Let's Play All of Sekiro: The Hardest Rhythm Game

Buddha. Please comment with Buddha to help me pronounce it correctly, I am very sorry It's time to revisit Sekiro. I would never have picked this game up again if it hadnt won WWMii earlier this year. This is the hardest game I've ever played, and I hope everyone enjoys the highlights

@@RTGame Just so you know, there's an even better version of Owl, easily my single most favourite Fromsoft boss of them all. You just need to speedrun NG+ and betray Kuro now to unlock all the gauntlets, Inner Owl is in one of them. Trust me, NG+ is super easy in Sekiro since it's a rhythm game and you've already learned all the boss rhythms.

[@leithaziz2716]

The Owl fight rules, all 3 of them. I think the moment I found out I loved the boss was when I found out he had all the tools the player does but uses them against you. Mikiri Countering my own thrust attack was a moment of panic and catharsism. And the music in the Estate fight is a beautiful track.

And I thought it was just a bit neat

[@leithaziz2716]

It's a small touch, but it's one of those subtle details I really like. Both you and Sekiro are literally starting out of touch, and by the end you've both mastered the game to the point that Genichiro by the end is just a nuisance to get to Isshin.

@@honest_126 Sekiro is a game with heavy emphasis on the themes of Buddhism. Immortality leads to stagnation and as seen with the Headless Ape and Corrupted Monk's 3rd phase, you lose yourself in the desperation of trying to live forever. That's actually why the Purification ending is my favorite. Sekiro breaks his immortality and sacrifices himself so that Kuro can live a normal life of his own accord.

The sound design of this game's combat is some of the best in the genre. Up there with DMC's Royal Guard or Metal Gear Rising's Zandatsu. I think my favorite SFX is whenever lightning is involved, as well as the danger sound that pops up whenever the enemy is about to perform a Thrust. It's like a jumpscare but in the best ways.

Sekiro is such a beautiful game. Much like you, I played it in 2019, didn’t get far, then quit and came back years later. The game is HARD. You have to rewire your brain for it. It can take HOURS before the gameplay clicks. But everyone I’ve talked to who beat the game has agreed that at some point, and it’s different for everyone, something just… clicks. In the middle of battle, you’re floundering, your HP is dropping, your stamina is breaking, and then suddenly everything just… makes sense. In a moment, the beautiful rhythmic motions of parry, dodge, attack all come together. It can be hard to reach that point, lord knows it isn’t for everyone. But there is truly nothing like it once it clicks.

[@MrBibotot]

I've put this game down and picked it back up and I don't think anything really clicked until the owl fight. After that it's has become my favorite from soft game by far

[@HazeEmry]

Never played Sekiro but played a lot of fighting games. Once a character just clicks and you do things on instinct, nothing feels as good. And I've done m***!

[@My2Cents.iF7934]

It's what I like to call the Danse Macabre effect. If an action game has great/well-designed combat, there will eventually just come a point when the rhythm of the game will click with the player, and they will enter a perfectly timed Dance Of Death. It's what happened to me with most FromSoft bosses (especially with Elden Ring's main bosses), with the entirety of Sekiro, with Devil May Cry, and most recently with Lies Of P, which is why I praise that game so much: they mastered the Danse Macabre, which is something most other Souls copycats don't usually do. It's amazing.

[@AaronCorr]

After Genichiro the game felt entirely different. Before I just somehow scraped by but I had to fight properly to get past him

[@zaccazbaab1677]

I really like how some bosses in the video have 20 seconds of pure deflecting that are not edited out. I can see just how intense these fights are. Thank you editor!

[@zaccazbaab1677]

Also the in the momento section the music isn’t cut out.Really like the flow of that section in the video.

