you can fight any boss you've already beaten

boss rush mode where you have to beat a certain string of bosses in a row

ability to leave messages for other players, including recordings of yourself

new unlockable outfits

nothing massive but a pleasant surprise, considering the game was released over a year ago

So how does this work with ending-specific bosses like Lit Isshin and Emma? Because I would assume if you NG+ afterwards you can't re-fight them?

you can fight any boss you have beaten in any of your playthroughs. Since I've gotten every ending, I have access to every boss, even though on my current ng playthrough I'm only like 1/3 done.

No the story is static regardless of how you play. Also I can't wait to replay Owl Father again I feel like I can do so much better, I just haven't felt like going through the steps to get to that fight again.

one of the most fun and rewarding games I've ever played. the combat is excellent but unforgiving and the bosses are some of the best in gaming, which is why the option to replay any boss and a boss rush mode is awesome.

basic story is you play a shinobi for this young lord with immortal blood from a dragon, while there is a looming war brewing in the area. he wants to severe this tie with the dragon because people keep going to war over it and you help him with his wish. since his method of severing ties requires magical elements, you have to go around collecting these items from dangerous beings.

Strange because that's the exact reason why I stopped playing it.
I found the rewards for the challenges posed by bosses to be unrewarding and underwhelming.

I got to the boss on the top of the dojo and just said, "fuck it" and stopped playing. Very challenging game with underwhelming rewards.

you were still pretty early on in the game, I think you just reached genichiro. that's nearly everyone's first wall and you either keep smacking your head against the wall until you finally figure out how to best play the game or you give up.

if you were not having enough fun though, maybe beating genichiro wouldn't have changed it so I don't fault anyone for not liking the game.

Yeah, I found myself not enjoying the game after a while. Not that the game needed an easy mode but the rewards were not worth the challenge for me.

I just finished Sekiro a week or two ago.

It was fun. I was surprised that the last boss wasn't harder. I had a much easier time with Sword Saint Isshin than I did against the second Owl fight, Demon of Hatred, or even the first Guardian Ape fight.

I think Demon of Hatred gave me the most grief. It seemed like I had to fight him more like a Dark Souls boss than other Sekiro bosses.

I can agree that the boss fights weren't rewarding, in the sense that you don't really get much from beating them. No cool novelty items like in Dark Souls. But there is a certain satisfaction to be had from overcoming a tough boss.

I remember first fighting Genichiro and having a hard time, because I was trying to play cautiously. Eventually I changed to a more aggressive style and trounced him. It was like "Yeah! Fuck you, Genichiro!"

Or Shikibu Toshikatsu Yamauchi. I swear I died more to those two than most of the actual bosses combined.

They weren't one of the hard minibosses but I liked those mages that had a bunch of spirits or something in the arena. There's one in the divine realm near a waterfall and one in a cave I think? I don't really remember because it's been a while.

yeah those guys had cool designs and the battles were something to look at, similar to the headless. it just looked sick dodging all those terror attacks and smacking him with your divine enchanted purple sword in dark caves.

I'd talk about it if I still wasn't playing Doom Eternal and Hades. Is the Divine Dragon any different in the gauntlets? Because I liked the music, but the fight was about on par with Gyoubu and the Folding Screen Monkeys.

I actually died my first attempt at Gyoubu, unlike the other two I mentioned <_<

the divine dragon isn't in any of the 3 gauntlets. the gauntlets pretty much have everyone except the dragon, monkeys and illusion monk.

you can replay any boss in the other mode but I'm sure divine dragon is exactly the same.
