Why is gruff old man and shota duo so popular in games
>>735127251that's a cat
are you scared of the word "kid"
>>735127251faggot
>>735127345Still fits, he's old despite being a manlet
2 of my favorite games of all time, but if those were lolis instead they would both be secure in my top 4 for life.
>>735127497Nice to meet you, faggot ;)
>>735127345Out of 10!
>>735127408are you scared of the word "shota"
>>735127251It's just a really common archetype because it humanizes a character that would otherwise just be a remorseless killing machine. It also adds depth to the character, by characterizing them based on what they're protecting and why. Authors use tropes for the same reason mathematicians use calculators; they're effective.
>>735127571Sekiro has rice loli at least. Did the gato have any loli NPCs?
>>735130274There was young Heng
>>735127251Sekiro is a 14 yo dude.
Ough, shuanshuan.....
>>735127251Sekiro doesn't really qualify as a gruff old man. More of a weathered young man.
>>735130861>>735132093HIS NAME IS WOLF!!!!!!!!
>>735132434The Tengu guy you see after beating the castlegateman calls him Sekiro
>>735130274Heng is all you need
How does Nine Sols compare to Hollow Knight and Silksong in terms of difficulty? Both games kicked my ass, but I still manage to beat the bosses. What I'm really worried about is the runbacksAnd also, are there any missable items or bosses? That's another thing I didn't like about Silksong
>>735132739Nine sols is more of an action rpg parry slop than metroidvania, hollow knight is more traditional metroidvania
Why didn't sols just captured Yi (like Jiequan did) instead of killing him
>>735132434His name is Okami you piece of shit.
>>735132739Nine Sols is not nearly as hard as Silksong. The worst it gets is a major difficulty spike at the final boss, but some people have expressed pains at every boss so it's up to you to find out what boss doesn't gel with you. There's no runbacks. Respawn points are basically always one screen transition away from the boss, the worst maybe being a boss that's next to an elevator that you can speed up by remembering to reset the elevator each time you use it.Nothing is missable on a single save. There's a point of no return right at the very end of the game that is heavily telegraphed, and will auto-load you before that point once you beat the final boss. You also can choose any ending you want once you meet the requirements for either of them.And like >>735132879 said, it's not much of a Metroidvania. You can go to some locations early, but movement upgrades and bosses are locked behind story progression. You can also only beat 2 bosses out of order in the begining, and 2 more in the end.
>>735133137Okami is his title >:O
>>735132739It's easier than silksong, and shorter than hollow knight.The final boss is a major difficulty step up because you can't just cheese or outstat it, you have to learn the patterns and parries.
>>735127251Name 5 games
>>735127952Only post answering OP question.
>>735127251Makes me want to do another sekiro playthrough.>>735131881How is 9sols? I wasn't really interested in it at first, but I keep hearing good things about it. Also I thought it was a furry game, are there human characters or is that just a fan design?>>735132093I agree; he's just been through a lot in his life.
>>735133891>How is 9sols?Solid Mostly-linear action game. Doesn't have the same type of parry depth as Sekiro, but makes up for it by having some good bosses and a solid story>are there human characters or is that just a fan design?there are multiple human characters, but only two get speaking roles. The story eventually reveals the cat people you play as pass their knowledge onto humans and form society as we know it.
>>735133134God I wish I was Yi
>>735133891It's fun, even though I hate parry system in games because of my reaction speed. It have really cool music and art direction. Gameplay is 2d action rpg with light metroidvania elements. Apemen (some ancient four fingered proto humans) are mainly npc and quest givers, main character have cute apeman little brother/son Shuanshuan and drinking buddy Shennong
