I like this the same as elden though Corvus is like the fantasy character I Always wanted brought to life he is an duelist fighter with shape shifting abilities making him customizable for any situation perfect for me
@@coreymitchell3058 that and lies of P, both look to be the closest to a souls game, cause so far outta all the souls likes I only really enjoyed sinner, mortal shell, and Thymesia is great so far
I definitely think the dagger plague weapon deserves some attention. After unlocking its parry/riposte version, it's a very fast, safe, effective way to kill green health. It's also cheap on energy and has a short cooldown.
Enjoying the game at the moment. An important shard farming tip is that they are a guaranteed drop from miniboss type enemies (these are the ones where the music switches to boss music), they don't respawn when killed but if you go back to the hub and return they will respawn allowing you to farm them until you get the shards required to max out the plague weapon. Side missions are especially great for this.
I bought this game as soon as it came out, 9:30pm August 17th, I was just sitting there on the ps5 playing Bloodborne until my wishlist notified me that the game was finally released, I'm so happy guys, please keep sharing cool tips and tricks for this game!
I would go for the far left talents in counter. Felt almost as tight as Sekiro at that point and helped me beat the first boss much faster. Love how you can switch talents on the fly like that. Just dodging was not doing it for me on the first main boss. Soon as I switched talents for two counter abilities, you have a larger window for a parry but it does less damage. It was worth it as there are many ways to damage enemy's in this game.
Just want to give you a thanks of appreciation. I started watching your videos with Sekiro and have relied on you many times since then. Thank you for your great work.
Great advices! But I disagree with some of the arguments presented. First, deflecting is awesome! it is satisfying and almost essential against mini-bosses and bosses, to the point where you don't need the saber at all since all armor damage is done via deflecting. For those struggling with the timing you can increase the time with the left upgrades. Second, since armor damage is done via deflecting, using the dagger plague weapon is great to deal claw damage. After that I use greatsword for good range and knockdown and bloodlust to heal. They are much better than they spear which has looong cast time and leaves you vunerable.
For bosses atleast the first one best plague weapon is the dagger as it lets you forget about claw since it does 150% damage to wounds and the cooldown is only 1 second never even ran out of energy
I found claw essential for the first boss. The boss just teleports arounds and claw just shuts that down. Boss comes in, deflect, teleports out, claw and your right on his face to attack. I found Claw followed by Saber incredibly effective against the first boss.
@@VentusLionheart there is a perk which makes the dagger into a punish after parry comes out fast and it tracks and as i said does 200% wound damage after I've figured out dagger I've barley dies its so good cause its about 4x faster then the claw and consumes no energy
The dagger is great if you master the blitz attack and how to Deflect/Parry effectively. I find the Long Claw actually pretty effective to use, so an alternative is to use Plauge Weapons to deal Wound damage and the Claw to deal HP damage.
Amazon . Guess they got an invite system my gf did it that way . I didn’t have much faith but within 2 weeks it popped up to buy a disc version with horizon west at retail price . Bout shit myself when u saw that. Worth a shot to give that a go hope this helps
This game remind me of Mortal Shell and The Surge 2, those games themselves have alot of unique ideas, looking good for couple of weeks after the release, but then fallen to the forgotten after few months. And i think this game will have the same fate, because the gameplay mechanics have nothing special. Not really a fan of any souls games, but i can see some different points, make clone souls-games can never be as good as games of fromsoftware. 1. Fromsoftware let you free of choose how your character will be from the start of the game, clone games, they forced you into a form of character background, really uncomfortable. 2. Fromsoftware let you freely explore everything around the game without actually force you to follow a guide too much like other clone games. 3. Fromsoftware's souls games give you a feeling that your character is "just" and a "real" normal human, even when your character got magics or miracles.
