The funny thing is this is just a guy making zero progress in the fight, and yet it still looks badass

I love when this game puts you in the zone. You feel untouchable even if it is only a few seconds.

"parry this you filthy casul" *actually parries the bullets* "hol' up"

Sekiro: has a katana and the Mortal Blade Also Sekiro: foot-bonks isshin

Dark Souls fans when parrying once doesn't let them insta-kill their opponent

I love how Isshin just pulls out a glock when all else fails

This actually one of those games that is actually way more cooler than advertised if you decide to play it for yourself. I fricking love this game, man.

I screamed "What!!?" too loudly at Popeye's when I saw the gun parry and now everyone is looking at me like I found a rat on my food.

This is how I always wished action RPG combat would be, rather than two people with swords repeatedly hacking into each other.

Jeez your parrying is perfect! I’m struggling hard to beat this guy with Bell Demon and Charmless active; I just finished Mortal Journey a few days ago without these difficulty boosters, but having them enabled makes it a whole different game (blocking instead of parrying by accident is so detrimental to your health).

the combat in this game is so satisfying! wish there were more games like these.

I really love this game, not the biggest fan of all from's games, but sekiro really clicked with me. The most amazing thing about this game in my opinion, is Ishiins line "hesitation is defeat" actually applies to the game. Every time I was not 100% sure of what I was doing I was getting punished for it. Every time I hesitated to block or to dodge or w/e I was getting punished for it. Every time I was locked in and ready, everything was easy.

I always play reflection when I need to remember how amazing the gameplay is!

I love this boss, i've fought it too many times so something inside me keeps screaming at every opportunity to counter in this clip. Absolutely phenomenal, just standing there, looking at Isshin in the eyes.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Sekiro has the best combat system in any game

You know this guy is a chad when he chose to deflect a thrust rather than doing a mikiri counter

Sekiro probably has the best sword combat I've ever seen. It feels so good to parry and that Mikiri counter is the chef's kiss.

Nice combos :-) ... every time I replay Sekiro I remember how good the bosses truly are!

Sekiro truly does become something compelling when you play using your entire repertoire. Sometimes we go in with the HUD disabled and nothing else can beat that feeling.

The fact you have gotten this far in a relatively upgradeless AND no katana run is truly incredible

This is basically the sequel to “I LOVE SEKIRO”.

I love that you'll never get posture broken if you continue to parry the hits perfectly.

Gives me flashbacks to the boss rush feature, been a while since I fought this guy last. With that said, he'll probably keep his mantle as the best FromSoft boss even after Elden Ring in my books. Such a perfect fight.

Fight still gets my heart pumping. Sekiro and the parry system brings the stress like no other.

when players can dodge and parry = sekiro is so amazing when players suck at it = trash game, garbage

Parries instead of Mikiri countering... What a madman

I never parry even in the other games, so I still wonder if my ass is truly ready for Sekiro's demands

Elden Ring has a tough job to do surpassing this masterpiece. Sekiro is just a truly perfect game.

“What’s he doing?” … “HE IS BEGINNING TO BELIEVE”

That's how i play Sekiro, then the dream ends.

Bringing a Glock into swordfight is amazing

Sekiro is basically the most best Metal ASMR u can find in a video game

0:07 I've played into NG+4 and had no idea you could do that backflip

Looks like a movie but is a game *chef kiss

This was my first From Software game and to this day my favorite. One of my favorite games of all time. Combat is just so fucking epic and tense. They nailed sword play.

1. Parry everything he's got 2. Goomba stomp to assert dominance

This game intends to be as amazing as the player.

For some reason, this reminds me of that scene from Samurai Jack where he managed to beat five bounty hunters at the speed of a drop of water hitting the ground!

Sekiro’s combat is incredible. It looks awesome even when you’re getting your ass clapped.

"Do you like anime?" Me:

The fact that this is a casual and normal gameplay clip.

Once u get into the groove of things it has some of the best sword combat I’ve ever experienced in a video game

I love when they parry the thrusts instead of spamming mikiri

Deflecting Isshin's thrust just to flex on your viewers

I think the dopest mechanic I learned about in this game was using the mist raven feather to counter the lightning. The animation for it is insane

Best souls game no doubt

The inner variants scare me with that posture.

I've never played a game which matched the intensity and thrill of clashing swords like Sekiro does.

I was expecting you to fall off the cliff lmao

The after this perfect streak you get hit once and it's done. Then the video is suddenly ''why Sekiro is fucking annoying'' in 32 seconds.

