Pro tip: clearing the prologue will earn you a trophy. Also, you can attack by pressing buttons. Use this to kill enemies.

[@Stewer1000]

thanks for ths now am better at game

[@garrygoertzen739]

Thank you... but maybe trophies and tips should be kept separate

[@SyphonGaming]

True...

[@SuperMentalkids]

Especially when we’ve already unlocked them

[@divymathur4163]

Yep i agree

[@bruceleeds7988]

The vid is only 5mins long as it is guys!

[@preiselbeerpie4555]

I don't think so because the Game is made to get all of the trophies too, it's part of it.

[@chadcybercock3915]

In the Museum, when dealing with the two martial artists, fighting them head on is never a good idea; dealing with one of them is hard enough as it is. Instead, unlock the environment mastery skill, go near the glass light bulbs or whatever and start yeeting them. They will not even get close to you and you have more than enough of them to knock out both of the enemies.

[@GamingInstincts]

Noted!

[@kennethanderson8985]

Im the museum. There's lots of knives. So when come head up with two fighters. U can stab one in the belly like a one hit kill. Then fight the other one head up. The game do have a little strategy. So u don't make it so hard for yourself lol.

[@apostateCourier]

@@kennethanderson8985 You do this by stunning them (eye strike is an easy solution) then doing a fully charged backfist input with a knife in hand. Instant kill, uses up the knife.

[@jackkawf4449]

Exactly! I go to that center piece and start chucking bulbs

[@calebtheholyman545]

Yeah if you dont wanna spend skill points on the environmental skill, just grab a sword, hold triangle, and release right as they startup their lunging palm strikes

[@Taima]

Better tip for 3:10 with the big dudes. Those two little panel walls sticking out on either side can be broken and will drop a bat style melee weapon for you to beat the brakes off those clowns with

[@OzzyBen07]

PROTIP how to know when an enemy is gonna go super saiyan if you try a takedown, look at their life bar, if it has a yellow flaming aura DON'T try to use a takedown. Just use normal attacks and they won't power up.

[@3LANCER]

Don't attack dude in red trunks at the club. Answer him with anything but "fight me" and you can skipp that whole fight completely.

[@SyphonGaming]

How come you wouldn't want to fight him tho?

[@Zxoshi]

Bruh this is a life saver. Dude took like 20 years off my life when I first fought him😂

[@ArkhamEditz_aep]

You can skip it with a shortcut door after the fight on the dance floor with the women(the door is on the right, but you will have to open it once from the other side to unlocke the short cut)

[@kufudokungfu]

Really

[@jaysanj152]

This is super useful for speed running that section but that section is also great for getting the most score out of that level on 5x multiplier. it's basically risk vs reward and there is a shine literally next to the roller-skate girl Tip :- Take the roller-skate girl first...

[@MrGillie12]

Ok so at the club there's a mini boss with red trunks and bandages... If you use a talk option and spam triangle on him he will become locked in a blocked animation and won't attack you back... Spam him with attacks until his structure gauge is full then finish him off. I think it's a genuine glitch in the game.

[@tajtajima]

Parry and blocking are two separate things, if you just 'hold L1' as you said on the video you won't parry anything, just block.

[@hitzkooler15]

How do you parry?

[@rootz420]

@@hitzkooler15 gotta be a god of reflexes.

[@tajtajima]

@@hitzkooler15 You have to tap L1 at the exact moment the hit lands, that's why holding the button won't parry. In a flurry of attacks, you have to keep tapping and releasing, just like in most games with a parry mechanic.

[@mkv2718]

@@rootz420 no, just practice. Use the practice dummy in your apartment when starting out and turn the ai on to “aggressive.” Then it’s just learning the timing.

[@blakewalton929]

@@rootz420 it’s not that hard, chill 😂

[@mysteryneophyte]

my very first time playing my very first game of this by the time I made it to the second place in that club fighting I was 70years old lol. I've gotten progressively better and pretty quickly , it was incrementally but fast, at least I feel like it was. This game is pretty freaking fun though.

