I’ve been playing this game off and on, starting over since it came out. I was a hardcore Bloodborne player, but also played a lot of elden ring and ds3. Sekiro never clicked, I thought it was slick and the action felt incredible but I just couldn’t get past the beginning. Finally I’ve broken through and am having a blast, and its all thanks to Armored Core 6. Thanks Armored Core 6 (I will not elaborate).

    but for a boss, it’s faster to just learn the fight than spend time farming tokens to try to grind it out with prosthetics.

    Eh not always… Not going to spoil anything but there are bosses that were designed for specific tools to be helpful. As in there are unique animations and effects when you use them on them.

    I say let them play like they want to play.

      Fair enough–there is one specific boss that comes to mind where a specific prosthetic is supremely useful, as well as some mini bosses. All the “enemy with sword” bosses like Genichiro are pretty straight up, though.

        For sure. The game can be beat without prosthetics at all if that’s your bag. I personally found it fun to mix it up with some of the mini boss fights and some of the harder “regular fights”. I don’t think it takes anything away from the satisfaction, because they really aren’t that effective even when you max them out.
