It’s Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice for me. I wasn’t sure I would like it for the first hour or so—I don’t like big penalties for death, and losing half my xp and money felt rough. But now that I figured out some loss mitigation strategies and started getting better at parrying, I’m really liking it.

That’s one of my all-time favourite games. How far are you? I’m jealous you get to experience it for the first time.

I’m moving through it very slowly. I just beat that ogre creature who was afraid of fire—only like three bonfires (or whatever this game calls them) in. Loving it, though!

Oh nice. There’s only two bosses/mini-bosses I dislike in that game, that one’s one of them. It just doesn’t seem very Sekiro to me personally. The next section is one of my favourite parts though, which makes up for it for me. Good luck! It’s an awesome experience, and one of the few games I’ve bothered to get all the achievements for.
