Sekiro - Elden Isshin, the King of Shapes

[@BandicootPWR]

Thanks for playing! 😃 Two little developer tidbits: 1. The Radahn meteor is actually a 'wooo' guy, invisible and covered in a fire trail swooping from the sky. 2. Try using Radahn's Comet against him in Phase 2/3 and see what happens 👀. There is still more work to be done on Mr. Isshin, but overall I wanted to give the fight a more cinematic feel and hoped the ending would catch people off guard. A little late, but Happy New Year! 🥳 Here's to more Sekiro mods in 2023 🥂😎

[@_ONGBAL]

👍 I can't wait to see your fully finished version :)

[@poopybuttguy5523]

It definitely caught me offguard. I absolutely love how old Isshin’s soul is watching the fight from up top as his body remains below

[@MasterObservato]

I don't know if this was intentional, but the meteor seems to come down a little too fast. Is it possible to put an extra second or 2 delay before it comes down?

[@Zenitchik_130]

Probably won't ever bit this Isshin myself, but keep it up, such a nice work!

[@mattpweston]

[@nicolasgragert8581]

In a way yes, I’m actually currently stuck on elden Isshin but I have beatin elden genichiro on my ng+ 5 no charm & demon bell. A lot of getting familiar with some attack patterns but the bosses do them randomly & if you’re not good on your parries you die. Genichiro beat the hell out of me & only beating him once but you also get two cool item drops from him so I wonder if Isshin does the same

[@DreadPyke]

The Radahn OST chant on loop for the final phase made it glorious!

It's kinda sad that almost nobody gets to hear that part in radahn's fight because most people kill him before that part comes

[@thomasmott3518]

Imagine one day, either a new From Software game or DLC is released. You slog through all the hardest bosses and are given a chance to face one last opponent, maybe the last From boss ever. You enter a simple arena and then the health bar appears, simply titled: Ongbal.

[@dougdynamo9398]

Ongbal has practically played and conquered Sekiro 2. If this game somehow gets a sequel, I can't imagine what From would have to do to surprise this man.

[@prabh4489]

I'm thinking they saw his videos when designing the DLC and scrapped it because it was too easy

[@alyosha2220]

I love the crazy, mythological bosses in Dark Souls and Elden Ring, but there's something about this old man that keeps making me go back to the game.

[@HarshManohar]

I have never felt any emotions for any dark souls/elden ring bosses. Shit, most of them are just random monsters you have to kill with no idea why. Isshin, Genichiro, Owl and Emma, these battles had so many emotions behind them. I know exactly why I am fighting them and what is at stake. I still don't know what was the point of elden ring and I have finished the game and watched the Vaati videos. Sekiro is the best game Fromsoft has created.

[@nomanssouls1957]

But bloodborne bosses are better than sekiro's, sorry to mind you :, (

[@nomanssouls1957]

Harsh Manohar, no bloodborne has the best bosses. That game is the best fromsoft game.

[@HarshManohar]

@@nomanssouls1957 I haven't played that game so can't disagree, maybe it is. I have only heard great things about Bloodborne.

[@phillemon7664]

@@HarshManoharI get similar emotions behind fights in Bloodborne such as the three final bosses and a variety of other “checkpoint” or “milestone” bosses but Sekiro is definitely GOATed

[@rockstar-made]

Someone get Sekiro modders an artist who can make 3D models so they can give these insane movesets their own more fitting character model

[@sethgaston8347]

Agreed, or so they can improve the Elden Ring character models, or mod in actual combos for Elden Ring or a turbo mode with faster attacks and more stamina

[@MrCompassionate01]

It's tricky, by the time you've learned how to make game-ready models as good as From Soft's you may as well just go get a good job. They could maybe find somebody who wants to build a nice portfolio though.

[@rockstar-made]

@@MrCompassionate01 Of course, as an artist myself i'm aware of the difficulty and hassle of creating something of that quality(although what i had in mind was mostly model editing, not making something purely from scratch, that's too much) but there are talented artists who are part of passion projects in the community like Archthrones and it'd be awesome if one day a group got together and made something like that for Sekiro, the movesets deserve the love.

[@MacaroniArsheri]

Ahh, my geometry teacher, our fight will be legendary

[@one01001]

This fight is just absolutely gorgeous. I'm tired of telling my friends that (vanilla) sekiro feels like you're in an actual anime fighting but these mods just take it to a whole new level.

[@fancyman4563]

Its actually a rhythm game

[@raijinoflimgrave8708]

​@FancyMan456 what does that have to do with his comment

[@TheRealNirox]

these mods are insane !! love to have such an amazing community 😃✌

[@nigrum_angelum6655]

I really love, despite all the crazy Elden Arts demonstrated, not once has Isshin performed some super aggressive unhinged multi-hit combo like too many Sekiro mods do. I also dig the part where they tried incorporating cinematic-esque sequence of being lifted in the air and you have to deflect the incoming attacks. I'd assume the idea here was inspired by the Divine Dragon blowing you to the air during the last Lightning Reversal of the fight, so I hope the modder can create the necessary animation for being lifted to the air and falling down instead of having the game fade to black. It also reminds me of those kinda QTE-esque sequence of slashing your enemies in slow motion in MGR: Revengeance, which was probably one of, if not the only, instance of QTE done right. My only gripe was an instance of the camera lock breaking in phase 1, and also how in phase 2 he spammed the Owl -> Genichiro moves kinda making the fight predictable. Cheers, Ongbal, and the modders as well 🥂

[@johnpetrila4823]

Amazing fight as always, and the second and third phases had a lot of neat surprises in them! Also want to give the mod creator kudos for that surprising and unexpectedly poignant ending; it just feels spiritual and solemn in a way the original SSI fight isn't.

[@heinkelion]

[@misterteddylong]

I like the fact, that this boss (modded) bossfight takes its time and doesnt spam attack after attack and all you have to do is simply parry. Wish, Elden Ring would have taken this route, because lategame bosses just throw stuff after stuff. It is definitely more enjoyable, when even the boss has to take his time and launch an attack. Great Video as always.

[@underbuu]

@@Cabbywabbytabby damn I totally forgot about Skyrim lol but yea Skyrim and modding is pretty much a given, the dev themselves hire ex-modders to be employees lol. The thing with Sekiro that differs from Skyrim imo is that we don't really have room for variety aside from a few movesets (if you compare it to Skyrim where everything can be built from the ground up) and yet people can come up with loads of stuff that would literally be the equivalent of a DLC content-wise. I'm not a modder so I'm not trying to undermine the hard work of any of the modders, just stating my obviously biased opinion lol

[@abdalla8558]

In vanilla sekiro, at the start 2nd phase, when he pulls out the spear, he does a sweep, it is actually parryable. Found out by coincidence 😂

This is the craziest shit that I have seen from the most passionate modding community of the FromSoft games. You know this has definitely caught the eyes of the developers and they're going to be using this as inspiration for the sequel/prequel. Yes, we will be getting another Sekiro installment, not because it's been officially announced, but because the love for this title is too strong. I'm calling it. The next IP they will be working on after Armored Core, is a Sekiro sequel or prequel that explores the origin story of Kingfisher, Lady Tomoe, Lady Butterfly, and the Sculptor, who will be the player character. Calling it now. Keep rocking on FromSoft.
