Remnants update = dumbed down and easier game.
It is sad to see From Software finally give in and casualize this wonderful game, I am pretty sure Acitivison had something to do with it.

The Remnant system doesn't belong in a single-player game like Sekiro. Messaging other players made sense in Soulsborne games, it fit the lore and setting, it doesn't fit the setting of Sekiro. On top of that it is a 30 sec tutorial which will show people what to do and where to go, why even play a game then? Just go look up the solution on YouTube, who are you trying to fool? Yourself? Sad to see that this is the state of gamers and the gaming industry in 2020, it will only get worse, a weak globalized "civilization/culture/society" will give rise to weak humans, who become weak/fake gamers.

Rest in peace, From Software, it was a good run.

The remnant system is an admission that From Software has no respect for themselves or their fans and that they are willing to spit on their own creation, dunb it down, casualize and make it easier just to cater to people that never truly cared or will care about From Software and their games. It devalues the game. Watching a YouTube video is a source outside of the game and doesn't put the stigma on From Software. It is the beginning of the end for From Software, rest in peace.

The only hope for salvation is that this is purely Activision spreading their filth once again and that Elden Ring won't suffer from this because it is under Bandai Namco.

That was a real compelling argument. You should totally make a petition for them to never add a single system like that in to any of therre games since that would be a disgrace.

I am not a failed human like the majority of the people, I don't believe in nonsense like petitions, democracy, equality etc. From Software made their move, I will adapt and act accordingly in the future, this is the path they chose, they sold out, rest in peace. Time will tell if this will carry over to Elden Ring or stay exclusively with potential From Software games published under Activision.

The Remnant update single-handedly ruined Sekiro as a game, it no longer has an identity, it is now the WEAKEST Soulsborne game made by From Softare, it used to be one of the best.

You say you hate how they are making the game more for casuals yet you have the 3 most casual Fromsoft games as your favorites.

Funny... literally every game you listed as better than Sekiro already had a virtually identical system with the player ghosts. Which are usually chosen and reproduced in other players’ games by certain algorithms to help them find what other players found, or show them what they did right or wrong during a boss fights or as they traversed the world (they aren’t just random, I hope you did know at least that).

However, to be perfectly honest you just seem like a troll... or a 13 year old that takes entertainment WAY too personally. Whichever you are, good riddance.

Demon's Souls has the easiest combat + almost infinite healing.
Dark Souls 2 has the second most healing items after Demon's Souls and it also has the highest potential i-frames on dodges depending on your stat invesment, a feature unqiue to DaS2.

Thank you for showing you don't know what you are talking about.

Another fake From Software/Soulsborne fan REJECTED.

Demons Souls has the worst controls and hour long healing animations.
DS2s a lot of healing items but they were over time instead of practically instant like in DS1, 3, and BB. DS2 also has the most dead community and worst matchmaking so its almost impossible to get a summon to come help you unlike in DS1 and DS3.
DS1 also has the most op shields and DS3 has basically inifinite rolls.

Stop projecting casual/fake gamer, you take it too personally because you came into this thread to oppose the truth. Sekiro is casualized garbage now compared to other Souls games, Activision got the last laugh, From Software sold out.

If something so little can be added to the game to make it casual garbage then it was already pretty garbage to begin with.

Optional difficulty already exists in Sekiro - see the Demon Bell and Kuro Charm.

The game has also been out for a very long time. 90% of the people still playing already know everything and the phantoms will not do anything to help that.

And what exactly to do you expect the phantoms to show that will be make the game significantly easier? Seeing a phantom parry 10 times in a row won't mean anyone watching it can repeat that.

Why are you so scared of the game becoming a little easier for some? Is your sole enjoyment of this game the difficulty and the way it's gated to mean not everyone can finish it? Do you need to feel like you're part of some elite crowd that can enjoy a game others might not?

You seem awfully angry and defensive at the idea of something being added to the game that, quite frankly, will have ZERO impact on how YOU play the game.

Doesn't change the fact that I am still right. All those points you brought up imply error in execution, not numerical values as facts. So what if the healing is over time? You pop a healing shard, move back and wait, then engage.

All From Software games are easy, it is just a matter of how easy they are. Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 2 are super easy. Sekiro just got braindead with literal 30 sec built in personal YouTube guide to show you where to go, what to do and how to do it.

Accept it, Sekiro will get dumbed down and easier with Remnant update.

Activision got the last laugh, From Software sold out, rest in peace.

you're being very over dramatic. it's just remnants, not actual summons.chill mate.

Just go look on YouTube? Are you really trying to shame people who are looking for guidance? What a joke. The game is still great. Btw. They sell an official guide for the game, so there are many solutions out there to receive assistance.

Optional difficulty INCREASEMENT already exists in Sekiro, not optional difficulty REDUCTION. Thank you for showing that you are either intellectually dishonest or don't know what you are talking about.

Messaging system and ghosts running destroys the lore and setting of Sekiro, it will no longer be a tight and coherent creation of story, gameplay, ost, art-direction etc. It will be another garbage product with no identity and vision, taking elements from other games that do not belong in its setting. Messaging other players and phantoms made SENSE in the setting and lore of Souls and even Bloodborne, but not in Sekiro which is a single-player game.

This is a sign of things to come, the beginning of the end for From Software, they finally gave in, they sold out, this is the first step.

Rest in peace From Software, it was a good run.

Remnants are worse than summons, it destroys the identity of the game. It is From Software bending the knee. Activision won, From Software lost.

If this update takes people like you away from this games and community, then I will applaud louder.
I'll still play their games, but they won't be rewarded for it ;) They make their move, I make mine. I am always on the winning side.
Wtf does they won't be rewarded for it mean. You think they care about your opinion? No they just want money because money means they can make more games.
