Mods will be a thing (I guess unless you’re playing on console). And I doubt there will be any consequences for kids since there’s no multiplayer.

Anyone getting weird mini freezes when the game is doing cutscenes like it switches camera angles and the game stops for a second.

I need a programmer to hack the Sekiro mainframe and remove the FPS cap so I can utilize my monitors 144hz refresh rate.

It’s odd that this is FPS capped while DS2 and 3 weren’t

the only thing I want to be spoiled on is how dragonrot works. do you have to die or is it resurrecting and then dying again that causes it?

It's dying at all, not just the resurrect. I don't know if dying, resurrecting, and then dying again is 2x the dragonrot though. But you can't just avoid it altogether by not resurrecting.

DS2 and DS3 were fps capped in my experience. Maybe there was some third party stuff that uncapped it but I couldn't get either game to run above 60 fps

Spoiler to ask a question about death penalty

So I will probably die even more than most and I heard there is a penalty for dying in that NPCs get sick, and that you can cure them with a limited resource. My question - can you completely miss out on progress, and how limited is that resource, do we know yet?

If I know From then I would treat NPC quests as something you're meant to miss the first time and replay for.

So is there any reason not to resurrect? Can you bank them if you don’t use them?

just watch it for a second
As someone who played an okay amount of the Soulsborne games, this game has an imitative feel that’s hard to shake for me. Like I’m playing Nioh or Lords Of The Fallen.

Nice! I really can’t wait to join you guys when the game’s actually out my time, and post about how I’ve died *more than twice!*, I wanted to attempt to gently caress about with virtual private ninja poo poo, (also I agree with BP, it’s almost as boring as the framerate chat and all of the instructions on how to do it were already posted), but I decided not to and just meditated (slept) and then carved a hundred statues of Buddha for like 16 hours so I can stay up all night when I do get it in 3 hours and 23 minutes.

Also from the look of it, the boss you’d fight probably around the time you would fight Gehrman in Bloodborne is basically the Gehrman of Sekiro, or, he will test your willpower to continue if you’re not a true FromSoftware game lover.

Also I thought the English dub would be fine and interesting to do on my second playthrough, but there’s at least one annoying as poo poo NPC in a video I watched where the guy changed it to English. I still might though, but obviously doing Japanese on at least my first two save files.
