Not every third person combat game is a Souls-like. This looks great

[@panic_diver]

But it is though, has many elements of Sekiro, nioh 2, metal gear rising, instead of mikiri/burst counter, you have perfect dodge and block. Attack animations are flashy but the lock on and the flow of combat is very similar. Soulslike doesnt just mean like dark souls 1, its the whole locked on deliberate 3rd person action combat that fromsoft brought to industry, its the best type of melee action and implementing it and adding your own flavor is just building on the best type of melee combat. Cant wait for this one, Stellar Blade and now this, we need more of Sekiro inspired combat

[@leigoi1328]

FYI, the flail like weapon that last boss uses is called 血滴子 or Flying Guillotine, a legendary Chinese ranged weapon used during the reign of the Yongzheng Emperor in the Qing Dynasty. The weapon resembled a disc or flattened dome with a bladed rim and a chain or rope attached to the weapon's top, allowing it to be wielded as a bladed flail or thrown like a flying buzz saw. According to legend, the weapon's deadliest feature, and the source of it's English name, was its ability to decapitate a victim by being thrown on top of their head. Once landing, a pressure switch in the disk's underside would release the rim to fall over the head and encase it in a silken trap. A tug on the chain would then trigger concealed blades along the interior of the rim to swing out and cut through the neck. There is also evidence that the weapon may have been soaked in deadly poison before use, such that it can kill a person immediately when blood is drawn (literally "at the sight of a drip of blood"), which gives rise to its Chinese name 血滴子.

[@GamingCHILLz3000]

​@@Astreon123 there's only three combo sets in ff16 in terms of basic attacks: 1.) square, triangle, square, triangle, square, triangle 2.) square, square, square, triangle 3.) square, square, square, square The two combos ended with triangle finished with phoenix fire with push impact, and the most basic was all square combo was just all blade attacks. But you can do a combo as well with the powers of different Eikons too, by attacking opponents simultaneously using different powers with different Eikons equipped. Loved that game, it was 🔥🔥🔥!

[@Beamken]

Ff16 is very flashy but the combat lets me down a bit this seems like something true to form of a hack and slash

[@GamingCHILLz3000]

@@Beamken it lacks in combat variation in terms of basic attack movements, there's no way you can learn different combos in your basic attack. what makes it more fun was the use of Eikons powers. Aside from story, combat, hunts, there's no other interaction like doing something in the environment, like sort of activity, the map was huge but it makes you only feel wow by the looks of it, not by interacting with some of it as well.

[@vul4ak]

To anyone who's angry at Sekiro/soulslike comparisons: Like it or not - this is what happens when only one dev in the "prestige" space makes a certain type of game for a decade with nobody else to challenge them. People will compare with what they know best and what they know best is what they see the best. Don't expect every single gamer to be a gaming historian with 10+ years of active research into the medium and it's genres and subgenres. A lot of the people who say "This is like Sekiro" don't even know what Tenchu is, even though Sekiro started as a reboot of it, but ended up as Tenchu with a combat that was developed to have a better flow and that's fine. (To those who haven't played Tenchu: It's basically like Sekiro but with a mission structure, usually ending with a boss fight that you can either fight "honourably" or "cheat" with items) People compare with what's in on the now and the fact is - FromSoft have been dominating this sphere while other Japanese devs fell behind. Platinum haven't put out anything on the level of REvengeance in ages, even though they did the whole parry mechanic better than Sekiro (this isn't an argument) in terms of combat flow. Remember - there were times when every PS2 action game was called a "DMC clone" and every fixed camera angle horror game - a Resident Evil clone. It's just how things work. Yeah it pisses me off as well but it is what it is. So don't bother with anger, rather - support games that you like and don't bother with other stuff.

Rest point (fire camp), when you rest all enemies spawn back (except Boss once killed). The game loop is you need to go from point A to B with the limited ressources.
