It would be such a massive L if Miyazaki never makes sekiro 2

I'm not sure if I want a sequel. As it stands, it can stay as an amazing one off. Sekiro was an incredible game, with a creative and addicting gameplay, unlike anything in the market. It pulled no punches when it comes to challenge, and I think that it what makes it so fucking good. You either learn and adapt, or you go home and be a family man.

tfw you have to be a family man and beat sekiro at the same time.

Can't say the same with Sekiro because from my experience, the story came to a complete closure.

Actually one of the endings Sekiro with Divine Child goes to west in order return the Dragon, it has great potential for sequel with different setting.
 
I love Sekiro for the most part, but it really goes down in quality to a significant degree in the last 30% or so of the game (outside of Fountainhead Palace). It's just repeated environments and repeated bosses.


In addition, I'll whine about this with every Miyazaki game: the sidequests are utter shit, and I don't believe anyone who claims that they figured out how to get the best ending on their own.



Side note: I admire anyone who beat Demon of Hatred without cheesing it. Couldn't be me.

I platinum Sekiro and I fought him multiples times I don't even know method cheesing him, I just straight up fought him. His not that hard, he leaves himself lot of room for you consistency attack him and you can use finger whistle to stun him 3 times.

In fact I would say I found ludwig in Bloodborne much harder than Demon of Hatred.

My question is, what's the definition of cheesing him? Does using the fire upgraded loaded umbrella count as cheesing? Because that's how I always beat him.
 
Meh. I'd be day 1 if they made a sequel as I did love the game, but at the same time not really hopping for it. BB, DS3 and DS1 were all better FROM projects

I honestly don't know but I didn't even use that, you can easily get away from his big fire jump attack and use your grappling hook get back to him.

Idk I just decided after a couple of attempts that I have no patience for this boss 😂

You can trick him into killing himself by falling
 
Also I want a Lost Kingdoms reboot/Lost Kingdoms III.

Y'all don't even knowwww. How fun Lost Kingdoms II is. It's easier than the usual FROM game (and also way shorter), but it's so fun, with so many customization options, lots of optional content, and that same wonderful FROM atmosphere.


I'd also like for them to one day try a more "traditional" JRPG (doesn't have to be turn based though) again.
 
It'd all depend on what the sequel would be IMO. But with the way the game wrapped, I wouldn't expect such a thing. But I'll be honest, if it came, and was still as good as the first if not better, I wouldn't mind one bit, lol.

I like this boss and had fun fighting him and I had fun time fighting him and like if listen to all Sculptor story when offer him sake, Sekiro will recognize him when he turn to Demon if Hatred.

I don't see the point "cheesing" boss fight. I'm playing the game to had fun not just "get through it".

Ok your last sentence was completely unnecessary, and it's an example of why I don't buy your passive-aggressive "nice" shtick. Don't judge me for how I play a video game lol.

I decided that the boss fight will not be enjoyable for me to learn and get through, so I cheesed it, because I wanted to get the extra Attack point. That doesn't mean I don't play video games to have fun.

Sorry if offended you I mostly talking about my own taste and opinion, that boss is optional fight if I wasn't having fun I would have just skipped the fight all together.

Edit: my tag is sarcastic…

There's a cheese where you can make him run out of the arena and die.

I beat him fair and square, but only once. I've done all the other bosses countless times.
 
He won't make another one. This is a one and done deal. It's over... i would love another one trust me. BUT Sekiro is not a moneymaker sadly... too many whiny geeks hated it because no rpg elements...

Also Miya can't take an L it's impossible!
 
I dunno I think it was good a was one off. That combat was good on a first playthrough but I think it could get old for a second game without it getting reworked.

The parry mechanic as it is basically only works with one on one fights.
 
Sekiro and Bloodborne are two of the best games ever made, without a doubt. And they stand fine just on their own. That said, I'd definitely take a sequel/spiritual sequel to both of them.
 
