How does Sekiro Shadows die Twice distinguish itself from Bloodborne and Dark Souls? VaatiVidya and I break it down in my Sekiro review for this week's Completionist.

Special thank to Vaati for being one of the foremost lore experts on anything From Software, and a great guy for being part of today's episode. Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice had an aura of mystery about it. Would this be the Bloodborne 2 people were dreaming of? Well, no. We got something very different. Something that broke the mold of what we are used to in From Software games by removing the stamina bar and adding posture. And though a little jarring at first, it works great and leads to a lot of very satisfying moments. There's a lot to unpack here, so let's jump into my Sekiro review!

Absolutely love your work dude. I’ve gained so much appreciation of the depth of the SoulsBorne lore after watching your videos. You articulate so well without needing to use profanity in every other word like a lot of other SoulsBorne KZfaqrs. Your videos are well told stories, that never sound like you’re just reading from a script. Out of every KZfaqr I’m subscribed too, your videos are of the few that I can view multiple times. Keep up the excellent work.

Get scholar of the first sin if you decide to try it out, but be warned as it is quite a bit more difficult than the standard version. Bloodborne is easily my favorite soulsborne game, and you’ll have a great experience if you enjoy it even half as much as I do

Softcaps at what, 11? And I think 99 is only twice as much attack? It's definitely more worth getting the rest of the skills just for completionist sake than farming till you get 99 attack power, and finishing the game with only the attack power you get from bosses.

I got a PS5 a few weeks ago, and got Demon's Souls as a gift. Trying hard to get into the Souls/Borne genre with Demon's Souls and Bloodborne. Demon's Souls left me a bit cold, since it feels very slow, and enemies tend to wombo combo you if you make a single mistake or miss one in a pack with your initial attack. A week with it, and I was bored and stuck. Bloodborne was better, with a faster paced more offensive combat, but it feels a bit clunky and has a lot of visual stutter even on the newest hardware. At least I wasn't hiding behind a shield the whole time...but I also had a really tough time dealing with more than 1 or 2 enemies at once. Then I played Sekiro, and suddenly and finally understood that sense of overcoming and triumph that everyone says defines these games--a sense I couldn't touch in the others. Working my way through it now, and this video explains wonderfully why this is my Souls/Borne game of choice.

I'm on my 7th playthrough. Dark Souls has been my favorite game of all time since I first played it many years ago. Right now, I feel like Sekiro has finally dethroned it. I still think the world design is better in Dark Souls, but that is easily made up for by the sheer amount of fun I've been having with Sekiro. I get excited every time I'm heading to the next boss, even though I've beat them 6 times already (except for the stupid screen monkeys). Taking them down again, this time with so much more proficiency than my first run, is just so satisfying and enjoyable.

Soulslike are games which use some aspects of DS like: - the typical gameplay, ez to play, hard to master (its kinda weird cause many games are like that but thats what most people would say) - punishment for death, loosing currency - chekpoints which resurrect enemies - hard bossfights (like the first point) Some game are called Soulslike even tho they dont seem like one, like Hollow Knight and Salt and Sanctuary.
