Made this thread to see how everyone is finding the game while staying relatively spoiler free.
I'm hitting my head against the chained ogre still, and I think this combat system could potentially be my favorite one of all from soft games. My biggest worry though, is that with so much of success being correctly deflecting combos a lot of it turns into memorization based on gruelling trial and error. I also miss the classic dodge roll with it's crazy i-frames, but sekiro forces me to engage a lot more aggressively by taking out the one - size - fits - all defensive option
