Tenchu was a big part of my childhood. You'd think I'd be into the souls games from playing these games, but they never really clicked with me.

I love Tenchu and Souls, and to this day whenever someone talks about a stone im compelled to tell them that I know what they want. They want the stone. But it's safe...inside...my BE-lly! And theyre NOT going to get it. HEEEEHEEEEHEEEE!

The best part about that onikage link is that it goes straight into the boss music for him which is so good. For like 2 years in 4th and 5th grade i played not much else than MGS1 and Tenchu.

Second best stone reference is always gonna be Alone In The Dark's I don't have your stone and gently caress you anyways!

So the demo gameplay during events felt harder because you were supposed to use tactical approaches to support your combat.

Miyazaki: “Regarding the difficulty during event demos, honestly, I believe the issue was how used you are to the gameplay. I’ll say this again, but the game design requires a different sort of approach compared to Dark Souls. I’d like people to enjoy the process of learning Sekiro’s unique approach and slowly get better in the full game.”

I was completely unprepared for the fact that this is coming out for pc, and with no MP there's not even the unlikely possibility of running into ~hAckerZ~, which has gotta make the pc version the prettiest? I've got a launch ps4, so there's no way it'll do better than 30fps.

These are the issues

DS3 ran like absolute poo poo at launch (people wanted refunds) but the 1.1 patch made it so much better it felt like magic. I'm not sure about the other games but I always take it that FROM ports on PC suck until it don't.

I unlocked it on the Steam release and it was fine for me. :shrug:

The real annoying crap with From is that I have to unplug all my poo poo and just have a single controller or it won't recognize it. That's literally the only case.

Every From game runs fine on the PS4 for me (no, I didn't play BB at launch and did not experience the absurd load times) so I will continue playing on there and not having to fuss about anything. gently caress to PC gaming

So Sekiro is Game Informer's cover this month and they'll be doing a bunch of info dump. They played Hirata Estates, a "memory" level that is accessed via an item ala Bloodborne nightmares, and I'm probably going to avoid watching or reading too much beyond this point until release but a few things stood out to me which I will spoiler because we're in spoilertown as of now [69 DAYS!]

https://players.brightcove.net/694940074001/default_default/index.html?videoId=5986936885001&playsinline=true

the area boss is called Butterfly Hag, which is cool as hell

&

not only can you swim in this game, but you can "ninjadash" through water

&

Sekiro's hub area is called Dilapidated Temple more info about that

What are DS3's specs? The footage I've seen doesn't look like it's any more demanding than DS3, but the combat may be a bit faster.
