Even more depressing to see Codexers judging it like it should be Dark Souls.

What is sad is what happened to Fallout franchise, not a great action/adventure game that unskilled players that can't beat it, or people wanting another RPG, think is bad.
Sekiro is 2019 highest-grossing single-player only game on Steam!

Plus afaik it was discounted for the first time only like a week ago. The whole time it was selling at full price.
Miyazaki can finally afford his dream Russian waifu. Or two.

depressing list tbh.
Depending on your perspective. Gaming hasn't been a "by nerds for nerds" thing for over 20 years. It's mainstream now.
Frankly it's a miracle games like Civ, Three Kingdoms or Sekiro are anywhere close to the top, let alone in the Platinum group.

Got the last Shura ending that I missed on my first playthrough today. Now I'm sad there isn't more Sekiro to play.
Ace Combat 7 deserved better.

Not impressed with this so far chaps. Combat feels way more digital than the Souls games or Nioh, and it really lacks the demonic edge which both those games have too.
It's also too easy to stealth the game so far, and the actual bosses seem to go down easier to button bashing because of the lack of a stamina gauge, than they do considered tactics.
Only a few hours in (killed the first general now in that dream area), but it's got some catching up to do.

It's more digital. There's less analogue gameplay

It's really weird, considering its success, that they didn't release any DLC.

I just recently discovered these videos, not sure if these has been posted before
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5zhOAf7tRrMMi1rH4c9VO46a2KP045vI
I failed a [Reading Comprehension] check on that Senpou Leaping Kick description saying it started with an 'anti-air counter'
so that's why I executed an anti-air deathblow when performing it at roughly the same time as those hat monks jumping up in the air, huh...
Also, those cool stuff you can perform with Shadowrush. I've always wondered why Shadowrush exists when Shadowfall at least do something after the jump.

you can insta kill the monks (and the headless shaman dude) the moment they jump just by jumping yourself. you dont need that move.

I know all that. Anti-Air Deathblow is some cool shit that's, unfortunately, not train-able with Hanbei so you're left to your own devices to experiment and play around with it. I guess some people also missed it because you can only get it from a trader who also happened to be a midget. Been performing it on those cocks when they jumped in the air and I deflected them, and also been trying to use it on Shichimen Warrior but it's a bit tricky until you get used to it, and also needing divine confetti.
I was just pointing out the fact that leaping kick, as per its description, started *with* an anti-air counter move, which explains why I automatically performed anti-air deathblow on those monks when I performed it at roughly the same time as they jumped, most probably because the anti-air counter interrupt their jumping move and makes them a target for anti-air deathblow. The video also demonstrate how the anti-air counter move works, though I'm not sure if he had anti-air deathblow at the time or not.
The video doesn't illustrate any combat art. It's simply a jump followed by an attack. A target doesn't need to be interrupted to be vulnerable to an anti-air deathblow, so leaping kick is useless for dealing with airborne peeps.

You just shat in the bed.
Your videos are showing the Anti-Air Deathblow skill.
That's how much you've played Sekiro.
Fucking expert.
By "combat art" I meant the active abilities you have to manually, mechanically pull off by holding L1 followed by R1. This is consistent with how they're called in game.
The anti-air deathblow skill is, as the name suggests, a skill, available in the "Acquire skills" menu, and is not a combat art, which has a separate menu.
