Walican132, do gaming w This is Sekiro for me.

I’m working on my first playthrough of Sekiro right now but I’m kinda stuck. Corrupted Monk just takes so little damage from my attacks I’m not sure if I’m doing something wrong.

Corrupted monk is one of the tougher fights. When I beat it the first time, I was just chipping away like you, and it took me forever.

You can speed it up by parrying as much as possible to stance break.

Walican132,

Yeah I’m pretty bad at partying in general. Working on it though enjoying the game so far?

I fought with it the whole time on my first run too. It was too hard to unlearn all my dark souls muscle memory.

I haven’t played for years, but from what I remember, the posture damage is shit. There are moments where the Corrupted Monk is open after an attack I think. This is the moment to strike.

Edit: it took me back haha, but there are those big attacks where you have a red symbol over your head, you dodge that attack and strike.

pressanykeynow,

Well it’s actually easy, just parry all their attacks and deal damage when they are not attacking /s

You’ve already got this far, so you’ll do it.

There are also ninja tricks that make this fight trivial.

Walican132,

Any tips on which ninja tricks to try using?

pressanykeynow,

Using firecracker, snap seeds(up to 3 times) or ash you can stun lock her to the death, use divine confetti to deal lots of damage to her.

Be aware snap seeds are a limited resource until after the >!True Corrupted Monk!< fight, which is both optional/missable and also exists near the very end of the game.

You can allegedly farm them off some monkeys in Sunken Valley but you’re going to be spending an awful lot of time there for minimal returns, the drop rate sucks.

Guitarfun,

Corrupted monk has a lot of health. It helps to use Divine Confetti and maybe Akos Sugar. I rarely deal enough posture damage on him without depleting his health bar.

Guitarfun,

The divine confetti might only work on the spirit version. Still other consumables may help.

Live2day,

Divine confetti works on all enemies it just gives a bit extra damage on top of it’s standard boost to apparitions.

Walican132,

Oh I didn’t think confetti would work. I should give that a try.

Do randomizers count? If so, I play though Link to the Past like 15 times a year

The_Picard_Maneuver,
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world avatar

I had never even considered that there might be randomizers for classics… I’m going to look up this one!

toomanypancakes,
@toomanypancakes@lemmy.world avatar

There’s randomizers for Super Metroid too. And I’ve even seen one that’s LttP and Super Metroid together played at games done quick lol

The_Picard_Maneuver,
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world avatar

Ok, this is something that I’m looking forward to trying. Just gotta figure out how you’re supposed to download these.

Godort, (edited )

alttpr.com/en/randomizer for Link to the Past

sm.samus.link for Super Metroid

samus.link for the combined version

You will need a ROM of whichever game you want to randomize (or both in the case of the combo randomizer)

Thank you!

Broken_Monitor,

I’m pretty sure there is for Dark Souls…

The_Picard_Maneuver,
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve seen the videos of these, although I’ve always been hesitant to mod my game.

Broken_Monitor,

To be safe put it in offline mode. You can always do a clean install later. I do prefer being online but if you’ve played the crap out of it already it shouldn’t matter much

Schmoo,

I like loading randomized Pokemon games onto a flash cart and playing them on my old Gameboy Advance SP.

11/10 experience

A_Very_Big_Fan,

I think I have more fun with Ocarina of Time randomizers than I did actually playing OoT

Baggie, do gaming w This is Sekiro for me.

I have been playing Sekiro with a randomiser recently, really helps breathe some new life into games you’ve beaten like 10 times already.

Ahh, this is me with Toy Story 2 for PS1… I have yet to try the dream cast version!

I remember liking the Dreamcast version!

kratoz29,
@kratoz29@lemm.ee avatar

I truly wonder if it has some QOL changes, or at least better visuals, anyway I have my nostalgia googles for the PS1 version… But it would be interesting… And I dare I’m curious for another game session.

And I can’t see myself to finish it at least once 🙃

I am not saying it is a bad game by any means, I just struggle to finish games in a nutshell lol (also not fun when I leave an RPG game for a long period of time, get back to it rusty and clueless of where I left).

PigStyle, do gaming w This is Sekiro for me.

Freelancer(2003). Replay this at least once a year.

BigPotato,

I had Freelancer with me on a deployment one year. Running space convoys by night, getting ambushed for my diamonds and stuff, running real convoys by day, getting ambushed for geopolitics.

Every time I pick up the disc, it takes me back.

When did OW pull this? It’s been a long while since i followed news of that game

The_Picard_Maneuver,
@The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world avatar

This post looks like it was from 2018, so pretty early on in the game’s life.

I remember it. People would get banned for using emotes if someone reported that they felt mocked. And people would report players that weren’t using meta characters for “gameplay sabotage”, and they would occasionally be banned.

solsangraal,

i remember all the way back OW1 when “griefing” was a thing that people enjoyed to do for some reason, meaning you’re basically boned if you’re playing with randos. looks like the “ban everyone all the time” solution didn’t quite pan out

I think it’s a psychological trap that people fall into when in charge of anything. Being overly punitive feels like doing something, when often a lighter touch would be healthier in the long run.

This happens with games, managers at work, parents with their kids, the justice system, or even moderation on forums like here or reddit.

solsangraal,

essteeyou,

Ban this person!

solsangraal,

it was just a prank bro

SSJMarx,

Being overly punitive feels like doing something, when often a lighter touch would be healthier in the long run.

This definitely isn’t true. The best subreddits/Lemmy communities by far are the most heavily moderated. The reason why moderation in OW/LoL/TF2/etc fails is because there simply aren’t enough mods to match the playerbase, which is an inevitability in the modern matchmaking scene where all the players are mixed together all the time.

Back in the days of dedicated servers, you would learn which servers were unmoderated pits and which ones had quality players on them because the mods were always online. Nowadays every multiplayer experience is the pit.

Nefara,

It was not an uncommon occurrence for people to play as, say, Symmetra, Torb or Hanzo and refuse to switch regardless of the circumstances of play and whether they were able to use those characters effectively. People got reported (and subsequently banned) for throwing matches and griefing constantly if they were on an off-meta or “troll” character in Overwatch 1. Thinking specifically around seasons 1-10 or so.

teft,
@teft@lemmy.world avatar

That’s when I played. When it first released and for a few years afterwards. I usually played with friends at a high level though so maybe I just wasn’t exposed to trolls like that enough to form a memory.

zaph,

MindTraveller,

Playing your favourite character doesn’t make you a troll. It means you’re having fun.
