Anyone else felt a strong connection to kill bill? Having to kill the group for bill and the third boss fight is in a snowy area fighting against a girl in a komono
I call him Sin ... because of the sins of his father and his own . Btw beating this game at 20 without dying at all took me a lil bit to master all of the combat . Truly a masterpiece
No the throwing people off ledges and stabbing with a knife thing isnt canon, if you really want to play the game how the story was intended dont ever pick up a weapon and dont enviromental kill or use executions
@@kylerrugo7097you can literally throw them over ledges to their death. This is the problem with games about revenge that try so hard to make you seem like the bad guy just for balancing the scales of justice. It’s never as simple as everyone likes to make it. I don’t like Sifu’s story for the same reason I hate TLOU Part 2, it’s preachy as hell with the way it integrates the theme with the gameplay and story. The progression is great but the story choices aren’t.
@@WrottJacksonur actually an idiot. the said "minions" are all trying to kill you, same as the ones in the last of us 2, which you can sneak/run past anyway. you cant sneak past the ones in sifu. the main character is merely defending himself.
@@LUNARBL00M you can’t play either game without killing random NPCs who aren’t the people you’re after. TLOU Part 2 also literally has you kill a dog after they explicitly said it would be optional and you could avoid it. You can’t. You can sneak past a lot of them but not even near all of them, both games suffer for it considering the message they’re trying to send and fail miserably at it. I don’t know if you’ve actually played TLOU Part 2 you literally can’t play the game without mindlessly killing people.
@@WrottJackson well if you read my comment, you would see that i said that Ellie and the main character from sifu only killed the minions (when they had to) in self defense. yeah, you kill a dog at the end of seattle day 3 but what were you supposed to do, let the dog kill you? And yes, you can sneak past most of the encounters. And the ones that you cant sneak past, youre just trying to get out alive. Also, yes i have played the last of us 2. and for sifu, its a fducking kung fu game, obviously your gonna beat some people up lmao. the difference between tlou 2 and sifu is that sifu has a high score system, which means if you want to get the high score, youre gonna have to rough some people up. i get what ur saying about killing npcs but in the last of us 2, when you dont have a choice to kill, its kill or be killed.
I was really hoping for more explanation on the symbolism, and the mispronunciations were grating, but overall a fine simplified telling of the events.
Wait i just realise something… is fajar an homage to mad dog’s character in the raid? From his indo-melayu name and his weapon of choice, combined with the location of his area?
I think so.fajar is a common name in Indonesia & Malaysia. ( I'm Indonesian ). and yes, I think that sifu pays tribute to a lot of Martial art & action movies such as the raid, kill bill, old boy, and classic golden harvest kungfu movie. and the location at the fajar stage, it kind a homage to the raid 1.
@@yarravedder2616 there was a hallway sequence in the slums level that was a blatant easter egg of the iconic hallway fight scene in the original old boy
Also, in the deluxe edition, there’s a special challenge run for Fajar’s level you can do, and if you complete it, you get a suit which is a blatant reference to the Raid
@@Anakin_Spiegel it isn’t about knowing that you’re the better fighter, it’s about having the strength to forgive those who have wronged you for the right reasons, plus after the murdering of our father Yang and his group went on to actually help people, even Fajar helps by producing a harmless hallucinogen to help Yang’s patients.
Damn I mean I’m happy that your enjoying it that much but jeez you act like it’s Skyrim or something. The story is kinda vague. It’s almost like they did it on purpose so you can focus on how awesome the combat was
@@sugoi9680 I play on Chinese dialogue. I get it’s technically shifu but 1. I’m American 2. I just brought up a kung fu panda reference that clearly flew past your head bc Po pronounces (see-fu)
I love the fighting gameplay they developed, it really feels like a martial art. The controls are well thought and natural. I played it a lot the first time, then, throught sheer luck, I realize you can spare the bosses and played a lot more. After a year, every now an then I played a little because as I said, I love the fighting mechanics, and it is like I never stopped played, the mechanics of the controls are a part of my brain so a after one try I reach optimum performance. I recommend this game to everybody. It is a masterpiece.
Technically speaking, they did kill the child. He just came back to life due to magic. Either way that’s not the point. There is a message behind the cycle of violence in the game. The point isn’t that they were wrong or right, but rather that revenge is not the way to move forward and grow. Instead the goal is to move past vengeance, even if it is more difficult to do so, because it will lead to the betterment of yourself, and the world around you. It’s the philosophy of Wudan. Further context for the bosses if you want to read Fajar is suffering from a severe illness, hence why he’s mute, his mind is addled by drugs, and is clearly unwell all around. Kuroki feels extreme guilt because of what she did, and has her time reflecting her sense of guilt. The museum exhibit is literally all about dealing with feelings of loss, and anger. AkA her art is a reflection of her act of revenge, and wether or not she truly feels justified, and can move on. Yang was desperate to save his wife and child with Sifu’s medallion, but his master refused him and his family died as a result pushing him to seek revenge. You have to put yourself in his shoes, imagine living in a world where the ability to resurrect or prevent death and suffering through magical means was possible, wouldn’t you want to use it? What if it was to save the person you love most? What if your master refuses to help you? Would you consider your family’s death inevitable or would you believe that your master, refusing to treat your family, essentially killed them? Ying Fang’s whole motivation was taking down all Kung Fu masters, because like Sifu himself, they were hoarding the mystical powers that they could use for the betterment of the world, but instead kept it for themselves. Her detective file tells us she’s incredibly philanthropic, so we can assume the suffering of others is something that is extremely important to her life. We don’t have a full sense of what happened to her in the past, but we can tell from her old age that she had wished that this knowledge was shared for a long time, and Yang’s revenge on Sifu was an opportunity to do the right thing, in her own way. The only one I don’t quite understand is Sean. He’s by all means motivated purely by the thrill of combat martial arts. His body is covered in scars, and he brands his students when they graduate. The only thing I’m willing to point out confidently is that, in spite of his outwardly violent appearance, there’s something to be said for how much respect his lackeys hold for him, since they go through hell for his approval, and even if they’re serving someone else like Kuroki, they reference their disdain for how you took down their master. One last thing. Consider that, in the same way you took down all 5 bosses, and they were heads of their own respective empires, they did the same thing before you came along, at least if we can take the list from Ying Fang’s list at face value. Consider also that while you’re a one man army, they don’t posses a mystical talisman that allows them to come back to life. TL;DR : Sifu is about learning to move past revenge, and there’s a lot of hidden lore behind the masters/bosses which illuminate reasons why they all decided to kill your father.
In what manner is it disrespectful, if being disrespectful to pixels on your screen and with no sentience whatsoever was a crime we'd all be in jail including you
I have no opinion, but I'm happy to know that there are 2 endings and you saved me time and money from playing so that I know how the game ends. I prefer a happy ending but the alternate ending is too vague for me to determine.
This is such a weird comment to me because wouldn’t you wanna play the game to figure the story out. I don’t mind people watching a video about the story but you said that it saved you time and money from buying and playing the game but that’s what games are meant for.
@@armored_guy if it's a dungeon crawler like Diablo and you get random items with the occasional rare goods, then it's a good game. But when the game is linear, like watching a movie, I'll rather watch the gameplay and see what the game is about and watch the ending.
@@gohjohan still is very weird to me because I just don’t get not playing the game if your interested that’s what makes it fun also just because a game is randomized doesent make it good and just because it’s linear doesent mean it’s bad.
![Sifu - Master Difficulty [ No Damage, Age 70, True Ending, No Shortcuts, Single Segment]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yk-MUhN6kUw/mqdefault.jpg)
Btw Yangs family died .. his wife and daughter were lost somehow ... that’s the two gravestone you see when u fight him in the spare ending
that’s why he wants the talisman. he wanted it to resurrect his wife and daughter
"Game Plot narrated" would be more accurate.