It definitely feels a lot like Mortal Shell in that it has a cool new twist on the combat mechanics but the rest of the game feels barebones (although I have nothing against this, sometimes I prefer a leaner focused experience). And yes the plague weapon shards/farming specific enemies also feels a lot like The Surge. It's true that no soulslike will ever reach the heights of the From Software games but I still like that there are other games in the genre.
Point #2 isn't really true. The difference in, say, Bloodborne and Mortal Shell isn't much in this regard. Hell Bloodborne lends itself to using a guide more than something like Hellpoint or The Surge 2
While I get that the Souls games made by Fromsoft are great, I see a lot of nonsense criticisms of other Souls-like. The three points listed here are completely subjective and not even necessarily good. 1. Are you referring to character creation, as in their looks, or builds? In either case, this is completely up to the player. In most Souls games your character is covered by armor so you can't see them. In the case of Sekiro, your character is a completly formed character that has a "forced background" and the game is all the better for it. Nothing here makes Souls games better than competitor games. 2. Only Elden Ring has free open world exploration. The other Souls games are excellent, but they have similar map setups as Souls-clones from other studios. After all they are trying to copy Fromsoft. As open world vs smaller maps is subjective, nothing here makes Fromsoft games better than competitor games. 3. I don't know about this, when your character is overcoming Gods, Eldritch horrors, and Dragons it can make you feel pretty awesome. In any case, feeling like "just" a "real" human is not inherently a pro or con, it depends on the player and what they prefer. Nothing here makes Souls games better than competitor games. Don't get me wrong, the Souls games are amazing and great games. I just feel like people too often put up random arbitrary reasons to praise them and shit on competitors.
What's anyone or everyone's opinion on this game would love some feedback should I play it or leave it be. I got this and steelrising I'm loving that but haven't tried this game yet
I don't know how I feel about this game. I dumped an hour into it, but sometimes feels super cheap (combat mechanics), it's VERY linear, and the camera lags a lot for 5 seconds whenever it loads a new area. It looks good on ps5...So far, it's "ok"...
I feel the same way with elden ring, and I have thymesia a try and the combat feels amazing compared to elden, elden combat feels so clunky and slow here feels responsive fast and like you are actually doing damage. Way better here than on elden
dog ive played DS 2 and hardly had issue... i can't even get through the GD tutorial in this game T_T like the feather throw either happens with a 3s delay, or happens immediately, and there's no consistency on WHEN i need to do it? the dodge either makes me phase THROUGH the enemy, or just run straight into their tiddies and guarantee they hit me. deflect hardly has ever worked for me and blocking feels impossible because the animations for attacks/critical attacks are almost impossible for me to tell. i wanna play and like this game but GD dude why is the tutorial so fking hard T_T might just get my money back
I'm not seeing the green indicator at all. I am color blind but i should be able see an indicator. I'm seriously watching videos and just fighting the same guy over and over and I have no clue what anyone is talking about with this stupid ass "green indicator" what a ridiculous problem to have here.
I've beat, Dark Souls, 2, and 3, bloodborne, and Elden Ring. So I had some skill. Nope. I can't even get passed the spear cunt next to the first boss. Like I'm honestly so fucking angry with this hard stopping me with the repetitive ass "attacking through my own attacks". The amount of health taken when they land a successful hit on me is asinine to play through and I'm nearing a blood vessel exploding. I decided to just delete the game. This is a first for me and I'm just so fucking angry rn. I'm just going to go sleep.

