I buff golden vow fire grant me strength, damage negation physic) spam (ash of war) endure and bloodflame talons and everyone died. It's hard if you play only one playstyle and that is having a rolling contest, roll 8 times, stab one time. Stop doing that and the DLC is not that hard. And for ashes of war, golden land for example is easily OP and can get you through everything so Idk..I think people get locked in to one playstyle and if they cant parry or roll every attack of the boss it's suddenly hard, it's not you are just gimping yourself, thats my opinion, great video!

This kind of just seems like a difficulty tier list. Rather than judging the actual quality of the bosses in a rounded way. Watchman and Fuoco are high-quality, early game bosses for a soulslike, easily A or B for both of them. Arent bullshittingly difficult because of unreasonable spam. I personally think Romeo is probably the only S tier boss in this game. The spectacle of the fight alone is an S+.

Lady Butterfly and Genichiro? Is the only swap I would do as I think many Sekiro fans would only bec? Genichiro is basically a tutorial for how Sekiro is going to be played and the way they executed that with all the counters being invloved as well as the lightning reversal? Its just to smooth to not be a universal S tier. Lady Butterfly is an AMAZING fight? But it does not have all the counters ingrained as the Genichiro fight.

I dont agree with folding screen monkeys being an AWFUL boss fight. It is meant to be a great gimmick boss fight. A boss fight being good or bad is not determined by how hard it is, but rather by whether it fulfills its role in the story and gameplay properly. If its role is to be a gimmick fight, so be it. The Divine Dragon is a great example of this, it is an awesome fight which is super easy and is meant to be a visual spectacle. I would put monkeys at C, definitely not D or below. Also Genichiro Ashina is the second best boss after sword saint isshin in my opinion. He embodies the massive skill check one expects at that point in the game and is absolutely fun to fight. None of the other bosses match the adrenaline he offers until Isshin (or maybe Owl father) shows up. Lady butterfly is not so good to be in S tier, she may be a B or at most A tier but not higher. She barely has a moveset worth remembering.
@smaldor
@smaldor Ай бұрын
I may have not stated in this video but for me personally, difficulty absolutely does factor into how good a boss is (hard for sake of being hard also is bad tho). I just don't really like gimmick fights at all. Fun factor matters to me and this fight is not fun in any way for me. Genichiro I can definitely see being higher. Its a great boss. But both Owl fights imo are still superior. I'm also mega biased for lady butterfly cuz in my 1st playthru she was my first boss and spent forever lol. I respect your opinion tho ofc! its all for fun :)

just 1 things to add, Genichiro is S tier cause of how well designed it is, if you don't understand basics it might be the hardest fight and vice versa, its also a skill check, and his floating passage combo is the hardest combo to deflect in the entire game, it never gets old, and inner geni takes it to next level. Also lightening deflect is soooooo satisfying

Great video, and I agree with most the points “gh” and “cg” let’s say were good bosses but the finicky hit boxes does hold them back. I think what you should have also mentioned was the grab attacks in the dlc, while some balanced some of them feel like they are straight up bs like “gh”. However, I do disagree with the looting, while yes there are areas were u would get shit rewards, and the countless chests with smithing stone 7s is annoying as shit, the exploration I felt was very rewarding with the addition of so many fucking +10 and +25 stones and new weapons in the “firey areas” for example. Also I don’t think it’s as barron as you said, I feel like while he’s there was open space main game had way more areas like why this was here, atleast in my mind, rarely I had areas of open space that wouldn’t lead to anywhere(only exception is kinda Roah, but even then I wasn’t disappointed, just hard to navigate the area). Great dlc and great review, was very challenged, granted I did challenge myself but I had a lot of fun with it and I think it’s probably top 3 dlcs from has made.

good list based takes, would of liked to see your takes on ER though. IMO personally a lot of people cut it too much slack solely because its either their first souls like or are blind to its failures (intentionally or not). The game probably has some of Fromsofts highest highs and lowests lows. Their animation work is top tier, the enemy visual design is great as well, and the addition of jumping/crouching adds a extra layer of mechanics to the gameplay I enjoyed. The music was alright, but personally I felt like it was kinda lackluster compared to some older tracks in the previous games. The open world is too large and underutilized, especially in the later parts of the game in mountaintop and even in the DLC there is a lot of dead empty space. A lot of encounters just dont feel rewarding on your first playthrough whenre a lot of the loot feels completely useless and you dont know where to get the things that you actually need are. The open world also forces From to resuse a lot of their enemies in a manner which I found to be quite cheap, uninteresting, and kind of harms the incentive for players to explore when they are just fighting the same side enemies over and over again. I can only get so excited about seeing the same ulcerated tree boss or asylum demon reskins so many times. The Ashe of War System and the Spirit Ashe system in addition to the open world aspect kind of allows the player to trivialize the game entirely. There is way less incentive to learn boss movesets or mechanically improve when you can just summon a spirit ashe (without increasing the boss's HP scaling btw), allow it to tank, whilst you wail on the enemy mindlessly. Ashes of War in this game also make its extremely easy as you can just put broken any ashe on most weapons and just completely steamroll enemies (lions claw, swift slash, BHS/raptors of the mist for insane i-frame, black flame tornado, pre-nerf seppuku, pre-nerf hoarfrost, and more). The weapons in the game are also the most overpowered we've ever seen with stuff like Blasphemous Blade and Moonveil deleting enemies + incredible sustain + knockldown power. Status Effects have also never been stronger, with bleed, frost, and scarlet rot being able to take over 30-50% of a bosses HP bar throughout an entire fight. Now stuff like deleting bosses have been in previous games before but I feel like it has been been this easy, not that its necessarily bad but it feels like you are not really incentivized to earn your victories like before but rather to just L2 spam your way to a win with a summon at your back. Another thing is a multiplayer which took a huge step back from DS3 going from 6 players to 4 players and only allowing hosts to be invaded when they had a summon. fight clubs are kind of dead and always invading into 2v1, 3v1 gets a little stale. The arena maps are also a step back from the DS3 arenas with every single one of them being a giant ass circle with barely any cover. the covenant system has also been completely removed without a replacement or an attempt at improving it and the Netcode is as per usual completely trash.
