Genchiro Horse Sh*t
1. Are you sure you don't want to add a few more health bars?

2. Are you sure you don't want to make me play through the entire game first before watching the cutscene and re-try the fight?

1. Yes would be nice. The boss is pretty easy with just two bars :(

2. What are you talking about?

With 2 I was referring to having to replay the first 2 health bars in order to get to the lightning version.

I just beat him but man I must say with this game From crossed the line from hard-ish games like dark souls into the weird/stupid super nerd gamer category like some of those platformers or other games that literally just exist to make you pull your hair out. I even beat DS3 on NG7+ and this was just some cheese.

You're playing Sekiro on the PC... you passed that "super nerd" criteria a LONG time ago

He was not so easy. It took me 3 attempts, but I've gotten gud I guess at perfect blocking at this point in the game. Even tho it took me only 3 attempts I didn't find him til about 14 hrs in. Apparently I've been exploring waaaay off the beaten path. Had I faced him before I found 7 gourd seeds and made 4 prayer necklaces I imaging he'd of taken quite a few more. I'm not saying nerf him, but don't pretend like you having the skill to beat him makes him easy in general. You could say he's so easy for you and maybe me, but most will struggle with him for sure.

Pro tip to others looking at this. This boss is really only challenging on the first 2 phases. During the Lightning phase it's really simple. Just jump during his lighting attack take the hit and spam RB on the fall down. You'll discharge the stored lightining and do about 1/4 of his HP in dmg making it go by super fast.

The entirety of Sekiro is like that. If you're not having fun now, you won't have fun later

No. he was easy. You just have to hold the block, grapple to him when he turns around, slash, and repeat. His second phase doesn't even get any harder.

Looks like you have no idea what the topic is.

Honestly, Genichiro isn't that hard once you learn his attack patterns. The only trouble is when he pulls out his bow super quick. Most of the time, however, it's slow enough that you can predict when to block the arrows.

The great thing about the fight is that the final stage of the fight is basically like the first stage. The only difference is that some of his attacks are charged with lightning -- which are easily dodged.

Just go in a few times, expecting to die, but with the mindset of learning his attack patterns. It gets better as you keep learning. Once you finish him off, it'll feel super rewarding and you'll feel like a true badass.