[@Darkfyyre]

if you have the time for it, i strongly recommend checking out the vods, even if it's just to skip to the boss fights, because watching the full progression from floundering over and over, to complete mastery of the boss fight, is so rewarding. if you have time to watch only one of these fights, make it Inner Owl (the Owl fight in the burning building); the way he went from getting absolutely dominated, to dominating the fight, is the most satisfying thing i've ever seen. you can see the moment that it clicks for him, and suddenly he's deflecting every blow, dodging at the precise right moment in the correct direction, and attacking relentlessly without fear or hesitation. aside from how enjoyable just watching it is, i personally love hearing him verbalize his thoughts on what he's doing wrong, what he should be trying next, and generally talking aloud his process as he learns the fight, bit by bit, and that tends to get cut from the vids (understandably, the edited video has to condense a LOT and must focus on the most pivotal moments). anyway, just a recommendation! and considering these fights can take an hour or longer, i'd understand if you don't really have the time or inclination, but i figured if you enjoyed the drawn out parts from the edited down video, you might also enjoy the uncut version of the fights, too!

[@lucienmoolman8017]

I remember fighting the spear miniboss in Hirata estate without mikiri counter... it was genuine torture and most bosses doesn't compare to the amount of anguish that man caused me

I quit at ape as well. It was watching TheStrawhatNo group's playthrough that got me to try again, in a "if this guy can do it then I sure as heck can, too" way. It also helps that a year and a half away from the game helped me let go of all the "souls-isms" that were holding me back, like thinking I'd only be able to block two ape swings before getting guard broken. No, the ape can be fought exactly like every other enemy: stand in front of it and deflect.

[@acousticllama4135]

Fun Fact: Owl invented the Mikiri Counter so trying to use a thrust attack on him would understandably end in your loss. Good attention to detail. I love it. Fun Fact #2: The two massive apes you fight, the male gaurdian and the female brown, are actually mates. The gaurdian was infested and lost his sanity, but the female didn't want to leave him. If you kill the gaurdian first, the female gives up on life. Fun Fact #3: The Rejuvinating Waters grant immortality but it also corrupts the being who ingests it. The monks of Senpou Temple turned away from the teachings of Buddha and was seduced by the waters. These waters also caused the immortal centipedes to sprout, furthering the corruption. Fun Fact #4: The Old Dragons of the Tree symbolize Dragonrot and the unnatural use of ressurection. The first few are white beings but then they become old and withered. Much like how dragonrot spreads as more of the power is abused. Sad Fact: Considering the fact that you buy Robert's firecrackers from a Memorial Mob, people who pillage the dead for offerings, means that Robert is dead by the time Sekiro meets the Armored Warrior. This means that the Father is now chasing for the final hope to bring back his dead son, who has died of sickness.

[@EE-one-D]

I'm not completely sure, but I believe armored warrior doesn't know about Robert's death. Robert was used by the monks for experimentation with immortality (he was one of the divine children) under the guise of extending his life, in return the armored warrior defends the temple. By keeping him under the impression Robert is still alive, the monks make sure he keeps protecting their temple.

Shameful to admit, since I have tried and enjoyed almost every other title they have made since Demons Souls, beating every other Soulsborne game except for this (and Demons, but that may be remedied soon). Just couldn't get into the combat, felt so different from their other titles and I had to walk away. So happy to experience this grand game second-hand.

[@davidgeorge1943]

1:17:44 gets asked to play the Mementos theme, instead plays Price like a legend.

[@asarteawiki3802]

Good on you for coming back and beating it

[@ChellSky]

RT's absolute dedication to not save kuro until he absolutely has to is fucking hilarious

[@HardOakWood]

Love you Dan, you always make my day

[@memeweirdguyn.0019]

RT plays Sekiro Pros: He just needs to master one weapon and choose which tool he will mainly use RT plays Sekiro cons: *There are no summonable gang of ghost to help him, just messages to either troll him or attempt make his travels slightly more bearable*

[@peculiarpangolin4638]

Lovely timing; I just beat Inner Ishin for the first time today, so it's really nice to revisit the road to learning this wonderful game. I was thoroughly entertained the whole way through, Dan! Lovely show!

