I went to the forest, found the path to the clinic and had an epic fight with isolda. I'll return to the forest next because there's a cannon down there apparently

Got the forbidden woods nailed now I'm stuck with Spiderman, he's/she's an ass. Got me a +6 sparky club but I'm not doing as much damage as I'd expect. The ice comets are doing my head in

At one end of the hypo gaol there's the sparky club and at the other is a massive gate, does this ever open?

There's also a lift behind and above the tunnel piggy. This won't operate

I was replaying DS3 when I heard the familiar tingle of a crystal lizard. I searched high and low in the general area above the Firelink Shrine having to climb ladders and stairs. I even returned to the bonfire to reset enemies in case it had fallen into the wall. I just couldn't find it any where and gave up.
It was only after I turned off the game and I could still hear it that I realised the next door neighbours have gotten wind chimes. :|

I'm at the end now, I'm in the garden fighting gherman. It's a ridiculous fight, so unfair! It's like he fights with lead elixir not slowing him down, he teleports, and he attacks when he should be stunned. Rifle spear is the only weapon that I can hurt him with substantially. Short weapons let him punch through my attacks and longer weapons are ok but he's so fast. Molotov bounce off him
How did you bring him down? Can he be poisoned?
Also, does insight carry over into NG?

I can't remember how I beat him, but I remember being disappointed that I beat him on my second or third go. :dunno:

All the reports I'm reading from people who've played Sekiro say that this game is like a new language from the other Soulsborne games. That they were going in with that Souls confidence you get when you've played it enough only to have their asses handed to them because it is mechanically different.

This excites me the most because I really miss that feeling you get when you first play a Souls game and you're almost scared to venture out into the world and you're hiding behind your shield. Hopefully this will make me experience this again.

So much hype!





I've been reading from Soulsborne players that this game was kicking their arse because they couldn't get Souls combat out of their heads and have had to re-learn. \[T]/

They're happy they're going to be challenged all over again. Dark Souls was starting to get easy.

Sekiro killing it in the reviews. Many calling it as much a successor to Tenchu as Dark Souls. Two of my favourite games ever! \[T]/
