>enemy already in the middle of an attack animation input reads your attack and dodges away with a cancel
It's insane how nobody cares because Sekiro is a shitty parryslop game.
The funniest thing about Sekiro for me is that actionfags who berated Souls games for not having combos (they do) or proactive combat (they absolutely do) started shilling it as great action game, proving they have shit taste and the whole character action genre died for a good reason

>>716483442 (OP)
I always thought it was shallow as fuck.
It's a shame that this got GOTY but not Bloodborne or Dark Souls 3

>character action
Is it called like that because only the MC does actions? Then Sekiro is the opposite
All the MC does is react to actions

People just like Sekiro because its thing Japan but really its one of the weakest games. It also takes no skill because you can literally beat the game by spamming the parry button with little to no repercussions

>>716483442 (OP)
ya see seriko is like a rhythm game just like dance dance revolution all you do is respond to the prompts

>>716483442 (OP)
What's insane to me is how /v/ hated Dark Souls 3 weapon arts for being useless (even though they weren't and they always had benefits like hyperarmor, more status, higher damage,...) but is perfectly ok with trash prosthetics and combat arts
Also shitters love Sekiro because standing still and recating is the winning strategy, so that explains why it is so beloved

>>716484238
This complaint is a nonissue. This is what action games are. You press buttons at the right time to dodge/block/parry, you press buttons are the right time to combo. DMC, Ninja Gaiden, Bayonetta, God Hand, every one of these are just rhythm games. Want something different? Play a strategy game.

>>716484348
the combat arts were useless in sekiro as well

>>716484529
Play better games

Sekiro is the best From soft game.
I will not elaborate, iykyk

>>716484774
>play strategy games
Yeah, that’s what I suggested.

>>716483442 (OP)
>my headcanon is that people who like CAGs also like Sekiro
>therefore CAG-likers are big gay!!!
take your meds retard

Play

Games

>>716483442 (OP)
I really hated how 90% of shinobi tools and special moves where absolutely useless on your first playthough until you learned what bosses/enemies they could be used on to cheese them. Like Firecrackers on beast enemies. But by then you finished the game.

>>716485029
>headcanon
CAG-gers are very upront about liking Sekiro, it's in every one of their threads.
It fits perfectly too, very shallow basic game, tons of gimmicky boring bosses, it's basically MGRR

>>716485225
>I really hated how they ripped off the most iconic thing about Ninja Gaiden
me too, Ninja Gaiden is dogshit just like Sekiro

>>716483442 (OP)
Why is that bad? Why should enemies play "fair" and do retarded things for your convenience?

>>716485195
>play rhythm games
You can totally play those too. There are plenty of good ones like BB.

>>716485284
You're inventing people to be angry about. The regular CAG threads that belong on >>>/vg/ have ONE retard who likes Sekiro and everyone else shits on him

>>716483442 (OP)
Game’s great. Die mad.

>>716484529
>This complaint is a nonissue. This is what action games are.
No, this is what you think they are

>enemy already in the middle of an attack animation input reads your attack and dodges away with a cancel
The player can do the same thing. How is this a problem? You are literally arguing with yourself. Big schizo energy.

>>716483442 (OP)
mad because bad
git gud

>>716485594
>The player can do the same thing.
Not when into the actual attack

>>716485380
I don't give a fuck about vg and there's no regular thread there

>>716485549
So, what do you do in an action game in your own words?

>>716485704
>The regular CAG threads
Okay so this establishes the subject of the sentence
>that belong on >>>/vg/
This implies that they're not posted on /vg/ even though they belong here or I wouldn't have said "that belong"
>have ONE retard who likes Sekiro and everyone else shits on him
You made an entire thread to bitch about one person because the vast majority of CAG players hate Sekiro you fucking idiot lmao

>>716485790
Many strategies that don't rely exclusively on timing

>>716485871
Caggers do threads on /v/, retard

Play actual action games, Fromdrones. I know it's hard to keep your mouth out of Miyazaki's tiny cock.

>>716483442 (OP)
I think you doing a double jump and landing on his head when he was doing a sweep perilous attack caused the game to think you performed a head stomp, but since you actually did the double jump before the actual perilous prompt it didn't fully register as a jump counter

>>716485998
Including…?
>>716486121
See this reply chain>>716484529

>>716484628
Mikiri counter is almost a necessity (you can technically parry thrusts, but it's a small window and you don't get the stamina damage) and the Senpou stuff was so busted they had to nerf it in patches. Ichimonji is also pretty good.

>>716485195
Such as? Why are you saying stupid shit like "play better games" after the poster already named a bunch of games that are considered the best action games in the genre? Name these mysterious unknown "better games" so we can all experience them.

>>716486667
Spacing
Positioning
Hyperarmor
Stagger
Ranged
Combo

>>716487032
Such as games where the enemy doesn't cheat out of attacks ao you can reliably punish them and strategize around their attack animations instead of fishing for parries in a game with less depth than punch out

>>716486085
please post the conversation into your favorite LLM and ask it to explain to you why you're an illiterate monkey

>>716487570
Name. Them.

>but mooom the game is cheating
man shut the fuck up

Elden Ring
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne

“I don’t want difficulty”

>>716485225
I used firecrackers, and ichimonji 1/2, and the normal and purple umbrella near the end. Crackers are just very usable on everyone, the double chop and single chop skills also don't cost currency to use and lets you play more sloppily cause it clears your posture bar. To be honest this is similar to other souls game where there is a clear winner of a weapon set up and you never have to leave it.

>>716488463
Sekiro isn't difficult, it's actually too easy

>>716483442 (OP)
is that supposed to be shown in the video? because it's not.
