no leveling up, no upgrading weapons, where's the progress then?

[Dex]

That was a massive part of why I love the Souls games.

u are not expected to finish this game so they removed the progression system entirely.

seems like they're going with a skill based tree..I prefer leveling and allocating stats, upgrading weapons, etc but we'll have to see how it pans out.

Well this is sekiro :) not Dark souls :) not even close to dark souls :) so ofcourse it has diffrent mechancis, you cant just play Diablo 2 and then when warcraft comes out be mad that it is a building game with many monsters and not a top arpg with leveling progression and loot :) itsm ade by the same company but its a diffrent game

^ what he said, so stop complaining and play something else.

Its not dark souls, why you trying to compare, why? I dont understand

[Dex]

You guys seem very sensitive about this game lol. It's a public forum, it's a game created by the makers of Demon Souls (who have a history of making games that are related/similar) so of course I'm going to compare them lol.

Tenchu was nothing like dark souls :), they also made many other games that wasnt like dark souls :)

your basicly saying that blizzard is only allowed to only make diablo and warcraft games, :)

let them try something new ;) you will love it nonetheless, but hate it if you go in expecting it to be a souls clone

I never played Demon Souls, Dark Souls or Bloodborne but i did pre-order Sekiro. probably this game will open me the doors for the other games FromSoftware but you need to stop complaining Sekiro to the other titles from this company when they already stated that they are doing something different, plus because it's different doesn't mean it will be bad.

I'm all for them trying something new, hence my earlier comment of "but we'll have to see how it pans out." I trust them, and I'm sure they'll make a good game, I'm just apprehensive on the progression system.

this game has more progression than any souls game come before it :), hence, progression is tied to a skill tree that lets you do TON of abilities with 1 weapon instead of going 1 build and only having 2 buttons and then blocking the rest of the time :)
and yes you had multiple weapons to choose from and you had multiple armor sets, but in the end you had a build in mind and you used that throughout the entire game :) most armors were never used anyway, only for fashion, :) everythign you find in this game is way more rewarding because it is needed to overcome stronger foes :)

It's a spiritual successor to Tenchu. It's never been advertised as a Soulsborne game.

[Delaborga]

i actually feel abit sad for the developers :( they just wanna make a new great series like ds but with theyre own brand and make it more have a big follow up and raise as much as dark souls did, but people just cant let the dark souls formular down :(

[Phishfood]

The progress comes when you learn enemy attacks enough to parry every single one. There is some horizontal levelling but the real levelling happens in YOU
