A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Is it your first time playing it? Sekiro is probably my favourite game of all time but it’s definitely not beginner-friendly. The steep learning curve is pretty intense but so worth it when it clicks!

Yep, first time. It feels so good when it clicks!

Enjoy! I wish I could play it for the first time again. How far have you made it so far?

I'm at the top of ashina castle. Spent a good couple of hours on that boss, was super happy to get past it. Then he threw off his clothes and got all lightningy. Haven't managed to get back to that phase yet.

Oh man, Genichiro is one of my favourite fights. Have you figured out how to do a lightning reversal yet? It’s pretty important for the lightning phase, and the game does a pretty poor job at explaining it

I've read about the lightning reversal before I knew he would use it, so I know what to try. The one time I had the opportunity, I timed it completely wrong, jumped too early and was on the ground again by the time it struck.