I love how you end up almost on the exact same spot where the video began. Makes for a nice loop

In Sekiro parrying is considered a victory.

As a bloodborne player DAM bro this looks dope af, perfect parrys. Surely going to my wish list

I loved the combat in this game. I kinda wish they did something similar with Elden Ring.

I just wanna say that the music in this game absolutely SLAPS

I absolutely loved when he bounced on his head at the end of the clip It feels like he said to him : good fight gigiy san

Definitely one of the best, if not THE best game I've ever played

I read somewhere that Sekiro was a side project for From Software team while they are working on Elden ring!! If this is a SIDE project i cant imaging how much talented the team is or how much elden ring would be a masterpiece..

Isshin is so strong, he even decimates video's bitrate with each hit

9 mounth and this mad lad still answers comments! I remember when I first completed Mortal Journey Charmless and with Bell Demon on, It was hard as balls, I panicked a lot at the last Inner Ishin fight, so I kept losing one resurrection and right after using a revival replenish items just because I was so afraid that I had to do it all over again. And In the end, I did it, and it felt really good. Sometimes I come back to this game, to beat up Inner bosses, to see if I still got that skill that I honed so many hours at gauntlets, and 95% I first try all of them. So as one cool character said once: "I tip my hat to you, as one Legend to another".

No hesitation. haha well played

I am at very early stages of game and could not even imagine myself facing such tough opponents 😅😅😅

Parrying the deadly attack because you can. Big flex

*fights in an anime be like*

alternate title: why flexing feels amazing

I’ve never played a more satisfying game….

My man’s out here parrying mikiris. Super impressive, although way less effective.

Dude is fighting Inner Isshin with 25% health and a freaking nightjar.

Hey hey! This kinda blew up, Thanks!

Subete o parry suru yo

i felt the need to throw up when he deflected that instead of mikiri countering it

Once the parry mechanic clicks, you literally feel like a Shinobi bad-ass!

0:11 I don't think I've ever seen all four shots perfectly deflected before. I was sure they suffered from the strange timing issue that Genichiro's combo does. Although I guess they still might, and you've perfected that rythm.

Word to everything the combat system in this game was sick

I will never understand how the players poise doesn’t get effected even tho it’s almost full the entire boss fight

Isshin: "Parry this u casul." Sekiro: "Okay! "

Best combat in any game I’ve played. Absolutely love this beautiful game

what are you doing you didnt mikiri counter

that was a smooth sequence comrade

I'm convinced

Just a straight masterpiece of a game 🔥

FromSoft dont make games, they make Art. Sekiro is brilliant.

pov: you have mastered ultra dinkstink

When the dude known as "the sword saint" pulls up with a fucking hand gun you know its boutta get serious

It doesn't look that amazing when I'm playing it

I'm still blown away by how From Soft managed to make a game so different from dark souls which they are used to, but at the same time make it souls like.

Wow, never thought I'd find this video again. Behold, the clip that made me buy Sekiro :)

You know this is an amazing samurai fight when the enemy has a *literal gun.*

Sekiro was a bit easier for me to pick up than Soulsborne, being someone who finished Devil May Cry 5 shortly before purchasing Sekiro. The parrying system works quite similarly (at least in my opinion) to Dante's Royal Guard blocks, so having a game that focuses specifically around that mechanic was a nice change of pace from the standard Soulsborne. It's also a much more cinematic game; The trails of enemy weapon strikes in boss battles make you feel like a seinen anime protagonist

Easily one of the best games I have ever played.

Sekiro = SwagSouls

Sekiro, when combat in videogames peaked. It's hard as fuck, You can't level anything (unless you kill bosses and minibosses) and can't change build. You have to "git gud". But when you do? Oh boy. Be ready for the time of your life. Once it clicks it's one of the best feelings in the world. It's the only FS game that makes me feel like I'm FIGHTING the boss and not just barely surviving the boss Edit: 3 goddamn typos, my screen goes dark after one sentence so I'm writing pretty much blind

Loved this game way more than Demons Souls on PS5. I know they have different play styles despite being from the same developer, but I just prefer the faster pace of Sekiro, and dying is more forgiving here.

0:11 where dafuq he got the glock.

One of THE best melee combat systems ever devised by anyone lol

Fighting Isshin is frickin amazing

I wish I didn't find sekiro so hard, everyone recommended me this game because I love the dark souls trilogy, and even though they told me it was much easier I'm struggling so much. Either way, it is truly a great game and I'll eventually beat it, even if it takes me a lot of time

Way better than Elden Ring.

What is that disrespect at the end 💀

Isshin never met a parry ninja before.
