    • @dapper_chocobo2332
      @dapper_chocobo2332 4 місяці тому

      "Souls games" have essentially become their own genre. Tenchu is series but no one really says these games are "Tenchu games". Also the problem with Souls-likes and Souls adjacent games is people start to nitpick what aspects about them are and are not "proper Souls elements". I think we can all agree there is a specific handful of things that qualify.

      @@REDSHADOWS18 Powerful bosses used to be the norm in games also unlike in Souls games you cannot create a broken build that pisses on them in Sekiro. You use what the game gives you. Stealth, your katana, items and acrobatics. You know...like a Tenchu game kiddo. Oh a save system that brings enemies back when you die...you mean like...a checkpoint system. 🤤 You lose money/exp in literally every rpg ever when you die. I guess WoW is a soulslike too according to you. I understand your generation is stupid and lazy and needs to shove everything into broad categories (I get it I grew up in the 90's when every FPS was called a "Doom Clone") but Sekiro has such a radically different feel to any "soulslike" that comparing it is assinine. If FromSoft wasn't the publisher you wouldn't make this claim. Oh hey Armored Core also has tough bosses, makes you lose money when you die and has a system that punishes you for failure. iT's A sOuLsLiKE tOo!!! Also try not to be such a c*nt to people who know more than you kiddo, its not a good look.

    48:59 Yes play very similarly! You're not crazy and nice to see someone who knows what they are doing. I usually make my starter base out of one of the abandoned structures, preferably near the Black Forest, because well I'm lazy. The Maypole place at 50:00 near the sea would also be a prime location. 52:40 you can shoot the be hive with arrows to drop it. I do scout out the area quite a bit and live off the land til I find a good spot. The camp @ 47:16 gives you core wood and the stone grave site to the left usually has skele bones.. but not a big deal. I run flint axe/shield as my main weapon till I can get the bronze axe/sword and not a spear guy as it doesn't have a sweeping hit for multiple targets.... but anything works in the meadows obviously. I always mark where the red mushrooms spawns. Not a hardcore survival game player but this is one of the best games I have ever played. GL!
