As I decided to replay Sekiro this past month as I wait for Elden Ring's DLC, it still continues to amaze me how smooth and polished the combat Sekiro has. Now that Im playing SotE, with the bosses much more flashy with little windows for heals and attacks, all that is going through my mind is that, damn, I wish I can deflect these fuckin barrage of attacks.In Sekiro we have more options in how we approach and deal with enemies attacks; "Should I try for deflect?" "Should I just run away and wait for the flurry to finish?" "Should I heal on this attack?" "Just dash to the side?" "Use umbrella to deflect?" Yeah, it feels fairer given these various options. I mean, I still love Souls games, but Sekiro's just built diff. I wish they make more games similar to the combat feels Sekiro has.
