Did exactly the same thing. First play through I only made it to the second biome - I had so many games on the go at the time so I just didn’t go back (don’t get me wrong I liked the game). This time around I love the game and have just hit the fourth biome. Loved the boss at the end of the third biome with that music playing.

Thanks for the reply. Somehow managed to put up with the load times on P1. However, I’ll just download both to the PS5 (never got round to finishing P1 even though I enjoyed it loads).Going through a CRPG binge playing the likes of Wasteland 2 and 3 and going through Divinity 2 again.

Yup - my mate who works nightshirts has been trying to secure one for me but scabby scalpers scupper any chance of it happening. If anyone deserves pubic lice it’s them.

Try as I might still haven’t got my hands on one. Oh well I’ve got so much to play it really is a non-issue.

I did manage to get a Switch though.

An interesting difference (I should have mentioned) between the two is in the original on a couple of occasions you’re faced with various scenarios where time stands still and you have to make a split second decision what action to take.
That feature was taken out of the remake. To my memory there is also a boss in the original that’s not in the remake. Anyway I hope that helps.

I wouldn’t say one is necessarily better than the other, but even though they’re the same game they offer quite different experiences. They’re definitely both worth playing just to see different locations as an example (plus both can be finished in quick time so it won’t take long to see what they offer).

Nice one. Yeah the combat is superb on Sekiro, although I prefer the worlds of Dark Souls / Bloodborne (I just find them more interesting in terms of lore and exploration). Sounds like your blasting through at the moment - once you kill the next boss the game really opens up for you. I’m trying to finish my second play through for the Shura ending but the final boss doesn’t want to play fair and keeps kicking my ass.

Yeah it’s really good - I’d definitely prefer the combat to DS. I’d say it’s just as vague (if that’s the best word) in terms of telling what you need to do/where to go, but for me that’s where the satisfaction comes once you’ve figured out what to do. I was going through I patch where I couldn’t get past a certain boss and thought I’d exhausted all other routes to explore, but eventually found an unexplored path and since then the game has opened up massively. That’s why I say just stick with it.

Ooh you dropped the fanboy card - well done you. I’m very receptive of others opinions and at no point did I claim this was ‘god tier’ as you put it. I enjoyed the game very much but it doesn’t rank in my all time greats (clearly you assumed that this was my dream game - it’s not). I’m just interested as to how come to the conclusion that the general public’s’ opinion is more valid than that of the critics.