[@rootz420]

You can farm the first level for xp to permanent unlock the perks. This game is so hard.

[@lujoviste]

How bro? When i go back to the lvl it says all skills will be reseted

[@rootz420]

@@lujoviste if you buy the skill 6 times you permanent unlock it.

[@lujoviste]

@@rootz420 yeah but i cant get all the xp in one level tho? When i finish lvl no deaths i can buy ir maybe 3 times. If i restart i just lose it

[@rootz420]

@@lujoviste the more you play the better you get at the better xp you get you Gona have to run through the level over and. Over slowly getting it rewards you the better you get parry is your freind practise I played for 9 hours it's game fighting system is basic but preety deep as well

[@vishnuravi8910]

for 3:41 you don't even need to fight anybody there, you can get the shrine and leave. You get dialogue that says that u have 3 trials in front of u.

[@bruceleeds7988]

I just learned that yesterday.

[@ArkhamEditz_aep]

In the museum you can skip the entire level and go straight to the boss fight if you use the elevator after defeating the two guards at the start(the elevator is inside the waterfall) But I would not do that as the level design is way to beautiful to be skipped 😂

[@harshdeepsingh9278]

Nah dude it's locked, you need to climb till 4th floor i think to get its key

[@ArkhamEditz_aep]

@@harshdeepsingh9278 yeah but after that you can do it every time and don't have to go through the level again

[@bruceleeds7988]

A better tip for 15: go to the same guy at the door and allow him to speak to you about the trials. Respond with any answer except "fight me" and you will be able to pass through the door without having to fight anyone, as they are too busy training.

[@Wraith8082]

A good tip to keep in mind (especially for the club) is to remember you have more room than you think There are a lot of rooms that feel tight and closed off but make sure you use the R2 dodge to avoid being crowded in, also you are sometimes able to backtrack into previous rooms entirely to help space out the enemies further

[@isaiahadams1208]

Ok. I’ll be sure to use some of these tips for when I play it

Your pro bro!

[@Jet_Set_Go]

In addition to 13, break the paper curtains on the sides of the big guys to get a wooden stick, so you can speed up the takedown of both guys.

[@GamingInstincts]

Good call!

[@ParthyFrez]

Im already using some of these 😉👍

[@ZHunt-sj1lf]

This dudes tips are just "pick up the weapons"

[@GamingInstincts]

You having a bad day little Timmy? :)

[@Jart-qe3om]

This guy is literal 🗑

[@bryancastillo5045]

🎉this video helped alot

[@ArkhamEditz_aep]

In the Club you can find a shortcut door after the fight on the dance floor to skip nearly half of the level (the door is to the right and you have to open it from the other side first)

[@Karl_Drogo55]

is that reccomended tho for first time play through? dont i want more xp?

[@ikelowry]

You don’t even have to open the other side it’s literally open right after the first fight, I recommend you grind and upgrade your weapon damage for the bosses

[@ikelowry]

@@Karl_Drogo55 nah, it’s not. Grind the whole level it’s mad fun

[@PowerNapMan]

For the remapping of controls: I could not do the ground attacks after changing the controls - any tipps for that? (It’s hold circle in default)

[@rainman4525]

Me neither

[@PowerNapMan]

Okay, got it after trying some stuff: It’s not possible if the assigned button also has a "holding" function (i.e dodging, because it’s also running). Other moves are fine, even if it’s the same button :)

[@kennethanderson8985]

I play the game. And want all of u to keep in mind. If u skip fights. U won't be able to upgrade your skills and skill tree. Every fight counts to pay for your upgrades. And u must win. Or u will lose all hope. Or less u unlock your skills permanently.

[@Karl_Drogo55]

thank u;...i was just asking that in another comment..like wouldnt I want to not skip as much as possible for my first play through? I figured id want the xp

[@SuperKratosgamer]

3:45 you dont really have to fight him.

