[O³ (O cubed)]

It's been brought up a before but I really do appreciate how from jump Atsu is like "No, its fine, I an totally okay with the murdering, in fact thats why im here lmao"

Yeah but there's a cognitive dissonance. You murder and decapitate hundreds of people. Then you always let one live. I usually shoot the survivor in the neck as they runaway.

i'm a little salty normal parries dont work for this armor.

This armor reminds me of the monkey armor in iki island. The parry window is generous. Especially when you max it out.


I still haven't hunted any of the Yotei 6 yet.

Great opening I took care of the snake.

 

[UpNext]

I know I'm flabby when everything's lethal but timing windows are on easy lol. More games need to implement this kind of difficulty. Idc about training my twitchiness like that anymore but I do like the ultra aggressive enemies and if I get hit once I'm done

I was too but they don't even need to. Once you get the technique that allows for extra slashes after a perfect parry AND the charm that restores moderate health per perfect parry (that levels up btw), you're almost unstoppable

Yeah, its like the monkey armor from tsushima, its almost a bit OP

I’d hate to say this very cliche thing but this game really does feel like playstation BoTW for me. I’m just going anywhere and getting into shyt, i still haven’t played any of the story missions lol

Lol I was playing yesterday and really did think like "This is what a Zelda game could've looked like with advanced hardware..."
I also think of SOTC when on horseback.

Just learned the double katana technique. its so dope how they did that. Training like you Rocky lol

[Diondon]

So gorgeous

Yeah the way they used the bamboo cutting mini game to sort of translate the weakness in her left arm was cool.

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

I love the yari

 

[Doctor Doom]

They really went into their bag with the armor design.


I kind of wish the Taro Armor wasnt the defensive armor tho, hiding the straw cloak behind it

I was happy for that defense/extra health against the Oni on lethal

Otherwise I was getting one-shot

Spoiler: Unlockable Mask, no story spoilers

I haven't side quested this much in a while for a game

 

[YakSpiller]

Played for a couple hours before I turned the PS5 Pro Ray Tracing setting on

I’m still early in the game but I’m mad I didn’t play around with the settings. I just wanted to play the game
