Sekiro is a horrible amalgamation of 2 games at odds with themselves.
One is a very good action dueling game where 1v1 duels are incredibly fun and satisfying to pull off.
The other is a stealth game where your character has to go around and methodically clear out camps of enemies over the course of several minutes withtout alerting anyone lest you be forced to fight a crowd of 15 enemies.
The problem is that to get to the first game, you have to do the second. Over, and over, and over again, to the point that it becomes a tedious exercise in repetition.
It is not fun or rewarding to systematically clear out 15 enemies in a row, stealthly since you dont wanna lose health, only to get to a boss, die in 20 seconds because youre still learning the pattern, and having to do it all over again.
The alternative is simply bullrushing the crowd of enemies which will quite possibly get you hurt, if its your first time playing, or worse get you killed.
This culminates in a protracted exercise in boredom as you repeat this pointless exercise over and over, just for a chance at fighting the cool and interesting boss. Its frustrating, infuriating and baffling.
This game sucks ass