[@Gajbotron]

Game Intro/Tutorial part (red screen) was inspired by..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6DJk6SYe999eJI

Thank you

[@garnetnelson1419]

This guy must go around stating the obvious for attention when he walks down the street. “My feet are carrying me from one place to another, and I’m standing on my feet while standing on my feet”

[@mainiovoittamaton3075]

In many levels someone will ask you something. Answer it and you may skip a fight. Like in the club that dude in the door telling about trials will not fight you if you answer(Execpt the "fight me"). And in the tower you don't need to fight those dudes at the start.👍🏻💪🏻

[@Byrenious]

For number 15, you can also just not fight them

[@nicholasnajibi3082]

Don’t ever use weapons do not rely on them. You must stick to your martial arts and your skill based timing as to not be reliant because boss encounters make weapons useless. Practice with martial arts on the stages until you reach a boss then you’ll be “warm” for the encounter

[@nintense5317]

this is more like a trophy guide lol.

[@GamingInstincts]

There is only 2 or 3 tips here out of 20 that are related to trophies. Come on now.

[@adilabdumannapov2801]

At 3:50 when you fighting against two heavy kungfu fighters I will come with a knife and hold the triangle (heavy attack) button while one of them runs towards me, to hit. Right before his/her first panch I release my triangle button so the player will pinch the knife straight to the heart. One hit, one kill!!! Then deal with the second. (With this trick you can kill most of the mini-bosses, big guys with one hit)

[@ScottBot726]

Good stuff! But this is more of a strategy guide. Maybe put up a spoiler warning for those who don’t want to know what (and how) they’ll face at each level?

[@GamingInstincts]

Noted.

[@divymathur4163]

Could anyone tell me how to dodge the blade/machete attacks? They seem to always hit me somehow. Even when i try to parry them

[@AS_Ekko]

one of the hardest games I ever touched my hands on ❤

[@UponDemise666]

I suck at this game, but I can’t put it down, lol. I’m 22 at the club & just can’t climb that “wall”... I’ve beaten all FromSoftware’s Soulsborne series (including Sekiro)... but I always get my ass handed to me by that 2nd boss... Update: I’m currently 31 & on Level 3

[@Ihateganondorf]

there's a really good video on beating Sean. Basically it comes down to getting the avoid mechanic down, parrying sucks.

[@UponDemise666]

@@Ihateganondorf Thanks! So rn I’m currently 31 & actually on Level 3!! I have the 1st security key as well as the elevator key/shortcut & am currently @ the boss- her 1st form is way harder than the 2nd one (as long as you have “weapon catch” that is).

[@cyclode9584]

having a hard time even at the club

[@spliffyrodgers4266]

2:57 smash the wooden panels and you can get a stick makes really easy work of big guys

[@mattlastname5384]

what do you do when a guy is blocking constantly and you cant attack and then they spam you with attacks and you cant block or anything?

[@GamingInstincts]

You need to parry dodge their last attack which will make them lose time and that's when you strike and they do not block.

[@kufudokungfu]

Trty sweep

[@crimsonsamurai887]

There are 2 types of normal enemies you have to remember The first are the weak enemies: they can be easily killed with 3 heavy attacks The second is strong enemies: these enemies have a longer structure and health And also i do no recommend using a finisher on them or they will definitely counter it and Become full health again

[@einsp227]

No shit, is that why the regain health because you try to do the finisher on them?

[@MIKUIEL]

@@einsp227 yeah they get buffed but there can only be one buffed enemy at a time so everyone else that has a take down button on them is fair game

[@fallentomatoes9378]

Yeah but sometimes I purposely trigger them because defeating them reduces your death counter

Parrying is pushing the L1 button right before the attack and blocking us just holding it down. Git Gud. Also, you don’t have to fight any of the guys in the training room if you don’t want to.
