![Sekiro Is A Masterpiece [A Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice Retrospective]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/4PBudh0YNok/mqdefault.jpg)
Total play time was 60 hours. Elden Ring next year.
The next episode will be Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart. I fancy something light and cheerful for a change of pace.
I platniumed both Elden Ring and Rift Apart. Both were VERY enjoyable platniums. You are in for a good time.
Elden Ring definitely has the easiest platinum out of the souls series, but I’d also say the most enjoyable
Good Job Adam
Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart was such a fun experience. You have earned it after Sekiro. :)
Can’t wait
My absolute favourite game of all time played by my absolute favourite trophy hunter of all time, what a treat
I do have one suggestion for this game, play it in Japanese! Everything sounds SO much cooler it’s crazy.
Yeah big time. I think fromsoftware said that japanese is the correct way to play it. It defaults to japanese doesn't it?
@@christopherbennett1173 I played in Japanese. Would 100% recommend.
What a kissarse
I remember my first playthrough of Sekiro lasting around 40-50 hours. Most of that was me floundering at the new mechanics and the bosses. My brain just refused to unlearn my Dark Souls habits, even after playing the hell out of Bloodborne. I was royally pissed off and upset with myself multiple times. But when it *finally clicked;* oh my fucking god I could actually play the game and get somewhere with it. And when I finally beat Sword Saint Isshin, I was on top of the fucking world. Sekiro has gone from maybe my second least favorite FromSoftware game to perhaps being my second favorite. Maybe even my number 1, depends on when you ask me. It was nice to see someone react to things I've known about for years, for the first time. It sort of reignited some of my forgotten passion for Sekiro. Many thanks, Adam, for the incredible episode.
I know there's other RUclipsrs getting the platinum trophy nowadays, I think you inspired them to do these type of content. Because you're such a Legendary Platinum Trophy RUclipsr. Btw I love China and Japan, because the sceneries in those places calms me down the most
That is nice of you to say. I think Nick AR inspired them though - titles, thumbnails, opening subtitle text, trophy tracker are all similar - and Nick was inspired by Mr. Beast and Mystic.
China and Japan have beautiful landscapes. Hope to get to Japan someday.
@@AdamMcDermott I always dreamed of going to Japan, and I will pray for you that you'll go to Japan someday
This series is comfort entertainment. Well crafted, full of emotion, and and always makes me smile. It is also inspiring to learn from fellow content creators. Cheers for your Premium Entertainment, Adam.
Being considered comfort entertainment is a huge compliment. I'm honoured.
The most Adam thing I can think of is stopping to take in the sceneries, haha. You truly are the master of making even the most stressful games a relaxing experience. Great episode dude!
Haha, it looked pretty!
Worth the wait for the long episode. Glad you're still doing the hard platinums like this and Metal Gear Solid.
Cheers. The hard platinums do still occasionally entice me.
After watching several videos, I see your dedication and love for games. You got my sub. Keep em piling up🏆Greetings from Slovakia.
Thank you. Welcome to the channel.
Greetings from Ireland.
I lived in Tuam for a year and the moved to Enfield Co. Meath where I stayed for almost seven years. Moved back when my son got born... I love Ireland.
@@iNubpwn3r Wow, that is fantastic! Glad you had a good time. Ireland is a nice place to live.
I first stumbled across your channel towards the beginning of secondary school. In a couple of months, I’ll have finished university… and I still look forward to the next platinum journey.
That is really cool. You've literally grown up watching me. Thanks for sticking around all these years.
Been looking really forward to this Adam. Can't wait to see how well the video has turned out
Absolutely loved the video, probably my favourite you've put out so far. Felt a lot shorter than it was, so you know it was a great one.
I'm very glad to see you enjoyed Sekiro, its one of the best games ever made in my opinion. Can't wait for the next one Adam, happy hunting :)
My roommate and I watched this as soon as the Patreon alert came out, hands down out favourite episode you've done. Great work man, what an achievement, you looked like you were having the best time :)
It is a huge compliment that this is you and your roommate's favourite episode. You are not the only people to say that, other patrons have said the same.