Elden ring scratched the itch for good RPGs. Now that I'm done with it. I'm so hyped for Thymesia and Steel Rising while I wait for Elden Ring DLC.
I like this the same as elden though Corvus is like the fantasy character I Always wanted brought to life he is an duelist fighter with shape shifting abilities making him customizable for any situation perfect for me
Definitely waiting for steel rising as well, I hope that'll be a great game too
@@coreymitchell3058 that and lies of P, both look to be the closest to a souls game, cause so far outta all the souls likes I only really enjoyed sinner, mortal shell, and Thymesia is great so far
You played code vein that’s souls like so is mortal shell and soulstice
Exactly what I've been doing. I'm making my way into Thymesia now
I definitely think the dagger plague weapon deserves some attention. After unlocking its parry/riposte version, it's a very fast, safe, effective way to kill green health. It's also cheap on energy and has a short cooldown.
Indeed! I've been using the dagger in my build.
knife and blood storm are my favorites.

which shards are we talking about here ?
@@rockym.g.3827 Weapon shards that are used to unlock and upgrade Plague Weapons.

@@ramrodbldm9876 That's actally great advice for people struggling with deflect timing.
@@ramrodbldm9876 he had some actual stuff to say unlike you
Thanks for the tips!! Will come in handy when playing the game. Love the visual effects.
Actually didn't know about this one, you got me really interested now
Just want to give you a thanks of appreciation. I started watching your videos with Sekiro and have relied on you many times since then. Thank you for your great work.
I've been waiting for this game for over a year now. Of course, Fextralife is all over it and I love it! Thanks for another great video.
thank you, just started the game, and I was not understanding the wound health system - now i do - thanks for the video

great video as always
Always great vid's man, good work!
I hope this game wont be too short. It has huge potential
It is pretty short unfortunately. Still enjoyed it.
Also did not have much enemy variety either.
Looks great 🔥🔥🔥
I just finished Black myth wukong NG+++, Am think of purchasing this game or Steelrising, Anyway recommendations

i find reckless deflect window is pretty insignificant. Better to just go precise deflect for more wound damage.
I’m enjoying it so far. Still trying to figure out that parry window 🤨
Thank you for the tutorial. This looks fun. Hopefully eventually one of these years I’ll be able to get a PS5. Lol

@@BeefGummybears I’ll have to try that. Thank you for the info.
Game is free now on ps plus!
Great video I just beat Elden ring and looking for more games to play
Thanks, I sick at these games but I can’t stop playing them either,
yesterday i bought this game 👍

This is my first soul game... And damn this hits hard man. Idk how I'll beat elden ring. Lol
elden ring is infinitely easier than this lol dont wory this is much more like sekiro
This is not a souls game. I won't say it's easy, I also started playing it recently and enjoying it thoroughly.
@@sneaky5141why would you lie like that?
What's anyone or everyone's opinion on this game would love some feedback should I play it or leave it be. I got this and steelrising I'm loving that but haven't tried this game yet
this game is awesome but its pretty short. if you liked sekiro combat you will like this
Not on PS4 kinda disappointing 😕 but I'm finally on the hunt for a PS5. In Time.
this game is fun
Not for me, but it looks like a good game
I don't know how I feel about this game. I dumped an hour into it, but sometimes feels super cheap (combat mechanics), it's VERY linear, and the camera lags a lot for 5 seconds whenever it loads a new area. It looks good on ps5...So far, it's "ok"...
You can Play already?
@@lord461 yeah, I was able to dl it at 12 a.m.

@@FiftyDemons yeah, the pacing is definitely bloodborne/sekiro, for sure.
I can’t play this game because I still have yet to own a ps5. Game looks interesting though
It on steam too
@@badgamer2129 sweet !
When does this drop for ps5
who needs claws when you have knife? also bows are stupid good.
I heard this game is disappointingly short. It was so good but didn't Stay long enough
Around 10 hours is what I heard. It is half the price of longer games though
Going forward…..Please no impossibly difficult trophies that take away from achieving a platinum trophy. Just a suggestion.
dog ive played DS 2 and hardly had issue... i can't even get through the GD tutorial in this game T_T like the feather throw either happens with a 3s delay, or happens immediately, and there's no consistency on WHEN i need to do it? the dodge either makes me phase THROUGH the enemy, or just run straight into their tiddies and guarantee they hit me. deflect hardly has ever worked for me and blocking feels impossible because the animations for attacks/critical attacks are almost impossible for me to tell. i wanna play and like this game but GD dude why is the tutorial so fking hard T_T might just get my money back
I remember this i think iron pineapple covered it before
So many cool boss are hidden in the sub quests !
Pretty fun game
Meh, the guide is alright, but the gameplay gives me pause. Deflection is really easy to master with practice. The enemies have decent telegraphing.
Fextra♥
Funny how every souls like games are better than elden ring bs.
Mortal shell
The Surge
Nioh
Hellpoint
Remnants
Now Thymesia..
I'm not seeing the green indicator at all. I am color blind but i should be able see an indicator. I'm seriously watching videos and just fighting the same guy over and over and I have no clue what anyone is talking about with this stupid ass "green indicator" what a ridiculous problem to have here.
a year late but it looks like a soul/smoke type thing getting sucked into their weapon
@@morninstar_lucifer I did figure it out eventually thanks
No more weapon guides?
