration. So I decided, maybe stupidly…to give Sekiro another chance…and so far Im loving it. Ive beaten the first boss (dude on the horse), Lady Butterfly, The Bull and a bunch of mini bosses. Currently in the temple area, just beat the armored dude on the bridge. Also beat the guy just before Genichiro. Trying to level up once more before I fight Genichiro (tried him once and got him halfway down on his 2nd phase). What I dont like is that there really isnt builds or interesting loot to find. What I love is the level design and exploration. The whole game feels like a legacy dungeon in Elden Ring. What I also love is how liberal they are with shrines. What turned me off to other souls games is the relentless backtracking from the start of the level every time you die. completely turned me off. This game places shrines pretty frequently or there are very obvious shortcuts to get to where you want. I can deal with the difficulty so long as I dont have to replay an entire level just to get back to the same spot. However, with all that…I fully expect to hit a wall in this game and give up. But for now, it’s scratching the ER itch.
