It's not a great game, even for someone who loves the Souls games and Bloodborne. The ninja character can take 2 hits by ANYTHING before dying so in order to succeed, you have to think like a ninja. EXCEPT THE BOSS FIGHTS DON'T LET YOU. It's a straight up duel where one mistake ruins the entire attempt AND poisons NPCs with some kind of "rot". Punishment for not being good at a game isn't fun or fair or even interesting. Stick to Dark Souls or Bloodborne to get your fix for challenging games, Sekiro is a terrible experiment that I hope never gets repeated by FromSoftware.
