GSY Video PC PS4

You know what, for once, I have had a bit of time, so I figured I should get ready for the upcoming release of Nioh 2. Back when the first game came out, I barely had time to play the first few levels, up until I met Hino-enma, who gave me such a hard time for daring to face her. In retrospect, I now realize, she was just a mere appetizer and required no particular skills to beat. I have about 2 levels and a half to go before I reach the end of the main game (DLCs will have to wait), so I wanted to remind you all that in less than 2 weeks, we're going to have to learn patience and abnegation all over again. Here are 2 videos recorded on PC, nothing extraordinary, just me trying to pretend I am not scared of demanding titles. If you happen to have bought the game recently on PS4 (it was on deep sales something like a week ago or so), chin up!

Really glad you finished Sekiro and Nioh. Games like these aren't "hard", they just require a lot of time, observation and patience to get through. The great thing is that most often than not, they are well worth playing.

If you happen to find yourself with enough time again, I would definitely recommend Dark Souls 1 Remastered or Bloodborne, if you never finished them. Alternatively, I also recommend Hollow Knight and/or Gauacamelee! 2 if you're interested in great games in a 2D Metroidvania style. I 100% both and they're well worth playing.

Also, here's a tip that might blow your mind. If you're ever stressed or just very mad with someone or something, playing a very hard game helps tremendously, at first it gets worse since you get frustrated with an enemy or section, but if you persist, it takes your mind off of whatever is bothering you and when you beat it you immediately feel better. A lot better.

I never said I finished Sekiro (or Nioh for that matter, though I'm much closer to the end). I also started Dark Souls on Switch and reached Ornstein and Smough. :p

Sorry for implying that you finished Sekiro, though you were doing very well, as far as I can remember, so did you finish it?

As for Nioh, you're basically at the end, if you can't beat the final boss, you can just watch the ending on YouTube. I still consider that finishing a game, since you would have played and seen all the main story.

Now let's get really serious, why haven't you been posting Dark Souls videos like you did with Sekiro? I at least demand - DEMAND - to see you beat Ornstein and Smough!!! Not because I doubt your skills or anything, but because it's one of the best boss fights ever. Share the love. That's just basic human decency.

Had to stop Sekiro pretty much after the last videos I posted because of the other releases which were coming out. Never took the time to continue.

I played Dark Souls on vacation for something like a week (in portable mode) and I guess I'll continue the next time I'm on holidays so don't expect videos anytime soon (if ever).
