However, some players find the game's difficulty challenging, citing a steep learning curve and demanding boss fights as potential drawbacks. A few also mentioned frame rate inconsistencies. Overall, the positive feedback on the core gameplay mechanics outweighs the concerns regarding difficulty.

    At first it’s intimidating because it’s not your typical hack n slash or button mashing game. Skills, blocking, patience, and dodging are all vital to surviving in the game. First boss was hard because I tried to rush through him. After an few tries I changed my strategy, slowed down, blocked a lot. Now I’m hooked. I can’t put it down.

    Excellent game, must play IMO. This game is not forgiving, but once you get the hang of the mechanics it is so much fun. Atmosphere is incredible as always!

    Much better than the souls games in my opinion, the combat is very fast and smooth. Be warned this game is very tough, time, patience and commitment are a requirement for this style of game, if you commit to this though i think you'll find as I have that this is one of the gems of this generation. By the way my nephew who doesn't generally play thos style of game wanted a copy of his own for his birthday after he saw me playing my copy. Just put that out there because I think it speaks to rhe quality of the game.

    Graphics are great, and maybe I am scarred by coming from playing the Witcher 3 (phenomenal game). Control feel just seems lacking to me. I want a game that it is easy to control your character and smooth, this wasn’t the game for that.

    Sekiro is a game that puts the average gamer to the test. Players will have to learn accurate timing and effective combos to beat foes. It’s lots of fun for gamers who are tired of easy to beat short games.

    Great dark souls like game nm ug in the samurai era. Very punishing. If you die, you lose half your money and souls earned. Bosses require strategy / puzzle during fights and can 1 to 2 shot you. Love this game for its challenge. If you like challenging games this is for you. Good story with free roam and a few secret bosses and good replay value.

    One of the best games I've ever played. Platinum'd it and beat it 5 times. You must be patient and willing to learn. Once the combat clicks, it's literally addicting.

    then this is the game for you. You will struggle and suffer through several points in this game. But once you finally achieve each milestone, the sense of pride and accomplishment is astronomical. 10/10 would recommend.

    Sekiro is brutally challenging but fair and rewarding. Perseverance is needed to make it through this game, but this is an excellent game. If you need a game to test your skills, this game is definitely it.

    If you like other Fromsoft games then buy it. Very challenging at first but very rewarding. I’m at the end of my third playthrough with platinum trophy on ps4. Very addicting game once you learn the game/boss mechanics.

    The combat system is fantastic and innovative, hellishly difficult, but its humiliation and battle are incredibly fulfilling. Sekiro looks great, moves great, and the design environment and levels are phenomenal.

    If you are familiar with the Dark Souls games in blood-borne imagine a game set in feudal Japan with a lot of the same premises by faster and more unique combat system. If you desire a challenge this is singing pretty.

    This game has a steep learning curve, but once you get used to it, it is a lot of fun. It shares its similarities with the Dark Souls games and bloodborne, but the combat is somewhat different. Would def reccomend!!!

    The game evolves throughout the missions and makes you try different combat tactics. Few big boss fights are tough and challenging which make the game more fun. Must play and highly recommended for every gammer.

    Absolutely great game! Tough as nails, but such tight controls, and what a unique world to explore. Each enemy is like a mini boss/you need to figure out how to best approach. Very Hard, but Very Satisfying. :)

    This game features stunning visuals, and precise and punishing combat. It's a FROM Software game, so expect to die, and die again, while you learn the pathway through this enemy laden mountain landscape of Sengoku Japan. It's an awesome game . . . the combat is really challenging, like really, really challenging to master. The RPG elements are unique and not like the other FROM games. It big part of the experience is grappling parkour and stealth. It might be the perfect game.