Yeah the kuroki fight is a pretty strong kill bill homage
o Ren ishii
kuroki is basicly o Ren ishii even to the part of both being japanese (O Ren is halth chinese and half japanese)
Kill Bill, Oldboy, Raid and Drive are clear inspirations.
For sure. They have a outfit ingame that is a reference to kill bill.
(Btw Idk if the outfit was in the game when op said this)

beating at 20 is much easier than 50. plus you look cool when you are 50
Did we forget about all those henchman/henchwomans we killed?
yeah it's always the same with games which says that revenge is bad
No the throwing people off ledges and stabbing with a knife thing isnt canon, if you really want to play the game how the story was intended dont ever pick up a weapon and dont enviromental kill or use executions
I wonder how we became moral in the end but end up killing all the minions…

Why do you think the club is a "Brothel"???
It’s not yong it’s literally Yang
He said the Chinese pronunciation of his name
You know what weird we don't know our characters name
Literally and it makes me mad
@@draykwonwilliams4314 fr I don't even have the game I watched Cory play it
The video didn't explained anything, it just narrated what happens in the game, the same information every player gets by just playing.
You uh...really...hate...words, huh...?
its not pronounced yawng its pronounced yaeng
It's a Chinese name. He pronounced it right.
Are you an android?
this dude sounds like an ai.
The city of China at the start no hate but that made me laugh
the i is long. sifu is dialect for shifu in chinese, which means master
The person sitting in the chair is the main protagonist
Oh yeh there’s a secret ending
The pronunciations here are terrible but the video is alright generally
Also, you can get the true ending on your first run btw
Thanks for watching 😊 😊
"Game plt narrated by AI"
I felt sorry for the villains. They just want to live in peace after they completed their vengeance. I guess my character was the villain all along.
Nah no remorse they killed sifu, cant leave a peaceful life after murder
They killed a man and attempted to kill a child
