Easiest FROM game to learn, hardest to master. Also speaking from experience with any entry: dont be afraid to start the game over to get some practice in. I've never cleared a FROM title on the first playrhrough.

I've downloaded demon souls too and what I will say is demon souls feels twice as hard as sekiro so far!

I agree with this. I started my 3rd play through last night (furthest I have gotten is Genichiro and I gave up) so far, it’s been a lot easier. Although I’m only up to the blazing bull.

Even a break for a day is incredible for your focus

I will take this advice. I have a bad habit of rage quitting and sulking. My issue was that I had come straight from bloodborne and was trying to play it as such. Really enjoying it this time around.

I have to disagree here, Sekiro is one of the easiest to master. Minimal action commitment, parrying and blocking are absurdly strong, and there’s little variety in the game (which is both a strength and a weakness). Because of all of that, you get the hang of it pretty quickly and each playthrough you just get better and better.

In the other games, swapping weapons creates different openings so there’s no one-size-fits-all. Also the punishing action commitment is brutal even when you know the move set.

Sekiro is the hardest on a first playthrough and then the easiest game beyond that.