Personally, it is fantastic that after 8 years of making the show I'm still making someone's new favourite episode. Platinum Journey will be around for a long time to come :)
Yooo this is fire! This is probably the second-best episode to Metal Gear Solid 4, nothing can beat that. Great work Adam. Your videos are exemplary for other platinum RUclipsrs.
That is a huge compliment, thank you. Yeah, the MGS4 one is the best in my opinion too. Cheers!
Fantastic video Adam. The editing, music and storytelling were all top notch. Really glad you enjoyed they game, it's honestly one of my favorite gameplay experiences. Thanks for such a phenomenal video.
Thank you. Glad you think the video is good. Yeah, I had a great time with Sekiro.
LETS GO!!!!! waited a long time for this one! this was my first FromSoftware plat, so big ups to you!!!
Been waiting for this for ages, so so good. One of the best games / videos yet.
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it so much!
An absolute blast to watch. Seeing you go through the bosses and your plans of attack are always a joy, especially for these souls games. Cheers
Thank you. Glad you got a kick out my planning my strategy. Felt it was important to leave that in the episode.
I love how your channel is a very chill no rush just play and enjoy I like a lot of trophy channels but genuinely wait for your videos because it seems you pick games that you genuinely enjoy
Thank you. I am quite selective about which games I cover. If I'm gonna spend all that time getting the platinum and post-production, might as well like the game.
Congratulations Adam I Was So Looking Forward To This Platinum Journey And It Didn’t Disappoint Looking Forward For Rachet And Clank Rift Apart
Only recently discovered your channel, Adam and I am obsessed, great content, really enjoying these video's. Keep up the excellent work mate!
Welcome to the channel. Delighted you enjoy my videos so much.
This was my first fromsoftware game, nothing beats that feeling of learning a boss that seemed impossible at first and beating it
Well done Adam! A truly exceptional plat and another wonderful episode - thank you for taking us with you on this journey!
Thank you very much. Delighted you enjoyed the episode so much.
Already here to rewatch yet again. It's currently 4:30 AM for me right now. Watching this, then off to bed
Great video, Adam. Seing you with a white shirt and blue tie, always makes me smile.
I struggled so much with the final boss (Sword Saint, Isshin Ashina). It wasn’t even funny anymore. I took a two year long break. When I decided to come back to the game, I did a fresh playthrough to get back to form and it was amazing to me, how easy my "second" playthrough was. Bosses, I had struggled with in 2019 (Genichiro, Guardian Ape, Owl), I beat in a few attempts. With more confidence, I returned to my 1st playthrough and finally beat Sword Saint Isshin. This boss still gives me nightmares, but the rest of the game is fantastic. It is my third favorite FromSoftware game. (1 BB, 2 Demon’s Souls).
Thank you. I like keeping the outfit the same, it is my Platinum Journey attire, haha.
Don't blame you for stopping. The final boss is tough. Yeah, in new game plus you really see the improvement in your skill.
One of my favourite videos of yours. A special mention for your choice of music throughout. ❤
Thank you. A few people have brought up the music choice, glad people liked it.
Its was a great watch! Well done Adam on beating Sekiro and getting the plat!
Cheers. Yeah, pretty happy with having this platinum.
What I love about your Plat Journeys is that your production really feels like watching a BBC Nature doc by the legendary Attenborough:it’s soothing and also tells a unique story!
That is a huge compliment.
David Attenborough is a legend. In my opinion, England's greatest person. To be compared to him is a massive honour. Thank you.
Your production value is great. The platinum journey episodes feel like sitting down for an a good movie
That is exactly what I'm going for. Make each episode worthy of making time for.
Love your channel Adam, been watching you for years. Hope you never stop making these fantastic gems for us to enjoy! This platinum is definitely a tough one, big accomplishment 👏
Thanks for sticking around over the years. Don't worry, I'll be making videos for a long time to come.
A new platinum journey episode and a beer by my side, this is going to be a great day.
I love to hear this! It is why I say "grab a drink" at the start. For some that is tea, coffee or water, but I get a kick out it being beer for some folks.
@@AdamMcDermott really unnecessary comment my friend. Just say awesome snd go on
@@blicleak1101 Why is it really unnecessary? Genuinely curious.