I fine with the direction their currently going, new IP

That doesn't mean we won't get a Japanese themed game, If they could somehow improve upon Elden Ring, take the success of Sekiro's combat, combine it into a new IP, it would be even better

However if they ever decide to make a Sekiro 2, the game need huge improvement over the first one in order to sell, consider how expectation of gamer in general is getting higher

It was so hard going back to the Dark Souls combat in Elden Ring after playing Sekiro. The gameplay in Sekiro is legendary. I hope they revisit that style in another game at some point.

Bloodborne is an exception. Demon's Souls got a whole remake and people love it, what are you talking about?

Demon Souls is a PS3 title remade for the PS5 and the original isn't playable on PS4/PS5. Bloodborne is a much newer title and still playable on current hardware. Remaking it so soon would be a waste. What are you talking about?

Yeah, there's never been a sequel to a game/movie where the story seemingly came to an end.

Yeah but some stories are just better as a one and done. FROM is one of the most creative studios in gaming history. Give me new stories, new lores and new world building. I rather they use their resources on something new even though apparently there's a secret true ending that opens up for a sequel.

It runs like complete shit on the PS4 and has horrific frame pacing. It's a phenomenal game if you despite all that and far deserves better treatment than how Sony is treating it.

Also, The Last of Us 1 had a whole remaster not even a year later after the original came out and now has a whole remake as well.

TLOU PS3 June 2013
TLOU Remaster PS4 January 2014
TLOU Remake PS5 September 2023

So what are you talking about Billy Bob?

Did you forget about all the GTA 5 versions as well? And Skyrim? What about RE 4? Yeah...

No it doesn't, captain hyperbole.

TLOU got a remake because the PS4 can't play PS3 games. Didn't we just go over this? And yes, the PS3 game was remade for PS5. Generations apart and taking advantage of a different magnitude of popularity thanks to the Sony taking the franchise outside of gaming. So, what are you talking about again?
 
Not everything needs a sequel. Sequels aren't automatically a good thing. Sekiro is as self contained as a game could possibly be. Enjoy it for what it is.

Bloodborne needs a higher resolution, better anti-aliasing, removal of chromatic abherration, and a smooth 60 fps framerate. Whether it is accomplished by emulation or game developers, it is only a matter of time before it gets the much needed treatment. A sequel would be interesting.

Sekiro is on PC, so the mods are basically both a remaster and a sequel. May it rot in obscurity.

Agree with everything, with the exception of it actually happening at this point.

Sony is being arrogant again, so I highly doubt they'll do what the fans want them to do. It's really annoying how one of the best games if not the best PS4 game is still being treated like a red-headed step child. I am so sick of all this TLOU fame that I want to throw up. Yeah, TLOU is great and all, but enough is enough. Go fix your other fucking games and make something new for a different franchise for once.

I agree with you OP, there should be a sequel to this masterpiece. It's crazy how I went to want to drop it for being too hard to get the platinum trophy and wanting more.

And then the same guy made Elden Ring. Miyazaki is the best game director since Miyamoto. Everything he touches turns to gold. It's insane.

I swear I've been reading all the comments and getting increasingly pissed off as people say the story is over.

No, it's not. If you get that ending, which is the one that requires you to do all the sidequests, it's heavily hinted there's a new "journey" to be had.
 
Still the best FROM game for me so I'm right there with you. Hope the anime leak is true, too.

A beautiful journey worth taking for a fallen Shinobi to redeem himself again and his young lord, fantastic worldview and setting (helps I'm a Fuedal Japan fanboi) and exhilarating combat. Hesitation is defeat. The art direction is otherworldly in a different way from Bloodborne.

That and everything you do to get Purification and Dragon's Return hints that it's really only opened up a whole new can of worms (heh) and there's many secrets to unearth about the setting. Given the loose time period it takes in, there is still events it can base it on in that journey, too.
 
I like the idea of unique masterpiece. Not everything need a sequel.

I get why people wants sequel for Bloodborne and Sekiro, but personally I don't wish for them (still would be happy if it happens). Let Fromsoft work on amazing new IP even if just for one game.
