Comment on Here's a hot take about Sekiro

I get why people love Sekiro, though it is a game I have played off and on for years now and just never finished. By the time I get myself resituated I start to lose energy for it again.
The biggest thing for me are the controls. The time and focus on committing everything to muscle memory is the barrier to Sekiro. As the years go on I find I just plain don’t have the brainspace for such a specialized game.

Luckily this game just clicked for me in that way with the parry system but I get why people would immediately be turned off if they couldn’t get it down.

The parry system isn’t really the barrier I think with the controls. If anything that is the most familiar and intuitive aspect of Sekiro. It is the additonal use of the grappling hook, prosthetic tools, and to a lesser extent consumables that throw me off.