Sekiro is one of my favorite games of all time. I’m so excited for this video!
Might be my new favourite video of yours. Really amazing.
Woah! That is high praise.
Nothing like being up at 12 A.M and watching a new platinum journey. Thanks Adam, your content is always amazing!
You are more than welcome!
I've been waiting for this episode and it's one of your best! Congrats Adam, you did an amazing job on telling us your journey across Ashina with a lot of enjoyment!
Thank you very much. I'm glad the video was worth the wait.
Been looking forward to this! Congrats Adam!
Thank you!
Can’t wait to watch this through, one of my favorite games ever!
This game is amazing. It takes time to master but once you understand the rhythm of each boss enemy, then you feel invincible.
I've been waiting with anticipation for this episode, cannot wait to watch it now!
Nice video, this was a enjoyment to watch. This looked like a fun learning curve with a solid story. I haven't platinumed even my first FromSoft-game yet, Elden Ring still sits at 0% 😅 Eventually I think I would give it a go again with a fresh start by picking another class to start with. This video kind of gave me an idea that I might want to try to do Sekiro too someday. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. If I can beat Sekiro, I'm sure you can too.
Your editing skills keep getting better and better Adam!
Thank you for another great journey!
Thank you. The goal is always to be improving. For some episodes everything falls into place perfectly.
best notification ever
Ever since your Bloodborne platinum I went back and platinumed every fromsoftware game, thanks Adam 🤘🏼
I'm honoured. That is a big accomplishment.
Congrats Adam! I hope to one day soon follow in your footsteps and also get the Platinum. I too have only completed Bloodborne to date and I hold both Bloodborne and Sekiro in high regard. I like some things about one more than I do the other, so I think I'm just happy to give them both 1st place :)
This is an amazing treat to enjoy after a long day at work, I highly anticipated this episode and love both this game and your incredible video format of platinum journeys!
Cheers. You've earned a rest.
You deserve a standing ovation after that video! 🎉 don’t know what else to say, just brilliant!
Thank you very much, buddy!
Bro this is by far one of the best videos you ever made. The editing was top notch, the music fit the game so well, and the video is entertaining from beginning to end. I started watching you around 2015-2016 and by each year your videos continue to improve. Keep up the good work.
Thank you very much. Delighted you enjoyed the video so much. I do try to improve year-to-year so am honoured you see how the videos have gotten better.
Been waiting so long for this, Adam. Keep up the great work!
I have Covid so mostly just watching RUclips today thank you for entertaining Adam.
Hope you feel better soon. Glad I can be a distraction for a bit.
Alright man. I told you to do that almost 2 years ago. Now finally. Great as always
All in good time. Glad you enjoyed the episode.
Let's Go! Loved every second of getting this platinum, Congrats Adam!
Thank you!
Always love to see the notification whenever you upload!
Sekiro is one of my favorite Platinums I have. Been working on Final Fantasy 7 Remake. I look forward to these episodes so much. Thank you.
You are more than welcome.
Loved this. I still feel like Sekiro is an underappreciated game so I always like to see someone have as much fun with it as I did. I might have to replay it soon after watching this 👍
Thank you. Definitely go for a replay :)
Incredible episode, the storytelling in these videos is unmatched. Made me interested in playing the game as someone who hasnt played soulsborne games before.
That is a huge compliment. Thank you, James.
Excellent video. Always look forward to your videos. Well done on the platinum
Glad you enjoyed the video.
Man I love Sekiro and it's great to see other ppeople play and appreciate it as well. To this day it's still among my 3 most favorite platinums, because I had to really work for it after walking away from it twice, because I just couldn't get into the combat, I just didn't get it and it frustrated me to no end, because I've gotten the platinum (I count 100% on Steam as a platinum too even if it doesn't have one) every other From Software game multiple times, like every itteration of the games that were available to me, but I just couldn't get past Genichiro at Ashina castle, but in the end perseverace paid off.
Exceptional video as always. I thought you'd struggle a lot with this game but glad to see you enjoyed it.
Thanks. Yeah, the combat clicked with me. Helps that it looks really cool.
I wish I was able to be as calm as you were while playing this game 😄 also the advice to turn down the music is pretty clever!