[@FabioDaFemboy]

I recently 100%-ed Sekiro after quitting on the Blazing Bull for 8 months. And I am so glad I came back to it! This game is a masterpiece. It's my all time favorite game!

[@Noel-wc7mb]

Buddha. Awesome to see you tackle it. Can't wait to watch you crush the endings and final bosses. Love Isshin so much

[@MrL0WEL]

As someone with ophidiophobia (the snake one), going through the big snake sneaking level was definitely the most difficult thing I’ve ever had to do in a video game. Had to call a cousin over for moral support.

[@chrisohear3887]

RT you did amazing! Sekiro is one of my favourite games and you did so well

[@blockobama9005]

When I first played this game I was dog crap and I couldn’t defeat the spear mini boss or the shield bandits and now I beaten the game like 3 times in both endings and all curses active with no cheesing the bosses.

[@ShenZxro]

Never thought he’d go back to this, now he truly can be the gamer of all time. You love to see it

[@butterkirby1]

I literally just picked up sekiro again after years and RT finally plays it. We live in a simulation.

[@graysondowd4239]

Good on Dan to be able to come back to this game after all this time to beat it. I myself havent been able to get past Owl since i got the game 3 years ago

[@joeywatkins5452]

The owl fight at hiratta took me 3 days to beat. It's was one of the most fun times i have ever had in a video game.

[@leithaziz2716]

Father/Inner Owl and SS Isshin are up there with some of the best bosses in the last decade.

[@remitsu9715]

the best thing that happened today was seeing RT upload a 2 and a half hour video thanks :D

[@Sm0k3turt]

I remember when I beat Isshin the Sword Saint the first time, I literally stood up and started crying. To this day I am so proud to have beaten this game. You should be too. My personal favorite from soft game just because of the fucking mountain this game is to climb. Well done sir.

[@Creepernom]

My heart was pounding so fast when I finally beat him. I struggled against him for days upon days until I finally mastered it all and killed him. That was an absolutely incredible moment and one of the most satisfying victories I've ever had in games. Beating Sekiro is absolutely something to be proud of. You can't beat it with just some cheese strategy or by overleveling. You actually have to master combat to finish it.

[@martefala]

i cant stress enough how much the fight against owl (father) was epic. RT you were amazing and i was hyping up like a football team or something lmao. As always amazing editing and an amazing playthrough.

[@ciaranpatrick6859]

That owl father fight was beautiful to watch

[@PinkOddish]

It was certainly very interesting seeing RT transition from playing it like Dark Souls to picking up the flow of fighting, that second Owl fight especially

[@minnijawsx9060]

Every time he pronounces Buddha like butta a piece of my soul dies

[@aithon358]

I'm so glad I finally get to see you play my favorite game!

[@steamtasticvagabond474]

58:32 HE MADE THE NOISE

[@codexpopzx2860]

Yes finally greatness is back

[@Snnoy]

The only player to ever drift with a sword

[@tekkorb778]

33:00 even though Dan read the firwork lore and told himself to remember Robert, he didn't react to Robert's dad at all

[@shadowfire04]

one of my favorite details about the owl fight is that the spirit owl he summons is _very intentionally_ flying in front of your camera. just another bit of underhanded dealing from The Shinobi

[@timothymenard1750]

I'm glad RT gave Sekiro another go, It's my personal favourite of the Soulsborne games and it's great that he seemed to have fun.

[@rowgesage936]

sekiro is still my all time favorite game. Nothing quite scratches the same itch as the fights in this game. And unlike the other souls game, there is not a single part / section of this game i don't enjoy

[@DrF3lix]

8:18 What an in-tents fight that was.

[@NinjaMaster-og8ti]

Truely the Rhythm King. Pretty sure RTgame now has the skills to tackle Lies of P.

[@connorgalloway1804]

I’ve been waiting for this for so long

[@VonSergei]

love ya rt, dog got cancer and hes getting put to sleep this weekend and you are taking my mind off of things!

[@theFreddyFighter]

Daniel can now add Shinobi master to his CV now