My calm comes from years of sucking at video games, haha.
Yeah, without music stuff gets so much less stressful.
This gotta be in my top 3 favourites videos of all time because goddam this is a good video, the wait was definitely worth it!! I thought you were going to struggle in the guardian ape fight a bit more but I guess im just not good at the game😅
I was thinking maybe you could do a series where you see the platinum trophies of subscriberd while you do this videos so the channel becomes a little bit more active while you do the next platinum journey episode. just an ideia tho
Wow, that is glowing praise. Thank you.
I don't care for looking at other peoples' trophy lists I'm afraid. Don't even look at my own. Thank you for the suggestion though. I know you are trying to help.
Congrats on the platinum! I’m still trying to get mine, I’m about 3/4 of the way there. The only trophy stopping me is gathering all the prayer beads. I’m missing one and have no clue what boss it is. Great video!
Thanks. Best of luck finding that last prayer bead!
It could be one of the ones you can find in the world? There’s a lot of them spread out in random places …
@@destinsather9757 well when I started playing it again I realized I’m missing 2 prayer beads instead of 1… so it must be around the map somewhere
Congratulations!
After I got the hang of it, I felt quite satisfied with the game and with the achievements. But it took me a good 20 hours...
Btw the purple ninja gave me a headache, until I figured out, and destroyed him.
And good to see a fellow gamer finishes and overcome the struggles this game offer!
Those purple ninjas can be tough alright.
Cheers. It was a good experience.
As much as I want to watch this for bed!!!!!! I cannot wait. Been waiting for this 🤣🤣🤣. Awesome plat bro... Can't wait to watch this in about a minute
still need to play this still, and this might’ve convinced me to. congratulations, cheers!
Definitely worth playing.
Great Platinum Journey! I'd only done this in January myself! No game has given me a sense of genuine self progression and improvement like Sekiro. It trains you to be better. It's palpable.
Hell yeah another video from Adam! MY WEEK IS COMPLETE
No better feeling than getting home from a 12 hour shift and seeing this upload, then also seeing its 46 minutes long.
You've earned a rest :)
Welcome back Adam. Nice to have yeah back.
Thanks. I've been quite active recently, haha. Check my uploads :)
What a journey and I once again enjoyed every second of it 😊
Thank you very much. I'm quite happy with how this episode turned out. Glad you enjoyed it so much.
Congrats. One of my personal proudest. Got this and Elden ring back to back
Excellent stuff, Adam! Much like you, I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.
Brilliant video, brilliant game. Cheers for the great video, can’t wait for the next one! Cheers Adam.
Thank you very much!
Great video Adam! Have to respect anyone who can play these games because I give up almost immediately lol
I was able to platnium Elden Ring but i couldn’t get past the first hour of Sekiro, lol. Adam definitely has some skill.
@@The-CoffeeMan GG on the plat. I’ve never even played Elden ring. It’s a shame as I do want to try it but I’m 98% sure I won’t like it
Thanks! I don't blame you for giving up, it can be a steep learning curve.
We all have our own strengths, Sekiro seemed to click for me. First-person shooters are my downfall, haha.
@@AdamMcDermott yet you platniumed a few of those, lol.
Always a pleasure watching you, Adam!
Cheers!
Another amazing platinum journey. Phenomenal game done justice. Thank you!!
Cheers!
Fantastic video, Adam! And well done
Ah this was a great episode. I didn’t rush as fast as usual to watch as I had less interest in the game but it actually convinced me to buy this in a year or two.
Cheers. Glad you enjoyed the episode so much.
@@AdamMcDermott glad you enjoyed the game so much, it was very clear in the vid.
One of my best games ever ❤️ great journey Adam 👏🏼
Very good indeed. Cheers!
Absolutely cannot wait for the Elden Ring platinum next year Adam. Good luck, fellow tarnished!
Had one hell of a horrible week...until i saw Adam has a new video out. Kinda helps a lot lol cheers big fella
Glad I could cheer you up :)
Adam this was one of the hardest platinums I've ever achieved! I'm glad I got through this after all that fustration!
Congratulations! Certainly a tough but satisfying challenge.
@@AdamMcDermottyes I agree with you! Have you considered trying Black Myth Wukong?? 😊
@@greekgamerguy84I have indeed. Looks like quite an interesting game.
@@AdamMcDermott yes it’s an interesting game I would love to see a platinum run for that game if you ever get the chance! I always have a drink ready to see you tackle games! 😊
@@greekgamerguy84 Haha, cheers!
I finally finished this game after starting it back in 2018 and I found it to be brutally difficult, frustrating and I began to doubt my own ability. So I took a break.
I came back to it a month ago and found a renewed sense of perseverance and patience. Failure to beat certain bosses was all part of the learning experience. Yesterday I got the Platinum and now I can watch this video without feeling bad 🙂
Congratulations on not giving up. Once the combat clicks, it is so satisfying.
Yay it's finally time! I'm about to go to sleep but when I wake up I'm going to enjoy this!!!
Can watch it over breakfast :)
This was a great video and awesome Platinum to watch u get :) Well done
I'm working on my 62th plat, then when Hogwarts comes out for PS4 gamers next month I can finally start that :D
Tho idk which house to pick
Thank you.
Best of luck with Hogwarts when you get it.
Good work as always Adam. I am currently working my way through Resident Evil remake and just have to get the two endings with Chris and the no save playthroughs done. Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart was one of the most fun experiences I have had with a ps5 game. I would also recommend Returnal. even though it's a rogue like game, I think you will enjoy the gameplay.
Thank you. Best of luck with Resident Evil.
Returnal doesn't interest me I'm afraid.
You're such a charming host for these plat journeys :D
Thank you!
I won’t be watching this for a while as I plan on playing this one day but I wanted to show my support for what I’m sure is another cracking episode
Thank you very much!
Been waiting a loooong time for this video, lol. I’m at work right now so I can’t watch but I can’t wait to get home, lol.
Not kidding,. Every time I pick up a fistful of ash, that Cornershop song pops into my head as well.
Haha, I thought I was the only person who did that.
10:55
Just like you, I fought the shinobi hunter a bit too early, prior to even unlocking the Mikiri counter.
On my first run, I died to him more than any other enemy in the entire game.
Oh my, doing the Shinobi Hunter without the Mikiri counter is damn tough.
@@AdamMcDermott it was, I Damm near quit the game than and there
Same here, took me ages and lots of deaths but got it done eventually. Pretty damn good primer for the rest of the game, actually haha
great video as per usual, adam. missed these
Thank you!
Another master class episode!
Thank you very much, Pete. That means a lot.
Quite literally the only “Souls” platinum i do not have, however, i think that is so drastically different that i do feel as though my collection is incomplete but i would like to have it so i can say i have all of them without people (idiots) saying that i would have to have the Sekiro one
Great video mate. Cant believe you robbed us of a Guardian Ape death fake out reaction though! 😂
Haha, the reaction was me just me looking at the screen perplexed. There is a reason it didn't make the final cut.
I’ve been a gamer 35 years and sekiro is without doubt my favourite game ever the satisfaction of beating the final boss for first time is unrivalled
Another banger Adam!!
Thank you very much, Josh.
Damn dude, super impressive on Sword Saint Isshin, congratulations. Sekiro is my personal favorite Fromsoftware game.
Thank you. Sekiro is my favourite FromSoftware game too.
What a Epic Video Congratulations for the Platinum 🎉
Thank you very much!
This Video was great!! Thank you Adam!😄
Thank you for watching.
Hello just letting you know a thing about mini bosses you can reset the area after killing just the enemies with the mini boss still alive if he notices you can just ran away and hide till you arent noticed then just sneak back and get your death blow guaranteed. Love the video great job and I'm currently trying to platinum sekiro as well... I just beat owl father!! That was a insane fight I died too many times but he died so I guess it evens out sorry for the long message. Again love your videos and have a great night.
Thanks for the tip. Best of luck with the rest of Sekiro.
Have a great night yourself!
I vowed myself away from Souls games as I got older since I get so angry haha, but awesome episode. Love when I see a new video of yours come up on my feed! 🥳
Yes! Been waiting for this one, favourite fromsoft game
